The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Upon hearing the thoroughly-odd beast's order, the preliminary-grade divine gods of the god of darkness side and of the isolated

alien spaces fled in the direction of their stronghold, their hearts drumming, chills creeping down their spines.

Austin had sent fear racing through them like a forest fire through dry leaves.

"You're not going anywhere!" Austin roared.

With that, he bounded after them, rage burning deep inside of him.

"Go get Austin. We can't let him hurt more our men,"

the thoroughly-odd beast and the fire-disaster beast bellowed, their voice filled with anxiety.

A lot of divine gods who worked for the god of darkness side had died at Austin's hands earlier that day. The thoroughly-odd beast

had no intention of seeing more divine gods fall.

"You little bastard, don't be presumptuous!"

Several medium-grade divine gods of the god of darkness side rushed toward Austin, trying to block his way.

"Do you think you can get in my way, you weaklings?" Austin sneered at their feeble attempts, his loathing for their audacity

leaking from his every word.

He dashed forward, his body a blur, a lightning strike that was near impossible to follow. Catching the medium-grade divine gods

off guard, he changed his path, got past them, and went after those preliminary-grade divine gods who were fleeing.

At that moment, the gates of the Underworld Cosmos ripped open.

Ignoring the gates, Austin focused on hunting down his prey. They would not escape him. That, he swore.

Dark corpse miasma gushed from the gates, spreading in all directions.

Its foul stench choked the air.

Then, a crowd of people rushed from the gates.

A giant beast led them. That creature was none other than the devilish nether beast of the underworld.

A huge black coffin shot into the sky above the crowd. Its ominous form cast a long shadow.

Standing within the coffin, hands behind his back as if he were the master of the entire universe, was a man with eyes that could

pierce a person's soul; eyes to give nightmares to a nightmare.

"Austin, give that Nether Picture for Deceiving Heaven back toright now!" the man in the coffin shouted, voice as cold as a

corpse.

He stared at Austin, eyes full of killing intent.

This man was Colby of the underworld.

On the day Austin was in the middle of completing the Apotheosizing Doom, Colby distracted him with nine Nether Pictures for

Deceiving Heaven. As a result, Austin failed to break through to a divine god.

Later, Colby entrusted ten superior elders of the underworld with a Nether Picture for Deceiving Heaven so they could hunt down

Austin.

Austin killed the ten superior elders.

He also took the Nether Picture for Deceiving Heaven.

Colby had nine Nether Pictures for Deceiving Heaven, but after he lost one of them, their powers had been greatly weakened. It

was of the utmost importance to retrieve the lost Nether Picture for Deceiving Heaven. Colby's pride, his reputation, his power and

his very place in the underworld depended upon it.

The voice and sight of Colby made Austin pause.

"There you are. I've been waiting for you!" Austin said, sneering.

He thought back to his failure to complete the Apotheosizing Doom because of Colby.

For cultivators, there was one thing they hated above all else. That was interference from other people which stopped the

cultivator from reaching higher realms or breaking through the Heavenly Doom.

Even if Colby hadn't cto him, Austin would have went after Colby sooner or later. There was a debt to be paid. A debt written

in blood. A debt that demanded blood. Colby's debt. And Austin would collect.

Now that the two enemies faced each other, they wouldn't let the other go. One of them would not walk away today.

"Ha-ha! Brat, your vital energy realm is still at the Divine Realm.

Well, letguess." Colby touched his index finger to his lips and frowned, acting as if he was totally confused. He removed his

finger, and his brows shot up as if he'd just had a revelation. "It must be because you were interrupted in the middle of your last

Apotheosizing Doom that your vital energy foundation was damaged.

If you can't cure the internal injuries related to your vital energy foundation, it is almost impossible for you to turn into a divine

god.

Unless you get spriceless natural resources or cultivate for an extremely long time."

Colby smiled slyly, a twinkle in his eye.

Noticing Austin's anger, Colby burst into laughter.

"Unfortunately, you will never have such a chance to beca divine god, because | will end your life myself right now."

Colby's own killing intent rose as he regarded Austin with murder in his eyes.

Then he stamped his foot on the coffin. The coffin shot toward Austin.

