Scarlet Flower 006: A Strange Beast That Devours Spiritual Power: Black Ants

Jiang Xiao noticed that Xiaolin's mental state was not good, and if he continued to hold on, there would be problems, so he took the initiative to come over to change the guard.

Jiang Xiao's detection method is completely different from Xiaolin's, Xiaolin is a large area of spiritual power completely covered, although the detection range is good, but the consumption is huge. Jiang Xiao's spiritual power was used quite perfectly, such as silk's spiritual power weaving a network in the air, expanding the range and reducing consumption at the same time.

After a while, my mental strength will be exhausted after two hours of self-detection, and then I will go to change shifts.

I have to say that Jiang Xiao's talent is extremely high, and while his spiritual power is detected, he can also draw out a spiritual power for cultivation.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, although there was a little sound in the woods, it was a normal phenomenon, and Jiang Xiao did not detect a strong enemy.

"It's a shift change. Murong Yue came from behind, patted Jiang Xiao on the shoulder, and sat beside him, but Jiang Xiao had no intention of leaving, he still maintained his original posture.

"I have enough mental strength to hold on a little longer, you can go back to sleep. Jiang Xiao's meaning was very clear, he could completely help Murong Yue keep vigil.

"No, I can. Murong Yue naturally wouldn't trouble Jiang Xiao, she also organized a network of probes and prepared a vigil. Seeing this, Jiang Xiao withdrew his spiritual power, stretched his waist by the way, and said to Murong Yue: "It's a pity that the others are not here, so it will be much easier." ”

"Perhaps, maybe it could be worse. Murong Yue replied.

Jiang Xiao said naturally An Yan Leng Xiaotong and Chu Yunyun, in the Purple Star Academy, the five of them fought hard to reach the semi-finals of the team competition, and the tacit understanding was quite good, but they didn't expect that just a few days after that, everyone was separated.

Maybe the worse meaning is the opinion of Murong Yue, An Yan admires Jiang Xiao, Jiang Xiao likes Leng Xiaotong, this strange love triangle is uncomfortable to watch, but Leng Xiaotong is as cold as snow and will not agree to Jiang Xiao. And An Yan is unexpectedly considerate, and will not cause any trouble to Jiang Xiao, and it is unlikely that she will remain in Jiang Xiao's heart.

If they continue to stay in the academy, the three of them will remain in this state for a long time, and it may be a good thing to be separated now.

"Live in the present, memories are something that only old people do. Murong Yue smiled, and Jiang Xiao also nodded in agreement.

"Then I'll go back to sleep. Jiang Xiao didn't say much, his right hand was on the ground, and he was about to get up, but he was slightly stunned when he helped him like this.

With a flick of his wrist, a black object was pinched in his hand, Jiang Xiao stood up suddenly, and at the same time slapped his other hand on Murong Yue's shoulder.

"Get up, there's something here. Before Murong Yue could react, he was gently lifted by Jiang Xiao with one hand, Jiang Xiao threw out his spiritual power and lit up, and then Murong Yue saw what was in his hand.

A black ant, as long as a finger, with very developed jaws, strange to say, before Jiang Xiao mentioned this black ant, Murong Yue didn't notice that there was this thing nearby, only when he got close could he feel the faint spiritual power attached to the black ant, and this faint spiritual power was the breath of the space system.

"Spirit Devouring Ant!" Murong Yue was so shocked that she directly condensed the flames and wrapped the black ant in Jiang Xiao's hand, Jiang Xiao was afraid of being hot, so he also threw it out.

"What?" Jiang Xiao rarely saw Murong Yue so flustered, obviously she knew this creature and wanted to understand the situation first.

"Oops. Murong Yue helped Jiang Xiao and turned her head to look at the black ant that Jiang Xiao threw out, but the flame disappeared in an instant, and there was an extra breath of fire spiritual power in that position.

Murong Yue ignored Jiang Xiao, she drew a spark by herself, and the sparks that suddenly lit up in the black shadow also made the surrounding scenery clear for a moment, and the flash of this moment made the two of them see everything in front of them clearly.

The black pressure giant ant was in front, they slowly crawled towards this side, at first glance, the trees and the grass on the ground were already full of this kind of black ants, Jiang Xiao could see more clearly, there were several animal corpses in the distance. No, it should be said that it is a skeleton, there is no flesh on it, and up close, these black ants are besieging other insects, and they are swarming up, tearing them apart and eating them.

