Even with the newly joined Holy Maiden's assistance, Aiden still had to face eight top-notch powerhouses, eight of this martial world's best paragons all by himself.
Snowdrift Valley's Sieanna Caliphe furrowed her brows and broke out of the battle to hold off Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva. The two beauties brought their battle to a corner, fighting in a graceful and stunning manner.
Although this was the first time they joined forces, the eight paragons had chemistry in their coordination.
Sword Sect's Hart You and Reverend Jor Har joined hands to fight Aiden in melee combat.
The other six paragons kept their distance from Aiden, making use of their sects' and clans' top treasure weapons and techniques to summon a flurry of attacks as spiritual light streaked through and filled the skies.
*BANG!* BANG!*
In the next moment, Aiden slashed twice in succession, colliding heavily against the Startling Sword and the Diamond Staff.
Hart You and Reverend Jor Har shuddered, retreating half a step back.
However, Aiden made use of that rebound power to stomp on the ground before leaping backwards. His body was almost stuck to the ground as he evaded many artifact weapons and arts by a shave.
Seehto'ch Ku'gar was calm when he saw Aiden approaching him. Riding on thin air, he retreated swiftly to keep his distance.
Chaos Essence Sect's Xioran Lily's eyes flickered brightly. "This man… he is way too strong! Everyone, there's no need to fight him head-on. As long as we keep our distance, we can definitely wear him out!"
The paragons present were long prepared and they supported one another. Coupled with the fact that there were eight of them, there was naturally no way they would allow Aiden to close in.
The moment the burly man charged towards one of them, the other seven would attack to block his path forward.
Hart You and Reverend Jor Har were like cockroaches, chasing forward to embroil Aiden in battle.
The spirit mana on the battlefield was already boiling since long ago!
The eight paragons combined forces and their figures intertwined and shifted repeatedly, restricting Aiden to his position.
Even so, the waves of attacks that were produced by the eight of them were still unable to break through Aiden's defense. He was blocking everything with his blade!
As time passed by, the eight paragons felt increasingly alarmed and their killing intents intensified!
All eight of them professed internally that if they were in Aiden's position, they would not last more than ten breaths against such attacks!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven if they could defend against all the attacks, it would take too much of a toll on them.
Even Martial Masters might not be able to endure through it.
However, 15 minutes had already passed by now.
Not only was the successor of Holy Fire Island feeling no fatigue, but also the battle intent in his eyes was intensifying and his gaze shone brighter – his entire aura was on a continuous rise!
If this continued on, the outcome would be unpredictable!
It was a shocking battle.
On the battlefield, spirit light filled the skies, and the raging energy of all the attacks intertwined with the sword beam as spirit energy surged. With each collision, a blinding light would shoot forth and fill the nine heavens with a deafening boom!
There were still some martial artists who were more gutsy and remained to watch the battle beneath the Ancient One's Palace from afar.
Because they were too far away, all of them could not make out the appearances of the paragons.
However, they could still make out a mighty figure streaking through the battlefield against all odds. Although he was surrounded by eight paragons, he was not nervous in the slightest bit!
It did not matter how famous or bedazzling Sword Sect's Hart You and Purple Firmament Sect's Seehto'ch Ku'gar were prior to this. At this moment, in the face of Holy Fire Island's successor, they seemed so lackluster.
That was a true paragon!
*BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!*
Clashing sounds echoed repeatedly from the battlefield.
Despite the fact that he was fighting one against eight, Aiden was getting fiercer and he was even showing signs of turning the tides as he shrouded all eight paragons!
With his unique source of energy coming from a higher layer, the Soul Power, he had a strong physique and terrifying stamina to the residents of this world. He was confident that he could overwhelm any strong foes at the realm of Martial Knights.
He used his full strength with every strength, swinging widely like a supreme emperor that could sweep through the nine heavens with an invincible might, looking down on everything!
Even the old fogeys that were watching from outside the Ancient One's Palace were stunned, let alone the many martial artists who were watching from afar.
He was way too strong!
Apart from Aiden's terrifying strength, his stamina was limitless like a bottomless pit!
It was extremely frightening!
To think that Holy Fire Island would have produced such an amazing monster with unparalleled potential!
The Grandmasters were expressionless as they exchanged glances; all of them could make out fleeting killing intents in the other's eyes.
If this person was already producing such an invincible aura at such a young age, who could stop him in the future?
They had to murder this talent as soon as possible!
At that moment, all the old Grandmaster Guardians had the same thought.
However, they were Grandmasters after all and the moment they attacked would be the moment they died. Unless they had no other choice, they wouldn't attack recklessly.
…
On the battlefield, the eight paragons were no longer as nimble as before.
Reverend Jor Har had minor injuries, to begin with. After clashing head-on with Aiden, he triggered his internal injuries once more and he looked terrible; there was even a faint blood stench when he panted!
His internal organs were already shaken!
Aiden was equally lively with a raging fighting intent.
If the battle carried on as such, the reverend's organs would be ruptured and he would die before Aiden was even exhausted!
The other paragons were starting to look pale and panted as well.
Suddenly, Sword Sect's Hart You shouted towards the others at the side. "Think for a second heirs of the demonic factions! Only one of us can obtain the Ancient One's Palace's inheritance! Look at how strong this guy is! If you guys don't start attacking, by the time we fall, all of you from the evil sects are going to be suppressed too!"
The martial artists who were watching from afar were stunned and shocked when they heard that.
If the demonic heirs were to take part in the fight, it would mean that the paragons of both sides would be ganging up on a single martial artist of the same realm!
Even ancient emperors would not have been treated the same way!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe few fiend heirs had conflicting expressions.
However, in their opinions, Hart You's words made sense as well.
Once the paragons of the righteous sects fall, the few of them won't be a match for that person.
There was a high chance that he would be the one to obtain the Ancient One's Palace's inheritance!
Overlord Sect's Shadow Raven loved to fight to begin with. Upon encountering someone as strong as Aiden, he was naturally raring to fight and wanted to join the battlefield.
At that thought, the few young heirs were tempted but they were still hesitant.
Among them, there was only a single person who made his decision.
It was Bair Yohren, the fiend heir of Zenith Sect!
He had a feeling that the successor of Holy Fire Island definitely had something to do with that annoying gray-robed martial artist from before!
Suddenly, a roar sounded from the battlefield.
"Raging Tides!"
His words were accompanied by a deafening boom, as if a massive tide had crashed onto the shore in a terrifying manner!
In the center of the battlefield, Aiden wielded his sword and spun a circle in midair. Massive tides seemed to form everywhere his blade sliced, surging towards the eight paragons in a ferocious manner!
Sword Force!
Against the combined attacks of eight paragons from the immortal and Buddhist sects, the unprecedented pressure had finally allowed Aiden to comprehend the Raging Tides stance of the [Void Splitting Manual]!
[Creation] was the toughest saber technique to target a single martial artist with.
However, [Raging Tides] was suited for dealing with opponents in all directions!action
With that slash, raging tides were formed, roaring and threatening to drown everything, destroying the eight desolates!
At this point of the battle, Aiden burst forth with a massive counterattack and the raging tides rumbled, engulfing the eight paragons into the series of saber forces!
Instantly, all eight paragons were on the brink of danger!
"That's enough!"
Suddenly, Hart You's cold voice that was filled with killing intent could be heard from the flurry of saber forces.
"Break!"
Hollering, he slapped his storage bag on his waist and a silver circlet flew out, hovering in midair before bursting with a blinding radiance!
