The hurricane stopped instantly, revealing the yellow-faced man inside.

Its body stood in place, the ice shield and green shield were gone, and there was a fist-sized transparent hole in the heart of its chest, and the wound was surrounded by a black and charred patch, as if it had been burned by something.

The man looked down at his chest and touched it with his hand, with a look of surprise on his face, as if he still didn't believe it.

But at this moment, the jet-black spear "lath", once again turned into a black oppressive flying ant colony, unceremoniously surged towards the man, threw him to the ground, and instantly covered his whole body.

The man screamed only a few times on the ground, and then there was no sound.

After a few moments, the colony suddenly flew into the air, returned to its original place and landed, and became as indistinguishable as the grains of sand again.

And the place where the man fell was empty, devoured by the ant colony.

This scene was clearly seen by Han Li, who was standing far away at the top of the mountain, from beginning to end.

While he was shocked in his heart, Han Li's expression became a little strange.

"Iron fire ants! I really didn't expect to see this kind of spirit insect here. Han Li said in a low voice that only he could hear.

When this flying ant first appeared, Han Li had not yet recognized the origin of these black flying insects.

But when they were not afraid of the yellow-faced monk's flying knife magic weapon attack, and finally condensed into a spear, he recognized these "iron fire ants".

After all, there are not a few flying ant spirit insects in the immortal cultivation world, and their appearance is almost the same. Not a monk who specializes in insect repellent, most people can't tell the difference.

But in fact, the ability and terrifyingness of different flying ant spirit insects are really worlds apart.

The weak flying ant colony, even a Qi Refining Stage cultivator can easily sweep away with ordinary magic weapons.

The more powerful flying ants, the monks of the Dan stage should also frown when they see it, and retreat three feet to the ground.

And this kind of spirit worm that is listed in the thirty-seventh place on the strange insect list. It's one of the most powerful species of flying ants.

In addition to the legendary "Celestial Crystal Ant", which ranks ninth, it is probably this kind of iron fire ant that is the most terrifying.

Because these flying ants are not only invulnerable, but also not afraid of most spell attacks.

In addition to water and ice spells above the intermediate level and individual spells of other attributes, they can cause damage. They have almost as perverted defenses as the Gold Eaters. And in terms of resisting the direct attack of the magic weapon, it is even better than the gold devouring insect.

Of course, they don't have the perverted ability of gold devouring insects to devour spiritual power, but they also have the terrifying ability to spit black flames and transform in groups.

With these abilities, the Iron Fire Ant Colony, to some extent. It is a fire attribute magic weapon that can change its shape at will. With their terrifying aggressiveness, ordinary defensive magic weapons and defensive spells simply can't stop their full attack. The tragic death of the yellow-faced man is not so wronged!

Although the Iron Fire Ant does not belong to the category of extinct spirit insects like the Gold Devouring Worm, it is also extremely rare to see in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.

And even if someone sees it occasionally, it is at most a colony of hundreds or thousands of ants.

This is because the environment in which the iron fire ants live is extremely harsh.

Not only do you need hot lava fields, but you also need a lot of copper and iron ores nearby to survive. As soon as they leave this environment, the Iron Fire Ant will quickly weaken. It doesn't take long for its special abilities to degrade clean, and become not much like ordinary flying ants.

If that's all there is to it, a monk who wants to drive away this kind of flying ant. There are still a lot of people. Creating a similar environment or directly seeking a similar environment to domesticate insects is nothing compared to the alluring ability of the iron fire ant.

But one of the fatal limitations of these flying ants was that the monks who had attacked them had no choice but to return home.

Whether it is wild or acquired, the iron fire ant cannot even recognize the owner.

As long as someone wants to control them with various confession rituals, the iron fire ants will explode one after another, and they have no intention of making exceptions.

This made the dreams of the monks come to naught!

As for the specific reasons, there are many theories. Some say that this is because of the fierce personality of this kind of flying ant and its reluctance to be driven by others. Others say. This has something to do with the physique of the iron fire ants, etc......

Of course, these materials about iron fire ants are rarely known, whether they are in the Tiannan region or in the Chaotic Star Sea.

Because in the past 1,000 years, few people have encountered iron fire ants, and the size of the ant colony is getting smaller and smaller. It's a near-extinct spirit worm!

At this time, Han Li looked at the black desert, thinking about the information of the Iron Fire Ant in his mind, and he was a little dazed in place.

It seems that the Iron Fire Ant is a natural trap for the Black Desert.

