715: Blood Cloud Demon Cave

"Wait."

"It seems we've been targeted by a Great Yao."

The two passed through the outer reaches of the Blood Cloud Demon Cave.

The heavens secret dial in Zhou Shixi's hand suddenly vibrated violently.

Although no sound was emitted.

His heart, however, tightened.

The vibration of the heavens secret dial indicated that danger was approaching; this was how this heavens secret dial gave its warning.

This Blood Cloud Demon Cave was indeed perilous.

Even with so many preparations made in advance, they were still targeted by an unknown Great Yao.

Zhou Shixi didn't need to remind her.

Ye Lingshuang also felt it.

A clear sense of pressure came from all directions, accompanied by powerful Demonic Qi, trapping the two in the center.

This meant a powerful Yao Beast had seen through their concealment talisman.

It was just that this powerful Yao Beast seemed to be confused by the Demonic Qi sachet hanging from their waists.

That was why it hesitated, as if testing something, and did not immediately attack.

This powerful sense of oppression made Ye Lingshuang's heart pound.

Anxious, faint cold sweat appeared on her face, but she dared not move an inch, not daring to reveal any flaw.

Zhou Shixi's mind raced, and in an instant, a thought struck him.

A crimson fruit suddenly appeared in his hand.

This crimson fruit exuded a faint, inexplicable ancient charm.

Just at the moment the fruit appeared.

The invisible oppressive Demonic Qi seemed to suddenly pause, and the Great Yao in the shadows seemed to be attracted by this crimson fruit, its extremely strong sense of pressure slowly shifting, focusing on this red fruit.

"It really worked."

Zhou Shixi's heart was delighted; this was an artificial Bloodline Source Fruit developed by the Elders of the Clan's Beast Control Hall.

It contained an extremely faint trace of the Golden Crow's Bloodline.

It had a weak effect that could help Yao Beasts Breakthrough their own Bloodline limitations.

This attraction was undoubtedly fatal to Yao Beasts.

Zhou Shixi felt a pang of regret.

At this moment, he could only silently control this artificial Bloodline Source Fruit to fly into the distance.

The next moment.

The invisible, immense pressure completely vanished.

At the same time, the artificial Bloodline Source Fruit also disappeared.

"Let's go."

Sensing the disappearance of the oppressive feeling.

Zhou Shixi sent a telepathic message to Ye Lingshuang.

The two dared not linger.

They silently passed through this area and headed towards the depths of this Blood Cloud Demon Cave.

"Hoo~"

"That was truly too dangerous just now..."

After they were completely far away.

Ye Lingshuang breathed a sigh of relief.

The aura of the Great Yao hidden in the shadows just now was truly terrifying.

If it hadn't been for that crimson fruit.

They had no idea what awaited them.

Zhou Shixi nodded.

If Elder Xiao Yi was in good condition.

He naturally wouldn't need to be so cautious.

But now, that was not the case.

"We have already passed the outer region, and further in, we will reach the core region."

"Very few Cultivators who enter there are able to come out alive."

"I've only heard that in the core of this Blood Cloud Demon Cave, there is a group of Blood Bats."

"They move in groups year-round, their blood-colored figures gathering like a blood cloud."

"This is also the origin of the name Blood Cloud Demon Cave."

"This group of Blood Bats is extremely fierce, firmly occupying this core area rich in Qi and blood."

"None of the various Yao Beasts in the outer region are a match for this group of Blood Bats."

"The one we just encountered is no exception."

Ye Lingshuang transmitted.

Ahead, the pitch-black forest was like the gate of Hell.

If they rushed in, it would likely be a death sentence.

And only this core area was the most abundant in Qi and blood.

The divine tree planted by the Taiyi Sect must be in this core area where the Blood Bats exist.

This massive group of Blood Bats was a natural guardian.

Planting the divine tree here.

Was an excellent choice.

"Blood Bats..."

Zhou Shixi pondered in his heart.

He knew too many types of demonic bats.

To know exactly which type these Blood Bats were, he could only find out by seeing them in person.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Ye, for informing me."

"Fellow Daoist Ye, I intend to go explore. The path ahead is too dangerous, so I suggest you no longer take risks with me."

After thanking Ye Lingshuang.

Zhou Shixi thought for a moment, then continued.

Further ahead, if the Blood Bats were awakened.

Although he had many trump cards.

His cultivation was still weak after all.

He might also find it difficult to escape safely.

"Brother Zhou, since I have come here, I naturally intend to go in and explore."

"Perhaps there will be unexpected gains that can help me."

"If Lingshuang perishes here today, then it can only mean that this is my fate."

Ye Lingshuang shook her head.

She wanted revenge, and that would certainly require taking risks.

Moreover, this core area might hide the secrets of the Taiyi Sect.

They had suddenly taken the divine tree, exposing themselves.

There must have been a purpose behind it.

Seeing Ye Lingshuang's resolute attitude.

Zhou Shixi no longer tried to persuade her.

He once again handed several talismans to Ye Lingshuang.

Zhou Shixi and Ye Lingshuang exchanged glances, then slowly probed into the deep, quiet depths.

Only the Black Small Beast on his shoulder seemed to be sleeping soundly.

The two continued their journey.

Before long, they entered a dense black forest that towered into the sky.

The moment they stepped into this dense forest.

Zhou Shixi felt a chill in his heart.

He felt an invisible, bloodthirsty intent enveloping this dense forest.

It made him feel anxious and breathless.

At this moment.

Ye Lingshuang behind him suddenly reached out and poked Zhou Shixi, then pointed upwards.

Zhou Shixi's heart stirred.

He looked up.

Only to see on the branches of this towering dense forest.

One giant blood-colored demonic bat after another hung upside down.

As far as the eye could see.

Dense, blood-colored demonic bats filled the entire field of vision.

These countless demonic bats hung with folded wings, seemingly in slumber.

The two had not yet fully entered this dense forest.

And had not awakened these countless demonic bats.

If these gigantic blood-colored demonic bats were disturbed.

Zhou Shixi shuddered just thinking about it.

"These are, Bloodthirsty Mad Bats..."

Seeing the appearance of those giant demonic bats clearly.

A name surfaced in Zhou Shixi's mind.

Bloodthirsty Mad Bats... bloodthirsty and murderous.

They especially loved Qi and blood.

Fierce and violent.

Thinking to himself.

Zhou Shixi waved his hand.

Signaling to retreat.

If there was no way to deal with these countless Bloodthirsty Mad Bats.

Entering this dense forest.

Would certainly awaken these demonic bats.

At that time, it would not be pleasant.

Ye Lingshuang understood.

The two slowly retreated.

Until they were far from the dense forest permeated with bloodthirsty intent.

"What should we do?"

Ye Lingshuang asked.

No wonder so few people could emerge from this core area.

So many Blood Bats.

She didn't dare to perceive them carefully, but just a glance was enough to know that each one was powerful.

Moreover, this was only the outer region of that dense forest.

The further in, the stronger the sleeping Blood Bats would likely be.

If these swarming Blood Bats rose up and formed a blood cloud to attack, who could stop them... Ye Lingshuang's heart was heavy.

"I have a solution."
