Chapter 1044 Iron-eating ant eggs, iron-eating ant queen
Iron-eating ant!
This is a fairy insect that existed in the ancient world of true immortals.
The attack power is very powerful.
Although, the group of iron-eating ants in the cave don't seem to be very powerful.
However, Lin Fan believed that as long as he was cultivated using secret techniques, he would be able to deal with ordinary Mahayana cultivators without difficulty.
But at this moment, no one opened their mouths, and Lin Fan was embarrassed to take the matter of collecting the sweet spring dew on himself.
"Fairy, can you take action and arrange an illusion in the cave. As long as the time can be calculated so that Fellow Daoist Jiao and the others cannot detect the situation in the cave."
Lin Fan secretly sent a message to Zhu Ningyue.
Zhu Ningyue suddenly looked surprised when she heard this.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, are you really planning to attack the iron-eating ants? Each of these little things is very cruel."
"Moreover, it needs to be fed with the extremely pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth regularly. Fellow Daoist Lin, if you want to raise these iron-eating ants, it will cost a lot of money."
Lin Fan said nonchalantly: "Thank you, Fairy, for reminding me. I have my own sense of discretion in this matter."
"Well, since you said so, Fellow Daoist Lin, I can't say much. It's not difficult for me to set up an illusory formation that can hide the spiritual thoughts of the Mahayana cultivators. The key point is that Fellow Daoist Lin is really sure. Collect all these iron-eating ants? You have to think clearly. If these iron-eating ants go crazy, they will bite you."
Lin Fan chuckled and shook his head: "The fairy was joking about the power of the iron-eating ants. Of course I am very aware of it. I have some abilities, but I dare not forcefully take these iron-eating ants as my own. What exactly do I want to do? Please tell me. Let me give it a try."
Lin Fan explained and stopped talking nonsense to Zhu Ningyue.
While Lin Fan and Zhu Ningyue were transmitting messages, Jiao Haichong, Wang Zhengqing, Lan Yu, and Master Xuangui were also discussing how to deal with the iron-eating ants.
"In my opinion, the method that Fellow Daoist Lin just mentioned is somewhat effective. Just use the imitation Chaos Spirit Treasure to lure out the iron-eating ants."
"What fellow Taoist said is nice. We will use imitation Chaos Spirit Treasures to lure out the iron-eating ants. Are you going to collect the sweet spring dew?"
"Ahem, I just said it casually. Why do fellow Taoists have to be serious?"
Hearing that everyone wanted the sweet spring dew, but faced the threat of iron-eating ants, no one dared to take the risk, Lin Fan smiled and said: "Fellow Taoists, although I have just become an early Mahayana cultivator not long ago. But, I am willing Take the risk. Just now, fellow Taoists, I have a secret technique that can temporarily restrain the iron-eating ants."
Jiao Haichong and others' eyes lit up.
The eyes looking at Lin Fan were full of gratitude.
If you can't get the sweet spring dew, everything will be in vain.
Lin Fan was willing to risk entering the cave to collect sweet spring dew for everyone, and Jiao Haichong and others were naturally happy.
But everyone must be like grasshoppers on a rope. Although Lin Fan volunteered to collect sweet spring dew for everyone, he still had to do what everyone should do.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, the risk is too great for you to enter it alone."
"That's right, fellow Taoist, please think again."
"Fellow Daoist Lin, let's discuss whether there is a more secure way."
Seeing everyone trying to persuade him, Lin Fan didn't say anything on the surface, but secretly sneered in his heart.
"These old guys are indeed a bunch of dead Taoist friends but poor Taoist bastards. However, it doesn't matter. As long as all the iron-eating ants are lured out, I will not be in great danger when I enter the cave."
"Even if there are still remnants of iron-eating ants in the cave, I can still deal with them."
Lin Fan murmured secretly, but on the surface he looked very useful.
"Since all fellow Taoists have said so, let's discuss whether there are other ways to collect the sweet spring dew."
While Lin Fan was talking, he simply found a place to sit cross-legged.
When they really wanted to discuss with everyone whether there was any other way to collect the sweet dew, the expressions of Jiao Haichong and others suddenly became extremely embarrassed.
But just now, since they persuaded Lin Fan. At this moment, it is naturally not easy to go back on one's promise.
