Immortal Cultivation and Life-Saving Guide

Chapter 171: Fighting (Thanks to Jianling for the tip!)

The queen ant that can give birth to ants that fight with fellow monks must occupy an unusually large area.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is a white mountain of flesh. In the distance, there is a black piece, which is the head of the queen ant.

Some tall and strong ants were carrying the eggs laid by the queen ant, busy but orderly.

These monsters have been breeding in the closed secret realm for an unknown period of time. They have actually crossed the restrictions of the floors and transformed half of the secret realm into an ant nest for them to live in.

Wei Xi, who accidentally broke into the core of the ant nest, gritted his teeth and made way for the passage.

Fortunately, the spiritual liquid in Wei Xi's body had not dried up yet, concealing his breath.

Unlike the cultivator who was suspected to be from the Lei family, he had been besieged by a team of shelled magicians.

Ants are highly socialized. When they sense an invasion, although their little brains can't figure out how the enemy got to the queen, they instinctively divide themselves into a team of soldier ants to kill the enemy.

Qin Feng's pupils trembled when she came out of the passage. Unlike Wei Xi, she was not prepared for unexpected events. She was very shocked when she saw this rare queen ant.

"Let's go!" Wei Xi mouthed a message to Qin Feng, and did not forget to call out to Lian Gou Xie who was about to vomit.

It is not advisable to stay here for long. When the queen ant gets tired, grab a small snack.

Assessing the situation, Wei Xi put on the grease and was about to make a move when he saw Yun Qing running to help the unidentified monk.

Wei Xi's eyebrows were twisted into knots - if he spoke a little slower, things would become more complicated, and no one would be happy.

How could Yun Qing, who had barely controlled the Elephant Domain Beast just now, be of any help? Acting now would either be overestimating one's abilities or letting emotions cloud one's thinking; in any case, the risk of being eliminated was extremely high.

Wei Xi quickly figured it out in his mind: Yun Qing was forced into the team. Although they have some friendship as teammates, they are not that familiar with each other. And she was involved in an assassination just now. She is obviously a big trouble.

Yun Qing naturally tried her best. At the moment, she could not control any spirit beasts, and her value in the team dropped sharply. Now she was already on the fifteenth floor, so it should not be difficult for her to survive until the end of this round.

If they didn't help Yun Qing, they would take the opportunity to slip away, thus getting rid of the trouble and concentrating their energy better.

The only disadvantage is that abandoning teammates directly is unsightly and will especially hurt Ge Cang's feelings. Wei Xi is also trying to get information out of her.

In just a few breaths, Wei Xi coldly weighed the pros and cons and came up with a plan to deal with the situation.

He had to run, but before running, he had to pretend to help Yun Qing in front of everyone, and then after a few moves, he pretended to be defeated and fled.

Just then, Feng Xiaotian emerged from the ant tunnel, and the last audience member of the show arrived.

Wei Xi gave Lian Gouqie a wink, and the latter nodded in understanding.

Taking a deep breath, Wei Xi clutched her dagger and ran to support Yun Qing. She was also very particular about her position, standing between the rest of her teammates and Yun Qing, fearing that others would easily help her.

Seeing teammates coming to support him, Yun Qing breathed a sigh of relief, "This fellow Daoist is in deep trouble, everyone come and help!"

Wei Xi was somewhat dissatisfied, but she had already made up her mind whether to save Yun Qing or not, and Lei's life or death was never within her consideration.

After all, the favor was owed by Yun Qing, not Wei Xi.

Under various restrictions, Wei Xi was defeated in just a few moves. He threw down a sentence "Retreat!" and turned over and ran out.

Otherwise, Wei Xi was unlucky because he never expected that there would be a ghost lingering around.

The disciples of Xiuxiang Sect and Canghai Temple caught up with them, looking like they were determined to fight to the death.

Unlike Wei Xi and the others, these two groups of remnants were soaked in the monster's food jars, stained with spiritual fluid. Once they reached the fifteenth floor, they became sitting ducks, surrounded by an overwhelming number of shell magic micro-attacks.

For a moment, all kinds of spells and magic weapons were flying in the sky, swords and sabers were flashing, and the battle situation was extremely tense.