Murong Yue stumbled under her feet, no matter how strong she was, she was still a girl, girls have nasty things, and most girls didn't like bugs, not to mention that this was the case, the two were almost surrounded by bugs.

Jiang Xiao held Murong Yue's shoulder, and he saw that several of the black ants on the trunk of the tree in the height jumped down directly, which should have come with the spiritual power that Murong Yue used to make sparks.

Is the soul eater ant, as the name suggests, an ant that specializes in eating spiritual power?

"Don't be afraid, let's go!" Jiang Xiao held Murong Yue's shoulder tightly, sending her a positive message, and at the same time, he slapped a barrier with his hand, slapping down the black ants that fell from the sky, but at the same time as this barrier appeared, more black ants fell from the sky, intending to devour the spiritual power.

Jiang Xiao had an idea and threw the barrier in a very far place, and as soon as those barriers appeared, they attracted a large wave of black ants, including the front part was also attracted to turn back.

Murong Yue immediately came to his senses, the two of them woke everyone up, Murong Yue reported the situation to Liang Xin, Liang Xin's face was pale, he quickly commanded everyone to evacuate, several people fled in embarrassment, under Liang Xin's reminder, no one used a trace of spiritual power, and ran completely by pure physical strength.

On the way, Murong Yue and Liang Xin briefly explained the situation to everyone: Spirit Devouring Ants would eat high concentrations of spiritual power, but they rarely ate physical objects with low spiritual power. Therefore, this group of sub-spirits is their feast, full of temptation, and any release of spiritual power will attract their attention, just like ordinary ants will pay attention to the sun.

Moreover, every time the Soul Eater Ants go out, they will raid a large area, which is definitely not good news for everyone.

"So, what's going to stop them?" asked Kobayashi at the end, panting.

As soon as he asked this question, Murong Yue and Liang Xin glanced at each other, as if seeking an opinion, and then said in unison: "River!"

Although fierce, these black ants are larger and more bulky than ordinary ants, and they will not cross the river in a group unless there is any accident.

"Let's save our energy, control our speed, and we will cross the Jade River before dawn tomorrow! Be careful, don't use spiritual power, so they won't track us, and everything will be safe when we cross the river." Liang Xin quickly made a decision and led the way at the forefront.

Everyone was frowning, and it was clear that the situation was not very good.

First, the surrounding ant colony is dispatched, I don't know if it will bump into them again, Jiang Xiao has used the barrier to try the devouring strength of the spirit devouring ants, and they can slowly devour the absolute defense skill of the space barrier, which can be seen step by step, and the degree of danger can be seen.

Second, Liang Xin's "natural" characteristics can no longer be used, and everyone doesn't know if they will encounter powerful magical beasts again, and they don't know if the route will be wrong.

Third, the surroundings are too dark, one foot deep and one foot shallow, it is very easy to fall when running, and everyone's physical strength is uneven, Liang Xin is very worried about whether the physical strength of the four young people can support it.

In short, the danger has come, and this is really going to be fateful.

The last mission was also to take this route, but he didn't encounter such danger, how could he Liang Xin think that a place that was peaceful and quiet a few days ago would encounter danger today.

"Be careful!" Jiang Xiao stretched out his arm to support Murong Yue, who almost fell again, but fortunately Jiang Xiao helped. Running in such a dark place, Murong Yue's mental strength was no longer enough for her to grasp the details, so she would stumble every few steps.

Murong Yue is still like this, not to mention the others, except for the head and deputy head of the group, the others have not even started to cultivate spiritual power, let alone detect and use.

Jiang Xiao is the most relaxed one, the resonance of spatial spiritual power, allowing him to grasp a large amount of information on the ground, so that he will not fall. And his physical strength is extremely terrifying, so it can be said that this amount of exercise is not enough to warm him up.

Everyone only ran for a quarter of an hour, Xiao Lin and Xiao Zhou had almost fallen behind, without using spiritual power, their bodies were the weakest, everyone had fallen seven or eight times, Jiang Xiao looked carefully, if it weren't for the fact that these two people were facing life and death, they wouldn't have been able to hold on for so long.

On the other hand, Lao Zhao, the head and deputy head of the regiment still have a lot of spare strength, and they should be able to continue.

Although Murong Yue's physical fitness is not as good as that of a few old mercenaries, it is definitely not bad, not to mention that she has Jiang Xiao's help, and with perseverance, she can continue.
