The Last Primal

Chapter 889 889 - Revelations

Actually, not long after he entered Madam Dara's temporary room, Aiden had already realized that his spiritual energy was being restricted and he could not circulate it.

However, it was already too late for him to leave by then.

The power of the Blood Cloud Flower was domineering indeed!

At the Extreme Martial Knight realm, Aiden's internal energy was rich and the structure of this energy, this wild essence was far superior compared to other Martial Knight martial artists as well.

With a single thought, the seas would howl and there would even be massive waves created within his newly formed Inner Core!

But now, there was a mysterious fog shrouding his very spiritual sea.

The waters were dead without any movement.

Mighty Cain Khoren sneered, "With your spirit energy locked, all your trump cards such as that dragon conjuring secret skill and all the rest are useless!"

Sezud Nida was smug and burst into laughter. "I heard that you've got a strong physique and bloodline? But, what's the use of that? You can only run on the ground without being able to touch our clothes even! Hahaha!"

"I'm Tan Hao, a Formation Master."

Waving the long cloth he was holding, Tan Hao commented with a smile, "This is merely a trap formation and is extremely common. It can trap Martial Masters for up to five days with ease. As for Martial Knight martial artists… hehe, I don't know. Maybe a year? Ten years? Or perhaps, thirty?"

Gao Hu beamed and revealed a menacing smile, declaring loudly, "Kid, don't be afraid! I heard that you're strong in melee combat! I'll head over soon and play along with you!"

Thud!

Unknowingly, Madam Dara had struggled to get out of her bed and she fell down, and knelt in the direction of Mighty Cain Khoren, begging miserably. "Old, Mighty Master, I'm someone that's about to die. The only wish I have is for you to let him off, please…"

Madam Dara's expression was dismal as she knelt to Mighty Cain Khoren. As her jade-white forehead smashed against the ice-cold ground time and again, it was stained red before long.

The five Martial Masters were indifferent and unmoved.

"Let him off, you say?"

As though he had heard something incomparably amusing, Mighty Cain Khoren said with a cold stare. "The greatest regret of my life is not killing this little b*stard personally in that battle, and leaving with such humiliation!"

Madam Dara's body swayed and her head spun, as though she could faint at any moment without waking up again.

All of a sudden!

A firm palm held her by the arm, pulling her up from the muddy ground.

Aiden's gentle voice reverberated in her ears, calm yet firmly. "There's no need to beg them or kneel down. You do not need to ask those soon-to-be-dead anything. Just rest, my dear."

"B-but Young Master, I really didn't know. I truly didn't… I-I was the one who brought this to you…"

Turning around, Madam Dara looked at Aiden beside her and sobbed with swollen eyes.

Aiden did not look at her as he lowered his head and said, "Although our relationship has ended, there's something else I can do for you."

Aiden looked at her as he lowered his head and with the same gentle tone he said, "Do not worry my dear. Though your injuries are grave, you will not meet your end today. It might take a while, but you will be back to your old self. After all… who will bicker with Pyre?"

"What?" Madam Dara asked instinctively.

With a soft voice, he replied, "She was missing you, you know. Now she is a disciple, learning more about her own powers and working her best to get stronger so that she could stand proudly with me… and with you."

Before he finished his sentence, Madam Dara's eyes were already flowing with tears.

In that instant, she seemed to have returned to her memories from the not-so-distant past.

Back to that carefree world without any scheming and power struggles.

Madam Dara's vision blurred.

The figure before her fused together slowly with that image from her memories.

"Young Master…"

Madam Dara addressed him instinctively and her eyes shone with a glint.

She seemed to have recovered quite a bit of energy in her body as well.

These were the signs of a final respite before losing consciousness and fainting.

It was akin to the final glow of the sunset before dawn broke.

In midair, Mighty Cain Khoren and the other four had varied expressions as their gazes shimmered.

Lian Hen, Gao Hu, and Sezud Nida did not seem to realize anything.

