Chapter 326
326 The battle of the nascent soul
All the places that had true energy reactions had taken a hit from Bai Nantian’s sword.
The cloud-treading celestial sword and his clones stabbed at least a hundred times in an instant.
Every time he stabbed, a monster that looked exactly like the dark purple Mud Man that Bai Nantian had just killed would appear in the void. Then, its core would be pierced and it would lose its true energy reaction. It would be killed on the spot.
However, there were too many true energy reactions surrounding Bai Nantian. It was impossible to kill all of them and clean them up. In fact, there would be some who managed to sneak closer and attempt to attack Bai Nantian.
Of course, it was impossible to succeed. Even if he didn’t use the flying sword to fight the enemy, just the sword Qi emitted from the surface of his body was enough to kill the approaching Mud Man. Even the thick liquid that spurted out when the mud Man was killed was also blocked outside. This sticky liquid not only looked disgusting, but if one was stained by it, something abnormal might happen.
Even so, as time passed, Bai Nantian gradually felt that his body was still reacting strangely. His throat and chest felt stuffy and itchy. Furthermore, the feeling worsened within a short period of time after it appeared. Bai Nantian could not hold it in any longer and he started coughing violently. A sweet and fishy taste spread in his mouth and he actually coughed out blood.
This was an abnormal situation. Bai Nantian did not have any illness to begin with. With the body condition and cultivation base of a nascent soul realm cultivator, he was already immune to ordinary illnesses eight hundred years ago.
This could only be zou ziwu’s doing.
However, Bai Nantian did not even realize how zou ziwu had done something to his body.
As his true energy surged, Bai Nantian began to inspect his body’s condition.
He quickly detected an energy that was secretly eroding his body. This energy was used on every inch of his flesh and blood, affecting all his organs, including every inch of flesh and blood. Coughing and even coughing out blood were just the symptoms. In a further examination, Bai Nantian could feel that his body was being weakened and even his meridians were being eroded.
It was a good thing that it had been discovered. If the corrosion was allowed to continue, even a nascent soul cultivator like Bai Nantian would lose more than half of his combat power in less than an hour.
However, since he had already discovered it, there was always a way to solve it.
Bai Nantian’s vital essence formed tiny sword Qis on the microscopic level in his body as he attempted to expel and destroy the abnormal energy that had invaded his body.
The effect was quite obvious. The strange energy hidden in his body quickly melted away after being swept by the fine sword Qi, like snow meeting the sun. At the same time, Bai Nantian could clearly feel that his physical condition was improving rapidly. The indistinctive condition of his true energy circulation was basically gone and he no longer coughed.
However, Bai Nantian did not feel relaxed at all.
Although the corrosive energy in his body had almost been completely eliminated, he could still feel a subtle corrosive energy secretly infiltrating his body from the outside.
Bai Nantian, it’s not too late for you to turn around and leave now. Zou ziwu’s voice rang in his ears. It was clear that this ‘sword immortal cloudracer’ was at a disadvantage.
The corrosive energy that was constantly invading his body would be destroyed bit by bit when it was discovered. It would no longer accumulate to the point where it would affect Bai Nantian.
But so what? Could it be that Bai Nantian had been focusing on his inner vision all this while, maintaining the tiny sword aura and ensuring that every bit of energy that invaded his body would be eliminated without expending any energy?
The consumption of quintessential essence was not the main issue. The main issue was that Bai Nantian had to be distracted by his body’s condition and could not fully control his cloud-treading immortal sword in battle. This had a huge impact on the speed of his cloud-treading immortal sword in killing those purple mud monsters.
However, even though they were against the wind, Bai Nantian did not intend to admit defeat, ” “It’s impossible for me to retreat. I, Bai Nantian, have never taken a step back in my life!”
“Then, please die Here.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Nantian instantly felt that the surrounding spirit Qi atmosphere had changed. Under the influence of some strange true essence, the entire world in his eyes seemed to turn black and purple in an instant.
