Chapter 869: A Tangled Figh (1/2)
While approaching Nie Tian, Han Sen’s vigilant eyes switched back and forth between Nie Tian and Pergson.
Pergson the Bonebrute was still holding his Bone Shatterer in his hand.
As a powerful magical treasure of the Bonebrutes, the Bone Shatterer had an innate subduing effect on most Bonebrutes, yet it didn’t carry any flesh aura.
Therefore, it didn’t attract any more tainted energies to Pergson.
With a casual swing, he slashed the Bone Shatterer in Nie Tian’s direction.
FZZZ!
A pale curved blade light that contained rich death power shot out of it.
Nie Tian had engaged in a brief battle against Pergson before. He fully understood the formidable might of the Bone Shatterer in his hand. Therefore, he made a quick decision and escaped with a Starshift.
Seeing Nie Tian vanish into thin air like a ghost, Pergson didn’t try to pursue him, but instead pointed his Bone Shatterer at Han Sen.
The pale curved blade light split into numerous strands that instantly surrounded Han Sen.
Cursing, Han Sen hastily folded the fan in his hand.
In the next moment, a large number of lightning bolts shot out of the folded fan that looked like a short spear, filling a small area around him.
Thunderclaps filled the air.
“Bloodline magic: Blight!” As Pergson the Bonebrute shouted these words, the numerous strands of pale light wreathing Han Sen instantly burst into white flames.
The flames started clashing with the lightning bolts, sending waves of energy fluctuations in every direction.
Han Sen’s expression flickered as he felt with great clarity that he was being drained of his life force.
A mysterious power from the Bone Shatterer had infiltrated his flesh, and was now piercing into his bones, causing him to experience stabbing pain all over.
He struggled to contend against the destructive power inside of him with his lighting power.
Nie Tian, however, gave up on the idea of fighting Pergson, but rather went on to find other outsider opponents.
He soon located a Blackscale, and flashed to his side with a Starshift. He found a gap between his armor-like, pitch-black scales and plunged a translucent tree branch through it into his chest.
“Heaven Wood Thorns!” Nie Tian exclaimed. Then, the tree branch that was translucent and sparkling started growing madly within the Blackscale.
Even though the Blackscale was at the sixth grade, as Nie Tian activated Heavenly Wood Thorns, his vigorous life force was rapidly drained by the thorns that spread uncontrollably inside of him, piercing through his internal organs and severing his meridians.
The Blackscale let out agonized roars.
He wanted to activate his bloodline talents to save himself, yet since his heart was also impaled, he couldn’t activate any of them.
“Life Drain!” However, Nie Tian unleashed another bloodline talent, and started channeling rich flesh power from the Blackscale through the tree branch he had planted into his chest.
Soon, the Blackscale’s impaled heart shriveled as wisps of flesh power were forcibly channeled away by Nie Tian and greedily devoured by the green aura within his heart.
The Blackscale then collapsed to the ground and died.
BANG!
Without sparing Pergson a glance, Nie Tian went on to search for his next target.
He was well-aware that since he couldn’t really use the Bone Blood Demon here, and the Flame Dragon Armor would attract too many tainted energies if he unleashed it, there was a great gap between his strength and that of Pergson, who held the Bone Shatterer.
Besides, Pergson didn’t pursue him anyways. He didn’t have to put himself into a difficult situation by turning back to fight Pergson.
Meanwhile, the girls also joined the tangled fight between humans and outsiders, whether they wanted to or not.
That was because as soon as the outsiders saw them, they wouldn’t ask them anything, but pounce on them right away.
Nie Tian took a moment to shoot a glance at them.
He discovered that Yin Yanan and Mu Biqiong didn’t summon their Frost Blood Python and coexisting flowers.
They both understood that once they summoned their Frost Blood Python or coexisting flowers, the torrential tainted energies converging on them would put them under tremendous pressure.
Therefore, they wouldn’t summon them unless they absolutely had to.
But even though they were fighting outsiders by relying on their own strength, the battle prowess they displayed was still rather impressive, allowing them to handle their respective opponents with ease.
