As they spoke, a huge mountain of earth hundreds of feet high appeared in front of them. The mountain was filled with holes the size of fists, as if carved by something.

In the pouring rain of ice, the earth mountain full of holes stood solemnly, and there were many rotten white bones scattered around it, it was like a huge tomb.

This is the nest of the gold-devouring ants, the largest ant mountain that the three of Ye Qingcheng have ever seen!

Due to the rain, the billions of gold-eating ants hidden in the ant nest are not active, and only a few are lost in the rain and do not know what to do.

Huo Jing bent down and pinched a big ant the thickness of a finger covered with gold dots, and it immediately opened its two sharp jaws viciously. He stared at the gold-devouring ant with fear, and said, "These fierce insects all have wings, and once we provoke them, they can gnaw us to the point of being left with a small number of them." ”

Bao Jun reached out and picked up a gold-devouring ant from the ground, and pulled it hard, it was like a copper and iron casting, no matter how much it was pulled, it took the opportunity to bite it, biting his finger bloody. He shook it off, sucked his fingers and buzzed, "Brother Cheng, just take us to see this?"

"This morning, when I came out to hunt, I was curious about what was hidden in this ant nest?" Ye Qingcheng said: "Later, I asked the old man, and he asked me to go in and see it directly. ”

"Go inside?" Huo Jing asked in disbelief, "Didn't your old man let you die?"

"Hey, hey. Ye Qingcheng said with a smile: "You don't know anything about the gold devouring ants......

More than a hundred years ago, it was a fifth-order Tianjiao who ruled the Deep Sea Lotus Island. Because the fifth-order strength is equivalent to the realm of the Martial Emperor of the human race, it is also called the Jiao Emperor. These gold-devouring ants are a kind of insect guard raised by the Jiao Emperor to guard its secret hall, so that it can be closed without being disturbed. Later, Emperor Jiao left the island, and the gold-devouring ants were abandoned by it. Although the gold devouring ants are not afraid of the five elements and are difficult to hurt by swords, they also have weaknesses: they are afraid of the breath of dragons and snakes.

"I see. Huo Jing suddenly brightened up and said, "You have a faint dragon breath on your body, and they don't dare to attack you?"

"Hmm. Ye Qingcheng nodded and smiled, and bent down and stretched out his hand, wanting to catch a gold devouring ant. As a result, the fierce insect that was not afraid of heaven and earth actually fled before he stretched out his hand.

"It's good to have a dragon heart!" said the little fat man in surprise, "You're in?"

"Of course. Ye Qingcheng said: "There is a thousand-year-old fire vine inside, full of fruits. Let's go, I'll take you inside!"

As he spoke, Ye Qingcheng walked towards the huge ant nest or ant hill in front of him, followed by Huo Jing and Bao Jun. In the sparse freezing rain, the ant mountain emits wisps of steaming white gas, and hundreds of millions of gold-eating ants hide there, and the heat generated keeps the entire ant mountain at a suitable temperature.

"Buzzing ......" When Ye Qingcheng and the three of them walked in front of the ant mountain, in the dense, fist-sized hole on the ant mountain, one after another hideous gold-devouring ants flew out, directly forming a small golden ant cloud, which attacked fiercely.

Huo Jing and Bao Jun were so frightened that they hurriedly took half a step back, while Ye Qingcheng erected a fist, clenched it violently, and shouted: "A piece of dragon power!"

In an instant, an invisible dragon aura swept out, and his pupils turned silver, but they did not become dragon pupils. It was as if a transparent spherical barrier appeared around Ye Qingcheng, and all the gold-devouring ants that flew towards him were shocked and retreated, forming a spherical space with a diameter of three zhang around them.

"It's okay, as long as they don't threaten those queens, they won't lose their minds. Ye Qingcheng said.

"What kind of spirit fruit is it?" Bao Jun said fearfully, "Shall we not go?"

"Yes, go in alone and pluck the vine fruit. Huo Jing looked at the gold-devouring ants around him with teeth and claws, and felt like he was retreating.

"That's boring. Ye Qingcheng smiled: "Come with me obediently, you have no way out." ”

"Sooner or later, we'll be killed by your curiosity. Huo Jing said helplessly.

As Ye Qingcheng walked forward, all the gold-devouring ants flying around them slowly retreated, but they did not disperse, they were already around them, cautiously guarding against them.

Under the corner of Ant Mountain, a piece of broken mud exposed by wind and rain eroded by wind and rain appeared, revealing an inconspicuous gray and white stone, on which a grotesque two-headed green snake was carved. Ye Qingcheng walked to the stone and looked at it a little, Bao Jun rolled up his sleeves and said, "Do you want to help?"

This gray-white seemingly ordinary stone is one zhang tall and weighs more than three thousand catties, but for Bao Jun, it is not difficult to move a stone of this level.

"It's a mountain stone, and you can't move it yet. As he spoke, Ye Qingcheng stretched out his palm, leaned against the stone in front of him, and recited an obscure and strange incantation.

A magical scene occurred.

After a grotesque spell, the cyan snake pattern on the stone appeared with a touch of green, and then as if it came to life, it quietly straightened its curled body. Then, a seven-foot-high ancient stone door appeared on the stone, and the two heads with a two-headed snake pattern first protruded on the stone door, and then suddenly recessed, and the stone door immediately opened, revealing a mysterious and quaint tunnel.

Ye Qingcheng walked in directly. Huo Jing quickly followed his footsteps and asked, "What spell did you recite just now?"

"Serpent Spell. Ye Qingcheng said: "In order to encourage me to come in and play, my old man specially taught me, and I don't know what the content of the spell means." ”

"Your old man is very curious. Huo Jing said.

"Hehe, if you want to be an animal trainer, you don't have any curiosity about what to do. Ye Qingcheng said with a smile.

As soon as they stepped into the tunnel three or five steps, the stone door behind them suddenly closed.

Bao Jun thought that the passage would become dark, but in the end, it was not as he thought. This winding passage, with no end in sight, is steeply dimmed, but it is not without light. The front of the passage was filled with a layer of hazy dark golden faint light, which was enough for Ye Qingcheng and them to see the road under their feet.

Next, they turned four or five corners and entered an empty space. In front of you, the steep ground becomes spectacular and majestic. All the Gold Eaters are like skilled craftsmen, building their palaces to be breathtaking!

The entire inside of the ant mountain is hollow, and there are huge black nests hanging in the cave, and each nest hides a queen ant, which is nearly a hundred. At the same time, on the inner wall of the mountain, there are countless gold-devouring ants, they are shining with golden light, in this dark and warm space, like a little star in the vast starry sky, spectacular and beautiful!
