The Journey of Projection Upgrading
Chapter 175: End

"YOU"

Ning Ming glared angrily at Chen An, his eyes seemed to be filled with intense anger, with a hint of unknown meaning.

"You, as a dignified innate expert, actually resort to sneak attacks, it is truly disrespectful!"

One sentence, young people don't respect martial ethics!

Chen An was stunned by Ning Ming's words.

Wow.

Where do you have the face to say this?

The White Family Master just had a miserable look, you don't care about the dignity of your innate status and resort to sneak attacks.

How come now it is the young people who don't respect martial ethics?

Have you seen the White Family Master speak?

Chen An twitched at the corner of his mouth, his gaze fell on the White Family Master in the distance.

The White Family Master was standing next to several elders, surrounded by them.

The backlash of the Reversing Blood Dan kept emerging, causing his whole body to be tormented at the moment.

But even so, when he heard Ning Ming's shameless remarks, he couldn't help but twitch his mouth, as if he didn't know what to say.

This was also because he still wanted to save face, otherwise he would have cursed a long time ago.

"This senior."

Chen An sighed, ready to say something to clarify his doubts before the other party died.

However, just as he was about to speak, he realized something was wrong.

In front of him, several fine threads were rushing towards him.

Upon closer inspection, these were several extremely fine silver needles.

The silver needles were exquisitely crafted and very small, coupled with the fast speed at the moment, so they were not noticed by anyone.

Chen An didn't have time to do much, just subconsciously reached out his hand to block for a moment.

"Haha!"

Ning Ming's face immediately changed, "Young people do not know their place, ultimately being careless."

"This is a carefully tuned silver needle by me, with no less than five kinds of strange poisons. After I adjusted it, even an innate expert will be greatly affected."

Everyone present felt a sudden tightness in their hearts.

Five kinds of strange poisons mixed together, it sounded terrifying, could it really be fatal?

However, they heard Ning Ming's words continue.

"If you are affected by my strange poison, even if you are an innate expert, if you do not detoxify early, you will be greatly affected for the rest of your life."

Ning Ming sneered, "Young man, leave quickly, do not entangle with me here."

What, it won't be fatal after all.

Then why exaggerate so much?

Even with five kinds of strange poisons, he didn't kill anyone.

People around silently complained.

Chen An also felt speechless.

But he also knew that the reason why the poison didn't kill anyone was not because the poison was weak, but because the constitution of an innate martial artist was too abnormal.

If the difference in constitution between Astral Qi and ordinary people was not significant, then the difference between the constitution of an innate expert and an ordinary person was already quite large.

In this case, few toxins could really kill an innate expert.

Anyway, Chen An had never seen it before.

Strange poisons that could have a great impact on innate experts like the one in front of him were already quite remarkable.

At ordinary times, it might be a bit troublesome.

However, Chen An slowly raised his head, his gaze fixed on the other party, his face looking somewhat strange.

Then, under the puzzled gaze of the other party, he raised his hand.

A faint sunlight fell, shining on Chen An, allowing everyone around to see his current appearance.

In the palm of Chen An's hand, a faint mist enveloped.

A very thin layer of ice crystals covered Chen An's arm, just because it fit well with his body, it was not noticed.

And those silver needles?

All were stuck.

To prevent detection by the perception of Astral Qi, these silver needles were not manipulated by Ning Ming with Astral Qi, they should have been activated by a certain hidden weapon mechanism.

For an innate existence, this was much more concealed than making a move oneself, and it made it easier for people to fall for it.

But the corresponding strength was somewhat lacking.

Coupled with Chen An's early precautions, it ended up in this situation.

"Do you have any more tricks?"

Chen An's face looked strange, carefully and carefully collecting all the silver needles and putting them aside.

These silver needles were good stuff.

Even the strange poison that could affect an expert below innate, for those beneath the innate level, it was definitely fatal.

In a way, it was something very rare to come by in the world.

Whether selling them directly or using them to plot against someone, it was a good choice.

Seeing Chen An's actions, Ning Ming's face turned pale, becoming even uglier.

Without saying much, just looking at Chen An's appearance, he understood that Chen An had no real threat.

Seeing Chen An's cautious appearance, how could he look poisoned?

This was also something he had overlooked.

Although the Astral Qi of a general innate expert was powerful, it was still an invisible energy, condensed into nothingness.

But Chen An's Mystical Ice Qi could condense ice, forming a barrier on various parts of his body.

In this way, it was difficult for hidden weapons like these silver needles to take effect.

Of course, the premise was to be prepared in advance.

Otherwise, the one who should have been poisoned would have been poisoned.

But Chen An obviously had been prepared in advance.

It was a matter of course.

Who was he, he had always been the one to plot against others, when would others plot against him.

Such a simple trick, would be surprising if it worked.

"Do you have any more tricks?"

Carefully removing the silver needles, Chen An looked somewhat expectantly at the other party.

Yes, it was expectation.

At this moment, he had completely treated the other party as a little boss with precious equipment.

He had finally elevated to the innate level after much effort, and spent a lot of money, and he always had to find a way to make up for some losses, right?

The current Ning Ming seemed like a good object to him.

"Do you really want to take this road with me?"

Ning Ming's face turned pale, and after a while, he spoke in a deep voice, "There are many people on the Heavenly Rankings who are my good friends. Although I don't know your background, I still advise you to be careful."

"If we stop here, how about we make peace?"

He spoke in a grave tone, his tone seeming to soften.

Looking like this, he seemed to be ready to compromise.

But he couldn't just give in.

After all, the display of ferocity by Chen An was too much.

Clearly the difference in strength between the two sides was not too great, but when the other party made a move just now, he was injured in an instant, showing too much ferocity.

