Even as he spoke, black runes continued to stream from Humphrey's hands, spreading over the surface of the giant egg and attempting to penetrate the shell.
There was a look of complacency in Humphrey's ferocious eyes.
He let out a roar of laughter,
which echoed wildly throughout the space.
Austin watched the egg. It was emitting enormous amounts of energy and law power, resisting the attempts of the black runes to infiltrate it.
The fierce clash of energy between the giant egg and the probing runes caused the platform in the air to shake violently.
It was clear that the egg did not intend to surrender without a fight.
After all, the members of the chaotic sky-devouring beast race had been proud and self-respecting.
It was said that a chaotic sky-devouring beast even dared provoke a god of chaos.
Now, although the egg was besieged, it would not meekly allow itself to be devoured.
Austin inched closer, and heard indistinct sounds coming from the giant egg.
'I must stop Humphrey,' he thought.
'If I just stand by and watch him successfully devour this giant egg, there would be a sharp and immediate increase in his level of strength.
At that point, I would lose any chance I have to defeat him.'
With that, Austin immediately took action.
He focused, and launched his first attack:
the fearsome Mind Sword Skill.
Silently, a rain of invisible mind swords sliced one after another into Humphrey's body.
Austin's cultivation base of mind power was incredibly strong. Given his current power, even a governing god would be unable to withstand the attack he had unleashed using the Mind Sword Skill.
Humphrey was relaxed, all his attention on the huge egg.
He continuously used his secret skill to try to devour it. Despite the egg's resistance, he was certain he would infiltrate the egg sooner or later.
As far as Humphrey knew, there was no one else in this area except for himself and the chaotic sky-devouring beast egg. They were alone in this space.
Thus, he ignored everything around him as he concentrated on dealing with the egg.
He was entirely unaware of Austin's presence.
Every now and then he paused and let out a bark of laughter,
for he was very pleased with this turn of events.
He felt a growing sense of anticipation and excitement. Once he succeeded in devouring this giant egg, his strength would increase hundredfold, or maybe even thousandfold.
It would be extremely beneficial to his development.
He was confident that after he devoured the chaotic sky-devouring beast egg, half of his injuries would quickly heal.
Humphrey thought that, with the aid of this egg, he would be able to return to his peak state in the future.
But he was celebrating too soon.
Right at that moment, as he congratulated himself on his triumph,
he felt the sting of thousands of mind swords piercing his body.
Simultaneously, Austin flashed forward,
appearing behind Humphrey in less than a second.
Austin and his two avatars arrived at the same time.
Together, they roared,
"Go to hell!"
Their deep, rumbling voices shook the fabric of the space.
With blinding speed,
they began executing a series of moves, displaying a seemingly infinite variety of secret martial arts skills.
They used the Omnipotent Bodily Skill, the secret spiritual soul skills, the energy of swordsmanship,
the law of time, the law of space, and the law of reincarnation, among others.
This barrage of energy and laws crashed into Humphrey without warning, like a great river that battered him ceaselessly.
Austin soon switched his focus to the Reincarnation Sword Skill,
a technique composed of nine moves,
which could send time and space into chaos.
His every move was swift and terrifying.
Booms resounded in the void as Humphrey was overwhelmed by the attacks.
A massive amount of energy, laws, and sword-light swept over him before he could defend himself.
Humphrey was outraged and bewildered at the same time. He had believed he was safe alone in this empty space, and had never expected such a powerful opponent to appear out of nowhere and attack him.
Energy crackled and exploded,
as Humphrey was thrown backwards by the force of the attacks.
Humphrey let out a scream,
feeling a surge of pain in his body.
Blood gushed out from numerous wounds as his skin was sliced and pierced.
Some of the attacks cut so deep into his flesh that bone could be seen through the torn muscle.
He groaned in agony.
More and more blood spilled from his body.
