Chapter 165 - First Days Results (1/2)
Qin Feng cleared one hundred meters in a matter of seconds and yet the armored ants remained hot on his tail.
“One more time!”
The power of his consciousness surged, and Hellfire was released once again, drowning the entire surface in fire.
Running from one road to another, Qin Feng had already covered over three hundred meters within a short span of time. The very first release of his Hellfire attack was a result of him losing precise control over his consciousness, which in turn, caused the dispersion of the runes.
Fortunately, the number of remaining ants that was coming after him relentlessly had been consistently whittled away by his attacks!
Even so, it should be kept in mind that these ants were the elites of their colony.
Individually speaking, they were all separate beast generals, out-numbering Qin Feng seven-to-one.
Each of them was around a meter tall, easily reaching the height level of Qin Feng’s thighs. That was however, not the scariest part about these ants. That part would be reserved for the pair of wings sticking out of their backs, allowing them a short flight time which was more than enough to reach Qin Feng if they wished to.
The first armored ant took flight and started closing in on Qin Feng. And yet, as it honed in on its prey, instead of sinking its jaws into Qin Feng’s flesh, it passed right through his body as if he was just a projection.
Of course, it was not his actual body though, it was something close to a projection. What it passed through was Qin Feng’s afterimage.
The speed at which he was moving was so fast that there were afterimages!
“Phantom’s Maze!”
Qin Feng dodged a fatal blow from the beast general.
Boom!
A deafening sound echoed down the streets. The beast general lifted a full-sized sedan that was parked by the road and smashed it into a nearby skyscraper. The sheer force from the impact turned the car into a steel disc, rendering it completely unrecognizable.
Evidently, the beast generals of the armored ants possessed terrifying strength for their size!
Three more beast generals flew toward Qin Feng.
It was time for QIn Feng to unleash his own tricks. With lightning speed, he dashed through the gaps between the three armored ants while unsheathing his saber.
“Blooming Flame!”
White-hot flames spat out from the saber and sparks flew in every direction, resembling a blooming flower during spring.
In a split second, the three beast generals were minced up into stinking chunks.
“Buzz!”
An armored ant flew toward Qin Feng’s position. Due to the inertia it had built up, it was flying at an incredible speed.
Dodging was no longer a viable option; the only thing he could do was to slash his way out of the armored ant’s attack.
Thonk!
As the Verdant Emperor Saber clashed with the armored ant’s hardened exterior, a crisp, hollow sound rang out, followed by a massive jolt of energy that spread up Qin Feng’s arm as a result of the abrupt collision. Still, a fraction of a second later, the beast general’s armor gave way and the saber was able to slice down like a hot knife through butter, splitting it into two equal parts!
Three beast generals out of the original seven had already been taken down by Qin Feng!
Once more, Qin Feng’s ability was released.
“Fire Beam!”
Three jets of flames shot out from Qin Feng’s position, covering the assaulting ants in a layer of smoldering heat. Despite this, virtually none of them were halted in their rush toward their prey!
Qin Feng activated the Phantom Maze, allowing him to escape from their grasp. Then, an almost blinding ray of light flashed from the Verdant Emperor Saber.
“Sky Burning Sword Style!”
A flame spit forth like the devil’s tongue, splitting in half the remaining beast generals at their thoraxes.
Pit pat pit!
The regular blacksteel ants that trailed behind their generals retreated; none of them dared to step up and face Qin Feng in combat.
After suffering a loss of seven beast generals, regardless of how many generals they had left at the colony, they were not willing to lose even one more. These insectoids were masters at preserving their own lives and were biologically programmed to be fearful of places where the smell of death pierced their sensory organs, hence their retreat.
On the other side, Qin Feng felt a huge wave of raw energy from the beast general’s body flow into his own.
As his fleshly strength had already reached F7-tier, it would take a lot more time and effort than before to grow his powers further but at the current rate of his progress, that day should come pretty soon!
Buzz Buzz Buzz!
Qin Feng’s ears picked up a vibration in the air, high up in the sky that could only be caused by the flapping of insect wings. Using his consciousness, he scanned the area above like a radar, only to discover that it was the infamous bloodthirsty beetle.
