Chapter 943 943 - Fearsome Powerhouse

Immediately, she shuddered and her eyes shone with disbelief.

"Young Mistress... Norel, how have you been?"

The handsome man smiled gently without retreating or evading. When he saw that mythical beast speeding over, he welcomed it instead!

Under countless watchful stares, the handsome man extended his jade-white palm and raised it, pressing down gently on the void before him.

The mythical beast was moving at such a fast speed that it looked like a streak of light. However, it came to a stop immediately!

Aiden could clearly notice the mythical beast shivering slightly.

That pure-blooded ferocious beast was in fear!

Demon beasts had extremely sharp senses towards danger.

The reason why the mythical beast reacted as such was because it sensed an immense threat coming from the handsome man!

Against the handsome man, the mythical beast lowered its head motionlessly, as though it did not dare to look the handsome man in the eyes.

All the martial artists were shocked when they saw that.

Who was that man who was able to subdue a pure-blooded ferocious beast merely by extending his palm without the use of any weapons?

Some martial artists shifted their gazes towards the sect badge on the handsome man's waist.

Those who recognized the background of the handsome man could not help but shudder in fear.

Taban Feng had a thoughtful expression.

Even with his arrogant and overbearing personality, he shook his head at the moment and sighed gently. "To think that even he would make a move for the Vermilion Fruit."

"The number one Quasi-Divine Realm Master of the North Region 30 years ago, Jorl Wuya!" Murong Wolt narrowed her gaze and uttered word by word.

Enduring her internal injuries, Norel Anette stood up and greeted with cupped fists. "Greetings, Young Master Jorl."

"Anyone from the North Region who would try and kill beauty Norel is truly someone who doesn't know how to cherish women," Jorl Wuya said with a smile.

Norel Anette turned around and glared at Aiden spitefully.

It was only until that moment that Jorl Wuya's gaze shifted to Aiden.

Aiden was expressionless and his gaze was deep, staring at Jorl Wuya who was not far away peacefully without the slightest hint of fear in his eyes!

Smiling, Jorl Wuya walked over slowly.

At that moment, everyone noticed that there was a strange martial artist who was following Jorl Wuya indifferently.

That person was only at early-stage Martial Master and wore luxurious robes with a mask. Any part of his skin that was exposed was covered, revealing only his eyes.

For some reason, when Aiden swept his gaze across the masked martial artist, he had a strange, indescribable feeling.

In the blink of an eye, Jorl Wuya had already closed in.

Aiden felt his hairs stand on end!

He finally understood how the mythical beast felt.

Jorl Wuya gave off a terrifying aura that was absolutely chilling!

Scanning his surroundings, Jorl Wuya asked nonchalantly, "Who plucked the Vermilion Fruit?"

Nobody answered him.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

However, everyone fixed their gaze on Aiden.

"It's me."

Aiden naturally knew that he wouldn't be able to hide the affair – nor did he want to – so he admitted to it readily.

"Alright."

Jorl Wuya nodded. "Hand over the Vermilion Fruit and commit suicide now. At least, that will ensure you die with a full corpse."

"Oh really… hahaha!"

Aiden first chuckled before breaking out into a roaring laughter.

Taban Feng suddenly remarked, "Be careful, Young Master Jorl, this is the outrageous monster incarnate of Holy Fire Island who has gotten so much fame lately! Back at the Ancient One's Palace, he defeated all the paragons there! Most of the paragons who died today died in his hands as well."

The monster incarnate of Holy Fire Island!

At the mention of that title, Jorl Wuya laughed.

A look of pity and mockery could be seen in his eyes.

"What a pity…"

Jorl Wuya looked at Aiden and sighed gently. "You're about to die today."

"By the likes of you?"

"By the likes of me."

Both of them exchanged gazes with raring battle intent – neither of them backed off.

Hushed discussions broke out in the crowd as well.

"What a pity for the monster incarnate of Holy Fire Island. There's no way he could be a match for Jorl Wuya now that his spirit energy is expended."

"That's right. Perhaps there might be a fight if he was in his peak condition. But now…"

"Nonsense, even if he is in his peak condition, the monster incarnate of Holy Fire Island is definitely not a match for Jorl Wuya!"

