Chapter 4198: Chaos

that the Eight-Footed Demon Bull Beast had eaten before. It turned out to have a good healing effect on the demon race.>Even within his own barrier, Lu Xiaotian used his deputy primordial spirit to se...Hordes of Corpse Cranes flew in from the depths of the void. Their gaping maws spewed out torrents of corpse-chilling breath, enveloping the swarms of Void Devourer Ants. These ants seemed to shiver from the cold, their swift movements faltering. Some, those with weaker strength or caught most directly by the blast, were shredded apart in the Corpse Crane's chilling winds, dying instantly and becoming mangled limbs scattered across the ground.

...And the ghost crow's body trembled, its sharp feathers, like blades, flew off, weaving through the air and repeatedly severing the Void Devourer Ants.

However, the Hollowfied Ant side was not idle either. At the start of a great war, the number of Hollowfied Ants killed was negligible compared to their vast swarm. As long as the ant nest's vitality remained, these low-level Hollowfied Ants could be constantly hatched. Moreover, the Hollowfied Ants that were hatched in an emergency used special methods to stimulate their life potential, and the combat power they could unleash was extraordinary.

When a large number of Void Devourer Ants emerge from the sub-queen's nest, they form a gigantic ant ball. In mid-air, one can see balls that are tens or even hundreds of meters in diameter rolling around. These are groups of Void Devourer Ants huddled together. Just looking at these dense ant balls is enough to make your scalp tingle, let alone the fact that each ball contains a large number of Void Devourer Ants.

"The ant colony's ability to hatch low-level ghost ants seems to be even stronger than before." Watching his skeleton army being ravaged by the swarm of ants, with skeletons continuously being bitten into bone fragments and scattered everywhere, the Skeleton General couldn't help but feel a sense of foreboding. Up to now, Luo Qian, who was incredibly powerful before, hadn't appeared yet. He didn't know if the other party was absent or had other plans.

Balls of varying sizes rolled in, crashing into the carrion crow, raven, skulls, and skeletal lion ghosts. Within each ball exploded dozens of ghostly ants, their size noticeably larger than other Void Eaters, with blurred gold-black patterns on their backs. These ants were distinctly more ferocious, and they formed a center around these different sized ghosts that erupted from the balls of ants.

“Void-Leaping Ant!” Several top-tier Xuanxian-level ghost creatures, including Yu Zhong, changed their expressions. Although the Void-Leaping Ant in front of them was only at the first stage, a fully mature Void-Leaping Ant could reach the level of a Xuanxian-level ghost creature. A chill ran down Yu Zhong’s spine. These Void-Leaping Ants hadn't yet reached the point where he should be truly wary, after all, their strength was still low. However, the sheer number of Void-Leaping Ants appearing could only mean one thing: Su Qing's ant colony had greatly increased its power after taking over this place, and Su Qing's colony possessed immense growth potential.

“This time, if we can’t take down the Bone Lion Yin Mountain occupied by the Void Devouring Ant colony, you and I will have no chance in the future. If this queen takes revenge, who knows where we’ll have to flee to.” Yu Zhong said in a cold voice.

“Very well, this time we must fight together with all our might. If we cannot defeat the ant swarm, then we will have no choice but to flee.” The skeleton warlord nodded in agreement.

Individual ant bombs exploded in the air one after another. These Crack-Sky Ghost Ants had clearly just advanced from Void-Eater Ghost Ants; their individual strength wasn't particularly strong, but they held immense dominance over the small swarms around them. Overall, the ants' individual strength hadn't increased much compared to the last battle. However, with these Crack-Sky Ghost Ants at the center of combat, the entire swarm's organization—both in offense and defense—had become far more integrated. This significantly boosted the swarm's overall combat effectiveness.

The carrion crows cawed hoarsely, and although the corpse-chilling breath they exhaled froze many ghost ants, their bodies were now crawling with a multitude of them. Under the gnawing of the hollow-eye ghosts ants, they would soon be devoured completely.

Other Fire Crows, Skeletons, and a horde of other ghouls and Ghoul Ants were constantly fighting. Even though Yu Zhong, led by the Skeleton General, tried to organize their ghoul army into a more cohesive battle against the opposing forces, the chaotic melee actually gave those numerous low-level leaders a bigger advantage. Unless they had more troops to throw into the fight.

“If we continue like this, we're afraid we won't get any advantage. The source of these Void Devouring Ants is in those ant nests. As long as we can break through the nests, we can cut off their roots. Otherwise, with the constant hatching of the ant swarms, even if we fight to the end, it will be a miserable victory. It's better to strike sooner rather than later, kill them!”

Yu Zhong and the skeleton general exchanged opinions, then quickly commanded the remaining forces at his disposal to head straight for the ant nest.

However, Yu Zhong also knew that attacking the main nest head-on was too difficult. As the original owner of this place, he naturally had some arrangements. During the process of launching here, in the depths shrouded by a ghostly mist far away, several plumes of smoke rose up, and countless bone lion ghosts emerged from within. The three rabbit holes, these locations were originally secret passages left by Yu Zhong himself to defend against enemy raids when facing strong enemies. In case he was defeated, he could take some confidants with him to retreat through these passages. Such passages were extremely hidden, which inevitably meant that too many troops could not pass through. This method could not directly determine the outcome of the battle, but it would definitely bring Su Qing some trouble and relieve some pressure on her.

Su Qing occupied the Gully Lion Yin Shan not long ago, and hadn't fully realized the location of these passages yet. But once the other party spent a sufficient amount of time here, discovering these passages would only be a matter of time. This opportunity might not be available in the future.

Su Qing's expression changed. The skeletal lion ghost emerging suddenly from behind had indeed disrupted the overall arrangement of the thirteen main and deputy ant nests. More importantly, she still didn't know how many ghost soldiers emerged from behind.

Being attacked from both sides is a major taboo on the battlefield. Under these circumstances, with both sides already engaged in combat, there isn't much time to dwell on regrets. While this sudden turn of events caught Su Qing off guard, for someone who has weathered countless storms like her, this obstacle is far from enough to defeat her. She must eliminate the hidden threat behind her before she can fully focus her attention on her enemies.

Su Qing's face was cold, commanding the main anthill to retract backward. She prepared to personally deal with the enemy behind her before facing off against Yu Zhong, the Skeleton Warrior and the rest of the enemy.

"Sure enough, he withdrew. This is our chance." Yu Zhong let out a sneer and directly pressed all his power onto the

Su Qing glanced back and snorted coldly. Even if she retreated now, with several deputy ant nests blocking the way, the other party wouldn't be able to break in for a short time. However, the deputy ant nests were probably going to suffer heavy losses this time. But thinking of Luo Qian protecting her countless times over the years, and Luo Qian was currently at a critical moment in his assault on the heavenly immortal-level ghost monster, Su Qing absolutely didn't want Yu Zhong, the Skeleton Warrior, and the others to affect Luo Qian's cultivation, no matter the cost.second dantian secret art of the Huoyun Monster.The later one cultivates this second dantian secret art, the greater the price to pay for opening the second dantian, and naturally, the more various sp...
