Chapter 1354: Chapter 1354: Rage for a Crown
After a brief rest, Zi Yu condensed a green cloud, while Ye You ford magic wings and placed Qin Sisi on his shoulder. The three continued to fly deeper into the Forest of Death.
After a period of calm flying, they encountered the second wave of Ghost Wing Bats, numbering in the hundreds. They flew over in a dark mass, blotting out the sky, like a huge cloud that could unleash a torrential downpour.
This wave of Ghost Wing Bats was larger, faster, and more aggressive. Upon seeing Ye You and Zi Yu, they quickly split into two groups, surrounding the two of them.
The Ghost Wing Bats didn’t give much regard to the white cat on Ye You’s shoulder, seeing it as just a small, soft, completely harmless pet.
Under the attack of dozens of Ghost Wing Bats three to four ters in size, both Ye You and Zi Yu felt great pressure, especially Zi Yu.
Though his spiritual power was abundant and his magic power strong, he rarely fought Demonic Beasts before, let alone such intense, outnumbered battles, leading to so chaos in his actions.
It didn’t take long before he was wounded, with a few scratches on his fair cheeks from the bat wings, losing his handso glow. His calf was also bitten by the bat’s fangs, blood flowing freely, staining his white attire and leaving him in a sorry state.
However, he showed no fear or retreat, gritting his teeth and grasping his jade silver rod tightly in battle with the Ghost Wing Bats.
Ye You and Qin Sisi were in much better condition compared to Zi Yu; being two people, Qin Sisi faced Ye You’s back, allowing them to guard both sides and giving the bats no opportunities.
The strategy was sound, but accidents happened.
In the previous encounter with Ghost Wing Bats, Ye You used his fire attribute magic power, which reduced the bats to ashes, destroying their inner cores as well.
To preserve the inner cores, Ye You chose to use thunder attribute magic power this ti, using lightning to strike the bats down.
The power of thunder attribute magic was as potent as the fire attribute magic, but didn’t make the bat corpses vanish; soon, Ye You had killed almost twenty of them.
Although Qin Sisi’s magic power was weaker, she achieved comndable results, having taken out several herself.
As Ye You used thunder attribute magic skills to down another bat, a fierce gale blew in. The bat, caught by the wind, didn’t imdiately fall but instead flew towards Ye You’s upper left, slicing the sharp wing tip across Qin Sisi’s back.
Qin Sisi cried out in pain, her skin beneath the white fur was heavily cut, spilling a string of blood beads in the direction of the falling bat.
Ye You quickly turned his head, heart aching imnsely, imdiately cradling Qin Sisi in his hands, swiftly using wood attribute magic power to stop her bleeding, placing her inside his clothes.
Then he lifted his head, glaring furiously at the Ghost Wing Bats in front of him.
A trace of magic power was injected into his magic source, accelerating its spin, releasing more magic power.
"Hell Fire Thunder Hamr!" He thrust both palms forward, forming a large hamr burning with purple flas in the air, fiercely smashing it down on the densest cluster of Ghost Wing Bats.
Purple flas intertwined with bright silver light burst out from where the hamr fell, spreading furiously. The remaining twenty-so Ghost Wing Bats around Ye You were hit by the Hell Fire Thunder Hamr, wobbling and plumting down.
So of the bats were instantly killed, while others still clung to life, yet lacked the strength to continue fighting.
Ye You dashed forward, giving the barely breathing Ghost Wing Bats a few more strikes with his Sparrow Spirit Scepter, sending all those attacking him and Qin Sisi to hell.
Initially, he hadn’t planned on using such a powerful magic skill so soon, aware that as they ventured deeper into the Forest of Death, the danger would increase, requiring him to conserve spiritual power, as powerful magic skills consud a lot of magic power, which was hard to replenish quickly.
But Qin Sisi’s injury drove him into a rage, leading him to prematurely use the powerful magic skill, indeed consuming a considerable amount of magic power.
anwhile, Zi Yu was still battling the Ghost Wing Bats surrounding him, with many left, and he was clearly struggling.
After dealing with the Ghost Wing Bats on his side, Ye You rushed into Zi Yu’s battle zone, back-to-back with him, fighting the enemies together.
Ye You’s magic power far surpassed Zi Yu’s; his intervention imdiately relieved Zi Yu’s pressure. Revitalized, he and Ye You together eliminated the remaining Ghost Wing Bats.
The arduous battle finally ended, with Zi Yu covered in cuts and bruises, bloodstained; Ye You also displayed signs of exhaustion. The two landed, preparing to rest before continuing their journey.
Ye You sat on the cracked, barren ground, carefully taking Qin Sisi out from his chest clothes, retrieved healing pills from his portable space, administered them to her, and used healing magic skills to treat her injuries.
Zi Yu, being plant essence, had the capability to heal himself, yet seeing Qin Sisi wounded, he said with concern, "Shall I help her with the healing?"
"No need." Ye You flatly rejected Zi Yu’s offer.
Qin Sisi was his wife, and it was only fitting for him to personally attend to her treatnt. Though his healing ability was not as potent as Zi Yu’s, he could achieve the sa result by investing more ti, and he didn’t want other n approaching his wife.
Understanding Ye You’s sentint, Zi Yu said no more, sitting cross-legged, using wood attribute magic power to heal his own wounds.
Half an hour later, both Qin Sisi’s and Zi Yu’s wounds were mostly healed.
Ye You took out so Spirit Revitalizing Pills from his portable space, giving a few to Qin Sisi and handing a few to Zi Yu.
Zi Yu looked hesitantly at the pills in Ye You’s hand, infused with spiritual energy.
Ye You explained proactively, "My pills are made with spirit grass and won’t affect the purity of the magic power inside you."
After a brief silence, Zi Yu said, "Thank you," accepting the pills and consuming them.
Soon, his eyes lit up. After two battles, his magic power had been greatly depleted, and he began to doubt whether they could reach the center of the Forest of Death.
However, after taking Ye You’s pills, he felt his magic power rapidly recovering, though not fully restored, his condition improved significantly, restoring his fighting strength.
