Instantly, the old temple went silent.
It was as though air had gone stale!
"I will discipline it for you!"
By the time the first word, 'I will', was said, Aiden had already vanished from the spot.
At the second word, discipline, Aiden had already arrived in front of the hairy burly man and stomped furiously on the ground, causing the world to quake with a boom!
Even Morwyn Blackstone who was not directly involved felt his legs wobble and shuddered for a brief moment uncontrollably, let alone the hairy burly man who was facing it directly.
It was even worse for the little fox whose fragile and weak body bounced from the ground instantly.
The hairy burly man's expression changed!
This was way too ferocious!
Earlier on, he faced a calm, smiling monk. In the blink of an eye, it was like an ancient demon that was about to devour others!
An overwhelming aura shrouded him.
The hairy burly man felt his chest go stuffy and was unable to breathe.
Although the monk looked shorter than him, he felt like he was trampled by the monk in terms of aura!
At the third word, it…
Aiden extended his massive palm and his flesh expanded, blanketing the skies as it descended. There was a terrifying aura as though all living beings were about to be suppressed by his palm!
Although there was no spirit energy, that hand seal was the first form of the Demon Subduing Seal!
It was an innate counter to demon beasts!
"Ah!"
The hairy burly man roared in rage and the blood energy in his body rumbled. Baring his menacing fangs, he crossed his muscular arms and propped it upwards in defense!
Boom!
There was a deafening sound.
The aura between the two of them was chaotic.
The moment they made contact, the expression of the hairy burly man changed and he felt a terrible pain in his arms, as though they were about to snap!
Although Aiden was only using one hand, the hairy burly man felt an apocalyptic power surging through like the crush of a tidal wave – it was unstoppable!
"For!"
At that moment, Aiden had just said the fourth word!
The hairy burly man's Inner Core circulated wildly and his demonic energy burst forth. All his tendons and bones rang and his fur and flesh expanded rapidly. His body was transforming swiftly as he revealed a menacing expression.
Unable to withstand it, the hairy burly man's reaction was extremely fast and he revealed his true form immediately.
Although demon beasts could take on human form after they formed a core, they could only release their true strength upon returning to their true form.
The rise in combat strength would be at least 30%!
"It's a Daemon Wolf!"
Morwyn Blackstone could not help but exclaim softly in surprise when he saw the hairy burly man's true form.
The Daemon Wolf was one of the primordial ferocious beasts.
There were many types of demon beasts and their strength was mostly determined by their bloodlines.
Among them, pure-blooded ferocious beasts were the strongest!
However, even among pure-blooded ferocious beasts, there were stronger and weaker ones.
The Daemon Wolf was among the strongest and most terrifying of the pure-blooded ferocious beasts with immense strength. In the primordial era, they reigned domineeringly in the world and were extremely violent!
At this phase, the true form of a Daemon Wolf was at least a hundred feet tall.
But now, against Aiden's blanketing palm, the Daemon Wolf's body looked like it was suppressed by a gigantic mountain and could not grow more than ten feet!
Finally, the Daemon Wolf panicked.
It realized that the difference in strength between the two of them was too great!
Even with his true form, he could not fight this monk before him head-on!
You!
Aiden's final word was spoken.
Snap!
Against the suppression of the terrifying strength, the Daemon Wolf's arms were crushed by Aiden's palm!
Aiden's palm descended upon the Daemon Wolf's head and pushed down fiercely!
Boom!
Aiden pushed against the Daemon Wolf's head and thrust it into the ground.
Instantly, a big hole caved into the ground with fresh blood splattering everywhere!
The Daemon Wolf's face was messed up with flesh and blood.
"I will discipline it for you!"
Although the entire process seemed slow right from the moment Aiden moved till the Daemon Wolf's head was buried, in reality, all it took was a single sentence!
By the time Aiden's final word was spoken, the Daemon Wolf was already unconscious.
So many years of dormancy.
Aiden had focused wholeheartedly on religion and his violent streak had diminished significantly while his mental state had turned much calmer.
