Chapter 72: Ant Swallowing Strange Change
These days, their main target is the Yang Green Swallower, but the Emerald Swallower Ant has also killed two, although the process is more difficult, but after testing, the strength of the Emerald Swallower Ant and them still has a certain gap, not that it cannot be killed. Just to be on the safe side, they have not targeted the emerald swallowing ant.
Fahua thought for a moment and said, "That's all it can be." ”
Before coming to the Green Sea of Life, the two of them were more cultivating together, and they rarely fought. The cultivation has improved quickly, but the tacit understanding is not particularly high. But after this period of fighting with the Ant Swallowers, with the increase of the Peerless Bead, they have become more and more aware of the benefits brought by this artifact, and they have become more and more tacit in battle, and their efficiency is getting higher and higher. It is also an important source of confidence for them.
What's more, once they can't fight against a strong enemy, they can also return here through the teleportation of the Peerless Bead, which is a hundred trials and tried, and it also makes their confidence much more sufficient.
"Let's go! This time, I will try to get at least two emeralds back. Lan Ge smiled and said confidently.
The two embarked on the journey again, silently entering a cave one after the other.
After these days of constant fighting and exploration, there were nearly two hundred caves accessible from the entrance of their anchor point. Most of them had already been walked, and the terrain was beginning to become more and more familiar. Fahua deliberately recorded the map route of some caves, where it is easy to encounter swallowing ants, and what level of swallowing ants will be encountered.
This time, to improve the level of ant swallowing to deal with, they chose a more familiar route to enter. Skillfully avoided several waves of ordinary turquoise swallowing ants, and gradually went deeper inward.
The perception range of ordinary emerald swallowers is not large, only about thirty meters, and more than thirty meters away, as long as there is no obvious sound, they cannot be detected.
As the terrain descends, the cave begins to widen. The life crystals on the top of the head had become significantly thicker, and in some places they had even taken on a dark green color due to their extreme thickness, emitting a deep glow. There is a huge amount of energy hidden in it.
It is worthy of the sediment of the green sea of life! If the life energy contained in these life crystals can be properly used, it must be a very remarkable existence.
But the Shuhai Clan obviously wouldn't give people a chance to study these life crystals. Fahua and Lan Ge also got a little bit of it, but they don't know if they will be able to bring the green sea of life by then.
After about a dozen kilometers deeper, their speed began to slow down, because the number of devouring life crystals on the top of the cave had begun to increase, and there were not a few of them Yang-green devourers.
Generally speaking, this is where they come in, killing from the outside to the inside as quickly as possible, killing the green swallowers as much as possible, and then exiting backwards before a swarm of swallowing ants comes, collecting the life thorns that have formed on the ground to ensure maximum efficiency.
But this time, since they had targeted the emerald swallowing ants, they naturally couldn't rush to do it in this place.
The Emerald Swallower already has a certain amount of intelligence, and what is even more troublesome is their command ability, if it is given enough time to let it command the other Swallowers, it will be too difficult to kill the Emerald Swallower. So, their plan was first to kill an emerald swallower by sneaking up on it to ensure the benefits of the trip.
"There are a lot of ants here! It's not easy to rush through without being detected. Lan Ge and Fahua hid in a depression in the stone wall of the cave, frowning slightly and looking inside from time to time.
Fahua said: "Be patient, if you really don't have a chance, go ahead the way before." Just don't waste time. ”
"Hmm." Lan Ge nodded.
In front of them was a relatively empty cave, about a thousand square meters, with more than thirty devouring ants devouring life crystals on the top, most of which were yang green. There are hardly any blind spots in the perception range, and it is difficult to rush through without being detected. We can only wait for their chance to show their flaws.
But today, these swallowing ants seem to be particularly edible, and the two of them waited for more than half an hour, as if they felt that half of the fruit in their stomachs had disappeared, and these swallowing ants did not show any flaws.
Lan Ge looked at Fahua, and the two exchanged in their hearts.
You can't wait any longer, waiting is a waste of time.
At this moment, suddenly, a loud whistle sounded.
This kind of roar is too familiar to them, and it is exclusive to the emerald swallowing ant. Hearing this roar, both of them were in good spirits. Generally speaking, as long as there is a roar, they can see the figure of the emerald swallowing ant next. Naturally, the opportunity came.
