Chapter 236: Blood Threadworm (3)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The inner sect disciples of the Nine Suns Sect cheered in excitement.
A smug look flashed across Peng Junqin’s face. He controlled the Five Qi
G.o.d-subduing Token to continue attacking the other Blood Sea Sect disciples, wanting to take this opportunity to kill a few more enemies.
But at this moment, a line of blood suddenly hit the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token. With a clang, the token was pushed back.
Peng Junqin was shocked. He raised his head and saw the tall man put down his hand.
The tall man repelled the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token with a single strike, instantly raising the morale of the Blood Sea Sect disciples who had fallen back. They all shouted excitedly, saying that Senior Brother Jiang was amazing.
Peng Junqin seemed to have thought of something when he heard Senior Brother Jiang’s name. His expression changed drastically as he blurted out, “You are Jiang Wanying!”
The tall man raised his eyebrows and sized up Peng Junqin a few times.
“Since you know my name, you can’t be an ordinary disciple in the Nine Suns Sect. Tell me your name. You have the right to let me know your name before you die!”
Peng Junqin was infuriated by Jiang Wanying’s disdainful tone, but he didn’t retort. Instead, he let out a cold snort.
“Jiang Wanying, don’t think that you can defeat us just because you have the advantage in numbers. The Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token in my hand isn’t to be trifled with!”
Jiang Wanying placed his hands behind his back and glanced at Peng Junqin with disdain.
“Advantage in numbers? You think too highly of yourself!”
He waved his sleeve and said coldly,
“You guys take care of the others!”
He planned to personally deal with Peng Junqin and the inner disciples.
The Blood Sea Sect disciples who were besieging Peng Junqin and the others responded in unison. Without hesitation, they abandoned their target and turned to attack the people from the academy.
Seeing this scene, not only weren’t the inner sect disciples relaxed, but their expressions became even more solemn.
Seeing their expressions, Jiang Wanying sneered. Suddenly, a red light flashed on his body, and three blood shadows left his body and pounced at the inner sect disciples with a murderous aura.
Compared to the blood souls summoned by the other disciples in Blood Sea Sect, Jiang Wanying’s were clearly more condensed. In the dark cave, if one didn’t observe carefully, one would not be able to tell those blood souls from ordinary people.
This alone showed that Jiang Wanying’s cultivation was far above all the other Blood Sea Sect disciples!
Seeing the three blood souls charging toward his fellow disciples, Peng Junqin was about to activate the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token to kill them when he heard Jiang Wanying’s sinister sneer.
“You still have time to care about others?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Peng Junqin suddenly felt a cold aura coming from his side. He glanced at it from the corner of his eye and saw a blood-colored thread coming at him at high speed.
As a heretic sect, the Blood Sea Sect disciples had many strange and inexplicable methods. Peng Junqin didn’t dare to try his luck, so he immediately turned the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token around to face it.
With a clang, the blood thread hit the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token. Both sides trembled and flew backward.
With this pause, Peng Junqin finally saw the true appearance of the blood line that blocked the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token twice in a row. It was a blood-colored poisonous insect the size of a pebble!
The attack failed, and the blood insect pounced over again. Peng Junqin didn’t dare to underestimate it and hurriedly controlled the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token to meet it.
The blood insect and the jade pendant collided several times in the air, and each time, they were equally matched.
Peng Junqin was shocked and bewildered.
No matter how one looked at it, this blood insect was a Yin item. Facing the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token that specialized in restraining Yin items, it could fight evenly without being at a disadvantage. It just wasn’t normal!
In another clash, the blood insect trembled violently, but it didn’t take a step back. On the other hand, the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token retreated quite a few meters.
When Peng Junqin saw this, he suddenly realized that something was wrong and hurriedly put away the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token. With a look, he realized that the spiritual light on the treasure had dimmed a lot. It was obvious that it had suffered considerable damage.
Seeing this, Peng Junqin had a flash of inspiration. He suddenly thought of a strange spell unique to the Blood Sea Sect and couldn’t help but cry out in surprise.
“Blood Threadworm!”
Hearing Peng Junqi’s exclamation, Jiang Wanying snorted coldly.
“You’re quite knowledgeable!”
Peng Junqin’s heart sank.
The Blood Threadworm was a well-known brutal spell of the Blood Sea Sect.
It was called a spell, but it could also be said to be an extremely special beast-taming technique.
After the Blood Sea Sect disciples advanced to the Bright Aperture Stage, they would implant an insect egg in their bodies and hatch it with spiritual essence. Then, they would summon it outside their bodies and feed it with a vast amount of human and beast flesh to nurture it into an insect.
This insect beast was called the Blood Threadworm.
Not only could the Blood Threadworm taint Dharma treasures and wear down spiritual light, but it could also devour flesh and blood to nourish itself.
In a battle with the enemy, once the worm felt exhausted, it would take the initiative to devour the enemy’s flesh and blood, turning it into nutrients to nouris.h.i.tselfs and replenis.h.i.tsr consumption.
At an advanced stage, the blood insects could cover the sky and the earth. No matter how high one’s cultivation level was, one could only try to avoid them.
Peng Junqin didn’t expect to be so unlucky as to encounter a Blood Sea Sect expert who had cultivated the Blood Threadworm.
Although the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token specialized in restraining Yin items, the Blood Threadworm also countered Dharma treasures. Both sides were equally matched and restrained. The advantage of the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token instantly disappeared.
If it was any other time, Peng Junqing might have been able to give it his all. After all, although the Blood Threadworm could wear down the spiritual light of Dharma treasures, it would consume its own life force.
As a profound armament, the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token had abundant spiritual light. It was enough to last until the Blood Threadworm’s vitality was exhausted.
However, the problem was that there were other people around. To the Blood Threadworms, they were all great supplements to replenish their vitality. It was simply wishful thinking to use the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token to exhaust them!
As if to verify his guess, the Blood Threadworm suddenly turned around and pounced at a Nine Suns Sect disciple not far away.
Peng Junqin’s expression changed drastically as he shouted anxiously, “Watch out!”
Unfortunately, it was too late. The Blood Threadworm was extremely fast, and the inner sect disciple couldn’t dodge in time. With a poof, the blood thread pierced through his chest, and he fell to the ground. Before he could even scream, his flesh and blood were sucked dry.
The Blood Threadworm crawled out of the shriveled corpse. Its entire body was filled with blood energy, and it had already recovered to its peak.
Peng Junqin’s scalp went numb as he watched. He felt a chill run down his spine..