That was the reason why he did not strike directly even after witnessing the Daemon Wolf bully the little fox and injure Morwyn Blackstone.
However, he was Aiden after all.
Decisive to kill!
Since he was going to attack, he was definitely not going to hesitate.
He suppressed with a thunderous might that could not be resisted!
He was an unparalleled blade with extreme edge!
The moment he was unsheathed, a hole would be punctured through the firmaments!
"Hmm? He's not dead yet?"
Aiden frowned when he sensed life from within the Daemon Wolf's body after thrusting the latter's head into the ground.
This ferocious beast was truly frightening.
Notwithstanding its tremendous strength, even its body was extremely tough. Despite the impact where even its face was contorted, it was still not dead.
Aiden remained silent and exerted strength in his fingers with the intention of crushing the Daemon Wolf's head.
All of a sudden!
A sense of danger rang in Aiden's mind.
He felt an extremely dangerous aura!
Aiden turned around instinctively.
Not far away, the purple-robed martial artist had already raised his head and was glaring at him intently. The purple-robed martial artist's expression was cold and there was an icy intent in his gaze.
The purple-robed martial artist had not moved at all.
With one hand behind his back, he held up the Mystic divine Lotus prayer with his other hand and did not seem like he intended to attack.
However, Aiden felt chills run down his spine!
The purple-robed martial artist's pupils were constricting!
Initially, the constriction of one's pupils was a natural instinct.
No matter the race, when one was agitated, terrified or hostile, their pupils would constrict.
However, a normal constriction would cause the round pupil to shrink until it became a hole the size of a needle.
Yet, the purple-robed martial artist's pupils seemed like they were round moons being devoured – the entire process resembled an eclipse.
Eventually, two crescent moons were sinisterly reflected in the purple-robed martial artist's eyes!
When he saw those pupils, Morwyn Blackstone's expression changed starkly.
Two words flashed through Aiden's mind – Eclipse Eye!
Eclipse Eye was one of the most notorious visual techniques of the cultivation world and had roots that traced back to the primordial era.
Although this visual technique was extremely strong, its cultivation process was also extremely dangerous!
Throughout history, only a rare few, less than one in 10,000 people, managed to cultivate it successfully – most of the others trained themselves into blindness!
Now, even if any martial artists came across the cultivation technique of Eclipse Eye by accident, they wouldn't dare to cultivate it either.
To think that this purple-robed martial artist would have trained that visual technique!
To begin with, there were few people who could cultivate visual techniques.
There were even fewer that could cultivate Eclipse Eye. Not only must they be peerless paragons, they must even possess immense confidence in themselves!
When he noticed the changes in the purple-robed martial artist's pupils, Aiden realized that this was definitely not a weakling in the world!
Two cold beams of light streaked through the purple-robed martial artist's eyes.
The next moment, his pupils returned to normal.
However, those two beams of light arrived before Aiden swiftly and silently, like two extremely sharp crescent blades.
To Morwyn Blackstone and the little fox…
It looked like the void between Aiden and the purple-robed martial artist was a silk cloth that was sliced by the two cold beams of light!
The temperature of the entire courtyard dipped massively!
"Watch out!"
Morwyn Blackstone only had enough time to exclaim.
All of a sudden!
A change happened!
A bedazzling radiance burst forth in that eerie courtyard that was shrouded by the night skies.
It was as though a blazing sun had descended here with a blinding shine!
Illumination Eye!
Aiden's right eye was white as jade without any impurities.
The light that was released from his right eye illuminated the old temple like daylight!
Suddenly, a burning column of light burst forth from Aiden's right eye and collided fiercely against the two cold incoming beams of light!
Although the two vastly different energies collided, it was silent.
The spirit energy between the both of them evaporated into thin air completely!
In Morwyn Blackstone and the little fox's eyes, it was as though the void between Aiden and the purple-robed martial artist had distorted and was collapsing!
The might released by two top-tier visual techniques caused everyone's visions to be impacted severely!
