Chapter 432: Chapter 91: The Power of Archery, diocre People in Survival! (Requesting Monthly Votes!)_3
Through the crystalline jade-like bones, one could vaguely see the bone marrow beneath, and the red blood vessels and nerves.
The next mont,
he felt a severe pain transmitting from his bones.
The bones at the top of his fist began to shatter.
The powerful impact also suddenly shot him into the ice below, dropping into the bone-chillingly cold waters of the lake.
…
Below the cliff,
under Jiang Ning’s powerful sight,
he clearly saw the collision between the arrow and Guardian Xing.
He saw that although the arrow’s power was great, directly lifting away the flesh from his fist and wrist,
it lost its unstoppable montum against the jade bones infused with Wind and Thunder Power.
That was why the arrow had shot Guardian Xing into the waters.
If the arrow had been strong enough, the result would have been different.
It would have pierced right through his right arm, reducing it to flesh and bone dust.
Just as he had done previously to the Martial Arts Sixth Grade who had the Golden Box on a night,
unleashing an arrow with the power of Wind and Thunder which had gone straight through his chest back to front, turning his heart into ash in an instant.
That was a display of being truly unstoppable.
On the other side,
the Wind God Envoy moved towards Jiang Ning ghostlike, akin to a white specter.
He too had witnessed the collision between the arrow and Guardian Xing.
Seeing the spread of blue lightning within the lake waters beneath his feet, anger flashed in his eyes.
“Foolish!!”
At this mont, he wanted to point at Guardian Xing and say these two words.
With him in the lead, how dare Guardian Xing use his fist to block such a terrifying arrow?
It was sheer idiocy.
At the sa ti,
within the icy lake waters,
Cough cough—
Guardian Xing coughed twice.
Then, looking at his own right arm, he couldn’t help but sharply inhale.
He had taken the arrow head-on, thinking he would suffer a minor injury that would heal quickly—
a light wound that would let him rightfully stay back, allowing all the tasks within the sect to be handed over to the Wind God Envoy.
But he hadn’t expected that just blocking a single arrow,
his right hand would beco covered in bloodstains, and the flesh of his wrist and palm seed as if it had been sliced away into nothingness,
leaving only the skin-wrapped jade bones.
He clenched his fist; under the pull of the nerves inside the bones, his skeletal right hand clenched tight as a fist.
Hiss—
He couldn’t help but take another sharp breath.
Having lost the flesh, just making a fist caused him unusual pain.
Moreover, he saw many fractures in the bones of his fist due to the power of that arrow.
Several cracks also appeared on the entire bony palm.
This was enough to show how serious the injury was.
Jade bones were indeed tough and strong,
but precisely because they were tough and strong, once injured, it was even more difficult to heal.
And the healing process was also very difficult.
Even if he transford into a state of Divine Descendant with a regeneration ability akin to immortality, it could not make the bones heal quickly.
“That Jiang Ning is indeed terrifying!” Guardian Xing muttered with a light sigh.
He had spent these days in Luoshui County and had learned a lot.
Because he understood more, his wariness towards Jiang Ning grew.
That was why, even though he was acting with the Wind God Envoy today, he had chosen to step back half a step.
Hence, he opted to get injured on purpose.
But he had not expected that a deliberate light injury would turn into such a troubleso one.
This kind of injury, although not so severe that he had to transform into a Divine Descendant state to recover,
would still take at least a month or two to heal properly.
That was the special nature of his being a Divine Descendant of the Blood and Flesh God.
Having beco a Divine Descendant, even if he did not transform into that state,
his physical recovery ability was much stronger than martial artists at the sa level.
Especially at his core level, the more blessings he received from the gods,
ordinary flesh wounds would heal in almost no ti, usually within the ti it took to finish a cup of tea.
Therefore, although the injury seed quite severe, he was not eager to transform into the Divine Descendant state and let the injuries heal quickly.
After all, every ti he transford, even for him, sanity was inevitably lost a bit.
If this continued, there would co a day when he would completely lose his sanity and beco a puppet of the gods.
But as long as he didn’t transform and didn’t change his form, he wouldn’t slide into that abyss.
And he could use the injury on his body as an excuse not to participate with the Wind God Envoy in the assassination mission against Jiang Ning.
