Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 1353: Ghost Wing Bats

Chapter 1353: Chapter 1353: Ghost Wing Bats

After a long journey, Zi Yu finally arrived at the edge of the Forest of Death, and he could already feel the extre cold and dryness coming from within.

He looked up at the dim sky of the Forest of Death, then turned back to look at the bright sunshine and vibrant trees of the Dark Forest, smiling with gentle relief as he leapt into the Forest of Death.

"Zi Yu!" Qin Sisi, who was following behind him, couldn’t help but cry out.

Zi Yu turned around, saw Ye You and the White Cat on his shoulder, smiled warmly at them, bowed slightly, said "farewell," and then continued to fly deeper into the Forest of Death.

Qin Sisi asked anxiously, "What should we do? We can’t just watch him go to his death!"

Ye You replied calmly, "It’s his own choice, and he’s not going to die; he’s going to save the Dark Forest. Dying like this leaves no regrets."

Qin Sisi was taken aback, "But..."

Ye You interrupted her, "Did you see his expression just now? Calm and determined. He must have made up his mind. Let him go!"

Qin Sisi sighed helplessly, saying no more, just stared fixedly at Zi Yu’s figure as it flew farther away, becoming just a small white dot.

Suddenly, Ye You exclaid, "Sothing’s wrong!"

Saying this, he flew into the Forest of Death with Qin Sisi.

Upon entering this terrifying region, Qin Sisi was imdiately hit by howling cold winds that felt like knives cutting her skin, so she quickly released a trace of Fire Attribute Magic Power to resist the cold.

Additionally, the air was so dry that there wasn’t a drop of moisture; every breath felt like she was losing so water from her body.

"What happened?" After adapting, Qin Sisi quickly asked.

Ye You, flapping his magic wings while flying forward, explained, "The Forest of Death is not entirely devoid of life. So tenacious Demonic Beasts live inside, and they must have evolved the ability to survive there, so they won’t easily let others destroy the Forest of Death."

Qin Sisi felt a heaviness in her heart and looked up into the distance, gradually seeing Zi Yu’s figure beco clearer in her sight.

As she got closer, she discovered that Zi Yu was indeed being attacked by a group of flying Demonic Beasts. Their wings were thin and powerful, like a sheet of thin leather, with two pointed ears, a triangular nose, and two sharp fangs showing at the corners of their mouths.

"Are these... bats?" Qin Sisi asked hesitantly.

Ye You replied, "Yes, they are Ghost Wing Bats, extrely fast. Be careful."

At that mont, nearly a hundred Ghost Wing Bats surrounded Zi Yu. Although Zi Yu’s magic power was stronger than any individual Ghost Wing Bat, there were simply too many of them, attacking from all directions. Even with his strength, Zi Yu found it hard to manage.

Moreover, Zi Yu himself was ford from the essence of heaven and earth and Plant Spirit Power, which made him extrely attractive to these beasts that love to absorb the Spirit Power of other creatures. So, even though Zi Yu killed quite a few Ghost Wing Bats, not a single one retreated; they all fiercely attacked him.

Ye You took out the Sparrow Spirit Scepter, and Qin Sisi wielded the Golden Scale Snake Whip as they both joined the fray.

Initially, the Ghost Wing Bats’ attention was all on Zi Yu, allowing Qin Sisi and Ye You to attack from behind, catching them off guard and killing many.

But soon, the Ghost Wing Bats noticed these two new opponents, and their formation quickly split into two groups, one dealing with Zi Yu and the other tackling Qin Sisi and Ye You.

Zi Yu felt a lot more relieved and noticed Qin Sisi and Ye You, shouting, "Why did you co in too?"

Ye You countered with a question, "Where are you going?"

Zi Yu replied, "I want to reach the central area of the Forest of Death so that my Spiritual Power can affect as large an area as possible."

Ye You said aloud, "Alright, we’ll escort you there."

Zi Yu was slightly taken aback, feeling a bit of heroic spirit arise in his heart, and responded loudly, "Good, no need for thanks between friends. Let’s strive together."

With that, he swiftly swung a verdant green branch in his hand.

This branch was taken by the Dark Witch from a Ten-thousand-year Gingko Tree, incredibly hard and rich in Spiritual Power, making it the perfect weapon for Zi Yu.

Ye You’s Sparrow Spirit Scepter glimred with colorful light, and wherever it touched, the bodies of the Ghost Wing Bats ignited with purple flas, turning them to dust in an instant.

Qin Sisi wielded the Golden Scale Snake Whip using Gold Attribute Magic Power, slicing through each Ghost Wing Bat like sharp daggers, spilling green blood on the cracked, dry land.

The magic power of these Ghost Wing Bats was quite ordinary; they only had the advantage of numbers.

The involvent of Qin Sisi and Ye You turned the tide of battle, and eventually, nearly a hundred Ghost Wing Bats were all slain. Those burned were destroyed, and the rest of the bodies ford a dense black heap on the ground.

The three of them panted as they exchanged glances, each showing a satisfied smile.

"Let’s go!" Zi Yu said, preparing to venture deeper into the Forest of Death.

"Wait." Ye You stopped Zi Yu, flapped his magic wings, and descended to the ground, bending down to pick up a Ghost Wing Bat’s body. With the other hand, he used Gold Attribute Magic Power to summon a small dagger, slicing open the Ghost Wing Bat’s forehead and retrieving a black inner core from inside.

The beasts here didn’t form Magic Crystal Stones; instead, they all had an inner core.

Ye You said in a deep voice, "These creatures have their reasons for surviving under the Divine Power. Consuming their inner cores might enhance our ability to adapt to this environnt."

He handed the black inner core to Qin Sisi, who took it without hesitation and consud it.

Ye You then dug out another black inner core for Zi Yu, but Zi Yu waved it away, saying, "Thank you, but I’m afraid my next plan is to disperse all the essence and Spiritual Power within myself to restore the Forest of Death to its original state. The unknown ingredients of this black inner core might affect the spiritual nature of my internal Spirit Power, so I must decline."

Furrowing his brow, Ye You advised, "I understand what you’re saying, but the deeper you go into the Forest of Death, the harsher the environnt will beco. Relying solely on your own strength may be very challenging."

Zi Yu nodded, "I understand, I’ve already decided. No need to say anymore."

Seeing Zi Yu’s firm resolve, Ye You didn’t insist further and continued extracting inner cores from the Ghost Wing Bats’ bodies. He and Qin Sisi absorbed the Spirit Power contained in the inner cores.

After consuming several dozen black inner cores, Qin Sisi felt that the once biting cold winds didn’t feel as harsh as before, and the dry, scratchy sensation in her throat from breathing had lessened a bit.
