Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 1147 - 503: A Medicine Spirit

"You have to catch up before you talk!"

Ning Qi sneered as he glanced back; there were only a dozen pursuers, not too many.

The tricky part was that he was poisoned.

After flying for a while, Ning Qi looked toward the Black Water Region ahead.

In this area, you usually need the protection of a Flying Boat; it’s dangerous for individuals.

Firstly, you have to deal with the twisted monsters that can appear at any moment, and secondly, you must face the black water’s corrosion here.

Earlier, when he had just arrived, he was protected by a Flying Boat, but now he had put his Flying Boat away.

Using it now would mean they would use their Flying Boats to chase him.

At that time, he would also face their Flying Boat’s powerful crossbows.

If struck, the Flying Boat would be damaged.

In this Black Water Region, survival would be grim.

What to do? Ahead is the Black Water Region; behind are the pursuers.

On both sides are meteorite regions, but they are equally unknown terrains and would be strenuous to escape by running.

Thus, being caught is only a matter of time.

"Haha, no way out!"

"See where you can escape to now!"

"Ahead is the Black Water Region, kid! You’re done for!"

"..."

The pursuers behind noticed the situation favors them, so they began mocking him.

They wanted to disrupt Ning Qi’s decisions and create opportunities to catch him.

"Humph! Clowns!"

Ning Qi snorted coldly, then continued fleeing to the Black Water Region.

The pursuers became even more aggressive.

"He is going to his death."

"Hmph, keep pursuing; once we’re out of the meteorite region, we can use Flying Boats!"

"Exactly, pursue!"

The group exerted all their strength, continuing to chase Ning Qi.

Not giving him any breathing room.

Ning Qi now had distanced himself past the meteorite region; ahead is the Black Water Region.

Here, he had no choice but to take out his Flying Boat.

After activating it, he continued fleeing while controlling the Flying Boat.

On the Flying Boat, he had the advantage of being able to recuperate, although he had to face their crossbow attacks.

Preventing him from fully focusing on dealing with the poison.

"Whoosh!"

"Bang!"

"..."

The pursuers began shooting continuously.

Ning Qi relied on his predictions to evade shot after shot from their Flying Boats.

"Damn, so cunning!"

"Continue, don’t let him escape!"

The group hated Ning Qi deeply, yet still couldn’t kill him.

This made them increasingly anxious.

"Whew!"

Ning Qi felt the wind whistling past his ears, glanced at the pursuers behind.

They still tenaciously followed him, but their earlier arrogance was no more.

Each focused seriously on controlling their crossbows and Flying Boats, shooting continuously while closely pursuing.

Ning Qi observed the surroundings, hoping to find a breakthrough.

Before him lay patches of the Black Water Region, not continuous stretches of black water.

Yet, as they ventured deeper, patches of the Black Water Region grew more frequent.

Some areas’ black water connected seamlessly; if you aren’t careful controlling the Flying Boat, rushing in would lead to certain death.

This haze formed from countless gray mists, destructive in its corrosion.

By now, those chasing him had slowed down, yet Ning Qi did not reduce his speed.

Gradually, he widened the gap from them.

"Damn it, isn’t he afraid of death?"

"This black water, if entered carelessly, means certain death!"

"No matter; I’ll keep trailing, I don’t believe he’ll dare to enter!"

"..."

The people behind kept pursuing relentlessly, though they had shifted strategies.

No longer chasing fiercely, they scattered like herding sheep.

Step by step, following Ning Qi without giving him a chance to catch his breath.

Now, Ning Qi felt a headache.

Not a reaction from the poison, but the gaps in the Black Water Region ahead were getting smaller and smaller.

Some had even connected entirely, leaving no choice but to blaze through.

Fortunately, these connecting points weren’t large; crossing them with eyes closed would suffice.

Yet, as they delved deeper, these points thickened, requiring much more than just closed eyes to get through.

Often, Ning Qi needed to draw on his strength to resist, only then could he pass.

For him, this added misery upon misery.

The poison inside him had started raging; he urgently needed a place to recuperate.

To prevent himself from being thoroughly corroded.

"Damn it, isn’t he afraid of dying?"

"He’s heading into the Black Water Region to die."

"Entering the Black Water Area requires the protection of a massive ship! Our Flying Boat won’t suffice!"

"What do we do, retreat?"

"No, we’ll guard here; let him in, just don’t let him come out!"

"..."

At this point, the pursuers had given up chasing.

They controlled their Flying Boats and stopped afar, watching Ning Qi.

The prey, just like that, flew away.

At this moment, Ning Qi noticed they were no longer chasing him.

Hence, he gradually slowed down, glancing back, barely seeing their figures now.

"Whew!"

Finally, here, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Surveying his surroundings, he assessed the situation.

Surrounded by black water, it had connected into one entirety.

The gaps from before were gone.

This meant he had thoroughly entered the Black Water Region.

His Flying Boat’s protective shield rocked amidst the black water, barely holding.
