Chapter 573: An Army of Ant Soldiers
Zuoqiu Suqing nodded: "That's what I meant." After speaking, he glanced at Liang Cheng, and there was a strange feeling in his heart, he didn't expect that this little demon dragon and himself had a tacit understanding at all.
After listening to Liang Cheng's words, the monks of the Wing Spirit Kingdom and the Foot Spirit Kingdom looked at each other for a while, and saw that everyone had no intention of retreating, so they said together: "Then let's do it, how can we get the opportunity without taking a little risk? We are all willing to go down." ”
Seeing that everyone's opinions were completely unanimous and no one was holding back, Liang Cheng drove his ant demons forward, down the hillside, and through the dark and dense trees.
After walking about four or five miles down, the situation was exactly as the monk surnamed Zhang expected, and there were more and more obstacles on the road, and many poisonous insects and monsters began to frantically take the initiative to attack this team.
Most of the things that come out to make trouble are some poisonous insects, although there are a lot of them, but their cultivation is very low, and they have no spiritual intelligence, they act completely on instinct.
However, this is also normal, because it is impossible for any demon beast with a little bit of intelligence to take the initiative to attack such a group of all-eighth-level demon cultivators.
For the sake of safety, the entire team slowed down, and the demon cultivators used their various defensive spells to prop up protective shields one by one, in case anything unexpected happened.
Those poisonous bees and mosquitoes with big bowls of mouths were fearless of death, and the sound of "poof" sounded, and they all hit the protective cover, and then fell to the ground, flapping their wings and crawling everywhere.
Liang Cheng looked coldly at the poisonous insects in the sky, and also held up a pale yellow protective light shield at will, in fact, he was just acting like this, because Liang Cheng had already reached the refining attainment of the golden body, coupled with the blessing of the Nine Dragons True Spirit Body, his physique was very powerful, and he was not afraid of the attacks of these poisonous insects at all.
It's just that the terrain is also very complicated now, there are hidden poisonous insects everywhere, and the speed of the entire team is getting slower and slower, and the loss of the ant demon released by Liang Cheng is also getting bigger and bigger.
Liang Cheng was about to re-dispatch some higher-level ant demons to explore the way, when he suddenly heard a few roars in front of him, and then suddenly three figures jumped out from behind a giant tree, these three figures were extremely tall, covered with green hair, and exuded a rotten aura, and when he looked closely, he found that these three monsters were actually three-headed green-haired zombies.
The cultivation of these three green-haired zombies has all reached the realm of the ghost king, and they are actually equivalent to the Jiedan monks of the human race, and they don't know whether the spiritual intelligence of these things is high or not, but their actions are extremely unified, and the purpose is also very clear, as if they were planned in advance, they actually joined forces and pounced towards Zuoqiu Suqing.
Zuoqiu Suqing was naturally awe-inspiring, but she didn't respond to the attack head-on, but flashed the edge of the three-headed monster sideways, and then the short sword in her hand emitted a faint cold light, stabbing towards one of the green-haired zombies in the chest.
I saw an inconspicuous black smooth over the chest of the green-haired zombie at the front, and then with a "snort", a shallow cut was made on its chest, obviously this zombie's physique was extremely powerful, and it was lightly injured under the extremely sharp blade of Zuoqiu Suqing.
After the zombie was injured, not only did it not retreat, but it aroused its ferocity, only to see it raise its head to the sky and roar, and a cloud of black mist erupted from its mouth, which was filled with a rancid smell, and it was all composed of a hideous black worm.
Liang Cheng was afraid that Zuoqiu Suqing would lose, so of course he flew over to support at the first time. Before the person arrived, he saw a small blue and white porcelain plate appear in his hand, and a light red flame erupted from it, which was full of life, and suddenly enveloped all these black insects flying in the air and preparing to pounce on Zuoqiu Suqing.
After the flames released by Liang Cheng encountered these black insects, it was as if pouring hot oil into the fire, and then the fire swelled out, and a large fire that swelled out surrounded the three-headed zombies and the flying little black worms, and burned them until they "squeaked" and screamed, and then saw black smoke rising indiscriminately, and a scorching smell spread around.
Seeing the different fires, Liang Cheng was also very satisfied, he didn't expect to meet monsters in this place, he was a little surprised at first, and then he thought about it, and remembered that after coming to the small world of Chongwu, Zhou Ning, the demon cultivator of the Zuling Kingdom, once said that the predecessors of the big demons of each demon country had added a lot of things to the small world, including these monsters, but I didn't expect to meet such a three-headed zombie here.
However, Liang Cheng had some natural advantages in dealing with these monsters, because he mastered the Wood Spirit Holy Fire, which was full of life breath, and had a natural restraint effect on the things of the Demon Dao.
In order to prevent others from seeing that this was the Wood Spirit Holy Fire, Liang Cheng also deliberately mixed some Red Flame Poisonous Fire into it, so that after the flame was released, it would look pink, which was far from the appearance of the Wood Spirit Holy Fire.
In this way, the disguise effect is more obvious, at least none of the demon cultivators present can see that this is the Wood Spirit Holy Fire, but the kind of life breath emitted by the Wood Spirit Holy Fire cannot be concealed.