Master Xuangui, on the other hand, was silent for a moment, looked at Lin Fan and said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist Lin, in my opinion, everyone is eager for the sweet spring dew. If you are willing to take the risk to collect the sweet spring dew, the collected sweet spring dew, How about we give another 10% to fellow Taoists?”
Lin Fan smiled lightly.
A hint of contempt flashed in his eyes.
Seeing this, Master Xuangui knew that Lin Fan was dissatisfied with his proposal, but every drop of the nectar from the sweet spring was very precious.
He didn't want to give too much of his share to Lin Fan.
"Fellow Taoist Lin, we have given you an extra 10% of the sweet dew. Are you still not satisfied?"
"Fellow Taoist Xuangui, if any of you are willing to enter the cave and collect the sweet spring dew, I would also be willing to give him an extra share of the sweet spring dew. I wonder which fellow daoist is willing?" Lin Fan sneered.
Staying outside the cave, if you are attacked by iron-eating ants, you can at least escape with speed.
If you enter the cave and are attacked by iron-eating ants, you will die.
The risk in this matter is not that great.
Even Master Black Turtle is not completely sure that he can survive the attack of iron-eating ants.
"Ahem, now that Fellow Daoist Lin has said so, we can't say anything. In this case, the four of us agree to give Fellow Daoist Lin an extra 20% of the sweet spring dew."
"Add another 10% for fellow Taoist to eliminate ghost energy. Fellow Taoist alone can get an additional 30%, how about that?"
When Lin Fan heard this, he nodded immediately.
But soon, Lin Fan said again: "Fellow Daoists, it's not that I'm greedy. It's just that entering the cave is very risky. However, if you give me 30% more of the sweet spring fairy dew, the sweet spring fairy dew in the hands of my fellow Daoists will be much less. Why don't I take out 10% of it and sell it to the four Daoists? I wonder what the four Daoists think?"
The four people of Master Xuangui were suddenly enlightened when they heard this.
As long as they can get more sweet spring fairy dew and pay more spirit stones, there will be no problem.
Lin Fan's proposal really made them overjoyed.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, you really understand us. In this case, leave the matter of attracting the iron-eating ants to us."
"That's right, we don't need Fellow Daoist Lin to take out the Chaos Spirit Treasure replica. Fellow Daoist Lin just needs to conserve his energy. After we have lured all the iron-eating ants out, you just need to go to the cave and collect the sweet spring fairy dew."
"That's right. Fellow Daoist Lin, you take a break for a while, we will go and attract the iron-eating ants out."
Soon, Master Black Turtle rushed directly into the cave.
And Lin Fan did not dare to be careless.
He calmed down and concentrated his mind, and hid quietly in the dark after restraining his breath.
An hour and a half later, four embarrassed figures rushed towards the distance at a high speed.
Soon, a large number of iron-eating ants swarmed out.
They chased Master Black Turtle and shot towards the distance.
Seeing this, Lin Fan did not dare to be careless.
He took out several Chaos Spirit Treasure replicas and threw them at the entrance of the cave, strictly preventing the returning iron-eating ants from coming back too fast and blocking himself in the cave.
And he himself, after secretly performing the Thirteen Changes of Taixuan, restrained his breath and spiritual power fluctuations, and quickly rushed into the cave.
About an hour later, Lin Fan successfully reached the deepest part of the cave.
At this moment, he saw the full picture of the iron-eating ant nest.
It was a large seat comparable to a luxurious palace.
Even Lin Fan could hardly imagine that such a complicated project was completed by a group of iron-eating ants with undeveloped intelligence.
However, when he urged his clear and bright spiritual eyes to carefully explore the iron-eating ant nest, he found that there were still many eggs that had not been fully hatched in the iron-eating ant nest.
Lin Fan specially selected the eggs with great vitality and quickly collected them into the Lingmiao Xiantu.
Only after he collected tens of thousands of iron-eating ant eggs in one breath did he smile with satisfaction.
"With these tens of thousands of iron-eating ant eggs, I will have one more means to fight against Mahayana cultivators in the future."
"For now, I'd better hurry up and collect the sweet spring dew."
Lin Fan was secretly happy.
Just as he was about to rush to the place where the sweet spring dew was, he heard an angry female voice ringing in his ears.
"Fellow Daoist, you are so greedy, robbing my people, are you looking for death?"
Lin Fan was horrified when he heard this.
Before he could activate his spiritual power and prepare for battle, Zhu Ningyue said in horror.
"It's the queen of the iron-eating ants!"
