Chapter 1887: 1887

“How is this possible?!” raged Di Feng . The Heaven Devouring Ants were known for being impossible to be turned into housepets . They lacked any intelligence and couldn’t follow orders .

However, Mo Nian seemed to have victory in his grasp . Adding on the fact that the Heaven Devouring Ants were biting him, Di Feng was shocked and infuriated .

Although the Heaven Devouring Ants weren’t all that dangerous for him, as time passed, they could exhaust his spiritual yuan .

Even someone as powerful as Di Feng couldn’t allow the Heaven Devouring Ants to bite him . Now that the sky was filled with them, he felt a chill .

The truth was that these Heaven Devouring Ants weren’t biting Mo Nian because their intelligence was too low . Their instincts led them to their priority targets, and before those targets were eliminated, they wouldn’t attack others .

When Di Feng had smashed apart the stone tablet at the entrance to this tomb, the stone tablet had been hiding the crushed corpses of some Heaven Devouring Ants .

There was dark liquid within the abdomen of the Heaven Devouring Ants, and it was used to summon reinforcements . If one was killed, the killer would be splashed with that liquid, drawing more Heaven Devouring Ants .

Di Feng’s destruction of the stone tablet had caused the corpses of over twenty thousand Heaven Devouring Ants to spread through the air . Mo Nian was also evil and had used a stone tablet that was the same color as the liquid so that it wouldn’t be sensed .

When the flying stone and powder had filled the air, the people had been infected by some of the odor, and the results were seen now .

The reason the Heaven Devouring Ants were called a variant species was because they possessed completely incomprehensible techniques . The air of death from so many Heaven Devouring Ants had spread throughout the Yin Yang World . Practically, every Heaven Devouring Ant within the Yin Yang World had come charging over .

This huge underground world was now occupied by them . There was a dark sea covering the sky .

They smelled the odor on these experts’ bodies and viewed them as the murderers who had killed their companions . They began a crazy assault .

Originally, a portion of these experts hadn’t been infected by the odor, but seeing others attack, they followed along, resulting in them being infected by the odor as well . They were all viewed as enemies .

Long Chen, Yue Xiaoqian, and Mo Nian had long since kept up a domain to block that odor . Even if some brainless Heaven Devouring Ants attacked them, they would only push them aside instead of killing them .

“I, Mo Nian, am the god of these Heaven Devouring Ants . They are my troops . Tell me, who is qualified to compete with me? Hmph, things that are impossible for others can be done in passing by me . Just patiently await your deaths . You’ll all die to my army of Heaven Devouring Ants!”

Mo Nian’s voice resounded through the air, but people couldn’t see where he was . There were too many Heaven Devouring Ants . They were like a flood, and they had no idea where Mo Nian was .

However, his words terrified them . The endless Heaven Devouring Ants were like black fiends . People were dying with each passing moment .

“Form up! Get in a formation! Don’t fight alone!” roared Di Feng .

True Immortal Jiaoqi and Gui Can had also noticed that things were off . The Heaven Devouring Ants might not be able to threaten them for now, but they were fatal to others .

The three of them joined into a battle formation, protecting everyone . They combined their forces, managing to block the Heaven Devouring Ants . As long as they had enough time, they could annihilate these Heaven Devouring Ants .

That plan sounded nice, but it was an overestimation of their abilities . These three thousand experts came from different powers, having no experience cooperating with each other . As long as a single person didn’t match the others, it would leave an opening in their defenses . Quite a few people were still being killed .

The reason the Dragonblood Legion was called the world’s strongest legion wasn’t because of their individual fighting skills, but that their cooperation had reached a perfect level .

As for these people, they might be powerful Empyreans, but they were also prideful heavenly geniuses .

When it came to cooperation, they were a wild rabble . A single mistake in their cooperation resulted in death . They began to fight for themselves again . At the very least, that would protect their own lives . They didn’t want to trust their lives to others .

The Heaven Devouring Ants continued charging toward them in an endless tide . Each time they charged, they would reap a few lives . These experts couldn’t change their ultimate fate .

“How is this possible?! No, it’s impossible! This is a nightmare! Tell me that this isn’t real!”

The sight of this tide was a blow to the mental states of these experts . The Heaven Devouring Ants were reaping their lives, while they could only crazily defend . No matter how they fought, it seemed they were only winning a few more seconds of life .

“It’s useless . Struggling is futile . Just give up . Remember the name of Mo Nian . When the Yama King asks you how you died, you can say my name . Speaking of which, you also need to remember an awesome verse: Ten years I wandered with my bow, my arrows causing heaven and earth to shake . The nine heavens, ten lands, and all the universe will revolve around me . Only I, Mo Nian, will rise to glory . ”

Mo Nian’s voice once more resounded through the air . It came from every direction . It was like the mocking of a devil, infuriating them while also making them feel despair .

