Chapter 196: Swamp Distress (1)

Since the four of them were all monks, they didn't light a bonfire to keep warm and drive away the beasts like ordinary mortals, but each found a dry place to sit down cross-legged and calmly began to regain their strength.

The surroundings were silent, except for the unpleasant smell of decay that rushed to the mouth and nose from time to time, it was also a good environment for meditation, with the late Judan monks sitting on the protection, Ye Hong was very relieved. So, not long after sitting cross-legged, he entered the realm of selfless meditation.

I don't know how long it took, a slight rustling sound woke him up, and he opened his eyes and swept around, except for the faint light that came down from the moon star, so that he could only see the scenery within a distance of ten zhang in a daze, and it was still a deep darkness in the distance. I saw that after Xie Wenkai made a silent gesture to him, he gently floated into the air, and a powerful divine consciousness force spread around him as the center.

But then, the rustling sound that was still slight suddenly sounded like some raw water dripping into the silent oil pot, and the rustling sound sounded sharply, and it became louder and louder from near and far, and after a few breaths, the area where Ye Hong and them were completely resounded, and there was a noisy rustling sound in the ears.

"It's not good, it's a Soul Devouring Ant!" Gao Peijie shouted, and then shouted to Ye Hong: "Boy, return the same way immediately, run as fast as you can, remember not to release your divine sense!"

Ye Hong's face also changed when he heard this, and after quickly releasing a wind technique for himself, he plunged into the darkness of the road without saying a word. At the same time, he felt a strong aura fluctuation coming from behind him, followed by a deafening crackling sound that resounded through the swamp, and the three Judan Stage monks had already begun to cast spells to kill the Soul Devouring Eater Ant, but Ye Hong estimated that they would not be able to hold on for much time.

On weekdays, in addition to teaching him the knowledge of Qimen gossip, Yin Jiuyou will also tell him some other aspects of anecdotes, and once talked about several particularly difficult demon beasts and demon insects on Haobo Star, among them, there is a demon insect called Soul Devouring Ant. It belongs to one of the man-eating ants, belongs to the demon insect that does not enter the stream, nearly one centimeter long, and is black-brown all over, but don't look at its appearance is not amazing, but it has a big appetite that is not picky, no matter how big a person or beast is, it is within their hunting range, and its eating habits are extremely mixed, from all kinds of animals and plants on the ground, to dead branches and carrion eat everything. When a colony of soul-eating scavengers finds the corpse of a demon beast, it will rush up from all directions, and when the colony disperses after a few minutes, you will find that there is nothing left. Even the eighth- and ninth-level high-level demon beasts and the monks of the Judan stage, once they encounter this kind of ant colony, if they don't react properly, they will sometimes also encounter bad luck.

Not only do these soul-eating ants possess the same strengths and flaws as other man-eating ants, such as their powerful bite, teamwork, discipline, and fear of fire, but they also possess a trait that other man-eating ant colonies do not have, that is, they like to devour their senses. The power of the divine consciousness seemed to them to be a kind of spiritual food that could make them feel extremely happy. Because of this trait, the Soul Eater is more difficult to deal with than the average man-eating ant.

To deal with ordinary man-eating ant colonies, monks above the Judan stage or low-level monks with strong spiritual power can be driven away or even controlled through the power of divine sense, just like when Ye Hong controlled the Apirant Snake in the Gastric Temple. But against this kind of Soul Eater Scavenging Ant, the power of divine consciousness is like a meat bun beating a dog, and all the power of divine consciousness will be devoured by the Soul Eater Saphant Ant. And the divine sense power released by Xie Wenkai just now was not only devoured by the nearby Soul Devouring Ants in an instant, but also exposed his whereabouts.

Not only that, but after devouring enough divine consciousness power, the Soul Eater will also advance. You must know that a group of demon insects that have not yet entered the stream can swarm and devour the eighth or ninth level of high-level demon beasts, so if they advance to the first level of demon insects, then the strength of this group of soul-devouring scavenging ants will increase exponentially.

At first, Ye Hong could still hear the sound of successive spell crits while running, but gradually the crackling sound became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared completely, I don't know if the three Judan stage monks withdrew or ...... , and then there was only a rustling sound like fried beans, which was the sound made by the Soul Eater Scavenger Ants when they crawled, Ye Hong ran wildly all the way, but the rustling sound in his ears was endless, it seemed that the number of this group of Soul Devouring Scavenging Ants was very large.

In view of the water-phobia of the Soul Eater Scavengers, Ye Hong took advantage of the hazy light of the moon and stars to choose places with water as much as possible to run to avoid the encirclement of the Soul Eater Scavengers. However, there were still a large number of greedy soul-eating and scavenging ants chasing him in the water several times, but fortunately he ran fast enough and the ants rolled slowly, so they escaped the pursuit. The most thrilling one, because it was dark and failed to perceive the complicated road conditions ahead, he stepped on it and fell into the quagmire, and when he was trying to get out, an ant mass the size of a basketball rolled over, almost about to land on him, at the critical moment, Ye Hong split the landing ball in half with a wind blade technique, and at the same time relied on the recoil force of this blow to get rid of the body from the pull of the quagmire, and took off his coat casually, and got rid of some of the soul-devouring scavenging ants that climbed up the body, so that he could temporarily escape without danger.

I don't know how long he ran, but the rustling sound of the Soul Eater Eater gradually faded until it disappeared, but he didn't stop and continued to run forward. Due to the darkness, he had not seen the direction of movement of the Soul Eater Scavenger Ant Colony from the time he began to flee. Ye Hong was worried that once he stopped, he might soon be caught up by the ant colony, and it was only safe to run far enough.

I don't know how long he ran, but he stopped after the morning glow of the bright star met Ye Hong's eyes. After taking a few heavy breaths, he began to observe his surroundings and discern directions. It was a pity that the view of the swamp was almost identical to his eyes, the same lifelessness, the same brown mist, the same low bushes, the irregularity of puddles, and he knew nothing except that he knew that he was facing the east by the rising star.

Since he had changed direction several times to avoid the ant colony during his run last night, it was impossible to return to the dry land where he had been camped last night, and he was lost. So, he took out a piece of sound transmission jade talisman that Gao Peijie gave him before entering the rotten swamp and entered the aura, and tried to call the three Judan stage monks, but the result was disappointing to him, and no aura was fed back. According to Gao Peijie's introduction, the sound transmission jade talisman they were holding in their hands was generated from the same mine, and the sound transmission range was about five hundred miles, which meant that the distance between him and the other three Judan period monks had exceeded five hundred miles.
