389 Chapter 388 Vast Ant Wave (1/2)
All of a sudden, broken shells of ants and a blue colored liquid spilled down from around the spell altar.
Ant Zhenren didn't care at all, chanting out incantations in his mouth. He casually pointed and hundreds of soldier ants rose up into the air. At the sides of their bodies, a pair of wind wings spread out as they flew into the air. Their flying ability was no weaker than those flying ants.
Along with the basic crystal ants that the four-winged flying ants grabbed up to throw down, even that lightning winged flood dragon was unable to fully protect the altar. Tens of crystal ants were missed out of and breached into the sword formation.
Zong Shou had been quietly waiting, only now did he open his eyes, grabbing the paper of the wooden table and heavily smacking it down.
In the next instance, the 2 long banners with lightning and fire wrote on them glowed out.
Numerous lightning and fire light exploded out from around the spell altar, merging with the lightning around of the lightning winged flood dragon, instantly wrapping up thousands of feet around. It caused the nearby area to be covered in fire and lightning.
The buzzing sound in the area instantly quietened down. Even some grade 5 soldier ants weren't able to avoid in time and were either burnt to bits by the lightning glow or were burnt into ashes by the flames, turning into small scattered pieces and falling downwards.
When Ant Zhenren saw that he laughed out, ”Interesting! Only I don't know how long you will be able to last for!”
The moment the voice landed, the tens of thousands of crystal ants started to become uneasy, actually starting to bite and swallow one another. It became a total mess.
Zong Yuan couldn't help but feel surprised, what was this Ant Zhenren doing? It was impossible to say that this person had lost control of the demon fire crystal ants.
Tens of breaths later he saw some of the demon fire crystal ants who had swallowed the blood and meat of their fellow ants suddenly swell. Not only did their body size become larger, their aura even instantly increased. In just tens of breaths, tens of soldier ants formed up. They similarly had wind wings on their backs and flew high in the air. The overall number of soldier ants also recovered to a full 400.
Then Ant Zhenren chanted out incantations and formed hand seals, his body retreating out ten thousand feet, his lips filled with disdain.
”Golden armor copper skin!”
”Intense sharpness…”
”Extreme image technique!”
In just a moment the flying ants and soldier ants who were surrounding the altar were covered in a layer of gold light,
Be it the menacing-looking mouth weapons or the armors, they all seemed to have gotten much sturdier. Compared to Zong Shou's 49 flying leaf knives, when they clashed they were often able to gain the upper hand.
The speed of their bodies also increased by several times, pretty much reaching the peak of the grade 6 realm.
Continuously charging forwards and backward, causing the sword formation surrounding the altar to be in a mess. They relied solely on Zong Yuan's purple lightning sword to remain fine, numerous soldier ants got close to the spell altar.
In a blink of an eye, Ant Zhenren had cast several spells. Each spell added could increase the combat strength of the soldier ants by a little.
Zong Shou's heart sank and thought to himself that this was going to be problematic. If it was a head-on battle, he alone was enough to suppress this Ant Zhenren.
However, this person was experienced—using his strengths to make up for his weaknesses. He used support techniques to strengthen the ant swarm to increase their combat strengths. Often one spell cast would be able to benefit close to a thousand crystal ants.
He even retreated tens of thousands of feet away, obviously unwilling to engage with him head-on.
The combat strength of the lightning winged flood dragon beside him was far from just this. It didn't even use a tenth of its lightning power because the silver-colored soldier ants and six-winged flying ants were thousands of feet outside and still not making a move, waiting for their chance to strike. Hence this lightning flood dragon was unable to display its skills, a large part of its energy was taken up by the guards of the ant empress.
It was why he hated these types of bursts of soldiers. In the past, he had played several strategy games with his friends in the virtual environment and there were ten over times when he was surrounded and murdered by an ocean of enemies.
Sighing to himself, Zong Shou didn't hesitate to toss out several talismans which floated above the candle.
He also chanted out incantations, drawing tens of talismans above the thousand-year peach wood sword.
”Swallow blood”, ”Quiet energy”, ”Ice fire”, ”luck blessing”, ”Destroy illusions”, ”Sharpen metal”...
A few breaths later he opened his eyes suddenly. Within it, there seemed to be several true talismans which shone continuously.
Following which he casually tossed out the peach wood sword from his hand. It reached 300 feet away before the gold light exploded. One wooden sword seemed to have transformed into a top gold weapon. Fire and water energy circling it as just one sword killed one soldier ant.
Then, the peach wood sword pierced through it, it caused that soldier ant to turn into an empty shell, swallowing all of its blood and meat into the sword body.
Following which the energy of the peach wood sword exploded out. Everywhere it passed, it did so with unstoppable sharpness.
