Chapter 162: Bloodline! (1/2)

As the plant turned into flying dust, Nie Tian opened his mouth and laughed loudly. “Good, it feels good.”

That plant had developed from a leaf that contained pure wood power.

And apparently, the wood power was only a branch of life power.

Not only did the unusual heartbeat cause Nie Tian to restore the life energy that he had lost to the plant, but it even channeled the wood power that was stored in the leaf into his body as well.

As soon as the wood power dispersed into his flesh and blood, it made his vital energy become even more vigorous.

He felt that his energies and spirits had reached a state of fullness that had never been achieved before.

THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!

At this moment, his heart was still beating unusually strongly and still had no sign of settling down.

A thirst that originated from his heart seemed to be urging him to absorb even more wood energy and obtain even more vital energy to strengthen his flesh and blood.

He abruptly looked towards Kan Xingming and saw the panic and cluelessness on his face.

Besieged by three Qi warriors, Kan Xingming distracted himself by observing Nie Tian from time to time. His movement in controlling the vines had even started to become a bit stiff.

“There are even more leaves on that man’s spiritual armor that contain rich wood power…” Muttering to himself, Nie Tian probed into his own heart, and slowly came to the realization that the abnormality of his heartbeat seemed to have developed from its strong thirst for wood power.

He subconsciously stepped towards Kan Xingming.

WHOOSH!

Kan Xingming, who was fighting near the dilapidated city wall, dropped from the sky. He snorted and once again shot two fresh, green leaves out from the chest area of his spiritual armor.

The two leaves continuously evolved and released an odor that could twist all living things as they floated towards Nie Tian.

However, Nie Tian’s expression didn’t even change in the slightest. He continued to step closer despite the fact that the two leaves were coming his way.

It was because at this moment, he felt that the thirst in his heart had become unprecedentedly raging and fierce!

He even had a feeling that even though the two leaves were unearthly items refined by the Greater Heaven stage Kan Xingming, they would absolutely not hurt him!

His confidence originated from the thirst and the excitement in his heart!

BANG BANG BANG!

His heartbeat was still growing faster. An extremely complicated life fluctuation suddenly exploded from within his heart and spread out into his surroundings, with him being the center.

The eye-catching veins on the two leaves seemed to be instantly affected.

Nie Tian looked at them with rapt attention. He realized that the two leaves, which were traveling at a high speed towards him, had evolved. They had developed into two slender, flexible vines, and like spiritual snakes, they intended to bind around Nie Tian’s neck.

BANG!

Along with the vigorous beating of Nie Tian’s heart, both of the green vines seemed to be suddenly taken over by a mysterious force.

The green vines that resembled vipers suddenly broke free of Kan Xingming’s control. The psychic communication between him and the green vines was forcefully cut off by a mysterious and advanced power.

Kan Xingming’s expression changed drastically. The sudden elimination of the psychic power that he had attached to the green vines had inflicted a minor injury on him.

In Kan Xingming’s eyes, the two green vines were supposed to drop down to the ground due to the effect of gravity, since they had already escaped his control.

However, they stopped right before Nie Tian’s chest and floated there.

Shocked, he watched as Nie Tian slowly reached out his hand to touch one of the green vines, without even a smidgen of hesitation in his eyes.

The moment Nie Tian’s finger touched it, the green vine instantly released pure wood power!

The wood power that Kan Xingming had spent many years collecting and refining turned into dark-green, drifting light as it swiftly flew into Nie Tian’s finger.

A layer of faint, dim-green aura flourished within Nie Tian’s body, causing him to seem rather mysterious.

It wasn’t long before all of the wood power in the green vine was completely drained by Nie Tian.

WHOOSH!

Having lost all of its wood power, the green vine disintegrated and turned into flying ash.

Fear stretched across Kan Xingming’s face.
