117 Lair Battle (1)
There was a hissing sound in the cave, which was made by Ji Dao's hands on the rock wall, and then only two slight sounds were heard, and the two of them landed smoothly, this kind of vertical shaft of only twenty or thirty meters is naturally no problem for Ji Dao and Qian Xuan now.
Although they have not suffered any injuries except for the first wound from the toothed ant bite because they were not paying attention, they are still not optimistic.
After running for so long, Ji Dao still saw that picture, the pitch-black Yongdao, and the steady stream of toothed ants coming towards the two of them, as for what landmark place Qian Xuan said, he didn't find it at the moment.
In the shaft, Qian Xuan had already replenished his soul power, and this vertical landing was the only time they had time to replenish their soul power when there was no tooth ant attack.
This cycle will eventually exhaust their strength, which is why Jidao doesn't like words like "look at luck", he learns strategy and wisdom, this kind of thing that is not under control is too risky!
But now they have nothing to do, because their abilities are limited, and they can't find a way out in their own way. If the strength of the two of them is strong enough, they can kill a bloody path directly above, and there is no need to go to such great lengths to find the queen ant like now.
The moment they decided to find the queen, they were already gambling.
Although Jidao had thought of this aspect, the movements of his hands and feet still could not be stopped, and now time was as precious as life, and they had to find the ant queen they were looking for before their soul power was exhausted.

The sound of toothed ants being chopped and broken was never broken, and Qian Xuan and Jidao had to step on the corpses of countless toothed ants everywhere they passed, they didn't care about their lives at all, as long as they saw the intruder, they went crazy and pounced up, even if the intruder was a hundred times stronger than them.
Suddenly, Jidao saw a ball of light moving quickly towards him, and floating in the air, his face changed slightly, and a quick hook fell firmly on the body of the unknown object!
I saw that the object in the air exploded instantly, and instantly splattered a liquid and splashed on Jidao's arm, most of the parts of Jidao did not feel any abnormality, but a small part of the skin had an obvious burning sensation.
This is obviously not an ordinary toothed ant, not only does it have wings, but it is more than twice as large as an ordinary toothed ant! Ji Dao just wanted to speak, only to hear Qian Xuan speak at this moment.
"Jidao, this is a soldier ant, be careful not to splash your eyes with his blood, it contains some of its own venom!"
"The nest of the soldier ants may be very close to the queen ant, Jidao, if you follow the direction of the soldier ants, you may be able to find the queen ant!"
Jidao nodded, although these soldier ants were probably just patrolling individuals, and the location of the soldier ant nest could not be deduced.
But this is a direction after all, where there are more soldiers and ants, run that way, although doing so may encounter greater danger, but this is the only way to find the queen ant at the moment!
Bang! Bang!
The number of soldier ants has increased significantly, and Jidao killed three soldier ants in a row, but he doesn't know where their large army is, although Jidao doesn't really want to meet them head-on.
After turning a few more intersections, they suddenly saw a toothed ant appear, and the two of them were also a little surprised, but they still hurried to replenish their soul power with soul stones, and the concentration of soul power below was extremely thin, and it was basically impossible to supply recovery.
But then, they heard a loud buzzing sound, like the sound of a swarm of wild bees marching in this direction, but this was an anthill, and the only one who could make that sound was - soldier ants!
The two of them were expressionless, and they couldn't tell whether they were happy or sad, and encountering such a colony of soldiers and ants indicated that they were one step closer to the queen ant. But on the contrary, it also indicates that they will be baptized by the soldiers next!
Sure enough, under the reflection of the sword light, a black torrent gushed out in front of him, and in an instant, he was already close to the two of them.
Bang! Bang!
With such a density, the two of them couldn't avoid it at all, so they had to use the raging waves to form a protective barrier around their bodies, and crackling sounds continued to appear on the protective shield.
Everywhere they looked, they were all soldiers shooting at the two like bullets, and they slammed into the protective shield frantically, shaking Qian Xuan's hands and trembling, but the two still had to keep advancing.
Black blood and severed limbs were splattered everywhere, and the ants poured out like demons, threatening to devour the intruders!
If this kind of terrifying scene were to be seen by someone who was not firm in heart, I am afraid that he would faint on the spot, even Ji Dao and Qian Xuan were now pale, because the lives of the two of them were tied to the protective shield generated by the wild waves, and the moment when this shield could not support it was the moment when they were torn to pieces!
"Extreme!"
Qian Xuan snorted lightly, Ji Dao naturally understood what she meant, and took over the storm and entered her soul power, now there is only one path, they just need to keep advancing, like this, the two of them alternately provide the soul power required by the storm is the best choice.
Feeling that the soul power in his body was frantically withdrawn and consumed, and there was also cold sweat flowing down Ji Dao's forehead, he realized what kind of pressure Qian Xuan was under.
With such a level of impact, Ji Dao thought that his soul power could last for at most thirty seconds before it was drained.
Qian Xuan is stuffing the soul stones into his mouth one by one, the soul stones melt in his mouth, so there is no difficulty in plugging them, the key is to completely replenish his soul power within thirty seconds, so this is needed.
The two of them continued to advance in this way, seeing the number of soul stones drop sharply, but the soldier ant army in front of them didn't seem to have the slightest intention of stopping, and the black torrent continued to impact the protective shields of the two!
The two of them are like passers-by walking on the street with an umbrella in a stormy weather, receiving the baptism of wind and rain. Like a faltering candle flame, it seemed that it would be overturned at any time, but they miraculously persevered.
If they come alone, they will really be consumed directly!
That's because one hand can't hold the raging tide in your hand at all, and even if you clench it with both hands, you feel like it will break away from your hand at any time, let alone one hand!
The soul stones of the two of them are decreasing dramatically, and the complexions of Ji Dao and Qian Xuan are becoming ugly, if they continue to consume like this, they don't even have a 1 in 10,000 chance, they can only be consumed here.
Their luck doesn't seem to be so bad, though.
After struggling to hold on for a few minutes, the Soldier Ant's offensive finally came to an end, and the two of them were overjoyed, because they had found a bright light in front of them, which was a bright light that only crystalline minerals could emit.
This means that the soul concentration there can provide them with recovery, because at this time, there are only a few of their soul stones left, and this bit of soul power is not enough to even stuff their teeth.
The reason why the Desert Reaper is known as a Death Worm and not a Desert Tooth Ant is because they do not carry any soul power, so they are only a mortal threat to low-level monks.
If they bring Xiao Hei, they can quickly pass through the toothed ants, because with the attack power of the toothed ants, although they can cause a lot of damage to the two of them, but biting Xiao Hei's body means that they can't even bite his skin, and they can't break the defense.
But the death worm is different, this kind of creature that can be cultivated can continue to evolve to obtain more terrifying abilities, and the threat is naturally much greater than that of the toothed ant.
Before entering the entrance of the cave, Jidao only heard Qian Xuan say something serious.
"Jidao, the next thing we have to face is not miscellaneous soldiers and civilians, we may face their royal guards!"
