Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 616 - Blood Will Ignition Pill

The needle made out of compressed spirit Qi traveled like lightning across the sky and hit the barrier in the distance.

~shung~

A rather strange sound was heard upon the impact, which was neither too loud neither too low. The barrier flickered and looked like it had absorbed all the force of the attack that Lin Mu had just sent out.

~Phew~

”YOU BASTARD! YOU DARE TRY TO ESCAPE!” The first elder who had barely managed to dodge the attack thundered.

But just as he said this.

~CRACK~

A loud audible crack could be heard coming from the barrier and all the runes that were present on it started to split apart.

”H-HOW! HOW CAN THIS BE POSSIBLE!?” The first elder exclaimed in utter shock.

The other elders who heard it were stunned as well and couldnʼt help but turn to look at it. But that was a huge mistake on their end.

~SLASH~

~splat~

The Adolescent Soul Stage Nascent Soul realm elders who had been fighting Jing Luo were caught off guard and instantly killed. One of them was decapitated, while the other two were cut in half at the waist.

”AHAHAHA! Look at these dumb elders, canʼt even focus on a battle!” Jing Luo roared.

He flicked his hand and threw out a black talisman that seemed to be rather eerie. The Nascent Souls of the three elders that were just leaving their dead bodies were struck by the talisman and yelled in pain.

”WHAT IS THIS! WHAT FIENDISH THING IS THIS?” The Nascent Souls cried.

Jing Luo made a clasping gesture and all three Nascent Souls exploded at once, along with the talisman.

~BOOM~

The detonation caused by these nascent Souls was not as strong as when a Nascent Soul self detonated, but it was still powerful enough to push away the other elders who had been fighting Lin Mu.

Lin Mu himself though was completely fine, his Mortal Strengthening Scripture easily bearing the damage as if it was nothing. The brown armor faintly glimmered on his body but was unnoticed by the elder, as they were currently trying to resist the explosion.

”ARGH!” The third elder cried in pain as a part of his torso was injured in the explosion.

The first elder had managed to dodge it again using his mist, but only barely. He looked around at the damage and gulped in fear.

ʼWhat kind of cultivators are even they? How can they fight so many of us at once and even kill? Are they geniuses of their sects or something?ʼ The first elder thought.

”YES! Thatʼs right! They must be the hidden trump cards of their sects!” The first elder said as flames of determination burned in his eyes.

A dangerous thought appeared in his mind and he gritted his teeth before taking out a pill from his spatial storage treasures. Lin Mu noticed this strange action and immediately used his spirit sense to see what kind of a pill it was.

But before he could do that, the first elder swallowed it.

~Gulp~

After swallowing it, the first elder looked at Lin Mu and Jing Luo with a crazed look.

”YOU TWO WILL NEVER ESCAPE! EVEN IF I HAVE TO PAY MY LIFE IN EXCHANGE!” The first elder declared.

Lin Mu was frankly stunned by this dedication.

ʼThe man can very well escape right now and get back up, but he still does not want to? What kind of loyalty is even this? This isnʼt even smart…ʼ Lin Mu thought.

”I donʼt think itʼs just loyalty that is causing him to act like this. No cultivator who had cultivated as long as him would act so stupidly. The better option would certainly be to get reinforcements and yet this man does not seem to want to do that.

I think the cause behind it is not loyalty, but rather… servitude.” Xukong suddenly said.

A thought appeared in Lin Muʼs mind and he immediately understood.

”So Gu Yao, huh… that skill of his is terrifying, even changing the basic personalities of a being…” Lin Mu muttered, but a hint of anger could also be seen in his eyes.

He reckoned had it not been for Gu Yao, this man and many others would not have died this day.

”GAH!” The first elder suddenly grunted in pain and coughed out a mouthful of blood.

The blood seemed to be a dark red and the elderʼs complexion also seemed to be changing. Soon his wrinkled skin start to get stretched as his body started to grow in size.

”Whatʼs happening to him?” Lin Mu said.

”QUICK! KILL HIM! He used a Blood Will Ignition pill!” Jing Luoʼs voice entered Lin Muʼs ears.

Upon hearing the name of the pill, Lin Mu recalled its effect. The Blood Will Ignition pill was another alchemical pill that fell into the category of potential igniting pills. They could increase the strength and cultivation of a person at the cost of their longevity.

It was a high grade pill that was effective even on Dao Shell realm cultivators, not to mention Nascent Soul realm ones. It could very well double or even triple oneʼs power, depending on the amount of longevity one was willing to burn.

~whoosh~

~whoosh~

~whoosh~

Jing Luo had already acted upon seeing the pill and send out all seven spears at the first elder.

~DENG~

But before they could reach him, the third elder withdrew what looked like a plain Grey shawl from his spatial storage treasure. The shawl expanded to a size of over fifty meters and covered the seven spears that were coming here.

”I wonʼt let the first elderʼs sacrifice go in vain!” The third elder said, his eyes bloodshot as well.

Blood spilled out from his nose and the corner of his lips, but the man still held on. The shawl trembled as it struggled to hold the seven spears.

”If seven are not enough, then take more!” Jing Luo yelled as the Axe and dagger were thrown out as well.

But just as they were about to injure the third elder…

~KABOOM~
