Chapter Seventy-Two: The Footsteps of the Grim Reaper

And now, the scene is almost the same as back then, and this dark memory of Xu Yunhe has once again awakened.

"You don't want to be like this, if we can get here, we will definitely be able to get out!" I ......" Duanmu Feixue comforted Xu Yunhe very clumsily, she has always been cold as frost on weekdays, and she has a noble status in the family, when has she done such a coaxing thing, especially Xu Yunhe's current memory is so deep, she said a few words with great effort, and Duanmu Feixue was out of words.

"It's useless, Master is gone, we can't save ......" Xu Yunhe ignored Duanmu Feixue's words, buried his head in his arm like a machine, and muttered the same passage.

"Your master is gone, isn't there still me? Now those bats haven't appeared yet, and it's just you thinking about yourself here, scaring yourself, you ...... How is this happening?" Looking at Xu Yunhe's fearful and desperate appearance, Duanmu Feixue's heart was heartbroken and angry, seeing that Xu Yunhe didn't listen to what she said at all, she couldn't wait to slam Xu Yunhe on the ground again, and the stones on the ground to make him sober up.

"They're coming! they're coming!" Before Duanmu Feixue could turn this impulse into action, Xu Yunhe suddenly raised his head, and shouted in the dark cave behind Duanmu Feixue with a pair of godless eyes, his voice was very strange, and there was a sense of relief.

Duanmu Feixue turned suddenly, only to find that there was nothing to be seen in the cave, except for darkness. She listened intently and uneasily, but there was not even a sound, and it was very quiet.

Duanmu Feixue turned around angrily: "You are still in the mood to joke at this time, I ......"

Duanmu Feixue didn't finish a word, and suddenly, she saw a black glimpse from Xu Yunhe's pupils.

In an instant, Duanmu Feixue's delicate body stiffened.

"Here they are, they're finally here......"

Duanmu Feixue stiffened, suddenly bent down, picked up Xu Yunhe, who was still sitting on the ground and seemed to be smiling, grabbed the belt around his waist with one hand, and ran quickly towards the cave in front of him. The whole action is like flowing water, revealing the extraordinary strength of the Martial King.

But after only running out less than ten meters, Duanmu Feixue's fiery red figure had to stop.

"Xu Yunhe, what's the matter...... What should I do?" Duanmu Feixue's voice trembled a little.

"Here they are, they're finally here......" Xu Yunhe muttered.

Duanmu Feixue's pretty face was a little pale, she put Xu Yunhe behind her, her hands were spread, her back was against the rock wall on one side, her eyes flickered and looked at the darkness in front of her, and suddenly looked at the back.

In the darkness, there were bright lights of stars.

In the dead silence of the cave, there were gradually more noisy subtle noises. I don't know why, Duanmu Feixue's eyesight has become surprisingly good at this time, although there is no strong light source in the cave, she can clearly see many things hidden in the dark in the front and back directions.

Although, she didn't like her super eyesight at all at this time.

Because what she saw was so disgusting and horrible.

In the front and back directions, almost a dozen meters away, there were some small creatures that were not very large. Their bodies were shining brightly, green and faint, their appearance, Duanmu Feixue had seen before, and the thing that died in the palm of Xu Yunhe's hand was exactly the same shape.

This is a bat, one of those bat swarms predicted by Xu Yunhe. Now, they're finally here.

"They're ...... How can it still shine?" I have to say that the girl's thinking is really incredible, at this time, Duanmu Feixue still has such a strong curiosity.

"It's the phosphorescent light left behind by the dead bodies, which they eat and get on the bats. In a few days, our phosphorescence will be like them......" Xu Yunhe, who didn't expect it behind him, still gave an answer. It's just that the last sentence really made Duanmu Feixue so angry that the roots of his teeth itched.

"I don't believe it, I, Duanmu Feixue, will die at the hands of this group of stinky bats!" Just seeing the appearance of this group of bats, Duanmu Feixue already felt very disgusting. If you really get eaten by these bats, oh, don't even think about it!

"Isn't it just a group of stinky bats, look at how I clean them up!" Xu Yunhe's decadence behind him made Duanmu Feixue very depressed, and the ignorant were fearless, looking at these dirty creatures in front of her, she was determined to use the cleanest and neatest means to teach these bats a good lesson, so that the man behind him could see that he was not weak at all!

The impulse immediately turned into action, Duanmu Feixue stretched out his hands forward flatly, twisted his five fingers lightly, and the air suddenly trembled.

The bats, which are surrounded from the front and back directions, seem to sense the signs of danger. The strange cries of "squeak" came and went.

The time didn't last long, Duanmu Feixue moved quickly, and his wrist shook gracefully to both sides, and there seemed to be nothing in the air, but it was very abrupt, and there was a "woo" sound of breaking the wind.

Almost instantly, in the group of bats on both sides, it suddenly seemed like a frying pan, and countless bats flew around, with blood light, sprinkled in the air, one after another.

