The Supreme God of Martial Arts

"Stop it, you bastard!"

A voice suddenly rang out.

It was laced with unmistakable fury, and bore the weight of power and authority, as if coming from a god about to mete out

punishment.

Three figures suddenly appeared in front of Austin, blocking his way.

One of them was an old man with silver hair, while the other two looked to be of middle age.

They all bore good physiques despite their age, and had a dignified air about them that quickly quieted the rampage.

They were, without a doubt, top martial artists.

"So you are Austin!" spoke the silver-haired elder. He was the chief of the Xu Clan, Skylar.

Austin cocked his head slightly to the side before giving a casual nod. "That's right."

"You dare to be so nonchalant after having killed so many man of our Xu Clan!"

The old man was gritting his teeth, his fury and resentment hanging heavily in the air.

"It's just as well that you are not denying anything. Today you will die by my hands!"

Austin remained nonplussed.

He had made his own assumptions in his head, concluding that the old man before him must be the chief of the Xu Clan.

"Of course | won't be denying that | killed the men sent by your clan.

Why should I, when | have a very good reason behind my actions?

Your people must have thought it was a brilliant idea to mess with my family.

That was more than enough reason forto obliterate your clan from the face of the world." He clasped his hands behind his back

as he finished speaking.

The old man laughed at his face. "You are one arrogant brat! We'll see if you even have the ability to do so!"

"How dare you, you little bastard!" One of the men beside Skylar spat out.

"The Xu Clan is kept under the Heavenly Mountain Sect's wing.

An affront to the Xu Clan is an affront to the Heavenly Mountain Sect!

You filthy brat, tell us which sect do you even belong to, and who is your master?

How dare you provoke the most prestigious Heavenly Mountain Sect?

Have you no sense of self-preservation?"

"Ha, he obviously has a death wish!" The other man chimed in. "No one in the Brilliant Kingdom, not even in the whole world,

would ever dare disrespect the Heavenly Mountain Sect.

You are nothing but a young pup. How can you be so shameless with your crimes?

Did your elders never teach you the basic rules?"

Both of Skylar's cahoots were looking smug as they told Austin off.

They relished in throwing their weight around, relying on the nof the Heavenly Mountain Sect to loom over whomever they

wished to intimidate.

After all, the sect was known to have harbored a good number of great masters.

Although they themselves were only ordinary elders of the Heavenly Mountain Sect, they had been enjoying the respect to and

authority of the nwherever they went.

Austin brushed off their threats with ease.

"lI don't care about your puny Heavenly Mountain Sect.

Anyone in this world who makes the mistake of harming my family is going to pay the price.

All that power and authority you throw around means nothing to me.

Since you guys have always been eagerly provoking me, | will annihilate you all as | like."

The old men laughed at him again.

"Well, this certainly is the first tI've ever heard a rotten bastard declare that he is going to exterminate the Heavenly Mountain

Sect!

He must be out of his mind!"

"Elders," Skylar said as their mirth subsided. "Let's joint hands and make sure this bastard dies here today."

In truth, he delighted in Austin's words.

Now this young man had fully and irrevocably lain insult to the Heavenly Mountain Sect.

Skylar was sure that the powerful sect would never let the offense slide, and he now had better chances at defeating Austin with

their help.

"No need for that," one of the two elders stated as he drew out a long sword. "I can handle this brat by myself."

He raised his weapon to the sky, and spiritual energy began to buzz in the air, gathering and swirling around the steel. Then the

sword began to glow from the hilt and along the blade, and at its tip a ray of green sword radiance about forty feet long whipped

out.

It danced through the air, its powerful energy hissing as it created friction. It looked like a snake sprang out of the sword, writhing

and hissing in the air.

"Elder Jayden, you seem to have mastered the Divine Radiance Skill!" Skylar and the other elder both looked surprised at their

comrade's display.

Among all of the sword skills, the Divine Radiance Skill was the most difficult to practice.

Also known as an unparalleled sword skill, it required an extremely extraordinary amounts of sword aura and sword intent from the

cultivator.

