Chapter 870 870 - Dead Bodies, Flying Heads

Aiden's gaze burned like a torch and he yelled. Propping the seal with his left hand while wielding his saber with his right, he strode widely towards Martial Master John Sharl with a murderous aura.

In the face of hundreds of Martial Masters, Aiden was advancing instead of retreating!

Zorun Kai and the others exchanged glances as they charged forward together with invigorated expressions, trying to relieve as much of Aiden's burden as possible.

"You must have a death wish!"

A Southern Mountains Sect martial artist wielded a long rod and burst forth with his internal energy, aiming for Aiden's head.

*Splash!*

Aiden channeled his bloodline and the sound of a gushing tide echoed.

**Swoosh!**

He did not even look at the incoming rod and slashed in reverse, meeting the attack with another attack as he released his incomparable Countercurrent stance!

The pupils of the Southern Mountains Sect martial artist constricted and his heart skipped a beat in shock.

His motions slowed down for a moment due to the effect on his mental state by the saber force.

"Pfft!"

Flashes of blood appeared.

That man was cut into two from the middle and his organs and intestines spilled out, giving off a nauseating stench.

*Pshew!*

A streak of light burst through the void and arrived instantly.

Without turning to look, Aiden raised his gigantic seal and repelled the incoming flying sword.

At the same time, he shuddered and slowed down.

Although Zorun Kai and the others held back a portion of the Martial Masters, there were still more than a hundred Martial Masters who attacked Aiden at the same time, causing swords, spirit arts and talismans to fill the skies with resplendent lights!

*Clang!* *Clang!* *Clang!*

Spinning the gigantic seal with his left hand, Aiden released the Void Splitting Manual with his hands and took on the incoming swords and spirit arts.

*Thud!* *Thud!* *Thud!*

He retreated repeatedly and his organs were immensely shaken, almost shifted out of position even!

"Pfft!"

Aiden spat out a huge mouthful of blood.

Sezud Nida roared in laughter. "Aiden, you're nothing without that secret skill from earlier!"

"Hahaha!"

Martial Master John Sharl sneered, "Even if you can kill early or mid-stage Martial Masters with your supreme artifact treasure, you are still a Martial Knight martial artist after all. There's no way you can withstand the might of late-stage or perfected Martial Masters!"

"You really think you can kill me with those pathetic skills of yours?"

Martial Master John Sharl continued laughing coldly.

Aiden was unmoved.

Martial Master John Sharl was not wrong.

Even if he was at such an astounding stage at the Martial Knight realm and had the support of the Coiling Dragon Seal, in terms of strength, he could only match against mid-stage Martial Masters at best and he wouldn't be able to deal with those at late-stage.

In that previous attack, a few perfected Martial Masters had attacked and Aiden was injured on the spot, unable to endure it.

However, Aiden was far from ordinary. His true power didn't rely on merely being a Martial Artist, but instead, on his unique heritage and origin.

Even without taking on his true draconic form, Aiden's physique and bloodline was still enough to crush all other martial artists of the same realm!

Even perfected Martial Masters would not be able to escape death if Aiden closed in on them.

He was invincible in melee combat!

If anyone else had received the injuries he took, it would definitely affect their combat strength.

However, Aiden's physique was way too strong and his regeneration capabilities were shocking.

After consuming that old mixture made of dragon flesh in the Ancient One's Palace, he attained greater mastery of his inherent ancient draconic form and was only a step away from condensing in from a dragonkin into that of a true dragon.

Within a couple of breaths, Aiden's injuries were already mostly recovered.

"AHAHAHAHA!"

Smiling, he stood up and his tendons and bones sounded at the same time. Not only did his aura not drop after getting injured, it was even getting stronger and the glint in his eyes intensified – he was like an ancient creature that wanted to devour people!

The battle on the Martial Knight battlefield had already stopped.

The Martial Knight martial artists of Blood Crow Palace and the other four major sects were scared out of their wits by Aiden's methods and did not dare to advance.