Under the black and purple light, the dots that were originally just true essence reactions all solidified and turned into purple mud monsters. These monsters were all over the mountains and fields, filling the entire Street. The houses on both sides of the street and on the roofs were also filled with the figures of these monsters.
At the same time, Bai Nantian could feel that the spirit Qi in his body had undergone a tremendous change. The corrosive energy that would always invade his body had become more and more intense.
The pressure suddenly increased.
Bai Nantian was not one to admit defeat. He unleashed all his vital essence and retracted the cloud-stepping celestial sword back to his side. It then split into 19 swords and no longer attacked. Instead, it stood guard at a distance of a few feet away from Bai Nantian to ensure that the purple mud monsters would not be able to get close to him.
At the same time, the feeling of corrosion in his body was getting stronger and stronger, and he had to do his best to resist it.
In this way, even though zou Zi Wu’s various methods could not threaten Bai Nan Tian, Bai Nan Tian could only defend himself. He could not take the initiative to attack and search for zou Zi Wu’s real body, nor could he deal with the surrounding purple soil monsters.
If that was the case, the two of them seemed to be in a state of mutual balance.
But the situation was not like that.
Bai Nantian could sense that the other party’s energy consumption was far greater than his. However, one thing that couldn’t be ignored was that the opponent could use the power of an entire level six spirit vein behind the battle.
How was he going to compete with the other party in terms of consumption?
However, Bai Nantian did not have the intention to retreat.
To put it bluntly, no matter how much zou ziwu bragged, he did not think that the other party had the ability to make him stay. If he wanted to leave, he could leave at any time. Whether it was the purple mud monsters around him or the viruses that were constantly eroding his body, they couldn’t do anything to him.
It wouldn’t be too late to retreat when he was at the end of his rope.
If it was the current situation, his only thought would be to try and locate zou ziwu.
It was not without results.
After careful identification, he finally found a special one among the Zhen Yuan reaction points that comb naishu knew very well.
He remained calm and did not beat the grass to scare the snake, but he fully activated his perception ability and constantly tried to analyze it. The more he analyzed, the more certain he was that it was zou ziwu’s real body.
The other party had concealed it very well and it was almost the same as the purple mud monsters around him. However, after Bai Nantian’s patient analysis, he could still sense the slight difference.
That should be it.
Zou ziwu had to control such a powerful force to form an endless stream of monsters to attack him. At the same time, he had to keep releasing the virus to corrode his physical body. It would be difficult for his main body to be too far away. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to maintain such a powerful force.
Since he had been caught and he had confirmed it, Bai Nantian would not hold back anymore!
The doppelgangers of the cloud-stepping celestial sword were still protecting him, cleaning up and eliminating the purple mud monsters that were approaching him. But the original body of the celestial sword drew a stream of light and shot directly at the endless monsters that were coming like mountains and seas.
Anything that the immortal sword flowing light touched was cut off mercilessly. It couldn’t stop the flowing light from hitting its target.
All of this happened in an instant.
Bai Nantian’s eyes locked onto his target with his perception and the flying sword.
That was indeed zou ziwu’s main body. The middle-aged man was surrounded by a circle of soft purple-black light, which kept emitting power to control the surrounding monsters.
Facing this extremely fast sword, zou ziwu didn’t have any time to Dodge at all. He couldn’t even make a basic reaction.
It was too fast.
However, when the cloud-treading celestial sword hit him, the sound of metal clashing came from within. The celestial sword cut into the layer of purple light that was protecting zou ziwu.
The collision between the two released an extremely powerful energy fluctuation that spread in all directions. The scattered sword Qi almost swept away all the purple mud monsters around zou ziwu’s body.
Even zou ziwu himself was sent flying by this sword attack. He was in a sorry state.
But, after all, he had not been able to kill the Prime Minister of Great Yan.
Bai Nantian’s eyes dimmed as he felt that it was a pity.
This was a very good opportunity.
However, for the sake of suddenness and speed, Bai Nantian’s sword was mainly aimed at its accuracy and speed.
