The Last Primal

800 Chapter 800

Standing right at the front of the group, Aiden was about to endure the first wave of attacks from the ancient beast's stampede head-on!

That was also the wave with the strongest aura and impact!

Before the beast stampede arrived, many disciples were already frightfully pale.

"[Reptilian] Haaaah!" Suddenly, Aiden wielded Rygintarth and strode forward in huge steps, roaring into the skies.

That mighty roar was deep and thunderous, carrying an archaic, primordial power within, causing metal to break and rocks to shatter and be crushed under its might. It was deep, bellowing, and dragged out, even drowning the howls of many remnant beasts!

At the front, the darkness was shifting and finally, monstrously tall figures appeared one after another.

They were finally about to meet!

In the face of those tall ancient remnant beasts, Tai Liu's… or perhaps more accurately, Aiden's group appeared exceptionally insignificant like ants.

However, there was a torrential aura emanating from Aiden that was on par with the aura of the beast stampede!

Aiden waved Rygintarth fiercely. Instantly, the bright pale light on the blade shone in a bright bedazzling manner, like the vibrant moon under the spotless night that radiated with a boundless blinding beam.

*Swoosh!*

There was also the sound of tides surging coming from the mighty ebony blade, rumbling like thunder with a majestic aura!

Initially, some of the disciples had already closed their eyes and had given up on resisting. They felt that their demise was just about the corner.

However, at that moment, an image of the boundless sea or mysterious energy seemed to appear in their minds. It created towering massive ethereal waves but instantly, it was cleaved into two by a peerless light beam!

This was Creation of Aiden's Void Splitting Manual!

When the elderly uncle caught sight of that, his expression changed and he exclaimed with shock.

"[Reptilian] T-this! T-this is Sword Force!"

As one of the few late stage Martial Masters, he had an immense amount of knowledge. He focused his gaze and could not help but mutter to himself apprehensively.

"[Reptilian] That sword technique… Could the rumors really be true?"

*BOOM!*

In the next instant, before the old man could ponder more on these thoughts, the beast tide clashed violently against the leading grey-robed man at the front of the group, Aiden.

Right at the front was the Scarlet Flaming Bull with its coarse, crimson skin and sharp horns. Before it even arrived, it was cut into two by the sharp beam emitted by Rygintarth!

[Creature: Ancient Scarlet Flaming Bull eliminated. The host gained 850 EXP!]

The incoming beast tide that seemed like it could flatten everything had a bloodied path cut out by Aiden's First Strike, the Creation. That slash was way too terrifying!

Not only could it clash head-on with the ancient beast's stampede, it could even split it apart!

Carrying Rygintarth, Aiden continued advancing.

His aura had already started expanding, his inner force was circulating frantically in his body and his eyes were shining brightly. An aura that was even more ferocious than the ancient remnant beasts was exuded like a massive tyrannical tide!

Seeing his heroic, brave, and fearless stance the disciples followed after him hurriedly.

Taking a deep breath of air, Tai Liu declared loudly.

"[Reptilian] Everyone, please try your best to protect yourselves. Don't let the ancient remnant beasts break our formation and don't stop in your tracks!"

Other than Aiden, his group of captains that were following closely behind him, already unleashing hell just like their Young Master, the other… more senior disciples in the group did not have secret skills as their trump cards and they were barely a threat to the ancient remnant beasts of the valley to begin with.

At the front, Aiden had been killing the ancient remnant beasts to create a path that was filled with blood and corpses.

As long as everyone could stay alive against the attacks of the ancient remnant beasts and followed behind him, they had a chance of surviving!

However, it was extremely difficult to defend against the attacks of the ancient remnant beasts even if the disciples defended with all their might. In the fog of the night, everyone's vision was reduced to a range of around ten feet.

Against ancient remnant beasts, ten feet was an almost instant distance. The moment everyone caught sight of the ancient remnant beasts, the latter would have already lunged at them and it was too late to strike with their weapons or cast any of their spiritual techniques and arts.

