The Great Overlord: The Insect Eats the Thousand

After roughly walking around the ant nest, Tian Chong finally had a detailed understanding of this group of black ants.

The number of Black Underworld ants in this ant nest should exceed 10,000. There are also quite a few gathering food and hunting spiritual beasts outside. Calculating from this calculation, the entire Black Underworld ant colony should have nearly 20,000. of black ants.

No wonder this area of ​​nearly a hundred miles is a dead place. They must have been eaten by these black ants.

As for the crater where the Nine Nether Bird is located, it is considered a forbidden area for all spiritual beasts in the entire Black Underworld, directly separating this group of Black Underworld Ants from the outside world.

Let's see how strong the queen ant is...

There is a powerful queen in every ant nest. It can be said that all soldier ants and worker ants are the descendants of the queen.

Often the strength of this queen ant will be one level higher than that of ordinary soldier ants. If you calculate this, the queen of this group of black ants should be a high-level spiritual beast. In this way, it will be more difficult for the celestial insects to conquer the ant colony. .

After passing through the labyrinth-like passage, the soldier ants controlled by Tianchong finally discovered the location of the queen ant in a huge underground space at the deepest part of the mountain.

Different from the ants seen in the previous life of Sky Insect, the queen of this black ant does not have wings, and looks more like a giant waterhopper than an ant, with two-thirds of the body being a huge insect belly. , if you look closely, you can even see the shape of ant eggs densely packed in the abdomen.

When the celestial insects outside saw this scene, some couldn't help but grin, and some didn't expect the queen ant to look like this.

In terms of its level alone, it is indeed the level of a high-level spiritual beast, but it doesn't look like it has very strong combat power. In other words, it is simply a fertility machine!

This situation seems pretty good to me...

According to the experience of heavenly insects inheriting their original bodies, this type of insect swarm is the easiest to mutate or strengthen, because as long as the queen ant is provided with enough conditions, it can breed corresponding different offspring. It is much simpler than directly improving the entire population like the Soul Devouring Bee.

In this case, it's time for me to take action...

Withdrawing his consciousness, Tianchong allowed the soldier ant to continue to act as his spy in the ant nest, while he himself began to look for a suitable place to subdue this group of black ants.

With such a large number of ant colonies in front of me, naturally I can no longer control them like I just conquered the soldier ants. Not to mention whether I can bear the consumption, even with this number, I estimate that I won't be able to conquer them all even if I give myself a few months.

Faced with such a large insect swarm, the spirit insect tribe naturally has its own methods.

The Soul Captivating Formation is also a secret formation inherited from the Spirit Insect Tribe. It is specially used to deal with swarms of insects. The effect is very good. The only drawback is that it requires a wide place and must be arranged in advance.

The materials Tianchong had originally asked Mu Feng to prepare for his position included the things needed to set up the soul-stirring formation, so now he only needed to find a suitable location and then set up the formation.

This kind of place is not difficult to find. Not long after, Tianchong found a huge depression on the west side of the ant nest, and then released hundreds of Soul Devouring Bees to guard the surroundings. He himself began to be busy around the depression.

An hour later, Tianchong, who was already sweating, finally arranged everything, and the spiritual power in his body was exhausted.

After spending half a day recovering, Tian Chong took out a bottle of spirit insect liquid he had concocted and threw it directly into the center of the depression.

The porcelain bottle containing the spirit insect liquid shattered when it hit the hard rock. The black spirit liquid spilled all over the floor, and then a special smell drifted into the ant nest along the wind.

The next moment, the originally quiet ant nest started to riot. Countless black ants rushed out of the nest frantically, and then followed the guidance of the smell and came to the depression.

Tian Chong was not surprised at all by this scene, because he knew very well how attractive his spirit insect liquid was to these wild spirit insects.

When thousands of Black Underworld Ants had densely gathered in the depression, Tianchong showed a smile on his face, the handprints of his hands changed rapidly, and he yelled angrily in his heart: The Soul Captivating Formation, rise!

Following his movements, nine spiritual light pillars instantly rose up around the depression. Then, with these light pillars as the center, a huge spiritual light shield quickly formed, and then enveloped the entire depression.