The combat power of a single shell ant was already quite good, but now the soldier ants guarding the queen ant surrounded it in large numbers, and the situation of the group of less than 20 people suddenly became dangerous.

Sometimes you're not afraid of bad people, you're just afraid of crowds of people. The shells are invisible, not intangible. If you rush over, you'll inevitably discover the "invisible" enemy through contact.

Wei Xi now had nowhere to escape and could only resist while gathering his forces and preparing to break out. As the saying goes, two fists are no match for four hands. The ants outnumbered the monks a hundred times, and this was where the queen ant resided. Although direct sales from the source were currently unavailable, the entire nest of soldier ants would surely rush to support them. The monks' situation was deteriorating.

As soon as Wei Xi approached the ant tunnel, he cast a spell to block the ant tunnel with gravel and soil.

"Quick! Who has a shielding charm? Stop it!"

"Set it on fire! Burn it all!"

"Everyone be careful! Those sharp-horned ones have powerful spiritual energy! Don't go head-on with them!"

At this time, no one cares about sneak attacks to exchange for points. The most important thing is to maintain their own qualification to participate.

Wei Xi remained rational. She paid attention to the numbers on the scoreboards of other teams. After a quick calculation, she knew how many teams these people had killed.

I don’t know if they were just unlucky, but the combined points of the two teams were not as high as Wei Xi and the others.

Wei Xi felt that it was not good. Even if these problems were solved, his team would still be surrounded and attacked.

Not to mention others, the black-faced disciples of the Xiuxiang Sect were difficult to deal with, so Wei Xi had to frantically look for a weak link that could be broken through.

Unfortunately, the ants that came in like a tide did not give Wei Xi enough time.

Following Yun Qing's scream, the monks' team officially suffered a loss of members.

Seeing Yun Qing's head smashed by the soldier ants, Wei Xi couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine even though he knew the other party would not die.

Yun Qing's scream before being eliminated became the beginning of the team's nightmare. The soldier ants that tore through the defense began to split the monks' team, trying to use their absolute advantage in numbers to eliminate these enemies that invaded the ant nest.

Wei Xi was protected by Qin Feng and was safe for the time being. She even had time to think about how these monsters suddenly became smart.

You know, these red monsters were easily fooled by the jars in the tunnel, so how come they now know the trick of dividing and surrounding?

This clever behavior made Wei Xi smell an opportunity: It’s good to have a brain, wouldn’t it be better to crush your brain!
Wei Xi glanced at the battlefield a few times, and suddenly she locked her sights on the mountain of flesh.

Just looking at this mountain of meat, due to its huge size, everyone was shocked at first and just treated it as a background.

After all, the queen ant is so bloated that she has difficulty moving. These soldier ants can only protect her, but it is not her turn to participate in the battle.

However, Wei Xi clearly felt that something was wrong with the queen ant: Why didn't it react at all and was still giving birth?

My dear queen, the little ones have all fallen on your kang, but why don't you try to lift your butt? If you can't lift it yourself, why don't you take the busy worker ants with you to avoid danger?

Wei Xi mentally calculated the score, knowing she had the confidence to take the risk. With a determined heart, she pulled out the life-saving fire-sealing talisman that Senior Sister Xie had given her.

One characteristic of this talisman is that it is difficult to extinguish, and the fire spreads very quickly. Wei Xi plans to do something big.

Wei Xi said "be careful" and went straight to the queen ant from Qin Feng's side. Because he calculated the route well and was good at responding, he actually killed the queen ant.

The queen ant was also panicked now. The spiritual liquid in Wei Xi's body was almost gone after the fierce battle. She could sense that a damn foreign enemy had broken through the encirclement, and the other party was extremely fast. She could only order her people to intercept him.

Since Wei Xi had made his move, he had made an assessment, flashed to the side of the queen ant, and stuck hard to her body.

The talisman immediately caught fire, and the queen ant also gave it face, and the flames covered half of her body in a flash.

The queen ant felt pain and began to roll over, and the surrounding worker ants and soldier ants were also affected. The air was filled with a burning smell.

As the fire spread, the queen ant twisted her body frantically. Wei Xi was caught off guard and was whipped away by her fat tail and fell into the ant colony.

Before falling into coma, Wei Xi smiled triumphantly as he looked at the exit of the secret realm revealed under the queen ant.
