C2283 Ants Nest Restricted Area
He had already used his divine sense to mark the place. Once he finished with the matter of the Universal Soil, he would find time to come back here. Furthermore, he planned to bring Shen Meng and Ling'er down with him. The magma was indeed a very good alchemy flame. It was also a good choice for the two of them.
As for what the magma was, he would have to wait until the next time he came to find out.
Hong Yifeng had clearly finished explaining to everyone, so they did not stop him.
As for Hong Yifeng, after leaving the cave, he appeared very serious. It was obvious that he was very worried about his safety. However, since he had already promised Jiang Fann, he would not give up halfway.
Although he had not interacted with Hong Yifeng for long and did not communicate much, Hong Yifeng was indeed a good young man. Furthermore, he was straightforward and did not conceal anything. The fact that Jiang Fann was willing to help them had a lot to do with his style of doing things.
Seeing him so nervous, he smiled and said, "You don't have to be nervous. It's not you who entered the forbidden area. Bring me to the nearby area and I'll go by myself. If I meet you in the future, I don't mind drinking with you, provided that you can leave safely."
Hong Yifeng said: "This time, the situation of the Black Armored Ant has exceeded my sect's expectations. If it wasn't for Elder Brother Jiang's help, we might have already been thinking of how to escape, let alone being able to come here so easily. It is only right that I help Elder Brother Jiang."
Jiang Fann then took out a piece of Spirit Attached Jade and threw it to him.
"Alright, if you encounter any trouble, you can use this to find me. I will try my best to appear and help you guys safely leave the Ant Nest. It can also be considered as a reward for you helping me save time. If you cannot break out, you can wait for me in the cave. It is not a difficult matter to bring you guys out."
Hong Yifeng caught Jiang Fann's Spirit Attached Jade and expressed his gratitude.
"No matter what others think, I, Hong Yifeng, am willing to make friends with Elder Brother Jiang. After leaving this secret realm, if you need my help in the future, I will definitely do my best."
After saying that, he also took out his own Spirit Attached Jade and gave it to Jiang Fann.
After leaving the safe passageway, the Black Armored Ant once again appeared in the surroundings. The effect of the Ant Avoiding Pill was still very good, and the surrounding Black Armored Ants were unable to discover their existence at all.
However, Jiang Fann observed that the aura released by the surrounding Black Armored Ants seemed to be growing stronger. Although it was very subtle, after carefully sensing it, there were traces to follow.
According to what Hong Yifeng said, they were gradually approaching the vicinity of the forbidden area. It seemed that it was just as he said. There were definitely stronger Black Armored Ants in the forbidden area. As for the number and strength of the Black Armored Ants, they were still unknown.
Hong Yifeng became more careful as he walked. This was also the first time he had come here, and he was completely relying on his senior's trust. As for the map in his hand, he would not give it to Jiang Fann. After all, this was the blood and sweat of his sect's several generations, and he also needed this map to bring his people safely.
As for Jiang Fann, he was not overly nervous. Not to mention his powerful Spiritual Sense, Xiaoyu's power had always been released, and it would help him to sense the danger in advance. This forbidden area might be dangerous, but he was confident in his ability to protect himself. After all, his combat strength had already surpassed the Mortal Separating Stage.
After an hour, Hong Yifeng suddenly stopped.
He looked at Jiang Fann beside him with a solemn expression.
"Elder Brother Jiang, our seniors have left behind a sentence. We will stop here, and we cannot take even half a step further. I can only send you here. If you continue to move forward, you will enter the forbidden area. I don't know what will happen, but I hope that you can do it with your strength."
Jiang Fann nodded, and then without any hesitation, he walked forward, leaving Hong Yifeng with a face full of shock.
He really couldn't understand why Jiang Fann was so determined, and he completely did not consider his worries.
However, he suddenly realized that Jiang Fann, who was not far away, had suddenly disappeared. He could only see it, and the fire mass floating beside him had also disappeared, as if he had stepped into another space. It was extremely strange.
The underground tunnel also fell into darkness. He quickly used the light-emitting spirit treasure to illuminate the surroundings. Then, without any intention of staying where he was, he turned around and prepared to leave.
However, at the instant he turned around, something seemed to crawl towards him from the darkness, emitting a cold light, and its body was huge.
Hong Yifeng felt his heart jump to his throat. It was a front leg that looked like a sickle, emitting a metallic luster, and its sharp point was incomparably sharp.
And this was a huge Black Armored Ant, which was at least three times bigger than the soldier ants from before.
And the aura of the Spiritual Strength that had reached the level of the Mortal Separating Stage had already shocked Hong Yifeng.
More importantly, the Black Armored Ant had already locked onto his existence, and the Ant Avoiding Pill had obviously lost its effect in front of this Black Armored Ant.
Its huge body almost blocked his path, and there was almost no way for him to break out of the encirclement.
Hong Yifeng was not a hesitant person, and there was only one path in front of him. Although the aura of the Black Armored Ant was shocking, it was still a Black Armored Ant after all, and it was not a human expert. He might still have a chance to break through.
