Chapter 1346: Black Hell Ants

Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

Behind Qingfeng Li, the Taotie and Qiongqi were still battling each other. They were both ferocious beasts from the ancient era, each possessing immense power. Their battle arena extended far into the air and deep into the ground, and they had shaken and shattered everything within their reach. The sun and the moon had been dimmed and blocked out, and even the space in the second level of Hell was rocking and rumbling. It was as though doomsday had come.

Qingfeng Li knew that he could not stay in here for long. If he did not get out immediately, these two legendary ferocious beasts would eventually come to realization of what was happening and tear him to pieces.

Qingfeng Li sprinted through the second level of hell, quickly escaping from the Taotie and Qiongqi.

Qingfeng Li knew that he had to get far away from those two beasts - the farther the better, or else they would still be able to sense his aura. And when that happened, it would be the end of him.

It was difficult enough for Qingfeng Li to take on one legendary ferocious beast already. In fact, he actually could not even deal with one. If he had two coming after him, then his death would be certain.

When Qingfeng Li was running through the second level of hell, he saw a lot of white bones scattered on the ground. Those bones were all that remained after the ferocious beasts had eaten off the flesh. They looked gruesome and miserable.

Even though Hell held a copious amount of spiritual devices that could help self-cultivators level up and strengthen, they also came with plenty of risks. These risks were mainly due to the many unknown factors lurking in this place.

Not only were there ancient beasts, there were also ancient poisonous pests. There were even devils, though they were usually trapped and suppressed below the third level of Hell. Every now and then, a few would escape and wander onto other levels. Those were lost and wandering souls, and they could make things very difficult for self-cultivators.

"I need to find the Wolf Fang Team and get them out of here too." Qingfeng Light sent out his spirit energy in all directions in search of the aura of the Wolf Fang Team.

Qingfeng Li knew those in the Wolf Fang Team very well, and he even had a device set up on Daoist's body. That was a miniature talisman scripture device Qingfeng Li designed himself after he obtained and mastered the knowledge of talisman scriptures.

The Wolf Fang Team was not in the northern direction as Qingfeng Li just escaped from the battle of the two legendary ferocious beasts fighting there; he could not sense them in the south or west direction neither. Qingfeng Li frowned as he locked his spirit energy onto the east.

Qingfeng Li sent his spirit energy into the east direction, and his face lit up as he was finally able to pick up the aura of his comrades.

As Qingfeng Li stomped his foot on the ground, launched his body into the air and started sprinting above ground level. Like a mythical immortal, he flew towards the east side of Hell.

At this moment, 100 kilometers towards the east on the second level of Hell, the Wolf Fang Team was in danger.

Actually, not only the Wolf Fang Sect, all the other self-cultivators that they were with - a few thousands of them, had all run into danger. Their way was blocked by an army of ants.

Also, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, Flower Fairy, Xianzhi Qin, and Fengwu Cao were all by Wolf Fang Sect's side.

Staring at the ants before her eyes, Flower Fairy asked, "Puppy, what are those things? How are they so strong?"

Black Puppy looked very concerned as he answered, "They are black hell ants."

Upon hearing Black Puppy's response, the Wolf Fang Team, Flower Fairy, and the others became puzzled and confused. They had no idea what kind of species the black hell ants were, as they had never seen or heard of them.

Even though it had never run into black hell ants in the past, Black Puppy had learned of the ferociousness of these creatures. Just a while ago, a few dozen self-cultivators wanted to break through to the other side, but the black hell ants swarmed all over their bodies instantaneously. Within 10 seconds, only a pile of white bones remained.

There were ants on Earth, but they were very different from the ants in hell.

Ants on Earth were usually very small, most only the size of a grain of rice. But the ants in hell were gigantic in comparison, each one of them was almost the size of a soccer ball.

Moreover, the size of their leader was even bigger than a soccer ball - it was of the size of a bathroom sink.

The thought of a bathroom sink-sized ant was scary enough. Still, these black hell ants had jet black bodies, rock-hard exoskeletons, and sharp claws - every part of their body exuded an aura of intimidation.

These were all meat-eating ants, and their favourite food was human flesh.

Flower Fairy and the others were all very strong, they had all reached the spirit king realm now.

Especially Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake, they were of the half-step Spirit Emperor Realm, and their combat abilities were comparable to those in the Spirit Emperor Realm. They could hold their own even against the sect masters of the four greatest emperor level sects. Even then, they did not dare to confront the black hell ants in front of them.

Black Puppy looked to Sky-Devouring Snake and asked, "Hey snob, any good idea on how to get pass them?"

Sky-Devouring Snake shook its head and replied, "I have no idea. Every one of these black hell ants are extremely strong and has immense physical strength. In addition, they have long resided in Hell and have been contaminated by the aura here. Only with the power of lightning and flames can we kill them. There is no other way."

Black Puppy shook its head in disapproval, "I thought you were able to devour the sky and the earth? You could devour the world, yet you are afraid of these black hell ants?"

Sky-Devouring Snake shook its head again. "I'm not afraid of them. It's just that I am still not strong enough. I can easily swallow a couple of them, but if I were to swallow all of them, I have no way to refine all of their energy. In the end, I'd just die from eating too much."

Black Puppy nodded in understanding. It too, was not afraid of the black hell ants. It would have been easy for it to take out a couple, but when there were thousands of them, and even Black Puppy was a little creeped out.

In fact, Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake were both godly beasts of Earth. One was the ancestor of all dogs, the other of snakes.

They could have gotten pass the ants fine, but not Flower Fairy and the Wolf Fang Team. In order to protect their friends, they decided to stay behind to think of a solution together.

At this time, a short-haired self-cultivator stepped forward. He was a powerful Spirit King Realm master who had already achieved the Ninth Level. He was not willing to be trapped here when he was only steps away from achieving the half-step Spirit Emperor Realm.

The short-haired self-cultivator swung the long sword in his hand, and with great power, he bolted forward.

A black hell ant jumped up from the ground with its ferocious mouth wide open, trying to bite down at the short-haired self-cultivator.

The short-haired self-cultivator let out a cold laugh and swung his long sword. A flash of sharp sword energy was emitted and directly cut that black hell ant in half. As its dead body fell to the ground, it was immediately devoured by the other black hell ants.

These black hell ants were wicked and evil. They not only preyed on self-cultivators and demonic beasts but also on the corpses of their own kind.

After the short-haired self-cultivator killed off one black hell ant, his confidence grew greatly. He continued dashing forward.

At this moment, hundreds and thousands of black hell ants jumped up at the same time and had surrounded him from all directions.

The short-haired self-cultivator's face turned grim. He swung the sword in hand and frantically struck forward, killing off one black hell ant, then two, three, ten…

If it was not for the soul of the Fire Dragon, it would have been very difficult for Qingfeng Li to escape from the second floor of hell as well as these demonic beasts.

Qingfeng Li concentrated on his mind, and his spirit energy came into the interspatial ring. He saw the Saint Perishing Fruit inside and happiness filled his eyes. His bad mood from getting injured also lightened.

"Ruyan, my baby, wait for me, I already got the Saint Perishing Fruit, and I am going back to Huaxia to save you soon," Qingfeng Li said to himself, and a soft look appeared in his eyes.
