The Last Primal



The Primordial Soaring Serpent spread its wings and a heatwave surged into the nine heavens as it surveyed the surroundings with scarlet eyes.

The formidable power of this phenomenon was spreading!

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Some of the flying swords and artifact weapons in midair could not handle the pressure and cracked. Their lights dimmed as they turned into fragments, scattering onto the ground.

A single glance from the Primordial Soaring Serpent caused some of the martial artists to burst into flames that engulfed them rapidly, burning them into ashes!

The might of a divine being was unstoppable!

Gulp! Gulp!

The Primordial Soaring Serpent devoured the lava in large mouthfuls and its aura turned increasingly frightening.

The scales on the serpent became brighter and shone with a blinding shade of scarlet that resembled metal plates that were heated red!

Gazing at the thousands of Martial Master phenomenons and the puny humans, the Primordial Soaring Serpent reared its head and hissed between its breaths.

Psst! Psst!

The Primordial Soaring Serpent fanned the flames with its wings and its eyes spewed fire. Opening its blood-red mouth, it spat out a stream of scorching lava!

Instantly, the void turned into a sea of flames!

The combined Martial Master phenomenons of many martial artists could only manage to hold out the Primordial Divine Turtle.

However, the descent of the Primordial Soaring Serpent broke that stalemate!

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Accompanied by loud sounds, countless Martial Master phenomenons shattered and many Martial Masters were devoured directly by the steaming lava, turning into ashes without corpses.

"Ah! Ah! Ahhhh!"

A series of tragic, shuddering wails sounded.

Although there were thousands of Martial Master phenomenons, none of them could withstand the blast of the two divine beings, the Divine Turtle and Soaring Serpent!

Even the Crystal Divine Light could not do it!

The Divine Turtle roared with rage and currents surged, raising torrential tides that engulfed all living beings!

The Soaring Serpent hissed and lava spewed, igniting a sea of flames that spanned hundreds of kilometers and incinerated all living beings!

Even the bodies of Crystal Palace Sect martial artists could not withstand the crash of the tides and the roast of the lava.

20 years later, Aiden had not only recovered his Martial Master, but the two Martial Master phenomenons that he had once trained had also resurfaced in the world as well!

All the martial artists were horrified and scurried for their lives.

Nobody noticed that although the two phenomenons behind Aiden were the same 20 years on, there were a few changes to the phenomenons themselves!

20 years ago, the Divine Turtle and Soaring Serpent phenomenons were irreconcilable; fire and water, immortal and fiend.

The two phenomena were completely distinct.

But now, there was no longer any conflict of fire and water nor was there any contention between immortal and fiend between the two phenomenons – their boundaries were blurred and fire and water were intertwined.

The heavens shattered and void currents flowed everywhere as meteors fell. A Divine Turtle stood between the world and stabilized the void currents with its limbs while holding up the heavens with its back as it roared into the skies!

The ground caved in and a volcano exploded spewing lava. The Primordial Soaring Serpent tore through the ground and devoured the lava as it descended upon the world!

The heavens collapsed and lightning flashed. The two divine beings, the Divine Turtle and Soaring Serpent, seemed like they could fuse together at any moment!

After his 20 years of dormancy at the bottom of Dragon Burial Valley, a complete transformation had happened both inside and outside of Aiden and it was not only in terms of his Inner Core and body.

It was for his Martial Master phenomenons as well!

To be precise, apart from Aiden, nobody knew what sort of Martial Master phenomenons he had trained and nobody had seen it before.

"Everyone, don't panic!"

The Crystal Palace Sect Guardian stood in midair and said loudly, "Although this little b*stard can circulate spirit energy, he is pinned to the ground by the formation and can't move at all!"

"Hmm?"

Some of the martial artists who had escaped noticed that as well and let out beguiled expressions.

"He's a demon so there's no way he can break free from the restraints of the Omnidirectional Demon Suppression Formation! Everyone, avoid his attacks, and don't fight him head-on! Once his Martial Master phenomenons are gone and his spirit energy is expended, he will be a sheep waiting to be culled!"

The words of Crystal Palace Sect's Guardian caused the eyes of the surviving martial artists to light up.

Although Aiden could release spirit art and the dragon roar, he had not left his original position from the get-go!

Everyone was escaping from the battlefield to try to get away from the two divine beings around Aiden.

Although Martial Master phenomenons were strong, they could not go too far away from the martial artists.

A cold glint flashed through Aiden's eyes as he cursed internally.

Although the Guardian was at the end of his lifespan, he was a Martial Grandmaster after all and he was truly sharp after living for close to a thousand years.

He managed to identify Aiden's weakness despite the chaotic battle.

The formation that enveloped Aiden was created with four Guardians sacrificing their lives to activate four Demon Revealing Mirrors!

It was set up to target him specifically!

As long as he had his Inner Core, he could not break free of the restraints of the Omnidirectional Demon Suppression Formation nor could he move at all!

The pressure was present all the time!

That was also the reason why Aiden had been counterattacking without moving from the spot the entire time.

It was not because he did not want to, it was because he couldn't!

It was actually simple to dispel the Omnidirectional Demon Suppression Formation.

All he had to do was destroy the formation eyes.

For this formation, the formation eyes were none other than the four Demon Revealing Mirrors on top of the four walls!

He did not require all four Demon Revealing Mirrors to be destroyed – as long as three of them were shifted, Aiden could break free with the use of Divine power from the Nigal Prayer Beads!

However, despite the simplicity of the matter, it was extremely difficult for Aiden.

That was because he couldn't move at all!

He could not even manage a simple act such as shifting his hand towards his storage bag, let alone move towards the Demon Revealing Mirrors above the walls.

This was a doomed situation!

No matter how much of a monster incarnate Aiden was, there was also a time where his strength was limited.

The martial artists in the ancient city did not have to attack him at all – all they had to do was wait for time to pass and they could exhaust him to death!

That was the main point that Crystal Palace Sect's Guardian noticed as well.

"Fufufufu!"

A cruel glint passed through the eyes of Crystal Palace Sect's Guardian as he remarked sinisterly, "Little b*stard, I'll wait here and watch you die from the suppression!"

Aiden chuckled and replied coldly with a fierce gaze, "Old dog, I'll make sure I take your life before I die!"

"Sure, let's see who lasts till the end!"

Crystal Palace Sect's Guardian nodded and sneered.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, an earthshaking dragon's roar sounded from outside the ancient city with a shuddering impact!

Instantly, a wild wind gusted, and sand flew into a storm!

When he heard that roar, Aiden's heart skipped a beat as his eyes widened with disbelief.

"Spirit tiger?"

There was nothing special about the tiger roar in the ears of ordinary martial artists.

However, Aiden undertook demonic cultivation and had spent a lot of time with the spirit tiger previously – naturally, he could tell the difference.

He had once imparted the Void Thunder Manual to the spirit tiger.

That was the reason why there was a tough electric element to the tiger roar and it was bright and resounding!

Of course, the most obvious portion was the ending of the roar where it had a coquettish note – Aiden did not know when it got into the habit of doing that.

Back in Ethereal Peak, each time Aiden heard the spirit tiger make that dirty sound, he wanted to send the latter flying with a kick!

"Elder Hon, a beast stampede is attacking us!"

A Crystal Palace Sect martial artist yelled.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The ground shook violently.

Although he was inside the ancient city, Aiden could feel everything clearly.

"Ah!"

Rearing his head, he could not help but howl into the air emotionally.
