Land of Miracles Chapter 68: Ant swallowing

The interior of the cave is not dark. On the contrary, after entering the cave, they found that there are passages extending in all directions around them. The passages have various shapes and are obviously not dug out deliberately.

The only thing in common is that the tops of these passages extending in all directions are emitting a green halo, which is no longer the moss when they fell before. In fact, when they descended for about a thousand meters, the moss disappeared. Instead, it is this kind of stone that can glow. That's right, it's a stone. An unknown stone.

According to the four elders, these luminous green stones are, in a sense, the source of the green sea of ​​life. They have a very powerful devouring ability, able to absorb life energy and then precipitate it. So, in a sense, these stones are the sediment of life energy. It took an unknown number of years of evolution before it settled down at the bottom of this green ocean of life.

This kind of stone is called life spar. Another reason why the Shuhai people dare not come down easily is that their own cultivation is all based on absorbing life energy. Once they get here, the surrounding life crystals will quickly swallow up the life energy on their bodies , thus causing their own cultivation to decline, and even their lives are in danger.

Neither Fahua's holy power nor Lange's Yuan power is cultivated from life energy, so naturally there is no such problem. This is also an important reason why the Shuhai tribe seeks foreign aid.

"Let's go!" With the coordinates saved, Fahua and Lange didn't need to search for anything deliberately. The two valued a cave with a wide entrance and walked inside.

The Fourth Elder told them before that they must not rush in, otherwise, if they encounter a large number of such creatures, their lives will be in danger immediately. But how did he know that with the existence of Wushuangzhu, unless Fahua and Lange met someone who could instantly kill them, otherwise, this danger really did not exist.

Based on the strength of the two of them, as long as they are together, relying on the connection of the Wushuang Orb, they are enough to have an eighth-level combat power. If they are prepared, even a tenth-level powerhouse may not necessarily be able to fight. Kill them all.

Entering the passage, the light is obviously stronger, because the life spar above the head has become more and thicker.

"Tell me, if we knock a few yuan down and take it out, this thing should be worth a lot, right?" Lan Ge said with bright eyes.

"Well, knock back." Fahua not only did not raise objections, but also immediately agreed.

Lan Ge said speechlessly: "You are really knocking! You are indeed a money fan." For Fahua's money fans, since he saw the House of Hope, the word money fans has become a compliment.

Fahua said: "The Shuhai tribe didn't say they couldn't knock it. This life spar should contain a lot of life energy, so it should be useful."

Lan Ge shrugged his shoulders, "Let's talk about it later. We are here to carry out the mission. Wait!" Suddenly, he grabbed Fa Hua, and his eyes became sharper instantly.

Lan Ge's spiritual power is very strong, especially after entering the seventh level, this improvement becomes more obvious. As soon as he pulled Fahua, the two hid in the depression on the side of the cave wall, but their eyes looked deep inside.

Under their eyes, a strange creature is climbing on the roof of the cave. It is a creature that looks a bit like an ant. It has claws like crab claws, and a pair of huge mouthparts similar to centipedes.

There are barbs on the front paws, which can firmly grasp the life spar while crawling on the top of the cave, while its mouthparts are constantly gnawing on the life spar.

Its tail is oval, instead of a spike at the end, the entire tail is crystal-like emerald green, and there are faint rays of light inside.

Undoubtedly, they have found the true owner. The one meter long and ant-like existence in front of them is the one that the Shuhai Clan fears!

Shuhai Clan called them swallowing ants, also called life swallowing ants! No one knows how they came from, what kind of reproduction history they have. When the Sea of ​​Trees discovered them by accident, they were already an extremely large group. And this group survived by devouring life spar.

In the early days, because the underground world was a forbidden area for the Shuhai tribe, the Shuhai tribe didn't pay much attention to it. But as time went by, they gradually discovered that the reproduction speed of this life-swallowing ants was really too fast. At the beginning, their traces were only found in an underground crack. In just a hundred years, such cracks began to become more and more, and their footprints were found in more and more places.

What Luying and the others said to Fahua and Lange earlier about the leakage of earth energy is true. And this kind of situation has already appeared in more than a hundred places in the green sea of ​​life.

The reason for the eruption of the earth's energy is because the life spar in that place was eaten up by swallowing ants, and the earth's energy below surged up, and then it rushed out of the ground.

After careful investigation and calculation, the elders of the Shuhai Clan discovered to their horror that if the life-swallowing ants were allowed to continue to devour them like this, then the entire sea of ​​life might sink in at most a thousand years. The ocean of life will also cease to exist. And the Shuhai Clan is naturally in danger of being exterminated, and it will even affect the continuation of the entire Falan Star, the Shenlan Wonderland, as the Fourth Elder said!

