Chapter Seventy: Blood-Colored Sky

  Today is the third watch...

  Zhang Chong also caught a whiff of that long-awaited cool air at the same moment. Just as the bat was about to pounce, Tu Ba's large hand grasped him and pulled him out of the cave.

  At this moment, Tu Bo's halberd burst out with a seven-colored glow, enveloping the entrance to the cave.

  Black bats, regardless of the pressure of the seven-colored halo, rushed forward frantically. When they encountered the seven-colored halo, dozens of them had already charged ahead and were bounced back. However, those who fearlessly charged forward were even more numerous.

  The bat's wings fluttered densely, the low hum of which caused a wave of panic in people's hearts. At this time, Tu Ba's face also changed greatly, he did not expect that there would be so many terrible bats rushing out of this cave, each of these bats should have the strength of a second-order spiritual beast, and with the endless second-order bat group, plus this fearless attack, it can be imagined how great the attacking power is.

  "One breath, two breaths, three breaths..."

  On the dense attack of bats, Fang Jie let out a mournful cry. The colorful clouds were no longer as resplendent as before, while the bloody clouds in the sky seemed to sink even lower, pressing down heavily towards the location of the cave.

  "Hurry up and get out of here!!"

  Upon hearing Tu Bo's words, Zhang Chong and the other two also thought to themselves that things were not going well. At the same time, they leapt into mid-air. Meanwhile, Tu Bo was retreating backwards in flight, his left hand formed a palm, while his right hand pointed forward with his fingers, after muttering some incantations, the halberd flew up and landed in his hands.

  The bats that had been freed, like a dark cloud, poured out of the cave and soared into the sky, giving people who saw them a thrilling sensation that made their scalps tingle.

  Just at this moment, two figures appeared in the sky as if out of thin air, standing far away at the entrance of the cave. The first person threw something towards the direction of the cave.

  It was originally the size of a square inkstone, with a glossy black body like ink. After being thrown out, it grew when it saw the wind and instantly grew dozens of times larger. The object had an arch shape, with a large hole in the middle and four small holes evenly arranged on both sides, clearly resembling the shape of a bridge.

  "What's going on? The green mountain is upside down!!" Tu Ba exclaimed in shock.

  The person who threw out the Naihe Bridge was actually the only Shura-level strongman in the Dangyang realm, Qing Shan Dao. And the one standing beside him was Ting Feng Luo. Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, these two great strongmen had arrived at this place, and Qing Shan Dao even threw out the magical treasure of the Demon Gate, Naihe Bridge.

  The bridge hole of Naihe Bridge was filled with thick black smoke, like a mountain, pressing towards the cave entrance. The black smoke it emitted was like dozens of arms, wrapping around the bats that had already flown out and throwing them back into the cave.

  The bats that had poured out like a black fog, under the heavy pressure of Naihe Bridge, also had no power to resist, and retreated little by little.

  Then, Naihe Bridge let out a loud rumble and sealed off the entrance once again.

  The blood-colored clouds in the sky quietly dispersed after leaving the Dongkou Village of Naihe Bridge, and the sky returned to its previous tranquility.

  Listening to the wind, his body was like the wind, pouncing on those flying bats that were scattered and gone. His figure was so fast that Zhang Chong and others could only see his residual image flitting about in all directions.

  Almost a hundred bats flew out of the cave, unable to throw them back into the cave. Under the wind and rain, they were killed cleanly, without a single bat able to withstand his mighty power. His figure was even more swift and agile, coming and going like the wind. In just ten breaths, he had already leapt back to Qing Shan's side, with his clothes fluttering in the wind, not a hint of exhaustion.

  His gaze also turned to Tu Bo and Zhang Chong, with a look of concern in his eyes, he asked:

  "Is everything all right with you guys?"

  The four of them all shook their heads, and then Lin Ye stood up and explained what had happened. As for what had happened in the cave, Zhang Chong supplemented it. Zhang Chong's eloquence was extremely good, and he spoke vividly and thrillingly. However, about that token, Zhang Chong glossed over it without mentioning it. In his heart, he secretly thought this should be a very good thing and had the intention of keeping it for himself.

