Zhou Yuan, who returned to the team, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
This encounter was almost unexpected. He first lost his way, and then was besieged by the ant demon. Then he met the ant queen, and during a fierce battle with the ant queen, he found his team by chance.
Until this moment, Zhou Yuan felt a little scared.
That was the Queen Ant in the Dragon Spirit Realm. If you wanted to kill her, you would need not only strong strength, but also the courage to intimidate others.
In fact, when dealing with the ant queen just now, Zhou Yuan could have summoned the snow shadow to deal with it, but the snow shadow was huge and its movement was limited in the ant demon's nest, so it could not be used to its full potential.
Moreover, there are those ant demons that are only the size of a palm. Once they crawl onto the snow shadow, the snow shadow will be eaten completely.
After all, a powerful elephant can sometimes be helpless against an ant.
In the shock of all the warriors, Zhou Yuan walked along the team.
The team is advancing in an orderly manner, which shows that the way forward is feasible and has not been blocked. I just don't know what happened to Fan Changchun and Hong Lie.
Not long after, Zhou Yuan came to the front row of the team.
The leading people, Hong Lie and Fan Changchun, Zeng Miaoyu, Yin Chaonian, Jiang Ziyue and the others were all safe and sound.
The ant demons no longer came in groups to besiege them, and they only encountered individual ant demons along the way, and they could be killed easily.
"Zhou Yuan, you are finally back."
Seeing Zhou Yuan, Hong Lie, Fan Changchun and others who took the lead all looked happy.
Zhou Yuan flew over directly and smiled at each other.
"I didn't expect this kid to come back alive. He's really tough." Yin Chaonian said with an arrogant look on his face and sneered.
Jiang Ziyue also said: "Every time you are lucky, your luck will run out. When the good luck runs out, bad luck will follow."
"Why are you talking?" Hong Lie glanced at the two of them dissatisfied.
"The passages in the ant demon's lair are confusing. Once you get lost, it will be difficult to find the way out. How did you find the team, Zhou Yuan?" Fan Changchun asked with a curious look on his face.
Zeng Miaoyu and Hong Lie also looked at Zhou Yuan.
They were in the front row of the team, and they were in the middle row of the team when part of the nest collapsed just now, so they didn't know about the scene of killing the queen.
Zhou Yuan smiled slightly and simply told everything he had experienced before.
"What? You actually killed a queen ant?" Hong Lie was suddenly shocked.
Zeng Miaoyu also had a gleam of surprise in her beautiful eyes, "No wonder the ant demons have retreated. It turns out that an ant king died."
"Exactly, you are bragging and don't draft a draft. The queen ant at least has the strength of the Dragon Spirit Realm. Just you?" Yin Chaonian's face was filled with ridicule and disbelief.
However, Jiang Ziyue was extremely shocked. She was the only one who understood Zhou Yuan's strength best. If Zhou Yuan killed a queen ant, he had truly killed it. Moreover, she understood that Zhou Yuan was not a braggart.
"All in all, everything is just luck. If an area hadn't collapsed, I wouldn't have been able to find the team." Zhou Yuan said calmly. He didn't even bother to respond to Yin Chaonian's question.
On the contrary, looking at Fan Changchun's slightly pale face, Zhou Yuan asked in shock: "Old Man Fan, you..."
"He was bitten by the ant demon." Zeng Miao said.
Fan Changchun then opened his sleeves, revealing a bloody arm.
There was not much flesh and blood left on the arm, and all that was left was the bones.
"I was crawled by an ant demon at that time. Fortunately, the two of them pulled me out, otherwise my life would have been lost." Fan Changchun sighed: "Fortunately, only my arm was eaten of flesh and blood, and there will still be traces of it in the future.
There is a way to recover.”
Zhou Yuan nodded.
Fan Changchun is a beast control master. Apart from his stronger soul power, his combat power is not high. What really shows his combat power is the spiritual pet he carries with him.
"I have some special healing pills here, take them and use them." Zhou Yuan turned over his hand and handed a porcelain bottle to Fan Changchun.
Fan Changchun's eyes suddenly sparkled, and he accepted it directly without any politeness: "Thank you, little friend."
