Soon, Tang Huan's guess seemed to have turned into reality.
The two heavenly beasts were approaching rapidly, and the ground was shaking more and more. For a being of that level of strength, the distance of a thousand miles was only fleeting.
No more hesitation!
Tang Huan thought to himself and made a decision immediately.
Almost an instant later, Tang Huan gathered his breath and shot forward like lightning. In just one or two breaths, Tang Huan caught up with a giant ant at the peak of the ninth rank of Tianhou.
The giant ant was running with all its strength, and Tang Huan didn't leak any breath, so it didn't notice it at all.
However, an ant very close to it saw Tang Huan following behind it, waving its two tentacles wildly, as if to remind its companions.
The giant ant was frightened and subconsciously turned his head to look, but there was not even a shadow of a ghost behind him.
As soon as he looked at his companion with some doubts, the giant ant felt that his back seemed to become a little heavier. He turned around and looked again, and found that his back was still empty. This made him confused, a little frightened, and suddenly he became even crazier. The ground fled forward, as did its companion beside it.
Obviously, it was shocked by Tang Huan's sudden disappearance.
Of course, Tang Huan couldn't really disappear out of thin air. The moment he caught up with the giant ant, Tang Huan immediately used his magical power "Tian Yin", then jumped up and landed on the ant's back, treating it as his own 's mount.
The reason why I chose to act with the ant colony is very simple.
Compared with Tang Huan, who has just arrived, these giant ants are obviously local snakes in the "Tianyu Dragon Palace". Such a huge ant colony has been able to survive to this day, and there are also six king-level experts such as the ant king. It is unimaginable that it has encountered such a dangerous situation.
Follow them and you might be able to find shelter.
"Boom—"
Loud noises came one after another, as if the sky and the earth were shattering. The distance between the two fighting beasts behind them was getting closer and closer. After a while, they were less than 500 miles away from the ant colony.
At this time, Tang Huan could even faintly feel the sweeping energy fluctuations.
Four hundred miles, three hundred miles... one hundred miles...
The speed of the sky beast's approach is still accelerating, and there is also a tense atmosphere lingering among the fleeing ants.
Tang Huan frowned slightly, was he wrong in his judgment? This ant colony is just running away aimlessly. They have no so-called refuge at all
"Zila—"
At this moment, a sharp and harsh sound suddenly came.
Within Tang Huan's sensing range, the giant ants scattered across the vast area began to adjust their directions and converge towards the ant king at the front.
The next moment, Tang Huan discovered that the aura of the ant king disappeared.
Then, the five heavenly king-level auras also disappeared, and then the auras of the other giant ants also escaped from Tang Huan's induction in large areas.
"It seems... there's something going on!"
This sudden change made Tang Huan's heart move slightly.
The disappearance of giant ants such as the Ant King is definitely not because they have lost their souls, but because they have hid somewhere where their aura can be blocked.
Of course, if you want to avoid being affected by the fierce battle of the beast behind you, it is definitely useless to just block your breath.
The hiding place of the ant colony must be very strong and can withstand strong impact... The ant colony must be convinced of this and avoid it.
Maybe, there is the nest of ant colony.
Tang Huan calmed down and was about to investigate carefully when a circular hole dozens of meters high came into view through the gap between the weeds. With a quick glance, Tang Huan discovered that there seemed to be quite a few such round holes, and the ants in front of them all rushed in without hesitation.
In an instant, the giant ant under Tang Huan also rushed into the cave with him.
This round hole looks like stone but not stone, like jade but not jade. The white luster that is constantly coming out makes the inside of the hole not dark at all, but rather open and bright. Moreover, after entering the hole, it starts to move upward diagonally. When climbing, you don’t have to worry about the water outside pouring into the round hole.
The material that condensed into the cave wall was extremely special. Tang Huan's mind penetrated it like a mud cow entering the sea. No wonder it blocked his senses.
Tang Huan was quite emotional.
The ants moved forward quickly, but after traveling only a few thousand meters, this round hole merged into another round hole. The ants pouring in from the two round holes also gathered together, and then merged into a wider hole. Running fast in the passage. After another few thousand meters, the second convergence occurred, and then the third and fourth times...
The further you move forward, the larger the circular hole passage becomes, and the ant team also becomes larger.
Tang Huan's mind had already followed the passage inward, and he already knew a lot about this area. This aggregation of round holes and ant colonies continued to occur nearby, and after the ninth aggregation, horizontal circular channels began to appear, connecting the remaining channels.
Not only that, but new passages downward and upward began to appear, and the passage where Tang Huan was located began to extend forward flatly.
The emergence of a large number of new passages caused the ant colony, which had become extremely large, to begin to diverge.
This maze-like area is obviously the nest of the ant colony.
Tang Huan has captured the existence of those king ants. They have entered the deepest part of the nest, and they are almost hundreds of miles away from Tang Huan. However, the results of the investigation surprised Tang Huan. In that place, there were more than six king-level ants, but two more.
Of the two new additions, one has the same aura intensity as the King Ant and has also reached the standard of the Median King. Perhaps it is the queen of this ant colony, while the other one is similar to the other five ants. The appearance of the lower heavenly king... The number of heavenly ants should have also increased a lot.
"Huh?"
After a moment, Tang Huan secretly exclaimed in surprise.
The ant carrying him did not go further to meet the king and queen, but instead rushed into an upward circular passage. After extending forward for thousands of meters, this passage split into two. One continued forward, while the other turned a corner and went outward.
There are dozens more ants who made the same choice.
Tang Huan discovered that these giant ants had all reached the level of the ninth-level Tianhou. Excluding the eight Heavenly Kings, they could all be considered the strongest in the ant colony. Tang Huan had a guess that these giant ants might be equivalent to the soldier ants in ordinary ant colonies.
Not long after, another long passage lay in front of us.
Above this passage, there are many holes several meters in diameter neatly arranged. Through the holes, one can clearly see the outside world. (To be continued)