Riots, disorder. The bats, who were originally only a dozen meters away from the position of the two, sounded extremely miserable with their "squeak" screams. By the time the commotion had subsided, the bats on both sides had retreated five or six meters back at the same time, leaving behind the stinking blood and many dead bats. The blood has frozen, some bats have also frozen, only a few of them, still dying hopelessly, one wing is frozen in the blood on the ground, the other wing has also been broken, but it is still struggling desperately, "squeak" scream, it sounds very sad.

"What's the matter, these ice needles of mine, not bad, right? This time, at least three or four thousand have been killed, these stinky bats are cowards like you will be scared like this, as long as you kill some of them, let them know who is more powerful, where do they dare to do evil?" These words, Duanmu Feixue said to Xu Yunhe behind him.

Xu Yunhe didn't say anything, but the two of them were very close, and Duanmu Feixue clearly felt that Xu Yunhe's body suddenly trembled.

Duanmu Feixue was a little strange, and was about to turn his head to see what was wrong with Xu Yunhe, when suddenly the bats in front and behind, who had already withdrawn, began to move forward again.

Duanmu Feixue's pretty face turned white in an instant.

The light in the cave is too weak. Duanmu Feixue could vaguely feel the bats on both sides moving forward, but he couldn't see clearly the appearance of the bats in the front row.

It's closer, it's getting closer. Five meters away from Duanmu Feixue, the bats finally stopped.

At this time, Duanmu Feixue's super eyesight played a role again. This time, she finally saw what the bats really looked like.

The front, and the back, in both directions, were crowded with bats. At the bottom, there is a neatly arranged row of bats, with only a rat's head exposed, and two rows of sharp teeth in their mouths.

At the top of their row were more bats that looked exactly like them. The previous row is stepped on top of the next row, layer upon layer, densely packed from top to bottom, basically filling the space from the bottom of the hole to the top of the cave that is more than two meters high. If it weren't for the faint green light on their bodies, which were still flickering, the entire cavern would have been almost dark.

"What should I do?" Duanmu Feixue asked as he bit his lower lip.

Xu Yunhe behind him didn't move, and even the muttering from before was gone.

Without Xu Yunhe's help, Duanmu Feixue's silver teeth were bitten, his pretty face was covered with frost, and he took a step forward, and a pair of jade hands drew a very strange symbol in front of him.

The symbol was quickly drawn, and at the moment of completion, a slowly circulating circular vortex had formed in mid-air in front of Duanmu Feixue.

The whirlpool was transparent and glowed with a faint green light, and from a distance, it looked like a piece of jade being polished if it weren't for the slowly rotating whirlpool above that was too obvious.

The squeaky bats suddenly fell silent.

Duanmu Feixue held this whirlpool in his hand, his face was solemn, and suddenly he said coquettishly: "Go!"

With a sound, the whirlpool in his hand suddenly expanded outward, and two turquoise circles of light flew out in the direction of the two groups of bats in front and behind. A standard circle, surrounded by a green light, looks very warm and beautiful.

The two apertures that are so beautiful, resembling beautiful jade, are not beautiful at all.

The aperture flew around and rushed towards the two groups of bats in front and behind, and the bats in the front row didn't have time to react at all, they had already been hit by this aperture of light, and a terrible vortex suddenly appeared in the dark bat group, centered on the middle point, and the bats on the periphery were swept into the vortex, and then were thrown out of the center of the vortex mercilessly. It's just that after being thrown out, there is no longer half of the breath of life, and even the body is no longer complete, the remains of the severed limbs, blood splashed everywhere, and some even splashed to the front, but less than half a foot away from the whirlpool in Duanmu Feixue's hand, it encountered an invisible obstacle and fell to the ground, and after a short period of time, a thick layer accumulated on the ground.

The smell of fish is getting stronger and stronger, the smell of blood is tangy, the air has become disgusting, Duanmu Feixue's pretty face is still the same, in the phoenix's eyes, the cold light is clear, and he looks at the whirlpool in his hand motionlessly, it is still slowly turning.

Gradually, the whirlpools on both sides disappeared. There were no more bats screaming, and the last bloody bat fell in front of Duanmu Feixue, fell gently, and fell to the ground, making a "pop" sound in the pool of blood that had accumulated into a puddle of blood, and blood splashed.

The bats on both sides were repelled by another three or four meters. However, they still did not turn around and leave as Duanmu Feixue expected.

The vacancy that appeared was filled by the bats behind. The bat swarm that was restored to its entirety, like an ancient chariot, ignored the corpses of so many of its kind on the ground, and the deep layer of blood began to move slowly forward.

The speed is very slow, but it adds to the suffocating oppression.

Listening to the sound of blood flowing on the ground, Duanmu Feixue's eyes became even colder.

"Go!"

Two more circles of light, with a more powerful momentum, flew towards the group of bats that were slowly moving on both sides.

Another bloody strangulation. Flesh and blood flew and screamed, and once again, the advancing bat chariot had to retreat, but after retreating some distance, the two death vortex finally disappeared with all their strength.

This time, they retreated only two meters.

