Above the Skies

Chapter 60: Bat lair

Views:

Wang Xiong used his long whip to clear the way, and for a moment he was invincible. Large areas of bats were continuously beaten down. Everyone ran quickly, hoping to get rid of the bats as soon as possible.

However, as more and more bat blood splattered, there were more and more bats around. The bats didn't want to stay at all, and rushed towards everyone one after another.

"Did we run in the wrong direction? Why are there so many bats? And there are more and more!" Zhou Chi showed a look of despair.

Even though a group of servants were protecting him, Zhou Chi's injuries were getting more and more serious. Zhou Chi showed a look of despair.

"It should be right, don't you feel it, is it getting hotter and hotter here?" Zhou Tianyin frowned.

Indeed, as everyone kept running, waves of heat hit their faces.

"Bats like to live in dark and humid places, but there is a heat wave ahead. Maybe we ran all the way and reached the bottom, the bottom of the magma field!" Wang Xiong nodded.

"That's right, lava. Bats don't like lava. We are on the right track. The bats are only temporary. Just get through it and it will be fine!" A flash of certainty flashed in Zhou Tianyin's eyes.

"Then continue, hurry up!" Wang Xiong said in a deep voice.

"Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa… … … … !"

The 90% long whip quickly cleared the road. Wang Xiong didn't know how many times he had swung the whip, and his arms were a little numb at this moment. However, in this crisis, once the bats get close, everyone will be in danger.

The further down you go, the hotter it gets, and the heat in the air makes everyone sweat.

"There is light ahead!" Wang Tiance suddenly looked overjoyed.

A ray of light ahead gave everyone hope, and they immediately ran away quickly. The closer they got, the hotter and brighter they became.

"You can see the volcanic lava when you turn the corner ahead. Come on, there should be no bats there!" A flash of excitement flashed in Zhou Tianyin's eyes.

Everyone ran quickly and finally reached the corner.

A flick of the long whip.

"Snap, snap, snap!"

All the bats at the corner were cleared instantly, and everyone immediately stepped onto the other side of the corner.

"boom!"

The moment he stepped over, he heard a loud sound like the waves.

Almost everyone showed a look of horror.

What kind of crater is there in front of me? Instead, it is a sea, a sea completely filled with magma. On the seaside, it is actually endless.

The rolling magma was churning, and the heat generated was extremely terrifying. The surrounding mountains were almost burned into the color of glass. In the vast sea of magma, you can even vaguely see some islands.

Everyone who saw the huge sea of fire was shocked.

"Volcano? This is much scarier than a volcano!" Zhou Chi said in horror.

“Chi chi chi chi…!”

The bats all around seemed to be rushing over as well. Attacking everyone instantly.

The coast here is wide, and Wang Tiance and Senior Brother Ma can also relax their hands and feet. Suddenly, the two of them had countless sticks and swords in their hands, and they no longer had to worry about the tunnel collapsing.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a large number of bats were knocked down. However, these bats seemed to have identified Wang Xiong and his group and vowed not to give up until they were destroyed.

In the midst of the anxious battle.

"These bats are crazy!" Zhou Chi was angry.

The giant gate guard was beside Wang Xiong. Wang Xiong sat on the back of the giant gate and looked around.

This is a terrace on the coast, to be precise, on the Magma Coast.

There is a big hole in the mountain wall next to the terrace, which is the tunnel from which they escaped just now.

On the other side of the terrace, there was actually another huge hole. There were bursts of water vapor coming out of the hole, and it was foggy.

There seemed to be an aura of fear among bats at the entrance of the foggy cave. All the bats stayed away and did not dare to approach the foggy cave.

"Let's go to the fog cave!" Wang Xiong said.

Just when Wang Xiong spoke.

Two black figures suddenly appeared among the bats. One went straight towards Wang Xiong, and the other went straight towards Zhou Chi.

"What?" Zhou Chi's expression changed, and he suddenly looked like he was screaming.

However, the black shadow came too fast and arrived in front of Zhou Chi almost instantly. A sharp claw suddenly grabbed Zhou Chi's arm and pierced into the flesh and bones of Zhou Chi's arm.

"Ah!" Zhou Chi screamed in pain.

But at the moment of screaming, the black shadow opened its bloody mouth and bit into Zhou Chi.

The speed was so fast that Zhou Chi had no time to react. In a hurry, Zhou Chi could only see the black shadow's monster-like head. The ferocious mouth looked like it was about to bite off his own head.

"Help!" When Zhou Chi was frightened, he could only cry out.

"Master!" A servant suddenly screamed and rushed over, crashing into Zhou Chi.

"Bang!"

Zhou Chi was knocked away instantly, but the servant did not escape the monster's mouth. With a bang, the servant's head was bitten off, dripping with blood.

The monster spread its wings, which were one foot long. It threw away the headless servant and rushed toward Zhou Chi again.

