Chapter 1030 - No escape

1030 Chapter 1030 - No escape

"Ah!"

Kher Melen's eyes widened with disbelief as he let out a jarring shriek while blood drained from his face!

He truly hadn't expected a victor to be decided between them within a single round of their clash!

If he was dealing with inexperienced martial artists, his methods would have worked.

However, he was naive to think of tricking Aiden.

How fast were Aiden's reactions?

The moment he sensed something amiss in the clash between their fists, he had already changed tactics to release a killing move from his secret skills to rip off Kher Melen's arm!

The two of them were way too close.

Aiden had no intention of letting Kher Melen escape.

"You're the one who should prepare to die!"

Roaring, Aiden strode forward and reached out with outstretched fingers.

Pang! Pang! Pang!

Jade-white fingernails protruded, shining with a cold glint like daggers as he grabbed for Kher Melen's head.

If that grab landed, five bloody holes would definitely appear on Kher Melen's head!

All of a sudden!

A sense of danger rang in Aiden's mind.

Without time to hesitate, Aiden gave up on killing Kher Melen decisively and retreated swiftly.

A rainbow-colored glass light shot down and brushed past his body – it was extremely sharp and almost wanted to sever the void!

If Aiden was a single bit slower, he would have been cut into two by that glass light!

A terrifying energy fluctuation spread through the void.

The energy had already surpassed the power of phenomenons!

Divine powers!

The Martial Grandmasters had attacked!

It was one of the two Guardians behind Kher Melen!

The information filtered into Aiden's mind as he retreated without turning back.

Only Guardians would have that reaction and could rescue Kher Melen from his hands!

Nobody else would have been able to do it!

True enough.

Not far away, the eyes of an old man with gray hair and a beard dimmed as he shook his head. "This man is way too frightening. We can't even trap him with our combined forces."

Suddenly, the void behind the old man ripped apart and a dark tear appeared silently. Sinister winds gusted from within, threatening to devour everything!

The appearance of Divine power would result in a dimensional fluctuation.

With the fluctuation, dimensional tears would appear to cleanse the origin of that energy so as to ensure the stability of the dimension!

The old man sighed. "Summon the formation."

The moment he said that his body was swallowed by the dimensional tear in the void and his Essence Spirit was destroyed – he turned into dust with nothing left behind.

The tear in the void closed slowly until there was no gap left.

Summon the formation?

Aiden raised his brow slightly as he felt a sudden sense of danger!

Another Guardian behind Kher Melen surveyed the surroundings before soaring into the air and declaring, "Everyone, please help us to kill this lad!"

"Alright!"

"It's wonderful if I can kill a monster incarnate like this before my death!"

"Hahaha! My life won't be wasted with this lad's death to accompany mine!"

A series of voices echoed from above the four walls of the ancient city.

North, south, east, and west, old men with gray beards and hair appeared. Although they did not release their powers, there was a shuddering aura repressed within their bodies!

Four Guardians!

Typically speaking, it was already at the limits if there were two Guardians that accompanied the paragon of a sect into the ancient battlefield.

In fact, some super sects would not even have any Guardians.

After all, Guardians would die the moment they attacked.

Even if their lifespans were about to end a few years later, no martial artist would be willing to enter the ancient battlefield.

Yet, Crystal Palace Sect activated six Guardians this time round!

This was clear proof of how highly they regarded Aiden.

No matter what, Crystal Palace Sect had indeed felt immense pressure from Aiden's declaration letter of war!

During this period of time, Kher Melen's injury had already been bandaged.

He glared at Aiden venomously and snarled, "Aiden, I'm going to slice the flesh off your body piece by piece and eat it up! I'm going to torture you to death!"

"Hahaha!"

Aiden stood in the air and burst into laughter. "You think that you can kill me with just four more Guardians?"

"Humph!"

Kher Melen smirked menacingly. "Don't get cocky! We knew that you would send yourself to us so we prepared a long time ago! Prepare yourself!"

The fingertips of the Guardian on the East city wall shifted repeatedly and his glabella shone, emitting a series of bright beams that landed on a circular artifact weapon.

Whoosh!

The artifact weapon spun and instantly emitted a column of light that engulfed Aiden.

"Hmms? Demon Revealing Mirror!"

Aiden's expression changed slightly as he released his blood energy. His body flashed repeatedly as he tried to get away from the radius of the Demon Revealing Mirror's column of light.

However, no matter how fast his movement techniques were, they were not faster than light.

The Demon Revealing Mirror was not harmful to demon beasts by itself.

Its only purpose was to restrict the Inner Core or Essence Spirit.

When the Inner Core was restricted, demon beasts would lose the power of their Inner Cores and that was the reason why their true forms would be revealed.

Whoosh!

Another column of light shone from the West and shot down.

Aiden's body shuddered.

A mysterious energy was trying to penetrate his body to reach his circulating Inner Core.

However, the Nigal Prayer Beads that were hidden on his wrist shone and blocked the energy!

The Nigal Prayer Beads was a top-grade Divine weapon, to begin with.

Although two Buddha Beads were missing and it was incomplete, it still managed to retain some of its mysterious Divine powers.

When the column of light shone on Aiden, he paused for a moment and his blood energy circulated furiously. The power of his Inner Core surged and his speed received a massive boost, allowing him to break free from the light column.

Aiden could clearly feel that his Inner Core was completely sealed and was unable to circulate!

21:25

"Hmm?"

A Guardian exclaimed softly, "A single Demon Revealing Mirror is not enough to hold him down!"

"Thankfully, we're prepared!"

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Another two columns of light shone down.

With nowhere to run, Aiden was pinned to the spot by the two columns of light!

Immediately after, the first two columns of light descended on Aiden as well.

Four columns of light from four Demon Revealing Mirrors in all directions shone down on Aiden's surroundings!

Aiden could clearly feel that his Inner Core was completely sealed and was unable to circulate!

The Nigal Prayer Beads was a damaged Divine weapon after all.

At the same time, Aiden had not cultivated an Essence Spirit and could not release the true strength of the Nigal Prayer Beads. The most he could do was use the damaged Divine weapon to defend against one of the Demon Revealing Mirrors.

Now that Crystal Palace Sect had brought out four Demon Revealing Mirrors, even the Nigal Prayer Beads couldn't do anything about it!

"Omnidirectional Demon Suppression Formation!"

The four Guardians shouted at the same time with stern expressions.

Suddenly, mysterious runes lit up on the areas the four columns of light from the Demon Revealing Mirrors shone on!

Aiden grunted dully and the pressure on him intensified!

In the hands of four Guardians, the four Demon Revealing Mirrors had turned into a formation!

The formation pinned down Aiden like a gigantic mountain and exerted pressure relentlessly, locking him motionlessly on the spot!

Aiden could clearly feel his bones and tendons trembling inside his body, letting out cracking sounds that were jarring!

He refused to bow down and clenched his teeth with a ferocious glint in his eyes. Channeling his bloodline with all his might, he pushed against the pressure on his spine and green veins popped on his neck.

A series of dimensional tears appeared above the four walls.

The four Guardians were devoured in succession.

However, the formation was laid down and the situation was set in stone – Aiden could not escape even with the death of the Guardians!
