The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Austin left his words suspended in the air, leaving the three spiritual souls dumbfounded.

Destroying them would be a piece of cake for Austin.

The three of them had personal issues with Austin to deal with, but by the end of it, they were still defeated.

The souls of the Sword Palace's leader and the Yaksha Palace's leader were at loss. They were desperate to have something to

trade so Austin would let them go.

They shifted their attention towards each other and thought deeply. It seemed like they were having a mental conversation as the

both of them fell into silence.

Austin's patience grew thin. He waited for them to cup with an answer, but none of them answered.

"Time's up."

Austin's voice was low and deadly, and his eyes glinted with the desire to kill.

When it cto his enemies, Austin left no room for mercy. Since they couldn't offer anything useful for him, he thought that he

would rather have them dead for good. They were nothing but a nuisance.

"l ran into a mysterious ancient relic," the soul of the Sword Palace's leader blurted out. Recognizing that Austin had the upper

hand in this situation, he suddenly interjected, as an effort to save himself. "I can tell you where you can find it.

You're going to be very interested in this ancient relic, Austin, since you're very adept when it comes to your swordsmanship."

The Sword Palace's leader had to set aside his animosity for Austin for just a few moments to liberate his soul of this unfortunate

situation. He opted to spill the details about the ancient relic.

"Is that so?" Interested, Austin lifted his head to look at him. "Tellmore about it,"

he demanded.

"This ancient relic is located in the chaotic void.

| spotted a fluctuation of the sword aura when | practiced my swords skills in there. Curious, | went there.

Then, | broke into another universe.

In there, a secret place was found where brilliant sword-lights cfrom.

| was about to explore the place.

But before | could even do so, | was cut into pieces by a beam of a sword-light, located hundreds of thousands of miles away. |

almost died in that instant.

Fortunately, my spiritual soul hid in a magic treasure forged by the genuine immortal and managed to escape.

There must be svaluable treasures in there that could be related to the mastery of swords in that particular place."

As the soul of the Sword Palace's leader finished explaining, Austin was hooked.

"You almost got killed by a beam of sword-light?"

Austin was taken aback.

After all, the Sword Palace's leader was remarkably strong.

Despite so, one beam of sword-light from this clandestine place had almost annihilated him even if it was hundreds of thousands of

miles away! This could only mean that the power that the sword-light held was indeed terrifying.

"If you letlive, I'll take you to that secret place.

With the strength that you possess, you have a good chance of surviving that place.

Besides, | have been practicing swordsmanship for years. | have also gained sinsights on sword skills.

I'm more than willing to teach you everything that | know about swordsmanship.

As long as you spare my life, | could be useful to you. What do you say, Austin?" the soul of the Sword Palace's leader offered.

He has finally realized that there was nothing more important than his own life. With that in mind, he abandoned his pride, and

begged for mercy.

"I see." Austin rubbed his chin, and furrowed his brows in deep contemplation. "But you killed hundreds of millions of creatures in

the Central World. | can't just let that go," Austin said broodingly.

Should he destroy his soul, or let him live? He was torn. He paced back and forth as he thought of a rational decision to make

things work on his favor without having any negative repercussions.

Initially, Austin planned on wiping out the soul of the Sword Palace's leader entirely. But he made quite an exciting proposition. The

ancient relic he mentioned definitely piqued Austin's interest, and he was now itching to explore it.

"How about this?" the soul of the Sword Palace's leader pronounced. He knew that Austin had no intentions of sparing his life so he

offered him a deal that would serve them both. "I will give you my spiritual soul orb. | will serve under your command from now

on!"

The soul of the Sword Palace's leader looked into Austin's eyes directly to indicate that he was earnest in his offer.

All of them acknowledged that he was a powerful cultivator. He knew that the only way for him to survive was to give Austin his

spiritual soul orb. Through this, all Austin's concerns about sparing his life would be lifted.

If Austin were to forcefully extract his spiritual soul orb, his spiritual soul would instantly explode.

