Chapter 79

When the strongest of them, Yu Tong, fainted, the disciples of the Blood Sect and the Ghost Sect lost their will to fight. They shouted loudly, notifying Mo Xi to return quickly.

Mo Xi, who was surrounded by An Ying and others, had ghostly figures swirling around him. These ghostly figures were grotesque and terrifying, constantly attacking An Ying and the others.

Mo Xi originally intended to break through An Ying's defenses to kill Nie Tian, but soon realized that with his strength alone, it was impossible to achieve.

When he heard the urgent calls from behind, he immediately realized that Yu Tong had suffered a backlash and could no longer help them.

In fact, he had long understood that after swallowing five Blood Strengthening Pills, Yu Tong would be weakened, regardless of whether she could kill Nie Tian, and would only become a burden afterward.

"Next time, I will kill all of you!"

Mo Xi roared softly, and the ghostly figures suddenly swelled and attacked Zheng Bin and the others. He himself transformed, as if becoming a ghostly spirit, and suddenly drifted backward.

When he returned, he saw that the disciples of the Blood Sect had already carried Yu Tong on their backs.

"Go!"

Without any hesitation, he immediately gave the order, leading the remaining disciples of the Ghost Sect and the Blood Sect toward the ice region.

After he left, the ghostly figures that had been tearing at the crowd gradually became blurry and soon disappeared.

"Chase them!" Zheng Bin gritted his teeth.

An Ying also shouted, "That demoness of the Blood Sect must have encountered a problem. Otherwise, Mo Xi would never retreat! While Yu Tong cannot participate in the battle, we must kill as many of them as possible to avenge our fallen comrades!"

"Chase!"

The group quickly reached a consensus and pursued Mo Xi and the others, determined to kill all the disciples of the Ghost Sect and the Blood Sect in the Qing Huan Realm.

Behind them, only Jiang Miao remained by Nie Tian's side, looking at him with a complex expression.

Nie Tian, sitting on the ground with his eyes closed, emitted a surging blood qi.

A faint blood light occasionally emanated from Nie Tian's skin, enveloping him in a misty aura, making him appear mysterious and unfathomable.

In the mist, Nie Tian's body seemed to inflate and deflate like a balloon, sometimes swelling, sometimes becoming emaciated.

She did not know what had happened to Nie Tian, but she knew that even Yu Tong's Earth Net had failed to kill him.

Nie Tian, who was thought to be dead by An Ying, Jiang Lingzhu, and others, now had a steady breath and a strong, powerful heartbeat.

The vitality and blood qi emanating from Nie Tian were even more intense than before he was trapped by the Earth Net!

"What a strange person..." Jiang Miao muttered softly.

Nie Tian felt a burning heat all over his body, as if he had become a furnace, with every muscle and blood vessel expanding and contracting.

Even he did not know what was happening, but he knew that when his blood was almost drained by the crimson blood lines, his heart suddenly accelerated.

At that moment, he was extremely unwilling to accept his fate and wanted to reverse the situation, forcibly stopping the outflow of blood.

He actually succeeded!

When his heart beat in an incomprehensible manner, he felt an unknown force surge from his heart!

This force, once generated, seemed to instantly affect all his blood, even the blood that had been extracted by the crimson blood lines and had left his body, suddenly resonated with his heart.

At that moment, all the extracted blood was pulled back into his blood vessels by his heart.

Not only that, but the crimson blood lines themselves were also pulled and forcibly drawn into his body.

He did not know that these crimson blood lines were made from the blood of second-level spirit beasts, refined by the Blood Sect's unique blood refinement technique, turning them into weapons rich in blood qi.

He only knew that each crimson blood line contained abundant blood qi.

And now, all that blood qi had been incorporated into his blood vessels, mixing with his own blood!

He took deep breaths, and with each expansion of his blood vessels and muscles, his body seemed to inflate, as if his own blood was greedily absorbing the blood qi from the crimson blood lines.