The team continued to move forward, but there was still endless darkness ahead, with no light at all, which meant that there was still a long way to go before the exit.
Some people lamented that the ant demon nest was so big that it spread thousands of miles underground.
Above the head is the Lingxi Swamp. Although the nest is damp, no water droplets seep through.
On the rock wall, Zhou Yuan found some mucus secreted by the ant demons. He guessed that when the ant demons opened their nests, they would secrete mucus to consolidate and prevent collapse. When these mucus merged with the soil, they would form a solid barrier that could
Resist penetration.
After advancing for half an hour, the team arrived at another huge space.
"Everyone, can you stop and rest for a while?" Suddenly a warrior from behind shouted.
Zhou Yuan and others looked back, then looked at each other and stopped.
As soon as they stopped, the team behind them had no choice but to stop.
"Then stop and rest for a while. Everyone is recovering from their injuries," Hong Lie said immediately.
Everyone was immediately overjoyed and spread the word to the rear. Everyone stopped.
Along the way, many people were more or less injured. At this moment, they all sat down, swallowed pills and began to adjust their breath.
Fan Changchun took out the elixir that Zhou Yuan had given him before, and after swallowing it, he began to heal his wounds. As the medicine entered his body, his arm finally stopped bleeding, and his body even began to grow, but very slowly.
Zhou Yuan had a previous battle with the Ant Queen and was hit several times. Although the divine thunder barrier withstood most of the impact, he also suffered minor internal injuries.
"Zhou Yuan, along the way, have you ever seen the strongest among the twelve forces?"
After healing his wounds, Fan Changchun raised his head and said to Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan shook his head, "I haven't seen it."
"Yeah, I'm also puzzled. It's not that the twelve strong men are secretly helping us block most of the ant demons so that we can pass safely, but why do we still encounter so many ant demons, and even some ant demons?
Father? Why does Zhou Yuan still meet the Ant King?" Hong Lie was also puzzled, "I feel that our one hundred thousand spiritual stones are not worth it."
"Could it be that they took the money but didn't do anything?" Zeng Miaoyu asked.
"Hey, I said you should rest when you need to rest, and heal when you need to heal. What are you speculating about? I, the sect leader of the Yanzhao Sect, am not someone who takes money and does nothing." Yin Chaonian said with a dissatisfied look on his face.
Zhou Yuan's expression moved slightly and he looked at Jiang Ziyue, "Your Feng Mo Sect's supreme elder, Feng Quanzi, seems to be one of the twelve strong men. You should know some details, right?"
Jiang Ziyue's heart sank, and she quickly shook her head and said: "Don't ask me, I don't know where the twelve strong men are now?"
"Really?" Zhou Yuan stared at her with suspicion in his eyes.
Ever since he arrived at Feng Mo Sect, Zhou Yuan had become suspicious. He always felt that Feng Quanzi and Jiang Ziyue were planning something, but he couldn't find any evidence to prove it.
When Jiang Ziyue was looked at by Zhou Yuan like this, her eyes immediately averted, she snorted and walked away.
This detail was clearly captured by Zhou Yuan. His eyes narrowed slightly and he became more and more alert.
Jiang Ziyue must know something, and Yin Chaonian also blindly defended his sect leader. He obviously had something on his mind, but he couldn't get the answer just by asking. Zhou Yuan didn't say much, just looked at it.
Xiang Fan Changchun and Hong Lie et al.
"We should all be careful, otherwise we may really fall into a trap."
"Well, it's a good thing to be cautious."
Several people nodded.
Another half hour passed like this. After everyone had finished healing their injuries, they all stood up and began to continue walking along the passage.
There were no more attacks from the demon ants along the way. After about half a day of progress, the passage suddenly appeared uphill, and some light appeared faintly above the ramp.
This made everyone's eyes brighten.
"Are you about to walk out?"
"Great, we will arrive at the ruins soon."
Everyone became excited and their pace could not help but become much faster.
"There is light ahead, which means we are not far from the exit. Let's walk faster. This dark lair is really depressing." Fan Changchun said with a smile.
Zhou Yuan and Hong Lie both nodded slightly, quickened their pace and continued moving forward.
