Astral Ants

The gate is more than ten centimeters thick.

It took 13 days for the dragon cypress and the ghost fan to come alternately, and finally a gap about [-] centimeters wide was opened at the bottom of the door.

Sweeping mental power,
Ghost Fan was dumbfounded.

Long Bai jumped.

The opposite side of the gate is blocked, and the ability of the soil system is also used to reinforce it.

Ghost Fan said with difficulty: "Long Bai, these two gates seem to be pushed forward and then opened."

Long Bai: "I see..."

Long Bai: "It's not a big problem, please come over here, use the 'soil improvement' ability to destroy, and then take out a space enough to open the door..."

Long Bai activates the soul-fixing ability induction.

Limited by the strengthening metal of Jinhewen, Dinghun can only sense a flat fan-shaped area forward, and the sensing range increases with the increase of the forward distance.

No force life was detected.

"Long Bai, how are you doing?"

"It seems that there are no retired old spiders from the Flame Spider Kingdom around."

"That's great!"

"Don't get too excited. The exit here is at the foot of the mountain, at the same level as the sea. Maybe, the old flame spiders are lying on the mountain."

"...It's also possible..."

Ghost Fan asked: "Long Bai, if we pass by, how can we communicate with them? Will we be killed?"

Long Bai: "The Flame Spider Kingdom doesn't want the secret of the passage to be known by other Zergs. Therefore, let's explain the situation in the Yunji Continent and make it clear that no matter whether we leave the Force Star Realm or not, we will not leave the tribal inheritance and cannot leave it. The next tribal inheritance. Those old spiders have no reason to kill."

Long Bai: "It should be noted that the existence of Mount Citigroup should not be exposed. Mount Citigroup will be passed down. The existence of the Tilia Worm Kingdom cannot be disclosed. The area of ​​the Tilia Worm Kingdom is large enough, and the Barley Worm Warriors may be passed on from generation to generation. go down."

"But……"

Ghost Fan raised its claws and knocked on the metal door, saying: "It seems that Jin Hewen's ability cannot be concealed."

Long Bai: "It can't be called 'Golden Hewen' anymore, it has to be called 'Metal Destruction', claiming that it is the metal ability that I have comprehended. After so many years, after dozens of generations, most of them have forgotten the former Citi Mountain, and The three sacred trees of Mount Citi."

Ghost Fan: "The Flame Spider Kingdom also has wild god-given seeds."

Long Bai: "Yes. So we have to be very careful. The soul-fixing ability endowed by Dinghunguo and the ability of Jinhewen endowed by Golden Myrobalan have distinct characteristics and should not be exposed. The wood-type talent endowed by Kunlanzi doesn't matter. Nothing special, there are many similar gods in the world."

The ghost fan nodded its tentacles to express its understanding.

Long Bo paused, and continued: "After passing by, we will definitely meet the warriors of the Flame Spider tribe. All the worms on our Yunji Continent need to prepare a unified set of words. The core point is that the Yunji Continent is only It is because there are some force points with an area of ​​more than ten to twenty square kilometers, and only a few dozen Zerg warriors survive..."

As Long Bai spoke, the tentacles suddenly stood upright.

A large group of souls of different strengths broke into the sensing range of the ability to stabilize the soul.

They stopped, spread out, moved up and down.

"Long Bai, what's wrong?"

Ghost Fan asked.

Long Bai was unsure: "The ant clan? Or the termite kingdom?"

Long Bai: "The lord level...the opposite is actually an ant kingdom?"

Long Bai turned around and looked at the map on the top of the cave.

Confirm repeatedly.

This is indeed an island with a length of about 60 kilometers, a width of only 10 kilometers at its widest point, and a total area of ​​about 400 square kilometers.

An isolated island in the vast ocean.

Can such a big island accommodate a lord-level ant kingdom?

Whether it is ants or termites, it is almost impossible to cross the ocean and communicate with the continent without mastering the ability of the water system.

How to evolve the lord level?

There must be trade exchanges.

Flame Spider Kingdom?

Long Bai's thoughts changed sharply, and he figured it out.

It must be an ant king supported by the flame spider kingdom to help them guard the passage here.

Long Bai turned around, facing the crack of the door, activated his soul-fixing ability, and observed carefully.

——Ant colonies gather in groups, going up and down trees, most of them are picking fruits from the trees.

——Similar to the giant ants, there are many different sizes. The small ants may only be a few centimeters, and the soul is only a little weak, and the number is huge.The large-sized ant soul is strong and solid, and its body length may exceed 2 meters.The small ants are busy working, while the big ants are directing and supervising the work.

