The Last Primal-797 Chapter 797

Ancient Demonic Flies were lifeforms of the ancient era and were long extinct in the rest of the world. Massive in size, they were larger than even the top three Saurian captains at the front and their wings would buzz loudly when they flapped. f𝒓𝗲𝗲𝒘𝑒𝚋ｎoѵ𝒆𝗹.co𝗺

While their bodies were relatively fragile, the mouthpart that they used to suck the blood of other living beings was their killing weapon and was extremely frightening!

Long, thin, sharp, and indestructible, their mouth parts could penetrate the flesh of other living beings with ease and they could suck an ordinary living being dry within 10 seconds!

What was even more terrifying was that Ancient Demonic Flies lived in swarms!

When Ancient Demonic Flies hunted for food, they would swarm over, with the skies covered. Even ancient remnant beasts wouldn't be able to escape them and would turn into dried corpses in the blink of an eye.

Tai Liu squinted her eyes and her gaze flickered as her thoughts raced.

The Ancient Demonic Flies had flown at least an impossibly large distance from the time Aiden gave his warning until now. It was at least several hundred yards.

'How could he see them? Could it be that Aiden had spotted the Ancient Demonic Flies from more than a few thousand feet away?' The thought of that possibility gave Tai Liu a shock.

Unfortunately, there was no time to think as a swarm of Ancient Demonic Flies appeared before them. In fact, Tai Liu could make out the bloodshot eyes and the thin long mouth parts that were already stained with a fresh coating of dark green colored blood of the Ancient Demonic Flies!

The agitated disciples could not hold it any longer and hurriedly grabbed their weapons, and circulated their battle techniques, attacking the dense swarm of Ancient Demonic Flies.

In the blink of an eye, a brilliant spirit light shone in the fog and gradually filled the place!

*Clang!* *Clang!* *Clang!*

Swords and Glaives of the many disciples pierced through the air. The Ancient Demonic Flies lightly shook their mouth parts and collided with the air-sailing weapons, causing the sound of metal clashing to ring out!

Most of the clashing blades were repelled, returning empty-handed!

The distance between them shortened once more. Shockingly, the attacks of the fierce swords and glaives could not break the defenses of the Ancient Demonic Flies!

The battle-trained disciples of the Azure Myst Sect were flustered as they hurriedly reached for their sect's magic-inscribed insignias and released their secret arts and raised life-saving magical shields, temporarily stopping the Ancient Demonic Flies in their tracks.

However, they had a limited number of uses out of their identity tokens and they could not release these secret arts continuously either as they required a huge consumption of their spirit energy.

After withstanding the first wave of attacks from the Ancient Demonic Flies, they still had to use everything they got just to defend.

*Swoosh!*

Right then, just as the two parties would have clashed in an utterly sad and bloody manner, in the void at the most front several Ancient Demonic Flies were sliced apart by an ominous ebony thick and slightly curved demonic blade and fell to the ground one after another.

Tai Liu looked over and found Aiden controlling his fearsome weapon, Rygintarth. Without even condensing a sword formation or relying on any flashy technique, he was causing massive damage to the Ancient Demonic Flies swarm!

Suddenly, Aiden's voice sounded, breaking Tai Liu from his sudden reverie.

"[Reptilian] Don't let the Ancient Demonic Flies get close to you! Their mouth pieces are extremely lethal, indestructible and can go against your swords and spears. Everyone, there's no need to fight them head-on. Use the agility of your weapons to wrap around or behind them and you can kill them with ease!"

Upon hearing those words, everyone was invigorated and attacked as per his advice. Indeed, it was a huge success and countless Ancient Demonic Flies fell, staining the skies red with blood.

There were too many Ancient Demonic Flies as they filled the skies and swarmed over like locusts.

Even though they knew the weakness of the Ancient Demonic Flies, it was inevitable for them to have openings in their defense, allowing the Ancient Demonic Flies to close in!

Those bloodstained, thin and long mouth parts were extremely sharp. Once a warrior was pierced by them, bloody holes would be formed and they would be sucked dry in the blink of an eye, leaving behind nothing but a dried-up skeleton!

Initially, several disciples died as the group continued ahead, causing gaps in the formation.

Under Tai Liu's lead, the group gathered even more closely and tightly, covering the gaps so that the formation wouldn't be destroyed and torn apart.

Although they were similarly at strength and most of them were at the late to peak stages of the Martial Warrior realm, Aiden's inner Soul Power energy was much richer than the Azure Myst Sect Disciples Spirit Power Mana.

Coupled with his supreme, magical artifact sword spirit and his newly learned battle techniques, Aiden himself alone created an immense amount of damage ahead and was virtually unbeatable!

No Ancient Demonic Flies could reach him as bloody mists appeared continuously ahead along with the tragic cries of the former.

With Aiden taking over most of the attacks, the pressure on Captain Dragha and Juno Hian lessened significantly and the group continued pushing forward.

Even without turning back to look, Aiden could clearly see in his system's generated map as the green dots signifying the Azure Myst Sect's disciples falling to the ground repeatedly, unable to get up. Each time a green blip flashed and blinked before turning gray and vanishing forever afterwards…

In that Fog Valley, one was as good as dead if they suffered serious injuries. Since those martial artists chose to enter the valley in pursuit of Ancient Burial Ground's treasures, they had to accept the dangers they were currently facing!

Aiden, whilst wanted to help them was by no means a saint and did not have the energy or chance to save everyone. All he could do was ensure that the front of the formation was preserved as much as possible and lead the group through the obstacles ahead.

Almost a full hour later, the group of them broke out from the encirclement of the Ancient Demonic Flies.

The surrounding Ancient Demonic Flies were gradually minced by the many swords and spears and fell.

"[Reptilian] Everyone, take a rest and treat your wounds. Use the potions and elixirs to recover your energy as quickly as possible!" Tai Liu declared with a heave of relief after breaking out from the Ancient Demonic Flies.

Aiden nodded without any emotion visible on his face when he heard her decision. Now that there was a moment of respite he quickly pulled up the system's screen as before he had to ask Enya to silence the system as notifications kept on popping up and distracting him with their constant ringings.

Now that he had some time he wanted to see what was happening, however as he took a look, he was pleasantly surprised.

[The Host's proficiency with the Innate Skill: Void Splitting Manual (Level 3) has increased! Current Progress: ?????]

From the hard fought battle, Aiden's System Points reserves skyrocketed once again, gaining a massive boost of almost 8000 EXP in total, boosting his new stack of EXP up to 32500 points.

Even better, his knowledge in both his Mystic Martial Arts as well as with the mysterious Void Splitting Manual increased once again. Although he could not check the current progress on the latter, he was one fifth into reaching the next rank with the former.

Although he could have also used the heat of battle and absorb a couple of these flying insects and possibly gain a new form as well as some new skills, Aiden vehemently denied the prospect. These things were beyond disgusting… revolting. He did not want to do anything with them. Not now, not in the future. Never.

The disciples stopped in their tracks and started bandaging their wounds while consuming elixirs, panting heavily with pale faces.

Everyone looked towards the gray robed figure of Aiden at the front with complicated expressions. Previously, none of them could understand why their Young Master was willing to offend all the top factions gathered just to recruit this unknown risk factor, this Aiden.

But now, all of them realized how terrifying Aiden really was! After that battle, he was calm and composed as usual. Compared to them, he was worlds apart.

People like Tai Liu and the elderly uncle understood everything even better.

If Aiden had not paved the bloody path in front of them, they would have lost at least half of their group!