As they got closer, there was more and more light, accompanied by a light breeze, which was in sharp contrast with the rotten smell in the nest, which showed that everyone had really walked out of the nest.
Sure enough, after a while, a huge hole appeared in front of it, and everyone immediately ran out like crazy.
Zhou Yuan and others were all in the front row, so they naturally walked out quickly.
Breathing the fresh air makes your whole body feel comfortable.
Immediately, Zhou Yuan discovered that he was in a canyon. In front of him were mountains and rivers, ravines and ravines, a bare area, and in the farthest distance, there were several cliffs rising into the sky.
Looking at the shape of the mountain peak, it seems to be a huge volcano.
The exit that everyone came out of was an ordinary cave in the canyon. There were many similar caves around, all of which were obviously dug out by the ant demon.
"Don't walk around. Everyone, go along the mountain road. As long as you pass the volcano, you will find the ruins."
At this time, someone suddenly shouted.
Everyone looked at it with shocked expressions. The warriors from the twelve forces actually appeared again at this time.
When facing the ant demon's attack before, none of these warriors came to help. Even after the chaos, they disappeared, as if they disappeared out of thin air.
At this moment, when everyone walked out, they appeared one after another.
Despite this, no one dared to question them. After all, they were all strong in the Dragon Spirit Realm. If they dared to clamor, they would be dead.
"After passing the volcano, is it really where the ruins are?" Zhou Yuan looked at the Dragon Spirit Realm warrior who was walking over and asked.
Others didn't dare to question, but he did.
Moreover, Zhou Yuan was already suspicious. If he didn't ask for more information, he might have been counting the money for the other party after being sold.
"Of course, you all handed over the spirit stones, can I lie to you?" The Dragon Spirit Realm warrior looked a little annoyed.
"Since we know that we handed over the spirit stone, why did the ant demon attack before?" Zhou Yuan asked without fear at all and looked like he wouldn't give up.
"Why do you have so many problems? We can open a passage for you and let you enter the ruins to listen to the emperor's lectures. You should thank us. Besides, we all said before coming here that even though the strong ones among the twelve forces have opened up the ant
This road to the Demon's Nest does not mean it is absolutely safe."
"And you have all seen that the ant demon's nest extends in all directions. There are roads everywhere. If you are not careful, you will get lost. We, the strong ones among the twelve forces, cannot do everything. Naturally, there are places where those ants fall.
The devil crawled out from an unknown area, this is all unexpected, who would have thought of it?"
"Also, if we hadn't sprinkled stone powder on the road, would you have been able to get out so quickly?"
The dragon spirit realm warrior looked arrogant, as if he had already thought of an excuse. As soon as he spoke his words, he was immediately convinced by many people.
However, Zhou Yuan would not believe it so easily. He looked at the other party and sneered: "I hope so."
After saying that, Zhou Yuan flew directly into the sky to observe the surrounding terrain.
"Zhou Yuan, don't fly too high, be careful of those birds." Fan Changchun shouted with a worried look on his face.
Zhou Yuan nodded and then looked towards the volcano.
It was a bare place with no greenery at all, and there were endless mountains and valleys with no end in sight. However, on the other side of the volcano, there seemed to be a thick fog that shrouded the area in a very large area.
"That should be where the ruins are." Zhou Yuan glanced at the fog and murmured.
Immediately, Zhou Yuan turned around and looked behind the volcano. The environment behind was very different from the front. There was a green field behind and countless pools, which was where Lingxi Swamp was located.
Below the Lingxi Swamp is the ant demon nest they just passed through.
At the same time, there were various calls coming from the distance from time to time. Zhou Yuan raised his eyes and saw that in the sky above the Lingxi swamp, there were large numbers of birds circling in the air, waiting for opportunities to catch fish in the water.
The number of birds was so large that it could be described as covering the sky and the sun.
They are huge in size and dominate the airspace. If any warriors fly over the high school, they will definitely be surrounded by them.
Under the swamp, it was calm one moment, but the next moment, a big bird flew down, as if it was going to catch fish, but was swallowed by the huge creature that suddenly appeared. The scene was extremely shocking.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Yuan immediately fell down.
Even he would not dare to cross this territory easily.
