Chapter 862: Hiding Flesh Aura (1/2)
Nie Tian’s expression instantly flickered.
The tainted energies rapidly surrounded him from every direction, making him very uncomfortable.
The energies here were much more intense than they had ever been in the Realm of Split Void, and there were more kinds of them as well.
He only sensed briefly, and realized that there was spiritual Qi, demon Qi, phantasm Qi, toxic Qi, death Qi, and various other types of energies in the air, and they filled every inch of this region.
Soon, the tainted energies infiltrated Nie Tian flesh, making him sore and numb all over.
He felt as if his flesh aura was running low, and as he took in the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, mixed energies would also enter his spiritual sea, poisoning his spiritual core with all kinds of impurities.
Even the rotation of his three vortexes of different powers slowed due to the entry of the tainted energies.
After a brief moment of hesitation, Nie Tian summoned his flesh power to form a dark-red shield around around him to keep the tainted energies away.
Even so, fizzing sounds kept coming from the dark-red shield under the influence of the tainted energies.
Even though his flesh power could neutralize the tainted energies, protecting him from them, he sensed that his flesh power was being consumed at an alarming rate.
WHOOSH!
Yin Yanan leapt off the air-transportation spiritual tool,. The pieces of primal ice that she had obtained from Gao Lihu shone dazzlingly as they rapidly formed into a spell formation that imprisoned the evil spirit that had sniffed out their flesh aura.
As a misty white aura exuded from the pieces of ice that were more than ten thousand years old, the gray spirit screamed unceasingly, unable to break free.
Eyebrows furrowed, Nie Tian turned to look at Xie Wanting and Mu Biqiong.
To his surprise, he noticed that, even though the three of them were standing close to one another in the air-transportation spiritual tool, the intensity of the tainted energies they had to deal with varied greatly.
The tainted energies that gathered around him were the thickest, which looked like a multicolored cloud that surrounded him.
Mu Biqiong’s situation was much better than his. Even though she was also surrounded by a layer of tainted energies, they were much fainter than what Nie Tian was facing.
However, Xie Wanting, who was at the late Profound realm, the highest among the three, had the faintest tainted energies gathered around her.
Surprised by the scene, Nie Tian soon understood that very living being that entered the heart of the Bloody Grave Mountain Range was like a magnet, outsider or human, and they would attract the tainted energies from their surroundings.
The richer their spiritual power and the tougher their fleshly body, the stronger their magnetic field would be, and the more tainted energies they would attract to themselves.
Even though Mu Biqiong’s coexisting flowers were slumbering inside of her at this moment, they also seemed to have their own magnetic fields.
As faint as they were, due to their dormant state, they made Mu Biqiong attract more tainted energies to her than Xie Wanting.
Nie Tian, however, had three vortexes of different powers within his spiritual sea. Plus, his body was unusually tough, and filled with vigorous flesh power. These factors resulted in the phenomenon that even more tainted energies were gathered around him than Mu Biqiong.
Xie Wanting also found the scene fascinating. With a bitter smile, she said, “As far as I know, the stronger one is, the more intense tainted energies one will have to deal with in the central area of the Bloody Grave Mountain Range. Since you two are surrounded by more tainted energies than I am, this means that the magnetic fields you create are much stronger than mine.”
Reluctant as she was, she had to admit that Nie Tian and Mu Biqiong were freakishly powerful.
Even though they were at the the late Worldly realm and the early Profound realm, they could attract so much tainted energy to them. She found this rather frustrating.
“The stronger someone is, the more he or she will suffer from the harmful environment...” Nie Tian muttered.
All of a sudden, an idea entered his mind, and he rapidly activated Life Stealth.
The shield he had formed with flesh power disappeared soundlessly, with a ward of flames taking its place.
In the next moment, his flesh power fluctuations, which were even stronger than a normal outsider’s, seemed to suddenly vanish completely.
Even his heartbeat became very slow and too subtle to detect.
That was when strange things happened.
As he examined his surroundings with rapt attention, he noticed that the tainted energies that were gathered around him gradually grew fainter and fainter.
In merely a few seconds, the amount of tainted energies that were gathered around him dropped by close to eighty percent.
The blazing ward he had established around him could easily ward off the remaining tainted energies.