They were surprised, or rather different from every time before.
When the roar appeared, the ants that had been devouring the life crystals on the top of the cave suddenly stopped, and after a brief pause, they all suddenly crawled in the direction of the depths of the cave like a sea of rivers.
In just a dozen breaths, the thousands of square meters of cave in front of him became empty, and there was not a single swallowing ant.
"What's going on?" Lan Ge muttered to himself in surprise.
"That should have been a call just now." Fahua said thoughtfully.
"Let's go, go in and have a look. Maybe there's a chance. Lan Ge said as he spoke, the person had already jumped out, Fahua didn't catch him, he could only follow him, and said in his heart: "You slow down, be careful." ”
"Got it." Lan Ge was breezy and came to the entrance of the passage leading to the depths, and first looked inside, and after confirming that there were no swallowing ants, he got in.
Fahua followed him, and the two walked cautiously.
When they passed through some of the caves, they were surprised to find that the devouring ants that poured out of the other passages were all moving quickly towards the depths, as if they were all moving towards the same destination.
"What's the big deal with this Ant Eater, right?" Lan Ge's curiosity came up again, "Fa Yi, you said that if we can discover some secrets of the Ant Devouring Clan, can we also exchange those two Life Stones with the Shuhai Clan!" ”
"Stupid, do you know that curiosity kills people?" Fahua said helplessly, he was completely sure that in this special situation, it was the best choice for them to retreat immediately.
If you can get the emerald swallower to order the summoning, then the place where these swallowers gather can only be the place where the higher-level swallowers are located. The place they had reached in front of them was already a depth they had never been before, because they could go so deep without the Ant Swallowing Ant to stop them.
"Childish! My assumption is highly likely. And we're just looking, and we don't have to do anything. As he spoke, Lan Ge had already marched inward again.
Fahua followed behind him a little helplessly, "Once discovered, don't fall in love with the war, leave immediately." Do you understand? ”
Lan Ge said impatiently: "I know, why are you more verbose than my mother." When he just finished saying this, his body suddenly stiffened, and Fahua, who had the same heart as him, naturally felt the emotional changes in his heart.
"I'm fine." Lan Ge only paused slightly, and then deliberately explained in his heart, but the speed under his feet suddenly accelerated.
Fahua sighed secretly in his heart, how could he be fine?
After another five or six kilometers, they didn't encounter a single ant swallower, and the journey was like a smooth road. Fahua silently remembered these routes. After going out, it is natural to draw a map, and this time the situation is very special, and it is almost impossible to go so deep in ordinary times!
Especially in this dense cavern, it is no different from a labyrinth. If it weren't for the teleportation of the Twin Beads, they would never have dared to go so deep, it would have been too easy to get lost.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz!" The low humming sound grew from weak to strong, and gradually became clear.
Without Fahua's reminder, Lan Ge immediately slowed down, hid his aura more carefully, and slowly marched inward, while also opening his spiritual perception to the maximum, ready to respond at any time.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz!" The humming sound is rhythmic and continuous, with a special rhythm. This rhythm can even affect the heartbeat of Fahua and Lan Ge, and there are some subtle changes.
Not only that, but even the stone walls of the surrounding caves maintained this rhythmic tremor and resonance because of the humming sound that didn't sound too strong.
What surprised them even more was that the life crystals on the top of the cave began to light up, and these rays of light turned into layers of halos, circulating towards the depths of the cave, and seemed to converge in one direction.
The two of them cautiously moved forward in surprise as the light in front of them seemed to become stronger, and everything around them became clearer.
Finally, they reached the next exit of the cave, and when they looked in with their faces against the wall of the cave, they saw a scene that they would never forget.
It was the largest cave they'd ever seen in their lives, how big was it? It was almost as big as the valley when Hohua first went to the Temple of Wisdom to obtain the God-given Codex. The cave is sunken for more than 500 meters, and the top is composed of huge emerald spars, and the life spars here are not only dazzling, but also smooth as a mirror, which is obviously not naturally formed, but has been polished the day after tomorrow.
With the low intelligence of the ant swallowers, this kind of thing can be imagined, and the importance of this place to the ant swallowers can be imagined.
Beneath the huge emerald dome, the cavern, which is at least more than three kilometers in diameter, presents a strange gradient color as far as the eye can see.
