Alien Science Cultivation

Chapter 21 Killing the Bat Monster

"Brother, you're amazing! If this works, we'll reach the edge of the Dark Forest entrance safely!" the black-robed captain exclaimed in praise, his voice echoing across the vast wilderness, a hint of undisguised delight. Then, everyone gathered a large number of leaves and stuffed them into their own Qiankun bags. While the bull was munching on them, they climbed onto its neck and back. They tossed leaves forward while checking their directions on the map, their movements both tense and methodical. The bull seemed like a bottomless pit, charging relentlessly for leaves. Its powerful hooves pounded the ground like sledgehammers, sending up clouds of dust. Its wheezing was like muffled thunder, and its large nostrils exhaled a scorching breath. After running for a whole day and night, they finally collapsed on the ground, exhausted, to rest! They kept a distance from any small beasts they encountered along the way. Seeing the bull from afar, the smaller animals fled in terror, trembling and terrified. When encountering larger beasts, they controlled the bull to circumvent them, significantly increasing their safety. They even took turns resting, marching day and night until the Bull collapsed from exhaustion! A journey that would have taken several days was completed significantly earlier! They found a relatively safe spot, leaving one person to watch over the Bull while the rest rested. The next morning, after the Bull regained consciousness, they repeated the same process until they reached the edge of the Dark Forest.

Everyone gasped as they gazed at the dark forest! The eerie atmosphere grew exponentially more intense! No wonder no one wanted to enter the Dark Forest; even a glimpse from afar was terrifying! It was a land shrouded in darkness. From time to time, pairs of green eyes shone from the woods, their light like the eyes of ghosts from the abyss, revealing endless evil and mystery.

Everyone stood at the edge of the dark forest, and for a moment, no one dared to take the first step. Zhang Qiang took a deep breath and said, "Now that we've arrived, retreat is not a good idea. Since Master Ni Fang has led us here, she wouldn't let her and Senior Brother die for no reason! Let's proceed cautiously." His voice trembled slightly, but it was filled with firm determination. Everyone nodded and cautiously stepped into this mysterious and terrifying forest.

As soon as we entered the forest, a thick fog enveloped us, drastically reducing our visibility. The fog was as thick as insoluble ink, cold and damp, clinging to our skin with an unpleasant stickiness. Everyone clung to each other, afraid to get separated. Suddenly, a chilling wind blew by, carrying a wisp of chill. It seemed to blow from the depths of hell, carrying the breath of death, sending chills down our spines.

"Everyone be careful, this wind is very strange." The black-robed captain said vigilantly, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, his muscles tense, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.

Before he could finish his words, a shrill scream rang out from the distance, a sound that was particularly terrifying in the silent forest. The cry was like the agony of a cursed soul, causing everyone's heartbeats to accelerate and their nerves to tense to the extreme.

Ni Fang unsheathed her magic weapon, and a ray of light illuminated the surroundings. Not far away, she saw several unknown animal bones lying on the ground. Some were broken, others incomplete, and a foul odor emanated from them. Around them were scattered footprints and bloodstains, dried and black, as if telling of the fierce battle that had taken place.

"This... what on earth is going on? Master, did you give me the wrong map? This is a tomb of death..." The eldest brother said in a trembling voice, his forehead covered with cold sweat and his face was as pale as paper.

At that moment, a massive black bat swooped past overhead, stirring up a gust of wind. Its outstretched wings formed a massive black curtain, obscuring the sky and the sun. Zhang Qiang looked up and saw the bat's eyes flashing an eerie red light, like a burning will-o'-the-wisp, terrifying.

"Not good, the bat is coming towards us." Zhang Qiang had just finished speaking when the bat swooped down like a black lightning and pounced towards them. In an instant, everyone's expression froze and they reacted quickly.

Ni Fang formed hand seals and chanted something. A brilliant green sword shot forth from her, hurtling towards the bat. The blade shimmered like a meteor piercing the darkness. The eldest brother wielded the Qingfeng Sword, its blade radiating a vibrant green light, significantly greener than when Ni Fang had activated it, and its power was a new level. Each swing brought a whirring sound, attempting to sever the bat's wings.

The black-robed captain flashed, appearing like a ghost beside the bat. He swung the long whip in his hand, the tip of the whip whistling sharply as it struck the bat's body. The whip was like a snake emerging from its lair, incredibly swift and powerful. It immediately caused the bat to stagger from side to side in pain!

The eldest brother seized the opportunity and suddenly leaped up from the ground. His posture was nimble, like a cheetah pouncing on its prey. The Qingfeng Sword aimed directly at the bat's head! The moment the Qingfeng Sword struck the bat, sparks flashed from the tip of the sword, quickly spreading to the blade and then towards the eldest brother. The sudden sparking movement startled everyone. The black-robed captain whipped his whip at the Qingfeng Sword, intending to separate the eldest brother from the Qingfeng Sword! However, he underestimated the eldest brother's persistence. With such a rare opportunity, it was impossible for him to give up. The eldest brother twisted the sword, and the long whip broke with a clang. Sparks instantly surrounded the eldest brother, and the Qingfeng Sword pierced the bat's head! Man and beast fell heavily to the ground! The panicked group was noticeably slow to react! Zhang Qiang was also unable to react. The eldest brother's fighting style was absolutely reckless. Was he going to fight like this before he was even desperate? Moreover, the previous movement into the air was entirely based on brute force! This fighting style was not at all like a cultivator's fighting style! It was like a battle between beasts... Everyone quickly arrived at the spot where the bat's corpse had fallen! Ignoring the blood on the corpse, they hurriedly dragged the bat's corpse away from the eldest brother! "Haha... this guy is nothing special..." As this arrogant voice rang out, a dark figure stood up surrounded by faint blue flames! The flames danced, as if they had life. "This kid seems to be stronger. Those flames should be lit by his eyes. Can he bathe in fire? Or is he igniting fire from his weapons? I've only heard that bathing in fire ignites from the body and spreads to the weapons, greatly increasing the lethality of the weapons and the overall strength of the person. But he is igniting fire from the weapons and spreading it throughout his body. Or is he just a Jindan cultivator? This is a bit abnormal..." The black-robed captain pondered. He is a member of the Shadow Clan, also a kind of beast. He has some understanding of some of the battle phenomena of beasts from ancient books! I thought these geniuses were far away from me, but I didn't expect to see them in real life today, and it was an incredible sight. It seems that it is feasible for Old Man Qingshan to ask them to come here. With this kid's ability and the power of the Qingfeng Sword, there are really few monsters he encounters along the way that can withstand him. This little girl is probably the nemesis of this kid when he transforms into a beast and loses his mind.