——Termites do not have such a large size differentiation, and they do not like to eat fruits.Not the termite kingdom.

—that is some omnivorous or vegetarian ant race.

Long Bai calmed down, observed, thought, and came to a judgment in his mind.

Ghost Fan waited quietly for a long time, and tentatively asked: "Longbai Ant King, what did you find?"

Long Bai: "Preliminary judgment, the opposite is an ant kingdom similar to the giant ants."

Ghost Fan: "Ah..."

Ghost Fan fell silent.

Not all ants are easy to talk to.

On the contrary, each ant king of the ant clan can form a country of his own, has a strong sense of territory, is aggressive by nature, and is the most difficult to communicate with.

Long Bai: "Don't panic. Observe for another two days."

……

The ability to fix the soul is particularly exhausting.

Long Bai withdrew his ability, returned to the throne to rest for a while, came to the crack of the door again, and sensed his soul-fixing ability.

The ant colony that was busy picking before has disappeared.

Within the sensing range, no other soul traces were detected.

Put away your abilities and wait patiently for a while,
Unlocking the ability again, there is still no trace of the ant colony.

Put away the ability and wait...

After repeatedly failing to find out, Long Bai suggested: "Ghost Fan, let's open a vertical slit along the door? It can expand the sensing range of the ability to fix the soul in the up and down direction."

"it is good--"

Ghost Fan agreed without even thinking about it, and stepped forward to use the 'Golden Hewen' ability to destroy the reinforced metal structure filling the vertical gap between the two gates.

After using up all the force at once, return to the ruling throne to rest.

Long Bai connected and scraped off a layer of destroyed metal with his claws.

Take turns.

At the same time, Long Bai also intermittently observed through the gap at the bottom of the gate, with the ability to stabilize his soul.

……

Another 13 days.

Ghost Fan and Long Bai worked together to create another vertical slit.

The two gaps intersected horizontally and vertically, and the sensing range of the soul-fixing ability suddenly expanded a lot.

However, nothing new was discovered...

In the past 13 days, Longbai only captured the traces of the ant tribe on the island 7 times, all of which were foraging teams led by specialized ants. They came and went in a hurry, as if they were hunting on a march.He only stayed within the sensing range of the soul-fixing ability for one time, went up and down the tree for a while, and then quickly left.

Long Bai once again looked at the map of the cave dome.

The current island is long and narrow, running north-south.

Then, my current position should be the northern end of the island close to the divine power barrier.

The northern part of the island is relatively narrow, with a width of only 5000 meters.

The southern part of the island is more open and may be more than 10 kilometers wide.

The wide land means that it is more resistant to the stormy and severe weather that often occurs in the ocean.

The Ant Nation's main nest must have been built in the southern part of the island.

If it is to develop orchards, the main energy must be focused on the south.

400 square kilometers is not too small.

The other party's Ant Kingdom doesn't pay much attention to the north of the island. It may be to plant some plants that are easy to survive and do not need to be managed, and occasionally send an ant colony to move around.

Long Bai thought from another angle, from the perspective of the flame spider tribe:
First, the Flame Spider tribe would never have imagined that there were Zerg warriors on the Yunji Continent.

Second, the Flame Spider Kingdom should be located in the ancestral land of "Shanglu" in the neighboring Longbai Continent, not on the Molan Continent.

Thirdly, who among the Zerg race in the Molan Continent would find the equatorial power barrier across the sea area of ​​three or four thousand kilometers when they are full and have nothing to do?

Moreover, such a large ocean area and such a small island are not so easy to find.

Therefore, based on a comprehensive judgment, the Flame Spider tribe is very relieved of the concealment of this passage, and simply supported an ant kingdom on the island to protect it on their behalf.Most of the time, one or two senior spider kings in the tribe would stop by every year when they traveled to the south to send resources to the ant king on the island and check the passage.

Long Bai already had a more detailed judgment in his mind.

Stay and observe for another five days.

Captured the whereabouts of ant colonies three times.

Once it was harvesting from a tree, and it stayed within the sensing range for a period of time.

Twice it was a march passing by.

The situation on the other side is basically clear, pack up and return.

It's winter time.

Ghost Fan went back to Ghost Fan Mountain on the way.

Long Bai returned to Xianglan Mountain first to organize winter fishing.

After finishing his work, he unhurriedly headed to the Tilia worm country. (end of this chapter)