The blood qi from numerous second-level spirit beasts, after being refined multiple times by his body, became nutrients for his blood, nourishing it.

During this process, he perceived with his mental awareness that his blood contained unknown, mysterious symbols.

He vaguely felt that his blood was different from that of ordinary people!

However, the secrets within his blood seemed to be deeply hidden, only surfacing in critical moments or when he was in dire straits.

Due to his insufficient cultivation level and the weakness of his body, he could not yet uncover the mysteries of his blood.

Absorbing and refining the blood qi from the crimson blood lines seemed to be an effective way to unlock the secrets of his blood.

Despite his many doubts, he did not interfere with the changes in his body but opened his mind, allowing his body to function in its unique way.

He himself became an observer, silently watching with his mental awareness.

After an unknown amount of time, he gradually realized that the blood qi from the crimson blood lines had completely disappeared into his blood.

His abnormal heartbeat had long returned to normal, and he no longer emitted a faint blood light.

He sensed again and found that the blood flowing through his body had gradually calmed down, and he could no longer feel its abnormality and wonder.

His dantian and spirit sea had not changed at all due to the absorption of the crimson blood lines.

His body did not seem to have become stronger, but he knew that his blood had undergone a small change.

However, after his heartbeat returned to normal, he could no longer detect anything special in his blood.

After carefully sensing everything and confirming that everything was back to normal, he opened his eyes.

"You're awake?" Jiang Miao looked at him, her face full of confusion and curiosity, as if waiting for a reasonable explanation.

"Thank you for staying by my side," Nie Tian smiled.

"It's what I should do," Jiang Miao said, a bit embarrassed, "You saved me twice, but I couldn't save you. All I could do was watch. I thought..."

She wanted to say, "I thought you were dead," and just wanted to see him one last time before he died, but seeing that Nie Tian now seemed fine and was even radiant, she quickly closed her mouth.

Nie Tian looked at Jiang Miao for the first time with serious eyes.

Jiang Miao, with her doll-like face, wore a dark green dress, had large eyes, and spoke timidly, like a rabbit that could be scared away at any moment.

Jiang Miao's appearance was just above average, not as outstanding as An Ying and Jiang Lingzhu, but she had a good heart, unlike An Ying and Jiang Lingzhu, who had many ulterior motives.

Although Jiang Miao might be a year older than him, in his eyes, she was a naive and innocent little sister.

"It's just because of the different environments we grew up in..." Nie Tian thought to himself.

From the time he understood things, he knew that Nie Donghai had lost his power, and he knew what his beloved aunt had suffered. Combined with the targeting by Nie Hong, Nie Yuan, and other Nie family members, he had always lived in the midst of family struggles.

Compared to his peers, he had matured much earlier and understood early on that Nie Donghai and Nie Qian had great expectations for him.

He had always been secretly striving, hoping to heal his grandfather's injuries and help his aunt seek justice one day.

Jiang Miao, on the other hand, was like a flower in a greenhouse, always pampered and never experiencing the coldness of the world.

The trial in the Qing Huan Realm was the biggest shock to Jiang Miao's life.

The warm environment had made Jiang Miao a gentle lamb, and perhaps only after the trial in the Qing Huan Realm would she slowly change and recognize the dangers of the world.

"I'm fine. The demoness seemed to run out of power at a critical moment and suffered a backlash," Nie Tian said calmly after some consideration. "After she suffered the backlash, the blood that had been extracted from me returned to my body. I used my method to slowly guide the blood back into my body and have now recovered."

"Oh, that's good," Jiang Miao nodded.

Of course, she knew that Nie Tian's explanation could not be the truth.

She clearly knew that Nie Tian was hiding something, but she wisely chose not to ask, despite her extreme curiosity.

The two of them chatted casually, waiting for An Ying and Jiang Lingzhu to return.

After a long time, Pan Tao and An Ying gradually appeared from a distance.

"Nie Tian! You're still alive?"

From a distance of several hundred meters, Pan Tao immediately let out an incredulous shout when he saw him.