Long Chen, Yue Xiaoqian, and Mo Nian looked into the distance where a black sea covered the battlefield . Mo Nian’s mocking shout left Long Chen speechless . This fellow was the truly evil one .

Yue Xiaoqian looked backward at the entrance to the tomb . There was still a stream of Heaven Devouring Ants coming from there .

“These Heaven Devouring Ants are absolutely terrifying . Long Chen, you’re a genius!” praised Yue Xiaoqian .

“Ah, it was just a lucky spark of brilliance . I didn’t really think it would come to anything . I also didn’t expect them to be so terrifying . It looks like all the Yin Yang World’s Heaven Devouring Ants have been drawn over . No wonder Evilmoon didn’t want me to provoke them . ” Even Long Chen was amazed .

When he had first entered the Yin Yang World and been chased down by the Heaven Devouring Ants, he had been provoked and almost killed them . If he had done that, he really would have been doomed . He would have faced the hunt of all the Heaven Devouring Ants in this world . Looking at this sea of ants, he thanked his luck that he had listened to Evilmoon’s suggestion . Yes, being obedient was good .

BOOM! Suddenly, the sea of Heaven Devouring Ants surged and shook .

“It seems True Immortal Jiaoqi and the others are finally going all-out . ” Long Chen glanced back to the entrance . The stream of Heaven Devouring Ants was starting to shrink . It seemed that all of the Heaven Devouring Ants in the Yin Yang World had already arrived . “Let’s go . We’ll seal the exit . ”

The three of them flew over . As expected, the Heaven Devouring Ants just flew past them . They completely ignored the three of them .

They clearly had some special communication method and knew that the Heaven Devouring Ants up ahead were in danger, so they were rushing to assist .

As for Long Chen, Mo Nian, and Yue Xiaoqian, they weren’t infected with any of the odor of the Heaven Devouring Ants, so they were naturally ignored .

The three of them left . Now, the experts within the sea of Heaven Devouring Ants were in hell on earth .

Even Di Feng, True Immortal Jiaoqi, and Gui Can could not prevent their people from being slain one by one .

The endless horde of Heaven Devouring Ants caused despair . Even as they killed as many of them as they could, they couldn’t see their numbers drop . Their corpses had piled into mountains, but they still filled the sky . These experts couldn’t see the slightest hope .

At first, there were over three thousand experts, but in just half an incense stick’s worth of time, over a thousand of them had been killed . If this continued, they would all die .

“We can’t continue like this . There’s too many Heaven Devouring Ants . We have to lead a portion of our elites to break through,” said Di Feng .

“No . I won’t abandon my people,” said True Immortal Jiaoqi frostily .

Gui Can’s expression was gloomy, and he didn’t say anything . It was unknown what he was thinking .

“Up to you . I’m going to lead my people through . Although there might be many deaths, at least some of the stronger ones will live . Staying here will only result in them all dying,” said Di Feng .

His manifestation rumbled . A giant spear pierced through the air .

The Heaven Devouring Ants in the path of that spear were blown to bits, but they still couldn’t see any light . There were even more Heaven Devouring Ants than they had thought .

Seeing this, Gui Can said, “If the three of us don’t work together, the only ones remaining at the end will be the three of us . ”

Clearly, Gui Can agreed with Di Feng’s plan . There were too many Heaven Devouring Ants, and staying here trying to protect everyone would only leave them with corpses .

Most terrifying of all, even they couldn’t endure such a fight for long . They naturally weren’t willing to put their own lives in danger, so they wanted to charge through, creating an opening for at least a portion of the others to get through .

Seeing that the opening that Di Feng had created was filled up in an instant, True Immortal Jiaoqi was filled with rage . He was unwilling . He knew that the Xuan Beast experts were his people, and he was unwilling to abandon them . The Xuan Beasts were actually very united .

“Long Chen, Mo Nian, I will definitely tear the two of you into pieces!” True Immortal Jiaoqi clenched his teeth . He could only helplessly accept this plan .

“Everyone, follow us! Don’t fall behind! We’re going to charge our way through!” shouted Di Feng . He unleashed his powerful paragon art once more, sending a spear through the Heaven Devouring Ants . Only paragon arts were capable of causing significant casualties to this sea of Heaven Devouring Ants . However, paragon arts took up a shocking amount of energy, and even the three of them couldn’t use them lightly .

True Immortal Jiaoqi also roared, using his qilin power to blast his way through . Gui Can repeatedly waved his staff, causing divine light to flow out . The light transformed into sharp swords that pierced through the sky . It was also a paragon art . The three of them forcibly created a huge opening through the Heaven Devouring Ants .

The three of them charged through, and the other experts immediately charged behind them . However, some people were just too slow . They were still flying through the opening when the army of Heaven Devouring Ants converged on them once more, cutting off their single hope .

“No!”

Cries of despair rang out . Those experts knew that they were about to die .
