Chapter 162: Escape and Backlash
As the old Nascent Soul monster looked on in astonishment, the second Jianmu Dharma image slowly rose above Fang Xiao's head.
"That's impossible. Whose disciple are you?"
Generally speaking, elders would grant a life-saving method to their disciples, which shows that they have high hopes for them.
Fang Xiao actually released a projection of Dharma image again. Even though he was a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, he couldn't help but wonder whether it was the direct bloodline of a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage.
Now the demon corpse is completely unable to help him. Although he has the cultivation level of the middle Nascent Soul stage, the Jianmu Dharma Image is able to wrestle with the demon corpse in the late Nascent Soul stage with just its projection.
If he asked himself honestly, he couldn't guarantee that he could handle it even if he used all the other means.
In this situation, how could he dare to continue standing there? He immediately retreated at a high speed without any hesitation, and didn't even look at the demon corpse beside him.
He was not idle during the process of retreating. He saw an invisible object gathering above his head and quickly condensing into a strange insect with a bizarre appearance.
The moment the insect appeared, Fang Xiao felt the suppressed corpse poison in his body becoming restless, but after increasing the suppressing power of the Taiyin Divine Light, it stabilized again.
"Is this also some kind of Dharmakāya? It seems that the corpse poison in my body is just a secondary ability of this strange insect's Dharmakāya."
As the strange insect took shape, some faint insect chirping sounds seemed to be heard in the surrounding space.
This is not over yet. A colorful spirit bead shot out from the dantian of the Yuanying old monster. It was his life-saving magic weapon.
Fang Xiao just took a glance and felt his hands and feet itching. He was in a trance and couldn't help but wonder what kind of life magic weapon this was.
Before Fang Xiao could take a closer look, the pearl flew directly to the strange insect and merged with it.
Afterwards, he placed all kinds of magic weapons and refined corpses in front of him, as if he had already figured out the characteristic of Jianmu Dharma that it would directly lock onto the opponent, and judged that there was no time to evacuate its range, so he had to add some protection for himself.
There were so many methods that Fang Xiao was dazzled for a moment.
As the Jianmu Dharma Image took shape, this person had already retreated to a very far position, but it was indeed correct in its guess. In just a moment, he was locked onto by the Jianmu Dharma Image again, and his movements became extremely slow.
Time was running out and there was no time to waste. Fang Xiao immediately waved his hand and the Dharma image crushed down again.
If you look from the sky at this moment, the Jianmu statue looks like two pillars of heaven falling down here.
However, the Dharma image that was pressing down on the demon corpse was already beginning to show signs of weakness.
Fang Xiao did not intend to wait for the result, he directly set up the escape light and continued to head south, and he had already taken out the teleportation talisman in advance and held it in his palm.
'If this attack can kill this person, we can leave safely. But if he survives by chance and chases us, we can only use this teleportation talisman. However, this place is more than a million miles away from the North Sea, so we need to cross the border of the ice field by ourselves.'
Fang Xiao guessed that Beihai and the Demon Sect must have been fighting fiercely at this moment. If Fang Xiao still had the confidence to cross the battlefield, he could even join in.
Now that he is infected with corpse poison, he needs to suppress it with the Taiyin Divine Light at all times. If he does not have the supreme golden elixir in his body, the magic power of an ordinary cultivator will not be able to withstand the consumption of such top-level magical powers. If he travels through the battlefield in this state, there will inevitably be great risks.
On the other side, the Yuanying old monster from the Xuanshi Sect didn't even bother to look at Fang Xiao who was escaping. At this moment, his attention was all on the Jianmu above his head.
Looking between him and Jianmu, there was no trace of the magic weapons and refined corpses that had been arranged earlier. They had already been crushed by Jianmu.
Now only the strange insect form was left, still spitting out the corpse poison and struggling underneath it.
However, seeing how listless he looked, it was obvious that not only his Dharma image, but even his innate magic weapon that was integrated into the Dharma image had reached the point of exhaustion.
He glanced at the demon corpse in the distance. The Jianmu Dharma images on its arms flickered and seemed about to break, but he still sighed.
"That's too late."
The power of the strange insect's Dharma image here has been completely exhausted, and it began to shatter into pieces under the pressure of Jianmu, and even its innate magic weapon exploded on the spot.
After suffering such a severe blow, the man's face instantly turned as pale as paper, and even his eyes became dull and lifeless.
By this time, Jianmu had slowly fallen down, and he could still clearly decide between worsening injuries and death.
Then the whole person began to swell rapidly, and the next moment, with a loud bang, he chose to self-explode under Jianmu.
Suddenly, a black baby appeared not far away, holding a green storage bracelet. There was a faint shadow of a strange insect emerging behind him, and he looked even weaker.
Judging from the phantom of the Dharma image, this is exactly this person's Nascent Soul, but from his immature face, there is no similarity at all.
He self-destructed his physical body in order to delay the fall of the Jianmu Dharma Image, and then use the Nascent Soul to teleport out from under it.
Obviously he succeeded. The Jianmu Dharma image that lost its target shattered immediately and gradually dissipated into the air.
Although he lost his body, at least he saved his life.
At this moment, the demon corpse on the other side punched the extremely illusory Jianmu Dharma image into nothingness.
If he could hold on a moment longer, he could avoid this disaster.
Even though it had a baby face, it became hideous due to the endless hatred.
"You wanted to run away, but you caused me to lose my physical body. Then you should repay me with your physical body."
Then he flew to the front of the demon corpse, intending to take it with him to chase Fang Xiao.
However, to his surprise, the demon corpse remained motionless after receiving the order.
When he looked up, he was met with a pair of bloodthirsty and greedy eyes.
Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but be startled and was about to take out blood food for it from the storage bracelet.
At this moment, a red light struck him, and he had no time to react before he was grabbed by its claws.
"Stop, I am your master, you can't..."
The demon corpse didn't even listen to what he was saying and put it directly into its mouth.
Then his voice stopped abruptly, and only the creepy chewing sound continued to be heard.
After the demon corpse devoured the Nascent Soul, the demonic power around it suddenly increased. The thick demonic energy and corpse energy mixed together, and the surrounding ice surface was completely corroded.
However, after losing its master, the demon corpse has been standing there, seeming a little confused and not knowing what to do.
After a long time, it seemed to have thought of something and left this place directly. Looking at the direction it left, it was the location of the Xuanshi Sect.
At this time, Fang Xiao had already escaped tens of thousands of miles away, long out of the range of his spiritual sense, so he was not clear about the situation after he left.
All he could do was flee at full speed, not daring to stop for even a moment.
However, he didn't know that the Nascent Soul cultivator of the Xuanshi Sect had been killed by the backlash of the demon corpse that he regarded as his trump card.
