374 The story behind the sword (2/2)
But the answer they wanted to know the most was whether the sword attack was able to block Leonis’s foot.
“Boom!”
An explosive blast sounded as an incredulous scene happened before everyone’s eyes.
The gigantic golden sword projection tore right through Leonis’s right foot. As Leonis roared in pain, his massive body fell backwards. It was like a wall hundreds of meter tall was collapsing!
“Bang!”
A deafening boom from the impact echoed as Leonis crashed to the ground. Countless buildings were crushed as tremors were felt through the land. It was as if the audience stands bounced up as several people fell to the ground after not being able to get their footing. However, they stood as fast as possible while turning their heads in disbelief.
The black smoke in the sky had already vanished. Replacing it was a resplendent golden glow, glowing alongside the sun’s beaming rays.
The sword attack had managed to send the gigantic Leonis to the ground!
The sword attack had saved the Transcendents that were about to die under the foot of Leonis!
“Roar!”
An angry roar resounded!
Everyone’s faces changed drastically.
Leonis, in his fourth form, obviously would not be so easily defeated. The angry roar nearly tore through the eardrums of everyone!
The ground trembled once again, at an intensity higher than before.
The fallen Leonis was about to stand up once again!
“Head towards the south.”
A calm voice suddenly resounded, like a clock that sounded in the dead of the night.
The youth who had spoken suddenly walked towards the north with sword in hand.
The spectators in the audience stands were dazed for a moment before finally understanding the meaning of his sentence.
The fallen Leonis was about to stand up again. The northern side where Leonis was was a death zone like hell.
The youth who was at the greatest risk should have fled to the south, but at this moment, he was heading to the north with sword in hand.
It was because, he was leaving the safest spot to them!
“Why?”
Why was the one that nearly brought death was not the notorious Infernal King, but King Leonis they thought of as king?
Why was the person standing forward to save them not one of their Bravehearts, but the human that they had been treating with contempt?
The world’s greatest irony could not be any better than this.
However, against death, the arrogant Transcendents did not make any snide remarks about the irony. Instead, they noisily escaped.
The sword attack had managed to buy them enough time to escape!
But at this moment, the sword-wielding youth, who was walking outside of the arena, stumbled. He nearly fell to the ground but managed to stabilize his body with his sword!
Upon seeing this scene, the Transcendents focused their eyes and saw that the youth’s face was extremely pale!
They suddenly realized something.
Every form of the Transcendents enhanced the strength of the previous form by several times. Leonis, in his third form, was already extremely powerful, so it was obvious how terrifyingly mighty his fourth form was.
Then, how was the human able to use a single sword attack to send Leonis to the ground?
The sword attack he used must have made him pay a certain price!
