Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 140: Fiend Woman (1)

The Nine Infant Ghost was different from the Bracelet Fiend Skull. The fiend skull primarily relied on poison to kill, and its actual attacks were mediocre, but the Nine Infant Ghost was far more vicious. It could penetrate through Astral energy barriers, and those it attacked would have baneful energy enter their bodies and attack their organs. This was one of the killing weapons of the Ghost Raising Sect, and when they were cultivated to high levels, they could kill even Celestial Heart and Violet Palace cultivators.

Daoist Fuyu's infant ghost clearly wasn't at this level, but as it manifested as nine skulls, it clearly had the basic form. Even a Mortal Shedding Realm Nine Revolutions body might not be able to take an attack from it.

As the Nine Infant Ghost attacked, Tang Jie roared and used the Formless Golden Body and the Aquagel Shroud. He stood in front of Miss Xu and used his own body to take the attacks of the ghost.

The Nine Infant Ghost let out a shriek as it attacked. It broke through the Aquagel Shroud, all nine skulls biting down on Tang Jie's back. Tang Jie felt like someone had stabbed into his back with nine knives, and he groaned in pain. At the same time, baneful energy entered Tang Jie's body.

"Raaa!" Tang Jie bellowed as he activated the Blood Refining Spirit spell, putting a halt to the baneful energy attack. He circulated his blood energy, expelling the baneful energy and neutralizing the attack.

"Are you okay?" Miss Xu shouted.

Tang Jie bared his teeth. "It hurts a lot."

Miss Xu was somewhat dumbfounded.

"It hurts a lot"?

This was his reply?

This was what he felt from the Nine Infant Ghost's attack?

The two of them looked at each other, neither of them talking. Time seemed to freeze for a brief second, as if someone had pressed the pause button for the world.

In that brief second, Tang Jie's relaxed and confident image was deeply branded in the girl's heart.

She looked at Tang Jie and said, "My name is Xu Miaoran."

Hmm?

What did she mean by giving him her name?
