012 Gluttony Supernatural Power
"Giggle giggle giggle."
A series of bubbly sounds emanated from the young mistress of the Zhu family, resentful and dense.
Like some kind of spell, it floats in every dark corner.
Several mutilated maidservant corpses were manipulated, twisting and twitching as they stood upright.
Several severed arms and fingers were digging into the ground, crawling aimlessly around.
"It can even manipulate corpses?"
Ning Kui's heart sank slightly. After breaking through to the Skin Refining Realm, he had the strength of a thousand jin, and his physical attributes had more than tripled.
The time and power of activating the [Water Control] divine power have both increased.
However, they are still not good at waging wars of attrition.
Fortunately, he had caught a white-spotted ghost fish from the fishpond before leaving.
Ning Kui raised the leather pouch at his waist, and the water sphere inside burst open, revealing a strange fish the size of a yellow catfish that swelled up in the wind.
By the time it landed in front of the several corpse puppets, it had already returned to its original size of one zhang (approximately 3.3 meters).
The enormous body cast a shadow, completely enveloping the tiny corpse puppets.
"Whoosh!"
The white-spotted ghost fish swung its tail, and fleshy tentacles, resembling human hands, stretched out in all directions, tightly gripping the necks of several corpse puppets. Then, it suddenly pulled them back to its sharp teeth.
Unable to put up any decent resistance, the corpse puppets were chewed up and swallowed one by one, like spicy snacks.
After consuming them, the white spots on the white-spotted ghost fish become even more vivid, as if a human face is struggling and roaring in resentment.
However, what surprised Ning Kui the most was that these maid puppets could also provide him with Yin energy points.
[Yin energy point: 80].
Just then, a severed arm struggled to crawl to Ning Kui's feet, only to be smashed into mincemeat by the Dragon Scale Halberd.
The numbers have changed again.
[Yin Qi Point 85].
Without the slightest hesitation, Ning Kui immediately allocated 20 points to the "Raging Sea Dragon-Suppressing Halberd".
[Technique: "Raging Sea Dragon-Suppressing Halberd" (Minor Success), Progress (100/500)]
[Characteristic: This technique simulates the cultivation methods created by the remnants of divine beasts. Upon minor success, there is a chance to integrate the characteristics of the dragon scales into the Skin Refining realm.]
A tingling sensation came from under his skin. Even though Ning Kui didn't add any more Yin Qi points, his Skin Refining Realm continued to rise with the addition of the Dragon Scale's properties.
[20/100]
[21/100]
It climbed until it reached 40/100 before stopping.
Looking at the remaining 65 Yin Qi points, Ning Kui sighed to the heavens, "This ghost is actually quite good."
Add some more! breakthrough!
"Boom!"
The torrential rain that had been brewing all morning finally poured down. The icy rain hit Ning Kui's body, and the scorching heat evaporated it into wisps of white mist.
His momentum is constantly rising!
"Giggle giggle giggle giggle!!!"
The starving ghost screamed angrily, her face contorted. She couldn't understand what had changed in the boy in front of her, but she instinctively felt that she couldn't delay any longer!
The starving ghost lay on the ground with its pale, thin limbs and its back arched, like a frightened wildcat.
Suddenly, he exerted force with all four limbs, like an arrow released from a bow, or an eagle swooping down on a rabbit, so fast that he left a black afterimage in the rain!
"call out!"
The white-spotted ghost fish immediately began to block, its tail spreading out into more than ten arms to intercept.
Unfortunately, the movements of the hungry ghosts were so exaggerated that their dodging maneuvers were beyond what humans could possibly do.
However, in the blink of an eye, it broke through the White-spotted Ghost Fish's blockade, and its jet-black mouth was about to bite off Ning Kui's entire head.
Just then, an incredibly solid wall of water suddenly appeared between the two.
Even on a rainy day, it's Ning Kui's home turf.
The high-speed flowing water curtain was like an impenetrable membrane, pushing the starving ghost backward.
At the same time, Zhou Tianyu seemed to be under some kind of gravitational pull, frantically squeezing towards the starving ghost.
No matter how much that pitch-black maw swallowed the water like a black hole, it was all in vain.
Even if she can eat a lot, can she eat up the torrential rain that covers the whole world?
Ning Kui, in just a short while, will be able to advance from the beginner level of skin refining to the minor master level.
Countless fine golden scale patterns spread beneath his skin. Although these were only in their nascent stages, they greatly enhanced Ning Kui's defense and strength.
Once it reaches the Great Perfection of Skin Refining, its sturdiness is comparable to that of a young dragon at the same level.
After achieving a dual advancement in martial arts techniques and realm, Ning Kui felt an unprecedented surge of power, making him feel as if he were floating on air.
"I've already told you, I'm furious right now!"
"The third move of the 'Raging Sea Dragon-Suppressing Halberd': Whirlwind Tail Wave-Splitting Slash!!!"
Amidst the torrential rain, Ning Kui wielded the Dragon Scale Halberd, unleashing his water control supernatural power and martial arts techniques together. The water flow and his vital energy merged perfectly, forming a phantom image of a dragon that could overturn rivers and waves.
When his power reached its peak, Ning Kui suddenly raised the Dragon Scale Halberd high and slashed it down at the starving ghost imprisoned in mid-air!
"hold head high!!!"
The phantom dragon raised its head and let out a dragon roar, swinging its giant tail to transform into an indestructible crescent-shaped slash that pierced through the hungry ghost.
With a muffled "poof," the water sphere exploded into countless tiny fragments that rained down.
The starving ghost split in two, like pork cut in half on a chopping board, and fell onto the stone slab with a "plop" from left to right.
However, she was not dead yet. Her torn body was covered with fleshy tentacles that tangled together, desperately trying to stitch her body back together.
Ning Kui naturally wouldn't sit idly by and watch it recover. As he walked, he used his mind to effortlessly unleash streams of water blades, cleaving the starving ghost in two time and time again.
As the distance closed, the birthmark on his back began to slowly heat up.
Ning Kui extended his index finger and tapped it on the forehead of the starving ghost.
The next second, the birthmark turned into a black fluid that enveloped the hungry ghost along the index finger.
All struggles and resistance are futile in the face of the birthmark on the idol.
Before long, when the ink-black fluid flowed back onto Ning Kui's back, only the pale body of the young mistress of the Zhu family remained in place.
Having escaped the contamination of the starving ghost, her original appearance was quite graceful and beautiful.
At this moment, all she could do was stare blankly at the world and ask what she had done wrong.
"What a pity, such a beautiful woman, married into a family as cold and heartless as the Zhu family."
He looked up in the torrential rain, wondering how far Li Qijue's battle had progressed in that forbidden ruin, which seemed both within reach and yet unattainable.
"He's pretty resilient. He can fight monsters from the Earth Realm for so long." His evaluation of Li Qijue's combat strength rose another level.
He must be at least at the peak of the Blood Refining Realm, right?
With the starving ghost eliminated, Ning Kui began to ponder whether to flee immediately or stay behind to support Li Qijue.
"Let's go to the temple and see if we can continue to get stronger before making any further plans."
