Chapter 1409: The Marvelous Uses of the Iron Gourd

“Swish.”

However, it was still a step too late.

The elder’s claw had already fiercely grabbed onto Ning Qi.

Even though he had the Treasure Armor protecting him, he was still flung away by a swipe.

As he was thrown away, he went to check his wound.

The armor was fine, but his chest was indeed injured.

Inside the wound, there was still blood churning and flowing out along the wound.

A thread was being drawn away by the elder.

His palm continually drew Ning Qi’s blood, directly absorbing it into his chest.

“Tsk tsk, not bad.”

The elder, as if tasting something delicious, showed a few traces of intoxication.

“I’m here.”

The Medicine Spirit, seeing this, immediately infused his Life Aura into the wound piercing Ning Qi’s chest.

As a result, his wound did not continue to worsen.

However, blood was still being continually devoured.

“Haha, this is our Innate Divine Techniques.”

“You’re unable to resist.”

The elder laughed continuously, with a fierce look in his eyes: “I will suck you dry like a mummy and refine you into my puppet to quell my heart’s hatred.”

This can’t help but make the elder hate him.

When the elder’s plan reached a critical point, Ning Qi ruined it.

Especially when he hadn’t yet awakened, he was forcibly awakened by Ning Qi.

Making his plan fall apart, the root of everything was Ning Qi’s existence.

“Is that so? Then let’s see if you have the ability.”

After hearing his words, Ning Qi couldn’t help but show a smile.

Right now, the only one who could help him escape was Shi Xiaokun.

“Then let’s do it!”

The elder paid no attention, continuing to intensify his power.

Even with the Medicine Spirit’s help, it was to no avail.

Very soon, Ning Qi was drained to the point of being bloodless.

“Be careful.”

Xu Wanrou, seeing this, gritted her teeth and came over to help.

“Little girl, get lost!”

The elder roared angrily and with a flick of his hand, directly flung her away: “I was letting you leave so you could help me find more people for us to devour.”

“Instead, you brought me a big problem, I’ll deal with you later.”

“I want to plant my flesh and bones into your body, make you my host, and never let you go.”

As he spoke, he revealed a few traces of greed.

In his eyes, there were still flashes of Evil Qi.

“Shi Xiaokun.”

Upon the elder’s distraction, Ning Qi hurriedly contacted Shi Xiaokun.

“Master!”

Shi Xiaokun responded within his Sea of Realms.

“I am being devoured, unable to move freely for the moment.”

“You help me take out that Iron Gourd, infuse it with my blood and let him devour it.”

Ning Qi arranged: “Let him taste the flavor of the Li River Water.”

“Master, this will also harm you.”

Shi Xiaokun quickly reminded.

“It’s fine, don’t forget I have the Chaos Flame protecting me.”

“It won’t have much impact on me.”

Ning Qi reminded him.

“Alright, here I come.”

After Shi Xiaokun agreed, he extracted Ning Qi’s Iron Gourd and fused it with his blood.

Meanwhile, Ning Qi was not idle, he activated the Chaos Flame within his body.

Protecting his body, especially his blood, which was completely guarded.

“Sizzle sizzle.”

The blood drawn outside was infused with Li River Water by Shi Xiaokun.

And was absorbed by the elder along the way.

When the Li River Water was absorbed, he initially didn’t notice anything.

A moment later, he sensed something amiss.

“Sizzle sizzle.”

Inside, his body was turning stormy; the feeling of being eroded and the power being bound startled him.

“What’s happening?”

The elder widened his eyes, unbelievingly observing the changes in his body.

“Old man, have you heard of Li River Water?”

Ning Qi smiled as he asked the elder.

“Li River Water? You let me absorb Li River Water!”

Only then did the elder react, his eyes instantly showing a serious expression.

He never expected Ning Qi would possess Li River Water.

“Yes, it is Li River Water that you absorbed!”

After Ning Qi responded, he continued: “You should’ve heard of Li River Water’s efficacy, soon you’ll experience it firsthand.”

“Snort, you think this can make me lose, it’s just that part of my body is corroded by Li River Water.”

“I can discard it!”

With a cold snort, the elder suddenly stiffened his body.

The next moment, his body began to dissipate rapidly, visible to the naked eye.

Turning into countless threads, eventually into speckles.

Like he was going to vanish from the void.

“Not good, he’s going to escape.”

The Medicine Spirit quickly said.

“He’s not escaping, but abandoning his current body.”

“Look around, Food Spirits are already arriving, along with more blood converging here.”

“It’s clear he’s discarding his present body, waiting for all Food Spirits and blood to aggregate.”

“Then, he’s likely to re-form a new body.”

Xu Wanrou was the first to notice the plan, analyzing it with Ning Qi.

“Master, we mustn’t let him succeed!”

The Medicine Spirit urged upon hearing: “If he succeeds, we won’t stand a chance against him.”

“Miss Xu, have you informed your people, are they retreating?”

Ning Qi directed his gaze to Xu Wanrou’s side.

“They’ve begun leaving here, they should soon be back in the Sea of Realms.”

Xu Wanrou responded.

“Good, what about our people, have you informed them?”
