"In that case, you can just stay here," Austin said to the gnome and the Eight Stone Saints.
"Don't worry. If you encounter any danger, contact the elder immediately.
Relax, everybody. I will definitely return to see you again in the future,"
Austin added with a smile.
The mind power and law of life of the wood puppet race were so astounding that he couldn't discard the idea of learning them. He would definitely come back for them.
"Well, you'd better leave now.
You are getting more and more talkative. Don't worry about us."
The gnome had grown a little impatient, so he waved goodbye to Austin at once.
Austin just smiled. He knew the gnome so well that he didn't feel offended at all despite the gnome's seemingly rude behavior.
"Austin, don't worry about us. We have been in this supreme universe for more than a hundred years, so we are very familiar with it.
Besides, with the two elders who will take care of us, nothing will happen to us for sure."
The Eight Stone Saints also assured Austin one after another.
"Okay, then. I'm leaving now. Take care of yourselves."
Austin nodded at them and turned around to leave.
"Let's get out of here," he said to the beast.
The beast nodded and waved its huge claw.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A rumbling noise was heard when a tremendous spatial teleportation power appeared out of the blue. It immediately shrouded Austin and the beast all over.
The next moment,
all they could hear was the constant whirring of the wind.
In the blink of an eye, Austin and the beast disappeared from this universe.
They were already in a different place a few seconds later.
"We have gone out,"
said the beast.
When Austin opened his eyes, he found out that he had returned and was standing in front of the entrance of the palace.
Another beast was crouching outside the gate.
Apparently, they were now back inside the Divine Tomb.
"Well, what can you say about the supreme universe? How did you feel when you were in there?"
asked the other beast to Austin with a meaningful smile.
Austin understood that the two beasts must have known what he had gone through in the supreme universe.
"Sirs, I have a question to ask,"
Austin said as he looked at the two beasts.
"Ask then,"
said one beast with a nod.
"When I was in the supreme universe, I saw the maternal tree of the wood puppet race and the supreme grandmaster of the face race. They both possess terrifying strength.
I was no match for them at all.
I believe that no governing god in the universe can compete with them.
But as far as I know, they are not gods of chaos.
What are they?"
Austin said. His voice was full of curiosity.
Since the two beasts had already known what had happened to him in the supreme universe, Austin had no reason to hide this whole thing from them.
"Since you're asking,
we will give you the answer.
You are right. They are not gods of chaos.
When it comes to their strength, they should be viewed as governing gods.
However, they have cultivated for a long time compared to the other governing gods.
The truth is, they have been trying to become gods of chaos.
They have even gotten a slim chance of achieving that goal once. But unfortunately, they failed in the end for some reason.
So you can just treat them
as governing gods.
They might be the strongest ones among the governing gods,"
the beast patiently explained to Austin.
"Oh, I see.
Now I know that they are the most powerful ones among the governing gods,"
Austin said as he nodded. Finally, his question was answered.
For a long time, he had thought that he was the strongest among all the governing gods. But the truth that was revealed by the beasts to him just now taught him a lesson.
"Young man, I know you have become very powerful now.
But the cultivation of martial arts is an endless path. I'm afraid that you still have a long way to go before you reach that ultimate stage.
At least you now know that you are not the strongest among the governing gods,"
the other beast said with a playful smile. The two of them seemed to have guessed what was in Austin's mind.
"Thank you for your advice, sirs,"
