Chapter 232: Army Ants in the Desert

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Tu was shocked.

The rest of the people were also shocked. They looked around and were ready to fight.

They had experienced that the demon beasts in the desert were all powerful and bloodthirsty creatures. They were not afraid of death.

If they were delayed, all of them would die here.

Moreover, from the sound of this voice, it wasn’t just a demon beast. It was like an army of thousands of horses surging forward in a mighty manner.

“It’s army ants!” Ye Changge frowned.

This was a type of demon beast that lived in groups. Although its individual combat strength was not very high, it was extremely difficult to deal with.

It was difficult for the prey that they had their eyes on to escape from their pursuit unless they could kill all of them. However, this obviously did not conform to reality.

Although there were billions of these ants when they moved out, they were like a moving jungle. They were the most troublesome existences.

Then, they saw a scene that they would never forget for the rest of their lives.

At the corner of a distant hill, red and black ants gathered together and crawled toward them. The cracking sounds became clearer and clearer.

These ants were not ordinary ants. They were the size of a thumb, and the pieces protruding from their mouths were very sharp, like pairs of large pincers.

Under the reflected sunlight, Li Tu and the others all took a deep breath. Their eyes were filled with deep shock. They had no doubt that these large pincers could easily tear their skin and crush their bones.

Instantly, they all panicked.

The only one who could remain calm at the scene was Ye Changge. He could easily deal with these creatures that were difficult to deal with for others.

As everyone knew, as long as they were ants, no matter how big they were, they were afraid of one thing.

It was “Fire!”

Fire could burn everything and burn the heavens.

It was just a mere army ant. It was too easy to destroy them.

Now that his strength had almost recovered, he could use the demonic fire spirit to release flames. He could just throw a ball of flames in and watch the show.

These flames were not ordinary flames. They were spiritual flames that existed between heavens and earth. They had extremely tyrannical power. If the host’s strength was strong, even space could be easily destroyed.

Needless to say, these army ants would be like cotton puffs coming into contact with fire and they would instantly turn into a sea of fire.

Although these army ants were fast, compared to other demon beasts, they had a huge flaw.

They did not have high intelligence.

Even if there was a bottomless abyss in front of them, they would still choose to jump down without hesitation.

Only the ant king level ants here would have normal intelligence levels, but it was not too high either. It was equivalent to the intelligence of a human child.

If there was no ant king, Ye Changge would be able to kill all of the army ants.

As the army ants got closer and closer, Li Tu roared and ordered everyone to prepare their defensive positions. It was too terrifying.

There was no way to fight. There were too many of them.

The ground was densely packed with army ants. Their fronts were black, their middles were red, and their rears were black and red all over.

The originally yellow ground had been dyed black and red. It was full of the shadows of these army ants.

Although their combat strength was not good, they could not hold on much longer. Even if they were exhausted, they could die here, not to mention killing them.

Obviously, they had fallen into a dangerous situation.

Everyone felt numb at this moment. Sheens of cold sweat could be seen, and everyone’s clothes were all wet.

If they had a choice, they would rather encounter a powerful demonic beast. It was better that they had a chance of escape rather than the surety of being completely wiped out.

However, before their eyes, the densely packed army ants surrounded them from all directions. It was really too difficult to break out of the encirclement.

It was comparable to ascending to the heavens.

However, they could not just sit around and wait for death. Their mission had not been completed yet, so how could they die here?

At this moment, the army ants had already closed in on them, forming a circle around them.

“Attack!”

Following Li Tu’s loud roar, everyone used their full strength.

With a loud boom, the army ants were continuously blasted away, leaving large craters on the ground.

These people all used their unique skills. Some were frozen, some were powerful, and some had swords that were formed from spiritual energy, emitting a powerful aura.

With every strike, a large number of army ants died, and the army ants behind them would move forward. If this cycle continued, it would be as if there was no end to them.

There was no sign of any decrease.

After an hour, everyone looked exhausted. The long journey had already exhausted a lot of their minds, and now that they had encountered these troublesome demonic beasts, it could be said that it was a double disaster.

There were already people who could not hold on anymore, but they still held on forcefully. If they fell, they would die. No one wanted to be devoured by these detestable fellows.

Li Tu threw a punch and hit a large wave of army ant queens. Taking advantage of this gap, he said to Ye Changge, “Brother, we might not be able to go to the northern capital. If there’s a chance, we can drink more wine.”

As he spoke, he handed a wrapped box to Ye Changge.

The spiritual energy in their bodies was almost exhausted.

The army ants were still densely packed, and they would die sooner or later. They had originally thought of using fire to repel the enemy, but it did not seem to be of much use.

The black army ants in front of them were still okay. They made crackling sounds as soon as they encountered fire, and they were charred.

They thought that they had encountered hope, but the red army ants were no longer effective. Their armor seemed to be very special, and ordinary fire had no effect on them at all.

Not to mention the black and red army ants, which had already evolved wings and were flying around in the sky. They had already reached the realm of the refined realm and were very difficult to deal with.

They were already in despair.

Now, before the black and red army ants came up, they could still forcefully open a passage and send Ye Changge out. If they were a little later, it would be terrible.

These low-level army ants were already very difficult to deal with. When the powerful ones came up, none of them would be able to escape.

There was only one thought.

Unexpectedly, Ye Changge shook his head and returned the package to Li Tu.

This action made him completely confused.

What was going on?

Just as he was puzzled, Ye Changge smiled. “You should deliver this thing yourself. They’re just mere army ants. It’s nothing.”

Under his puzzled gaze, Ye Changge walked in front of him. Suddenly, a gorgeous flame appeared in his palm, releasing a powerful aura.

This flame was strangely crimson, and in the middle was nothingness. It was like a naked black hole, attracting everyone’s attention.

“This is?”

Li Tu was shocked.

His eyes were wide open. He had never seen such a terrifying flame. Just a glance was enough to make his soul tremble.

This was a natural suppression.

Although this flame was just a small wisp, it was much stronger than the fireball he had just shot out. The two were not on the same level.

If his was a fireball, then Ye Changge’s was the bright moon in the sky.

The difference between the two was like the difference between the heavens and earth. There was a huge gap between them.

It was hard to surpass.

Who was this ordinary-looking young man?

He could sense the enormous power within the flames, which had been compressed to a critical point. If the power within were to completely erupt, even a peak rebirth-level martial artist would die on the spot.

The others also had hopeful gazes. Although they did not have Li Tu’s sharp eyesight, they could still sense the power contained within the flames.

The power could easily deal with mere army ants.

They were saved.