However, there was a gap between their cultivation bases. After all, zou ziwu was a veteran in the nascent soul realm. Moreover, it was not as if zou Zi Wu had not taken any precautions against Bai Nantian’s swift sword attack. He knew that it would be too late for him to Dodge or defend after white Southern Angel attacked. The only thing he could do was to set up defensive measures around him before she attacked.
Zou ziwu’s caution paid off. Without the protection of the purple light around him, Bai Nantian’s sword would have taken his head off.
After being hit, zou ziwu’s figure disappeared once again. He was hidden among the purple mud monsters and disappeared without a trace.
Bai Nantian could not detect where zou Zi Wu was hiding.
The Prime Minister of Great Yan, who had been waiting with great caution, would definitely hide even more carefully after he had suffered a loss and was injured. It would be too difficult to catch him again.
At this point, Bai Nantian finally had the thought of retreating.
Although he was unwilling, he had no other choice.
If they were to continue fighting, he could still ensure that he would be safe for the next two hours. After an hour, his true essence, physical strength, and spirit would be severely depleted. If he chose to retreat, he might face a greater risk. If zou ziwu were to stop him with all his might, he might really die Here.
However, he wasn’t confident that he could find zou ziwu’s real body within two hours and try to behead him again.
He wasn’t confident that he could find zou ziwu, who was hiding even better and deeper, and he wasn’t confident that he could kill him in one strike.
Since that was the case, retreating first and then finding an opportunity was a better choice.
If he couldn’t solve this problem by himself, then he would invite another senior martial uncle over.
After making his decision, the cloud-treading immortal sword flew back and protected Bai Nantian as they rushed out of the formation.
“I’ve changed my mind,” Zou Zi Wu’s voice rang out, ” Bai Nantian, it’s better for you to leave your life here.
“If you have the ability, then come.” Bai Nantian did not take the other party’s threat to heart at all.
Based on zou ziwu’s current performance, he did not think that the other party had the ability to make him stay. Unless zou ziwu revealed his true self and brought out even more powerful abilities. That would indeed pose a greater threat. However, if zou Zi Wu dared to do that, it would be a great opportunity for Bai Nantian. By then, they would have to see who would be the one to kill who based on their own abilities.
Just as he was thinking about it, a purple mud monster pounced at him. He didn’t care and slashed at it.
However, this time, he wasn’t killed.
The monster even opened its arms and exposed its chest, letting the immortal sword Pierce into its body. However, the sword Qi that burst out should have been able to dismember it, but in reality, it was not.
Behind the purple mud monster, more and more monsters entered its body. In the blink of an eye, his body had become many times larger than before.
A huge fist, accompanied by a stinky wind, smashed towards his head.
Bai Nantian dodged the attack by a hair’s breadth.
He didn’t want to continue to be entangled with the other party. He couldn’t afford to offend him, so why couldn’t he hide?
He changed his direction and accelerated in an instant, ready to leave the battlefield.
However, at that moment, he felt something sweet in his throat and began to cough loudly.
This feeling was exactly the same as the previous outbreak of the disease, but it was even more frightening. haven’t I always been paying attention to my body’s condition? if there are any signs of the virus invasion, I will get rid of it in my body, right? ” Why did it still turn out like this?
“For every 100% you remove, half of it will be secretly left behind and gradually accumulate in your body. ‘Bai Nantian, I’ve asked you to leave a long time ago. It’s a pity that you insisted on staying. If you had left five minutes ago, I wouldn’t have been able to make you stay. As for now, you’re the one who insisted on giving me the chance to kill you. You can’t blame me for that.”
Bai Nantian wanted to reply but he could not stop himself from coughing. There was even blood flowing out from the corner of his mouth.
The purple mud monster that had already become huge was still expanding. It stretched out its huge hand and tried to cover Bai Nantian.
Even under such circumstances, zou ziwu’s true form was still not revealed. He did not give them a chance to turn the tables!
