Chapter 1082: Chapter 1082: Snake Venom Saves Lives
Qin Sisi’s gaze fell on the Purple Gold Pearl glowing with violet light on her wrist, but she eventually shook her head. She couldn’t bear to use it, and even if she did, it would only neutralize one attack. Without a chance to escape, it was useless.
Distant water cannot quench a present thirst. Ye You was currently in the far-off Midair City and couldn’t rush over to save her.
It seed like she had reached a dead end, but Sisi refused to give up. She struggled to think if there was any way to reverse the situation.
This ti, she was blasted nearly a hundred ters away, creating so distance between her and the man in black. Her mind stirred. Enduring the severe pain coursing through her body, she flew in the opposite direction from the man in black.
Seeing Qin Sisi’s movents, the man in black sneered coldly, his magic wings flapping rapidly as he pursued her. At the sa ti, his hands ford seals once more, releasing new magic skills to attack Qin Sisi.
On one hand, their strength was inherently disparate; on the other, Qin Sisi was already gravely injured, her control over the Wings of Rainbow significantly weakened, and her flying speed noticeably slower than normal.
The man in black, by contrast, was in excellent physical condition. With his flying speed combined with the power of magic, Qin Sisi ultimately failed to escape and was struck once again by an energy wave that attacked from behind.
When she slamd heavily into the ground again, she realized she was utterly spent—no strength, no options. She couldn’t fight back nor could she escape. The heavens offered no path, and the earth no sanctuary.
Not long ago, she was celebrating finding Magic Crystal Stones in all three Demonic Beasts she had defeated, but calamity had followed swiftly after. Indeed, blessings and misfortunes often co hand in hand.
Recalling the three Demonic Beasts she had just killed, Qin Sisi’s thoughts stirred as ideas quickly ford in her mind.
The man in black had concealed his entire body and attacked without a word, evidently out of fear of exposing his identity. This ant she must have seen him before.
For sure, he was terrified of others discovering his pursuit of her. To prevent this from happening, he would likely take her corpse far away.
After all, the Taiyi Mountain Base wasn’t far from here. The Panhu family’s keen senses could easily uncover clues.
He would likely approach her, wouldn’t he? This was her only chance. If he decided to destroy her body on the spot, she could only resign herself to fate.
Qin Sisi lay motionless, blood pooling beneath her body and mud staining her clothes. She looked lifeless.
The man in black’s gaze was cold. Seeing Qin Sisi seemingly dead, a faint trace of satisfaction flashed across his brow, but out of caution, he approached slowly to inspect.
The aura around Qin Sisi was extrely feeble, the red light symbolizing the Magic Spirit barely flickering, as if it might extinguish completely at any second.
She wasn’t dead yet but was unquestionably close to death.
The man in black narrowed his eyes and raised the large blade in his hand. At this point, he didn’t need to rely on magic power anymore; just a bit of physical force with the blade would end Qin Sisi’s life. Afterward, he planned to carry her corpse far away and ensure Night You would never find out about this.
Just as the man in black’s blade was about to descend, Qin Sisi suddenly opened her eyes and lunged at his leg, biting down fiercely through the fabric.
She had secretly taken the Bodhi Pill and Spirit Revitalizing Pill, which improved her condition slightly, but she was still far from capable of directly confronting the man in black. At this mont, magic power was useless—her teeth beca her sharpest weapon.
Though the man in black was a battle-hardened veteran, he was taken aback by her sudden move. Qin Sisi’s bite was vicious, making him cry out in pain. Instinctively, he began to shake his leg violently, trying to fling Qin Sisi off.
If he had stuck to his original plan and swung his blade down, Qin Sisi might already have been dead. But the body’s reflexes were faster than the brain’s response. Attacked in the leg, he instinctively defended with his limb, delaying the action of his hand.
Qin Sisi bit down hard on the man in black’s leg, tearing through the fabric, piercing the skin, and sinking her teeth deep into his flesh.
Snake venom quickly seeped in. The venom worked by paralyzing the nervous system, its effect swift. By the ti the man in black realized he should swing his blade, his body was already betraying him.
Nonetheless, the blade staggeringly struck Qin Sisi, carving another deep wound into her already battered body, causing blood to gush endlessly.
Exhausted, Qin Sisi released her bite. Seeing the staggering form of the man in black, she realized she had succeeded.
Hurriedly, she used Silent Drizzle, a Water Attribute Magic Skill, to conjure water to rinse her mouth.
Among the three Demonic Beasts she had recently slain was a poisonous snake. Qin Sisi had recalled Teacher Yi Rou ntioning how snake venom could be used to make skincare products, so she had collected the venom from that snake with the intention of gifting it to Teacher Yi Rou.
While gambling on the chance that the man in black would approach her for her corpse, she had kept a mouthful of snake venom, which, when she bit down on his leg, seeped into his body through her teeth.
Although Qin Sisi was seriously injured, fortunately, she avoided having any wounds in her mouth, so the venom did not harm her.
She struggled to stand, her gaze fixed venomously on the man in black. She desperately wanted to know who he was. As soon as he passed out, she planned to rip off his veil and see his true face.
The man in black had collapsed, but he still retained a shred of rationality. Realizing he was poisoned, his hand flipped, revealing a Jade lting Pill in his palm.
Qin Sisi was shocked—he actually had a Jade lting Pill. His identity was undoubtedly extraordinary.
When the man in black put the Jade lting Pill into his mouth, Qin Sisi realized she couldn’t wait any longer—this was her last chance.
She raised the Moon Spirit Golden Feather and unleashed a Hell Flas attack on the man in black.
The Jade lting Pill took effect, clearing the man in black’s consciousness sowhat. He promptly utilized his magic power to form a Freezing Wall in front of himself, blocking the Hell Flas.
Qin Sisi’s body was in critical condition, and she lacked the strength to amplify her skill’s power. anwhile, the man in black’s physical state was gradually recovering.
She gritted her teeth—survival was paramount. If she delayed further, once the poison dissipated, she was as good as dead.
Qin Sisi no longer tangled with him, swiftly flapping the Wings of Rainbow and flying toward the distance.
The man in black’s gaze darkened. He was about to stand up and chase after her, but the stiffness in his body forced him to halt.
Poison was no trivial matter—at best, it would lead to a brief coma; at worst, it could severely deplete his vigor or even affect his future practice.
Qin Sisi might have escaped for now, but she wouldn’t evade him forever. If he wanted to kill her, there would be other chances. However, if his practice was affected, that was irreparable.
Though unwilling, the man in black ultimately gave up on the chase. He sat down cross-legged and began focusing on neutralizing the poison within his body.
