Chapter 156: The Feast
The moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and a hundred miles west of the Southern Barbarian Demon Territory, three inner disciples from the Beast Gathering Sect are sitting in a circle in a cave, eating and drinking in the dark.
However, the three young men were not in a good mood, they had been sent out for almost a month, saying that it was to exterminate the ant colony, but so far they have not seen a single ant demon.
"It's a chore to sleep in the wilderness every day, but not even a single spirit stone or treasure medicine is distributed. One of the long-faced youths complained.
"Damn, we didn't even dare to make a fire in order to lure out that ant colony, and I have a toothache from eating this broken dry food. The other chimed in.
"This is also something that can't be helped, chasing and killing the ant colony, it belongs to our Tengyun Snake This branch is the most suitable. However, once we find the ant colony, we can have a full meal. When you return to the sect, there is also a reward. The last bucktooth youth did not eat and drink, but calmly persuaded him.
"With Elder Zhao here, how many rewards can we get, and that black ant, I'm afraid most of them will have to feed his big snake. The long-faced youth snorted disdainfully.
Senior Brother Wu said cautiously, the elder and the other senior brothers are nearby, be careful that the wall has ears. The bucktooth youth hurriedly reminded.
"What are you afraid of, I'm ......" The long-faced young man was about to continue, when he suddenly saw the bucktooth young man's face change, and interrupted in a low voice: "There is movement, the black ant has taken the bait!"
The three young men immediately fell silent, put away the dry food and wine jugs, and prostrated on the ground. At the entrance of the cave where they were, there was also a rustling sound at this time, and more than a dozen vines that were originally hanging at the entrance of the cave came to life and fell to the ground one after another, guarding the entrance of the cave.
This is not a vine at all, but a very similar Tengyun snake, a demon beast controlled by them.
These cloud snakes are very hidden, shaped like withered vines, no more than a foot long, and the scarlet vertical eyes are open, which makes people shudder.
On a big tree a hundred zhang away from this cave, there was also a Tengyun snake, but at this time, it was still silently staring at the newly planted treasure medicine under the tree, and the aura of the Seven Grades of Perfection was completely constricted.
The five black ants under the tree seemed to have no idea, and they were working together to extract the seven-grade treasure medicine, and then quickly escaped into the ground, leaving towards the west at a rapid pace.
"I saw it clearly, it should be the ant colony. The bucktooth youth said with a little excitement. The seven-rank consummate cloud snake hanging on the tree was the strongest demon beast he controlled.
"Catch up, find the place, swallow them. The long-faced young man said eagerly. The Tengyun Snake under their command can be said to be the natural enemy of black ants, and once they eat some black ants, they are likely to evolve rapidly.
"No, we must notify the elders immediately, otherwise we will only go and not return. This ant colony is not simple, and the three of us simply can't deal with it. The bucktooth youth said decisively.
"When the elder comes, what else is going on with us?" said the long-faced young man with an unhappy expression, obviously trying to swallow the ant colony alone.
The bucktooth youth said calmly: "There must be a queen ant in this ant colony, and we are probably not opponents." Now the elders are summoned, and the credit is also counted as the two senior brothers, and I will not be greedy for merit, how about it?"
The long-faced young man and the other person glanced at each other before saying, "Okay, I'll summon me now." ”
After the long-faced youth was interrogated, the three of them left the cave with all the Tengyun snakes under their command and hung far behind the black ants.
As for the seven-rank consummation cloud snake that was originally hanging on the tree, it also followed in a reluctance, closest to the black ants, but did not alarm the black ants leading the way in front.
In less than a quarter of an hour, several waves of disciples scattered all over the place gathered from all directions, converged with the three of them, and tracked each other down without a word.
After another hour, twenty-four disciples who were at least in the early stage of the seventh rank had already chased beyond the barren mountain, and their faces were full of joy, they had really found the nest of the ant colony. Now, it's time for a bumper harvest.
"Surround the whole mountain, and let it be spared neither on the ground nor on the ground. "The elders, who don't know where they are hiding, send a message to all the disciples.
Twenty-four people immediately dispersed, of course it was impossible for them to surround a mountain, but when each of them had dozens or hundreds of Soaring Cloud Snake Demon Beasts, it seemed to be relaxed.
For a time, the withered vines covered the entire mountain, and even the bottom of the mountain spread out a large net of clouds and snakes, blocking the water around the entire mountain.
As for the mid-air on the mountain, there was an old man with white beard and triangular eyes, stepping on the back of a three-zhang Tengyun snake with open wings, and scanning his eyes coldly below.
Around him, there were hundreds of Tengyun Snakes hissing and whispering, and these Tengyun Snakes were the weakest and the seventh rank was perfect.
The Tengyun Snake can not only escape to the ground, but also spread its cloud wings and fly into the air, so it can be called the natural enemy of demon beasts such as black ants.
"Everything is ready! It's time to start this feast, and the old man's mount may be able to pass this hunt and enter the five perfections. The old man muttered to himself with a low sneer.
When the disciples below were ready to reply one after another, the old man gave an order: "Kill!"
Almost at the same time as the old man gave the order, Lu Ming, who was hidden in the clouds above his head, also ordered the queen ant at the same time: "Kill!"
It was indeed a feast, but it was impossible to say whose feast it was.
Two orders were issued, and the Tengyun snakes outside the mountain suddenly moved out in unison, tightening the encirclement towards the ant colony's nest, and the murderous atmosphere was soaring.
It's just that what greeted them was an empty shell, and in that nest, there were only thousands of black ants of the ninth grade as bait.
The queen ant and the main force of the ant colony, who had really reached the seventh or eighth rank, suddenly emerged from the outer periphery and directly killed the disciples of the Beast Gathering Sect who remained outside the mountain to supervise the battle.
Although these disciples also had the guardian Tengyun Serpent by their side, most of the power was sent into the mountain. At the moment, they also want to get a piece of the pie and speed up the evolution of their demon beasts.
The main force of the ant colony under the leadership of the queen ant is very terrifying, not to mention that there is also a Wang Erniu who gives advice by his side, and under the concerted efforts of the two, those disciples didn't even have time to react, they were swept away by the ant colony frenzy and died, and most of them didn't even hold on for ten breaths.
Of course, there are exceptions among them, the bucktoothed young man who first discovered the black ant still has his most powerful seven-rank consummation cloud snake by his side.
As soon as he found out that something was wrong, this person gave up decisively, drove the Tengyun snake beside him, flew into the air, and accelerated to escape in the direction of the Gathering Beast Sect.
"The reaction is very fast, but unfortunately, I can't let you escape. Lu Ming used his Cloud Turning Palm to trap the angry and frantic White-bearded Elder in mid-air, and at the same time, he was distracted and waved several wind spirit chains, binding the bucktooth youth who had just escaped a hundred feet away, making it impossible to get out.
"I'll clean you up later, and now, start my harvest. Lu Ming stared at the Tengyun Snake under the white-bearded elder's seat.
This is a rare doppelganger bone material. There are also a large number of demon beasts controlled by this elder, which should be a lot of time and space power.
