508: Chapter 508 Sneak Attack on the Sparrow's Crown

One day later. Inside the cave.

"Kid, stop pretending. If you're awake, get up," Claude said, looking at Nie Ning, who was pretending to cultivate, with a calm expression.

Hearing this, Nie Ning's ears twitched, and he slowly opened his eyes.

"Haha, what a coincidence. You guys are here too," Nie Ning said, scratching his head with an awkward laugh.

Although it is said that treasures belong to those who are capable, being caught like this was indeed a bit awkward.

Seeing that the two didn't speak, Nie Ning looked at the almost diluted water in the pool: "How about you guys have a wash too?"

Claude took a deep breath, too lazy to pay attention to this idiot.

"Forget it. I have some things I need you to do."

"That's not good, right? After all, I'm from the Extreme Phase Demon Palace. If word got out, people would think I'm from the Yin-Yang Sect," Nie Ning refused indirectly without even thinking.

Good grief, he wasn't a pack mule; there was no reason to work like a horse for these two people.

After all, he just needed to wait honestly for rescue; there was no need to rack his brains and go through all this trouble.

"Since neither side has come to rescue you for so long, it's estimated that there might be some issues in between, or perhaps the coordinate location has been lost. Are you sure you want to just sit here and wait?" the Fire Dragon Lady stared at Nie Ning and said slowly.

Hearing this, Nie Ning hesitated slightly. In fact, he had also thought about this problem.

Quite a few people had escaped initially; logically speaking, someone should have come to rescue them long ago.

But no one had come until now. It was highly probable that they were delayed for some reason, or perhaps they had even given up on them.

However... Nie Ning smiled: "How is that possible? A top-tier bloodline like a fire dragon isn't easy to find. Even if the Extreme Phase Demon Palace gives up on us, but as for you two..."

An adult dragon is at least around Rank 9. Even though the Fire Dragon Lady is only a half-dragon, such a high concentration of bloodline still holds extraordinary potential, so even a top-tier force like the Yin-Yang Sect wouldn't give up so easily.

"Unless..." Nie Ning looked at the Fire Dragon Lady, a flash of greed appearing in his eyes.

Dragon clans are hard to find, and even if found, they are very difficult to defeat. But if it's just the fire dragon bloodline, the Fire Dragon Lady's bloodline concentration ratio is so high that he believed it should be no different from a Fire Dragon.

"Kid, you're courting death!" Thinking that Nie Ning was eyeing Louisa, a cold glint flashed in Claude's eyes, and a massive pressure assaulted Nie Ning.

Nie Ning gritted his teeth and forced a smile. "You guys are the ones asking for help now. I just need a bit of fire dragon bloodline for some research; it shouldn't be that big of a deal, right?"

"Impossible!" the Fire Dragon Lady refused directly.

For top-tier powerhouses, someone else's blood is enough to do many things. Therefore, most powerhouses cultivate special techniques that cause flesh and blood that has left the body to rapidly wither and lose its vitality. This is to prevent anyone from obtaining their flesh and blood and using it to do things that could threaten them.

Nie Ning had known the other party would refuse, or rather, no one would hand their life over to someone else.

"Don't be in such a rush to refuse. I only want the fire dragon bloodline, not your actual blood. You can just purify a little bit and give it to me."

The Fire Dragon Lady's main body is, after all, human, and the fire dragon bloodline does not play the dominant role. If the human gene molecules are removed from the genes, one can obtain a portion of fire dragon bloodline.

However, there is a drawback to doing this, which is that the fire dragon bloodline is no longer complete. Because this is equivalent to extracting a segment from the complete gene sequence, without the properly fused human genes acting as a buffer, the possibility of genetic collapse is extremely high.

But for Nie Ning, Supernatural Adaptability would only extract the gene sequences he needed, and he could use his own genes to replace the Fire Dragon Lady's human genes for fusion.

Louisa stared at Nie Ning for a while, and just as she wanted to speak, Nie Ning's expression suddenly changed. "Something's wrong! Someone is coming!"

At the same time, Louisa and Claude also felt a surge of energy fluctuation approaching.

Before the two could marvel at Nie Ning's sharp spiritual perception, the rock wall above suddenly exploded, and a ray of white light shone down from above, accompanied by a huge shadow.

Just at this moment, Nie Ning suddenly fired several fireballs at Louisa and Claude.

Louisa and Claude were both stunned for a moment. With a wave of their hands, they dispersed the fireballs Nie Ning had launched; attacks of this level, only Rank 5, were hard to cause them any impact.

"My lord, help!" Nie Ning shouted eagerly towards the top. Immediately afterward, he quickly transformed into a Long-armed Human and then flew rapidly upwards.

"So you were actually hiding here!" A giant strange bird descended from the cave entrance.

Ignoring Nie Ning, who had already reached its back, its gaze was locked tightly on Louisa and Claude in front.

It had specifically returned to check because it sensed that the energy in the Shengyang Secret Spring was rapidly dissipating, thinking that there was a problem with the Shengyang Secret Spring.

It didn't expect that among the few highest-level people who had escaped, two of them were actually hiding in its lair.

At this time, Nie Ning blinked at Louisa and Claude.

"Hehe, little chick, we happen to be hungry. Today we'll use you as a side dish!" Seeing Nie Ning winking behind Que Guan's back, Claude sneered and spoke.

Que Guan's expression was grave. Even knowing that the opponents were already seriously injured, it would be very difficult for it alone to defeat them.

However, with its speed, if it was determined to escape, it should be enough to flee back to the Blue Sea of Trees. Thinking of this, Que Guan had no intention of staying, flapping its wings to prepare to leave here and go back to call for help.

"Hmph! I'm afraid you don't have that ability!" Just as Que Guan was preparing to take Nie Ning, who was suspected to be the son of a Holy Beast, a terrifying pressure descended upon it, and at the same time, a powerful energy was brewing behind it.

By the time Que Guan realized something was wrong, it was already too late. A terrifying white lightning beam flashed, striking Que Guan's back directly, blasting the mid-air Que Guan towards the ground.

The entire ground was smashed into a large pit by Que Guan.

Claude and Louisa were not idle either. Louisa instantly transformed into a giant fire dragon, and crimson dragon breath sprayed from her mouth, submerging Que Guan in flames.

And Claude summoned a formation above Que Guan, with countless energy light cones carrying out a covering strike downwards.

"Stop, stop, stop, that's enough." After a round of output, Nie Ning hurriedly called them to stop.

But when the smoke cleared, all that remained below was a piece of pitch-black charcoal, and the smell of burnt flesh was mixed with the aroma of roast chicken. Nie Ning's mouth twitched slightly.

'These two are way too ruthless. Can I even extract genes after it's been burned like this...'

Suddenly, Nie Ning frowned slightly, and a powerful force of strength suppressed it. Raising his hand slightly, a semi-transparent small bird similar to Que Guan was slowly extracted from the corpse.

"High-rank creatures are indeed troublesome; it can even survive like this." Nie Ning couldn't help but sigh.
