400: Chapter 400: Was he really resurrected?

"Something is wrong!"

Nie Ning stopped his movements with a solemn expression.

The more he thought about it, the stranger it felt.

Logically speaking, with the sensory abilities of a Seventh-Order Transcendent, it shouldn't be possible to fail to detect the immense demonic power within the demon's body.

Furthermore, Belen said there would be no problem at the time, but does this scene look like there is no problem?

Nie Ning didn't know how things were outside, but just leaning near this dead body, he could feel immense pressure; it was nothing like what Belen said about the demon being unable to convert energy to maintain the secret realm.

Nie Ning felt a bit strange; could this also be a part of the Yishi Mansion's plan?

But the problem was right there; the demon was indeed dead.

And while the immense energy in the demon's body was harmful to them, the Seventh-Order wizards outside definitely had the ability to resolve it.

This little disturbance was trivial, completely unlike what Helian described as being so eerie.

Besides, does something proactive count as a disaster?

This was clearly within the scope of Yishi Mansion's resolution, not an uncontrollable regional disaster.

The more Nie Ning thought about it, the creepier he felt.

Turning his head to look around, staying in this sea of blood mist, he always felt like a pair of eyes was staring at him.

Nie Ning couldn't help but shiver all over, and he lost the desire to continue collecting demon materials.

He had to leave quickly before the blood mist fully spread.

Otherwise, when he finally went out, the five elements exorcism banner would definitely be exposed, and it would be disastrous if someone with ulterior motives saw that he was the one who caused the disturbance.

Thinking of this, Nie Ning returned the xueyan bladeless to its sheath, then capped the bottle containing the demon materials, and flew toward the spatial rift without looking back.

Nie Ning secretly sighed in regret.

It was a pity he didn't have a large enough spatial ring; it would have been great if he could pack up the demon corpse and take it away.

But after thinking about it, it seemed it would be useless even if he had one.

Unless it was a specially made spatial ring, the immense demonic power would definitely burst any ordinary spatial tool.

'Dung~'

Suddenly, a faint thumping sound appeared.

"Am I having auditory hallucinations?"

Nie Ning stopped unconsciously to listen carefully, but he didn't hear any movement.

"It seems even I am being affected..."

'Dung~'

At this moment, the thumping sound appeared again.

'Dung~'

Before Nie Ning could listen carefully, the sound appeared even more clearly this time.

It sounded just like a heartbeat, and the sound was becoming more and more frequent.

The hairs on Nie Ning's body stood on end, and he mechanically turned his head to look at the blurred figure hidden in the blood mist.

Because this sound seemed to be coming from that body.

But that shouldn't be right; he had clearly inspected it carefully, how could it be alive!

Soon, Nie Ning cast this to the back of his mind; for now, he should just run away, and if there were any problems, he would let the big shots outside solve them.

Having been sealed for so long, even if this demon were resurrected, it couldn't possibly be a match for so many powerhouses.

Just as Nie Ning was about to reach the spatial rift, his figure suddenly stalled and stopped.

Or rather, it wasn't just Nie Ning; even the surrounding blood mist stopped moving, as if time had been frozen.

Nie Ning felt a strong sense of oppression, but it hadn't reached the level where he couldn't break free.

As the four god-forbidden rings activated, surging magic power flowed within Nie Ning, and he subsequently regained his ability to move.

"Hahaha, it really worked, I really succeeded! Hahaha..."

Just as Nie Ning was preparing to take the opportunity to leave, a burst of wild laughter came from inside the sealed space.

Nie Ning trembled upon hearing this, and couldn't help but widen his eyes and look back.

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he vaguely saw a huge figure emerging in the blood mist...

It really resurrected!

Nie Ning didn't dare to linger; his wings flapped behind him, and he charged toward the spatial rift.

At this moment, he just wanted to quickly close the spatial passage; perhaps this could slightly hinder the opponent and give himself enough time to escape.

Nie Ning cursed internally while running away.

What kind of bullshit god-forbidden ring!

It had been so long and it was completely useless!

It was one thing to be restrained by others' restrictions before, but now it couldn't even be used in the uncontrolled blood mist.

Although it was a problem with his own strength, anyone else would complain about it.

Moreover, as a transmigrator, is it really okay to be constantly thwarted like this?

...

Because the sealed space was not large, Nie Ning quickly passed through the spatial rift and returned to the valley.

Without any hesitation, the moment Nie Ning came out, he waved his hand and fired five fused Wind-Thunder Blades, shattering the crystal that opened the secret realm.

After all, this was faster than simply closing the spatial rift.

Because the self-healing nature of space is very strong; without energy support, it would recover quickly.

Nie Ning watched the rapidly closing rift and finally breathed a sigh of relief at the very last moment it closed.

Having been sealed for so long, even if the opponent really resurrected, it shouldn't be that easy to reopen the spatial passage.

Looking at the secret realm that was still full of blood energy, Nie Ning found his direction and made a run for it.

But not long after Nie Ning flew out, he discovered that the surrounding blood mist was surging toward the valley.

Not only that, Nie Ning felt an inexplicable suction force, and it seemed as if even the blood in his body had a tendency to be sucked away.

Nie Ning hurriedly increased his magic power output, and the light barrier formed by the five elements exorcism banner became even harder.

In a moment, Nie Ning had rushed out of the valley, and the surrounding blood traces had obviously faded a lot.

Nie Ning turned back to take a look, and this one look almost scared his soul out of his body.

As the blood energy surged toward the location of the valley, a huge blood shadow appeared within the valley.

The blood shadow stretched out its thick arms, its hands clasping at the position in front of its chest, as if it were pulling at something.

But suddenly, relying on his Transcendent vision, Nie Ning could clearly see a small black dot.

Although it was only the size of a human head...

But Nie Ning could be certain that it was definitely a spatial rift!

"Just how much strength does this demon have left? How the heck is this even possible?"

Nie Ning was completely dumbfounded.

One must know that the spatial barrier of the Wizard World is extremely sturdy.

And although the secret realm is an affiliated 'world' of the Belvis World, space is not something that can be easily broken open.

The opponent had been sealed for a thousand years, yet still had the ability to open space; this was too ridiculous, it was impossible to imagine how strong the opponent was in their complete form.

Nie Ning ran while looking back, but as he ran, his speed slowed down.

Because he discovered that although the opponent could open a spatial passage, it was still only that tiny bit large, and the body beside it couldn't pass through at all.

"Damn it, scared the hell out of me, turns out it's a dud!"

Nie Ning couldn't help but curse.

But just at this moment, the huge blood shadow suddenly contracted, turning into the size of a normal person.

...
