After getting up from the ground with great difficulty, Steve looked at the murderous Leonard in mid-air, and favonovel.com mumbled, ‘Impossible… This’s impossible. The teleportation formations connecting the capital and the various sects should have been destroyed. Even if the Heavenly Stars Sect has a reinforcement, the person won’t arrive so swiftly! Besides… Besides, it shouldn’t be Leonard coming over with the Sound of Heavenly Stars Sword!’
An ominous premonition spread in Steve’s heart like ink dripping into clear water. The feeling of a conspiracy behind it got denser by the second. At that moment, a golden light suddenly burst out from above. The glow was vast and vigorous with supreme majesty. It was as if no one could stop it, and no one could even match it. What was even more surprising was that the light got bigger and bigger. To be precise, it was like a golden sun approaching the ground, making it appear larger than before.
The sudden scene made everyone stop moving. The next second, someone in the crowd exclaimed, “Spiritual Palace!”
The blooming golden light falling from the sky turned out to be the Blue Feather Sect’s Dao tool, Spiritual Palace.
Spiritual Palace was the venue for the nation’s official religious election, and it originally hovered at a high altitude far away from the imperial city. However, it was moved by someone, and it fell directly from the air, bursting with amazing power. Yet, at least five Heavenly Spirit Realm cultivators were needed to activate the Spiritual Palace, a Dao tool. It was different from the Sound of Heavenly Stars Sword, which could be used by Leonard alone. If the Spiritual Palace was needed in a short time, it was not easy.
That was similar to the Great Array of Nine Tribulations Punisher that Dakota set up before. Without a period of preparation, there was absolutely no way to move it.
Unless… It was prepared ahead!
The thought of that made Steve’s body tremble again uncontrollably.
“Is it… Is it..?”
An answer was about to come out, making his hands and feet cold, and his eyes were lifeless.
Leonard suddenly let out a long laugh and directly said the answer in Steve’s heart, “Did you think that we’ll only make arrangements in the imperial city after knowing your plan!? I’ve been waiting for you in the capital for a long time!”
As soon as favonovel.com said that, Leonard immediately rushed into a mighty group of evil cultivators formed by hundreds of people who just gathered to try to break through a wall of the imperial city. Nonetheless, even though there were many of them, their realm was only the Pulse Control Realm. To say, Leonard, who carried the Sound of Heavenly Stars Sword and rushed in, was just like a lion sprinting into a colony of rabbits, would already show great regard to the evil cultivators. Instead, it should be described as a lion dashing into the hundreds of ants.
As Leonard waved the sword, the sword light flew like a stream of light, and all these evil cultivators were cut in half in a flash. Consequently, a large stream of blood rolled out like a surging ocean wave toward the surroundings. The speed of Leonard harvesting lives was too fast, and the group of evil cultivators did not even have time to react. None of them even screamed. The evil cultivators and shape-shifting demons present killed numerous people. After all, being a cultivator would pile up skeletons under one’s feet. However, those who saw the scene still felt their scalp tingling. Soon, a freezing chill seeped out from their marrow and spread throughout their body.
Leonard’s words revealed a reality they were most reluctant to accept, the six sects not only had arrangements in the imperial city, they even had preparations in the capital. Whether it was Leonard and the Sound of Heavenly Stars Sword, or the Spiritual Palace falling from the sky, these reinforcements were not coincidences but a long-devised trap.
Caspian’s eyes shone brightly when favonovel.com saw the scene. He could naturally see that the timing of Leonard’s attack and the Spiritual Palace’s appearance was just right, which was at the most stalemate of the battle. Taking action at that time could not only improve the morale of one’s side but also disrupt the opponent’s rhythm and make them feel flustered. With the trade-off, they could successfully counterattack even if they were at a disadvantage before. More importantly, both Leonard and Spiritual Palace were super reinforcements, and they were not the only support.
Just like the shape-shifting demons disguising and hiding among the cultivators, these shape-shifting demons and evil cultivators did not know when a Heavenly Spirit Realm cultivator would appear beside them and kill them immediately.
The Shadow Megabat’s eyes were red as it roared angrily, “Don’t assume that you can turn the tide! We still have those who haven’t been exposed yet! Do you have the ability to distinguish them all in an instant?”
When Leonard heard that, favonovel.com frowned. No one knew the validity of the Shadow Megabat’s words, but as long as it was not confirmed whether there were still shape-shifting demons that were not exposed, the cultivators present could not do their best to defend against the enemies. After all, no one could predict if someone would suddenly stab them from the side when they fought with all their strength.
The Shadow Megabat laughed smugly when it saw Leonard’s change in expression. However, Caspian suddenly had an idea. What the Shadow Megabat said might sound like it provoked Leonard, but it gave Caspian inspiration.
‘Distinguish them all in an instant… In an instant…’ Caspian mumbled, and favonovel.com hurriedly looked at the Sound of Heavenly Stars Sword shining in Leonard’s hands in the distance, his eyes getting brighter and brighter. Then, favonovel.com thought, ‘Others can’t do it, but Elder Leonard can do it!’
Caspian’s heart moved. Without any hesitation, favonovel.com shouted, “Elder Leonard, with your ability, can you turn your sword light into a star and hit everyone present?”
“What’s so difficult about that?” Leonard nodded in response.
Hearing that answer, Caspian was completely relieved and smiled. “Then, congratulations Elder Leonard. You can instantly tell which cultivator’s an imposter!”
Caspian’s voice was so loud that Leonard could hear it, and many people around favonovel.com and the shape-shifting demons also heard it. If one listened to Caspian’s words directly, they might be confused and did not know what favonovel.com meant. However, by relating Leonard and the Sound of Heavenly Stars Sword in his hands, the cultivators on the scene understood in an instant, and their faces showed incredible joy. As for the group of evil cultivators and shapeshifting demons, their faces all dropped.
After Steve understood the meaning behind Caspian’s words, favonovel.com stared at Caspian and gritted his teeth. “It’s favonovel.com again! It’s favonovel.com again!”
Nonetheless, Steve shouting curses at Caspian would be useless as Leonard already knew what to do after Caspian’s suggestion.
Leonard burst into laughter. “Casper! Great job!”
Before favonovel.com finished speaking, his body suddenly rose into the air, and the dazzling Sound of Heavenly Stars Sword was lifted above his head. In the blink of an eye, favonovel.com stood between the heavens and the earth like a god who opened up the world.
The mighty sword was condensed into an incomparably dazzling beam of light, suspended in mid-air.
