Along the way, Zeng Shushu also knew that Mu Qingxiao and Lu XueQi didn't seem to like to interact with others, so when he introduced them, he only briefly mentioned them.
After some conversation, Fa Xiang and the others found out that Zhang Xiaofan and the others were trapped in the bat swarm last night and only got out a few minutes ago. They were actually not injured, which made them admire them a little.
Li Xun snorted coldly, the disdain in his eyes was very obvious. They also saw the bat swarm yesterday. Even if he encountered it, he could only escape awkwardly. How could this group of Qing Yun Men escape? They must be boasting.
Yan Hong also didn't speak, but her expression was already shown on her face. Obviously, she didn't believe what they said.
Fa Xiang was a monk, so he didn't care so much. He smiled and said, "This time, the elders of our three sects wanted the younger generation to gain some experience in the Kongsang Mountain. Now that everyone is here, but the Qing Yun Men have come a long way. Why don't we rest for a day and go to the Ancient Bat Cave to investigate tomorrow morning?"
Without waiting for Zhang Xiaofan and the others to speak, Mu Qingxiao said in a flat tone, "No need to wait, let's set off."
Since they had already come to the Kongsang Mountain, he naturally didn't want to wait. The Tomes of Arcane were in front of him, and they were not the only ones who came to the Kongsang Mountain.
Li Xun glanced at Mu Qingxiao and his gaze fell on the ethereal Lu XueQi. Although her expression was cold, there was a sense of superiority in her awe-inspiring aura. He was a little stunned for a moment, as he had never seen such a stunning beauty before.
Fa Xiang was stunned, but he saw that Zhang Xiaofan and the others tacitly agreed. He looked at Mu Qingxiao in surprise.
The young man in front of him didn't look special except for his handsome appearance. He didn't expect that the Qing Yun Men would treat him as their leader. A person couldn't be judged by his appearance, just as the sea couldn't be measured with a pint pot.
Retracting his gaze, Fa Xiang said, "In that case, let's set off."
Walking on Kongsang Mountain, Zhang Xiaofan and the others were vigilant. Mu Qingxiao and Lu XueQi walked side by side as if they were strolling in the back garden. They didn't take it to heart at all.
As they walked and talked, they also learned from Fa Xiang that the bats in the 'Ancient Bat Cave' of the Kongsang Mountain were mutants raised by the Devil Cult. They were ferocious, cruel, and bloodthirsty. They were the accomplices of the Devil Cult.
Eight hundred years ago, after the Devil Sect's stronghold was destroyed, there were still a few bats left. After a long time, they actually multiplied and flourished, until today's huge scale. Every time they hunted, they would cover the sky and the sun, making the area within a radius of five hundred miles desolate.
However, these bats seemed to be afraid of sunlight, so they were only active at night. During the day, they lived in the Ten Thousand Bat Cave. Last night, Zhang Xiaofan and the others happened to encounter them. If they had gone up the mountain during the day, it wouldn't have been as dangerous as last night.
Hearing this, Mu Qingxiao raised his sword-like eyebrows and said, "Those beasts are all in the Ancient Bat Cave. How can we go in and investigate?"
Although the bats were not dangerous to him, he had to consider Lu XueQi. This girl was obviously afraid of creatures like bats. Yesterday, she was so scared that her body went limp. Moreover, he didn't want to expose too much of his cultivation.
Fa Xiang hesitated for a moment. The Qing Yun Men obviously followed Mu Qingxiao's lead, so he said, "Senior Brother Mu, according to my observations these days, these beasts only hang upside down on the top of the cave during the day. They don't move at all. Maybe we can give it a try."
Hearing that they would have to face the bats later, Lu XueQi's pale face became even paler. Mu Qingxiao put his left hand on her waist quietly and patted her gently to comfort her.
Zeng Shushu was speechless, but Zhang Xiaofan couldn't help but say, "Senior Brother Fa Xiang, you are also not confident. What if those bats see us enter the cave and pounce on us? What should we do then?"
Fa Xiang looked at Zhang Xiaofan, his eyes seemed to have a faint glimmer of light, but his expression was still gentle and said,
"Exactly. I am also not a hundred percent confident. But since the sect has ordered us to do it, there is no harm in giving it a try. If it doesn't work, we will retreat and think of another way. Today, me, Junior Brother Fa Shan and the two benefactors from FenXiang Valley wanted to go in and investigate. We didn't expect to meet all of you coincidentally. This is good too.
"Hmph!"
Li Xun who was walking on the left snorted. Zhang Xiaofan and the rest walked over, but Li Xun was not afraid at all. Only when he looked at Lu XueQi's eyes did his expression change slightly.
Mu Qingxiao's sword-like eyebrows twitched. A Foundation Establishment Level Seven and yet he was here to play to the gallery. With this kind of temperament, how could he become a genius disciple of FenXiang Valley? What a joke.
When they arrived at the central area of Kongsang Mountain, it was still barren. Sand and rocks covered the ground. On such a huge mountain, there was not even the sound of ordinary birds chirping. It seemed that they had already become the bats' snack, or they had already migrated from this place.
After half an hour, Mu Qingxiao and the rest had already found the location of the Ten Thousand Bat Cave. Everyone followed Fa Xiang and carefully made their way to the entrance of the Ten Thousand Bat Cave.
This was a huge cave halfway up the mountain. It was located in the shade of the mountain and was slightly slanted downwards. Only the entrance of the cave had some light. Beyond that, it was pitch black.
Standing at a distance of five feet from the entrance of the cave, everyone could feel the chilly wind blowing from the cave. It brushed past their cheeks, chilling them to the bone. At the same time, there was a faint rustling sound, like whispers or ghosts crying. It made their hearts go numb.
Zhang Xiaofan looked at the cave a few more times. He turned back and forced a smile, saying, "If that's the case, let's go in."
Everyone was silent. Fa Xiang nodded, saying, "That's right. However, the dangers in this cave are unpredictable. Everyone should prepare their immortal weapons, just in case."
This was a matter of life and death. Everyone did not dare to be careless. They all took out their magic weapons. Only Mu Qingxiao was empty-handed. Lu XueQi held the Tianya Sword in her hand and said coldly, "Let's go."
Just as they stepped into the cave, a dense cold aura enveloped them. The ground was filled with moisture and some places were uneven. If an ordinary person was here, they would easily be trapped and die.
At this moment, everyone was already deep in the darkness. To Mu Qingxiao, it was no different from daytime. However, it was hard to say for the others.
However, they did not force themselves. Each of them drew out their Celestial Tools, which emitted rays of multicolored light. The surroundings finally lit up. Looking around, they could see lumps of things that were emitting a foul stench everywhere. Obviously, these were the secretions of the bats.
Everyone's face turned bitter. Especially the two ladies, Lu XueQi and FenXiang Valley's Yan Hong. Their brows were tightly knitted and their faces were pale.
Mu Qingxiao shook her head slightly. She held Lu XueQi's slender hand without a trace. After a while, everyone managed to calm down. As they went deeper into the cave, the rustling sound around them became louder and louder.
In such an environment, everyone's heart was pounding. No one knew what would suddenly appear. Everyone maintained 200% vigilance.
