Xiao Ye kept traveling through the surrounding caves. Although he encountered many ant beasts in the process, he still found something wrong.
"Brother Yu, have you noticed that the number of ant beasts here is very small? A queen ant can produce many ant colonies at one time. Even if it is sealed, there should be more here? But so far
I haven’t encountered many, could it be that the ant beasts here are still killing each other?” Xiao Ye asked his doubts.
Even though this is not the earth, the habits of ants are basically the same, but the number of ant beasts in this ant nest is indeed too small, so small that it feels wrong.
"Probably not, ant colonies will not kill each other, but I also suspect it, but I can't confirm it yet." Yu Wen Yanyu said lightly.
"What do you suspect?" Xiao Ye asked.
"Ant colonies, especially the queen ant, this maternal spiritual animal has a special ability. It can lay many eggs at one time to reproduce different offspring. But there is another situation where the queen ant in order to let the colony
Becoming more powerful, they will only lay one egg in a special period. And this egg does not take a long time to hatch like other eggs. This egg contains the essence of the queen, which requires
Only with the support of a large amount of spiritual power and flesh and blood can they be hatched. And as long as the spiritual power and flesh and blood provided before hatching are much stronger, once this type of ant beast hatches, its strength can reach an astonishing and terrifying level." Yuwen Yanyu said seriously.
said.
Xiao Ye couldn't help but sigh: "If this is really the case, then if the queen ant lays such eggs a few more times, wouldn't the ant colony become the most threatening spiritual beast?"
"How many more times do you think this is food? Although this kind of ant beast is powerful after birth and absolutely surrenders to the queen, after all, it is the life essence of the queen that gives birth to an ant.
You can only produce a few ants in your next life, and each production consumes the life essence of the queen. If the queen of an ant colony dies, then the ant colony can also be declared extinct." Yuwen Yanyu said calmly.
said.
"But... your eldest brother seems to have known about the situation here from the beginning, and he came here just to steal the queen's demon heart. The queen's demon heart can not only be used to refine medicine, but also to refine weapons.
and other methods are possible.”
"Since he knows the situation here, why did he ask me to come here? Could it be that he asked me to be a bait?" Xiao Ye was very confused.
"The bait is pretty much the same. In fact, from the very beginning, I felt that everything here was very special. It was not only caused by the ant beasts, but also man-made." Yu Wen Yanyu said remindingly: "That big brother of yours may have done it in the beginning.
Then we know that there is a special egg here. I am afraid that these people were attracted to provide nourishment for the special egg. As for the queen's demon heart... they may have created a special container that can be used to preserve the queen's demon.
The vitality of the heart will eventually control all the ant beasts here."
"Try to think about it, what kind of combat power should there be with so many ant beasts?"
Xiao Ye thought for a while, there are many ant beasts here, and they are all of the third to fourth levels. If there are still fifth levels, then the overall combat power will be more powerful than the entire Xuanfeng Dynasty. If they really control this place
With all the ant beasts, the Star Luo Chamber of Commerce is equivalent to controlling a dynasty.
"Listening to what you said, I now even inadvertently suspect that he had already planned to do this when he first saw me." Xiao Ye's eyes revealed murderous intent, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Yuwen Yanyu added: "Perhaps, this person is really cruel. But...you, the big brother on the surface, has a very strange aura. I can indeed feel the masculinity of a man in him.
But there is still a very strong feminine energy in his body. Perhaps he had some kind of special constitution when he was born, which caused the imbalance of yin and yang in his body. That's why he became like this. Is it difficult for a woman to be like this?
The appearance of a woman has led to his current ruthless mentality."
"Who knows? But you also said that he and I are just brothers on the surface, and we are all related by interests. If he really wants to use them as nourishment for the ant eggs, who will he be?
Even if he is the son of the King of Heaven, I will take him to hell! You really think I am a soft persimmon!" Xiao Ye said angrily.
At this time, Mu Yun's token lit up again, and Xiao Ye picked up the token and listened.
"Brother Xian, I found something very interesting here. Come and have a look."
"Hmph, it's coming so soon. It seems that our guesses are pretty much the same." Xiao Ye snorted coldly: "How about it, are we going or not?"
"Let's go and have a look." Yu Wen Yanyu said calmly: "Let's see what tricks he wants to play. Besides, isn't it me? If we can't beat him, won't we run away?"
"Then go. If that's really what he plans to do, I don't mind leaving them here forever." Xiao Ye said lightly, but there was a heavy murderous aura in his voice.
Following the guidance of the token, Xiao Ye arrived here quickly. In addition to a large number of ant colonies, there was also an extremely large ant beast in the innermost part, which should be the queen ant. Below the queen
, there is also an egg, and the egg exudes an extremely powerful aura. It has such aura before it hatches. If it hatches, the strength of this ant beast must have reached the level of a fifth-level spiritual beast.
