Chapter 856: Bloodline Upgrade (2/2)

In the next moment, a drop of Blood Essence in his heart started to seethe furiously.

Flesh power that was even fiercer flooded out of his heart into every corner of his body, further boosting his battle prowess, as if he had become a huge beast from the Desolate Antiquity Era that ran rampant in the forest.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Clusters of pure flesh power then shot out of him to bombard his surroundings like thunderballs, rapidly engulfing a large area around him in explosions.

As Nie Tian’s drop of Blood Essence went on to unleash its power to the fullest, loud explosions filled heaven and earth around him.

By the time it was finished, there was no longer a single tree left in a hundred-meter radius around Nie Tian.

The ground was riddled with holes and covered in leaves and bits of wood, while the rocks were reduced to crumbs by the explosions.

“Enough!” Nie Tian hastily stopped igniting more of his Blood Essence with Blood Essence Seething, his new bloodline talent.

“Everything in the Shatter Battlefield, including the living creatures and vegetation, should have been very tenacious and difficult to destroy, but...” Glancing around at the devastated forest, he burst into a wild laugh.

He suddenly had a feeling that now that his bloodline had advanced to the sixth grade and he had awakened Life Strengthening and Blood Essence Seething, he would be able to contend against a sixth grade outsider even if he didn’t have any spiritual power to use.

The scaly layer that formed over his whole body after he activated Life Strengthening could perhaps also protect him from sharp blades.

SHEW!

With this thought, he summoned a long, thin sword from within his ring of holding, infused it with his spiritual power, and then hacked his own arm with it.

CLANK!

Sparks flew from the point where the sword made contact with his arm, giving rise to a crisp metallic clash.

Only a faint mark was left on the scaly layer that covered his arm.

His flesh wasn’t cut open and his internal organs, meridians, and bones weren’t hurt at all.

Nie Tian’s eyes lit up. “Life Strengthening is kinda similar to the Demons’ and Bonebrutes’ indestructible form!

“Besides, I’ve crystallized my bones, nourished my internal organs, and toughened my meridians with Heavenly Wood Heal. Now with Life Strengthening added to my skill set, I wonder how much power my body can resist.”

With this thought in mind, he conducted a thorough examination of himself, and discovered that as long as Life Strengthening was activated, even though he wasn’t doing anything, he was consuming his flesh power that was scattered in different parts of his body.

That was because wisps of his flesh power were infusing into the scaly layer in order to maintain this special form.

WHOOSH!

He let out a long breath as he deactivated Life Strengthening.

Then, as his expanded muscles shrank, the scaly layer that covered his body gradually dissolved and disappeared into his flesh again.

He recovered his original form.

“This is awesome!” Nie Tian threw his head back and let out a long laugh that echoed throughout the forest.

Moments later, his eyebrows suddenly rose as he stopped laughing. The Water Moon Sect disciples arrived on air-transportation spiritual tools.

Xie Wanting and the others had intentionally traveled at a slow speed following the route Nie Tian and the girls had taken.

However, since Nie Tian and the girls had stopped to practice cultivation in this area, they eventually caught up to them.

Standing on the air-transportation spiritual tool, Xie Wanting gazed down at Nie Tian’s surroundings, which seemed to have been ravaged by a frenzied beast. Her eyes widened as she saw the ground riddled with deep holes, rocks reduced to to dust, and bits of wood still falling out of the air.

Most importantly, she failed to sense any spiritual power in the air.

Did this mean that Nie Tian had inflicted such a calamity on this area by relying solely on his fleshly strength?

This was simply astonishing.

Xie Wanting’s face turned pale as she now viewed Nie Tian as a ferocious monster in human form.

“Well... there’s this place we don’t dare to go by ourselves, but if you want to go take a look, perhaps we can go together.” After a short pause, she added, “I suppose only people like you will be able to contend against the truly powerful figures who would go there.”

With an intrigued expression, Nie Tian asked, “Where?”
