Sacred Martial Divine Sovereign

In the dark and damp tunnel, there was no mist on the surrounding stone walls. However, it gave people an evil and damp feeling!    

"Everyone be careful, don't be bitten by these bats. They seem to be able to suck our blood to strengthen themselves!"    

"Don't panic, come closer to me, use the flames to deal with these poisonous creatures!"    

A panicked voice sounded out from within the gloomy passageway. The source of the voice was surging flames, sword qi crisscrossed, spear lights seized people, and the sound of the zither never stopped!    

Black bats that were covered in red dots danced back and forth in the sky. They madly swung their swords and spears at the crowd of people who wielded swords and pikes. Sharp cries filled the surroundings of the passageway, and the sound was rather terrifying!    

"Flame Explosion!"    

Wild roars resounded like thunder. Scorching flames and sword Qi merged together and splashed in all directions. Ao Lingchen took the lead and blocked in front of everyone. He waved his Heavenly Fiend crazily, trying to force the approaching red bat to retreat!    

The sword pierced through the air and forced the bat to retreat. Ao Lingchen furrowed his brows. His heart was also extremely heavy. He had never thought that he would encounter such a terrifying swarm of bats in this tunnel. Although these bats were not strong, they were huge in number. Their speed was astonishing, and they had a pair of sharp teeth. All of these things combined together. This caused them to fall into a life and death situation!    

It was also because Ao Lingchen and the others were greedy. Having seen the map of the underground palace, he already knew that the danger of the passageway in the middle was far greater than the other two passageways. However, in order to obtain more and better treasures... In the end, they still walked into this passageway.    

When they first walked into this tunnel, Ao Lingchen and the others easily dodged many traps with some markings on the map. They soon arrived near the location of the treasure. But... Just as they excitedly rushed towards the location of the treasure, they encountered a difficult situation... It was these bats that were crazily slaughtering their way over from all directions!    

These bats that were covered in red dots were indeed not strong. Each of them was equivalent to a Second Grade Devil Beast, and there were very few Third Level Devil Beasts bats. However, they had a huge number of them, and there were countless of them!    

Ancient people said, The more ants there are, the more elephant they bite. Even if the strength of the ants is insignificant compared to the strength of the elephants, when the number of ants reaches a certain extent, no matter how strong the elephant is, it will still die under the bites of the ants.    

This was the predicament Ao Lingchen and the others were facing right now. The number of bats in front of them was too large. Although they could easily kill them with their strength, they could not kill them!    

This was the reason why Ao Lingchen and the others were flustered by the swarm of bats!    

"We can't drag this on any longer. If this continues, our Yuan Qi and other things will be exhausted by these bats. At that time, let alone advancing to seize the treasures, it will be difficult for us to escape alive! We must think of a way!"    

The long spear trembled, and a cold light flickered. Every time the silver spear in Ouyang Yu's hand stabbed out, it would release a sky full of bright spots. The bright spots of spear light rained down like rain, and the bats in front of him would fall in droves.    

However, the sharp spear light would shoot out and kill a large number of bats. To the huge swarm of bats in front of them, it was insignificant. They were like a bucket of water in a great river, like rice in a wheat field.    

"What else can we do now? If we want to move forward, we have to face an even fiercer attack from the swarm of bats. If I want to retreat, I will have to face the pursuit of the bats that fill the sky. All we can do now is fight with them. The last thing we can do is to exhaust our Yuan Qi first. Or will they be killed by us first!?"    

The red silk coiled around and rotated in midair. In Mo Yiyun's hands, the red silk was like a bright red curtain, like a hard shield, blocking the bats that were trying to approach the red silk!    

"Now, we are in a dilemma!"    

Xia Jingxue was not willing to be outdone. The two whips in her hands crazily struck. The two Purple Whips were like two purple pythons that had come alive in her hands. They frantically swung their tails and the bats that were trying to approach were sent flying by the whips.    

Everyone used their own special materials to fully display their abilities. They wanted to kill the bats that were charging at them recklessly in front of them!    

Unfortunately, their numbers were still too small. They were facing the bats that blotted out the sky and covered the earth. They were simply unable to defend themselves flawlessly. After a short moment, many bat bite wounds had already appeared on their bodies. The bat poison slowly seeped into their bodies from these wounds.    

The bat poison was not strong, but there was a fatal factor in this poison, and that was to make one's nerves numb.    

Nerves numbness was the biggest fatal injury to the people in front of them. Nerves numbness would cause some abnormalities to appear in these people's bodies, and their reactions would become sluggish. They wouldn't be able to keep up with their thoughts!    

"What should we do? If this continues, we will all die here!"    

A solemn voice sounded out from Ouyang Yu's mouth. He waved his spear and killed the bats that were charging towards him. He looked at Ao Lingchen who was swinging his sword at him. He didn't know when it had started. Like the others around him, he had regarded Ao Lingchen as his backbone!    

Ouyang Yu's question made Ao Lingchen calm down for a moment. At this moment, his heart was also filled with complex emotions. He knew very well that if this continued, they would not need to exhaust the Yuan Qi in their bodies. The accumulated poison in their bodies would numb their bodies. Once their numb bodies couldn't provide a swift and fierce reaction speed, they would become numb. It was time for them to die!    

What should they do? What should they do?    

Ao Lingchen was extremely anxious, and his heart was in chaos!    

"I can't panic, I can't panic. There must be a way!"    

The frustration in his heart made Ao Lingchen's head heat up, and his mind went blank. He could not think of any countermeasures. Having experienced many life-and-death battles, he understood. The more it was like this, the more he needed to calm down. Only by completely calming down would he be able to find a better solution.    

Forcing himself to calm down, Ao Lingchen waved his sword and slashed at the bats that were charging at him. His eyes quickly swept across the swarm of bats. He wanted to find a way to break out of this situation among the swarm of bats!    

"There must be a weakness. If these things don't have a weakness, then they are invincible. There must be a weakness!"    

After calming himself down, Ao Lingchen's eyes flickered as he scanned his surroundings.    

The bats blotted out the sky and covered the earth. Sharp cries resounded continuously. Ao Lingchen's eyes focused on the backs of the bats, and a trace of extraordinary splendor appeared in his eyes.    

"That's it!"    

In front of Ao Lingchen, his eyes were fixed on a crimson bat that was completely covered in blood behind the numerous bats. This bat was hidden behind the numerous bats, and it was blocked by numerous bats. It seemed to be so secretive and inconspicuous.    

However, when Ao Lingchen swept his gaze over it, a thought appeared in his mind. Perhaps this was a way to break out of this predicament. It was very likely that this was the Bat King. It was very likely that this thing was directing the bats to attack them. If they could kill it... Perhaps the bats would disperse on their own!    

"I can only give it a try!"    

Ao Lingchen's eyes flashed with a bright light. He made up his mind. In this situation, he could only take a gamble!