Fortunately, the scene is chaotic now, and everyone has not noticed these breaths, not to mention that all living beings will not be disgusted by the breath of life, so they will not pay special attention to it.
However, this breath of life is also the thing that monsters fear the most, for them, the stronger the breath of life, the greater the damage to them like poison, so they are particularly reluctant to be contaminated.
Sure enough, these three zombies were extremely embarrassed by this disguised wood spirit flame, and their bodies were full of flames, and they couldn't be extinguished, and the zombies suddenly lost their fighting spirit and turned around and fled together.
Liang Cheng took back the strange fire, and he didn't want to chase these zombies anymore, because for the demon clan, these monsters were worthless, and they had to chase them endlessly, which was in vain.
As for the other demon cultivators, they won't chase these hard, cold, and smelly zombies.
After letting the three zombies escape. Liang Cheng stood still and didn't move, and after thinking for a while, he asked the monk surnamed Zhang who led the way: "Brother Zhang, how far is the remaining road?"
The monk, surnamed Zhang, said, "There are still about seven or eight miles to go, but that part of the road is particularly difficult. The last time I came, it was more than 500 years ago, and the monsters here were quite weak at that time, so they weren't so difficult to walk. ”
Liang Cheng couldn't help but look at this monk surnamed Zhang when he heard this, he didn't expect this person to be so old, so this person is no longer a young talent of the Wing Spirit Kingdom, in fact, he can already be said to be a bad old man, I don't know how the Wing Spirit Kingdom would send such a person in.
However, the words of the monk surnamed Zhang also dispelled Liang Cheng's doubts, according to the monks of the Zuling Kingdom, five hundred years ago was the time when the various demon kingdoms were trying their best to fish and make this small world of martial arts to the brink of collapse.
At that time, when I came to explore here, the obstacles I naturally encountered were much weaker, but now the situation is very different, the small world of Chongwu has been banned by the powerful people of the demon country to recuperate for five hundred years, such a long time has passed, of course, the monsters here have grown.
In this way, the road behind will be more difficult, if you go down so slowly step by step, not only will it take more time, but once you stay for a long time, there may be a lot of unknown risks.
After all, such a large group of foreign monks were walking on the road, which was a very eye-catching thing. It is very easy to arouse the hostility of the indigenous demons and monsters here.
At that time, if a large number of local demon beasts or some monsters joined forces to attack, I am afraid it would be very difficult to deal with, after all, this improvised demon cultivation treasure exploration team did not have any rear support, once it fought against these local demon beasts, it may suffer a big loss after a long time.
If it is consumed for too long, not only will the team's morale be low, but even if they go to the key places below, I am afraid that they will no longer have the energy to break the ban and deal with the real danger, so that this operation will be useless.
Liang Cheng decided to rush forward in a different way, so that the consumption of the entire team would be minimized, and not waste energy on these inconsequential places.
So Liang Cheng stopped Zuoqiu Suqing and began to discuss with her, because Zuoqiu Suqing can be said to be the leader of the team of the Wing Spirit Kingdom, and on the side of the Foot Spirit Country, it is Liang Cheng who has the final say, as long as the two of them reach any consensus, then it can be implemented immediately, because the result of Liang Cheng and Zuoqiu Suqing is definitely acceptable to everyone.
Liang Cheng said: "Zuoqiu Daoyou, in my opinion, let's slowly consume it like this, it seems a little inefficient, and the consumption along the way is also large, we should think of another way." ”
Zuoqiu Suqing looked at Liang Cheng and asked him, "Is there any good way for Daoist friends now?"
Liang Cheng said: "There is no good way, but there is a stupid way to fight consumption, and the number of these spirit pets fed under it is still relatively large, and it can withstand a certain amount of consumption." I'm willing to do whatever it takes to drive more spirit pets forward and let them get out of the way, so that the speed of the whole team should increase. ”
Zuoqiu Suqing has not yet answered. The monk surnamed Zhang smiled and said, "Haha, how many spirit pets can a fellow Daoist have? I think these spirit pets of yours can only be used as cannon fodder, after all, their level is too low." With all due respect, these spiritual pets of Daoyou are useless. ”
Liang Cheng smiled slightly. didn't explain much, but a golden scepter suddenly appeared in his hand, and Liang Cheng waved the scepter in his hand lightly. Suddenly, nearly a thousand ant demons flashed out of their hideous and terrifying figures.
These ant demons are like an army assembled, with a few sixth-level ant demons as the commanders, and more fifth-level ant demons as generals, and they are connected to each other from end to end, and they are arranged in a very mysterious formation.
The monk surnamed Zhang couldn't help but be taken aback when he suddenly saw so many ant demons appear out of thin air, and then looked around in a daze, and muttered, "Oh my God! This is simply a well-trained army of ant demons!"
Liang Cheng smiled: "How about it, Zhang Daoyou? I mean let these ant soldiers be the vanguard, charging down at the expense of casualties, and our team will follow closely behind, in your opinion, will we be able to reach the destination quickly by doing so?"
The monk surnamed Zhang bowed respectfully to Liang Cheng, and said, "If you retract your previous inappropriate words, how can the ant soldiers of Daoyou be useless! The number of this ant demon army is really amazing!
