Chapter 335: Back Thrus (1/2)
Chapter 335: Back Thrust
The news that the Heaven Palace Sect from the Realm of Mystic Heaven and many other powerful sects from other realms had launched a joint search for a young man from the Realm of Flame Heaven named Nie Tian had long since spread to every corner of the Domain of the Falling Stars.
The Realm of Split Void was no exception.
Qiu Yang had also learned that the young man named Nie Tian had only attracted the attention of so many powerful Qi warrior sects because he had obtained legacies from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace.
After witnessing Nie Tian cast Starstrike and attack him with a mysterious formation of five starsparks, Qiu Yang thought about the numerous unbelievable things that had happened to Nie Tian. Connecting the dots, he immediately guessed Nie Tian’s real identity.
“Nie Tian! Hahaha! You’re Nie Tian!” Qiu Yang was more thrilled than shocked.
His eyes shone with the light of excitement as he said, “Legacies from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace!! This is great!!”
SHEW!
Like a dazzling, bright mark, the formation of five starsparks shot directly towards his chest.
FIZZ! FIZZ!
Qiu Yang waved his hands through the air to form exquisite hand seals. In the next moment, more fine, pitch-black strings flew out of his open sleeve cuffs.
The numerous pitch-black strings acted as he commanded as they attempted to bind that star formation.
BAM! BAM! BAM!
However, as soon as they made contact with the star formation, each and every string exploded.
Qiu Yang let out a muffled groan as his expression flickered. No longer daring to fight the star formation head-on, he moved about swiftly to avoid it.
However, the star formation, which Nie Tian was able to control with great accuracy, continued to pursue him and changed directions whenever he did.
Watching Qiu Yang shift between locations like a ghost as he avoided the star formation, Nie Tian grew increasingly determined to kill him as his expression grew grim. “I’ve got to kill this man. I can’t afford to let him live!”
He had consumed half of his strength to launch that Rage Punch. Yet, he had failed to kill him with it.
Thus, he had no choice but to bring out Starstrike of the Fragmentary Star Incantation to deal with Qiu Yang.
Ever since he had cast that Starstrike, he was bent on killing the seriously injured Qiu Yang in this region.
After all, he couldn’t afford to expose his identity before he arrived in the forbidden region and stripped the third fragmentary star mark from Ning Yang.
He didn’t want to scare the snake by beating the grass.
Only when Qiu Yang was dead would Nie Tian’s true identity remain a secret, and would Ning Yang not be alarmed.
Only in that way would they be able to carry out the plan he had made with Li Langfeng and Xue Long. If he let Qiu Yang get out of here alive, Ning Yang might somehow learn about his whereabouts.
If it really came down to that, it would be much more difficult to deal with Ning Yang.
WHOOSH!
A spiritual energy ball filled with the tainted spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth of the Realm of Split Void rapidly came to shape and shot towards Qiu Yang.
Since Nie Tian had infused the spiritual energy ball with some of his own spiritual power, it became completely controllable. In the blink of an eye, it flew to the location where Qiu Yang was standing.
BOOM!
The spiritual energy ball exploded, sending multicolored light in every direction. The gray light shield Qiu Yang protected himself with instantly shattered.
At that very moment, the star formation composed of five starsparks seized the opportunity and rushed over.
Engulfed by sputtering, multicolored light, Qiu Yang let out an agonized shriek as he was struck by the star formation, dazzlingly bright rays of starlight shooting out in every direction from the contact point.
Immediately afterwards, another surge of devastating force burst forth from within the star formation and inflicted serious damage on Qiu Yang for a second time.
PUFF!
Meanwhile, Nie Tian also puked a mouthful of blood after exerting his power repeatedly.
Some of the numerous pitch-black strings Qiu Yang had used to attack him were still roaming inside of him.
Even though the green aura was ripping apart and devouring many of the pitch-black strings, some of them were still ravaging his flesh and releasing air currents that could cause him to expand.
Since he had to spare some of his attention to condense the spiritual energy ball and cast the Fragmentary Star Incantation, he didn’t focus all of his attention on stabilizing his injuries, which gave the pitch-black strings an opportunity to create an outburst.
“Flame Dragon Armor!” Bent on killing Qiu Yang to keep his secret, Nie Tian finally dropped all scruples and called upon his Spirit Channeling grade treasure using his psychic awareness.
WHOOSH!
The Flame Dragon Armor, which had lay dormant within his bracelet of holding for a long time, whizzed out of Nie Tian’s bracelet of holding, leaving a trail of blazing flames behind it.
The Flame Dragon Armor seemed to be able to read his mind, and it seemed to understand that it didn’t need to act in discretion any more. Therefore, it flew right out, unleashing raging flames.
Nie Tian looked up into the air and discovered that the Flame Dragon Armor was covered in numerous sparkling, red threads, which seemed like streams of lava flowing on the crimson surface of the Flame Dragon Armor.
