Chapter 1957: Complete Spirit Treasure Bat Whistle and Strange Little Mirror

He hadn't expected that his opponent possessed a soundwave-emitting Heavenly Spirit Treasure, which was quite rare. The Bat Clan excelled at soundwave attacks; few Spirit Transformation cultivators could withstand their combined assault.

"Sister Sun, quickly lead your disciples away from here, the farther the better. My husband's soundwave attack is indiscriminate; even I cannot block it." Wang Ruyan transmitted her message to Sun Wu. She clearly understood the Nine Flood Dragon Drum's power; if not for the Sea Glaze Orb, all the Nascent Soul cultivators from Zhenhai Palace would have perished. Sun Wu also recognized the extraordinary power of the Nine Flood Dragon Drum. She nodded and controlled the green flying boat, steering it away.

At this moment, the red-shirted young man rapidly descended towards the enormous whirlpool. His bat wings flapped continuously, emitting a bright fiery glow. He opened his mouth and spewed out an incredibly thick crimson flame, which struck the colossal whirlpool but was swallowed up like mud in the ocean. Wang Changsheng swung his right fist towards the red-shirted burly man, unleashing countless blue water vapor currents. With a flash of blue light, a blue fist shadow, over a hundred zhang large, shot out. The punch generated a mighty wind that stirred ripples in the void, seemingly on the verge of tearing it apart.

Even before the blue fist shadow neared, a powerful oppressive force assailed him. The red-shirted burly man found it difficult to breathe. A blinding red light erupted from his body, and his form blurred, abruptly transforming into a gigantic red bat over ten zhang in size, with crimson eyes.

Just then, a muffled groan suddenly echoed. The red giant bat's speed faltered, and the massive blue fist shot forward, smashing into its body. With a thud, the red giant bat plummeted into the colossal whirlpool. The powerful currents acted like countless sharp blades, hacking at its body. The red giant bat emitted an agonizing shriek, its body becoming covered in numerous horrific bloody gashes, as if subjected to dismemberment by a thousand cuts. The colossal whirlpool spun faster and faster, and the red giant bat's flesh rapidly diminished.

Boom!

Seeing no escape, the red giant bat resolutely self-detonated. A blinding red light illuminated tens of thousands of miles around, and a powerful shockwave swept across the sea surface, churning up enormous waves and causing the wind and clouds to churn backward. After a while, the massive waves subsided, the wind calmed, and the red giant bat was gone.

A flicker of surprise crossed Wang Changsheng's eyes. The Bat Clan was indeed ruthless, choosing self-detonation rather than facing capture. The golden-robed old man's expression turned grim. With a darkened face, he flipped his hand and produced a flat, glowing whistle shaped like a flying bat—clearly a Heavenly Spirit Treasure. The other two Bat Clan members each took out an identical whistle, flickering with spiritual light, evidently also Heavenly Spirit Treasures. This was a set of Bat Whistle Spirit Treasures. Originally, there were five pieces, with one for each of their five members. However, one companion had died at Song Yunxiang's hands, and another at Wang Changsheng's. To some extent, soundwave-type Heavenly Spirit Treasures were even rarer than flying magical treasures. Ordinary cultivators couldn't unleash much power from soundwave artifacts. They had commissioned this set of Bat Whistles at great expense; when activated simultaneously, their power was immense.

"Not good! Don't let them combine forces, or we'll all die!" Song Yunxiang's face dramatically changed as he blurted out. Chen Xin reacted swiftly, sweeping his golden giant staff like an unstoppable golden torrent towards the three golden-robed elders. The three golden-robed elders swiftly placed their Bat Whistles to their lips. A sharp, piercing screech erupted, resembling both birdsong and a beast's roar, echoing endlessly. The sea churned violently, sending up massive waves. The wind swirled wildly, creating an astonishing momentum. Chen Xin felt a tremendous force impact him. The web of his hands went numb, and the golden giant staff flew backward. Lu Guanghong slammed his right hand into the void, causing it to tremor and distort. A massive red hand, hundreds of zhang in size, swept across the sky, suddenly appearing above the three golden-robed elders' heads and rapidly descending. No sooner had the red hand appeared than it suddenly twisted and warped, then burst apart, dissolving into scattered red light and vanishing. The Sea Glaze Orb floated above Wang Ruyan's head. Her willow-like eyebrows furrowed, and she felt a chaotic disturbance within her mind, filled with vexation.

