“Miss, what are you doing there? Get out of the way. The Ultimate Enhanced Version of the Exploding Heavens Faction’s Dichlorvos is very strong. Be careful not to be affected!” At that moment, Xu Que’s voice sounded from the sky.
The woman instantly collected herself, and without any hesitation, she made a quick retreat toward the rear.She wasn’t afraid of being hurt by Xu Que’s Dichlorvos, but, if she was a minute slower in her departure, she wouldn’t be able to leave when the Queen Ant appeared.
However, when she had just escaped, she saw Xu Que flying back with a barrel on his back and a pipe connected to it that he held in his hand.
“Fellow cultivator, what are you doing? Run!” The woman cried out in alarm.
She didn’t think that the little amount of Xu Que’s Dichlorvos could overthrow the Queen Ant, who was equivalent to an Earth Celestial!
“Heh, heh, this is a new formula, it’s an enhanced version. The Extreme Enhanced Version of the Exploding Heavens Faction’s Dichlorvos!”
Xu Que grinned, as he held onto the sprayhead of the Dichlorvos, stepped on his Firestorm Wheels, and moved at lightning speed. He swiftly changed his location in the sky as he approached the mountain range. As soon as he sensed its imposing manner, Xu Que knew that the Queen Ant, who was comparable to an Earth Celestial, was a terrible presence! Hence, he enabled his Firestorm Wheels to ensure his own safety. Then he took out his Dichlorvos, ready to launch an attack.
Xu Que’s initial plan was to kill the nest of Vital Ants with his Dichlorvos. But he had given up on that plan. The Vital Ants and Queen Ant weren’t simple—even if his Dichlorvos was exchanged using tens of thousands of Acting Tough Points—it was impossible to kill the Queen Ant. Let alone the Queen Ant, it was hard to kill an ordinary Vital Ant! However, even if he couldn’t kill them, he could make them lose their consciousness temporarily!
Xu Que’s goal was very clear; he only wanted the Vital Rice. He didn’t care about the life and death of those Vital Ants. As long as he could get his Vital Rice, nothing else mattered!
Swoos.h.!.+
In a moment, his Firestorm Wheels returned to where he had previously stood and his Soul Strength was used to the maximum. He was bound and determined as he pushed the Dichlorvos into the small hole that was dug out by his Luo Yang shovel. He pressed the b.u.t.ton immediately!
Following which a hissing sound could be heard and a white mist with a pungent smell suddenly burst out. Xu Que immediately condensed his Taoist Connotation and Soul Strength and mixed them into the white mist, and forcing the white mist into the cave! However, not long after his Soul Strength invaded the ground, it was suddenly blocked by a stronger Soul Strength.
Bang!
With a m.u.f.fled sound, Xu Que’s Soul Strength that had plunged into the ground exploded instantly. He was struck by a huge force; his flesh was instantly covered with wounds and his blood spilled in the air. Xu Que was taken aback by its power. He had estimated the strength of the Queen Ant to the greatest extent. Unexpectedly, that Queen Ant was so ferocious that a single Soul Strength could crush and heavily injure him.
Fortunately, his body was strong enough. If he was replaced by an ordinary cultivator in the Half-Celestial Stage, that person would have exploded into a b.l.o.o.d.y mess!
“It’s too horrible, Earth Celestial Stage…it’s indeed extraordinary!” Xu Que couldn’t help but sigh. He had underestimated the strength of that Cultivation Stage.
Although he had killed some in the Human Celestial Stage, it was always under special circ.u.mstances. Then he met the aces at the Human Celestial Stage from the three academies. However, he had never really battled with them formally. Thus, he didn’t have a good understanding of the strength of those at the Human Celestial Stage. So everything could only be guessed. But now he knew that in face of those aces from a different Cultivation Stage, the power gap between those Cultivation Stages was too huge.
Even if he had Celestial Artifacts, he knew that if he was facing the Queen Ant, he wasn’t on par with her.
