During this period of time, with the help of elixirs such as the Blood Curing Pill, the wound before his chest had mostly recovered.
At this moment, all the paragons were wounded and could not release their Martial Master phenomenons in a short period of time.
The only one truly of threat to him was the masked man from Crystal Palace Sect.
However, Heavenly Piercing Sword Sect's paragon could tell clearly that the masked man was at early-stage Martial Master.
He would definitely have the advantage if the two of them were to fight!
The reason why he chose to stand out now was naturally to control the situation and suppress everything so that he could take advantage of the situation!
"Vile Beast, why aren't you cocky anymore?"
Clang!
Heavenly Piercing Sword Sect's paragon withdrew the sword hanging on his waist and slashed forward.
A milky-white sword beam flashed by.
Instantly, a gash appeared on Aiden's thigh. Although it wasn't very deep, fresh blood seeped out right away.
The reason why Heavenly Piercing Sword Sect's paragon did not aim to kill with that attack was clearly because he wanted to humiliate Aiden and trample on his dignity!
Aiden did not move at all, as if he did not even have the strength to dodge. Although his face was pale, his eyes burned brightly in a terrifying manner!
He was truly drained after killing Jorl Wuya.
Furthermore, Jorl Wuya was a perfected Martial Master, the number one perfected being of the North Region. He was truly someone with frightening strength and had an extremely terrifying physique after training the Crystal Mental Defense technique. After the repeated head-on clashes, Aiden suffered rather serious injuries.
Thin tears were appearing on his organs!
If Jorl Wuya could endure for a little more, he might not have been the one who died.
At that moment, Aiden did not retaliate and was merely silently healing up and recovering his stamina.
He had the Mystic Gold Silk Armor; be it the spirit art of the first martial artist or the slash from Heavenly Piercing Sword Sect's paragon, both were external injuries that did not manage to hurt him at the core!
Aiden had trump cards left as well.
If he were to release them, the entire world would be overturned!
When Heavenly Piercing Sword Sect's paragon saw that Aiden did not retaliate, he turned even more ferocious and continued forward. The sword in his hand trembled and created a flurry of swipes.
Poof!
Blood sprayed from Aiden's shoulders once again.
"Heh."
Heavenly Piercing Sword Sect's paragon chuckled, his eyes filled with mockery as he sneered, "Why? You don't even have the strength to fight back now?"
Aiden merely smirked without replying.
"Sigh, to think that such a peerless monster incarnate would end up in such a state."
Muron D'ohr shook his head and sighed gently, lamenting.
Mala Deisho remarked softly as well, "Even tigers and dragons have to suffer if they are trapped. This should be a tribulation in his life as well. If not for Jorl Wuya, he would have gotten out of this place long ago instead of being humiliated by these small fries now."
"He had no help at all. If anyone had stepped forth to offload some pressure from him, he wouldn't have landed in such a miserable state," Muron D'ohr sighed once more.
Mala Deisho nodded. "That's right. Who would have the guts to stand beside him now and go against the entire North Region?"
"What kind of a monster incarnate is this? Just die!"
Heavenly Piercing Sword Sect's paragon felt uneasy and did not want to drag things out further. Finally, he made up his mind and slashed forward.
His sword was aimed at Aiden's glabella!
If that slash struck, Aiden's head would be pierced entirely.
Aiden narrowed his gaze. Right as he was about to move, he suddenly frowned with a look of confusion.
Buzz!
The sound of a sword buzzing rang out.
An incomparably brilliant sword beam appeared all of a sudden!
That sword beam was magnificent and attracted everyone's attention.
However, its speed was way too fast.
It happened instantly.
Nobody could see where the slash came from.
Nobody could identify the trajectory of the slash.
Nobody could identify the direction of the slash.
However, everyone felt the killing intent from that slash!
The sword beam dissipated.
Suddenly, the battlefield went silent.
The atmosphere turned extremely strange.
Heavenly Piercing Sword Sect's paragon froze in his steps.