By then, many of them could only rely on the secret defense technique of their sect's plaques to survive the attacks before defending again.

However, most of them would be dragged away by the ancient remnant beasts, shredded and devoured in an instant.

With Aiden killing at the front, the pressure on Captain Dragha, the rest of the captains, and Juno Hian wasn't too great.

From time to time, Juno Hian's gaze would land on Aiden's back with an occasional cold glint. Murderous thoughts emerged in his scheming mind.

All of a sudden!

A Frost Leopard pounced towards him from the side. Before it closed in, Juno Hian felt a chilling intent and his limbs going cold. Death itself was lunging at him at that moment.

,m He was at a peak Martial Warrior realm disciple after all and was completely able to defend himself with his sword. However, a thought came to his mind as he suddenly crouched down, as if his legs had gone soft. Although he nearly fell down, he managed to dodge the attack of the Frost Leopard!

Initially, the right of Aiden's back was covered by Juno Hian's position.

Yet, with that sudden dodge from Juno Hian, Aiden's grey robed back was now exposed to the Frost Leopard!

This was akin to Juno Hian letting an ancient remnant beast into the formation! He was willingly allowing a beast to break their stance and allowing their strongest bastion to fall just for something as petty and pointless as his self satisfaction and revenge.

After missing, the closest target to the ancient remnant beast was Aiden. Without thinking, the beast extended its paws towards Aiden's shoulders, releasing claws that were as sharp as a set of daggers!

The Frost Leopard opened its bloodied mouth and chomped down at  Aiden's neck with a cold, murderous aura!

From the moment Juno Hian dodged till the Frost Leopard chomping towards Aiden's neck, everything happened in the blink of an eye. It was already too late by the time cultivators in the formation noticed what happened.

"[Reptilian] Ah! No!" Tai Liu's expression changed as she yelled with terror.

All the disciples were fighting to survive in this intense battle and there was no one who had the energy to help others.

Furthermore, no one could save Aiden at all given that proximity! Aiden seemed like he was oblivious to the Frost Leopard behind him as he continued to slash ahead.

However, that wasn't the case in reality.

Just as the ancient beast, the Frost Leopard's bloodied mouth was about to land on Aiden's seemingly unprotected neck, the latter's head spun around!

With a clang, it smashed against the Frost Leopard's teeth shattering them in the incredibly vicious impact.

Flashes of blood appeared. The Frost Leopard's teeth were broken and the previously ferocious creature was sent flying!

Right after, Aiden's body retreated a half-step back. Gathering his entire body's strength towards his back, he leaned backwards in a furious motion!

*BANG!*

The massive Frost Leopard was sent flying, turning into a mist of blood in midair!

Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw that. An ancient remnant beast was smashed into sludge by a mere Martial Warrior! That was impossible!

Who would have believed it if they had not seen it themselves?

With widened eyes and an agape mouth, Juno Hian was shocked in disbelief. What happened was completely different from what he had expected it to be!

'[Reptilian] N-no! This is impossible! How could this be? This doesn't make any sense!' Juno Hian's mind was in a state of chaotic mess.

Before he could resolve his doubts, Aiden suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned around.

Instantly, Juno Hian felt his heart clench as shivers ran down his body.

"[Reptilian] W-What are you doing?"

Juno Hian was flustered and his voice was quivering. He forced himself to calm down and explain.

"[Reptilian] I-I didn't do it on purpose. I just lost my footing and nearly fell down! That was how that beast managed to sneak in!"

Tai Liu and the others merely witnessed the Frost Leopard pouncing towards Aiden but they did not know the reason why.

When they heard that, everyone frowned.

There was nothing wrong with Juno Hian's explanation, but if Aiden had reacted slightly slower earlier, his neck would have been bitten by the Frost Leopard!

Aiden did not reply and merely looked calm with a hint of mockery in his eyes. His glowing golden eyes were like to stars that could judge the entire mortal realm beneath them. They were like the rulers of the heavenly firmament; no weak lies such as these could escape them!