That servant was in the Wuzong realm. Even if he had just entered the Wuzong realm, he was still stronger than Zhou Chi, but in the blink of an eye, his head was bitten into pieces? No more angry? At this moment, he pounced on Zhou Chi again.

"My life is at risk!" Zhou Chi said with a look of despair.

"boom!"

At this moment, a stick suddenly hit the monster's head hard, and the monster staggered instantly.

"You evil beast, you are seeking death!" Zhou Tianyin shouted softly.

"Yin!"

Zhou Tianyin slashed down with his long sword and suddenly cut off one of the monster's huge wings.

"Roar!"

The monster screamed in pain and rushed towards Zhou Tianyin.

At this moment, Zhou Tianyin could see clearly that it was a bat, a huge bat as tall as a person. Extremely ferocious. Heading straight for Zhou Tianyin.

"Is this the Bat King? The evil beast is looking for death!" Senior Brother Ma shouted again and slammed into him with the stick in his hand.

"boom!"

The stick hit the Bat King's claws.

However, instead of repelling the Bat King, the sticks and claws collided and he was sent back. The Bat King was actually not afraid of the stick and continued to rush towards Zhou Tianyin with a sense of hatred.

Zhou Tianyin's eyes widened and he slashed out his sword again.

"Yin!"

A sword was slashed out, bringing out billowing sword energy, which crashed into Bat King's body. However, the sword energy could not hurt Bat King at all, and Bat King still rushed at him.

"Death!" Zhou Tianyin's eyes widened.

The long sword instantly penetrated the mouth of the Bat King who opened his bloody mouth.

"boom!"

The sword light was fierce and instantly penetrated the Bat King's head. Blood burst out from the back of his head.

At this moment, the Bat King collapsed.

On the other side, another dark figure pounced on Wang Xiong. Jumen's expression changed and he flew towards him.

"boom!"

There was a loud noise, and the giant door flew backwards due to the huge impact of the black shadow.

"What?" Jumen said in surprise.

Although Jumen was not injured, in terms of strength, he couldn't compare to the black shadow

The black shadow was so fast that it arrived in front of Wang Xiong in an instant. Juque had no time to fight back, and Wang Xiong was about to suffer.

"Huh!" Wang Xiong stared.

In a hurry, Wang Xiong didn't dare to hold back, his eyes widened, and the power of his soul exploded instantly, and a wave of evil energy came from the black shadow's head.

"Roar!"

It was like a thunderous tiger roar sounded in the black shadow's head. The black shadow instantly trembled and his head went blank.

Just when the black shadow was briefly distracted, a sword light instantly slashed down.

But Wang Tiance came closer, slashed out with his sword, and instantly cut off the black shadow's head.

"Bang!"

A huge bat head flew out. The shape of the black shadow was also revealed. It was a huge bat as tall as a person, with wings spread out and about a foot long.

"What a big Bat King!" Wang Tiance stared in surprise.

"This monster? It's so scary!" Juque also said in horror.

"Bat King? The Bat King is dead. The bats should have dispersed. Why haven't they dispersed yet?" Juque said in surprise.

"Boom!"

Wang Tiance and Brother Ma continued to kill bats again.

Zhou Chi was so frightened that he peed. Looking at the corpse of the servant not far away, his face was full of horror.

"Sister, I, I don't want to stay here anymore, I want to go out!" Zhou Chi said in panic.

"Protect Zhou Chi!" Zhou Tianyin said to the servants.

"Yes!" All the servants surrounded Zhouchi.

"Why two Bat Kings? They just followed the bat swarm. Two Bat Kings? Is it a male and a female?" Pang Hongfen stepped forward to check.

"No, they are both male. Both Bat Kings are male? The bat swarm has not retreated yet. Is there still a Bat King?" Pang Hongfen said in horror.

Zhou Tianyin also had lingering fears. It was so dangerous just now. The power of this Bat King is at the level of the Martial Saint Realm. No, it may even reach the Martial Saint Realm.

Perhaps because he has been locked up in the underground palace, there is less communication and there is no big progress in spiritual intelligence.

"Go over there, the bats don't dare to get close!" Wang Xiong pointed to the fog cave not far away again.

"Let's go!" Zhou Tianyin also shouted.

All the bats immediately fled when they approached the entrance of the cave surrounded by fog. It was indeed a good refuge.

Everyone quickly approached the fog cave.

"Chichichichichi...!"

The bats shouted anxiously to everyone, but they didn't dare to approach the fog cave. There was only a constant clamor outside the fog, and there were more and more bats.

Standing in the heavy fog, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's really dangerous inside the underground palace!" Zhou Tianyin said with an ugly expression.

"Sister, let's get into the cave quickly. Two Bat Kings are already dead. There won't be another Bat King coming, right?" Zhou Chi shouted in horror.

