The Last Primal

844 Chapter 844

A resolute intent flickered through Hart You's eyes as he turned to flee!

Heh!"

Aiden sneered coldly and caught up to Hart You with a few huge strides. He extended his right hand and punched heavily towards the latter's back!

*BOOM!*

A gigantic fist that resembled a large golden meteor hurled down from the skies. Instantly, ethereal energy exploded with a resounding bang in a terrifying manner!

Hart You caught sight of it from the side of his eyes and was terrified.

If he was struck by that, he wouldn't survive even if he had ten lives!

"ESCAPE!"

Keeping his cool in the situation, Hart You shouted softly as his mana within him surged out rampantly.

Like an unsheathed sword, he flashed and turned into a streak of bedazzling colorless light, fleeing into the distance. His speed had already crossed the limits!

This was a secret escape skill of the Sword Sect that was similar to the [Blood Escape] used by Bair Yohren back in the Metal Tree Groove but lasted for a shorter time.

Naturally, the side effects were much less as well.

The gigantic ethereal fist above was about to descend. However, Hart You's sudden speed burst made it such that the seal was about to miss!

Hart You was delighted.

He could already see the Guardian Elders charging over. As long as he could withstand another few breaths of time, the situation would change entirely!

At that moment, the sound of a bowstring being pulled sounded in Hart You's ears.

*PANG!* *PANG!* *PANG!*

He turned slightly and looked towards his back.

However, the sight of what was coming scared him out of his wits!

The terrifying monster, this strange burly man from the Holy Fire Island; Aiden was right behind him, shifting like a shadow as his eyes shone with a sinister, almost demonic glint to it. With a surging killing intent, the former's muscles resounded and his arm expanded multiple inches under the intense stretching!

Just what kind of monster was this burly man, Hart You cried out inwardly.

It looked nothing like an arm, but instead the trunk of an ancient tree… or perhaps the massive forelimb of something primordial! Tearing through the firmament, it seemed like it could smash the stars and destroy the void as it caught up to Hart You and slammed down heavily!

There was nowhere to escape!

In the blink of an eye, Hart You dug out another shiny silver circlet from his storage bag and twisted his body, pushing it fiercely towards the incoming fist.

*BOOM!*

A deafening bang that shook the heavens and earth sounded!

As though he was struck by lightning, the sounds of bones cracking could be heard coming from Hart You's entire arm.

*POOF!*

He spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying, his entire face palely yellow.

Although he managed to hang onto his life with the use of a high grade artifact weapon, he fainted on the spot and laid motionlessly on the ground in bad condition.

By now, the paragons of the world's top factions were either dead, injured, or have escaped. Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva was the only one standing not far away watching everything in utter astonishment.

She finally understood why that burly man showed absolutely no fear, nor hesitation when everyone turned against him. She understood how he didn't mind that his secret, his homeland has been found out.

After this battle, there was a high chance that he would offend the entire martial world.

Disregarding those that were severely injured and crippled, there were seven paragons who already died in his hands!

At that moment, Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva did not know that with Malefic Demons Clan's Yang Zahn who died in the Fog Valley outside Ugburg City, there were actually total of not seven, not eight but nine paragons who died in Aiden's hands!

Once his identity was exposed, there was a high chance he would be hunted by the experts of all the strongest, most powerful sects!

Although the world was huge, there wasn't a place where he was absolutely safe.

Of course, right now, the most important thing for Aiden to consider was how he was going to survive!

Meanwhile, the Guardian Elders had already arrived beneath the Ancient One's Palace.

Among them, Sword Sect and Snowdrift Sect's Guardian Elders took their respective successors and left the battlefield first to try and heal them.

However, five Guardian Elders filled with hatred and murderous, killing intents and exuded terrifying auras had already surrounded Aiden!

They were from Purple Firmament Sect, Clear Wind Temple, Illusion Fiend Cult, Chaos Essence Sect and Formless Monastery.

Since their paragons were already dead, they had no other choice but to make a move and kill Aiden!

"Hahaha! Your embarrassment, your utter shame has turned into anger?"

