NOVEL NEXT Chapter 89 Yin Jue Heavenly Worm_1
Yin Tian carefully opened the door and had just stepped inside when suddenly a wasp, the size of an infant's fist, buzzed aggressively towards him.
A cold glint flashed in Yin Tian's eyes, and with a flick of his arm, a silver needle shot out, nailing the wasp's body directly to the ceiling.
There, the silver needle remained firmly embedded in the ceiling, with the wasp impaled upon it.
The wasp struggled desperately but couldn't break free and soon lay completely still.
"Corpse-Dissolving Worm? What a 'welcome' right as I enter the door."
Yin Tian muttered to himself.
The Corpse-Dissolving Worm is an extremely venomous Gu poison.
Once infected, the poison can spread through the body in just a few seconds.
At the same time, the poison also has corrosive abilities, turning the body to nothing but bone in less than half a day.
Even coroners would be unable to determine the exact time of death of the victim!
This Corpse-Dissolving Worm was obviously left by the Gu Master at the door to deal with intruders.
If Yin Tian's reaction had been just a bit slower, he might now be lying on the ground as a corpse.
After closing the door again, Yin Tian finally proceeded into the room.
This was a large flat of around three hundred square meters with many rooms.
Yin Tian listened closely but heard no noise coming from any of the rooms.
He frowned slightly.
Could it be that the Gu Master just happened to be out?
He began to search the inside of the house.
In many of the rooms, there were vessels for making and refining Gu, while other rooms contained various plants and many jars and bottles with oddly-shaped insects inside.
Soon, Yin Tian had searched all the rooms without finding any trace of the Gu Master.
"That's strange... Has that guy noticed someone is investigating him?"
Yin Tian stood still, chin in hand, pondering aloud.
Just then, the wall opposite Yin Tian trembled slightly and then opened unexpectedly!
It was a secret door!
Following that, a man walked out from behind the secret door.
He had barely taken one step out when he saw Yin Tian across from him with an almost mocking smile.
How did this man find his way here!
The Gu Master's face changed drastically, clearly not expecting to literally bump into love around the corner.
The next second, he turned without hesitation to retreat through the secret door, attempting to close it behind him.
But how could Yin Tian give him that opportunity?
"Think you can run? Too late!"
Yin Tian sprang into action, closing in swiftly to the edge of the secret door.
Just as the secret door was about to close, Yin Tian reached out his hand and firmly gripped the door frame.
Creak, creak...
The sound of machinery jamming rang out, and the secret door failed to close completely, instead, the gap grew wider.
When the opening was large enough for a person to pass through, Yin Tian darted inside the secret door.
Because the Gu Master had an injured leg, his escape was not very fast.
Yin Tian followed closely behind the Gu Master, quickly closing the distance between them.
This was just a secret door carved out within the room, and it was not very large. Moreover, the narrow, winding passageway severely hampered Yin Tian's speed.
Suddenly, Yin Tian chased the Gu Master into a relatively spacious secret chamber.
Three walls surrounded the secret chamber, and the only exit was blocked by Yin Tian.
"Not running anymore? Why'd you stop?"
Yin Tian looked at the Gu Master across from him with a cold smirk, "You didn't expect us to meet again so soon, did you?"
The Gu Master's face turned ashen, Yin Tian's words hitting the mark.
He had never dreamed that Yin Tian would find his residence.
"Yin Tian."
The Gu Master glared at Yin Tian with a frosty gaze and began speaking slowly, "This place is so small, you should be well aware, if I use my Gu, neither of us will survive."
"Then that's none of my concern,"
Yin Tian spread his hands nonchalantly, clearly not taking the Gu Master's threat seriously.
"Hmph!"
The Gu Master let out a cold grunt, "I had thought to leave you be, but you just don't know what's good for you."
The Gu Master made a fierce gesture towards Yin Tian, and in the dim light, a few small black dots flew towards Yin Tian.
Yin Tian's reaction was swift, pulling several silver needles from his pocket.
With a flick of his fingers, the small flying insects released by the Gu Master were impaled by Yin Tian's silver needles!
"Impossible!"
The Gu Master couldn't believe his eyes as he watched Yin Tian.
Such skill was utterly inconceivable!
"There are many things you've yet to see,"
Yin Tian spoke coldly, "This place is quite nice, just right to serve as your coffin."
Hearing this, the Gu Master's face turned pale.
He violently grabbed an empty jar beside him and hurled it at Yin Tian, charging towards him, desperate for a chance to live.
"Heh..."
Yin Tian let out a cold laugh.
Still thinking of running after falling into my hands?
With a flick of his fingers, a sharp whistling sound pierced the air.
Whoosh!
As the sound erupted, the Gu Master's body trembled.
A silver needle had pierced through his throat!
A sensation of powerlessness swept over him.
The Gu Master collapsed to the ground, but a sardonic smile crept onto his face, "Do you think... you've won…"?
With his throat impaled, the Gu Master's voice sounded strange.
Yin Tian's brow furrowed slightly.
Yet the Gu Master looked at Yin Tian with a crazed expression.
"Do you know what…"
"Is called…"
"Yin Jue Heavenly Worm!"
