Chapter 182: Recovery of Flesh and Blood (1/2)
Nie Tian was just about to say something when he found that Dong Baijie had already been dragged out of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace by a mysterious force and was nowhere to be seen.
SHEW!
By that time, the piece of flesh that carried Dong Baijie’s Heaven Gate pattern had reached Nie Tian’s side and the hexagram inside of it immediately flew into the back of his hand.
After receiving the hexagram, Nie Tian briefly examined it with his psychic power and saw that there were also numerous ancient symbols floating within it, just like the first part of the Fragmentary Star Incantation.
All the ancient symbols were aligned in a perfect order, making it very easy and pleasant to read.
“Middle part of the Fragmentary Star Incantation!” Nie Tian’s expression flickered. A hint of smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he no longer felt the pain from the numerous wounds covering his body.
In order to obtain the first and middle part of the incantation, he had used up all of the three life-saving talismans and three Ice Blast Pearls that his master had given him.
However, he had a feeling in his heart that compared to the incantation, all those were nothing.
Due to Dong Baijie’s voluntary withdrawal, the Heaven stage area returned to peace.
Nie Tian dropped to the ground, took out several pieces of spirit beast meat from his bracelet of holding and started munching in silence.
While eating, the close to a dozen piercing wounds on his body still had blood flowing out of them.
To prevent himself from bleeding out and dying, he had to treat the wounds and stop the bleeding as quickly as possible.
He tried to draw spiritual power from his dantian’s spiritual sea and use it to heal his wounds.
All of a sudden, he sensed that wisps of wood power that contained a thriving life aura swirled out of the vortex of wood power in his spiritual sea.
Not only that, unusually strong heartbeats echoed out from within his chest, as a valiant life force was suddenly born within his heart.
The vigorous wood power and the life force infused into Nie Tian’s blood and flesh at the same time.
The two kinds of power that were somewhat similar to each other flowed rapidly within his blood vessels and meridians, before they soon converged on the bloody holes.
In the next moment, all the puncture wounds stopped bleeding.
“What!?” Flabbergasted, he looked down at a bloody hole on his arm, and saw that not only had it stopped bleeding, but there were even muscle fibers wiggling inside of the wound.
Like a spacial rift that was about to close up, the messy wounds were healing and shrinking at a slow speed.
As a matter of fact, since Nie Tian could see it with his eyes, the healing process was actually very fast.
For commoners, if their flesh had been punctured, it would usually take weeks or even months to heal the wound.
However, with the help of the wood power from his spiritual sea and the life force that originated from his heart, his wounds were healing at a speed that was many times faster than a normal person’s rate.
“Those two kinds of power have sped up the healing of my wounds!” Nie Tian’s eyes lit up and his face was filled with excitement as he came to realize that his bloodline power, which wasn’t fully awakened yet, was much more mysterious and powerful than he had expected!
Before long, he could no longer sense any pain from the wounds on his limbs and abdomen.
FIZZ! FIZZ!
It was at that moment that more starlight streamed out of the vast and boundless starry river in the ceiling of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace.
Dong Baijie’s withdrawal and the fact that he had left the middle part of the Fragmentary Star Incantation to Nie Tian seemed to have triggered a certain restrictive spell of the palace.
Upon seeing more starlight falling out of the heavens, Nie Tian instantly grew excited, as he knew that he could channel it into his soul, along with the mysterious power it carried.
Without any hesitation, he assumed the lotus position and used the secret magic that he had learned to attract the falling starlight.
Soon, countless rays of starlight converged on him and streamed through the top of his head into his soul.
