Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 128: Corpse Qi

By the time Ning got up, she already had her palm on top of the manʼs bald head and it was starting to rot quite fast.

Ning used the Twin Step movement technique along with his Qi to boost himself forward and kicked the woman. The woman was once again fast enough to block herself.

She slammed on the rubble behind her and got back up with no damage. ”Haha, itʼs over boy. He will start fighting for me now,” the woman said with an evil grin. ”Just look at his rotti— ”

Ningʼs arm was placed on the bald manʼs head as he slowly pulled the Yin Qi on him. His head stopped rotting and even got back its previous brilliance.

”Wha— What did you do?” the woman shouted as he ran forward and swung her sword at Ning.

Ning lifted the hand back and grabbed the spear with both his hands as he blocked the woman.

TING

A loud sound appeared as the sword clashed with the spear shaft. Ning had no problem blocking the attack, however, the woman stared in shock as her sword was chipped a bit.

”You!,” she shouted and was about to attack once again when she noticed something. Her hands that were previously very blue were slowly starting to get warmer color. She was losing her Qi.

A mild buzzing sound came from Ning as it slowly started to get louder. The woman looked at him, a little fear showing in her eyes as she said, ”What exactly did you do? What did you do to my Corpse Qi?”

ʼCorpse Qi?ʼ Ning finally learned the name of the Unique Yin Qi that he had been struggling with for so long.

”You BASTARD!!” the woman screamed and slammed the sword on his staff once again. The sword didnʼt chip away this time, however.

ʼSheʼs getting weaker?ʼ Ning realized. ʼIs it because Iʼm taking away the corpse qi?”

Ning immediately started to take in as much corpse Qi as he could and the womanʼs skin slowly lost all of its blue colors. She was now just a regular 7th Qi Condensation realm cultivator.

The woman was freaking out of her mind as she could feel herself losing most of her strength. ”Oh no,” she immediately turned around and started running away.

But Ning wasnʼt going to let that happen. He immediately dashed to where she was and made a massive horizontal swing with his spear like it was a baseball bat.

The woman realized she was being attacked and immediately used a technique to have her sword glow blue. She put the sword to her left to block the incoming spear. However, she vastly underestimated Ningʼs strength now that she no longer had the corpse qi.

The sword was not only unable to stop the spear, it actually got pushed towards the woman and ended up being what cut her body in half.

Even in death, her face could only keep the expression of disbelief.

Seeing that the woman was dead, Ning turned back to the man to help him. Fortunately, only his leg was cut a little and he would be fine once he got some medicinal treatment.

Ning got him his staff back and the man limped back towards the Physician guild. Ning on the other hand ran elsewhere to gather more corpse Qi to destroy it.

ʼI can help the people win more fights if I steal away the enemyʼs Qi,ʼ he thought. He then ran around looking for places where fights were taking place.

He encountered another fight between a woman and another woman who was using a bird and a cat monster. She was part of the Mist Origin sect and fighting with tamed beasts was just an everyday thing for them.

The woman, however, was clearly losing to the enemy. Ning saw a rotting, broken corpse of a snake a little further away. She had already lost another beast.

Ning got closer to help. That was when he realized that he knew the person.

”Sister Soria?” he said in surprise.

The woman looked to the side once and focused back on the battle. Now was not the time to get distracted.

”Oh, that man seems to know you. A friend?” the blue-skinned woman asked.

”Why does it matter to you?” Soria asked. Soria didnʼt get a good look at Ningʼs face so she couldnʼt tell who he was from the cloth and bald head.

The blue-skinned woman said nothing else and rushed forward to attack with her sword. Soria had her own sword which she used to block the incoming sword.

The woman however changed the course of the sword at the last second to block the incoming spear from the side. That, however, was useless.

The spear broke through the sword and slammed into her head, blowing it apart in one shot. The One True Spear strike was too much for her to handle.

”Oh, she died? She mustʼve been weaker than the last girl,” Ning said.

Soria looked in front of her in shock. The woman she had so much difficulty with and had even lost one of her tamed beasts to was killed just like that.

”How…” she couldnʼt articulate anything that was on her mind.

”Are you okay, Sister Soria?” Ning asked as he started to steal away all the Corpse Qi that she and her beasts might have gotten. The dead woman was in range, so Ning managed to steal from her as well.

”How do you know my name?” Soria asked. She still hadnʼt recognized who he was.

”Itʼs me, Ning. Itʼs only been a few months, how can you already forget me?” Ning asked.

Soriaʼs eyes went wide as she finally recognized him. ”You… how did you get so strong?” she asked in shock.

”Letʼs not worry about that right now. I need to go help some more people. Can you go get some help yourself?” Ning asked.

Soria nodded and started walking away. Now was not the time to catch up on missed time. Ning also left the place. He needed to help as many people as possible.