When the large formation surrounded them, the black ants in the depression that were originally mad because of the spiritual insect liquid fell into a sluggish state. At this time, they were just like the soldier ants at the beginning, their consciousness was directly disturbed by the large formation, and each one of them fell into a sluggish state. Neither can control their own bodies.

Seeing this, Tianchong breathed a sigh of relief, but did not dare to show any signs of neglect. You must know that there are still black ants outside the depression that are continuing to rush over, but they are now blocked by the large formation and are getting anxious. linger.

He had to subdue all the black ants inside before the formation was destroyed by the group of violent black ants, and then let another group in. He didn't have much time during this period.

Taking a deep breath, Tianchong concentrated his mind and quickly slid his hands in the air. As he moved, rays of spiritual energy quickly condensed, and then followed the trajectory of his hands, condensing a complex large-scale in the air. Spiritual runes...

When the spiritual power rune took shape, it immediately flew over the group of suppressed black ants in the formation, and then exploded, turning into spiritual power light spots and sinking into the bodies of these black ants.

A spiritual power rune mark appeared on all the black ants that were touched by the spiritual power light points. The shape was exactly the same as the spiritual power rune constructed by the sky insect just now.

Okay, let's change to the next batch!

Tianchong drank in his heart, and then released another spiritual worm sac to collect the group of black ants, then opened the formation, let the group of black ants outside come in again, and so on...

About a bottle of spiritual insect liquid can attract three or four waves of black ants, and then they will completely evaporate. Then the sky insect will take out another bottle and smash it, and continue to lure those black ants over.

The cost of a bottle of spirit insect liquid is about 100,000 spirit stones, and this is just the cost of materials. At first, Mu Feng sent ten copies in total, and Tianchong successfully prepared nine bottles. Just for these black ants, five bottles were wasted...

To be honest, Tianchong was still quite heartbroken. After all, he was completely broke now, and these things were obtained by working for himself.

As for the rune that Tianchong just cast, it is the insect control charm used by insect masters as a conventional insect control method. However, after the insect control charm of the spirit insect clan has been improved, it can conquer spirit insects on a large scale as before. This is only possible if you have Something that can only be accessed by those who truly complete the inheritance of the insect master.

Compared with the previous blood talisman, this talisman is obviously more convenient and faster, and consumes less money, but it cannot allow the insect master and the spirit insect to realize consciousness sharing or telepathic communication like the blood talisman, so the two can be regarded as different. There are pros and cons, you just need to choose different methods when facing different goals.

Because of the special nature of the queen ant, the conquest was smooth and everything went smoothly. But even though he was prepared in advance, conquering so many black ants in a short period of time still made the sky insect very tired.

Looking at the gradually darkening sky, the Celestial Insect was also preparing to rest outside the ant nest for the night.

Anyway, this place belongs to the sphere of influence of the Black Underworld Ants. Even high-level spiritual beasts usually dare not approach it, so there is no need to worry about safety issues.

But when Tian Chong was surprised, the soldier ants controlled by him with the blood charm actually brought him a lot of good things from the ant nest...

A spiritual sword at the level of a high-grade spiritual weapon, and there are also some swords, guns, swords and halberds, but most of them are only low-grade spiritual weapons.

These are all left behind by the humans who broke into the Black Abyss. As for the humans themselves, they have become the food of this group of Black Underworld ants.

As for some ordinary weapons and armors, because they are not spiritual weapons and have been eroded by the fire of the mutated black ants, they have now become a pile of scrap metal. Naturally, the Celestial Insects I won't want it.

According to the market price, a high-grade spiritual weapon costs more than one million spiritual stones, and a low-grade spiritual weapon requires tens of thousands of spiritual stones. Therefore, these spiritual weapons alone are enough for the Celestial Insect to recoup its investment.

A simple calculation means that I have prostituted a group of black ants for nothing...

When he thought about it like this, Tianchong's mood immediately improved!

After a night's rest, Tianchong felt that yesterday's fatigue had disappeared, and his whole body was full of energy again. Next, he needed to go deep into the core of the Black Abyss to detect the traces of the Golden Source Celestial Silkworm.

According to the information recorded in the scroll in his memory, the Golden Source Celestial Silkworm is most likely hiding somewhere in the Black Abyss. However, this thing is very cunning. When it is not strong enough, it will hide its whereabouts. Very good, only after it transforms into a cicada will it really run out and do its bidding.

