On the other side, in a mountain area five miles away from Yaoye City.

At this time, Gu Chan was following Cheng Hao, walking through the mountains and forests in the dark.

As Cheng Hao walked forward, he whispered, "Master, we are almost there. There is a big cave a little further ahead. The ghost bat beast is hiding in that cave."

"You're so good! You were able to find this. I'm curious how you found it." Gu Chan said puzzledly.

It was also in the afternoon that Cheng Hao returned to the City Lord's Mansion and told her about this.

That's why the two of them appear here now.

During these twelve days, Cheng Hao did not return to the City Lord's Mansion. He was outside looking for news about the ghost bat beast. Until now, he finally found out.

Cheng Hao explained, "This guy has to eat every night. I investigated for eight days but didn't find any useful clues. It wasn't until the ninth night that I found two men in black living in Yehuangju. They ran out of the city every night. I thought something was wrong, so I followed them out quietly and found this place."

"What are those two men in black doing here?" Gu Chan asked.

"They catch people outside the city, send them into the caves, and then send them back. In this way, the person will fall ill the next day," said Cheng Hao.

Gu Chan nodded with relief.

The truth behind why a strange disease occurred in the Yaoye City area was completely revealed at this moment.

This was indeed man-made. The two men in black secretly captured people and brought them into the cave, letting the ghost bat beasts bite them and let their blood invade their bodies, and then sent these people back and waited for them to become sick.

Once these people become ill, they will eventually be controlled by the blood of the ghost bat beast and run into the cave to become food for the ghost bat beast. This is the most direct reason why these people with strange diseases will disappear for no reason and cannot be found at all.

After understanding all this, Gu Chan sneered and said, "Okay, then tonight, let's go meet this spirit beast and see how powerful it is."

"Master, we can't let our guard down! After all, this is a spiritual beast, and it can use its blood to control people. If we can't defeat it later, we'd better run away to save our lives, so as not to die here and lose more than we gain." Cheng Hao said nervously.

Gu Chan raised the mother sword of the Beast Taming Divine Sword in her hand and said, "Don't worry, I brought this sword with me. Are you still afraid that you can't defeat it?"

"Okay! Then I believe in the master." Cheng Hao nodded.

After saying that, the two of them quieted down and quickened their pace towards the cave ahead.

After an incense stick of time, the two finally arrived outside the cave.

Hiding behind a big tree, Gu Chan looked forward and found that the cave was just under a mountain wall. The entrance was only two meters wide, not very big, and was surrounded by weeds. It looked like an ordinary cave in the mountains, with nothing special about it.

But from time to time, a strong spiritual energy and an extremely unpleasant smell of blood would surge out of the cave, forcing both of them to cover their mouths and noses with their hands.

Cheng Hao said with a distressed look, "I came here for the first time last night, and when I smelled the smell, I almost vomited. It was so disgusting."

"Be patient! Let's go in and take a look first." Gu Chan said.

Cheng Haoqiang suppressed his nausea and agreed, and then the two of them quietly walked into the cave together.

When they entered the cave, they were instantly horrified, because the ground in the cave was covered with white bones, forming a thick layer covering the entire ground.

These bones include human bones and animal bones. They are really terrifying and disgusting to look at.

On the top of the cave, there was a huge black bat hanging upside down, more than two meters tall. At this moment, it was folding its huge black wings, wrapping its body and sleeping soundly, as if it had not noticed that Gu Chan and the others had broken into the cave at all.

Cheng Hao looked up at the big black bat hanging upside down above his head, his face turned pale with fear and he said, "Master, this should be it."

"Such a strong spiritual energy, it is indeed worthy of being a spiritual beast." Gu Chan said with a gloomy face.

Although the ghost bat beast was hanging upside down on the top of the cave and lay motionless, the spiritual energy released from its body had already enveloped the entire cave. This meant that the moment the two of them stepped into the cave, they had already fallen into the big net woven by its spiritual energy.

This is the same principle as a spider setting up a web to catch prey, except that the habits of bats are obviously different from those of spiders. It is not moving at this moment, probably because it does not take prey like Gu Chan and the others seriously at all.

If the person who just stepped in was a ninth-level physical expert, or a genuine spiritual beast, it would probably not be as calm as it is now.

After understanding this, Gu Chan immediately said to Cheng Hao, "Go out and guard outside the cave. Don't let anyone in."

"master……"

"Go, its power is beyond your comprehension. If you continue to stay, you will only be a hindrance. If a fight breaks out, I will have to protect you, and you will only be a burden to me." Gu Chan said coldly.

Cheng Hao sighed helplessly, and could only obediently retreat out and stay outside the cave entrance.

He also understood that what Gu Chan said was absolutely correct. With his strength, it was impossible for him to fight against a powerful spirit beast. On the other hand, although Gu Chan only had the sixth-level physical strength, she also possessed several physical skills and had the Qilin armor to protect her body. Even if she fought with the spirit beast and lost, she would still have a chance to escape.

So in this situation, it is best for him to leave and not drag down Gu Chan.

Inside the cave.

As soon as Cheng Hao left, the ghost bat beast hanging upside down above slowly spread its wings and opened its pair of red eyes. It stared at Gu Chan standing below and said with a sinister smile, "Little ghost, you are smart and made the wisest choice just now. I admire you very much. It's just a pity that although you are courageous, you are too weak. You are not qualified to shout in front of me at all."

"Qilin Armor, come out." Gu Chan raised his head and stared at the ghost bat beast, muttering silently.

As she finished her words, the extremely hard Qilin armor slowly emerged from her body and covered her entire body.

At the same time, Gu Chan activated the hard body technique, making her body as hard as steel.

After completing this double protection, she held the mother sword of the Beast Taming Divine Sword in her hand and said, "Whether you have the strength or not, we will know after we fight. Come on! It just so happens that I ate the dragon meat before, which not only improved my strength, but also gained new physical abilities. Now is a good time to test you and see if I can fight against a powerful spirit beast with my current strength."

"Hahaha……"

As soon as Gu Chan said this, the Ghost Bat Beast actually opened its mouth and burst into laughter, looking like it didn't take Gu Chan seriously at all.
