Chapter 152: Poison Master
With a loud boom, the rocks shattered and were blasted in different direction. A strange green mist that was filling the hall was set aside by the explosion, revealing a red-haired woman wearing a Demonic mask.
Ning Xi looked at her hands and narrowed her eyes.
'Good thing I already had my Golden Body activated otherwise this poison would have entered my body. It's a dangerous one.'
Suddenly, she heard something crashing against the floor and turned her head, only to see the path she came from blocked by the debris fallen from above.
She sighed.
"Aye! So, care to introduce yourself? Mr.or Mrs. Fart smeller?"
"Hehe, your body can actually resist My Tofin Poison Mist. Good good, I will have more to study after I take your body."
A creepy laugh came from her sides, forcing her to turn her head. A man sat on the floor, with his lower body nowhere to be seen. He also had the usual Assassin Organisation's mask on.
Around him, a thick layer of green mist floated, encasing him in the middle. A deathly aura spread out in the whole hall with him being at the centre.
'A poison Master, huh. This could be a bit tricky.'
Ning wore her black gloves which Shen Yu had given her and smiled behind the mask. The gloves were nothing special and only had one enchantment—unbreakble.
And that was she needed. She was sure she could beat as long as she had these gloves on.
She then stepped forward, causing the ground to shrink underground and reveal a thin vine filled with thorns. The thorns had a special liquid dripping from them.
Ning Xi instantly jumped back when the vine shot towards her. Knowing that the ground could be filled with such dangerous vines, she just hovered in the air as she tried to look for the Poison master.
However, the mist was too dense and that caused the visibility to be very low. It also contained strange which restricted Spirit Sense to be spread out.
Ning Xi stood in the air, completely calm. Her breaths were getting slower and slower as she tried to inhale the air as less as she could.
'My body is actively making the anti bodies for the poison and solving it. However, due to being poison refined by a Nascent Soul Realm expert, my Qi is getting consumed at an higher rate.'
Ning looked at her hand clenched her fist, knowing that the more she delayed, the less her chances of winning would be. So, without waiting for even a second she dives down towards the group.
Just then, several green vines came out from the ground and shot towards the incoming red haired devil. However, the vibes were too slow and even with they tried to work together to bind Ning Xi, they failed.
She easily moved through the small gaps and reached the ground. With her hand streched back, she grinned and shouted.
"Heavenly Fist Of Destruction!!"
Her fist was instantly engulfed in a mass of strange purple glow which made the surroundings tremble slightly. The Green mist scattered away, making a room for Ning Xi to take breaths.
However, she simply ignored the opportunity and punched the ground with a crazed look in her eyes. The fist arrived at the jagged terrain with the sonic boom and was going to hit it but out of nowhere, the ground below her opened her.
A long thick branch of a tree rising from the crack met the incoming fist of Ning Xi and was instantly obliterated. The whole branch was smashed and the liquid on it, flew in the air due to the impact.
Nonetheless, Ning Xi didn't care about it and simply pushed her fist more and slammed it on the ground, making a earth Shattering impact.
With a loud boom, the whole ground cracked like a spider web and the nearby area of Ning Xi was sunken deep in the Earth.
The waves of outburst also cleared away a major part of the green mist, which was once again beginning to fill up.
Ning Xi took advantage of it and inhaled hurriedly. She stood at the centre of the pit and looked around, trying to find the Poison master.
'Interesting! You're too powerful for your own realm. Hmm, your body is good.'
The voice once again resounded but Ning Xi didn't care about it because she sensed two presences in the hall when the mist was cleared away.
One was obviously the Poison master but second one was different and it had a very dangerous presence. Although it wasn't to the level of dread she felt when facing with the Black Knight, Ning Xi still had a feeling that the second presence was troublesome.
Her scalp suddenly went numb as her sensed tingled, which made her jump to the sides. The next moment, the pit where she was standing a second ago was blasted even further which made the whole hall shook.
Debris from above and the ceiling felt as if it would collapse any time.
'If this shit falls on me, I'm dead. Fuck whoever is here. I'm killing it.'
Ning Xi who had planned to have fun in the starting dropped the matter as she knew that if she continued to play around, the whole cave might collapse on her. It simply couldn't stand her might.
She looked around at the Green Mist, which was probably the most annoying thing in the battle as she needed to constantly motioner it, and a maddening glint passed in her eyes.
'Hehe, master has taught me very well how to suck things.'
With a wide grin on her face, she flew upwards while dodging the vines and stopped at a certain altitude. Then, she opened her mouth and began inhaling the mist.
It could be dangerous but she knew she would survive and would be in a state of fighting so she didn't care about the consequences.
Her suction power was great as a small vortex formed before her mouth and began to suck the air around her at an insane rate.
"H-Hey! You shouldn't inhale that. Don't do that."
A panicked voice sounded as the green mist in the hall began to thin out. The poison Master tried to increase the amount of Green Mist but Ning Xi's mouth was like a black hole that devoured everything.
A sudden sense of crises washed over Ning Xi who without even thinking for a second, kicked the empty air beneath her. However, it was as if she stepped on a solid ground and bounced off.
Ning Xi didn't stop her suction as she continued to suck more and more mist, while also focusing on the creature that attacked her.
It was a twenty metres long as two metres high snake, made completely out of a strange purple substance that shone even in the green mist, which was already so thin that Ning Xi could see the walls.
'Ah! So it's the poison that was giving me alarms, not the creature itself.'
She wanted to find the Poison master but the serpent was once upon her. Knowing that she couldn't stop the suction and that the poison of the serpent was too dangerous, Ning Xi continued to fly around the hall as it continued to get thrashed and destroyed.
In a matter of seconds, the whole hall was filled with craters and even the walls were effected. Fortunately, the green mist was no more.
Ning Xi finally stopped her suction and burped, releasing fumes of a green substance. She looked at the serpent once again coming at her with its mouth wide open and smiled.
"I couldn't fight you because some reason, not because I'm weak."
She once again coated her fist with the purple glow and punched at the serpent while yelling.
"Heavenly Fist Of Destruction!!!"
The punch collided and produced a heavy impact which made the serpent burst into a liquid that spead all over the door and began to fill up the cracks and pits.
However, it also caused the ceiling which was barely maintaining itself come down.
Not wasting a single moment of time, Ning dashed towards the small tunnel she came from and just made it in time. Behind her, the whole hall collapsed producing a thunder book and sending shockwaves everywhere.
However, Ning Xi's focus was on something else or rather someone else. She stood in the tunnel, with both of her paths blocked. But she wasn't alone as a man stood near to the blocked wall.
He turned his head and shivered as he tried to plead.
"P-please spare me. I'll of your use."
Ning Xi wanted to talk but realised something as she signalled the Poison master and puked. A strange beautiful green pearl fell on the ground from her mouth.
Ning Xi wiped her mouth and smiled.
"Ah! That felt better. So, what were you saying Mr. Fast smeller? Anything to convince me?"
