Chapter 58: Battle of Psychic Power! (1/2)
“You dare to fight me?”
Du Kun had never felt even the slightest bit of respect for Nie Tian. Seeing Nie Tian dashing toward him in this way, he didn’t even bring out a spiritual tool to fight with.
He waited until Nie Tian was about ten meters away, then laughed in a deep voice and stretched out his fingers.
At first, his fingers were the same color the rest of his skin, a seemingly unhealthy, waxy yellow.
But when he extended them, his palms and fingers suddenly turned as black as ink.
At first glance, it almost looked as if he had put on a pair of black gloves, which then sent numerous black aura strands out of his fingertips.
“Go!”
With a swing of his hands, he sent finger-thick beams of black light shooting out. They were like sharp, pitch-black swords, piercing ferociously towards Nie Tian’s chest.
From within those black light beams, there also came surges of intense coldness. When they were about to reach Nie Tian, he even heard the weeping sound of evil ghosts.
“Wail of the Ghost!” shouted Du Kun. Face cold, he took the bracelet of human thumbs off his wrist and clenched his fist around it.
A moment later, strands of black smoke flowed out of the bracelet and rapidly transformed into distorted ghost heads..
Next, the sound of the wailing ghosts grew even louder and more heart-quivering!
The chorus of weeping was like a hail of sharp thorns, piercing into the depths of Nie Tian’s spiritual sea.
A moment later, the beams of light stabbed into Nie Tian’s chest, causing piercing pain to fill his mind.
PUFF! PUFF! PUFF!
Not only was his dashing momentum towards Du Kun stopped, he even staggered backward several steps because of the excruciating pain.
When he finally struggled to a stop, he looked down to discover that he had more than ten bloody holes drilled into chest.
The sight of the fresh blood flowing out from each hole caused him to cry out involuntarily.
After the dust settled, Du Kun looked at Nie Tian, totally stunned.
“You’re still alive?”
All of the five disciples that the Ghost sect had sent into the Green Illusion dimension were Qi warriors at the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Du Kun had reached that level a year ago, and had already slaughtered seven opponents at the same stage as himself.
Those seven people were all at the ninth level of Qi Refining. However, when they were hit by his ten light beams, their bodies had all been pierced, killing them instantly.
Nie Tian, on the other hand, had been sent staggering backward, and was bleeding profusely, but still stood strong and tall.
These abnormalities left Du Kun completely puzzled. He quickly put aside any feelings of contempt towards Nie Tian, and started to examine him all over again.
Looking down at the ten holes in his chest, Nie Tian’s face turned grim, and an intense fighting spirit gradually filled his bright eyes.
“I’m wounded…”
This was the first time that he had ever been truly hurt in battle.
Before, when he fought juniors of the Nie clan, they were forbidden to use spiritual tools, hence he had never sustained a serious injury.
The worst thing that ever happened was that he coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, but nothing more.
However, in this battle with Du Kun, it was only the first exchange, and already he had more than ten bloody holes drilled into his chest.
Were it not for his exceptionally strong physique, Du Kun’s first strike might have already killed him.
At this time, even though he was wounded, and hurting incomparably in the chest, he showed no fear.
On the contrarary, he was somewhat excited!
“Yee?!”
Even as he shook out his arms and legs, preparing for his counterattack, he suddenly felt the warm currents in his abdomen madly converging onto the bloody holes in the front of his chest.
Only at that time did he remember that he had consumed a large amount of spirit beast meat before Du Kun showed up.
Originally, he was going to use the spirit beast meat to continue strengthening his flesh and bones, as well as expanding his spiritual sea.
However, due to the abrupt outburst of battle, he didn’t have the chance to calm down and cultivate. At this moment, the spirit beast meat that he had previously consumed started to generate power.
He could sense that the power neither merged into his flesh, nor flowed to his spiritual sea, but rather converged onto the bloody holes in his chest.
When he looked down to check his wound again, he discovered to his surprise that the bleeding had completely ceased!
Moreover, the incomparable pain had also been significantly reduced.
It was as if the bloody holes pierced into him by Du Kun’s finger blasts weren’t even affecting him at all.
Du Kun had been staring at Nie Tian the whole time. Therefore, he also noticed the incredible anomalies and the astounded expression on his face.