Although the core area of ​​the Black Abyss is not large, the terrain is more complex. There are even passages to the depths of the earth in many places, and these places often hide terrifyingly powerful high-level spiritual beasts and even heavenly beasts. So we have to be careful in our actions.”

Before setting off, Tianchong kept reminding himself in his mind.

However, if there is a colony of Black Underworld Ants to explore the path, coupled with the flying Soul Devouring Bees, and a carpet-like search, the chances of finding clues should be greatly improved.

Moreover, when encountering ordinary high-level spiritual beasts, the Black Underworld Ant Swarm alone can deal with them, and can further ensure the safety of the Celestial Insect itself.

As he advanced along the way, Tianchong encountered many high-level spirit beasts. After being devoured by the black ants, he was left with some materials such as claws and scales, and of course the more precious spirit beast essences. …

Ordinary low-level and mid-level spirit beast essences are not valuable, and few people would choose to refine them, but the spirit beast essences of high-level spirit beasts are different. In a remote place like the Northern Spiritual Realm, a high-level spirit beast spirit The soul is what everyone is chasing.

For example, in the Northern Spiritual Academy where Muchen is currently located, the essences refined by the instructors in the academy are just ordinary high-level spiritual beast essences, and they are even ranked outside the hundreds...

For example, the Thunder Moon Wolf Essence obtained by Tianchong is ranked 187th on the list of Ten Thousand Beasts. If it were placed in the outside world, it would probably be snapped up by others.

Of course, if he were not too short of money, Tianchong would not sell these high-level spiritual beast essences, because he still needs these essences to prepare various special spiritual liquids with different properties to strengthen the spiritual insects and even promote spiritual growth. Insect evolution and mutation, etc.

This exploration can be regarded as a way for Tianchong to collect materials for himself, so that he will not be able to find the Golden Source Tianchong again, and he will not return empty-handed.

In this way, the time lasted for a month, but apart from having more materials in hand, Tianchong did not find any useful information.

He had already searched the entire core area of ​​the Black Abyss three times, not to mention digging three feet into the ground. He had dug more than three feet into the ground, but he still found nothing.

Tian Chong himself already doubted whether the information in his memory was wrong. Could it be that the locations recorded in the scroll were not the Northern Spiritual Realm and the Black Abyss?

Unfortunately, when the original body was burned to death, everything on his body was burned at the same time, and the scroll placed in the Qiankun Bracelet did not survive, so it is impossible to look at it again now.

But the Celestial Insect would not be willing to give up just like that. That was the six-winged golden cicada, an ancient ferocious insect that could compete with the Holy Grade Heavenly Supreme in ancient times!

Just when Celestial Chong was about to search for the last time, Celestial Chong, who was walking in an underground passage that was originally considered the most unlikely, suddenly heard the small rustling sound coming from the stone wall...

Huh?! Tianchong was suddenly startled, and then listened carefully, but he didn't hear any movement anymore, as if everything just now was his auditory hallucination.

However, Tianchong didn't believe that he was hallucinating. As the saying goes, details determine success or failure. Maybe his previous searches were because the details were not good enough, which made him ignore some important information.

After thinking about it, Tianchong bit the tip of his tongue and spit out a mouthful of blood essence. Then he quickly condensed the spiritual power of his hands and used the blood essence to construct a special blood talisman, and then instantly disappeared behind the stone wall...

Perception is one of the methods that every insect master needs to master to search for spiritual insects. After all, spiritual insects are different from spiritual beasts. Some special spiritual insects have powerful concealment abilities that cannot be found with the naked eye alone.

Because the spirit bugs are born with a special affinity for spirit bugs, they can use their own essence and blood to enhance this perception to a very terrifying level. However, usually the sky bugs will not use this method. After all, biting the tip of the tongue is quite painful. , and it also consumes blood essence...

Sure enough, after using the special perception technique, Tianchong immediately discovered the truth behind the stone wall. In his perception, there were a large number of spirit insect reactions hundreds of meters behind the stone wall. It seemed that there was a spirit insect hidden deep underground. A nest of insects.

Although it is not direct information about the Golden Source Celestial Silkworm, for such a mysterious insect nest, the spirit insects inside must be extraordinary. This is also rare good news for a spiritual insect master.