He had to bow his head reluctantly, no matter what he thought.

Ah

In response to Ning Ming's proposal, Chen An seemed a bit hesitant, "Then this Pure Spirit Flower?"

Seeing Chen An's seemingly hesitant attitude, Ning Ming felt relieved, and quickly spoke, "The things of heaven and earth should be respected by those with virtue."

"If you want it, just take it."

"But since you are in your prime, you may not need this life-extending item. If you are willing, I am willing to exchange several immortal relics for only one petal of the flower."

He seemed to still not have given up on the idea of obtaining the Pure Spirit Flower for longevity.

However, seeing Chen An's ferocity just now, he naturally no longer had the thought of taking the entire Pure Spirit Flower, only wanting one petal of the flower.

For him, one petal was just enough, enough to prolong his life for a considerable time.

"Immortal relics, that's not bad"

Chen An nodded, seeming somewhat tempted.

"So be it."

The two sides instantly reached a consensus.

The atmosphere on the spot became much more harmonious.

Not far away, the White Family members watched this scene with anxiety.

Looking at Chen An in the distance, they wanted to say something, but given Chen An's display of power just now, they didn't dare to speak out.

There was no way, power was paramount in this day and age.

For the current members of the White Family, Chen An's status and authority had soared infinitely, to the point where they dare not speak loudly while looking at Chen An's face.

This was also about being pragmatic.

After all, for them, in a sense, everyone's lives were in Chen An's hands, so they naturally dared not say too much.

Chen An was much more accommodating than they had imagined.

This made Ning Ming feel somewhat relaxed.

But he relaxed too early.

If Chen An's former enemies were standing here, they would probably have run away without a word, they wouldn't have hesitated at all despite Chen An's display of goodwill.

After all, they had already suffered losses.

But Ning Ming evidently did not have similar experiences.

He was already very cautious, even though he had reached a consensus with Chen An, he still kept a certain distance from him.

But unless he left immediately, the outcome was already determined.

A moment later, Ning Ming looked at Chen An who suddenly appeared behind him, his face showing astonishment.

"How did you"

There was astonishment on his face, with a hint of incredulity, as his body silently fell down.

As for Ning Ming, he did not find it surprising that Chen An suddenly made a move.

After all, everyone was experienced in such situations and naturally had corresponding preparations, so it wasn't completely unexpected.

But even with a defense, he was still hit by Chen An, who found an opportunity to strike him.

Until his body fell to the ground, he still couldn't understand how Chen An had managed to get behind him.

Why didn't his strong Astral Qi sense Chen An this time?

In response to this question, Chen An's answer was actually quite simple.

The Mystical Ice Force was not just an ordinary innate technique.

As a heritage left by Emperor Taizu of the Great Song, in addition to the cultivation methods, there were also corresponding concealment techniques for hiding one's aura.

Chen An had already practiced this technique to proficiency long ago, so it wasn't too difficult to momentarily deceive his opponent's Astral Qi sense.

Of course, Ning Ming relied too much on his own Astral Qi sense, which was also a problem.

In fact, even Chen An himself had not expected that he would succeed so easily.

"Feeling a bit weak."

Looking at Ning Ming who had silently fallen, Chen An felt a bit speechless, suddenly feeling that he had wasted his efforts.

For this battle today, he had prepared an escape route, as well as made preparations to forcibly elevate his strength by consuming his energy, in all aspects, everything was done to be foolproof.

To prepare for such a long time, the result was getting this guy?

So weak, how did you make it to the Heavenly Rankings?

Chen An was puzzled and thoughtful.

He realized that he had spent a lot of money on source energy.

Up to this day, he had practiced up to the third layer of Astral Qi, but he was still far from reaching the innate level.

So his current innate cultivation was not achieved by his own cultivation, but by forcibly raising it through source energy.

It took a full two hundred units of source energy.

Two hundred source energies, Chen An still felt a bit heartbroken at this number even now.

The result was just for this guy?

Chen An felt a bit speechless.

Of course, despite being speechless, this money had to be spent.

After all, Ning Ming might be weak, but it was only relative to an innate expert.

For a normal innate expert, Ning Ming might seem weak, but in terms of Astral Qi, there was an insurmountable gap.

Even a fierce man like the White Family Master, before swallowing the Reverse Blood Dan earlier, he probably couldn't---

No, wait.

As he thought, Chen An suddenly realized something.

Judging by Ning Ming's performance just now, if the White Family Master had made a move against him when he was at his peak strength, he might not have lost.

Wow.

No wonder you are an innate expert, yet you only made a move when the White Family Master was weak.

It turns out you're really weak.

Shaking his head silently, Chen An pondered for a moment, and finally reached out his hand to resolve the already unconscious Ning Ming.

"Are you okay?"

After doing all this, he turned around and looked at Bai Qing not far away.

Bai Qing stood there, looking at Chen An's gaze and shook her head, her eyes showing a thick strangeness.

"You did a great thing."

After a moment, she smiled, "Thank you again for saving me."

"It's nothing."

Chen An also smiled.

Then, he turned his gaze and looked ahead.

To be precise, it was on the Pure Spirit Flower.

Without any hesitation, he directly picked the Pure Spirit Flower.

Swish

A wave of strange fluctuations appeared, rippling in the area.

With the Pure Spirit Flower finally being picked, many of the strange phenomena in this place seemed to gradually calm down, gradually returning to normal.

Everything was gradually settling down.

In the distance, the eyes of the White Family members were firmly fixed on Chen An.

Of course, some people's gazes were focused on the Pure Spirit Flower, like the White Family Master.

But at this point, nobody had any hope for the flower.

If it were an ordinary person, they might still have some naivety, but the people standing here were mostly experienced veterans and would not be dreaming.
