397: Chapter 397 Opening the Hidden Space

Nie Ning swept past the sky-walking tree fruit and quickly escaped the attack range of Blanche and the others.

Relying on his Fourth-order strength, Nie Ning brilliantly played the role of a transparent person who was ignored by everyone.

As someone who was merely a bit faster, the Transcendents present had no interest in Nie Ning, and not even a single person tried to trip him up.

After all, one had to show respect to someone; the news that Amivika had withstood a Sixth-order Transcendent had already spread far and wide.

Now that the two were together, Lord Helian had not shown any signs of abnormality.

In this 'friendly' environment of interaction, everyone naturally wouldn't want to provoke enemies for no reason; perhaps they could even recruit the two into their own forces.

Regarding this, Nie Ning felt that this was the trouble of smart people, or perhaps it could be called being too clever by half—thinking too much led to various problems.

For example, underestimating the enemy...

Unfortunately, there were too many people, and he really couldn't use his trump cards right now.

He estimated that if there were the slightest disturbance, he would be instantly focused down and killed by these Transcendents.

For this reason, Nie Ning could only suppress the impulse in his heart and decided to wait a while.

...

After rushing out of the range of the sky-walking tree fruit, the effect of the spatial imprisonment had also disappeared.

Nie Ning stopped to ponder for a while, but still decided to go do other things first.

Because there were still Tier 5 Transcendents arriving one after another, he estimated it wouldn't end for half a day.

Rather than waiting here bored, it was better to go handle another matter.

The five elements exorcism banner!

He had indeed come here for the sky-walking tree fruit, but a high-level item like the five elements exorcism banner naturally could not be missed.

If he obtained it, it would be a huge help in improving his strength.

Without lingering, he glanced at Blanche and the others who were rushing over, summoned his Second-order god-forbidden ring, and directly opened a portal to disappear from the spot.

"Damn it, let him run away again!"

Seeing Nie Ning disappear, Blanche stomped her feet in place in anger.

Compared to the ugly expressions of the others, Dalek appeared much calmer, with a meaningful smile on the corners of his mouth.

"Rest assured, I learned my lesson this time. He has a Void-Bright Insect I specifically left on him; no matter where he runs, we can find him."

As he spoke, Dalek took out a transparent circular vessel containing a thumb-sized insect that resembled a seven-spotted ladybug.

The difference was that there were only four small white dots on its back: front, back, left, and right.

The Void-Bright Insect was a very special type of insect. Usually, they would come in pairs. Once combined, the two Void-Bright Insects would be bound together, and no matter how far apart, they could sense each other.

The method of sensing was also very peculiar, relying on the four small dots on their backs.

It was like an indicator light; when the distance was far, it would glow with purple light, thereby allowing one to distinguish the location of the other Void-Bright Insect.

"I remember your family doesn't have many of these. You didn't steal it out, did you?"

Blanche glanced at the Void-Bright Insect, looked up at Dalek, and said with some surprise.

Generally speaking, precious things were usually rare, and the Void-Bright Insect was no exception.

Unless necessary, Dalek's family would keep them stored away and would not easily take them out for use.

Because if one died, the other would also be affected.

Although it wouldn't die directly, it would enter a state of closure and deep sleep.

"For you, what is a little thing like this?"

Dalek smiled generously, pretending to be unconcerned.

Although he said that, he was nervous to death inside.

If Nie Ning discovered it, the Void-Bright Insect would definitely be crushed to death.

What was even more miserable was that he had taken the Void-Bright Insect out secretly; he had originally only intended to show off in front of Blanche and had no intention of actually using it.

If it died, a beating would be unavoidable, and he might even be stripped of his inheritance rights.

In the end, heroes have trouble passing the beauty test; at this moment, Dalek could only comfort himself this way...

Upon hearing this, Blanche didn't say much. Now she only wanted to find that damn guy!

Just because of Nie Ning, her photo album was now everywhere. If she didn't take revenge for this, she wouldn't need to live!

The group didn't stay long and, following the guidance of the Void-Bright Insect, chased in the direction where Nie Ning had left.

...

On the other side, Nie Ning had already arrived at the location mentioned by Belen, a canyon situated between two large mountains.

"This should be the place."

Nie Ning compared it and confirmed that this was the location he was looking for.

To be on the safe side, Nie Ning did not rashly open the place where the five elements exorcism banner was hidden; he didn't want his treasure to be snatched by others.

Immediately after, Nie Ning sneaked into the canyon and began to search for any signs of existence.

In the process of searching, Nie Ning discovered quite a few heavenly treasures, and many of them were growing even better than those outside.

With this, Nie Ning finally confirmed Belen's statement.

After all, Belen had previously explained that this secret realm was nourished by demon origin; the closer to the demon's location, the better the growth of the heavenly treasures would naturally be.

After searching for a while, Nie Ning found no traces of anyone having been there.

If someone had really been there, these heavenly treasures couldn't have been preserved.

Nie Ning waved his hand, and five diamond-shaped crystals flew out from his spatial ring, subsequently hovering in the middle of the valley.

As a large amount of magic power flooded into the diamond-shaped crystals, lines shot out from them, forming a pentagram shape.

And within the crystals, runes emerged, as if they had been set, fixed at various positions of the pentagram.

When everything was ready, Nie Ning activated the energy in the crystals, and a huge white pillar of light descended from the sky, falling toward the ground below.

But just at a position one meter from the ground, the energy seemed to sink into the void and disappeared.

A moment later, the space rippled, and waves spread rapidly toward the surroundings.

Seeing this scene, Nie Ning's expression became vigilant.

Soon, he sensed an extremely powerful and solid demonic power.

Nie Ning maintained the crystal energy while taking out the Gale Spirit-Shrouding Array from his spatial ring to protect himself.

Although Belen had said there was no danger inside, it was better to just listen to such words; because things that were not dangerous to Belen might very well be fatal to him.

Even though he possessed the Abyssal Body, he was ultimately a human; being contaminated with excessively dense abyssal power might very well lead to being completely transformed into a demon.

Besides...

Nie Ning felt that he wasn't cut out to be a minotaur.

Several minutes passed, and a wisp of faint red mist surged out from the spatial ripples.

Seeing this, Nie Ning knew that the space was about to open.

Nie Ning couldn't help but feel a little excited.

In fact, for him, the five elements exorcism banner was only secondary; the most important thing was that Eighth-order demon body!

Because external objects were always external objects; only one's own strength was truly strong!

Even if he couldn't take away the demon's body, just a little bit of flesh and blood genes would be enough to make him become even more powerful.
