The Last Primal

Chapter 944 944 - Battle

However, each time he did, he would attract endless attention!

All the martial artists targeted by him could not escape death!

10 years ago, when Jorl Wuya appeared once again, he crossed a major realm and killed a Martial Grandmaster from an Upper Sect of the Martial Grandmaster ranks!

It was an extremely tragic battle that shocked the entire martial art world!

Martial Masters and Martial Grandmasters were on completely different levels.

That kill across a major realm made Jorl Wuya even more famous!

Although he was only a Martial Master, most martial artists regarded him as someone of a Martial Grandmaster level.

Nobody expected that this monster incarnate of the North Region would make a move for the Vermilion Fruit's birth.

After all, Jorl Wuya had not shown himself or fought for the past 10 years.

This fight for the Vermilion Fruit was a rare gathering of the North Region's paragons.

However, if Jorl Wuya were to arrive, the paragons of the ten upper sects, four gentry clans, and even two ancient aristocratic families could only be seen as mere children compared to him.

More than that, most of the martial artists could not imagine that there could be a Martial Master who could fight on par with Jorl Wuya!

"That monster incarnate of Holy Fire Island is truly terrifying! To think that he would still have the strength to fight against Jorl Wuya after battling countless paragons."

"Crystal Palace Sect is one of the strongest body tempering sects in the northern mainland. How did that monster incarnate of Holy Fire Island train such that he's able to stand against Jorl Wuya?"

"It's useless. Jorl Wuya hasn't shown his true strength yet and that monster incarnate of Holy Fire Island is already exhausted."

"That's right. If Jorl Wuya were to release his Martial Master phenomenon, that man is dead for sure!"

As everyone discussed, a change happened on the battlefield.

Jorl Wuya asked in a relaxed manner, "Is that all you've got?"

It was a frightening sight and all the martial artists felt their hearts skip a beat!

In an intense fight as such, one would have to maintain their full focus and wouldn't dare to be distracted and speak.

Furthermore, they were in a melee combat and it was even more dangerous – a single mistake and they could die on the spot.

But now, Jorl Wuya seemed like he was extremely relaxed!

"If that's all you've got, I'm sorry, you're going to die!"

Jorl Wuya remarked coldly, "That's because I'm only at 50% of my strength."

The crowd was in shock.

His strength was already this terrifying at 50%.

Which Martial Master could defend against his 100% in that case?

Boom!

The both of them clashed once more.

Suddenly, Aiden laughed coldly and spoke with an unchanged expression, "What? I'm only at 30% here."

He was concerned about revealing his identity and as such, there were many moves that he could not release due to his considerations – he was not bragging with nonsense.

However, those who were watching were none the wiser and would naturally not believe him.

Everyone thought that Aiden had already released his trump cards entirely after fighting against the paragons, releasing two primordial phenomenons that were destroyed and eventually using the turtle serpent collision at the end to kill Lockster Kang.

Furthermore, everyone could tell that Aiden had exhausted his spirit energy.

There was almost no spirit energy fluctuation coming from him up till this point of the battle and he was completely relying on his unparalleled bloodline and physique to fight in melee range!

"Hehe."

Jorl Wuya chuckled gently. "You've got a glib tongue. That's all there is to the monster incarnate of Holy Fire Island!"

Before his sentence was completed, Jorl Wuya had already slapped his storage bag to withdraw a long, slender jade ruler. It was sparkling and shone with a mysterious glimmer, unlike anything else in the world!

Up till this point, both of them had fought barehanded.

But now, Jorl Wuya has finally brought out a weapon!

"You should be proud that you're able to make me use a weapon to kill you!" Jorl Wuya declared proudly.

Swoosh!

The jade ruler swept through the air like a sword, causing the wind to howl with a terrifying might.

Aiden narrowed his eyes.

That jade ruler was far from simple!

His spirit perception sounded!

Without hesitating, Aiden retreated.

The jade ruler glided past his face and a burning sensation spread across his cheeks!

Quivering gently, bedazzling lights lit up one after another on the jade ruler.

Six spirit patterns, a top-grade artifact weapon!

The crowd gasped.

Top-grade artifact weapons were way too rare.