Before the discussions disappeared, the fight broke out!

Jorl Wuya did not move at all but two divine beams of light burst forth from his shining eyes. Everywhere they passed, the void would tremble!

Some of the martial artists who were hiding far away and caught unaware yelped and covered their eyes.

They were nearly blinded just by watching the fight!

Standing opposite Jorl Wuya, Aiden did not move at all and a demonic glint shone in his eyes.

After training the mystical techniques granted to him by that mysterious old man in the Ancient One's Palace, Aiden's eye power was frightening.

Jorl Wuya's visual secret skill could not injure Aiden or affect his mental state at all!

"Interesting."

Stepping on the ground with one feet, Jorl Wuya leaped into the air and hurled out a punch towards Aiden who was in midair!

His gripped fist looked like a glass with rainbow colors and shone in a bedazzling manner!

Rather than a punch, it was more like a blazing sun!

Aiden strode forward fearlessly as well and extended his arm which was filled with green veins. Gripping his fist like a seal, he clashed against the incoming punch!

Boom!

There was a deafening bang and the ground shook while the mountains quaked.

Endless resplendent light exploded and shone down from midair like fireworks.

In the fireworks, two figures that were fighting with one another attracted everyone's gazes.

Both of them were body tempered martial artists and were fighting in melee combat with their incomparably strong bodies!

With every clash, the underground palace would quake once.

The power produced by the both of them was way too great.

Even just by clashing their bodies and bloodlines, it was enough to send fear in the many martial artists who were watching!

"That monster incarnate of Holy Fire Island is so frightening."

"That's right. Even after killing countless people in a clash against all the paragons of the North Region while killing most of the paragons of the Great Upper Sects and four gentry clans, he still has the strength remaining to fight against Jorl Wuya!"

"Jorl Wuya hasn't used his trump card yet nor has he released his full strength. The moment he does that, this monster incarnate of Holy Fire Island is dead for sure!"

In reality, the toll on Aiden was great indeed.

The spirit energy in his core had already dried up after fighting all the paragons and releasing two great phenomenons.

Even without his spirit energy, Aiden was still extremely frightening!

The burst of his body alone was something that most Martial Masters wouldn't be able to withstand!

At that moment, Aiden was fighting fiercer and fiercer.

Up till this point of his martial, it was rare for him to encounter a martial artist who could compare with him in terms of body tempering.

However, at that moment, Jorl Wuya had conflicted feelings in his heart.

Crystal Palace Sect was the sect that was best versed in body tempering in the entire the world.

At its ultimate level, Crystal Palace Sect's secret skill could even kill ancient remnant beasts and subdue pure-blooded ferocious beasts!

Up till this point of his martial, Jorl Wuya had never encountered anyone who could match him in melee combat. But now, he was extremely troubled after meeting Aiden.

He was strange!

This successor of Holy Fire Island had actually managed to train his power to such a frightening degree of perfection!

What was even more terrifying was that the melee combat techniques released by the successor of Holy Fire Island were extremely tricky. Tough and gentle at the same time, they resembled a hungry anaconda coiling a massive mountain towards its unsuspecting prey; as well as a cheeky little monkey scaling a cliff!

In fact, there were a couple of times when he felt that his life was threatened!

50 years ago, Jorl Wuya came out from seclusion.

The moment he appeared, he overwhelmed with dominance and killed countless paragons. With a zero-loss record, he reigned supreme over the North Region and was lauded as the youngest paragon of the Martial Master realm with unlimited potential!

30 years ago, Jorl Wuya attacked and killed the renowned peerless paragon of Malefic Demons Clan who had been famous for a long time, shocking the entire North Region!

Thereafter, Malefic Demons Clan sent disciples to try and assassinate Jorl Wuya countless times. However, all their attempts ended in failure and they even suffered immense losses!

Ever since then, although nobody gave him the title, most of the martial artists in the North Region silently acknowledged Jorl Wuya as the number one Perfected of the North Region.

30 years had passed and Jorl Wuya had rarely shown himself.
