Dashing Student Chapter 995: Paltry Tricks

The three black-robed figures looked at Chen Nan, their expressions as if they had seen a ghost.

They had been in the Heavenly Border for so many years and had never encountered such an absurd scene.

The Gu Insects cultivated with their essence blood completely ignored them, making them frustrated enough to want to vomit blood.

Chen Nan did not give them much time to react. Suddenly, black flames rose from his body, looking extremely eerie.

The next moment, he disappeared from where he stood and, when he reappeared, he was already behind one of the black-robed figures.

"Heavenly Fox Form!"

In an instant, Chen Nan’s body enlarged by a third, his fingers became slender, and his nails emerged like sharp blades.

He seemed like a devil emerging from the shadows, directly thrusting his palm into the chest of the black-robed figure.

Then, he grabbed the wound with both hands and forcefully tore the black-robed figure apart.

Blood mist filled the air, and this scene left the remaining two black-robed figures gaping, their legs weak from fear.

Is this still a human?

Covered in blood, Chen Nan looked even more terrifying, grinning as he charged toward the bald one.

Because Chen Nan’s cultivation had dropped to the Third Layer of the Foundation Establishment Stage, the power of his other magic had significantly decreased, so when facing three cultivators at the Ninth Layer of the Foundation Establishment Stage, he could only use his physical prowess that surpassed the Foundation Establishment Stage to crush them.

The bald one’s strongest Gu Insects were still lying on the ground, impossible to command. At this time, he could only summon spiritual artifacts that he usually didn’t use to counter Chen Nan.

A copper bell flew out quickly, and the bald one grabbed it, shaking the bell frantically.

Dang dang dang!

The urgent sound was like demonic music piercing the ears, capable of making people drowsy, their souls flying outside, but in just an instant, Chen Nan returned to normal.

His divine soul power was equally powerful, as steadfast as a mountain, impossible to shake.

Chen Nan took a step forward, grasped the bald one’s hand holding the copper bell, and slowly applied pressure, the sound of bones cracking emanating from his palm.

The bald one’s expression twisted with pain, letting out a piercing wail.

In a swift motion, Chen Nan raised his hand and slashed down, his nails like sharp blades directly slicing through the bald one’s body.

The corpse fell, but the copper bell ended up in Chen Nan’s hand, and after inspecting it closely, he discovered it was a decent spiritual artifact, although only of the eighth grade, it was a rare artifact for attacking the divine soul.

He casually tossed the copper bell to A Yin, then turned to look at the last black-robed figure.

The black-robed figure was nearly paralyzed with fear at this moment, collapsing to his knees with a thud.

But Chen Nan gave him no chance to plead for mercy, swinging his claws to strike a lethal blow.

At this moment, when facing cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage, he had nothing but overwhelming force, with no suspense whatsoever.

A Yin gleefully ran over, gathering all the Gu Insects from the three black-robed figures.

The owners of the Gu Insects were dead, they could now recognize a new master. To A Yin, this was a complete windfall.

Moreover, these were Gu Insects left behind by cultivators at the Ninth Layer of the Foundation Establishment Stage, extremely powerful. Even if he didn’t use them himself, distributing them to other Gu Masters in the village would be beneficial.

"Senior, we’ve struck it rich now. Shall we leave?"

Chen Nan shook his head: "Did you forget what I told you? To eradicate evil, you must destroy the root!"

Even though he had killed three black-robed figures, he had no intention of letting the remaining two off the hook. After all, even if he left now, they’d soon come after him.

Only by silencing all witnesses would he be safe.

So he let A Yin finish looting the three corpses and quickly return.

Back where Chen Nan had been, the two black-robed figures looked at an unconscious woman, not daring to approach.

"Hmph, no matter what, she must die today!"

The leader of the black-robed figures snorted coldly, immediately summoning a Gu Insect and directing it toward the woman.

Just as the Gu Insect was about to crawl into the woman’s mouth, she seemed to sense the danger, suddenly opening her eyes and spitting out a centipede.

The Gu Insect released by the black-robed figure’s leader was instantly devoured by the centipede.

The woman quickly got up but staggered, nearly falling, her vision blurring.

"Priest Chang, why persist? Give up resistance, and we promise you a quick end."

The woman known as Priest Chang spat out a mouthful of bloody spittle, snarling viciously: "Dream on! I will spread word of your deeds across the entire Heavenly Border!"

The leader of the black-robed figures laughed coldly: "Heh, what difference does that make? Even if they know, where can they escape to?"

"No matter the ends of the earth, Lord King Gu will find them; they might as well walk the road cheerfully."

Priest Chang was even more furious: "Silence! How dare you call yourselves priests?"

As she spoke, she coughed up more blood, her hair disheveled, her body covered in wounds, clearly on the verge of collapse.

Just then, Chen Nan and A Yin suddenly returned, making the two black-robed figures frown simultaneously.

Hadn’t someone been sent to deal with them? How could they fail to kill even these small cultivators?

What were they doing?

The leader was furious.

Seeing Chen Nan and A Yin, Priest Chang’s face immediately showed anxiety.

"You should leave, this is not something you can meddle in!"

To avoid implicating the innocent, she opened her mouth, allowing a long centipede to crawl onto her arm.

The leader of the black-robed figures sneered: "Heh, are you desperate now? Is this your last Gu Insect?"

"One Gu Insect is enough to deal with you!"

Priest Chang roared, and the Gu Insect in her hand flew up, spewing a thick smoke that quickly enveloped the surroundings.

The smoke was so dense that vision couldn’t penetrate, and it even had the effect of blocking divine thought.

Inside the fog, it was like being blind with eyes open.

"You handle those two small cultivators; leave Priest Chang to me."

The leader of the black-robed figures shouted, and the other black-robed figure went as commanded.

Though he couldn’t see, he remembered where Chen Nan and A Yin were.

"Priest Chang, did you really think such a trick could help you survive? Today, you will surely die!"

The leader of the black-robed figures sneered coldly, and on the back of his hand crawled a Gu Insect, only this one was a silver little snake, its tongue flicking, then it opened its mouth and sucked hard.

Instantly, the thick smoke was drawn into a vortex, swiftly being inhaled completely.

With his vision restored, the leader saw Priest Chang had already approached, summoning a Crescent Blade that came whirling at him.

"A meager trick!"

The leader snapped his fingers, sending out another Gu Insect, though it was thumb-sized, it abruptly unfurled wings spanning a full ten feet in width.

The wings appeared almost transparent, thin as cicada wings, seemingly fragile at a touch.

But when the whistling Crescent Blade struck the wings, it was directly knocked aside, while the wings merely wavered slightly, entirely unharmed.

Priest Chang’s face turned to despair, but when she looked toward Chen Nan and A Yin, she suddenly froze.

Because at that moment, Chen Nan was grabbing a black-robed figure with one hand, tossing him aside like a dead dog.