But…with Dichlorvos, it would be different!
I’ll knock you out and then rob you under your eyes. What can you do? He thought to himself.
Xu Que smirked, and he quickly enabled the automatic recovery ability of the System. He stepped on his Firestorm Wheels and flew rapidly toward the hole! Just now, though his Soul Strength exploded, it had also destroyed the Soul Barrier set by the Queen Ant. A substantial amount of Dichlorvos must have gone in. Xu Que was sure that the group of Vital Ants, including the Queen Ant, were now in a muddled state. Dichlorvos was their Achilles’ heel.
That was the best time to s.n.a.t.c.h the Vital Rice!
Bang!
Xu Que moved his Dichlorvos and rushed directly into the cave. His Soul Strength condensed into a ball and crazily explored the cave. He quickly found the location of the Vital Rice. He grabbed it all and then quickly retreated.
Hundreds of meters away from the peak, the beautiful female cultivator was astounded. She couldn’t believe it. She watched Xu Que sprayed things at the entrance of the cave. Then he was blown into a b.l.o.o.d.y mess by a single Soul Strength. However, he darted back into the cave with blood all over him. At last, he emerged with a whole pile of Vital Rice and retreated from the cave.
Such a seamless, awesome operation almost blew her mind.
“How…how is that possible?” The woman was so jittery and she couldn’t fathom how Xu Que had accomplished it. It was well-known that even a wisp of Soul Strength from the Queen Ant, who was comparable to an Earth Celestial, was formidable. Over the years, she had seen countless cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage die under the Queen Ant’s Soul Strength before they even started. But Xu Que survived its attack, and he had successfully stolen the Vital Rice. That scene was amazing!
“Miss! Run for your life! The Queen Ant is awake!” At that moment, Xu Que shouted as he stepped on his Firestorm Wheels and appeared in front of her in the blink of an eye.
“Uh?” The woman was in a daze and slowly collected herself.
But the next moment, her vision was blurred. She felt that her hand was grabbed by someone and was pulled by a powerful force and, in the blink of an eye, she flew away dozens of miles. She bolted to the far distance at a terrible speed.
“Fellow cultivator, you…” She finally collected herself and looked at Xu Que who was taking her away. She had a face of disbelief.
“Don’t talk. Hide your Soul Strength and your presence! D*mn it! That Queen Ant is too powerful. I had already used the extreme version of Dichlorvos, but could only knock her out for a few seconds!” Xu Que was no-nonsense as he continued to step on his Firestorm Wheels and maximize its speed to the limit.
He dared not relax at all. His Firestorm Wheels could only exert a speed comparable to the Earth Celestial Stage. But the problem was that the Queen Ant was also comparable to the Earth Celestial Stage. If he didn’t run a little faster, she might catch up within seconds!
“Fellow cultivator, don’t worry, we’re safe, the Queen Ant can’t catch up with us. Although she’s strong, she can’t be too far away from her nest, otherwise she’ll fall into a period of weakness!” Thewoman reminded Xu Que.
“Oh?” Xu Que heard her and immediately used his Soul Strength to check out the Queen Ant.
Sure enough, there was only a continuous roaring in the distance, but the Queen Ant didn’t chase them. In that instant, he heaved a sigh of relief and was finally at ease.
“Fellow cultivator, you…” Just then, the woman looked at Xu Que and was about to speak.
“Humph!” Xu Que scoffed, and his body jumped. He said in a cold voice, “That Queen Ant should be glad that she didn’t catch up, otherwise if I exerted my Ultimate Unique Skills, it would surely die! Miss, what was that look? Don’t be silly, I wasn’t running away, in fact, I’m preparing a grand attack! The Exploding Heavens Faction never had run away in their dictionary! Uh? Is that an expression of disbelief? Let’s go, I’ll take you back at once and let you see my grand attack with your own eyes!”