The crippled bat colony is once again filled by more of the same kind in the back. Soon, they were repaired again, and slowly, they began to move forward.

Duanmu Feixue's eyes remained fixed on the whirlpool in her hand, and when the bats approached again, she let out another coquettish cry, and the two death vortex sent out again.

So, another bloody strangulation. Once again, tragedy unfolded.

In this way, bats and Duanmu Feixue, both sides of the sworn enemy, have their own stubbornness, stubbornly staging this same scene in turn.

How many times did it repeat it? Even Duanmu Feixue can't remember. Later, the debris on the ground accumulated more than a meter high, and there was still a stinking blood rippling below, and a thin layer of ice formed on the surface, but it was still difficult to cover up, and the blood flow below was getting deeper and deeper.

Looking at Duanmu Feixue's side, the whirlpool in her hand has shrunk by almost half, leaving only the palm-sized one, which is still in the palms of her hands.

The two hands trembled uncontrollably. Duanmu Feixue's face has long been unable to see the slightest trace of blood.

Gasping slightly, a layer of fine beads of sweat oozed from Duanmu Feixue's smooth forehead.

The air outside was dripping into ice, and Duanmu Feixue, who was so close, was still sweating?

The bats on both sides approached again. Unlike Duanmu Feixue's weakness, they have endless backup, except that they have to reduce the area of the front due to the backlog of corpses in the cave, but they have no intention of retreating.

Duanmu Feixue slowly lowered his head, and under his feet, a layer of blood-red water had accumulated. Just in front of him, he almost rose to his waist, but he was blocked by an invisible restraint, trapping himself, as well as Xu Yunhe, who was silent behind him, in a semicircle.

Here it is again, this time, and for the last time, right?

Duanmu Feixue raised his head to look at the pitifully small whirlpool in his palm, and smiled bitterly.

The two strands of green silk on the sideburns had been soaked with sweat, and they were only tightly attached to Duanmu Feixue's snow-white cheeks. The weak Duanmu Feixue has lost the cold appearance of the iceberg beauty before at this time, but it looks a little softer.

The weak Duanmu Feixue slowly raised his head, and the bats on both sides had approached a distance of two meters. She could even see the cold light reflected by the two rows of sharp teeth in the mouths of the bats in the front row.

This time, I, and the inexplicable man behind me, are going to die at the hands of this group of bats, right? I didn't expect that I, Duanmu Feixue, who has always been unwilling to live behind anyone, would actually be buried in the mouths of these filthy and disgusting bats in this gloomy cave with such an inexplicable man. Come to think of it, this fate is really amazing!

Master, you said that in this life, only a man with an innate fire spirit body can save my life. But I have already saved his life twice, why did he refuse to save me this last time?

The bats got too close, and a "whoosh" sound interrupted Duanmu Feixue's desperate reverie.

There was a sudden condensation in his weak eyes, and the whirlpool in Duanmu Feixue's hand was directly divided into two halves, and with the last unwillingness, and the last killing intent, he rushed towards the bat swarm on both sides.

The strangulation was staged again, and the advancing swarm of bats had to retreat again.

With this final blow, Duanmu Feixue let out a low groan, his knees weakened, and he fell to his knees in an instant.

The half-human-high layer of flesh and blood in front of him trembled, but it was still stable and did not overflow to the front.

With his two hands pressed on the ground, Duanmu Feixue turned around, his weak and godless eyes turned behind him, and fell on Xu Yunhe, who was sitting under the rock wall with his knees clasped and clenched, and he couldn't move away anymore.

You...... Is it my fate, and if so, why, do you belong to someone else?

If not, why, the two of us, are we dying here together?

In my life, I've never pretended to be a man for anything. Master said that I was too indifferent, and although my martial arts advanced quickly, I could not reach the highest realm. It's just that how can Master understand that in this world, which man can be worthy of my blue eyes?

A man like you, his status is not high, his martial arts are poor, and he doesn't have any talent, in the past, I wouldn't even look at you. But Master said, in this life, only you can save me. You're my destiny, aren't you?

If that's the case, why don't you come to save me? Both of us are going to die here, in the mouths of these stinky bats!

Duanmu Feixue looked at Xu Yunhe stupidly, his face was buried deep in his arms, curled into a ball, like that, very helpless, very pitiful.

If fate is for the two of us to die here together, then I will admit it. At least, for now, it's just the two of us, just the two of us......

The flow of flesh and blood behind him suddenly shook violently, rolling wave after wave, and it seemed that it was about to break through that invisible shackle and flow to Duanmu Feixue and Xu Yunhe.

Duanmu Feixue turned around, and the jade hand pressed lightly, and the turbulence of the violent shock instantly regained calm.

In the blink of an eye, a meter in front of him, a swarm of bats has arrived.

Sharp teeth, glittering with cold light. A faint green light, dotted with stars. "Squeak" chirps, one after another.

Duanmu Feixue got up slowly, her delicate body trembled slightly, but her face was solemn, and her hands were slowly raised to her chest.