Although I don't know how many flying ant colonies like the one just now are at the bottom of the desert, judging from the fact that the yellow-faced monk has just entered the desert and encountered a group of them, the entire black desert ant colony will definitely not be lacking.

Maybe tens of thousands of super-large ant colonies. It may also exist.

Thinking of this, even Han Li felt a chill rise from his back.

He hurriedly swept through the several storage bags on his body with his divine sense.

There are more than a dozen mid-level ice attribute and water attribute talismans, which should be able to deal with two or three groups of iron fire ants of the size just now.

But with these talismans, you want to cross the entire desert, which is completely wishful thinking!

However, when Han Li's gaze landed on the several spirit beast bags containing the Gold Devouring Worms, his heart couldn't help but move.

I wonder if using gold devouring insects to deal with iron fire ants has a miraculous effect?

After all, the ranking of the gold eater is above the "iron fire ant", and there are many of them.

Looking at the color of the shells of these iron fire ants, they have not evolved to the legendary "black gold" stage. He is supposed to be in the same semi-mature stage as his Gold Eater.

And so it goes. You can give it a try with the Gold Eater.

As soon as this thought was born in Han Li's heart, it was irrepressibly uplifted.

He reluctantly held his mind, thought about it again for a while, and felt that there was no problem, so he decided to try it with the iron fire ant colony just now.

Even if the Gold Eater can't deal with them. He still has those mid-level talismans. You can also leave the desert unhindered.

As a result, after Han Li's face turned cold, the person rushed down from the top of the mountain. Head straight for the Black Desert.

After a moment's effort, Han Li stood at the edge of the desert and stopped.

He looked at the black sand on the ground, but his eyes narrowed slightly.

Suddenly bending down, he grabbed a handful of black sand grains from the ground, lowered his eyelids and looked at them carefully.

After a moment, Han Li snorted coldly, and suddenly a yellow light flashed, and his five fingers closed vigorously, and then slowly let go.

As a result, most of the sand in the palms of the hands were flattened, and few of them were crushed.

"What a black desert, it turned out to be some black iron-containing ore grains. There was a hint of self-deprecation at the corner of Han Li's mouth, and he slowly muttered to himself.

"However, it is possible to spread iron ore grains into such a vast desert-like terrain. The master of the Void Heaven Hall back then was really a great masterpiece. After thinking about it, Han Li sighed a little with emotion.

When he threw the thing in his hand, the man stood up again, but his brow furrowed. Then he patted the spirit rhino on his waist lightly, and a white light mask appeared on his body.

Just now, because of avoiding the yellow-faced monk, he had to turn off the fire-fighting effect of the jade pendant, and he relied on his cultivation to survive until now.

Now that he was just approaching this black desert, the heat wave that came to his face made him dizzy and dizzy in a short period of time, which made Han Li feel startled in his heart, and he hurriedly re-used the Spirit Rhino Match.

This is not the time to save mana.

Han Li didn't hesitate any longer, looked at the place where the iron fire ant colony was, and walked over cautiously.

Walking around in this black desert is really unbearable, the scorching sand under your feet, and the surrounding air is like burning air. Even with the simultaneous use of the Spirit Rhino Match and the Fire Fighting Treasure Suit, it still made Han Li feel like he was going to suffocate. It seemed to be three points hotter than the lava path he had passed yesterday.

After only walking a distance of more than thirty zhang, Han Li sighed, reached into the storage bag and touched it, and a warm bead appeared in his hand.

Without hesitation, he injected some spiritual power into it, and the white light flashed, and a cold aura emanated from the bead.

Han Li suddenly felt a chill rise around him, and his spirit couldn't help but perk. Immediately quickened the pace.

Using both the Spirit Rhino and the Ice Bead at the same time has greatly increased his mana consumption, and he must pass through this desert as soon as possible.

When Han Li was still fifty or sixty zhang away from the land of the "Iron Fire Ant" colony, he stopped. Took a closer look at the place.

After a long moment, Han Li shook his head lightly.

It is extremely difficult to distinguish between the dormant colony of "iron fire ants" and the nearby black sand grains. Even though he had probed the past with his divine sense, it was still not easy to discern their existence. The aura fluctuations on the ant colony's body are as if they are absent, as if they were born with a very clever breathing technique.

It seems that if you want to use your divine sense to open up, the method of avoiding ant colonies far away will not work, so you can only use the gold devouring worm to try.