Wang Changsheng's expression darkened. A complete set of Heavenly Spirit Treasures—no wonder Song Yunxiang was no match for them. He also had little confidence. Unless they could scatter the Bat Clan, perhaps they might be able to eliminate them. Wang Changsheng was not arrogant enough to think he could fight three opponents by himself.

"Brother Chen, do you have a way to break them up? With their set of Heavenly Spirit Treasures, we are no match for them." Wang Changsheng transmitted his message to Chen Xin. The Bat Clan dared to penetrate deep into human territory, clearly indicating their formidable strength.

"If Junior Brother Lu and I combine forces, we can scatter them. Since they possess a set of Heavenly Spirit Treasures, we can only defeat them one by one. However, they might not separate." Chen Xin's brows furrowed. A protracted battle wouldn't work either, as their escape speed couldn't match the Bat Clan's.

"Fellow Daoist Song, do you have a way to break them up?" Wang Changsheng transmitted his message to Song Yunxiang, his voice heavy. Song Yunxiang showed a hesitant expression. It seemed he possessed a treasure capable of dealing with the Bat Clan, but for some reason, he was reluctant to use it.

"I have a treasure of immense power. If I catch them off guard, killing one of them would certainly be no problem. A direct frontal assault would be ineffective." Song Yunxiang transmitted his message.

"Good. We'll create an opportunity for you; take advantage of it to eliminate one of them. Then, the rest will be easier to handle." Wang Changsheng's expression was grave. He had initially thought the Bat Clan would rely on their powerful physical bodies for close-quarters combat!

At this moment, an invisible soundwave swept over, causing the void to vibrate and twist. Wang Changsheng's fists glowed with dazzling blue light as he slammed them towards the Nine Flood Dragon Drum. Several dragon roars rang out, and a materialized blue soundwave swept forth, meeting the incoming attack. The blue soundwave instantly exploded, sending seawater splashing everywhere. Ripples like water patterns spread through the void, seemingly on the verge of tearing it apart. The power of a complete set of Heavenly Spirit Treasures was indeed considerable. Chen Xin wielded his golden giant staff, shattering the incoming soundwaves. Wang Changsheng formed a hand seal, and suddenly six colossal blue water spheres appeared on the sea surface. The blue water spheres spun rapidly, growing larger and larger, standing on the sea like six blue mountains.

"Go!"

With a soft shout from Wang Changsheng, the six massive blue water spheres rapidly rolled towards the three golden-robed elders. As they moved, they emitted deafening tsunami-like roars, and a buzzing sound echoed from the void. The three golden-robed elders exchanged glances. They stood back-to-back, each facing a different direction, forming a triangular defensive stance. The Bat Whistles in their hands suddenly glowed intensely, and a sharp, piercing sound rang out. Three invisible soundwaves swept forth, meeting the six colossal blue water spheres. When they collided, the six blue water spheres seemed to hit a copper wall and iron barrier. They instantly exploded, sending monstrous waves surging. Seizing this opportunity, Song Yunxiang flipped his hand and produced a small, green-glowing mirror. On the back of the mirror was carved a ferocious Yaksha pattern, and the mirror's surface had two fingernail-sized chips. Its spiritual energy was astonishing, clearly indicating it was a mid-grade Heavenly Spirit Treasure. A chilling ghost wail rang out. After countless green lights illuminated the mirror's surface, an incredibly thick green beam swept forth, heading straight for the three golden-robed elders.