"Stop bluffing! You really think you can kill me? What a joke!

But now that we've met again, | will settle accounts with you today." Austin squared his shoulders and kept his chest up, showing

he wasn't afraid.

He headed to Colby, who hurtled toward Austin while standing atop the coffin.

"Austin, be careful. He is a medium-grade divine god. You may not be his match!"

Peterson warned Austin, concern thick in his tone.

"Austin, get back. Letdeal with him and avenge you!"

Morphy desperately called out, hoping Austin would listen.

The two elders had every right to be worried that Austin would not be able to defeat Colby.

Colby was a very powerful medium-grade divine god, and he was stronger than most divine gods of his level. He was known to

practice day and night, cycling, refining, improving his cultivation, and perfecting his abilities. Few cultivators, if any, worked as

hard as Colby. And Colby had also gained a reputation for being ruthless.

A huge gap existed between Austin's and Colby's vital energy realms.

"Don't worry. | know what | am doing," Austin reassured them.

With that, he continued to stroll toward Colby, a little smile upon his face, a smile that did not reach his eyes, eyes that were twin

pools of death.

Austin attacked first, hoping to catch his opponent unawares.

He threw a purple sword at Colby. Purple sword radiances burst from the blade.

Sword aura was attached to the purple sword. The sword aura held the energy of thirteen billion sword moves.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The space around the purple sword collapsed.

"That's a chaotic magic treasure!"

many of the divine gods exclaimed, their eyes focused on Austin's purple sword.

Only artifacts like chaotic magic treasures could have such amazing power.

In the previous battles, Austin was so fast that the divine gods had ignored his purple sword. They had been enthralled by his

speed.

But now, the purple sword was on full display in all its glory and power.

"Oh my! It's so amazing to see a chaotic magic treasure!"

Many of the divine gods becthrilled, and greed filled their eyes. Many dreamed of wielding the treasure for themselves.

"Ha-ha! Very good. | didn't expect you to have a chaotic magic treasure!

What a surprise!"

Colby threw his head back and cackled.

In the next instant, he leaped off the coffin. Strong black mist swirled from his body, enveloping him like a living cloak.

He bolted forward, hand stretched out toward Austin.

The black mist trailed from Colby as he hurtled toward his target. Colby was a black streak in humanoid form, cutting a swath

through the air.

Although Colby was aware Austin was much more powerful than those of Austin's level and could take out preliminary-grade divine

gods, he didn't take Austin serious.

In Colby's mind, Austin could not be on par with him. The gap between them was great. He would show Austin what real power

was.

"Old bastard, go to hell!" Austin screamed.

Tremendous chaotic energy massed from the secret realms inside him. Austin gathered the chaotic energy on his fist, unleashing a

punch at Colby.

Both parties released infinite runes. Their energies collided. An explosion rocked the area like a massive thunderclap, a wave of air

and power blasting away upon the energies’ impact. Such was the power unleashed that it would have blown away, would have

torn apart anyone who was not a powerful cultivator.

This was a fight between opponents of immense strength.

"I can't believe that Austin dares to fight a medium-grade divine god head on."

Everyone was dumbfounded at the scene.

The chaotic void shook violently with each impact, with each clash. The effect could be felt in the air, the earth, the sea. It

encompassed the world.

Austin and Colby becblurs as they battled. One emitted a bright golden light, while the other released the black fog. The light

and the fog filled the space for up to a billion miles. Light flickered in the black fog, slicing holes in it. The black fog congealed

around the light, choking it. Back and forth the battle went, becoming a dance, a rhythm of golden light and black fog.

Bang!

Finally, a figure was flung away. The figure spat out blood.

"Austin, are you all right?"

Peterson, Morphy, and other gods of light yelled, shock filling their voices and expressions.

The figure was Austin.

Steadying himself in the void, Austin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"I'm good," he answered.

"Humph! Brat, | didn't expect your body to be so tough.

But it doesn't matter. The gjust started.

I will slowly rip you to bits,"

Colby chortled, voice dripping with hate.

Although he had the upper hand in the first round, Austin hadn't sustained serious injuries.

Austin was far stronger than Colby imagined.
