354: Chapter 354 Mutual Resentment

Only then did Jerry remember that there were still Corruptors watching them like tigers watching their prey!

But...

Why would Corruptors appear at this time?

Before Jerry could think further, his body was immediately submerged by a large number of wizard spells.

The Corrupted Wizards weren't very strong, only at the third-order level, so Nie Ning didn't pin his hopes on them.

Nie Ning adjusted his breathing as the god-forbidden ring slowly rotated at the hilt of xueyan bladeless.

As a massive amount of mana was injected into xueyan bladeless, the starlight-like blade was filled with white fusion elements.

Just then, a sharp sword qi tore through the Corrupted Wizards' spells, and Jerry rushed out from within, looking disheveled.

Seeing this, Nie Ning did not hesitate. He swung xueyan bladeless, and a white blade qi accompanied by dark red flames shot straight for Jerry.

Jerry's expression changed. Unable to run in time, he could only quickly pull a jade pendant out of his spatial ring.

The moment the blade qi arrived, a blue light flashed across the surface of the jade pendant, and a barrier immediately blocked his front.

'Bang!'

The white blade qi exploded, and the soaring firelight buried Jerry.

Under the massive impact of the blade qi, Jerry was still knocked down into the mire below.

A large crater was blasted into the ground. Jerry struggled to stand up in the pit, unable to stop himself from spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Looking at the shattered jade pendant in his hand, Jerry's face showed a look of pain and wariness.

Strong!

He was simply too strong!

How had he never heard of such a powerful figure before!

"You didn't die even from that? You truly are a scion of a great family."

Nie Ning landed near Jerry and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Given his attack just now, even a Fifth-Order would not have fared well if hit, yet Jerry didn't seem to have suffered very heavy injuries.

"You can't kill me. Why don't we both take a step back?"

Jerry stared fixedly at Nie Ning as he spoke slowly.

Facing a freakish individual like Nie Ning, whose stats were maxed out in every aspect, he no longer had the desire to continue fighting.

"That is indeed a good idea, but I clearly have the advantage right now."

Nie Ning smiled, but his eyes were full of vigilance.

He didn't know how many life-saving trump cards the other party had, and it was somewhat unrealistic to try and kill him in a short time.

"You may have the advantage, but your teammates might not. I assume those Corruptors are also controlled by you?"

Jerry glanced at the pile of rubble on the left, behind which a Flesh Spider was hiding.

On the other side, Xiao Guang had fallen into a complete disadvantage, relying almost entirely on his intact bloodline power to hold on.

If it were a normal Shapeshifting exotic beast, it would probably have been beaten senseless by now, but Xiao Guang only had some minor to moderate injuries.

Relatively speaking, things were better on Jerky Bear Head's side.

Facing a Corruptor like the Dried Meat Bear, the Fifth-Order Wizard opposite him was constantly hesitant to act, and was even faintly at a disadvantage.

This was because Jerky Bear Head's methods were unpredictable, the Power of Corruption it contained was startlingly strong, and it had a Flesh Spider assisting from the side.

The Fifth-Order Wizard was overwhelmed, and even one of his legs had been eroded by the Power of Corruption.

"As long as I capture you, I believe they wouldn't dare move recklessly."

Nie Ning didn't agree, but in truth, he was also uncertain.

He couldn't help it; he hadn't expected Jerry to be so difficult to deal with at the start.

The Sharpness Power he mastered was even more exaggerated than the amplification of the god-forbidden ring. He couldn't figure out how it worked at all; it had a rhythm of 'one force breaking ten thousand laws'.

Furthermore, the opponent had many life-saving items. In the battle just now, he had already damaged six mystic tools.

Especially that last jade pendant, which had blocked his fatal blow.

"Then you'll have to be able to catch me first."

Jerry showed a look of disdain, but he was very wary in his heart.

"Why don't we both take a step back?"

After thinking about it, Jerry continued.

There was no longer any point in continuing the fight. He had used many of his life-saving methods, and continuing would only become more and more disadvantageous for him.

"We'll call them to a stop together, and then each retreat ten kilometers."

Nie Ning thought for a moment and said in a heavy voice.

If the opponent's reinforcements arrived, he might not be able to leave even if he wanted to.

For a moment, both sides harbored their own schemes, feeling extremely wary of each other.

Jerry looked at Nie Ning: "Fine, but you must remove the barrier set up here."

Nie Ning nodded. Then, the two of them simultaneously stopped their respective team members who were fighting and removed the Gale Spirit-Shrouding Array arranged on the perimeter.

After doing all this, they had no mood for idle chatter. The two glanced at each other and retreated toward their own formations.

"You just wait, don't even dream of escaping the pursuit of a Sixth-Order Wizard!"

Once they were a certain distance away, Jerry began to shout provocatively at Nie Ning.

"Only primary schoolers go crying to their parents. For an idiot like you, I could beat ten with one hand!"

Nie Ning didn't show any weakness and started his counter-roasting mode.

Although the two were shouting insults at each other, their retreating steps did not stop.

Both observed their surroundings with cautious expressions, fearing the other had left some hidden trick to ambush them.

...

...

At this point, the two sides were about ten li apart, but the other side clearly didn't want to just let Nie Ning and the others leave and began to chase after them.

Although both sides were wary, what Jerry and his group had to do was very simple: just don't lose the other party.

Once the other Transcendents from the family arrived, those two who could control Corruptors would have no choice but to kneel and beg for mercy.

Looking at Jerry and the others who had already converged on the opposite side, Nie Ning took the injured Xiao Guang and quickly rushed toward the forest below.

Upon reaching the ground, Nie Ning directly summoned Jerky Bear Head.

After reaching the fourth-order, Jerky Bear Head's teleportation distance had increased, reaching about 500 meters.

Although it was still a distance that could be covered in an instant for fourth or fifth-order Transcendents, they were currently about ten kilometers apart, so the room for maneuver was much greater.

As Jerky Bear Head swallowed the two in one bite, by the time Jerry and the others arrived, the two had already disappeared.

"How is that possible!"

Jerry looked around, his face incredibly ugly.

The Spiritual Power of the other Fifth-Order Transcendents spread out toward the surroundings, trying to find traces of Nie Ning and his companion.

"Over there!"

A Fifth-Order's Spiritual Power was indeed powerful; they actually discovered a faint abnormal energy fluctuation several hundred meters away.

Hearing this, Jerry's spirit was bolstered, and he hurriedly followed the direction pointed out by the Fifth-Order.

After several back-and-forth turns, one of the Fifth-Order Wizards called a stop to Jerry, who wanted to keep chasing.

"Stop chasing, we won't catch them."

The Fifth-Order Wizard pressed down on Jerry's shoulder and shook his head slightly.

The opponent was using some kind of teleportation ability, and it took time for them to find them.

With this back and forth, the energy fluctuations in the air were getting fainter and fainter, simply not enough to support a continued pursuit.

They didn't even know if this was something the opponent had set up deliberately.

...
