The Supreme God

"Master!" the sky-devouring dog called.

Its body trembled with excitement.

"Is this young man the successor you've found for me?"

the statue asked, surveying Austin closely.

Austin gazed directly at the statue.

When their eyes met, he felt an intense, suffocating sensation, as though the entire Sea of Chaos had fallen on him.

To his relief, the pressure only lasted for an instant before it vanished.

Austin was awestruck. 'Incredible! It is so strong, '

Austin thought to himself, keeping his eyes trained on the statue.

'I couldn't even bear the power of its gaze.'

According to the sky-devouring dog, a wisp of its master's soul was left in the statue.

'Even the remnant of his soul is absolutely terrifying!

I can't imagine how powerful he was at his peak.'

Austin found himself impressed, respecting the power of the sky-devouring dog's master.

"Not bad.

Nothing outstanding, but he is enough to meet my requirements,"

a deep voice said issuing from the statue.

"I can consider accepting you as my successor, for my dog's sake.

After all, it has spent a lot of time and energy looking for a suitable successor for me,"

the statue remarked.

Austin felt slightly embarrassed by the lukewarm statements.

'It sounds like he's only willing to take me in as his disciple for the sake of his sky-devouring dog. Still, I'll take it, for it will be a good thing to have such a powerful master.

With his guidance, I will be able to make rapid progress with my cultivation, ' Austin thought.

The statue's eyes bored into his. "Do not make the mistake of thinking that being my successor will be easy.

There will be serious risks involved.

You might die at any time,"

the statue warned.

Austin swallowed, and the statue went on. "Before you, I have accepted ten disciples in total.

They were all incredibly talented, and quite famous in their own right.

However, as soon as others discovered that they were my disciples, they were in danger.
