Prime Originator

Chapter 755 - Big Attraction

After hearing what the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman said, the Sky Sword Tribe's chief suddenly erupts with crazy laughter as if he had lost his mind.

However, the Sky Sword Tribe's chief did not lose his mind; he simply finds the situation ironic and shakes his head helplessly.

"I lived my whole life making wise choices! That is how I, Skyhawk, went from being a nameless person in the Sky Sword Tribe to becoming its chief! So where did it go wrong?" Chief Skyhawk muttered.

"You failed to see through one person; Young Master Leonhardt. Even this old man fails to see through him. Young Master Leonhardt is simply unfathomable."

The One-Eyed Venerable Shaman had a look of awe and respect when he mentioned Leon's name.

"To think Senior One-Eye would come to respect a young man to such a degree…" Chief Skyhawk remarked without any intention to continue the battle.

Chief Skyhawk had lost his will to fight after finding out the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman was a Half-step Battle King.

The chance of winning was zero.

At the same time, the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman smiled at the Sky Sword Tribe's chief's comment without pursuing the person's transgression.

Every Extremity-rank Battle Master killed is a considerable loss for the human side.

"You should know that a great storm will be sweeping across the Infertile Plains after news of the Celestial Water Spark drying spreads," the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman mentions.

"However, this old man believes there will be a greater storm sweeping the entire Dark Abyss Continent, and the center of that storm will be Young Master Leonhart."

"Senior One-Eye believes in the Divine Doctor that much, huh? If I remember correctly, Senior One-Eye is from the Crimsonfog Tribe while the Divine Doctor is from the Darkmoon Tribe…"

"Why does that matter? Only this old man gets to decide who this old man wants to follow; no one else gets to decide for this old man. And no one can say anything when Young Master Leonhardt unites the tribes. I believe he has what it takes to make it possible."

"I see. Senior One-Eye believes the Divine Doctor is destined for greatness… I wonder if I still have a chance to ask for forgiveness and follow such a person…" Chief Skyhawk muttered.

"That isn't for me to decide. But you should know that I have no intention of taking your life since you've lost your will to fight," the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman magnanimously said before adding, "You should go check on your tribesmen's conditions."

"Thank you for being lenient and forgiving, Senior One-Eye."

Chief Skyhawk expressed his gratitude and respect with a fist-palm salute before shooting off to pick up his scattered tribesmen.

The attitude Chief Skyhawk gave to an Extremity-rank Battle Master, and a Half-step Battle King was like the difference between heaven and earth.

The Extremity-rank Battle Master Realm was a bottleneck that stopped most warriors from progressing further.

But if warriors succeed in taking that half step beyond the Extremity-rank Battle Master Realm, they are guaranteed to become Battle Kings in the future.

However, that wasn't the sole reason for Chief Skyhawk's change in attitude.

The One-Eyed Venerable Shaman is a Half-step Battle King with a brand new core and has the potential to reach the extremity of the Battle King Realm or even become a Battle God.

Furthermore, the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman would not need to enter deep slumber like the other existing Battle Kings who are at risk of Demonic Possession.

'I find it hard to believe that a young man who looks less than 20 years of age can unify the Infertile Plains. Even if he is a genius with endless talents and abilities, he still lacks experience,' Chief Skyhawk thought.

It wasn't uncommon for geniuses with great talents to die before realizing their full potential.

'Senior One-Eye, on the other hand, has the experience. So if I can't follow the young divine doctor, I can still try to follow Senior One-Eye.'

Chief Skyhawk began calculating his next steps after his mistake.

…

Puchi!

The Redstone Tribe's chief never stood a chance against Leon, but the Redstone Tribe's chief didn't know that until it was too late.

With a single thrust of Leon's sharp hand coated in the power of darkness, he drilled right into the Redstone Tribe's chief's chest and destroyed his heart.

The Redstone Tribe's chief glanced down at the hand in his chest before coughing up a mouthful of blood and feeling weakness take over his body.

"This power… are you a demon?" the Redstone Tribe's chief weakly uttered with his remaining few breaths of life.

However, Leon didn't satisfy the Redstone Tribe's chief's curiosity.

After the Redstone Tribe's chief took his last breath, and his eyes dulled lifelessly, Leon retracted his hand and tossed the body aside.

The blood on his hand was casually erased shortly after.

"Just a little display of darkness power from the Devil Emperor's Tome of Eternal Darkness, and the person immediately assumes I am a demon," Leon muttered with a pondering look.

Leon finds it ironic that the many warriors in the Infertile Plains rely on Darkness Energy to cultivate their bodies, yet they didn't consider themselves demons.

"Back in the Divine Realm, anyone found cultivating Darkness Energy would have probably fallen under the demon label. Yet, over here, people cultivating with Darkness Energy are pointing fingers at others who also cultivate with Darkness Energy? How amusing."

Leon noticed that after he started cultivating the Devil Emperor's Tome of Eternal Darkness, he had less aversion to the topics of demons—or perhaps he was more sympathetic towards them?

"I wonder how the others are doing…"

Leon shook his head before spreading out his divine sense and shifting his attention to Aria and the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman; both appeared to be doing fine.

Nevertheless, Leon did not expect the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman to have not only finished refining his new core but also become a Half-step Battle King.

'Hm… Senior's talent shouldn't have been bad if he could reach the Extremity-rank Battle Master Realm before shattering his core…'

Leon no longer finds it surprising after giving it some thought.

A short moment later, Leon surveyed the region before he frowned at the number of people drawn towards Darlene's Spatial Phenomenon.

Some were cautiously hiding in the distance after witnessing the fate of the Redstone tribe and Dragon-Elephant Tribe, while others were still on their way.

'Isn't this number a bit too high? Where were they before for them to come now? Don't tell me that they think the Demon Emperor-level Tomb appears here?'

Leon wondered.
