Who would have known that the fifteen law powers could create such an unprecedented level of destruction once their harmony was disturbed?

Nevertheless, Leon didn't find it surprising to accept after giving it some thought.

After all, the fourteen law powers within the dark energy thread were already bound to their limits. Once the harmony in their binding force was disrupted, it was like trying to fuse all fourteen law powers while containing them forcefully.

The failed fusion of so many law powers would naturally have dire consequences. That being said, it was still something that could be weaponized. 

Nevertheless, Leon couldn't imagine how much greater the level of destruction would have been if he had pumped any more power into the attack.

Gulp!

Chief Ironshield, Chief Sar-Rakshi, Chief Sul-Dahki, and the elite warriors of the Divine Tortoise Tribe all swallowed hard on their saliva. 

The suction force almost lifted some of them off their feet and pulled them into the spherical black cloud of chaotic energy. 

If that happened, they would have died without a doubt. 

"T-this is the strength of the Lord? T-that was so horrifying…!" Chief Sar-Rakshi commented with shock, awe, and fear before he added nervously, "But I suppose a Hegemon has to possess this much power…"

Whoever had rebellious thoughts against Hegemon Leonhardt could have their entire tribe erased with the snap of a finger.

Chief Sar-Rakshi and Chief Sul-Dahki were utterly convinced that Leon was stronger than Nightingale. They didn't believe anyone could survive being hit by such destructive power.

It was fortunate that they had such a powerful person as their Lord and not their enemy. 

After all, Chief Sar-Rakshi and Chief Sul-Dahki wouldn't be able to sleep in peace knowing their enemy could hurl one of those dark energy spears and end everything in an instance.

"Your might is unparalleled, my Lord!" 

Chief Ironshield and everyone else dropped to their knees and lowered their heads out of respect and fear after Leon returned to the hill. Even Rainshine similarly lowered her head in worship.

Leon smiled ruefully at everyone's reaction. 

If his position hadn't been cemented in their hearts before, it was definitely cemented after what they had just witnessed.

…

Meanwhile, on the eastern side of the crater, the warriors on the battlefront jointly led by the Battle God Palace and Holy Sunfire Tribe all felt the sudden earthquake. 

"C-chief! Did you feel that powerful tremor just now?" a warrior of the Holy Sunfire Tribe asked. 

"I would be a fool if I didn't feel such a powerful shaking," Chief Whiteflame solemnly replied while gazing into the distant western direction with narrowed eyes. 

"The source of the earthquake most likely came from the crater—No, the other side of the crater!" 

After Chief Whiteflame quickly determined the source of the earthquake, he quickly urged his people, "Hurry up and finish off these creatures! We will head over to the western side to check on the situation once we are done here!"

"Yes, Chief!" 

The warriors of the Holy Sunfire Tribe quickly charged at the Whitebone Fiends with their fiery Soul Weapons and attacked with greater ferocity.

The Holy Sunfire Tribe was well-known for making fire-attribute Soul Weapons capable of igniting with strong flames.

Although the additional fire attribute doesn't necessarily increase the quality of the Soul Weapon itself, the Holy Sunfire Tribe's fire-attribute Soul Weapons had certainly shown their strength in the battle against the Whitebone Fiends.

…

"Palace Master, it seems like Chief Whiteflame is preparing to lead his people away after finishing off the creatures in this area. Should we follow them?" A Low-rank Battle King from the Battle God Palace asked.

However, Supreme Elder Ragnir—or rather, it was Palace Master Ragnir now, shook his head.

"No, we will not follow them. If it weren't because these creatures posed a great threat to our borders, we wouldn't even be here," Palace Master Ragnir stated. 

There was only a short distance between the enormous crater and Steelpeak Mountains, where the Battle God Palace was situated. 

"Once we are done here, we will immediately return to Steelpeak Mountains and fortify our defenses. There are too many forces here. If they all decide to join forces and launch a surprise attack on our Battle God Palace, we will not be able to resist them."

"Understood, Palace Master," the Battle God Palace's warriors replied obediently. 

All the warriors present were Palace Master Ragnir's most loyal subordinates even before he ascended the throne and became the Palace Master of the Battle God Palace.

Nevertheless, they could not help but cast their gaze to the west. They did not like the fact that they would remain oblivious to whatever was happening on the western side of the crater. 

"Of course, we won't be investigating with our main force, but that doesn't mean we can ignore whatever is happening in the west. We will send scouts to investigate," Palace Master Ragnir stated. 

"Our options are limited until our other forces return from their campaign in the Eastern Region. It would be best if they could finish conquering the eastern tribes in the next three days."

"Given the elites of our Battle God Palace had been sent out to complete the task, I believe it is only a matter of time, Palace Master," a Mid-rank Battle King reassured. 

"Hmm…" 

Palace Master Ragnir silently acknowledged the Mid-rank Battle King's statement even though there weren't any sources to back it up.

Nevertheless, after a few moments, Palace Master Ragnir frowned and asked, "Has the little runt been caught yet?" 

"My deepest apologies, Palace Master," the warrior in charge of capturing Young Master Zion lowered his head fearfully.

"We've scoured the entire Steelpeak Mountains, but we still haven't found the Third Palace Lord's youngest son. However, our leads did suggest that Young Master Zion had already fled from Steelpeak Mountains." 

"Furthermore, there's a high chance that the Holy Sunfire Tribe had captured him," the warrior added. 

"Captured by the Holy Sunfire Tribe, huh?" Palace Master Ragnir frowned deeply before saying, "It will be troublesome if the Holy Sunfire Tribe learns what happened within the Battle God Palace."

"After we return to the palace, have some scouts sent out to investigate the Holy Sunfire Tribe. Report back once any new leads on the little brat are found."

"Yes, Palace Master!"