  Qingshan Daohe and Tingfenglu fell silent after hearing this, apparently they also couldn't figure out the reason for this situation.

  In the cave below, although separated by the Naihe Bridge, you can still hear the sound of bats flapping and colliding inside the cave. This sound is even more terrifying in the quiet mountains of Yaoshou.

  "Let's talk about it later~~~" Qing Shan exerted his divine power, and suddenly a large piece of rock appeared in front of the cave, slowly rising up. At the same time, countless huge rocks flew out from all directions, completely blocking the original entrance to the cave.

  The cave is no longer in sight, and the Naihe Bridge has also disappeared. In front of everyone's eyes, a small mountain over 100 meters high appeared, with strange rocks standing tall on it, as if naturally formed.

  With a gaze at the green mountain, it didn't take much effort to blow away the dust, and on this rock, another green mountain was created. Thinking back to just now, he had used all his might, but couldn't smash open the rocks blocking the cave entrance. Zhang Chong's heart couldn't help but feel envious.

  "Asura-level strongman, this is indeed the power of a strongman. I wonder when I can possess such strength." He thought to himself.

  After Qing Shan finished all this, he sprinkled a faint golden light around him, lightly enveloping the surrounding hundred miles. Only after completing this layer of prohibition did he say:

  "We will go back and discuss it again."

  Qing Shan Dao was an inner disciple of the Demon King Sect. In this Yang Realm, before the establishment of the sect, he was already the leader of the demon clan in Yang Realm. The three major factions of the demon gate in Yang Realm, although they were usually independent, would all listen to Qing Shan Dao's dispatch at critical moments.

  They flew directly back into the Changsheng Gate at this time. He was worried and anxious, with a bloody sky, which is an extremely ominous sign, indicating that a great disaster will strike, and the consequences of this disaster will definitely exceed his imagination. And those bats that had never been seen before, unknown what kind of spiritual beast they were, were so numerous and fearless of death.

  He couldn't help but sigh at this thought, and said slowly

  "The red sky, I'm afraid it's been thousands of years since it last appeared."

  "It is indeed." Feng Xia heard this and respectfully replied, regarding the Blood Sky phenomenon, they had only read about it in the Jade Annals. To them, these were just legends. In legend, between heaven and earth, there would be a great change, countless strong ones would fall, and on the ground, blood would flow like rivers, that would be a change of an era.

  And this time, the bloody sky actually appeared in the Yang realm, clearly presenting itself before them. What it portended would happen, however, was unclear to anyone.

  "Could it be that in the time to come, we will have a final battle with the cultivators?" asked Feng Luotian.

  After hearing this, Qing Shan fell silent for a long time and didn't speak. It wasn't until much later that he slowly let out a breath and said...

  "Life is like a game of chess, with you and me competing against each other, but it's unpredictable, so how can we possibly see through each other?"

  At this point, the two were speechless again.

  After a long time, Qing Shan finally spoke up again.

  "This time in the Long Life Gate, there are quite a few good seedlings. I think these three people are extremely good. If they are cultivated well, it's estimated that within ten years, they can enter the Demon King Sect and become inner door disciples. You call them over."

  Ting Fenglu heard this and was also delighted in his heart, thinking that if there were green hills to support them from the side, their chances would be even greater. If they could really cultivate one or two inner disciples, then his status would naturally be elevated without a doubt. At this point, he didn't say much more, but instead called the three of them in.

  "You three, this time you were fearless in the face of danger and performed extremely well. The master of Listening Wind Gate just consulted with me and will give you an extra reward."

  Having heard this, Zhang Chong couldn't help but chuckle. At this time, Qing Shan was smiling at him and continued to say,

  "Zhang Chong, you've taken a great risk to obtain the Lingzhi mushroom. Your contribution is indeed the greatest. However, with your current level of cultivation, this Lingzhi mushroom is not something you can utilize. It would be better to exchange it with the Longevity Sect for a more useful spiritual object to deepen your cultivation."

  "But at that time, things were urgent, and I ate all of that ginseng." Zhang Chong said.

  Upon hearing this, Qing Shan and Ting Feng Luo were both shocked and lost their composure.
