Chapter 297: A Trap (1/2)

It was a team of four Hunters.

Three of them were at the middle Heaven stage, and one was at the early Heaven stage, the same as Nie Tian.

In Nie Tian’s eyes, their team were so weak that they wouldn’t stand a chance against him.

It had been a long time since he had encountered a Hunter team as weak as them.

Nie Tian was somewhat confused that with their puny battle prowess, they actually dared to roam about among the hills.

Therefore, he moved out without any hesitation.

HUFF! HUFF! HUFF!

He began to summon power and form spiritual energy balls in his hand as he secretly approached the team of four, hoping he could finish them off as soon as possible.

He even didn’t intend to practice his battle skills on them, since they were probably too weak to take a single blow.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Three spiritual energy balls shot out simultaneously and exploded in midair before reaching the four of them.

Multicolored light spots that contained different types of toxins and impurities sputtered in every direction, enveloping the team like a glorious rain.

“Ah!! It’s Hua Tian!”

“He’s attacking us!”

The entire team screamed as they madly summoned their spiritual power to power their protective light shields, so that they could resist the corrosion of the impurities.

Cracking sounds echoed out from their light shields, as it seemed that the protective shields they had formed with their own spiritual power were too weak facing such strong corrosion. Moments later, fissures began to appear on them.

At that moment, Nie Tian appeared in front of them, enveloped by his chaotic magnetic field. He continued to create more spiritual energy balls and use them to bombard his enemies. “You lot don’t fear death, huh?”

After the series of spiritual energy balls exploded, the countless multicolored light spots completely engulfed the team of four Hunters.

The light shields of the two middle Heaven stage Hunters were the first to fail. The moment they shattered, the two Hunters’ fleshy bodies were exposed to a storm of corrosive toxins.

The two of them dropped to the ground and screamed miserably, their eyes filled with rage and confusion.

However, strangely, from the beginning till the end, they glared at the early Heaven stage man on their team instead of Nie Tian.

The rage in their eyes made it clear that they were waiting for him to save them, but he didn’t do a thing, and watched them die.

“Xiao Lin!” The last standing middle Heaven stage Hunter shouted, his eyes also fixed on the early Heaven stage man on their team. “What the hell are you doing?”

As their enemy, Nie Tian was immediately confused by the abnormal scene.

It obviously didn’t make sense that all three middle Heaven stage hunters were enraged by their own teammate instead of Nie Tian.

At that moment, Nie Tian subconsciously began to measure up the man they referred to as Xiao Lin, who was also at the early Heaven stage.

The man looked rather unimpressive and mediocre. If he was among a crowd of people, he would be easily ignored.

Considering that he had a commoner’s look, an unimpressive cultivation base, and a mediocre physique, what made his three teammates so angry at him?

FIZZ! FIZZ! FIZZ!

The spiritual power shield around Xiao Lin was like giant, upside-down bowl over his head.

It was constantly twisting and flickering due to the strong corrosion of the bright spots, as if it would burst at any moment.

However, Nie Tian observed for a while, and discovered that even though it looked like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any moment, it actually was very resilient.

“Nothing,” The man named Xiao Lin said indifferently with an expressionless face. “You’re nothing but expendable bait. You’ve already lost your value now that Hua Tian has shown himself.”

“You!” The man blurted, fuming with rage.

Xiao Lin shook his head and said no more. He lifted his left arm, which was entwined by a few bands of spiritual power, and shot the bands that resembled snakes of light toward the Hunter next to him.

BANG!!!

The middle Heaven stage Hunter’s shield, which he had been struggling to keep intact, instantly burst, and the multicolored impurities flooded him in the next moment.

Before he died, he let out frenzied roars, “You’ll burn in hell, Xiao Lin! Hua Tian! He’s been brought here by the Fang to kill you. Run, quickly!”
