After a wild surge of Sword Qi like a raging gale, over a thousand blood bats, along with the Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King, were all shredded into finger-sized pieces.
Like dumplings dropping into a pot, they blanketed the area beneath Qin Shiyuan's feet, falling into the blood sea that resembled lava.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
In the Hell Road, which had returned to silence, those steady footsteps rang out once more.
The white-clad figure continued down the path without looking back.
The deeper he went, the closer the lava-like blood sea beneath his feet drew, and the dark crimson glow heated even the surrounding air.

Those eyes were not particularly large, yet for some reason...
The radiance within them felt dozens of times more terrifying than that of the Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King.
Accompanied by rustling sounds, the dark crimson snake slowly began to slither forward.
There were nine protrusions on its head and back, each resembling a bright red mushroom, as though blood were flowing
