436: Chapter 436 Was he going to die? He's alive again!
Watching the tidal dome in the sky begin to heal, everyone felt increasingly anxious and fled rapidly toward the outside of the island.
But just as the dawn was in sight, a sudden change occurred!
As everyone was flying, they suddenly felt like they couldn't fly anymore.
It was as if a huge attractive force was pulling on their bodies.
The group of Transcendent were startled and abruptly turned their heads to look behind them.
Unbeknownst to them, a black 'sun' nearly twenty meters in size was suspended high in the sky, and below it was the Jerky Bear Head, which had already recovered most of its soul body.
Under this terrifying suction, the entire island began to shake violently.
"Damn it, is there no end to this!"
The Black-Robed Person holding the Thunder Light Sha couldn't help but curse out loud.
But curse as they might, one by one they began to consume their own origin, willing to risk their future cultivation never advancing just to escape.
Perhaps they overestimated themselves, or perhaps they underestimated the Jerky Bear Head.
After all that struggle, not only did they fail to escape, but they were actually pulled back hundreds of meters.
Even worse, the Power of Corruption's blockade of this space remained and continued to strengthen as the Black Tide recovered, making it impossible for them to even use spatial items to escape.
And when the sky was completely covered by the Black Tide and the last glimmer of light was taken away, the hope in their hearts was taken away along with it...
A feeling of despair began to spread.
They couldn't defeat it before, and now they had absolutely no chance of winning.
Even Nie Ning, who was far from the Flesh Spider and had recovered a bit of his sanity, felt that his life was bleak and devoid of light, unable to see any hope of survival.
And under the attraction of the 'black hole', everyone continued to move closer to the Jerky Bear Head.
Just then, a flash of thunder light struck, attacking Nie Ning, who was being carried by Helian.
Helian reacted quickly, raising a shield to block the attack.
"It's all this kid's fault for bringing such a dangerous thing here. Since we're going to die anyway, might as well let me kill him!"
The wizard holding the Thunder Light Sha roared angrily.
The others didn't speak, because it no longer mattered to them.
Helian's expression turned cold: "If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have ended up in this state. You are the ones who deserve to die the most!"
Nie Ning looked at Helian and suddenly thought of a saying.
'Some people are good because they are inherently good.'
Perhaps Helian was such a person.
From beginning to end, he had never tried to trip him up in secret, and had even explained the pros and cons to him from the start.
Even at a time like this, Helian had no intention of abandoning him, and had even tried hard to save him earlier.
"So what? If you have the guts, come and fight me. Let's see if I don't beat the crap out of you!"
Perhaps having given up all hope, the holder of the Thunder Light Sha didn't even care about his dignity as a Tier 7, speaking vulgar words he would never have said before.
"Heh, you are crap yourself; don't dirty my hands."
Helian sneered and retorted unceremoniously.
Perhaps to vent their emotions, the group of Transcendent, though they didn't resort to violence, began to curse at each other. Perhaps only in this way could they barely forget their fear of death.
...
As everyone got closer and closer to the Dried Meat Bear, the scene suddenly quieted down.
There was no more cursing; there were only hollow eyes and numb expressions. The feeling of despair had become an inescapable haze.
Suddenly, a bright light fell from above.
Everyone's hearts tightened. Their dying spirits revived at this moment, and a strong desire to survive was ignited.
As everyone looked up at the sky, a pair of hundred-meter giant claws tore through the Black Tide, followed by a terrifying pressure that washed down, briefly suppressing the 'black hole's' suction.
But before everyone could rejoice, Helian's expression suddenly stiffened.
"The aura of a deity!"
For a moment, various events regarding Amivika replayed in Helian's mind.
One of them was caused by a maddened deity, which led to an unimaginable disaster.
'Could it be the same this time?'
As everyone flew impatiently toward the sky, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of Helian's mouth, his eyes filled with dead, desolate energy.
After struggling for so long, he still couldn't escape it in the end...
He was tired; he didn't want to struggle anymore.
But Nie Ning didn't want to die yet. His weak body made it impossible for him to speak, and his firefly-like Spiritual Power couldn't transmit sound either.
But just then, an inexplicable force lifted the two of them and flew them upward, accompanied by a weathered and powerful voice.
"Holy Son, I am truly sorry; it took some time on the way here."
Before Nie Ning could figure out the situation, his eyes suddenly blurred, and the blue sky came into view again.
At this moment, the group had already appeared outside the Black Tide.
And not far from them stood a young man dressed in black, gold-trimmed church attire.
As the young man raised his hand slightly, Nie Ning, who was being held up by Helian's magic, flew toward him.
Helian was startled; the other party's strength was simply unfathomable.
"The situation doesn't seem very good."
The young man looked at Nie Ning, whose body was malformed, and couldn't help but rub his forehead, feeling quite a headache.
"Thank you for the rescue; we will repay this kindness another day."
Soul Bone King bowed slightly to the young man, his eyes fixed on the other's expression.
The young man just waved his hand impatiently, with no intention of detaining them.
After all, given his status, it was really not appropriate to kill people casually; otherwise, it would be bad if some ultimate powerhouse noticed.
Seeing this, the others, fearing further mishaps, thanked him one by one and left directly. In the end, only the people from Yishi Mansion remained on the scene.
The young man thought for a moment, took out a purple pill, and had Nie Ning swallow it.
In just a flash, a vast amount of life energy poured into Nie Ning's body, beginning to quickly repair it.
About a quarter of an hour later, Nie Ning had regained his ability to move.
Nie Ning clenched his fist; although he was still seriously injured, he was no longer as weak as before.
Unfortunately, the biggest problem was still his soul. This time, the erosion by the Power of Corruption was particularly severe, and it would likely take a long time to recover.
Nie Ning looked up at the young man, having vaguely guessed his identity.
Nales Church!
"Holy Son, don't look at me like that; I'll be embarrassed."
The young man blinked at Nie Ning and said with a smile.
"Thank you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been done for this time."
Nie Ning looked at the Black Tide below with lingering fear.
The out-of-control Jerky Bear Head was simply too terrifying; it had completely exceeded the coping strength of a normal Corruptor.
He had thought the Black Tide was strong enough, but the energy absorption had shown an invincible side this time. The current Jerky Bear Head was simply a bug.
