Chapter 690 Ancient Insect Cultivator's Cave

In the blink of an eye, dense white insects approached.

Xu He looked carefully and found that these white insects were not just one kind, but multiple species.

Some insects had wings on their backs and needle-like mouthparts on their heads, like mosquitoes; some were like mantises, with multiple pairs of blades on their forelimbs; some had tail stingers on their buttocks, like wasps.

No matter what species, they were all milky white, similar to spirit stones.

Xu He waved his hand, and a large group of soul-eating ants appeared, turning into a tornado, and collided head-on with the swarm of insects in front.

Compared with the white swarm, Xu He's soul-eating ant swarm was pitifully small, like a stream facing the sea.

But at the moment when the two came into contact, the large group of white insects was swallowed by the storm, like moths to a flame, and could not rush in at all.

"It is true that these insects cannot compete with the soul-eating ants that can deal with the spirit-transforming stage." Xu Hei said in darkness.

The opponent's number is huge, but with quantity but no quality, it is impossible to break the defense of the soul-eating ants.

On the other hand, the soul-eating ants can devour a large area with just one suck, but they have no reaction when attacked. Gradually, the soul-eating ants' abdomens swelled up, like mosquitoes after sucking blood.

They can't finish eating, they can't finish eating at all!

However, Xu Hei found something unusual. The attacks of these white insects are quite methodical, sometimes they transform into flying swords, sometimes they gather into shields, and sometimes they turn into animal heads.

Xu Hei quickly spread his spiritual sense to see if there are masters controlling them in secret, but he found nothing, just like the instinct of insects.

This surprised Xu Hei greatly.

However, the white insects are just simple phantoms, which look intimidating, but in fact they are useless. They dispersed after a rush, so Xu Hei didn't investigate further.

Not long after, the soul-eating ants released by Xu Hei had eaten and drunk enough, and expanded into a ball, and even their swallowing slowed down.

There are too many of them.

"Retreat first."

Xu Hei put away the soul-eating ants, retreated quickly, and fled into the distance.

From afar, they could see an endless white storm sweeping towards them at the location of the spirit vein, and they could not count how many spirit insects there were.

Can you count how many grains of sand there are in the desert?

In Xu Hei's consciousness, these white spirit insects were like sand in the desert.

Xu Hei teleported and disappeared in the blink of an eye, and these insects, after losing their target, returned to the spirit vein one after another and calmed down.

…………

Thirty thousand miles away, somewhere in an open space underground.

Xu Hei stopped and probed into the Insect King Ring with his consciousness.

After swallowing, the spirit-eating ants fell into a deep sleep, and their bodies were slowly changing. This was a situation that the devouring monks had never encountered before.

"These insects are great tonics, I will not let them go." Xu Hei said in darkness.

He planned to wait until the spirit-eating ants had digested them, and then swallow them until they were all gone.

After waiting for about two days, most of the spirit-eating ants woke up, and only dozens of them were still in a sleeping state.

Xu Hei returned to the location of the spiritual vein and broke into the forbidden area.

As expected, the army of white insects rushed over again, and Xu Hei also used the Soul-Eating Ants to fight against them.

After the Soul-Eating Ants were full, Xu Hei quickly left and stopped pestering them.

After the Soul-Eating Ants had finished digesting, Xu Hei returned again to devour the insect swarm.

In this way, over and over again, it lasted for half a month.

The insect swarm on the surface of the spiritual vein shrank visibly. Even if there were hundreds of millions of insects, they could not withstand Xu Hei's consumption.

And the remaining insects, relying on Xu Hei's own spiritual pressure, could not get close to him at all.

At this moment, most of the Soul-Eating Ants in the Insect King Ring were asleep.

Every time they devoured, more Soul-Eating Ants fell asleep. According to Bai Zhi, this was a mutation.

The Soul-Eating Ants after the mutation may give birth to all kinds of incredible abilities.

And this time, Xu Hei shook off the insect swarm and drove straight in. After sweeping with his spiritual consciousness, he successfully discovered the Queen Mother hidden in the spiritual vein.

This mother queen has not yet been born with intelligence, but is just a fat worm with a mountain of eggs at its tail. It hides in the spirit vein and grows by absorbing spiritual energy. Once hatched, it will drill out of the spirit vein and attach to the surface.

Xu Hei drilled into the spirit vein and took away all the eggs. The mother queen also put it into the insect king ring and handed it to Bai Zhi for processing.

Afterwards, Xu Hei followed the spirit vein and explored all the way. He found five similar mother queens and took them all away.

"These insect kings of different shapes cannot appear here for no reason. Someone must have brought them here." Xu Hei fell into thought.

This high-grade spirit vein has been consumed for countless years. The remaining part, after cutting, should be able to produce many high-grade spirit stones.

But for the gods, high-grade spirit stones are no longer of much use.

Afterwards, notify the God Puppet Sect and let them send people to dig.

Xu Hei continued to search in the spirit vein. Soon, he came to the head of the spirit vein, which was similar to the position of the dragon head.

The spiritual energy here is obviously richer than other places.

"Hmm?"

Xu Hei stopped and stared at the front. He found that his spiritual sense could not penetrate the area in front, as if there was an invisible barrier that isolated the space.

Finally found it!

If it is as expected, this should be the hiding place of the insect master, but after so many years, the other party should have fallen long ago.

Xu Hei did not take it lightly. He took out the spider silk soft armor and put it on. At the same time, he spread the Night Demon Sky Wings to hide his breath to the lowest level. Then, he walked forward and stopped in front of the barrier.

Xu Hei took out the Star Moon Sword and slashed forward, creating a gap in the space.

Suddenly, a strong wind gushed out from it, which should have triggered some kind of restriction.

However, this restriction had been set up for too long, and its power was obviously not as strong as the peak. Xu Hei had been prepared, and the Rock Crystal Guardian was activated, and it was easily blocked.

"The power of this strong wind must be owned by a Divine Transformation cultivator." Xu Hei said in darkness.

Fortunately, he was also a Divine Transformation cultivator. If he had only come here in the Nascent Soul stage, he would have suffered a great loss.

Xu Hei entered the gap in the space, and the scenery in front of him changed rapidly. He came to a sealed stone chamber.

In the middle of the stone chamber, a pale golden human skeleton was sitting cross-legged, which was similar to the corpse of Huangfu Duanlong back then, but the cultivation was obviously higher.

But at the same time, the age of this corpse was also older, and there was no obsession in the empty eye sockets. Obviously, this senior had completely passed away and entered reincarnation, if there was reincarnation.

After Xu Hei looked around, his consciousness locked onto the three ribs of this person. He raised his hand and the ribs flew over and fell into Xu Hei's hands.

In the first rib, a lot of information came into Xu Hei's mind.

Among them, a complex and changeable technique was recorded.

"Heavenly Silkworm Sutra." Xu Hei's eyes flashed, and he thought to himself, "This should be a method for insect cultivation, which can control insect swarms, but the grade seems not as good as the Heavenly Demon Technique."
