After recovering some of his strength, Ye Xiao once again walked out and started fighting with the ants.
The sound of fighting lingered in the air. One ant after another died under Ye Xiao's hand and spear.
Half a day later, Ye Xiao was forced his way deeper into the cave.
Suddenly, he discovered that the level of the ants in this place had changed from Third Grade Magical Beast to Fourth Grade Magical Beast. Their bodies had become even larger.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
He continued to kill without mercy. The ants in front of him died a tragic death under his spear. Some of them were also burnt to death by his Beast Fire.
Until the end, Ye Xiao's eyes had turned red from killing. He did not know how many ants he had killed. Finally, he could not help but stop fighting.
He could not continue to fight with the ants. There were countless ants attacking him.
If this continues, he did not know when but he will surely be poisoned to death.
"Spirit Devour Escape!"
He stopped fighting and directly used his escape technique to escape from the clutches of these ants.
He did not escape outside the cave but went even deeper.
Not long after he arrived in an empty area.
Without thinking much, he immediately started to lay down a killing formation with the help of the skull of Eight Wings White-Armoured Insects and other necessary ingredients.
The moment he finished laying down the formation, thousands of ants arrived in that empty area.
Without wasting any time, he once again used the Spirit Devour Escape and ran deeper into the cave while when the ants tried to follow him, they were immediately trapped in the killing formation and were instantly killed.
Not long after that, he arrived deep inside the cave. There was a huge cave. Inside, there were tens of Fourth Grade ants squatting and lying down.
This group of ants all surrounded an incomparable skeleton in the middle of the cave. No, perhaps it shouldn't be called just a skeleton because it had a body that was more than 80 meters tall, enormous fleshy wings, powerful claws that were suffused with a metallic lustre. Together with its sharp fangs and two foot long horns on its head.
This was actually the half-devoured corpse of a dragon!
If one looked closely, one would be able to see a few huge ants on its body.
Beside this dragon was a corpse that was already half turned into a skeleton. Even if it had turned into a corpse, it still faintly emitted a trace of the might it had when it was alive.
"As expected, the flesh and blood on its body must have been eaten by those ants, and only because of this, they were able to mutate and evolved to be strange poisonous ants they are now."
"Also, they were able to grow out such a strange wing on their back only because they had eaten too much of the dragon's flesh."
Ye Xiao now understood the reason behind their strangeness as well as the reason behind his familiar feeling.
All of this was related to the corpse of a dragon in front of him.
"Squeak squeak!" An ant saw him, it ran toward him and cried out wildly.
Hearing the ant's shrill cry, other ants also looked at him and pounced toward him while flapping their wings.
"Sea Dragon Descends: First Style, Hands of Waves!"
Ye Xiao once again used his most powerful killing move, turning the entire area into the sea and causing hundreds of dragon's hands to emerge out of the water with a dragon's roar.
Ye Xiao slaughtered the ants crazily once again.
Not long after, only Ye Xiao was left alive in this large cave.
From time to time, he kept hearing some screams from his back. He knew these screams were coming from those thousands of ants who previously followed behind him and now, they were being killed by the killing formation he had laid down.
There was no more ant left at the place where Ye Xiao was standing.
"Rumble! Rumble!"
Just as he was about to walk toward the corpse of the dragon, the ground suddenly started to shake.
He stopped in his track and looked ahead of him and saw an enormous ant was walking toward him at a slow pace.
That huge ant scanned the surroundings with its sharp little eyes. When it found that not a single ant was left alive here and all of them were dead, it sprang to its feet, its enormous wings spread sideways, and let out a shrill cry.
When Ye Xiao saw this enormous ant, he was shocked.
"The Ant's Queen!"
A name suddenly appeared in his mind. Since this cave was the nest of ants, there was bound to be an ant queen here.
It was just Ye Xiao had ignored this fact previously.
Looking at the Ant Queen, he saw that she was actually a Fifth Grade Magical Beast. Her body was also two times larger than a Fourth Grade Ant that he killed just a few moments ago.
Ye Xiao held his Sea Dragon Spear tightly and looked at Ant's Queen coldly.
The other party looked ferocious and seemed very powerful.
The Ant's Queen bared her teeth and looked at Ye Xiao ferociously. Then it made a crisp sound and waved its wings to attack Ye Xiao.
The Ant's Queen spat out a green poisonous mist toward Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao immediately used Wing's of the Divine Dragon and with a flap of his wings, he hurriedly avoided coming in contact with that poisonous mist.
Seeing Ye Xiao avoiding its attack, the Ant's Queen looked at him with great vigilance in her eyes.
Ye Xiao started to think of the ways to kill this Ant's Queen, after all, this was a Fifth Grade Magical Beast whose strength was equal to that of a Peak Martial Emperor Realm martial artist.
