Chapter 753 - Rain Of Sword Intent

Leon could sense that Darlene's Spatial Phenomenon had drawn the attention of more than one group and that Aria and the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman had gone to confront. 

Given the uncertainty of the other parties' strengths, Leon couldn't be bothered wasting further time on the people in front of him. 

At the same time, they didn't take kindly to his curses either. 

"F*cking hell! When have I, the Redstone Tribe's chief, ever had someone talk to me with just disrespect? Don't you dare say that we didn't give you a chance! I want this bastard crippled—!"

Boom!

Just as the Redstone Tribe's chief finished giving his order, Leon immediately pressured them with the power of gravity and caught them off-guard. 

Even if they had powerful physical strengths that could withstand fivefold gravity, the sudden change in gravity made them miscalculate their step and tripped. 

Several Redstone Tribe's Extremity-rank Battle Masters fell. 

However, they quickly adjusted to the change in gravity and twisted their bodies, latching onto nearby tree branches before climbing back onto the treetops.

"What kind of power is this? Shamanic powers over gravity? There was such a thing?" the Redstone Tribe's chief frowned without budging an inch. 

He didn't trip like the others because he didn't make the slightest movement after giving his order, and the increased gravity didn't give him much trouble either. 

"No matter. Such an insignificant power doesn't have much effect on a Half-step Battle King like—"

"Down!"

Leon was not interested in listening and simply increased the pressure of gravity. 

Tenfold… Fifteenfold.. Twentyfold!

Leon could keep increasing the gravity pressure indefinitely with the Authority of Earth so long as his mental strength could keep up with the expenditure.

However, twentyfold gravity was enough to cause a change.

Although the Redstone Tribe's warriors endured twentyfold well with their powerful strengths, their vulnerable organs couldn't handle the pressure.

Puchi!

Several Peak-rank Battle Masters sprayed blood due to their ruptured organs, causing weakness and loss of strength as they plummeted from the trees with paled expression. 

The sight agitated the enduring Extremity-rank Battle Masters, causing their organs to rupture before they also plummeted with the rest.

Thud, thud, thud!

The Redstone Tribe's Battle Masters landed heavily on the ground before spraying a few more mouthfuls of blood, severely injured and unable to get up. 

At the same time, a few Peak-rank Battle Masters landed on bad angles, breaking their neck and killing them on the spot.

A gloomy aura hung over the Redstone Tribe's chief as he saw what happened. 

"How dare you!" the Redstone Tribe's chief exploded.

"Play stupid games, win stupid prizes; their deaths are on you for not heeding my words," Leon stated indifferently.

Although he only intended to incapacitate the Redstone Tribe's warriors, it can't be helped when accidents happen.

"Die!" 

The Redstone Tribe's chief kicked forward with explosive speed, causing the ashen treetop to crack and bend behind him.

…

Several hundred yards away from Leon's location, Aria also failed to convince a group of warriors from the Dragon-Elephant Tribe in the Central Region before engaging in battle. 

However, the Dragon-Elephant Tribe's people attacked Aria for a different reason; they lusted for her sword after noticing its divine aura.

"Hand over your sword, lass! You're not worthy of wielding such a divine weapon!" the Dragon-Elephant Tribe's chief shot after Aria with a crazed look in his eyes. 

Even among Tier-6 weapons, the Dragon-Elephant Tribe's chief had never seen an enchanted weapon with such aura in the Infertile Plains. 

It could only belong to a higher tier!

How is it acceptable that a thin girl wields such a divine weapon? It should belong to him! Only he was worthy of it!

As the Dragon-Elephant Tribe's chief chased, Aria retreated gracefully on her ice-lightning sword with a cold expression. 

'Leon wants to save humans in the Infertile Plains and unify them under the Crawford Empire, but is someone like this worth saving?' 

Aria's eyes flickered with a cold light. 

She detests selfish people who betray and backstab their own kind without hesitation to pursue their self-interest.

'Someone like this doesn't deserve to live!'

Shing!

In a single decisive move, Aria sliced off Dragon-Elephant Tribe's chief's head with her tier-7 divine sword's sword intent.

The Dragon-Elephant Tribe's chief, who didn't expect Aria to attack with such sharpness and speed, died without knowing the reason. 

But before the abyss engulfed his consciousness, the Dragon-Elephant Tribe's chief wondered why his body stopped reacting to his thoughts.

The Dragon-Elephant Tribe's Battle Masters standing on the sideline froze when they saw their tribal chief's head draw an arc in the air.

"Chief! F*ck, she killed the chief!"

"We must avenge our chief, brothers!"

The Dragon-Elephant Tribe's Battle Masters quickly jumped into action as they charged at Aria with burning fury in their eyes. 

It hadn't crossed their minds that their chief could get himself killed so carelessly.

"Be careful! Her divine weapon is very sharp and produces Sword Intent! There's no way someone young like her can comprehend Sword Intent already!" a Peak-rank Battle Master warned.

"Oh? How impressive of you to have noticed that. If only you used half that brain of yours to make wiser decisions for your tribal chief!" Aria snickered coldly.

As a Seeking Insight-level Ice-Lightning Transcendent, Aria was only close to High-rank Battle Masters in strength. 

But when she is equipped with the tier-7 divine weapon, even Early-rank Battle Kings have to be careful with her attacks, let alone Peak-rank Battle Masters.

"Cheeky b*tch!" the Peak-rank Battle Master spat before shouting, "Surround her! There's no way she can defend our attacks from every direction!" 

"Hmph!" 

Aria snorted with a cold look before swinging her tier-7 divine sword indiscriminately in all directions, sending out waves after waves of Ice-Lightning Sword Intent.

"Watch out!" the Peak-rank Battle Master cried with alarm. 

Unfortunately, his warning came too late; and even though the Dragon-Elephant Tribe's Battle Masters also saw the rain of flying sword auras, they couldn't evade all of it. 

Puchi! Puchi! 

"Arghhhh!"

The High-rank and Peak-rank Battle Masters cried after getting their limbs and body parts sliced off the flying sword auras before plunging out of the trees.

The more unfortunate Battle Master were directly killed by the sword auras, which also felled many trees and cleared out a section of the forest simultaneously.
