Chapter 1241: Chapter 1241 Trouble Arises_1

Time trickled by, and everyone’s gazes toward the stele began to show signs of surprise.

At this point, even the leader of the Beast Sect was looking at the head of the Demon Sect with the same astonishment, somewhat unable to understand what was happening.

One must know that even if the Demon Sect had one or two nodes destroyed, with their great power, the combined efforts of thirty thousand people could not be dealt with by just a few highly cultivated individuals. Once on alert, they could completely focus their power to defend a node. Regardless, it shouldn’t be a problem to muster a few thousand people to come out from the stone, right?

However, the current situation clearly indicated that there was a problem on the Demon Sect’s side, and no one knew exactly what had happened.

This was supposed to be the time for a massive turnout of people from the stone, yet there were scarcely any now.

Unable to sit still any longer, the leader of the Demon Sect once again summoned Aurora Thorne and the others.

"What exactly is the situation? Tell me about what happened again," he demanded.

Aurora Thorne and the others recounted the events.

After listening, several of the Demon Sect’s elders felt a heavy weight in their hearts. They didn’t know what had occurred, but they had a feeling that it was certainly the Beast Sect’s doing.

"You Beast Sect must have sent someone to sabotage us!"

The head of the Demon Sect glared furiously at the leader of the Beast Sect.

With a laugh, the leader of the Beast Sect now felt even more certain that the other side had encountered a problem. Pretending to be deep and inscrutable, he said, "I’ve always said that no one knows what the outcome will be until the very end. Did you think you were guaranteed victory? Dream on!"

Seeing the attitude of the Beast Sect’s leader, the Demon Sect’s members were even more convinced that it must have been the Beast Sect’s sabotage. They all showed unsettlement on their faces, and if this were indeed the case, the problem was much more serious. What should they do?

Looking at the massive Divine Stone, they realized there was no solution at all.

The Divine Stone was not an ordinary stone; even the mightiest experts could not destroy it. Knowing that there was a problem inside, they could do nothing but watch the Divine Stone helplessly.

As the final two hours approached, if no one came out now, there was no chance left. Everyone was convinced that there definitely was a problem.

Thirty thousand people!

The thought that the Demon Sect had thirty thousand people unable to emerge made everyone look at the Demon Sect’s members with a different gaze.

The Demon Sect’s people could no longer sit still, no longer possessing their previous composed demeanor.

On the contrary, the Beast Sect’s side was filled with a sense of surprise in their eyes. An otherwise hopeless confrontation seemed to have taken an unexpected turn.

"The Sect Leader is truly awesome!" praised Alexander Smith at this time.

"Indeed, the Sect Leader had strategies in reserve all along, never showing his hand. Who would have thought that at the final juncture, this would be the outcome. He truly is cunning and farsighted!" The elders cast admiring glances at the leader of the Beast Sect.

Seeing this expression on everyone’s face, Peter Brown chuckled as well. The leader of the Beast Sect probably had no idea what had really happened.

Of course, Peter would never reveal this secret. If the Demon Sect found out what he had done, who knows how they might retaliate. Even if those at higher levels learned that he could sabotage nodes within the Divine Stone, they would likely take action against him. It was better to keep this affair to himself and enjoy his quiet gains.

As time elapsed, the head of the Demon Sect glared at the leader of the Beast Sect and shouted loudly, "Leonardo Smith, what exactly did you do?"

The head of the Beast Sect, Leonardo Smith, laughed heartily, "Travis Jones, you thought you were so impressive with your Linked Heart Divine Consciousness Device. Now you’re taken aback, aren’t you? What happened inside, I don’t know, but I do know that this time your more than thirty thousand disciples must be trapped inside, unable to get out!"

Leonardo Smith was aware of the risks associated with this matter. Of course, he wouldn’t admit any connection to it. Besides, he had yet to figure out exactly what had transpired.

"If it wasn’t your doing, then who else could have caused this?" Travis Jones was now anxious.

"Who knows what’s going on inside the Divine Stone? Even with so many people entering, who has managed to understand what’s happening there? With so many experts inside, hasn’t your node been sabotaged? Do you think we have such experts here? If we did, our Beast Sect would have wiped you out long ago!"

As he spoke, Leonardo Smith glanced at the representatives sitting cross-legged over there and, indeed, saw them close their eyes once more.

Travis Jones also nodded to himself; there weren’t many who could sabotage a node under the protection of tens of thousands of disciples and then leave with ease. The Beast Sect simply didn’t have such experts. If not them, then who could have done this?

Those who heard the conversation nodded as well — the Beast Sect really didn’t have such experts. The person who could come and go freely must be at least of the Heavenly Sovereign Level, right?

But then, why would such experts target the Demon Sect?

Looking over at the Divine Stone again, everyone saw that there was still no large scale emergence of personnel.

"Travis Jones, the mere use of the Linked Heart Divine Consciousness Device itself has already disrupted the fairness of the Divine Sense Battle. Perhaps the experts inside also disliked that!"

With that, Leonardo Smith addressed the cross-legged representatives of the higher-ups, "Our Beast Sect requests a verdict against the Demon Sect for compromising the fairness of the battle!"

"We shall investigate the matter after the battle," said one of the cross-legged individuals, heading the group.

Luke Jones’s expression changed at this moment, "There is no such rule, we have not violated anything."

Leonardo Smith chuckled, "Whether it’s against the rules or not probably doesn’t matter now."

He then looked at the time.

Everyone also turned their attention to the displayed time. With a glance, there was only 10 minutes left. It seemed that the general outcome was almost decided.

The Beast Sect’s members began to smile; this Divine Sense Battle was indeed too perilous. If the opponent’s node had not been destroyed, no one knew what might have happened, and the chances of defeat were really quite high.

Yet, everyone was still puzzled as to who could be helping the Beast Sect. Leonardo Smith was right – the Beast Sect had no such experts. So, what was this situation exactly?

Aside from Peter Brown, no one really understood why things had turned out this way.

Of course, there were those who did understand, such as Sophia Anderson and others. They would never reveal this incident.