Even the successors of the ten upper sects, four gentry clans, and two ancient aristocratic families did not have them.

Although that jade ruler looked fragile, it was an indestructible top-grade artifact weapon!

It was fortunate that Aiden had managed to dodge in time. If he had continued fighting barehanded like before, his arm would have been shredded into pieces by that jade ruler!

By withdrawing his top-grade artifact weapon, Jorl Wuya gained the advantage instantly and strode forward, closing in domineeringly. Waving his jade ruler, he slashed.

A rainbow streak of light extended from the jade ruler, arriving above Aiden's head instantaneously as though it could penetrate all things in the universe.

Aiden had experienced the formidable might of top-grade artifact weapons before and did not dare to receive the attack barehanded.

He withdrew a long sword from his storage bag.

"Buzz!"

The blade trembled slightly and shone with four spirit patterns – it was a supreme-grade artifact weapon!

Aiden slashed in reverse against the rainbow light sent by the jade ruler.

Swoosh!

The sound of tides surged.

Countercurrent stance!

Clang!

The jade ruler and sword collided, filling the air with a resplendent glow as mist spread.

"Shatter!"

Jorl Wuya harrumphed coldly and the rainbow light on his jade ruler shone brightly as he pushed his blood energy.

Snap!

There was a crisp sound.

Instantly, a series of cracks rippled through the blade.

Destroyed!

A supreme-grade artifact weapon was shattered by Jorl Wuya's jade ruler directly!

Aiden retreated once more.

Pshew! Pshew! Pshew!

Against that powerful clash, Aiden's sword broke into shards before transforming into light spots that shot towards him.

Aiden's pupils constricted instantly.

The two of them were way too close!

The shards of the sword surged towards him almost immediately after the sword and jade ruler collided – there was no time to dodge at all.

Suddenly, a series of crackling sounds echoed from Aiden's body.

Under countless watchful gazes, his tall, burly body actually shrank into a meatball the size of an infant, spinning smoothly in midair.

Cling! Clang!

Instead of piercing him, the sword shards let off metallic sounds when they struck Aiden!

Aiden took a deep breath of air and his tendons and bones sounded together. In the blink of an eye, he returned to his form of the burly man.

Tears could be seen on his gray robes but there was no sign of blood.

A faint golden glow could be seen through his gray robes.

Jorl Wuya's eyes lit up as he came to a realization. "Not bad. So, you were wearing a defensive inner armor!"

He had sharp eyes and could vaguely tell that Aiden's inner armor was of a relatively high grade – there was a chance that it was a perfect-grade artifact weapon!

"The stars are truly aligned. Coincidentally, I've been looking for a defensive artifact weapon and here you are, bringing it for me."

Jorl Wuya could not help but laugh. "I've got to see just how long you can hold out!"

The moment he said that Jorl Wuya's blood energy exploded and his figure flickered. Waving his jade ruler, endless rainbow light dispersed downwards onto Aiden's head, slashing down once more!

Jorl Wuya had suppressed Aiden perfectly with his top-grade artifact weapon!

Aiden did not dare to receive the jade ruler's attack head-on and could only dodge backwards.

The jade ruler was a top-grade artifact weapon.

Given Jorl Wuya's strength, even a supreme-grade artifact weapon would be smashed into pieces by his ruler!

The only way was for Aiden to use his Blood Quencher or Coiling Dragon Seal.

However, he would not be able to conceal his identity if he summoned those two weapons.

The jade ruler shone with a resplendent rainbow light in Jorl Wuya's hands.

Even with his immensely strong physique, Aiden would not be able to endure an attack from the jade ruler and would definitely be severely injured!

He made use of the nimbleness of his movement techniques and his physique which encompassed both toughness and gentleness to dodge repeatedly.

The two of them were already moving at their maximum speeds!

For now, Aiden was still unhurt.

However, he would definitely lose if he had to continue defending and his space available to dodge was decreasing by the moment!

He had to make a decision!

At that thought, Aiden's eyes flashed viciously with a demonic glint. Glaring at the incoming jade ruler, he reached out and grabbed it.

"You must have a death wish!"

Jorl Wuya harrumphed coldly.