*Clang!* *Clang!*

Aiden beckoned gently and the dozens of floating, swirling blades that were streaking around the Martial Knight battlefield returned to him, hovering above his head and buzzing loudly.

"Ancient Dragons Annihilating formation! Unleash!"

Right after, the 18 flying swords gathered together with their tips pointing outwards in unison, forming a gigantic sword-shaped circular disk. 18 rays of sword qi were released like a blazing sun and was extremely dazzling!

"Kill!"

Propping the seal with his left hand, Aiden held his saber with his right and flapped his spirit wings, charging forward with the Ancient Dragons Annihilating formation above him.

*Swoosh!* *Swoosh!* *Swoosh!*

Flying swords tore through the air one after another, sharp and dense as raindrops.

Mystical arts exploded, covering the skies as they arrived.

Aiden was calm and seemed composed.

His speed, as well as his agility was enhanced far beyond the mortal realm already. His speed was unprecedented and unpredictable.

At times, he would be light as a feather and at others, he would be swift as lightning – no one could read him at all.

Shifting nimbly in the air, his tendons and bones constricted and expanded, allowing him to shock everyone by producing motions that were far from ordinary!

Like anacondas, snakes, apes and horses, Aiden keeps closing in on the distance between him and the Martial Masters.

"You… "

The late-stage Martial Master looked at Aiden who was charging at him and his eyes were widened in disbelief.

Was that even a human?

He could not imagine how a human could contort their bodies to that extent and dodge such an intense flurry of attacks while rushing over without any injury!

He no longer had the chance to think about it anymore.

*Swoosh!*

Aiden raised his saber instantly!

An azure stream of energy burst forth.

Upon his single swing, Aiden's Soul Power energy grew much richer and he could not release sword forces in succession.

That Martial Master was shocked and found himself having difficulty breathing, as though a surging wave was rushing at him. Thunder sounded inside his ears and the tide arrived almost instantly.

"Go!"

This man was a late-stage Martial Master after all and composed himself swiftly. Maneuvering his flying sword above his head, he circulated his Martial Master and spirit energy gushed out!

No matter what, the strength of a late-stage Martial Master was not something a Martial Knight martial artist could handle!

As long as he could withstand a move or two till the attacks of the others arrived, his enemy would naturally be trapped.

Aiden smiled faintly with a hint of ridicule in his eyes.

To him, the way the Martial Master changed tactics was full of flaws.

Aiden's seemingly unstoppable saber suddenly stopped and was only an inch away from the man's flying sword.

*Swash!*

Swinging his wrist, the angle of his slash changed.

Suddenly, the massive blade of Rygintarth turned extremely flexible, like ripples on the surface of water. It wrapped around the flying sword and sliced the person's throat gently.

Right after that insane toughness, it turned extremely flexible.

There was no sluggishness at all and the process was smooth as water!

That person's eyes dimmed and a gash appeared on his throat.

The next moment, his head was lopped into the air as blood gushed out in a terrifying manner like a fountain!

Melee combat was the most dangerous and one would be dead with a single misstep!

Aiden had been through countless battles in his cultivation journey and he was extremely experienced.

While the strength of late-stage and perfected Martial Masters was strong and could even injure or threaten his life, even the physique of a perfected Martial Master could not match up to him!

That was an advatage he had that could make up for his inferior strength.

As long as he closed the distance between them, even perfected Martial Masters could not escape death!

That was the logic in that statement.

After killing someone, Aiden did not have to pause at all as he used the Ancient Dragons Annihiliating formation and Coiling Dragon Seal to smash against some incoming flying swords and spirit arts from early and mid-stage Martial Masters.

At the same time, he dodged the attacks of late-stage and perfected Martial Masters, fleeing away to kill at the other side.

A Martial Master could not react in time and was closed in by Aiden who raised his Coiling Dragon Seal to smash down on the former's head violently!

"Pfft!"

The person's head was smashed and his entire body ripped into pieces with fresh blood flowing everywhere.

He died on the spot.
