A total of 7 disciples gathered in front of the entrance of the bat's nest.
As expected, the difficulty of the 2nd trial was obviously higher. None of the 7 who entered the cave were eliminated, nor were there any deaths.
The weird thing was that Zhao Feng and the other 2 who seemed to be the weakest seemed to be very relaxed. Instead of tiredness, they seemed to be full of energy.
"Brother Zhao … you've broken through?"
Yang Gan realised the change in Zhao Feng's aura.
Zhao Feng had just broken through not long ago, so his aura was wild and he didn't hide it.
Bei Moi and Quan Chen's expressions changed slightly as they looked at each other.
Both of them had complex expressions on their faces as they felt an unknown pressure.
For Bei Moi, the difference in cultivation between him and Zhao Feng was almost negligible.
Bei Moi was filled with battle intent. Since Zhao Feng's cultivation was similar to his, they could have a fair fight.
Bei Moi was very confident in his own strength. He hadn't used his full strength in the competition.
"We can't let him leave the Floating Crest Palace alive …"
Quan Chen's expression was dark and wary.
He had a feeling that if he didn't take care of Zhao Feng soon, he would be a great threat to them in the future.
"There were many fortunes in this trial. My breakthrough was very smooth."
Zhao Feng said calmly.
Those who had made it this far had all improved and Zhao Feng wasn't the only one who had received fortunes.
But Zhao Feng had improved the fastest, followed by Bei Moi and Lin Fan.
"Good, with the combined strength of the 7 of us, we should be able to break through the bat's nest. I have a feeling that once we get through this, it'll be much easier to get out of the bat cave. "
Yang Gan started to plan.
Zhao Feng understood that there were thousands of bats in the cave and they were all at least at the 1st Sky of the Ascended Realm.
Bei Moi said to the group: "According to my investigation, there's a bat emperor at the 6th Sky of the Ascended Realm. Apart from that, there's also 6 bat kings at the 4th to 5th Sky of the Ascended Realm. Luckily, the cave is very big and these bat kings are scattered everywhere. "
Hearing this, Zhao Feng and the others were deeply frightened.
This information was obtained by Bei Moi after entering the lair. Although Yang Gan had attracted the attention of some of the stronger bats, Bei Moi's strength could be seen.
Overall, the strength of the bats was superior to the Trial Takers in both quantity and quality.
Even someone as strong as Yang Gan had to run away when facing the human wave tactic.
Those with lower strength might not even have the ability to protect themselves.
"We definitely can't fight them head-on. We have to work together to kill a few Bat Kings before the Bat Emperor appears. If everything went smoothly, he would be able to obtain some rare materials. If things don't go well, we'll fight our way out. In the worst case scenario, we might have to go our separate ways and leave it to fate … "
Yang Gan finished his plan.
There were only three plans.
The first, in the most ideal situation, was to plunder some precious materials and seize opportunities.
The second was to work together to carve out a path of blood and only hope to survive.
The third was to fall into a desperate situation, where no one could help the other, and they would have to rely on their own strength.
After Yang Gan explained his plan, he sighed inwardly. According to his analysis, the first possibility was less than ten percent. The third possibility was the most likely.
This was because there were many bats in the nest and there were also many powerful Bat Kings. If they were to be careless, they might fall into a desperate situation.
"This plan isn't bad, but what are Brother Yang's chances of winning against the Bat Emperor?"
Zhao Feng asked.
The Bat Emperor had reached the 6th Sky of the Ascended Realm and was comparable to some Deacons of the Clan.
"The chances aren't high, but in the worst case scenario, we should be able to fight for a while."
Yang Gan gave an answer after some thought.
Hearing this, Zhao Feng was slightly surprised - Yang Gan's strength was stronger than he had expected.
The group discussed for a while longer before they prepared to leave.
"Senior Brother Yang, you missed out on another possibility."
Zhao Feng smiled faintly.
"What possibility?"
Yang Gan was surprised. He had already expected the worst outcome.
"Washing the bat's nest with blood."
Zhao Feng's lips moved, pausing between each word as a message.
A light flashed in Yang Gan's eyes as he revealed a trace of shock. He then shook his head and bitterly smiled, "Junior Brother Zhao, don't joke around."
Yang Gan then ignored Zhao Feng and led the group into the bat's nest.
The weakest of the seven had the battle power of the 3rd Sky of the Ascended Realm and most of them were even at the 4th Sky of the Ascended Realm.
Therefore, when everyone joined forces to kill their way into the nest, the scattered bats were defeated and easily killed.
"Everyone maintain our speed. If we meet the Bat King, we'll kill it together."
Yang Gan ordered.
The group soon met a group of close to a hundred bats and one of them was a Bat King whose cultivation was close to the 5th Sky of the Ascended Realm.
Flipping Cloud Palm!
Yang Gan waved his palm, and a massive palm energy slammed into the sea of clouds, instantly killing five or six bats.
The moment they clashed, the Bat King was injured by Yang Gan.
Zhao Feng's expression changed - his Senior Brother's strength was more terrifying than he had imagined. No wonder he was ranked 2nd amongst the Core disciples and could even fight for the Head disciple.
Sou — —
A dark green lightning-like sword shadow drew a strange arc in the air and stabbed into the Bat King's throat.
Plop!
The Bat King's giant body fell to the ground.
Yang Gan was slightly surprised and he looked at Zhao Feng with surprise in his eyes.
