In the past, Austin had decided to avoid Humphrey by cutting down the whole Yellow Cosmos where Earth was located. He had then transferred the cosmos land into the Fallen Divine Valley.
Now, using his spiritual sense to probe the situation in the Yellow Cosmos, Austin was surprised to discover that it had changed. The overall strength level of the cosmos had increased, becoming at least a thousand times stronger than before.
Earth, in particular, seemed to have entered a very prosperous era.
On Earth, the spiritual energy was rich, and the laws of heaven and earth had progressed, becoming more and more complete and advanced.
Moreover, there were a growing number of cultivators on Earth, thousands of times more than there had been before Austin transported the Yellow Cosmos. These new cultivators flew freely across the skies of Earth, emitting powerful auras wherever they went.
"Very good!" Austin exclaimed,
grinning and nodding with satisfaction.
He was immensely pleased with how the situation had developed. When he was still living on Earth, it had been at its absolute weakest. There had been basically no spiritual energy or laws, and no living being could find a smooth cultivation environment anywhere on Earth.
Now things had changed.
Austin knew that in ancient times, Earth was a very advanced place among the three thousand big and small universes. It had been one of the core worlds with a very good foundation.
One place had stood out on Earth—the Brilliant Kingdom, where a large number of earth dragons lay dormant. Once they were activated, the possibilities were endless.
Austin waved his hand and put the entirety of the Yellow Cosmos within a human world inside his own body. Then he left the small world.
At that moment, Kevin was waiting for Austin, along with the people of the three thousand big and small universes.
The vast majority of the creatures had been carried by divine gods, because ordinary creatures did not have the ability to travel cross the void. They could only rely on the divine gods to bring them back safely.
"Austin, everyone is ready. We are waiting for your orders,"
Kevin said to Austin as soon as he arrived.
The chaotic sky-devouring beast, hundreds of primitive gifted beasts, and even the twelve zodiac animals had all joined Austin. They all planned to follow him when he went to the three thousand big and small universes.
Austin moved forward. "Let's go! The time has come for us to return to the three thousand big and small universes!" he announced. Everyone listened raptly.
As Austin spoke, his gaze slowly swept across the crowd. Then he waved his hand, turned, and began striding away. As one, the gathering of people and beasts followed after him, heading towards the three thousand big and small universes.
A moment later, they appeared in the void of the Sea of Chaos. Their arrival released an astonishing wave of energy. Wherever they went, they roared, and their auras shone like beacons.
Over the course of centuries, these creatures had lived and cultivated in the Fallen Divine Valley. The energy and laws that existed there were of the highest quality, perhaps the best in the whole Sea of Chaos.
They had cultivated in this perfect environment for hundreds of years, and most of them had made astonishing progress.
During that period of time, more and more divine gods appeared. There were so many of them by now that one could hardly count the exact number.
Now, as the people of the three thousand big and small universes appeared in the Sea of Chaos, they immediately attracted a lot of attention.
"Look!" someone shouted, pointing at the wave of powerful beings.
"There are so many incredible warriors!"
"What a fearsome army! Who the hell are they?"
"This is unexpected! When was the last time such a powerful group of people came like this to the Sea of Chaos?" And everywhere, these questions and cries were repeated.
After all, the recent era under Humphrey's rule had been marked by a regression in the strength of all the worlds and cosmoses in the Sea of Chaos. Warriors had become weaker than they had ever been before.
Yet now, an army of strong creatures of the three thousand big and small universes had shown up. They had clearly been making constant progress, growing more powerful even as everyone else declined.
Indeed, right now they were probably the most powerful group in the Sea of Chaos.
Suddenly, someone recognized them. He screamed,
"Look! They are the creatures from the three thousand big and small universes that disappeared hundreds of years ago!"
Everyone else began shouting in astonishment and disbelief. "What? It can't be! They should all be dead by now!"
"Is it really them? I thought Humphrey killed them all!"
Everyone was struck with awe and horror as they stared at the horde of enormous beasts behind Austin.
"Stop!" called Austin abruptly.
The army halted under Austin's command.
Austin stood in the void and gazed out at every cosmos and world in the Sea of Chaos.
"Hello," he said. His voice rang out over the silent assembly. "I'm Austin.
I call on all the divine gods to come forward, for I have something to tell you!"
His shout echoed out over the Sea of Chaos.
The divine gods in the Sea of Chaos heard Austin's words, and they hesitated, wondering what to do.
It was common knowledge that Austin and Humphrey were mortal enemies. If they obeyed Austin now, it would provoke Humphrey, which none of them wanted to do. It hadn't been that long since they had personally witnessed Humphrey's defeat and ignoble retreat, and he had not been seen since then.
However, Humphrey had ruled the Sea of Chaos as an all-powerful tyrant for hundreds of years, and it was not easy to stop being afraid of him. His influence had not yet been erased completely.
Humphrey's atrocities and his incredible power had left their mark on those left in the Sea of Chaos.
After all, they had not seen him die, and it was almost impossible to kill a warrior as strong as Humphrey. Maybe he was recovering right now and planning to avenge himself. No one could be sure what Humphrey planned to do in the future.
What if he returned soon?
Austin smiled. "I can sense your hesitation, and I know what you are afraid of. You don't need to worry! I assure you that Humphrey has left the Sea of Chaos.
Although he is not dead, he is seriously injured.
He will not dare to return for a long time, if he ever does at all. He knows he will face certain defeat if he tries to come back to the Sea of Chaos."
Austin sought to sound as reassuring and confident as possible, for he knew they were worried about offending Humphrey and the consequences it brought.
