170 Mental energy assassination (2/2)

Sou- Sou- Sou...

Limitless sounds of flying beasts sounded from within the caves.

Retreat!

Zhao Feng’s expression changed dramatically. His figure flashed just as a heart shaking screech containing mental energy sounded. Everyone felt their minds hurt and Lin Fan’s ears and nose leaked blood.

The next instant, a solid, full one hundred or so black blood bats leapt at the 4. The bat leader, at the front, had a wingspan of 2-3 yards and every stroke he took would blow the dust into the air. It was a bat king and it let out an ear piercing screech, which caused the true force of the group to lost control. The bat’s cultivation was probably close to the 5th Sky.

Looking at the bunch of black bats, Zhao Feng’s hair stood up. But luckily, the screech from the bat king didn’t affect him. The 4 were surrounded and fought a tough battle. At critical points, they used their killing moves.

Lightning Wind Palm!

Zhao Feng thrust out one palm after another, which slew a few bats every time.

Back Wave Sword Technique!

Lin Fan held his long sword and he waved it through the air, causing airwaves which enveloped the nearby bats. Quan Chen had the highest cultivation and he teamed up with Ran Xiaoyuan to fight the bat king. The bat king screeched multiple times, which affected their consciousness and Quan Chen and Ran Xiaoyuan couldn’t take it down in a short amount of time. At the same time, the black blood bats nearby grew in number with each of them at least at the 1st Sky.

“Break… !”

Quan Chen suddenly pulled out a long bronze sword and he sliced forward. This one sword instantly killed tens of bats and it left a bloody mark so deep that the bone could be seen on the bat king.

That one sword had forced the bat king to retreat.

“Middle grade Mortal weapon.”

Zhao Feng was slightly surprised.

It was a Middle grade Mortal weapon, the same as Liu Yue’er’s. But it was twice to three times stronger than when in the hands of Quan Chen.

“Good chance to slay the bat king!”

Zhao Feng’s eyes lit up.

“Run!”

However, Quan Chen suddenly turned around and sliced heavily towards one of the exits before heading in that direction.

Run?

Quan Chen’s actions made Zhao Feng surprised because if Quan Chen and Ran Xiaoyuan lasted a bit longer, they could slay the bat king. But Zhao Feng didn’t know that Quan Chen wanted to leave Zhao Feng.

“Run separately.”

Facing such a vast amount of bats, Zhao Feng soon made his decision. Coincidentally, there were many paths here.

Quan Chen chose one, while Ran Xiaoyuan chose another. Because Lin Fan remembered what Zhao Feng had said, the two took the same path.

“Quan Chen and Ran Xiaoyuan are both disciples of an Elder and the Clan Master respectively, meaning that they both have their own hidden tricks.” Zhao Feng thought and he didn’t call Ran Xiaoyuan.

The group of bats soon split into 3 and the bat king charged after Quan Chen.

Two other bats at the 3rd Sky of the Ascended Realm both led a bunch of bats and charged after Ran Xiaoyuan.

Zhao Feng and Lin Fan were unlucky. There was a total of 4 bats at the 3rd Sky leading a horde of black blood bats following the two because there were more people here.

“Dammit! So unlucky!”

Zhao Feng cursed as he realised that the path in front was a dead end.

The bats following them were 70-80 in number with the 4 leaders at the 3rd Sky of the Ascended Realm.

“Brother Zhao, don’t worry about me. You fight your way out.”

Lin Fan understood that Zhao Feng was far stronger than him and as long as the latter didn’t meet the bat king he could escape.

“There’s no chance.”

Zhao Feng stood where he was and shook his head.

The 70-80 black blood bats screeched one after another, sending waves of sonic waves which enveloped the two in mental energy. The screeching together couldn’t even be blocked by cultivators at the 4th Sky of the Ascended Realm.

Plop!

Blood leaked out of Lin Fan’s mouth, ears and nose as he passed out.

“It’s better this way.”

Zhao Feng stood at the center of the mental energy attack and he circulated his true force to block the mental energy. Inside the dimension of his left eye, the azure light had reached 2 foot 2 inches and it kept on absorbing the mental energy from the attack.

Zhao Feng slowly took off his eyepatch as his hair wavered in the wind.

“Mental energy assassination… ”

A sharp azure eye releasing an ancient aura appeared, like it was the lord of darkness.
