High up in the sky, Lin Xuan flew through the clouds at high speed.
As he moved forward, he scanned the undulating mountains below him.
After a while, Lin Xuan suddenly stopped and descended.
"This should be the canyon!"
At this moment, below him was a huge canyon hidden in the clouds. It was about fifty miles wide and a hundred miles long.
Looking from above, the canyon was shrouded in clouds and fog. Ancient trees grew everywhere, and strange rocks intersected with each other. There were poisonous insects and beasts roaming about. It was clearly a dangerous place where no one would go.
Lin Xuan was bold and daring. He directly descended into the canyon and flew towards the end.
Along the way, he encountered some powerful beasts that wanted to eat him. However, he casually slapped them into pieces.
Gradually, Lin Xuan flew to the end of the canyon and saw a dark cave.
"Wang Laosan didn't lie. This should be the Blood Bat Cave."
The cave was about three meters high. There were traces of blood Qi lingering around it. It was pitch black and bottomless. It looked like the mouth of a Ferocious Beast. It looked very strange.
On the edge of the cave, there were all kinds of flowers and vines. There was no trace of human activity.
However, if one looked carefully, one could see that there should have been a small path on the ground. Unfortunately, it had been too long and no one had used it.
Lin Xuan paused for a moment and walked into the cave.
Squeak squeak — — squeak squeak — —
His arrival immediately alarmed a huge group of beasts in the cave. Countless pairs of red eyes stared at him, ready to attack.
However, Lin Xuan was not afraid.
He released his Spiritual Energy and quickly saw the entire cave. This was a karst cave in the middle of the mountain. It was very spacious and very long. It was about seven to eight miles long.
The ground was covered with bat feces and bones of various sizes. There were humans and Ferocious Beasts.
Tens of thousands of Rank 1 Blood Winged Bats were hanging on the ceiling of the cave. Each of them was the size of a millstone. There were also more than ten Violent Blood Bat Kings. They looked very fierce.
Seeing these bats, Lin Xuan couldn't help but think of Yu Tiandi. Perhaps this cave was Yu Tiandi's birthplace.
Of his three Spirit Beasts, Green Horn and Megatron were both in the Illusory Demon Orb. Only Yu Tiandi had lost contact with him and was nowhere to be found.
However, Lin Xuan could sense that Yu Tiandi was still alive. Perhaps, he was trapped in some secret realm.
"Squeak squeak squeak …"
Seeing that a stranger like Lin Xuan had intruded, a series of warning bat cries came from the surroundings.
However, due to Lin Xuan's powerful aura, none of the Blood Bats dared to act rashly. Instead, as Lin Xuan moved forward, they all flew to avoid Lin Xuan, not daring to be within a hundred meters of him.
Lin Xuan did not care about these Level 1 and Level 2 Blood Bats. He increased his speed and flew towards the end of the cave.
After walking for about a kilometer, Lin Xuan gradually discovered something unusual.
More and more human skeletons began to appear on the ground. There were also some broken swords and sabers. There were thousands of them.
These skeletons were all eaten by insects and rats. There were obvious bite marks on the bones. However, the cause of death varied. Some were caused by swords and sabers, while others were caused by fists and claws.
Lin Xuan landed on the ground and picked up a skull to take a look. He couldn't help but frown.
"The time of death should be between five to ten years. Didn't the Blood Bat Palace seal the mountain gate? Which force do these bodies belong to? "
"Eh? There are also children's bodies! "
Lin Xuan's eyes moved. He looked at a skeleton on the ground. It was obviously the skeleton of a child. Someone had crushed his neck to death.
At that moment, Lin Xuan had a bad feeling.
He increased his speed and flew towards the end of the cave.
Along the way, there were more and more skeletons on the ground. However, there were very few complete skeletons. They were all incomplete and had obvious bite marks from ferocious beasts.
Furthermore, from the tattered clothes on the ground, these people did not have a high status. Many of them were not even Martial Artists. They were just ordinary mortals.
"What happened to the Blood Bat Palace! Could it be the work of the remaining forces of the Dragon Soul Hall? "
Lin Xuan frowned. He could not help but worry about Shen Yueling.
After traveling for about eight miles, he finally arrived at the end of the cave. It was a spacious land with a platform in the middle. There was a teleportation formation with dim spirit patterns on the platform.
To Lin Xuan's surprise, the skeletons around the platform were piled up like mountains. They were stacked on top of each other, showing signs of a huge battle.
Lin Xuan leaped onto the platform. His eyes flickered as he looked at the teleportation formation.
If he was not wrong, this teleportation formation should lead to the mystic realm of the Blood Bat Palace.
He was sure that something big had happened to the Blood Bat Palace.
To Lin Xuan's relief, the teleportation formation was not damaged. It had only exhausted its Primordial Qi.
He took out a thousand mid-grade Primordial Stones and threw them into the Primordial Qi Pool of the teleportation formation. With a flash of purple light, the teleportation formation resumed its normal operation.
