"Enough!" echoed an old voice suddenly.
A huge flood dragon appeared in the distance, its aura a little aged. It appeared to be getting on in years.
"Our master ordered us to stay on this star and guard this Immortal Tribulation Tree. We are to stop and test any living creature that comes here for the tree. This is our master's order.
You two may fight if you wish. But we need to see our master's order through. So I suggest you please fight another time, when you're done here.
Business first,"
said the old flood dragon.
"That's right.
That was the order we were given and we will not have it disobeyed!"
All the other beasts nodded in agreement that they would follow this command dutifully.
The two noisy beasts immediately stopped their quarreling when the old flood dragon spoke.
A silence had now fallen over everything.
'Master? Order?' thought both Austin and the chaotic sky-devouring beast to themselves.
As it turned out, there was an incredibly powerful master somewhere who had arranged for these beasts to live here and protect the Immortal Tribulation Tree.
All of them were primitive gifted beasts and had noble bloodlines. Austin was curious as to what sort of mighty creature could be their master.
He and the chaotic sky-devouring beast exchanged glances filled with wonderment as something came to both their minds at the same time.
A god of chaos!
As far as they knew, only the god of chaos could be capable of being their master!
"Well, little guy, come on.
Let's have a good fight, shall we?"
The fire beast stood, hovering in midair above the long, narrow land. Flames burned on the surface of its body and heat waves radiated off it. Its fighting spirit was heating up too as it stared Austin down.
"As you wish," Austin replied.
He turned into a beam of light and darted towards the fire beast.
The beast made its move as well. All four of its hooves trampled on the void as it accelerated to break-neck speeds, leaving a shadow behind where it had been. With every step it seemed to enter another strange space and time. It was very deceptive and hard to keep track of its movements.
The fire beast was much faster than the previous flood dragon,
producing a deafening sonic boom as it blasted ahead at speed.
It charged ferociously towards Austin, lowering its head slightly and pointing the sharp horn at its target in front of it.
Bang!
Austin raised his blade high in the air. He used thousands of blade skills in an instant and hit the fire beast's head with a clean strike!
At the same time, he summoned a dozen Space and Time Arrays around him, keeping himself well protected in the middle of them all.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The blade in his hand was activated and emitted horrifying blade radiance and many mysterious blade laws. All this together was like an iron chain, blocking space and time off.
Austin's blade had been left behind by a god of chaos, and although he had not yet used it to its full potential, the power it displayed could not be underestimated.
"Nice blade, little guy," shouted the fire beast.
Despite this, it didn't bother dodging the attacks, continuing its rush ahead.
With a thunderous boom,
the blade in Austin's hand collided with the beast's horn in a mesmerizing clash of forces.
The fire beast was sent stumbling backwards, but Austin did not give up on his attack until he was pushed back a few hundred steps. He nodded to himself in secret, pleased with this result, even if not yet fully satisfied.
'In terms of just strength, this four legged beast certainly is more powerful than that flood dragon was.
Perhaps it depends on vicious attacks to defeat its opponents. It's got to be all out strength for it, nothing more complicated.
This should be interesting. Another formidable opponent!'
Austin thought to himself cautiously, although he was admittedly a little excited.