Aiden laughed and surveyed his surroundings with mocking eyes. "Since they were no match for me one on one, they came at me together. After they were defeated, even their Guardian Elders are the same weak pathetic mongrels and are joining forces. Ahahaha… that's all there is to the three so-called great factions!"

"Y-You! Little b*stard of Holy Fire Island, your provocations mean nothing to us. You are still going to die."

Purple Firmament Sect's Guardian Elder shook in rage initially but quickly controlled himself and retained his calm and unmoved look.

"Heh!"

Aiden sneered, "Old a*shole, you think way too highly of yourself! I merely wanted to see how shameless the martial artists of the Purple Firmament Sect were!"

"B*stard, since you're not from our race, and are nothing but an evil fiend, you are our common enemy!"

Clear Wind Temple's Guardian Elder waved the horsetail whip in his hands and hollered.

Another gray-robed Guardian Elder said grimly.

"Young man, you have no one but your stubbornness to blame for your plight today. As the saying goes: a tall tree attracts strong winds, that has always been the case throughout history."

"Hehehe!"

Illusion Fiend Cult's Guardian Elder laughed sinisterly. "You guys from the righteous sects are truly hypocritical, always finding all sorts of excuses for your evil actions! I will let you understand today that the reason why we're joining hands is to murder you because you are talented!"

"Huh? Murder me? You?"

Aiden took a deep breath of air and his full powered aura exploded. Despite the fact that he was facing five Guardian Elders, his aura climbed once more as he exclaimed.

"Let's see if you guys have what it takes!"

He was looking down on these five world-shaking powerhouses at the Martial Grandmaster realm as a 'mere' Martial Knight realm martial artist!

Regardless of the outcome of the battle, his words alone were enough to set the martial artists watching from afar in shock with racing hearts!

At that moment, all the paragons seemed absolutely inferior!

*BANG!* *BOOM!* *BOOM!*

Right then, a sudden sound came from within the Ancient One's Palace that caused everyone's hearts to skip a beat.

Everyone subconsciously looked up.

A gigantic rift appeared at the center of the Ancient One's Palace. It was pitch-black, mysteriously dark and let out waves of terrifying might!

The entrance to the Ancient One's Palace had appeared!

This meant that the Ancient One's Palace has already silently acknowledged someone as a successor!

"Attack!"

The five Guardian Elders shouted and attacked together with a tacit understanding.

None of them could sit by and watch Aiden enter the Ancient One's Palace to receive the inheritance.

They had to kill him right here!

If the successor of the Holy Fire Island were to die, the Ancient One's Palace would either disappear or pick a new successor.

There was no way the Ancient One's Palace would leave its inheritance to a corpse.

"Die!"

Purple Firmament Sect's Guardian Elder roared and waved his sleeves, causing the endless purple energy that surrounded him to condense into a gigantic sword that shot towards Aiden.

The purple sword tore through the air and created a gigantic ravine on the ground, causing the earth to toss over and dust to fly everywhere!

Aiden had already reached some minor success and mastery in his body techniques and with all the absorbed life essences throughout his life constantly empowered and reinforced the strength as well as the sturdiness of his physique.

He was also at the late stage Martial Knight rank realm.

Be it the righteous or the so called 'evil', demonic techniques, he had not reached their potential limits and there was still room for improvements on all fronts.

Unless he would let go of all inhibitions and release all the shackles in his soul, he still might have a shot at victory against a single old fogey.

However, there was no way he could win if all five of them attacked at the same time!

He had to endure through it.

At this life and death moment, Aiden's powers were already channeled to their limits and his bloodline surged while his muscles and bones rang together.

Vicious, terrifying cold wind blew around him as his energy soared to its peak, creating a translucent, but still barely noticeable shroud of energy around his figure.

The vague silhouette of an unknown ancient beast emerged behind him rapidly growing like a gigantic shadow above the heavenly firmament, looking down at the mortal world.

"Roar!"

Taking a deep breath of air, Aiden puffed his chest and paused for a moment before letting out an earthshaking roar in the direction of Purple Firmament Sect's Guardian Elder!

The ancient creature surrounding him roared at the same time.

The voids shook, contorting the entire space itself!

Aiden was like a fierce creature, a hungry predator lunging at his prey!

In the blink of an eye, the world changed!
