After a while, the observing cultivators finally snapped out of their shock. Their gazes towards Leo were filled with deep reverence.
In mid-air, Leo stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes deep and calm. He was not one to kill indiscriminately, but in this Cultivator’s World where the strong preyed on the weak, he could not afford to be merciful.
“We won!”
Seeing the enemies who had been suffocating them just moments ago disappear, the people from Lord’s Manor, Diamond Fortress, and Falling Blossom Palace felt a sense of relief and joy at having survived.
“Long live the Lord!”
Among them, the people of Lord’s Manor were the most ecstatic, their voices of reverence echoing between heaven and earth.
“Leo!”
“Master.”
Violet, Holden, Christian, and others gathered around.
Seraphina gazed at Leo for a moment, then sighed softly before flashing over to check on Gracie and Willow, who had been knocked to the ground.
This battle, the largest among cultivators since the founding of the Martial Dynasty, ended with a complete victory for Clearwind Town’s Lord’s Manor. From now on, there would be no more Everlasting Trade Association, Yin Shadow Gate, or Runecarver Sect in the Martial Dynasty. The name of the Lord of Clearwind Town would resound throughout the Southern Marches Realm after this battle!
After the great battle, the people of Diamond Fortress and Falling Blossom Palace stayed for two days to express their gratitude for Clearwind Town’s protection before taking their leave. Leo did not insist on them staying longer. Diamond Fortress had been attacked by Yin Shadow Gate earlier, leaving much of their sect in ruins and in urgent need of rebuilding. As for Falling Blossom Palace, both Gracie and Willow, the main and deputy palace masters, were seriously injured, and several hundred disciples were dead or wounded; they needed to return to their sect to recuperate.
At Lord’s Manor, Leo rewarded the injured cultivators with elixirs and other rewards.
Three days later, in the backyard of Lord’s Manor.
Leo, Violet, Holden, Jennifer, Alondra, Aimee, and others were gathered in the spacious backyard. Leo was holding a small Divine Dragon Cannon covered in red flame runes for a test shot. He infused spiritual power into the Divine Dragon Cannon; the red flame runes flickered as he pulled the trigger. A red flame projectile whistled out towards a tall artificial mountain in the backyard.
Boom!
The red flame projectile hit the tall artificial mountain, sweeping it with flames and instantly shattering it into ashes.
“Impressive power,” Leo praised.
“Leo, this is the latest weapon developed by our Seven Stars Sect on Earth. The power of this small Divine Dragon Cannon is equivalent to a full-strength strike from an upper-stage Spirit King.”
Leo’s eyes lit up as he nodded. When the Divine Dragon Cannon was developed by Seven Stars Sect on Earth, Leo was on Pill Sovereign Island and was unaware of it.
“Master, we also have a medium Divine Dragon Cannon equivalent to a mid-stage Spirit Saint’s full-strength strike. Would you like to test it?” Holden offered a medium Divine Dragon Cannon to Leo.
“No need for a test shot. With the Divine Dragon Cannon, our Seven Stars Sect’s combat strength will rise significantly.” Leo examined the medium Divine Dragon Cannon with a smile.
“Master, besides Primordial Spirit Mini Pill and Primordial Spirit Pill, we can now mass-produce Earth Spirit Pills. As for third-level Talismans and Formation Flags, we have made breakthrough progress and should be able to mass-produce them soon.”
“Additionally, our new project on defensive robes and armor is also under development,” Alondra reported.
“Good,” Leo nodded. The Primordial Spirit Mini Pill and Primordial Spirit Pill sold at Starfall Shop had already brought astonishing wealth to the sect. If Earth Spirit Pills, Talismans, Formation Flags, and defensive robes were sold as well, the wealth generated would be immeasurable.
“It seems it’s time to bring all disciples from Seven Stars Sect on Earth over here,” Leo said.
Hearing this, Alondra, Violet, Holden, and others were visibly excited.
“Leo, are we moving the entire sect here?” Violet asked joyfully. Since arriving in this Cultivator’s World, they had always feared being discovered by cultivators from this world and acted with extreme caution. Now they could finally walk openly as disciples of Seven Stars Sect in this Cultivator’s World.
Leo nodded with a smile, his eyes flashing with profound light. A year ago, when he arrived in this Cultivator’s World, he was only at the upper-stage Spirit King level. Now he was just half a step away from reaching the Spirit God level that cultivators dreamed of achieving. Additionally, he possessed two powerful Celestial Artifacts: Nine-Petal Ice-Soul Lotus and Nether Flame, making him stronger than most half-step Spirit God level experts. Even against a true Spirit God level expert, Leo should be able to hold his own. With such strength, he could establish a sect in the Southern Marches Realm.
“The spiritual energy on Earth is thin and not conducive to cultivation. For Seven Stars Sect to become stronger, we must establish ourselves in this Cultivator’s World,” Leo stated firmly.
Leo’s true intention was to make Seven Stars Sect one of the top superpowers in this Cultivator’s World, akin to the Frostwhisper Clan. By then, even if spatial rifts leading to Earth were discovered by spiritual cultivation experts, they would have enough strength to protect Earth. This was Atrarian’s bond with his homeland; no matter what, Earth was their first home in this unfamiliar world.
“Master, if we are establishing a sect, choosing a location for it is paramount,” Holden said.
Leo looked at Holden, Violet, and Christian and said, “Holden, Violet, Christian, I entrust you three with this task. Choose a location within Martial Dynasty with the most abundant spiritual energy as the site for Seven Stars Sect.”
Currently, there was no force within Martial Dynasty that could rival Lord’s Manor; thus Seven Stars Sect could choose any location for its sect headquarters.
“Yes, Master,” Holden and the others replied in unison with joy on their faces.
“Alondra, Jennifer, Aimee, you three are responsible for relocating our disciples from Earth. Also, consider purchasing more Timeships,” Leo instructed Alondra and her group.
“Yes, Master,” Alondra and her group nodded in response.
“Serene and Elder Noah, you two continue overseeing the expansion of Clearwind Town. It is closest to Earth’s spatial passageway and must not be compromised; it is also one of our main bases,” Leo directed Serene and Elder Noah.
“Understood!” Serene and Elder Noah replied in unison.
As Leo was giving instructions on various matters, Elder Archie from Lord’s Manor approached along the path in the backyard.
“My Lord, the Emperor of Martial Dynasty is here for a visit and is currently waiting outside,” Elder Archie reported respectfully with a bow.
Hearing that it was the Emperor of Martial Dynasty visiting made Leo raise an eyebrow slightly as he guessed at the emperor’s intentions.
“Bring His Majesty over,” Leo said.
“Yes, my Lord,” Elder Archie responded respectfully.
