The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 1100 - 600: Devastating Sneak Attack (Part 2)

This "Jiu Mo" turned out to be an outsider imitating her voice to impersonate her! She was still leaning closely against Ning Xiaoxian, who shouted angrily, her right hand quickly lifted, twisting the opponent’s neck. Her action was full of indignation and brute force, only to hear a "crack," and this assassin’s neck had already been twisted off by her reverse hand, only loosely attached by flesh. But this person was truly fierce, without a head, the strength in their hands didn’t weak, and instead fiercely pushed the weapon three inches deeper, almost embedding the entire vicious weapon deeply into her body.

When this person attempted the assassination, it triggered her Protective Gang Qi, yet sohow this unknown demon species managed to silently break through its defense. As the sharp spike penetrated, her muscles tensed, clamping the spike tightly in place. Years of painstaking practice in the Guiding Technique showed its effect, otherwise, this thrust would have pierced straight through her frail body.

She let go of the corpse but was pulled as her body swayed—because the guy was still firmly holding onto the sharp spike. Ning Xiaoxian reached to pry open its fist, only to find out this spike was actually part of its arm! This must be a demon similar to a mantis, with sharp bone spikes naturally at the ends of its limbs; this assassination was rely a partial shift to its True Body. To disentangle herself from this corpse’s grasp, she’d have to chop off its hand! Considering this, it’s not surprising it was still so fierce with its head twisted off. Insect Demons have a far more tenacious Life Force than ordinary demons.

At this mont, the sand beast’s attack had already arrived. Though large in size, it wasn’t stupid; seeing Ning Xiaoxian severely injured before it, naturally, it wanted to seize an advantageous mont, sending in another hard hit, faster than before. It seed as if the gust of wind it caused would blow off her petite fra, and she realized this seemingly dumb brute was holding back earlier, waiting for her to drop her guard to deliver this deadly strike!

She barely straightened up her body, when a sharp pain suddenly exploded in her waist, making her vision darken as if about to double over—the assassin’s strike was precise and deliberate, not piercing her body, but severely damaging her internal organs. Besides her muscles being violently torn, her left kidney wasn’t spared this ti. Even with her endurance, this was nearly unbearable trauma!

In the Five Elents, the kidney governs water, its essence vaporizing and affecting the balance of bodily fluids. Cultivators, despite their strong bodies, place even more importance on internal organ maintenance. Many mantras say sothing akin to "the kidney is the water organ, governing bodily fluids." This assassin’s attack was extrely insidious, entering through the wound made by the Green Rope Sword, cutting through muscles, blood vessels, tendons, and finally damaging the organ. Internal organ and bone injuries are most troubleso; she didn’t need to look closely to know that with her constitution, such an injury wouldn’t heal in less than four to five days of rest under normal circumstances. But where could she find ti to heal now?

The sand beast’s fist was already in front of her, the heavy power carrying a fierce wind, seemingly about to blow away her thin fra. She knew that taking this hit head-on in her current condition would be unwise; tensing her full strength would rip open the wound further, accelerating blood loss, while the tearing effect of the Green Rope Sword hadn’t disappeared, she could feel the wound writhing, desperately trying to expand.

She could only toughen herself by using Divine Power to lock the wound, grabbing the assassin’s corpse with one hand and lightly pressing against the sand beast’s incoming fist with the other. At this mont, her judgnt was still remarkably precise; she surprisingly advanced instead of retreating, lightly leaping forward. Before the opponent’s punch force was fully used, she grabbed the assassin’s corpse and soared into the air, her right foot’s toes exerting force in the opposite direction, borrowing the sand beast’s power to fly horizontally out!

This punch from the sand beast, not only didn’t knock her down on the spot but instead beca the East Wind she borrowed force from, allowing her to quickly skim towards Qi Zai’s direction. Given her current condition, she likely couldn’t run so fast on her own stamina.

Yet, having used force, even though she put her entire weight on her right leg, any movent affected her entire body, naturally pulling the wound. After landing, her steps faltered, and her face turned pale. She couldn’t care about much else, slicing the assassin’s arm off with a reverse sword, finally tossing the body aside.

She didn’t dare to pull out the sharp spike inside her body, even though it seed coated with terrible poison, actively spreading. She could feel the numbing itch from within her body. One must know that the forelimbs of mantis-like creatures are barbed with serrated hooks; recklessly pulling it out might indeed cause her to bleed to death.

She was now only fifteen ters from Qi Zai, even with the obstructive white fog, he could sense her presence, especially slling the dense blood scent on her. A cry of alarm ca from him, rushing towards her!

She gritted her teeth, withstanding the dreadful pain from inside her body, while shoving dicine pills into her mouth, she dashed swiftly towards Qi Zai’s direction. Just needing Qi Zai to shield her, she would be able to free her hands.

At this mont, Ning Xiaoxian’s body, though gravely wounded, her mind beca increasingly clear: soone in the shadows must have exploited the situation on the field to set a trap for her, and this person might not be Jin Wuhuan!

Was it Elder Qi, or soone from the Mingshui Sect, or perhaps Yin Jiu You? In the dense fog, how did the opponent precisely locate her and Qi Zai? (To be continued.
