Chapter 495: Infiltration of Toxins

Upon seeing Pei Qiqi’s arrival, Zhang Jiu instantly gave up on the idea of killing Nie Tian, and decided to withdraw.

After all, he didn’t know if there were still others who had come to this floating continent together with Nie Tian and Pei Qiqi.

He was also worried that powerful Worldly realm or Profound realm experts would arrive within a short time.

The four larger spirit vermin had profound connections with the four of them. As they were bent on leaving, they each summoned their spirit vermin with their minds, commanding them to leave with them.

However, even though their spirit vermin heard the summons of their souls, they could only let out even sadder shrills. Not one of them was able to break free from the binds of Nie Tian’s flesh power.

Zhang Qiu and the other three simultaneously fled in four different directions, repeatedly looking over their shoulders as they did.

Sitting upright by the foot of an ancient tree, Nie Tian grinned somewhat scarily. As he shook his shoulders, numerous dead small bugs fell to the ground.

Meanwhile, the Crimson Chain Snake, brown centipede, green scorpion, and black bee seemed as if they were clamped by Nie Tian’s flesh.

As hard as they tried to return to their masters, they couldn’t.

Due to the activation of Life Drain, wisps of Nie Tian’s flesh power, which were even finer than hair, pierced into them and held them down like sharp hooks.

The pure and rich flesh power within the four spirit vermin poured madly into Nie Tian’s body like a flood rushing through a shattered watergate.

“Why the rush? I’m not done playing yet.” Grinning, Nie Tian shook himself briefly, and more small bugs fell to the ground.

Every one of them had been drained of every last shred of flesh power, and looked like dried-up meat that had been left in fierce sunlight for years. Not the slightest sign of life could be sensed from them.

One after another, wisps of refined flesh power flowed back to Nie Tian’s heart, where they were greedily absorbed by the green aura.

Wreathed in rich flesh power, Nie Tian expelled all of the spirit vermin’s venom and toxins from his system.

Feeling full of vigor, Nie Tian charged towards the late Greater Heaven stage Poison Sect disciple with a scary grin on his face.

Pei Qiqi, who had returned after killing the Poison Sect messenger, was taken aback upon seeing that Nie Tian was completely unaffected by the four spirit vermin clinging to him. Her bright eyes flickered as she saw Nie Tian charge towards an enemy like a tiger pouncing on its prey.

After a moment of bewilderment, she hastily formed exquisite hand seals.

In the next moment, two spatial energy wards suddenly came to form in Wu Cui and Luo Ting’s paths of escape like two thin layers of rippling water.

Wu Cui and Luo Ting ran into the wards headfirst, and with a violent shake, they both disappeared.

Meanwhile, Ethereal Swords shot out of Pei Qiqi’s cuff as she charged towards Zhang Jiu, not paying any further attention to Wu Cui and Luo Ting.

Both she and Nie Tian knew that if any of the four escaped from them and sent word to their seniors, they would end up in huge trouble.

That was why they had exchanged a glance and reached a mutual understanding right before they launched counterattacks: none of these Poison Sect disciples would live.

SHEW!

Nie Tian kept an watch on Wu Cui and Luo Ting with his Heaven Eyes as he chased after the late Greater Heaven stage Poison Sect disciple.

He saw with great clarity that the two of them tumbled into the wards of spatial energy, and thus were now trapped within the wards.

Their expressions flickered drastically as they searched for a way to get out of there.

They unleashed various incantations and rushed about non-stop, but still couldn’t find a way to break free from Pei Qiqi’s spatial wards.

The fact that they couldn’t escape from Pei Qiqi’s restriction magic even though they were both at the middle Greater Heaven stage proved how unfathomable Pei Qiqi’s strength had become.

BOOM! BOOM!

The green scorpion and black bee were drained of flesh power and fell off Nie Tian’s shoulders. Their shriveled bodies crashed to the ground.

As they did, Nie Tian observed Wu Cui and Luo Ting via his Heaven Eyes, and discovered that their faces had turned even more ghastly.

The scorpion and bee were their spirit vermin, which had profound connections with them. The deaths of the scorpion and bee seemed to have made them suffer a backlash.

“Such rich flesh power!” Sensing the excitement of the green aura in his heart, Nie Tian smiled heartily and cast a short-range Starshift.
