Chapter 994: Chapter 994: Trouble from the Heavens
The Black Mist Forest is a small part of the Heavenly Border Mountain, nad for its perpetual black mist.
Within the black mist dwells an Ink-Scale Python, a demon beast with cultivation at the peak of Foundation Establishnt Ninth Layer.
The Black Mist Forest is the territory of the Ink-Scale Python.
However, at this mont, a giant python lay on the ground, over ten ters long, but its abdon was carved open, and there was a bloody hole on its head.
Beside the Ink-Scale Python, Chen Nan took out the Blood Gourd, uncorked it, and the massive python corpse was absorbed into the gourd.
Not far away, Anan ran over, looking at Chen Nan with admiration, almost stars shining in her eyes.
"Senior is so aweso, this is already the third demon beast at the peak of Foundation Establishnt!"
Looking at her deanor, Chen Nan felt bitter inside, unable to express it.
It felt as if he ca to hunt demon beasts with a cheering squad in tow.
If not for the map, Chen Nan wouldn’t have brought her along.
A few days ago, Chen Nan ntioned wanting to go out to hunt demon beasts, Anan insisted on coming along and contributed a map.
Thanks to the map marking the locations of demon beasts, Chen Nan’s efficiency was high, killing over a hundred demon beasts in just two days.
Even demon beasts at the peak of Foundation Establishnt, he killed three.
These demon beast corpses would eventually turn into demon spirit pills, allowing Chen Nan to cultivate for a period.
"Alright, we have enough now, we should head back."
"So soon?" Anan showed a hint of disappointnt, wanting to have more alone ti with Chen Nan, but quickly smiled again.
"Then let’s head back."
Chen Nan nodded, preparing to return the way they ca when his expression suddenly changed, pulling Anan aside quickly.
As they moved away, a shadow heavily crashed at the spot they had just been, a mont slower and they would have been hit.
Anan gasped, "What was that?"
But upon realizing she was held in Chen Nan’s arms, she forgot all other concerns, her face flushing red.
Chen Nan, however, didn’t notice Anan’s change, and released her, raising an eyebrow in surprise.
Because what just crashed onto the ground was a person!
But this person was covered in blood, their aura faint, clearly injured and unconscious.
With long hair scattered and despite the blood on the face, one could see a delicate face.
The scent of blood in the air had a trace of fragrance, showing it was a woman.
Although Anan wanted to be held by Chen Nan longer, she knew it was an ergency, so she curiously looked at the person on the ground.
"Oh? She’s poisoned."
As a priest, Anan had been controlling Gu and playing with poison since childhood, so she easily discerned the person was poisoned.
Chen Nan nodded slightly, then tugged Anan to leave.
"Senior, we’re not going to help her?"
"This person is gravely injured and poisoned, she must have fled here, maybe with pursuers behind her, I want no trouble."
Chen Nan explained briefly, moving even faster.
Unfortunately, he wanted to avoid trouble, yet trouble ca to him instead.
Five figures suddenly sprang from the forest, clad in black robes, hoods over their heads, obviously not the timid sort.
"Outsiders? Kill them too!"
The leading black-robed figure saw Chen Nan and Anan’s backs and imdiately ordered.
Then, three black-robed n shot out suddenly, like black lightning through the forest, quickly blocking Chen Nan and Anan’s path.
"Sigh."
Chen Nan let out a deep sigh, the last thing he wanted to see happening had happened, quietly placing Anan behind him.
"If I say I didn’t see anything, can you let us go?"
One black-robed man removed his hood, revealing a shiny bald head, sneering sinisterly.
"Ha, anyone who sees us must die, what do you think?"
Anan frowned, feeling inexplicably repulsed by these black-robed n.
But it was clearly the first ti she had seen them.
Chen Nan shook his head, sighing helplessly.
"I didn’t want any trouble, why do you insist on seeking death? I just want a quiet half year, is it that hard?"
This seed directed at the three black-robed n, yet also like he was talking to himself.
Upon hearing Chen Nan’s words, the black-robed n burst into laughter, shoulders shaking.
"That’s hilarious, is he saying we’re seeking death?"
"A Foundation Establishnt Third Layer, a Foundation Establishnt Fourth Layer, just ants, so ignorant!"
"Haha, is this kid scared stupid?"
The three ridiculed unabashedly, without a care.
For they were all cultivators at the peak of Foundation Establishnt Ninth Layer, one step away from the Golden Core Stage, such power made them unafraid of Chen Nan and Anan.
"Senior, they’re so annoying."
Chen Nan nodded, agreeing deeply.
"Then... make them quiet."
The two conversing at ease thoroughly infuriated the three black-robed n.
"Ungrateful wretches, I’ll torture you till you wish for death!"
He suddenly raised a hand, and a shadow flew from his sleeve, viciously striking towards Chen Nan.
It was a Gu insect shaped like an ant, but thumb-sized, with wings behind it.
Chen Nan snorted disdainfully, simply pinched the Gu insect with his thumb and forefinger, releasing a small snake’s aura, and the Gu insect cald instantly.
In fact, it shivered in Chen Nan’s hand!
Chen Nan squeezed hard, crushing the Gu insect, wiping his hands with disdain.
Feeling the death of his Gu insect, the bald man’s eyes bulged.
"You dare kill my Gu insect? I’ll take your life!"
The other two black-robed n realized sothing was wrong too, how could a minor cultivator at Foundation Establishnt Third Layer crush their Gu insect?
Gu insects were supposed to be invulnerable to blades, impervious to fire and water, even a flying sword struggled to kill them.
In Chen Nan’s hand, they seed just like ordinary insects, totally abnormal!
The three attacked simultaneously, dozens of Gu insects flew from them, each vicious despite their thumb size.
Facing the oncoming Gu insects, Chen Nan walked forward leisurely, unleashing the aura of the King of Ten Thousand Gu.
The Gu insects halted mid-air, quivering as if eting a natural enemy.
In the end, they all fell to the ground, as if bowing to a king.
The three black-robed n were dumbfounded, what was going on?
Why had their Gu insects ceased all movent?
No matter how hard they urged, the Gu insects remained unresponsive.
This sank the black-robed n’s hearts, looking at Chen Nan with fear.
"Who...what are you?"
