Chapter 1864 - Ants
In this "Heavenly Imperial Dragon Palace", even an ant had such strength!
Tang Huan lamented in her heart.
However, in an instant, he was alarmed. Ants had always been social creatures. Since there was one here, it was very likely that there would be a second one, a third one … There were even thousands and thousands of them. Furthermore, no one could guarantee that there were no Heavenly King Stage powerhouses amongst the ants.
Just as this thought came out, Tang Huan sensed many powerful auras.
In just the blink of an eye, the area around Tang Huan was already densely packed with giant golden ants. Countless pairs of eyes were staring straight at this uninvited guest.
"Could this be an ant"s nest?"
Tang Huan was startled, immediately her powerful consciousness spread out in all directions.
Indeed, within the several hundred miles of area, many auras interweaved. Although the auras were different in strength, it was clear that they came from the huge golden ants. Tang Huan couldn"t help but estimate that the number of ants in this group exceeded at least a hundred thousand.
It was one thing even if it was like this. Those with the weakest auras could be compared with a Tier 6 Heavenly Marquis; it was comparable to both a Tier 9 or a peak Tier 9 Heavenly Marquis.
Beside Tang Huan, there were hundreds of giant ants that were equivalent to peak Ninth Level Marquis of Heaven.
Moreover, this kind of giant ant"s aura was exceptionally overbearing and violent, as if it was a barrel of gunpowder that was ready to explode at any moment. From the looks of the surrounding giant ants who were staring at him, Tang Huan could clearly feel an exceptionally strong sense of ruthlessness.
The moment they appeared, they had already a.s.sumed an offensive stance. The reason why there were still no movements was because they seemed to be waiting for orders.
Once the order was given, they would probably pounce ferociously from the surroundings.
This ant colony was definitely different from ordinary ant colonies.
The ones who could give them orders were naturally the leaders of this colony of ants. Roughly a hundred and fifty kilometers away from Tang Huan, an even more powerful aura was faintly discernable. The strength of the aura had already far surpa.s.sed the limit of a peak-ninth level Sky Marquis, and it had almost reached the level of a mid-level Sky King.
It should be that ant king.
In this ant swarm, the King Ant was not the only one with power. In the surrounding thousands of meters, there were five auras as comparable to a lower Heavenly King lurking, surrounding and protecting the King Ant like stars surrounding the moon. A middle level Heavenly King, five lower level Heavenly Kings, and more than a hundred thousand Heaven Marquis …
Before Tang Huan had returned, her strength was enough to sweep through any sect in the Scarlet Radiance Sect, including the Seven Stars Immortal Palace and the G.o.dly Mt. Xumi.
However, in this "Heavenly Imperial Dragon Palace", it was only the size of an ant colony.
However, although Tang Huan was surprised, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief when she understood the situation of the colony of ants.
"Sizzle ~ ~"
A strange sound suddenly came from afar, as if something was violently rubbing against the hard stone surface. It was extremely ear-piercing.
The surrounding giant ants swayed their antennae, and immediately listened to the imperial edict. They jumped down from the stalks of weeds, crazily swinging their long and sharp legs, pouncing towards Tang Huan. Every giant ants opened their mouths wide, as if they could tear all their prey into pieces.
Tang Huan squinted, her expression calm.
If the Ant King and the other six Heavenly King Stage Ants came personally, Tang Huan would have to be extra careful. However, even if there were a large number of Sky Marquis Ants, he would not pay attention to them.
"Whooosh."
In between his mind instructs (in a second), Tang Huan"s aura, which had originally been restrained, suddenly whizzed out of his body.
At this moment, it was as if an incomparably violent storm had appeared out of nowhere around Tang Huan, and all of the astonis.h.i.+ngly tall weeds around him began to topple outwards.
The giant ants who were rus.h.i.+ng forward all paused for a moment, as if they were frightened by Tang Huan"s terrifying aura.
"Sizzle ~ ~"
The intense and ear-piercing rubbing sounds once again rang out, seeming to have become a little hurried in establishment.
The long antennae of the surrounding ants trembled. They shook their long legs with all their might, turned around and ran away. In an instant, they disappeared.
Seeing that, Tang Huan could not help but be slightly startled.
"They were scared off just like that?"
Tang Huan felt that it was a little unexpected, although the aura he was activating was tyrannical, the colony of ants also had powerful experts of the same level guarding them, especially since the Ant King was a Mid Level Heavenly King. Even if they wanted to retreat, it would have to be after the battle, but now, they had actually retreated without fighting.
This didn"t seem to make sense.
After a while, Tang Huan revealed a puzzled look. Not only was the ant that was just about to attack him retreating, the entire ant swarm started to move within a few hundred kilometers. All the ants were moving towards the same direction at an astonis.h.i.+ng speed.
Even the six Heavenly King Stage powerhouses, including the Ant King, were moving together.
They seem to be.
"Fleeing?"
The two words that popped out from his mind made Tang Huan even more suspicious. The group of ants that came out right now had the att.i.tude of running for their lives.
Just then, Tang Huan suddenly realized that the ground had started to tremble.
Originally, Tang Huan thought that it was a movement caused by the ant colony, but in the next moment, Tang Huan discovered that it wasn"t so. Although the giant ants were huge in size, every single one of them had landed on the ground without making a sound.
Thousands of miles away, there were actually two incomparably terrifying and powerful auras. There were actually two abnormally terrifying auras.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
"..."
The roar shook the heaven and earth.
Even from far away, they could clearly hear it. It was as if two Heavenly Beasts were fighting, and the ground was shaking more and more violently.
In terms of auras, those two Heavenly Beasts were not much weaker than the phoenix head that was chasing after Tang Huan at the "Pill Sea Realm".
At this moment, Tang Huan finally understood why these ants were rus.h.i.+ng and desperately trying to escape. If the fight between the two Sky Beasts were to spread to this place, the ants would definitely suffer countless of deaths and injuries. If this place turned into a battlefield, then the entire colony of ants might turn into ashes.
Tang Huan"s face darkened, her eyebrows knitted together.
He suddenly realized that his current situation was no different from those ants who were fleeing for their lives. With his strength, he could be considered a top powerhouse even in the entire 36 days. But in this Heavenly Imperial Dragon Palace, he was nothing.
If he was affected by the fight with the Heavenly Beast, he would be in danger too.
Of course, he could also hide in the "Illusory Sword Heavenly Palace" or use the "Nine Yang Divine Furnace" to resist, but once he attracted the attention of the two Heavenly Beasts, he would be in even more danger.
What should he do now?
