Each time his gigantic feet stomped down on the crowd and left, a red, bloody region would appear.
There were initially millions of martial artists in the allied army. But now, they were mostly defeated and split up by Aiden to fight in small groups.
With the swarm of the beast stampede, although they had only fought for a brief moment, the allied army received a tremendous blow and suffered heavy losses!
This was the core of Iron Mountain Range.
Even if they wanted to retreat, there was nowhere out for them!
Demon beasts were cruel and bloodthirsty by nature.
Now that there was a massive massacre, the demons were even more excited and their eyes were bloodshot!
On the spirit vessel.
The princes of the three dynasties frowned.
The bald burly man said darkly, "Don't worry, princes. That's only a Martial Master realm spirit demon. Although it's slightly larger in size, there's nothing to worry about."
"That's right."
The white-bloused woman nodded in agreement. "We just need a few top-tier Martial Masters on the battlefield to release their Martial Master phenomenons and it would be enough to kill that demon!"
Before her sentence was complete, a few Martial Masters that killed a few demon beasts in succession had already released their movement techniques to charge toward Aiden.
"Beast, catch my River Crossing Chains!"
The person hollered and a gigantic river surged behind him, crashing on the shores.
An extremely thick chain crossed the river and whipped Aiden ruthlessly!
Bang! Bang!
Another few Martial Masters charged forward and released their phenomenons that surged with a burst power as well.
"Scram!"
Aiden hollered and waved his gigantic fist against the few Martial Master phenomenons with such vigor it seemed like he could devour rivers and mountains with his roar alone!
"You're asking for death!"
"At the end of the day, he's nothing but a beast. To think that he would try to take on Martial Master phenomenons head-on with his body!"
Splash!
Aiden's fierce blood, tendons, and bones sounded together.
That single punch from him instantly released a tragic aura of blood stench!
Boom!
There was a deafening sound.
The void seemed to be frozen.
Immediately after, the Martial Master phenomenons in midair shattered entirely!
A few Martial Masters were severely impacted and they fell from midair with pale faces while puking blood – they were most likely doomed!
"Hmm?"
The expressions of everyone on the spirit vessel changed.
The strength of that demon beast had exceeded their expectations!
A metallic strong body that was invulnerable against weapons, fire, and water.
Even the combined attack of a few Martial Masters with their phenomenons could not injure him at all. Instead, they were killed by a single punch by him!
What sort of terrifying power did that body of his possess?
"Something isn't right!"
The prince of Great West frowned with a grim expression. "If this continues, our allied army is going to be destroyed by this beast! Perfected Lords, please make a move."
"Don't worry, prince. I'll head over right now and retrieve the head of that beast!"
The bald burly man glared at Aiden who was not far away with a murderous aura and smacked his lips.
"I'll go too,"
The white-bloused woman took the initiative to obey the order.
"Please hold on, the both of you!"
The skinny old man frowned slightly. "The three of us have a mission to protect the safety of our princes. We should let our fellow Martial Grandmasters deal with this beast."
There were another hundred Martial Grandmasters that accompanied the allied army.
At that moment, the commotion of Iron Mountain Range had already alerted the other Martial Grandmasters.
One after another, figures soared into the air from the back of the army with terrifying auras that were much more frightening than Martial Masters. They sped to the front with sharp gazes.
The skinny old man said deeply with a glint in his eyes, "There's something weird about this. It's better for us to be careful."
"Hehe."
The bald burly man's eyes flashed with mockery as he chuckled. "Fellow Daoist, aren't you being overly cautious? Surely a Martial Master spirit demon can't cause any huge troubles?"
"There's no need to argue,"
The prince of Great West said calmly, "The combined attack of a hundred Martial Grandmasters will fill the entire place with Divine powers. There's no need to fear these beasts, all we have to do is sit back and wait."
"Where's the beast?"
The white-bloused woman exclaimed softly and suddenly asked.
"What beast?"
Everyone froze for a moment.
Thereafter, they came to a gradual realization.
Just as they conversed, the towering humanoid ancient beast had vanished!
Everyone looked down in a hurry.
The battlefield was intense and chaotic but there were no traces of the humanoid beast!
How was that possible?
It was extremely difficult for that massive body to remain hidden – how could it have vanished?
The three princes had uncertain expressions.
The bald burly man frowned. "Don't worry, princes. I'll check it out with my spirit consciousness."
His glabella shone as he spread out his spirit consciousness that extended continuously.
Sight was one of the five senses and was limited in use.
The moment one's eyes were covered, they wouldn't be able to see anything.
Their vision would also be obstructed by any objects blocking their view ahead.
This was the logic behind the saying of how one wouldn't recognize something great in front of them if their eyes were covered even by a piece of leaf.
However, spirit consciousness was an energy fluctuation released by the Essence Spirit, a sensory tool that extended outwards.
Even with closed eyes, if the spirit consciousness met with any obstructions, it would just wrap around them like water. It could permeate every single pore and it was omnipresent, reflecting images in the mind clear as day!
There were no secrets that could be hidden!
It was simple if a demon beast wanted to hide in this forest.
However, it would be more difficult than ascending the mountains if it wanted to avoid detection from spirit consciousness.
The bald burly man retracted his spirit consciousness a while later with a terrible expression.
There was nothing!
The search radius of his spirit consciousness extended for a full five kilometers. However, there was no trace of the humanoid ferocious beast at all!
The bald burly man was a little confused.
It was practically impossible to escape more than five kilometers within such a short period of time!
Even Martial Grandmasters and Void Reversions wouldn't be able to do it, let alone a spirit demon at Martial Master realm!
It was as though the humanoid ferocious beast had disappeared into thin air!
In reality, the bald burly man was not the only one.
The hundred Martial Grandmasters in midair, as well as the white-bloused woman and skinny old man, had released their spirit consciousnesses instantly to track down Aiden.
However, none of them sensed anything.
All of a sudden!
A change occurred on the battlefield!
The hundred Martial Grandmasters in midair were descending onto the battlefield, releasing their spirit consciousnesses to check.
A Martial Grandmaster had just passed by an ancient tree when unexpectedly, a thick arm reached out from the darkness!
The arm was thick like an anaconda and wrapped itself around the Martial Grandmaster, pulling him behind the ancient tree!
"Ah!"
The person only managed to let out a brief, tragic cry before silence ensued.
Bang!
A disfigured body was tossed out from behind the ancient tree – its head was smashed to a pulp!
Although its appearance was completely destroyed, it could be seen from the corpse's attire that this was the Martial Grandmaster who was attacked earlier on!
"Who's there?!"
"Kill!"
A group of Martial Grandmasters roared and released their Divine arts that surged towards the ancient tree like a tidal wave.
Boom!
The ancient tree exploded into dust!
In the darkness, a figure could be seen sliding off the ancient tree long ago. With nimble moves, it tunneled into the forest in a flash and disappeared!
"It's him!"
"That's the humanoid beast!"
Although they could not catch sight of the figure's face, everyone could clearly tell that the aura it emanated was exactly the same as the humanoid beast!
"Where can you run to?"
Many Martial Grandmasters hollered and gave chase.
However, limited vision was already an issue to begin with in the forest. Coupled with the dark night skies, the group of them lost sight of the humanoid ferocious beast once again after a short chase!
"What is that demon beast?"
"I've got no idea. I tried using my spirit consciousness to check it out earlier but I couldn't see its true form, as though something was blocking me!"
"How could this be?"
A few Martial Grandmasters frowned and discussed in hushed voices.
If a demon took on mortal form, its true form could be revealed easily with the use of spirit consciousness as long as the difference between their martial art realms wasn't too great.