Not only that, a group of people who came down together just now have also arrived here. It seems that Mu Yun is really planning to use these people and himself as nourishment.
"Brother, this is the nest where the queen ant lives. What good things can be found here? Could it be the unhatched egg?" Xiao Ye asked, pretending to know nothing.
Mu Yun smiled and said: "Yes, it is indeed that egg. That egg was laid by the queen ant with the life essence. It contains rich energy. If it can be refined, it will definitely be worth a fortune.
income."
"Young Master Yun, there are a lot of ants here, and a few of them have reached the fifth level. You said that your Xingluo Chamber of Commerce will do its best. Why?" Someone suddenly asked.
Xiao Ye looked around and saw that he was a young man who looked about the same age as Mu Yun. He also had the strength and cultivation level of Nascent Soul Realm.
"For what reason, I just hope that in the end you will not snatch the ant queen's demon heart. That demon heart has a great effect on our chamber of commerce. Is this reason enough?" Mu Yun said lightly.
"If this is really the case, then I won't rob it." The young man said calmly.
"What about you guys?"
"We have no objection either."
"Could it be that the eldest brother wants to control the ant colony here for the sake of the ant queen? Why not control the powerful ant beast that is about to hatch?" Xiao Ye pretended to be smart and guessed it directly.
"Brother Xian is indeed smart, but that ant beast is too powerful. Even if it has a demon heart, if there is no spiritual carrier of the queen ant, there is still a great risk of going berserk. Instead of doing this, it is better for us to refine it, and we can still get
A large amount of spiritual power has been improved." Mu Yun said calmly: "Okay, I don't know when the egg will hatch. Let's fight it quickly. Please don't hurt too many ant beasts. I will definitely give it to you afterwards.
I would like to express my gratitude to you with some generous gifts.”
"Thank you, Master Yun."
Everyone rushed over, including Mu Yun and his two guards. Xiao Ye didn't know what to do, so he followed behind and acted according to the opportunity.
Suddenly, Mu Yun smiled sinisterly at the corner of his mouth and took out something, which seemed to be a jade slip.
The jade slip was gently crushed by him. Suddenly, a dazzling light lit up on the ground, and lines appeared one after another on the ground under everyone's feet. The lines were all connected together and turned into a formation.
Except for Mu Yun and his two guards, everyone, including Xiao Ye, was unable to move, and even their spiritual power could not be condensed.
"What, what's going on?"
"Young Master Yun, what do you mean?"
Mu Yun smiled very calmly: "I'm sorry everyone, I can only ask you all to stay here."
When everyone was still puzzled, Xiao Ye suddenly smiled and said: "Sure enough, I found that there was something wrong with the barrier from the beginning. It was not a barrier created by monsters, but a barrier created by humans.
Those people must be those powerful figures in your chamber of commerce, brother..."
"There is something about special ant eggs here. You should have known about it early on. You must have arranged this formation early in the morning, just to wait until it is about to hatch. Then we will be the nourishment for this ant beast. I am right.
That’s not right…brother.”
Xiao Ye answered everyone's doubts, and now everyone realized that they had all been used.
Bang bang bang!!!
"Brother Xian is indeed smart. I really can't let you go. Unfortunately, I can't help it. You are too smart and difficult to control. I can only destroy you." Mu Yun smiled, smiling like a gentleman, but he was also very smart.
He looks very petty.
"Young Master Yun, what's the benefit of doing this to you? You also said that without the spirit of the queen ant, the only carrier is the demon heart, and you can't control this powerful ant beast at all. This sentence is absolutely true. What are you doing by doing this?
For what?" someone shouted angrily.
What he said is indeed correct. Without the spirit of the queen ant and only the demon heart, it is impossible to control the hatching ant beast. Once the ant beast devours everyone here, it will only become stronger. When the time comes, Mu
There is no way for Yun to escape.
"You don't have to worry about it now. Since I dare to do this, I am fully prepared. When we discovered this egg a long time ago, we planted a mark in the egg, so this
The ant beasts will only obey our orders after they hatch." Mu Yun said calmly: "Okay, which of you will come first? Anyway, sooner or later, you will die."
"Young Master Yun, please spare my life. I am willing to be a cow or a horse and be your slave for the rest of my life. Please show mercy." Someone cried.
But Mu Yun showed an extremely gentle smile, which was so warm but made people feel cold.
"I already have a lot of slaves around me, and I don't lack one like you. And I know that you are a villain who killed his own brother for a woman. I can't sleep well if I keep you alone. Since
If you are so afraid of death, then you should be the first one."
After saying that, he motioned to the two people behind him, and Shi Zhentian then flicked the man and threw the person into the ant eggs.
"Ahhhh!!"
Accompanied by screams of despair and pain, Xiao Ye and others seemed to be able to see the ant beast gnawing inside the egg.