His gaze turned dull.
After a momentary pause, the long sword in his hand fell and a thin gash appeared on his throat, turning wider and clearer!
Poof!
A blood mist spewed out.
Heavenly Piercing Sword Sect's paragon fell stiffly forward, dead!
The crowd was in an uproar!
Countless martial artists looked all around, trying to seek out the person who attacked.
There were not many sword martial artists in the North Region.
There were even fewer sword martial artists who could master such a terrifying sword technique to be able to threaten the paragon of Heavenly Piercing Sword Sect.
Taban Feng and Murong Wolt glared at a black-robed man in the middle of the crowd with conflicted expressions. They were shocked and surprised, but more than that, they were puzzled.
The black-robed man held a pitch-black sheathed sword in his left hand. Slowly, he strode out from the crowd one step at a time.
Surveying his surroundings with a hollow gaze that could not focus, he spoke slowly, "Anyone who wishes to kill him will first have to pass through my sword!"
Aiden did not recognize the black-robed swordsman.
He could not understand why this person wanted to help him.
However, he once felt an extreme sense of danger stemming from the black-robed swordsman!
From that slash earlier on, his gut feeling was verified.
That slash happened way too quickly.
Heavenly Piercing Sword Sect's paragon did not even get the chance to release his Martial Master phenomenon before dying on the spot!
"Where did this lunatic come from?!"
"Hmph! If he's the helper of this beast from Holy Fire Island, he might be a beast as well! Everyone should target him!"
Some sharp martial artists who noticed that the black-robed swordsman did not have any identity badge on his waist assumed that he was an oblivious itinerant martial artist from out of nowhere and started ranting at him.
With Aiden facing imminent death, there might be many treasures up for grabs. Naturally, all the paragons were coveting that and none of them wanted to let up.
"Everyone, let's attack together! It's not as though this guy could cause a storm!"
A martial artist beckoned and attacked first.
With the first came the second.
More martial artists were standing out one after another.
Instantly, spirit energy surged and sword beams streaked through the void one after another in a bedazzling manner, shooting towards the black-robed swordsman on the black-robed swordsman like an arrow rain!
The black-robed swordsman's right hand moved in a seemingly slow manner towards the pitch-black hilt of the sword on his left hand.
The moment his right hand made contact with the hilt, the black-robed swordsman's aura changed all of a sudden!
His initially lost gaze suddenly gained focus, resembling two extremely sharp swords.
When the martial artists who attacked met with his eyes, they shuddered.
Some of them shrieked and closed their eyes hurriedly.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Two streams of blood flowed down from their eyes in an extremely chilling manner!
A single look blinded those people!
"What powerful sight he possesses!"
Aiden's heart skipped a beat.
After training the old man's unique techniques, he had already unlocked all his body enhancement stages and even his eyesight was much sharper with extremely powerful sight.
Even the Enraged Diamond Gaze of the Buddhist's Diamond Monastery and the Bewitching Eye of the demonic sects' Pure Maiden's Sect could not affect his mind.
However, Aiden's demonic eyes had yet to reach the level of releasing such a terrifying killing power with just a single look.
He lamented internally, "I wonder how that person managed to train such a frightening pair of sword eyes."
The black-robed swordsman's gaze had always been lost and unfocused, looking listless.
Yet, the moment he held his sword, nobody could ignore his killing intent and the edge in his gaze!
Buzz!
A buzz reverberated through the world.
The unparalleled sword beam from earlier on reappeared with a bedazzling radiance.
Cling! Clang!
A metallic sound could be heard.
The many flying swords darting over from midair were all shattered.
The sword beam flashed for a moment.
All the martial artists who attacked fell from midair in succession without a single survivor!
The moment they fell to the ground, they were already corpses!
Although they were prepared for it, not many paragons of the North Region present managed to see the black-robed swordsman attack.
By the time the paragons realized what happened, the sword had already returned to its sheath.
The black-robed swordsman's right hand returned to his side, slumping naturally as though he had never attacked at all.
