Chapter 1548: The Spirit Scepter (1/2)

The new arrival appeared to be a very young female Netherspirit.

Judging by human standards, she only looked like a thirteen-year-old girl.

However, her cyan pupils were as cold and fierce as remote mountains and frosty lakes.

For some reason, Ophelia of the Demons looked at this Netherspirit girl in a very strange way, her face filled with reverence.

Ophelia was a Demon. Even if she were going to pledge her allegiance, she should pledge her allegiance to the Devils.

While clearly spirited by the young female Netherspirit’s arrival, Grand Monarch Thousand Spirits’ sub-soul hastily explained the situation. “If I release the Behemoth Crawlers, Nie Tian will...”

Apparently, even he treated her with great respect.

“Leave him to me.” After taking on the important task in an arrogant manner, she turned to look at Nie Tian. “It’s you, right? You don’t carry a rich flesh aura. You’re nothing but a normal human being.”

“No, Barbara. That’s only his doppelgänger.” Grand Monarch Heavenly Spirit said.

“His doppelgänger?”

The little Netherspirit girl, who he referred to as Barbara, said, numerous mysterious soul symbols appearing in her deep, cold eyes.

Like cyan lightning bolts, the soul symbols combined into a mysterious formation in the depths of her eyes, brewing a wondrous soul magic.

All of a sudden, a sharp, ear-piercing drone filled the mind of Nie Tian’s flame doppelgänger.

He felt a heart-wrenching pain.

Since his flame power sub-soul wasn’t his true soul, it hadn’t been branded with the profound truths he had derived from the Nether River, and it wasn’t immune to the Netherspirits and Phantasms’ various powerful soul magics.

He had only been able to contend against Grand Monarch Thousand Spirits because the five evil gods had been helping him.

However at this moment, the five evil gods were simply sitting by and letting Barbara attack him with soul magics.

Seeing the pain on Nie Tian’s face, Grand Monarch Thousand Spirits’ sub-soul was instantly spirited. While releasing the Behemoth Crawlers, he shouted, “Barbara, the magical seals on the brows of the five lords are Grand Monarch Heavenly Spirit’s Heavenly Spirit Seals!”

The remaining Behemoth Crawlers then flew out once again in formidable swarms, and flooded towards the Ripper Behemoth that was massacring outsiders of different races.

The three major races of the Void World had bred the Behemoth Crawlers with the sole purpose of dealing with Star Behemoths. As long as they could find Star Behemoth flesh auras to devour, they could reproduce infinitely.

Even if Nie Tian burned ninety percent of them with the raging flames he channeled from the Flame Land, the remaining ten percent would still be able to reproduce at a shocking speed as long as they could find enough Star Behemoth flesh auras.

Seeing that Grand Monarch Thousand Spirits had released the Behemoth Crawlers again, the Ripper Behemoth, which looked like a humongous centipede, felt a strong threat and grew anxious.

It howled and cried out Nie Tian’s name, signaling for him to burn the Behemoth Crawlers.

However, Nie Tian’s head was splitting with pain as he suffered from Barbara’s soul magic. He couldn’t even use the spell formation within his flame domain to summon flame power from the Flame Land.

As this happened, the Heavenly Spirit Seals on the brows of the five evil gods started flickering.

That was a manifestation of Nie Tian’s attempt to communicate with the five evil gods and command them to attack Barbara of the Netherspirits.

However, even though the evil gods had dared to attack Grand Monarch Thousand Spirits and any other Netherspirit or Phantasm, they seemed too timid to attack Barbara.

HOWL!

Failing to see any response on Nie Tian’s part, the Ripper Behemoth let out an angry howl as it turned its terrifying colossal centipede-like body around and flew towards the floating continent.

The floating continent was its sanctuary.

“Wanna run?”

With a cold snort, Barbara, the little Netherspirit girl, took out a scepter that didn’t seem to be made of metal or wood.

However, winding Nether Rivers could be seen carved on it, as if they were flowing inside of it.
