The Invincible Strongest Student

Lin Tian’s face showed a calm expression, but his heart was already in turmoil.

The speed at which this array was devouring Spiritual Qi was really too fast. Initially, there was no noticeable sensation, but after a while, the feeling became very clear.

If this continues at the current pace, in about half an hour, the Spiritual Qi within him would be completely drained. However, Wang Sijing had overlooked one thing, that Lin Tian still had pills with him that could replenish Spiritual Qi, capable of offsetting the devouring of this array.

When Wang Sijing mentioned Chen Moxiang and Xv Jiazhi. Lin Tian’s heart skipped a beat. Xv Jiazhi was all right; he was a high-level Martial Artist and could hold on for a while. But Chen Moxiang, she had no foundational training at all. At this moment, the array would only drain her stamina.

Turning his head to look, it was indeed so. Chen Moxiang’s face was already devoid of color, white and somewhat frightful, her pretty face expressionless, yet her silver teeth were clenched tightly, and her two pink fists were firmly held together.

This stubborn woman!

Seeing her trying to endure, Lin Tian’s heart was pained with sympathy.

Swift and decisive action is the best solution at this moment.

Lin Tian’s hand reached for his waist, on his belt were small pouches each holding steel needles as thin as hair. Though not poisoned, they could be deadly if stabbed into vital points!

Three steel needles nestled in his palm, Spiritual Qi surged from his Sea of Qi, flowing throughout his body, making him feel heat all over. Especially in his right hand, which seemed to hold a small sun, heating the needles until they started to glow red within seconds!

His right hand trembled, fingers spread open, releasing the needles to fly out. Their targets: Wang Sijing’s brow, chest, and Sea of Qi.

At such close range, the power was absolutely terrifying. Piercing into the body, the high-speed rotation would penetrate through, carrying out some tissue fragments, leaving a wound as thick as a pinky finger.

The steel needles were too fine, the lighting in this underground palace limited, and when Lin Tian threw them, the motion was subtle, making it difficult for anyone to react.

The needles tore through air, leaving a vacuum zone behind them. At a distance less than ten meters from Wang Sijing, she finally responded.

Wang Sijing immediately held her breath, her leg muscles tense, and awkwardly leapt to the side.

She knew she couldn’t completely avoid these hidden weapons, only hoped the needles wouldn’t hit vital spots, preserving her life. She didn’t believe Lin Tian would show mercy.

Whew~

The trace of the flying needles was hardly visible to the naked eye, the faint sound they emitted extremely weak. Only when they flew past Wang Sijing’s ear did she hear a slight sound.

The needle intended for her brow scraped past her cheek, narrowly avoiding a major mishap, leaving a three-centimeter scar while cutting a lock of her hair.

The needle aimed at her Sea of Qi was also successfully avoided, leaving only the one aimed at her heart, which pierced into her right arm!

In the blink of an eye, the needle pierced through her skin into her arm, leaving a through wound.

The pain from her nerve endings made Wang Sijing’s mind go blank for a second. Then, a greatly wretched scream, akin to that of a slaughtered pig, sharply painful.

As a direct descendant of the Wang Family, Wang Sijing had begun training from a young age. Practicing in the heat of summer and the chill of winter, her delicate skin became rough from training, calluses formed on her hands and feet, only recently removed after being soaked in medicine. Yet despite countless injuries over the years, the one on her arm was slightly more severe than usual.

But the pain was penetrating, deep into her bones, causing an intense trembling.

Wang Sijing gripped the red sleeve, biting her silver teeth, her eyes shooting a look colder than an ice cellar.

Hot blood surged to her head, and Wang Sijing wanted to charge and take Lin Tian’s life. But soon, this thought vanished from her mind. Just having learned Lin Tian had reached the Middle Stage of Golden Elixir, she had little confidence. Now with her arm severely injured, she couldn’t muster any strength, immediately considering retreat. Once this array drained his Spiritual Qi, it would be easy to kill him!

With this thought, Wang Sijing used her Lightweight Skill, intending to flee, healing was the best choice now!

Her intentions clearly hadn’t escaped Lin Tian’s notice, just as she wanted to run, suddenly, a black silhouette shot past her side. Blocking her path.

Lin Tian held the Black Dragon Dagger, pressing it against Wang Sijing’s neck, so close that it cut into her neck’s skin, drawing blood.

"Good reaction just now, you actually avoided all three needles." Lin Tian said, glancing at her arm wound, adding, "It seems the bone wasn’t hit, which is quite unexpected."

Wang Sijing’s gaze turned cold as a snake, covering her injured right arm with her left hand, unable to prevent the blood flow. Blood dripped down her arm to the ground.

"Don’t make it sound so good. You’re just thinking I still have some use left, knowing I can dodge your hidden weapons. If there was one more, I definitely couldn’t have dodged it."

Lin Tian looked at her mockingly, raising his brows with a smile, "That’s just your wishful thinking, my Spiritual Qi is almost depleted. If you dare resist, I’m not confident I can take you, I would just kill you with a slash. Then you’d regret it... Looking at me like this doesn’t help. Earlier, I wanted to get along peacefully, but you chose..."

Before Lin Tian could finish his sentence, Wang Sijing suddenly opened her small mouth and bit towards Lin Tian’s arm.

Her move was too sudden. Lin Tian quickly withdrew the dagger to prevent this woman from crashing into the blade.

Seeing Lin Tian dodging, Wang Sijing laughed sharply, "Ha, don’t you want to kill me? Why dodge? Even if you save my life, I won’t let you use it. I spit!"

With that, she spat out phlegm. Fortunately, Lin Tian was agile and dodged with a sidestep.

Lin Tian gave Wang Sijing a cold look, applying Spiritual Qi to his fingers to press four times on her chest. Sealing her meridians to prevent this bitch from going crazy again.

Wang Sijing wasn’t wrong; she still had value. She surely knew where the Luban Lock was, if she was willing to talk, things could be much easier.

Thus, this bitch couldn’t die. He also needed to treat her wound, or the penetration on her arm would kill her here.

Suddenly, Lin Tian noticed the blood dripping from Wang Sijing’s arm was seeping into the array’s cracks, leaving none outside. Meanwhile, her lips continued to move as if chanting an extremely awkward short phrase.

At that moment, Chen Moxiang suddenly shouted, "Lin Tian, the statue beside us just seemed to move!"