The Spiritual Strength instantly covered his entire body, and he used his movement technique.
He lightly tapped his feet, and his entire body quickly rushed towards the other party. He held a long sword in his hand, as if he wanted to fight the Black Armored Ant head on.
The huge Black Armored Ant was also rushing over, and it had no intention of dodging. The man and the ant instantly clashed, and a huge sound erupted.
The Black Armored Ant's front leg collided with the sword, causing a series of sparks to burst out, and the ground shook.
However, the outcome was not as Hong Yifeng had expected. He was struck by a heavy blow and was sent flying. The Black Armored Ant's strength was simply outrageous, not giving him a chance to retaliate at all.
While Hong Yifeng was still in shock, he flew into the area covered by the forbidden area. In the next moment, he disappeared into the passageway, just like Jiang Fann had just done.
After Hong Yifeng regained his senses, he tried to control his body.
He felt that he was falling, but the height was already completely beyond the height of the passageway. After adjusting his body, he looked down and saw a faint light at the bottom. It was the light emitted by some strange ore, showing the situation below.
It was as if something was moving, but because of the height, he could not see it clearly.
However, this was obviously not the passageway from before, as if he had arrived in another underground cavern.
Buzz buzz ~ ~
The sound of wings flapping came from behind. The sound was very loud, and Hong Yifeng did not hesitate at all as he quickly descended a few meters to dodge.
In the next moment, a loud sound passed by his head.
He sweated as he looked up. It was a Black Armored Ant with wings. If he had not dodged quickly, he would have been hit.
Before he could think about it, the sound of flapping wings came again. This time, it was not just one, but from different directions. It was obvious who the target was.
He released the Spiritual Strength in his body to counterattack. After all, it wasn't easy for him to dodge in midair.
However, just as he released his Spiritual Strength, he suddenly felt a strong Spiritual Strength suppressing his Spiritual Strength.
Immediately after, a hand was placed on his shoulder and a voice sounded behind him.
"Return the Spiritual Strength. Don't act recklessly."
He was very familiar with this voice. He had heard it not long ago. It was Jiang Fann, who had disappeared previously.
Although he didn't know why Jiang Fann would say that, there must be a reason for it. Without thinking too much, he decisively retracted his cultivation technique.
Then, he felt himself being forcefully dragged away by Jiang Fann. The flying black beetles did not chase after him.
Jiang Fann's voice sounded again.
"Use this Ant Avoiding Pill first."
When Hong Yifeng saw the Ant Avoiding Pill that Jiang Fann handed over, he immediately thought of something. Previously, Jiang Fann had refined two different Ant Avoiding Pills in front of them. This one was obviously of a higher quality.
With his previous experience, he didn't need to ask any more questions. After replacing the Ant Avoiding Pill, the flying black beetles indeed did not chase after him.
Only then did he heave a sigh of relief. Although the aura of the winged black beetles was not as strong as the one he had encountered in the tunnel, it was still stronger than the ordinary soldier ants. In the air, he was definitely no match for the ants.
"Why did you follow me in? Didn't I tell you to return to the cave first?"
Hearing Jiang Fann's question, Hong Yifeng felt extremely embarrassed.
"You think I want to enter? Just now, there was a Black Armored Ant at the level of the Mortal Separating Stage following us. I was knocked flying by that guy, and I accidentally barged in. What's the situation here?"
Hearing his words, Jiang Fann couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Because he did not sense the Black Armored Ant's aura in the passageway just now. Even Little Yu did not remind him, so it could be seen how good this thing was at concealing its aura.
However, he quickly calmed down. Then, he condensed a fire mass in his hand and released it towards the ground.
The fire mass was very bright, and it slowly descended. It was about ten meters away from the ground, completely illuminating the situation on the ground.
The densely packed Black Armored Ants were constantly moving around here. Many Black Armored Ants were moving things from all directions, and there were no lack of spirit beast corpses among them.
Many Black Armored Ants that were stronger than Soldier Ants were resting on the ground. Among them, there were existences that were similar to the ones in the passageway just now.
This place seemed to be the place where the Black Armored Ants stored food. Looking around, one could see that there were large and small tunnels on the surrounding walls. It was unknown where they led to, but there were Black Armored Ants entering and exiting each tunnel as if they were tireless.
On the walls, some Black Armored Ants with wings were resting. Among them, a few seemed to have sensed the fire released by Jiang Fann, and they directly flew towards the flames. Using their powerful bodies, they broke through the fire mass, and very soon, the fire mass was scattered into sparks, until it was extinguished.
Whenever there was a sound, they would immediately fly up and patrol the area. If Hong Yifeng had retaliated fiercely just now, one could imagine what he would have to face.
Seeing all this, Hong Yifeng felt a chill down his spine. If Jiang Fann had not intervened, he would have probably lost his life. Once he landed on the ground, he would not even have the chance to escape.
