Chapter 665: Misleading

POOH!

The Flame Star exploded with blinding blood-colored light as it slashed the small-built young woman in half.

Afterwards, Nie Tian jerked his head around and gave Ji Longa cold smile.

At this moment, Ji Long had become the only surviving junior.

He had gone rampant under the effect of the Blood Decay Pill. In Nie Tian’s eyes, he was now nothing but a witless beast.

Furthermore, Nie Tian also noticed that the strong efficacy of the Blood Decay Pill was taking a toll on Ji Long’s body. Many of his internal organs and meridians had already burst.

Instead of engaging in close-up battle with him right away, Nie Tian flashed about to avoid him, forcing him to chase after him, gasping for breath.

Shortly afterwards, he smiled as he noticed that Ji Long’s flesh aura had grown increasingly weak.

After dancing around him for about ten minutes, Nie Tian noticed that Ji Long seemed to have lost most of his flesh power, since he started to drag his steps.

Only then did Nie Tian flash behind him and smash the back of his head with his palm.

CRACK!

Ji Long’s skull shattered from the explosive force.

He finally crashed to the ground, bereft of any aura of life.

Nie Tian sighed. “Poor guy...”

He knew that, even if he didn’t kill them, Ji Long and the other juniors would eventually die from the side-effect of the Thousand Refinement Pills and Blood Decay Pills they had taken.

He had only accelerated the process but didn’t change the results.

These juniors only existed for the purpose of finding Master Voidspirit’s legacies. Their destinies had long since been determined, perhaps with Ji Long being the only exception.

However, even Ji Long had been abandoned when Han Chigui had felt that his life was in danger.

Now, with Ji Long dead, there wasn’t a single soul near the Voidspirit Pagoda.

Glancing around at Ji Long and the other juniors’ cold bodies, Nie Tian hesitated briefly before deciding not to drain their remaining flesh power with Life Drain.

He had something better.

He took a seventh grade outsider corpse from within his ring of holding and started absorbing its flesh power with Life Drain.

The flesh power he had consumed fighting Ji Long was rapidly replenished.

Shortly afterwards, he sensed Zhao Shanling’s aura approaching him.

He quickly returned the outsider corpse to his ring of holding and sat up straight from the lotus position.

Zhao Shanling returned alone. He gathered the rings of holding of the four Bliss Mountain Sect elders and walked to Nie Tian. “Those four were all at the Soul realm. If they were in the Domain of the Falling Stars, the four of them alone could have formed a sect that was even more powerful than the Heaven Palace Sect.

“It’s pity that they all lost their lives trying to get Master Voidspirit’s legacies.”

“If there are Void domain experts in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries, they must have many more Soul realm experts than us,” Nie Tian said. “Each sect probably has multiple Soul realm experts, similar to the Profound realm experts in the sects from the Domain of the Falling Stars.”

Zhao Shanling nodded. “Good point. How are you doing?”

Nie Tian had just absorbed some flesh power with Life Drain but hadn’t had the chance to use it to heal his wounds.

From Zhao Shanling’s point of view, Nie Tian was covered in deep cuts, and in a very worrying condition.

However, Nie Tian knew that the injuries he had sustained were only flesh wounds, nothing serious.

Once he was given the time to circulate the flesh power he had recently absorbed with Heavenly Wood Heal, the open wounds would soon heal without leaving the slightest scar.

“I’m alright,” Nie Tian answered casually. “They are merely some shallow cuts.”