The Luohou Bow in Zhao Feng's hand was extremely powerful and it could even threaten cultivators at the 4th Sky of the Ascended Realm.
After the Bat King was killed, the remaining bats scattered in fear and half of them were either injured or dead.
"Brother Zhao, your archery skills are very strong. Help me kill the Bat King. I'll give you a portion of the resources in the nest. "
Yang Gan smiled and said.
"Sure."
Zhao Feng nodded his head. His goal wasn't just to collect some resources.
The group continued to advance, and before long, another bat king appeared. It led a swarm of 100 to 200 bats, some of which had escaped earlier.
This Bat King had reached the 5th Sky of the Ascended Realm and Yang Gan had the upper hand, but he couldn't kill it.
"Northern Dark Heavenly Water - Heavy Wave Slash!"
Bei Moi roared as his figure turned into a few blurs that gathered above the bat king. A thick ripple of energy slashed onto the bat king's body like a ten thousand kilogram blade.
Boom!
The Bat King was smashed onto the ground by Bei Moi and Yang Gan's sneak attack.
Everyone's heart jumped - they didn't expect Bei Moi to be so strong.
Zhao Feng analysed in his heart. Bei Moi's Northern Dark Heavenly Water wasn't any weaker than his Lightning Wind Palm and it might even be of a higher level.
The group then teamed up to finish off the Bat King.
"Very successful. We've finished off two of the six Bat Kings so quickly. As long as we finish off two more, everything will be easy. "
Yang Gan smiled.
Wait!
Zhao Feng's expression suddenly changed: "These bats aren't running away."
In the next moment, there was a soul-shaking cry that shook the mountain walls. Accompanied by fierce gales, a giant bat emperor with a wingspan of forty to fifty feet flew out from the depths of the nest.
Instantly, the nearby bats trembled and their morale rose.
"Not good! The bat emperor's been alerted so quickly. "
Yang Gan took a deep breath and jumped into the air. He pulled out an ancient golden long blade and slashed downwards. A golden blade light that was tens of yards long slashed through the air like a cloud exploding, killing tens of bats and engulfing the bat emperor.
The ancient golden long blade in Yang Gan's hand was also a Middle grade Mortal weapon and it could threaten those at the 6th Sky of the Ascended Realm.
Hu ~ Sou ~
The Bat Emperor let out a deafening screech and rushed out from the explosion of the saber aura. It did not suffer any substantial damage.
Sou! Sou! Sou …
Under the screeching of the bat emperor, hundreds of bats gathered from all directions.
In addition, four Bat Kings rushed over and surrounded them.
They were surrounded!
Everyone's expression changed dramatically. The situation that Yang Gan had expected had finally appeared.
The situation was even more terrifying than they had imagined. There were hundreds of bats everywhere, which meant that they had the strength of hundreds at the early stages of the Ascended Realm.
Apart from Yang Gan, everyone else couldn't even move an inch as the sound wave enveloped the entire area.
The invisible sound wave contained a mental energy attack that affected their consciousness.
"Zhe zhe, there's so many of these bats."
A smile appeared on Zhao Feng's face.
Quan Chen and co. who were fighting couldn't help but glare at him in anger. How could he still smile in this situation?
Bo …
Zhao Feng opened his mouth and spat out a wave of mental energy sound that shot out.
Boom! Boom! Boom …
A large number of bats fell from the sky.
In an instant, twenty to thirty bats fell from the sky.
An empty space appeared in front of Zhao Feng.
The weird thing was that the mental energy sound wave he sent out was only effective against the bats. Not only did it not harm the people nearby, it even seemed to be able to cancel out a portion of the bats' mental energy attack.
Bo! Bo! Bo …
Zhao Feng opened his mouth and a large number of bats fell from the sky. Some of them ran away in fear.
The crowd was shocked by the scene.
Zhao Feng's mental energy sound wave seemed to be able to counter these bats. Even the bat king's speed slowed down when it got close to Zhao Feng and fear appeared on its face.
In reality, Zhao Feng's mental energy sound wave was based on the structure of the bats and at a certain frequency, it could deal the most damage to the bats.
There was a huge difference between a human and a bat's structure, especially in terms of hearing.
Therefore, the cultivators present didn't feel any effect.
Sou ~ ~
Zhao Feng pulled the Luohou Bow and a dark azure arrow flashed like lightning, piercing through a bat king at the 4th Sky of the Ascended Realm.
The nearby people had their mouths agape.
It seemed like Zhao Feng was a bat killer. Both his mental energy sound wave and archery skills completely countered these bats.
"Good job, Brother Zhao!"
Yang Gan, who was fighting against the bat emperor, was overjoyed.
Bo! Bo! Bo …
Zhao Feng kept on using his mental energy sound wave and the invisible power was like waves that swept in all directions, killing batches after batches of bats.
In the dimension of his left eye, the azure abyss spun faster and faster, providing Zhao Feng with a large source of mental energy.
In just a short span of tens of breaths, Zhao Feng had killed around two hundred bats.
The bats that were scared away didn't react even when the bat king summoned them.
Everyone looked at Zhao Feng with fear in their eyes.
Even the remaining three bat kings looked warily at Zhao Feng, not daring to come close.
"Everyone cover me! We're going to wash the bat cave with blood!"
Zhao Feng's voice was filled with killing intent, which made the nearby people's hearts go cold, but they were also filled with battle intent.
