Rebirth of Martial God

Due to the formidable force, Austin realized that the space around him was starting to solidify.

Then, after a few seconds, the space became motionless―everything was frozen!

Austin stood there, stock-still, unable to move an inch.

Mysterious space-time runes, reminiscent of colorful-snowflakes, materialized all of a sudden. It engulfed Austin like flames.

"Reverse!"

A loud shout came from afar.

Then, to Austin's surprise, time started to flow backward.

Before he could even comprehend what was going on around him, he felt his body move against his will.

His body traced the movements he did a few seconds before time halted.

Time was reversing in a hundred million mile range.

Austin had no way of avoiding this situation. He flew backwards seamlessly with each passing second.

"It worked!" dozens of governing gods closely watching Austin exclaimed.

Their faces lit up in ecstasy.

"This is one of the secret methods of my clan. This has been passed down for generations. Of course, I am certain it would work!

If we weren't dealing with someone like Austin, I wouldn't have performed it in front of you,"

the governing god who made time reverse smugly stated.

"Everyone, release all your spatial energy now! This way, we can immediately capture Austin once he gets closer to us.

The faster we get rid of him, the sooner we will be able to live in peace,"

the governing god continued.

Upon hearing this,

all the governing gods nodded their heads, and simultaneously unleashed all their powers of space and time.

Time kept reversing.

Austin's body continuously traced its previous movements as if it was following a choreographed dance. The spatial power controlled his motion.

'What is going on? It's amazing!

This could be used to make time reverse in a broad range!' Austin remarked under his breath, shock written all over his face.

He did everything in his power to move forward but to no avail―he couldn't break free!

"This is going to be a tough battle ahead,"

Austin murmured to himself as he shook his head.

He was aware that the odds were stacked against him. Defeating numerous governing gods was an almost impossible task. Still, he was unfazed.

"Ha-ha! Let's see if you can worm your way out of this one, Austin!"

"There is no escape for you!"

"We are not in the Ethereal World anymore. Let's see what you can do now!"

"You are way too arrogant for your own good, Austin. People like you are doomed to die early!"

The governing gods made sure their vic

ateful for the intervention of the five sword spirits.

'They have been too good to me,' he thought to himself.

On the other hand, the governing gods were oblivious to what was about to come their way.

"Let's end this! I don't want to waste any more time!"

"Go to hell, Austin!"

They all released an overwhelming amount of energy, one that would surely kill its receiver in one blow.

Just as they were about to rush forward and attack Austin together,

five beams of sword radiance of different colors came into view.

They moved in an astonishing speed.

Wherever the five sword radiances passed,

the space was torn apart as if it were a piece of paper.

The governing gods noticed the blinding light zooming towards Austin.

Before they could process what was about to transpire,

the sword radiance was already at Austin's side.

"What's going on?"

The governing gods who had surrounded Austin were bewildered. They had no idea what was happening.

They stood there, staring blankly at the sword radiance. Before they could even do anything about it, they had already flown away.

And much to their dismay, the sword radiance took Austin too.

All the governing gods were at a loss for words. Just like that, Austin had slipped their hands once again.

They thought that they already had him for sure. They had worked together to lock down the space, and it was impossible for anyone to fight a way out.

Unexpectedly, the five beams of sword radiance instantly came to his rescue. They vehemently cursed Austin's luck.

"It's the five sword spirits of the Divine Sword Mountain. They are behind this!"

one of the governing gods screamed in frustration.