Once it was employed, it was believed that no one would be able to withstand the impact of its sword radiance, not even the gods.

"And now, you will pay for your arrogance!"

Jayden raised his sword and dealt a blow.

Immediately the whole courtyard was overwhelmed with a surging sword aura.

The men present could see a vague illusion of countless sharp swords dancing violently above them. 'Not bad." Austin was calmly

observing the events that were unfolding.

'l had not expected this. In a world where the law power is barely sufficient and where spiritual energy is constantly exhausted, it's

inconceivable for anyone to master the sword intent.

It seems the sword skill of the Heavenly Mountain Sect is really something, after all.’

"Go to hell, you bastard!" Jayden lunged at Austin as he brandished his sword.

The sword radiance emitted by the blade's trajectory tore the space apart, and energy ricocheted all over the courtyard, forcing

everyone to take a few steps back from the impact.

To Austin, however, the old man looked no different from a child waving around a stick to scare away whatever enemy was present.

As the sword descended upon him, Austin calmly raised a hand and stuck out his forefinger and thumb.

He effortlessly caught the blade between his fingers as it fell, abruptly stopping its violent momentum.

The blade trembled in his grasp for a few seconds before shattering into pieces.

Without losing a beat, Austin waved his hand, and one of the sharp shards shot out towards Jayden, planting itself unerringly

between his eyes.

The old man hadn't been able to dodge the attack. So swift was the piece of blade's flight, and so formidable was Austin's strength.

"What... This is impossible." He muttered as blood trickled down his face, glaring at Austin even as his body gave out and he

collapsed to the ground, lifeless.

"You bastard, you killed Elder Jayden!" Skylar and the other elder were both dumbstruck at this turn of events.

In terms of strength and cultivation level, Elder Jayden was without a doubt one of the greatest masters. In terms of martial arts,

he was also an excellent swordsman, given how he had managed to practice the Divine Radiance Skill. But he had been defeated

by Austin in a single move. It was unbelievable!

"I'll end you, you filthy rat!" The other elder patted his robes at the waist, and out flew a sword.

It darted towards Austin, the sword radiance it emitted hissing in the air as it sailed through.

"The Flying Swordsmanship of the Heavenly Mountain Sect!" Skylar couldn't help the fear that showed in his face.

This skill was said to be very powerful and was handed down from the ancient swordsmen of the sect.

Anyone who mastered it would be able to make their sword fly and control it with the use of their vital energy alone.

If one mastered it an ever greater level, they could even wield their flying sword and cut down their enemy's head from a thousand

miles away.

Skylar had heard much about the Flying Swordsmanship of the Heavenly Mountain Sect, but he never dreamed that he could see it

manifest before his eyes.

Even Austin was in awe of it, and was watching with secret admiration.

The Earth really did deserve to be one of the divine gods' birthplaces.

Numerous brilliant martial skills had been preserved and passed down from generation to generation.

In spite its impressiveness, though, this kind of Flying Swordsmanship couldn't hurt Austin either.

They were all wasting his time. His rage was mounting.

He shot forward and grabbed the sword as it flew, then charged toward the elder. With a single swing, he cut the elder's head off of

his shoulders.

He turned to Skylar as he flicked the blood from the blade. His control was slipping this time.

These bastards from the Xu Clan had captured his family who had done nothing to them in the first place.

Austin no longer had any qualms in killing anyone who would still dare to stand in his way.

"You... You!" Skylar blubbered, his eyes wide with fear and desperation.

It was clear to him that he was no match for Austin, and he was the only one left! He trembled where he stood. Clump. Clump.

Austin was drawing nearer step by step.

His face bore no expression, except for the sharp, cruel glint in his eyes.

For every step that he took forward, Skylar took little steps back. "Stop! Stop, you brat! Don't cany closer!"

Then out of nowhere, a handful of masters from the Xu Clan flew into the courtyard and pushed Austin's parents and brother

forward.

"Stop or your family will die!"
