Chapter 230 - The Sound of Demon Bats

Just as the demon bats were being chased by the fire dragon formed by the kerosene lamp in Ike’s hand, a cry suddenly came from the depths of the cave.

Immediately, all the demon bats began to fly into the depths of the cave, like soldiers who had received orders, nice and orderly.

Then, these demon bats formed a strange formation, and one after another, they launched sound wave attacks.

Ike was naturally prepared for this. Immediately, everyone used the divine power in their bodies to protect their ears. This way, they could block the sound waves.

However, the demon bats in this cave were different from the ones they had encountered before. The sound waves of these demon bats could not only affect their minds.

They could even affect the divine power in their bodies. One or two of them was fine, but against such a large number of demon bats, once the barrier formed by their divine power was broken, everything would be over.

Fortunately, although the sound waves could affect their divine power, it did not affect their minds as much.

All of them realized the seriousness of the situation and did not dare to hold back.

They all attacked with all their might, trying to disperse the sound wave attack formed by these demon bats.

However, it was only after they attacked that they realized that these demon bats were not only different from the sound wave attack that had changed.

They did not know why, but these demon bats’ bodies had actually become more than ten times stronger. Their attacks did not have any effect on these demon bats.

There was not a single wound.

At that moment, they realized that there was something wrong with the demon bats. However, it was too late.

Under the continuous attacks, a hole appeared in the barrier formed by their divine power. The barrier was broken through by the sound wave attacks of the demon bats.

The attendant lost consciousness and attacked the kerosene lamp in Ike’s hand.

Only then did Ike realize how terrifying these demon bats were. They were actually able to use sound waves to control the movements of others.

However, after the kerosene lamp failed, there was no longer anything that could restrict the demon bats. In an instant, all the demon bats charged towards them.

Fortunately, they weren’t ordinary people. Furthermore, they had brought along quite a bit of their wealth this time. They had all brought out their abilities.

Then, thinking of escaping from this cave, it was obvious that these demon bats had undergone some powerful changes. Their bodies were even stronger than King of the Gods like them.

And most importantly, there was a wanderer demon bat king inside.

It was this wanderer demon bat king that gave the order just now. Only then did those demon bats know how to use sound wave attacks to deal with the kerosene lamp in Ike’s hands.

With their current strength, they definitely couldn’t deal with these mountain breeze demon bats, let alone that unknown mountain breeze demon bat king in the depths of the cave.

However, only when they wanted to escape the cave did they regret why they blocked the entrance of the cave, and why they blocked it so tightly.

However, it was still narrow and crowded at the entrance of the cave. The bodies of these demon bats were too huge, and they couldn’t attack all at once.

It bought them a lot of time.

After paying the price of a few more lives, they finally removed all the restrictions on the huge rock and broke out of it.

However, at this moment, a high-pitched cry came from the depths of the cave. The remaining two attendants instantly lost their minds and started to attack Ike.

Ike had survived because he had many life-saving items on him. However, he still took the attacks of the two attendants.

Although he didn’t die, all the life-saving items on him had been used up.

Now, he really didn’t have anything to rely on. If he couldn’t escape from this place, he could only activate the imprint on his hand and leave this maze.

“Damn it!” Ike cursed in his heart when he saw his two subordinates charging towards him.

At this moment, he also noticed Jerry and the others who were watching from the side. Ike’s expression turned completely dark.

Just a moment ago, he was still high-spirited and thought that he could solve all the problems in the cave. In the blink of an eye, he had escaped in a sorry state.

Not a single one of his followers was left!

“Don’t even know how you died when the time comes.”

The words that Jerry had said before suddenly appeared in his ears again, and the situation now seemed as if everything was within the opponent’s expectations.

This made Ike feel even more upset. Since these people had not left yet, his two followers had attacked again.

It seemed that the maze had failed this time. Ike was also quite decisive. Without any hesitation, he avoided the attacks of his followers.

He glanced at Jerry and mocked, “I’ll leave this cave to you!”

He activated the mark on his hand and instantly disappeared from the maze.

He reappeared in front of the entrance of the endless tower.

At this moment, the sky had yet to turn dark. There were still many people setting up stalls around the endless tower. They saw a disheveled figure appear out of thin air.

The experienced people naturally knew what had happened. This was clearly a trial-taker who had failed the first level of the endless tower.

“Sigh! Another failure!” Someone sighed.

“He looks very pathetic. Judging from the wounds on his body, he must have been injured by the demon bat!” There were many people among the stall owners who were well-hidden. With a glance, they could tell that the wounds on Ike’s body were caused by some demon.

“Sigh! Isn’t that the guy who has been stuck on the first level? What’s his name?” Someone recognized Ike.

“That’s true. He has been stuck on the first level for a long time. I heard that before he entered the endless tower last time, he swore that he had made sufficient preparations this time and that he would definitely be able to pass.”

“How can it be that simple! Sufficient preparations? There’s no such thing as sufficient preparations. No one knows what they will encounter in there. No matter how much you prepare, it’s useless. Sometimes, it’s just luck.”

“That’s right. Some people have been here for a long time, but they still can’t pass. And some cultivators have just arrived. To be able to successfully pass the first level on their first visit to the endless tower, who can say for sure? Don’t you agree, Dibos?”

Dibos had an uneasy look on his face. He naturally knew who these people were talking about. In the past few decades, other than the fellow who had successfully passed the first level of the endless tower a few days ago, there was no one else.

It was also that fellow who had caused him to lose two thousand years leaves of youth and twenty low-grade spirit crystals.

Moreover, he had become the laughingstock of these people. In less than half a day’s time, the rumor has spread throughout the area.