Zhou Tianyin looked at the dense group of bats and finally nodded.

Perhaps, after entering, the bat couldn't see his group and retreated.

Seeing Zhou Tianyin nodding, Zhou Chi couldn't wait to enter the fog cave: "Hurry, hurry, I don't want to stay here anymore!"

"Shut up!" Wang Xiong suddenly shouted.

"What?" Everyone looked at Wang Xiong.

But he saw Wang Xiong staring at Zhou Chi.

"If it hadn't been for your recklessness just now, we might not have offended the bat group. Do you still want to kill us?" Wang Xiong glared.

"You, you, what did you say? Did you blame me just now? I...!" Zhou Chi's face turned red with shame and anger.

"The fog cave? Is it really a safe place? The bats are too afraid to come close, so aren't you afraid that there are monsters inside that are scarier than the bats?" Wang Xiong glared.

"Ah?" Zhou Chi's expression changed and he suddenly lost his mind.

"Watch your mouth. Don't make any noise when you go in. Don't make any noise. If you attract more dangerous monsters, not only will you die, but all of us will be buried with you!" Wang Xiong shouted with a glare.

"You...!" Zhou Chi suddenly became angry.

"Did you hear that?" Zhou Tianyin also stared.

Zhou Chi just barged in with a roar. If something happened, it would be really tragic. Although Wang Xiong scolded Zhou Chi in front of him, Zhou Tianyin did not blame him at all at this moment. It's better than losing your life.

"I, I know!" Seeing that his sister was angry, Zhou Chi could only say depressedly.

Wang Xiong looked at the others: "Be careful, don't make any noise!"

"Okay!" Everyone nodded.

A person was already dead, and the corpse was torn apart and eaten clean by bats one after another. At this moment, naturally no one dared to mess around.

Wang Xiong and Zhou Tianyin were at the front. Light a torch and go inside.

This foggy cave also has several twists and turns, and the water vapor inside is getting heavier and heavier.

After turning seven turns, we finally reached the innermost part. The water vapor here was so thick that it felt like we were in a sauna. Everyone held their breath.

Finally I saw it, a huge deep pool. The pool is full of transpiration water, and the surrounding water mist comes from the evaporation of the water in the pool. Obviously, there is a magma sea outside, which is constantly evaporating the water in the pool.

Everyone was walking on a circle of terraces beside the deep pool, but above them, they looked like grottoes. Many of the grottoes are so high that no one can see the top at a glance.

However, the moment I saw the grotto. Zhou Chi trembled unconsciously and quickly covered his mouth to prevent himself from making any sound.

Because, in the countless grottoes above the water pool, bats are hanging upside down one by one at the moment. The smallest of these bats is as tall as a person.

The body shape is the same as the Bat King in the outside world, or even bigger. But in the largest grotto, there is a huge blood-colored bat that is three people tall.

The three-person tall bloody bat is the Bat King. The most tall person is just a bat general.

Looking at the huge Bat King and the hundreds of Bat generals around him, almost everyone felt despair in their hearts. Didn't everyone escape to a safe place, but went directly to the bat's lair

This is seeking death!

Everyone's expressions changed.

Fortunately, all the Bat Kings and Bat Generals were asleep, and you could even hear the slightest snore.

Outside bats don't dare to come in, not because there are natural enemies inside, but because their 'king' is resting and they don't dare to come in and disturb it.

Bats like dark and moist environments. Isn’t this a dark and humid environment

Wang Xiong and Zhou Tianyin made gestures to inform everyone to quietly exit.

At this time, a look is enough, no one wants to stay in such a scary place. Go out quietly first and then talk.

Tiptoeing, everyone slowly followed the way they came and retreated outside.

"Gulu!"

At this moment, Zhou Chi stepped on something and slipped.

This slip scared everyone.

Senior Brother Ma hugged Zhou Chi. Fortunately, the bat generals were not awakened. With lingering fear in their hearts, everyone stared at Zhou Chi. Zhou Chi was also so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat and did not dare to refute.

Only Wang Xiong's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at the thing that had just tripped Zhou Chi in surprise.

An extinguished torch!

An extinguished torch? It's not just that simple, but Wang Xiong still recognizes this extinguished torch. This is a special torch made by Dongfang Wangfu.

Why are the torches from Dongfang Palace here

Wang Xiong looked around, and suddenly saw another broken lantern.

A few days ago, Wang Xiong opened another entrance. Wang Xiong asked Wang Zhongquan to throw down a torch, and then hung down a white pig with a lantern tied to it to test.

Isn't this the extinguished torch and the lantern on the pig...

Wang Xiong narrowed his eyes and looked at the sleeping Bat King. Was it the monster that swallowed the white pig that day

Wang Xiong raised his head and looked at the dark sky above his head. In an instant, Wang Xiong understood where he was.

Directly above the water pool here is the entrance to the Dongfang Palace.
