Strongest Medical Saint-Chapter 715: Strange Communication

"No, no, don’t kill me!"

Facing Ji Kongnian’s fierce and ruthless gaze, Tian Wenchao kept stepping backward, his face filled with the fear of imminent death.

Originally, he had thought that with Ji Ruoqiu as his amulet, and considering Ji Kongnian’s affection for his granddaughter, he should have been temporarily safe. Little did he know that the Heart-devouring, Soul-consuming Poison, a terrifying poison that had never appeared in the Lower Realm, would be easily neutralized by Shen Feng. He finally understood why the Carefree Immortal Emperor had become a legend in people’s hearts!

He quickly turned around.

As Tian Wenchao attempted to escape at all costs, defying death itself.

Ji Kongnian moved, suddenly blocking Tian Wenchao’s path, and said with an icy voice, "How dare you threaten me with Ruoqiu? And to repeatedly disrespect my Old Ancestor with your insolence!"

"Tian Wenchao, how many lives do you think you have?"

"However, rest assured, I will let you live a little longer."

Before Tian Wenchao could beg for mercy again.

Ji Kongnian swiftly destroyed Tian Wenchao’s Dantian with a palm strike, and then, he opened a hole in the top of his head.

This hole was not enough to kill Tian Wenchao.

"Ah~"

The incapacitated Tian Wenchao continuously emitted screams from his throat, but Ji Kongnian paid him no heed, severing all his limbs’ meridians and carelessly throwing him on the ground.

It wasn’t long before.

Green ants were seen swiftly crawling in from all around.

These ants, known as Brain-Eating Ants, were most fond of devouring the brains of Monster Beasts or Cultivators, specialized in tracking the scent of brains.

Previously, having seen a few Brain-Eating Ants around, Ji Kongnian inferred that there must be many nearby. Watching the continuously struggling Tian Wenchao on the ground, the smile on his lips grew more and more intense.

When multitudes of green Brain-Eating Ants crazily burrowed into Tian Wenchao’s head and swiftly feasted on his brain.

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!—"

He let out even more desperate, throat-tearing howls, his eyes rolling back constantly, even with Brain-Eating Ants crawling inside his eyes and entering and leaving his nostrils.

He struggled even more violently on the ground, unable to even utter pleas for mercy, only capable of screaming pitifully.

In an instant.

Fresh blood kept bubbling from Tian Wenchao’s mouth, and soon, Brain-Eating Ants began pouring out of his head, leaving his skull riddled with countless tiny holes.

As for this.

Ji Kongnian and Shen Feng felt no mercy, as Tian Wenchao truly deserved his fate.

Of course, while Brain-Eating Ants favored devouring brains, they would not pass up the chance to consume the flesh and blood of Cultivators and Monster Beasts either.

Before long.

Tian Wenchao’s entire body was devoured by the relentless swarms of Brain-Eating Ants, leaving not even a trace of bone or blood behind.

Of course, though Tian Sheng’an’s head had been crushed, his body too was frenziedly consumed by the Brain-Eating Ants.

Shen Feng had no intention to absorb their energy, as the Heart-devouring, Soul-consuming Poison had already transformed into energy, which he had completely absorbed.

His Cultivation had advanced slightly, almost reaching the Half-Step Sea Transformation.

With the day of Dragon Leap Gate drawing ever closer, he couldn’t afford any mishaps at this time!

After the grandfather and grandson were thoroughly devoured by countless Brain-Eating Ants.

Ji Kongnian respectfully approached Shen Feng, bowing and saying, "Old Ancestor, I have alarmed you, Kongnian truly deserves death!"

Shen Feng waved his hand dismissively and said, "It’s nothing, don’t dwell on it!"

Without waiting for Ji Kongnian to summon him, Ji Pinghua also hurried over, bowing with utmost respect and said, "Old Ancestor, the junior Ji Pinghua greets you."

"Ever since hearing about you from my father, I’ve been looking forward to the day I could meet you. You’ve been a legend in the hearts of many, and to have even this slight connection with you truly feels like a blessing I’ve earned in my past life!"

Seeing his granddaughter Ji Ruoqiu still not taking action, Ji Kongnian sternly called out, "Ruoqiu, why haven’t you come to pay respects to the Old Ancestor? We owe a lot to the Old Ancestor today; otherwise, you might have truly become a puppet."

The girl in the black dress, Ji Ruoqiu, had a face full of perplexity. Which young girl hasn’t had an idol during her childhood?

As for Shen Feng, a past legend, he was the idol of many proud daughters from the Lower Realm!

Don’t think that Ji Ruoqiu, with her cool beauty, was indifferent. Ever since she knew of the Carefree Immortal Emperor during her childhood, she had held nothing but admiration for him, never imagining that one day she could be in such close contact with her idol. She could definitely be counted as a fangirl of the Carefree Immortal Emperor!

But was the man before her truly the Carefree Immortal Emperor?

Seeing that Ji Ruoqiu remained indifferent, Ji Kongnian’s expression grew uglier, while Ji Pinghua quickly recounted the whole story of what had happened.

Upon hearing her father’s words,

Ji Ruoqiu knew for certain that her grandfather could definitely confirm that the person before her was the once Carefree Immortal Emperor. She bit her lips gently, walked up to Shen Feng with a hint of shyness, looked at him with her passionate beautiful eyes, and said with deep respect, "Old Ancestor, thank you for saving my life!"

Shen Feng felt Ji Ruoqiu’s intense gaze, but he deliberately ignored it and said indifferently, "It was merely a trivial effort."

Then, he looked at Ji Kongnian and asked, "Is the Netherworld Spirit Tree within this cave?"

Ji Kongnian immediately replied, "Yes."

"However, the poison spikes on the Netherworld Spirit Tree are very difficult to deal with. We couldn’t get close to it at all previously."

Shen Feng had already placed the Red Cloud Rabbit on the ground earlier and said, "I’ll go in and take a look."

Having said that,

he began to walk step by step into the cave.

After exchanging glances, Ji Kongnian and the others followed behind Shen Feng.

The cave was somewhat damp, and after walking inside for several minutes,

they saw an surprisingly open space at the deepest part.

To the front right of this space grew a blue tree over five meters tall.

The tree was covered with dense, dark green poison spikes, and its trunk bore glittering golden fruits.

The entire Netherworld Spirit Tree was also entwined with green vines. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

As Shen Feng slowly approached the attack range of the Netherworld Spirit Tree, Ji Kongnian and the others were just about to warn him, but puzzlement surfaced on their faces instead.

The dark green poison spikes on the Netherworld Spirit Tree showed no intention of attacking their Old Ancestor.

They hastened to follow him; however, as soon as they entered the attack range,

"Whiz! Whiz! Whiz! Whiz! Whiz!——"

A barrage of dense, dark green poison spikes shot out with incredible speed.

Yet,

these poison spikes avoided Shen Feng and aimed solely at Ji Kongnian and the others with ferocious speed.

Ji Kongnian and the others quickly retreated, dodging the spikes while they withdrew from the Netherworld Spirit Tree’s attack range.

Shen Feng turned his head and said, "Don’t come any closer!"

The closer he got to the Netherworld Spirit Tree, the stronger a very strange sensation he experienced, as if the tree was struggling to communicate with him.

Or rather, it was striving to communicate with the blood-red ring on his finger.

He could even feel that the Netherworld Spirit Tree seemed to long for the blood-red ring on his finger.