However, Mighty Cain Khoren and Tan Hao felt something vaguely amiss the moment they caught sight of Aiden and were feeling uneasy.

Right from the beginning, Aiden was way too composed!

He didn't look like someone that had fallen into a trap! There were no signs of panic, terror, or dismay in his tone, or demeanor at all!

Mighty Cain Khoren recalled every single detail of the plan and did not notice anything amiss.

He truly could not comprehend where Aiden got his confidence from.

Raising his head slightly, Aiden looked at Mighty Cain Khoren and said indifferently, "Indeed, your plan is perfect without a flaw. Unfortunately, you didn't take something into account…"

"What?"

Mighty Cain Khoren's heart sank as he asked with a narrowed gaze.

"It's useless even if you lock my spiritual energy, all of you will have to die today!"

Before his sentence was finished, Aiden's eyes shone golden as the sun itself and his lush matte black hair swayed naturally without any wind. The Inner Core in his chest circulated slowly whilst her Primal Core was churning madly, emitting a terrifying ancient and archaic… primordial aura.

"Hmm?"

"Psst!"

Cain Khoren and the other four were shocked.

"T-this… This is impossible! Draconic Essence!"

"Not good, he's not a mortal! He was a dragon all along!"

*Crackle!*

*Pang!* *Pang!* *Pang!*

Aiden's tendons and bones sounded at the same time as his flesh expanded.

Right in front of the five of them, that body that was initially around six foot tall expanded instantly, growing to a height of more than a dozen feet, and kept on growing. He was like a towering ancient draconoid king an ancient humanoid-shaped draconic entity with a torrential killing intent!

That terrifying body was filled with golden veins that surfaced densely and it shone with an indestructible metallic luster.

Revolving around him were ferocious life-like ancient demons; a wild bovine, a rock bear, an anaconda, a sanguine ape…

His aura was absolute, as though it could rip everything apart and devour all life!

The five Martial Masters were stunned and their minds went blank.

Even with his current martial realm and his experience in the intermediate ancient battlefield challenging people on the Universal Ranking, Lian Hen was startled momentarily.

Initially, the five of them stood a hundred feet above the air and looked down at that ant-like martial artist.

But the next moment, a pair of bronze eyes appeared before the five of them, glaring coldly with a menacing aura. Every single breath caused a hurricane to howl!

What kind of monster was this?

That was the only thought in the five of their minds.

Before they could react, that monster before them grinned and revealed two rows of sinisterly sparkling teeth.

Without a second word, Aiden reached out with his massive palm and engulfed Tan Hao over the head, as though he was about to cover the entire skies.

He grabbed downwards!

Tan Hao sped away but he was a step too late at the end of the day and could not manage to get out of Aiden's reach.

"Pfft!"

Flesh and blood splattered everywhere!

Tan Hao did not even manage to make a single sound before he was minced into a fog of blood without any corpse left!

"Run!"

Gao Hu was scared out of his wits and turned to flee.

"Roar!"

Aiden was right behind Gao Hu and took a deep breath, puffing his chest.

Immediately after, he opened his mouth and let out a deafening roar!

The ancient dragon silhouette that surrounded Aiden opened their mouth as well, roaring into the skies with a terrifying might that threatened to shake the mountains and quake the earth!

"Ah!"

Caught within it, Gao Hu yelled tragically and his figure swayed.

Fresh blood started flowing down from his ears, eyes, nose, and mouth.

His face was covered with bloodied lines and his features contorted, causing his eyeballs to bulge out as he fell from the air, no longer breathing.

He was roared to death!

A Martial Master was roared to death just like that!

That single roar contained the terrifying power of the Primal Core.

Furthermore, Aiden was not the only one roaring. With the help of the seven demon kings, his roar rippled through the heavens and engulfed everything within thousands of miles!

Although the Blood Cloud Flower restricted the spirit energy in Aiden's Inner Core, it could not contain the power of the Primal Core in his chest!