After discovering the seriousness of the situation, the Shuhai Clan immediately launched an attack on the Ant Swallowing Clan. However, the underground world was a restricted area for the Shuhai Clan. Some swallow ants, but this kind of consumption is unbearable for the Shuhai tribe.

In that underground world, they can't even display one-tenth of their strength, and they will only become their food when they encounter powerful swallowing ants. In desperation, the Shuhai Clan began to ask for help.

At the beginning, the main targets for help were the two tribes of monsters and spirits in the demon realm. They were stronger and more capable.

However, the green sea of ​​life, a world full of natural treasures, has long been coveted by Yaoyu. Yaoyu is willing to help, but the conditions put forward are naturally extremely harsh. After a few times of cooperation, they indeed suppressed Ant Swallowing to a certain extent, but Yaoyu's appetite was so great that the Shuhai Clan couldn't bear it. What makes them even more resentful is that Yaoyu has deliberately controlled the suppression of swallowing ants, so that swallowing ants are always a threat to the Shuhai tribe, so as to make this kind of cooperation normal, so that Get more materials unique to the Green Sea of ​​Life from the Sea of ​​Trees.

Being angry, the Shuhai tribe could only find another way, so they approached humans.

Although human beings are not particularly powerful, they can be said to be the weakest race among the Seven Seas and Six Regions. Weakness means a reduction in the right to speak, and the Shuhai clan is extremely powerful. This makes the Shuhai tribe occupy a dominant position in the case of cooperation with humans. As long as a certain reward is given, humans are very eager to get their friendship.

Although humans are unlikely to clear the ants in the core area, they still have a certain ability to deal with some ants in the periphery and control the number of ants. After a certain number of cooperations, the Shuhai tribe has established a friendship with humans. To put it bluntly, it is actually because humans are weak and easy to talk.

For human beings, it is equally important to obtain the friendship of the Shuhai tribe. Even if the Shuhai tribe is not as powerful as the monsters and spirits, as long as they are in the area of ​​the green sea of ​​life, even the monsters and spirits are not as powerful. Dare to explore it easily.

The green sea of ​​life is located in the center of the three domains of human beings. In a sense, the Shuhai people are willing to serve as the supporting force of the three domains of human beings, which is very beneficial to the entire human race.

Therefore, the three domains of human beings backed the demon domain, and with the help of the Shuhai clan to hide it, it has indeed become an important force for the Shuhai clan to fight against the ant swallowing.

"Only one!" Lan Ge said affirmatively.

"Try!" Fahua replied in his heart.

Lan Ge smiled, bent down, picked up a stone from the ground, raised his hand, and threw it towards the swallowing ant in the distance.

Ant swallowing is aggressive by nature but low in intelligence. Only the particularly powerful swallowing ants have higher intelligence. Because the Shuhai tribe itself can't go deep into it, so until now, the Shuhai tribe doesn't fully understand the group structure of swallowing ants. Even the strong in the demon domain back then did not go deep into its interior.

According to the estimates of the Shuhai Clan, the total number of swallowing ants may have exceeded one million, which is currently the biggest threat to the Shuhai Clan. And these swallowing ants didn't go to the ground, so the Shuhai tribe had no choice but to do so.

"Crack!" The stone hit the swallowing ant's head accurately. Immediately, Tunyi suddenly raised his head, let out a strange "hee hee" sound, suddenly accelerated, and rushed straight to them, opening and closing his mouthparts, dark and eerie.

It crawled very fast, and a bunch of barbs on its front claws were enough for it to hang on the cave wall, and it quickly approached Fahua and Lange.

Fahua took the initiative to meet him, opened the god-given code, and stood in front of him with a solid golden wisdom shield.

Ant swallowing rushed forward, a pair of front claws went straight to Fahua. Fahua wanted to test the attacking power of the swallowing ant, but he didn't dodge it, and directly used his wisdom shield to meet it.

"Bang!" Fahua resisted the impact with a lunge. Tunyi was hit by the wisdom shield and turned over and fell to the ground, but it immediately rushed up again, with a look of immortality. appearance.

When it collided again, Fahua's body turned slightly, and the wisdom shield in his hand met the front pincers from the side, swallowing ant slipped, but the force was not fully released, but its mouthparts turned around, as it did. It's just a bite on the smart shield.

What surprised Fahua and Lange was that with just one bite, a gap was bitten open in the thick wisdom shield, and there were obvious traces of light green liquid in the gap, and the recovery was slow.