Lin Xuan hesitated for a moment before activating his True Martial Golden Body. A blinding golden light appeared around him. At the same time, he connected to the Dragon-Sealing Pagoda in the Illusory Demon Orb and was ready to make a move.
He did not know what would happen on the other side of the teleportation formation. He had to be prepared.
In the next moment, he stepped into the teleportation formation without any hesitation.
Following a flash of purple light, his figure disappeared.
This teleportation took a long time. After four to five minutes of dizziness, Lin Xuan finally opened his eyes.
He was on full alert. He held the Sky Shaking Rod in his hand and scanned his surroundings coldly.
Gradually, a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes.
This was a boundless land. It was almost impossible to see the end. The land was undulating. There were mountains, plains, villages, and cities. There were even a few small suns in the sky that emitted a fiery red light.
This might have been a relatively complete small world, even more complete than the Illusory Demon Orb.
But now, it was a dim yellow. The rivers had dried up, the mountains had collapsed, and the plains were cracked. There was no greenery in the entire world. There was no sign of life. There was no trace of Primordial Qi in the air either. Even the air was very thin.
This was a dead world.
Lin Xuan's expression was very grave. It would be difficult for anyone to survive in such a world. He could not help but worry about Shen Yueling's safety.
He flew into the air and headed deep into the small world.
This small world was estimated to be more than a thousand miles in radius. For an ordinary person, it would take many days or even months to go around it.
But for Lin Xuan, it only took a few minutes.
He quickly searched the entire small world and found the mountain gate of the Blood Bat Palace. It was on a tall mountain in the center of the small world. There was a pile of ruins of a palace.
A huge bronze plaque was on the ground. It was engraved with the words "Blood Bat Palace" in pure gold.
However, Lin Xuan still did not see a single living thing. He only saw a few scattered corpses.
He descended from the sky and stood on the cornice of one of the halls of the Blood Bat Palace. His eagle-like eyes scanned the dilapidated buildings, trying to find some clues.
Whoosh —
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed from the ruins a hundred meters away and disappeared in a flash.
"Eh!"
Lin Xuan's eyes lit up. He immediately chased after it. His mental power locked onto the black shadow.
The black shadow was extremely fast. It was wrapped in a layer of black fog that blocked out mental power detection. Lin Xuan could not see its background clearly.
The black shadow shuttled through the ruins for a while. Finally, it burrowed into a dry well in the depths of the Blood Bat Palace and disappeared.
Lin Xuan landed beside the well and tried to use his mental power. However, he could only go less than ten meters down before it was blocked by layers of fog.
The fog was filled with death Qi and demonic Qi. It was very strange.
Lin Xuan could vaguely feel that there was something dangerous hidden in the well.
However, he had finally found a living thing. If he wanted to find out what had happened to the Blood Bat Palace, he had to go down and take a look.
His expression hardened as he leaped into the well.
Just as he descended for more than twenty meters, a glaring cold light suddenly lit up in front of him. An extremely sharp Sword Qi shot out from the side, aiming for his throat.
Lin Xuan was not afraid. He swung his fist to meet the Sword Qi.
Boom!
There was an explosion!
The long sword was shattered into pieces, and a figure let out a shrill scream as he was sent flying backwards.
Lin Xuan landed on both feet and scanned his surroundings vigilantly.
This was a huge space in the belly of a mountain. The dome was inlaid with countless luminous pearls, illuminating the space as bright as day.
At this moment, Lin Xuan was surprised to find that he had been surrounded. The people surrounding him were a group of martial artists in ragged clothes. There were about fifteen or sixteen of them. They looked like a group of beggars. All of them stared at him with eyes like hungry wolves.
"Gagagaga! Another one has come to die! Our luck is not bad! Looks like we can live for a while longer! "
"Oh? This kid's strength is not bad! Everyone, be careful! "
"Hurry up and seal the exit! Don't let him escape. Otherwise, that demon will take advantage of him! "
This group of beggar-like martial artists clamored as if they were pleasantly surprised to find Lin Xuan, the intruder.
When Lin Xuan saw this, he instantly understood that this was clearly a trap.
As for the black figure that lured him in, it was a half-meter long black lynx. At this moment, it was lying on top of a martial artist's head, looking at him with a ferocious gaze.
"Who are you people?" Lin Xuan asked coldly.
The leader of the elders snorted. "Hmph! Since you're here, don't you know who the owner of this place is? Kid, consider yourself unlucky. Leave your life behind! "
"People from the Blood Bat Palace? How did you end up in this situation? "Lin Xuan asked curiously.
"Great Elder, don't waste time with him. Hurry up and kill this kid. Find the essence stones and elixirs. Everyone needs to replenish their essence energy!"
"That's right! Everyone, attack together and kill him! "
The surrounding people urged impatiently.
"Alright! Do it! "
