Chapter 1887 A Ray of Light
After cleaning up the bodies of the green-winged bats, Qingyang was about to enter the Drunken Immortal Gourd when he suddenly heard a buzzing sound from afar. Qingyang's face suddenly changed color because the sound was exactly the same as the sound of the green-winged bats when they attacked before, but the momentum was even greater. It was clear that there were more green-winged bats this time. With Qingyang's current situation, he might not be able to defeat even the dozens of them before, let alone a larger group. With more people, there must be higher-level ones. As the saying goes, a good man will not suffer a loss in front of him. This time, Qingyang did not hesitate at all and flashed into the Drunken Immortal Gourd.
However, Qingyang also left a trace of his divine consciousness outside. He wanted to see where the green-winged bats got the confidence to counterattack this time. This sight immediately scared Qingyang because the number of green-winged bats this time was too large. Not long after, the green-winged bats came to the place where they had fought with Qingyang before, densely covering the entire sky. A rough count showed that there were more than a thousand of them.
And just as Qingyang expected before, this group of green-winged bats is not only large in number, but also high in level. About 90% of them are at the Nascent Soul Perfection stage, and the other 10% are all at the Spiritualization stage, with many at the early, middle, and even late stages. What's more, at the end of the team, there is one with a breath that is obviously higher than those Spiritualization green-winged bats. Although Qingyang has never seen what a higher level than the Spiritualization stage looks like, he can guess without guessing that it is probably at the Refining Void level.
Not to mention that Qingyang is now at the end of his strength, even in Qingyang's heyday, he would have had to flee if he encountered such a group of green-winged bats. Seeing this, Qingyang did not dare to have any more luck and quickly retracted that trace of divine consciousness to avoid being discovered by the green-winged bats outside.
The green-winged bats that had fought with Qingyang before were originally the vanguard of this group of green-winged bats. Because the void insect beasts were brutal and aggressive, they started the battle without hesitation when they met Qingyang. As a result, they found that they had suffered a great loss in the end. Qingyang was not as weak as they thought, so the green-winged bats chose to retreat. They happened to meet the large army coming from behind. After a conversation, they brought the large army to seek revenge.
A large group of green-winged bats came to the previous battle site in a mighty manner, but found that they had come to nothing. Not only did Qingyang disappear long ago, but the bodies of the two green-winged bats left behind were also gone. The green-winged bats were naturally unwilling to accept this, so they left a few to wait in place, and the other soldiers split into several groups to search around.
Qingyang discovered the changes outside the Drunken Immortal Gourd, but he did not dare to make any unusual movements, because among the green-winged bats left outside, there was the one at the level of Refining Void, which Qingyang could not afford to provoke. He even separated a trace of his divine consciousness to explore the situation outside, and was almost discovered by the other party. Qingyang was so scared that he quickly retracted his divine consciousness and never dared to peek at the situation outside again.
Since Qingyang was hiding in the Drunken Immortal Gourd, the green-winged bats certainly could not find him. The several groups of green-winged bats that were separated quickly came back to report. Although the leading green-winged bat was suspicious, he had no way to vent his anger on the spot before leaving with the group of green-winged bats.
Qingyang in the Drunken Immortal Gourd did not know the situation outside. He had been in the space of the Drunken Immortal Gourd for seven or eight days. When his injuries were completely healed, he carefully separated a trace of his divine consciousness to observe the situation outside. After confirming that the group of green-winged bats had completely left and it was completely safe outside, he flashed out of the Drunken Immortal Gourd.
After this battle, Qingyang knew that in addition to the void storm and space turbulence, there were also many void insects and beasts in the endless void. He was lucky not to encounter them before, but he might not be so lucky in the future. If he ran into a stronger void insect and beast, he would not even have the chance to escape or hide in the Drunken Immortal Gourd. He had to be doubly careful to avoid losing his life.
Although there was no trouble with the green-winged bat, Qingyang did not relax, because he still faced a huge difficulty, which was the problem of where to go. There was no reference in the endless void, and he could not tell the direction at all. He didn't know where he was going, and he couldn't tell the east, west, south, north, up and down. He couldn't even remember the way he came. If he chose the wrong direction and took the way he came as the place he was going, these thirty years of travel time would be wasted.
There was no other way, so he could only leave his fate to luck. He took out the three ancient coins again and threw them into the air. He frowned and counted with his fingers, and then flew in a direction. At this time, Qingyang had no confidence in his heart. He didn't know whether his choice was right or not, nor did he know how long such days would last. It was very likely that he would be on the road all his life, and he would not find a place to stay until his lifespan was exhausted. But there was no way out if he waited. What else could he do if he didn't do this?
Fortunately, Qingyang had lived such a life for thirty years. He had already adapted to it, and his mentality was extremely calm. He would not have any problems or collapse because of this matter in a short time.
Qingyang went forward all the way, and in a blink of an eye, a few days had passed. On this day, while flying, a ray of light suddenly flashed from the side. The light was very dim, so dim that it could be almost ignored, but it was still captured by Qingyang. After all, he was a high-level cultivator, and his perception ability in all aspects was still very strong. Some subtle changes were difficult to escape his perception and insight. In addition, he had been flying in endless darkness for a long time, and was more sensitive to the sudden appearance of light than usual.
The appearance of light means danger, but it also represents opportunity. Opportunity and danger coexist. It depends on whether you dare to give it a try. For Qingyang now, any opportunity must be seized, even if it means facing great danger, so he hurriedly stopped.
Qingyang confirmed the direction and carefully looked for the source of the light. He didn't know whether it was because of the different angles or the light was just a flash and disappeared afterwards. Qingyang spent half an hour looking for it, and his eyes were sore, but he didn't find the source of the light. Qingyang even doubted whether he had an illusion because of the long journey before, and the light never appeared at all. Thinking carefully, it should be impossible. He is already a high-level cultivator with a perfect Nascent Soul. How could such a low-level mistake occur? It is probably because the distance is too far.
This did not pose a problem for Qingyang. Since it was too far away, he would just move closer. As long as the direction was right, it would be easier to find if he was closer. Qingyang no longer hesitated and quickly turned around to fly in the direction where the light had appeared. As for whether there was any danger ahead, Qingyang did not think about it too much for the time being. He would just respond as he saw fit.