"Are you really willing to give your own spiritual soul orb to me?" Austin repeated.

He had to admit that he was definitely surprised with this offer. He hadn't seen this one coming.

"Yes, | do," the soul of the Sword Palace's leader confirmed.

He gritted his teeth and balled his fists. It was unfortunate that this was the only way for him to save his soul. But if these were

different circumstances, he would never do such a thing.

At this point, however, this was the wisest course of action.

This was the only way that Austin would let him off the hook.

"Deal."

Austin let a small smile form on his lips out of triumph.

This could be truly beneficial for him. After all, the Sword Palace's leader was very strong.

As soon as both parties agreed in this arrangement, the Sword Palace's leader handed his spiritual soul orb to Austin.

Austin refined his spiritual soul orb and he immediately established a subtle connection with the spiritual soul of the Sword Palace's

leader.

He could crush the spiritual soul of the Sword Palace's leader any the pleased using his mind. With this, the leader was now at

his mercy.

"You can rebuild your body," Austin ordered.

With a wave of his hand, countless precious natural resources and high-grade divine pills floated in front of the spiritual soul of the

Sword Palace's leader.

The spiritual soul opened his mouth and absorbed everything.

As soon as he consumed all the items, he swiftly advanced into a corner of the secret room and began rebuilding his body.

Restoring his physical body was fairly easy for him since his spiritual soul remained intact.

"What about you two?"

Austin glared at the souls of the Yaksha Palace's leader and heaven crow race's chief.

"I know you wouldn't letgo easy, as well.

Just like the Sword Palace's leader, I'm also willing to pay allegiance to you and surrender my spiritual soul orb to you."

There was no hint of hesitation in the Yaksha Palace's leader's voice. He, too, was desperate to survive this ordeal. He quickly

handed his spiritual soul orb to Austin.

Austin simply nodded his head, and accepted the orb.

'He would also serve as a great asset to me, ' Austin thought. The leader of the Yaksha Palace was once heralded as one of the

greatest masters in the universe. He would also serve as a great ally.

Austin immediately refined his spiritual soul orb.

He took out another batch of treasures and pills that would be helpful in recovering his physical body.

Lastly, he turned to the spiritual soul of the heaven crow race's chief. He raised his eyebrows and waited for his response.

Unlike the other two, he had his own reservations. He was unsure of what he could offer Austin.

After all, his personal issues with Austin were not as grand as the other two leaders had.

But since he was already involved in this, he was aware that Austin wouldn't let him off the hook so easily.

"What about you?" Austin finally said.

He had a menacing smile plastered on his face.

"I'm willing to give my spiritual soul orb as well."

After a short pause, the chief eventually gave in. He realized that he had no other choice but to take the course the other two

leaders made.

Reluctantly, he handed his spiritual soul orb to Austin.

Now that Austin had obtained their spiritual soul orbs, he had now three powerful subordinates in his arsenal.

He had their spiritual soul orbs and he connected with them. He felt assured that the three of them would not do anything sinister

since their souls were at his disposal. He could easily kill them with his mind in a matter of seconds, so he was certain that they

would never think of betraying him.

An hour later, the leader of the Yaksha Palace, the leader of the Sword Palace and the chief of the heaven crow race had rebuilt

their bodies. They stepped closer to Austin.

"Don't worry. Although | am your master, | am lenient with my people.

| won't interfere too much with your lives or subject you into unnecessary public disgrace.

Also, there's no need to let others know about our new relationships.

You can go back to your own places. If | need any help, | will send you message."

Austin shifted his gaze at the three of them. He made sure that they all understood his rules.

Hearing Austin say so, they were all relieved. They held their physical bodies for a while in appreciation.

All of them were remarkable and well-known figures in the universe. They had a very high status to uphold.

If Austin really treated them like his servants and commanded them to run his errands in public, they would feel degraded and

humiliated.

Knowing that Austin was a benevolent person made their hearts wash over with relief.
