Chapter 173 The second-order queen ant (please subscribe, please collect)
"Squeak" The second-level lower-grade scarlet spiritual fire was like a rope that released scorching heat. It unexpectedly tied up the Rat King tightly, and for a while, he could not break free and could not move.
Under the erosion of the high temperature of the spiritual fire, the rat demon suffered from severe pain, and white breath came out of his body, and the aroma of barbecue continued to spread.
At this time, the Fiery Blade had also killed hundreds of rat demons that blocked the way. In order to avoid more trouble, under the control of Sun Mingsheng, a flash of cold light flashed and split the second-level lower-grade rat king in two. With a twist of the corpse, it completely lost its life characteristics.
The Rat King fell, and the remaining rat demons, who had already suffered heavy losses, were like being frightened. They immediately drilled into the earth holes in all directions and completely gave up blocking the caravan. Thousands of rat demons disappeared without a trace in just three or five breaths.
As for the monks of the Sun family caravan, there was no substantial damage, but this short but intense battle consumed a lot of mana, and they were also unable to pursue.
In fact, under normal circumstances, unless there is a sufficient number advantage, most of them are unable to stop the escape of the rat demon. As for the search for spoils, they can only rely on luck in the battle and dig rat holes to find them bit by bit.
"Bah, except for a pair of buck teeth, there is not a single valuable spoil on the body. Such a battle is really disgusting." Sun Mingsheng also looked at the fallen rat king with a look of disgust.
This battle is not very dangerous, but it is not easy to end either. However, the spoils brought by the rat king are too scarce.
"Rest on the spot, Brother Shi organizes everyone to be alert, and I will go to see if I can find some spoils for everyone from the nests of these rats." Under the sweep of the divine consciousness, Sun Mingsheng's figure quickly disappeared behind the mountains.
This seemingly endless rat hole is actually just an entrance and exit of the rat demon clan's underground kingdom. As for whether he can successfully find the spoils in the end, he is not completely sure.
The family monks who are traveling with him are naturally happy to see it happen. With Sun Mingsheng's character, he has never eaten alone. As long as he has gained something, he will naturally share some spiritual objects with them.
"I don't know if you have any new skills after being promoted to the second-level lower grade. Let's see your skills today." When the figure stopped behind a mountain, Sun Mingsheng whispered to himself, waved his hands, and a black-striped ant with special stripes all over its body and a pair of black wings to maintain its balance finally landed on the ground.
This black-striped ant took the opportunity to steal blood food from the second-level upper grade who was already in the process of blood transformation in the secret place, and finally successfully broke the shackles and fell into a deep sleep and broke the shackles to be promoted to the second-level lower grade.
It was during the battle that Sun Mingsheng felt the awakening of the black-striped ant queen through the feedback of his spiritual sense.
This queen was also the biggest source of confidence for his decision to pursue the rat demon's nest. Under the command of the queen, the more than 100 black-striped ants that had survived by chance were able to find something from the dense rat holes.
The queen kept waving her wings, as if she was making a series of comfortable calls. More than 100 black-striped ants that had also eaten the flesh and blood of the long snake also waved their wings and kept spinning around her body.
After receiving the queen's exact order, they did not hesitate to drill into the bottomless rat holes and quickly moved forward along the breath left by the rat demon.
The black-striped ant queen flapped her wings and flew away. After being a hundred feet away from Sun Mingsheng, she suddenly let out a piercing scream, and as a result, lines visible to the naked eye kept spinning in the air, and finally landed on a big tree not far away, and then exploded.
"She actually comprehended the sonic attack. This is a very rare innate spiritual art. Maybe she can help at a critical moment in the future." Sun Mingsheng comforted the black-striped ant queen with his spiritual sense.
Because it was not long before she achieved the promotion of the rank, the queen looked a little tired after performing the innate sonic spiritual art.
After putting the queen ant into the spirit beast bag, Sun Mingsheng also used his spiritual sense to continuously scan the rat holes, hoping to find some clues from them.
But the underground kingdom carefully built by these rat monsters is really too vast. Apart from some useless fruit roots hidden in the rat holes, no other discoveries were made.
After two hours, a black-striped ant flew out of the rat hole, carrying an unknown species of spiritual medicine seed, which exuded rich spiritual power.
Once the black-striped ants enter the rat hole, they will naturally face certain risks. They also win by their numbers. Their weak bodies and narrow space mean that they cannot escape danger. Of the more than 100 black-striped ants left, only less than 10 have returned so far.
The rest are either still searching in the rat hole or have died for various reasons. In any case, Sun Mingsheng is no longer prepared to wait.
"There is still a long way to Qiling Mountain, and there are still many unknown crises ahead. We must not delay here any longer." Sun Mingsheng quickly made up his mind.
According to the information conveyed by the black-striped ants, he took out a shovel specially used for digging spiritual medicine. After an incense stick of time, a large pit about ten feet wide and six feet deep has taken shape.
This is indeed a temporary warehouse used by rat demons to store food, but most of them are rhizome fruits that ordinary rat demons use to satisfy their hunger and have no other use.
This was the third time that such useless efforts were repeated. Just when Sun Mingsheng was about to give up, the queen ant, who had been staying safely in the spirit beast bag, felt some throbbing through her spiritual consciousness.
"After your little guy reaches the second level, is it possible that you still know how to explore spiritual objects?" Sun Mingsheng took out the queen ant and waited for its guidance.
The queen ant did not waste any time. She showed a bit of fat body and crawled directly into a rat hole that was not too narrow. After being promoted to the second level, the queen ant's originally weak body also gained a little confidence. The power of protection.
Sun Mingsheng waved the shovel in his hand and kept digging. This was not too difficult an action for a monk. If he hadn't been afraid of damaging the spiritual objects in the rat's nest, he would have used other means to deal with it.
Half an hour later, a huge underground warehouse finally appeared in front of Sun Mingsheng. Different types of spiritual objects were stored in different categories. Judging from the obviously larger passages here, it should be unique to the Rat King. Occasionally, You can also see a silver-white rat hair left by the Rat King.
"After all, this rat king has some skills, and he has never let me down." Looking at the harvest in front of him, Sun Mingsheng finally showed a satisfied smile on his face. After all, he never left empty-handed.
