Chapter 1865 - Nest

Very quickly, Tang Huan's guess became a reality.

As the two Heavenly Beasts closed in on them, the ground started to tremble. For such a powerful existence, a thousand li was a short distance.

No more hesitation!

Tang Huan thought for a while and made her decision.

Almost an instant later, Tang Huan retracted her aura, and her body moved like lightning as she explosively shot forward. In just a short span of one or two breaths, Tang Huan had caught up to a gigantic ant that was at the peak of the ninth level of the Sky Marquis class.

The giant ant was currently running around frantically with all its might, and as Tang Huan did not leak any of her Qi, it did not sense a thing.

However, an ant that was extremely close to it saw Tang Huan, who was following behind it.

The giant ant was frightened and subconsciously turned its head to look, but there was not even a shadow of a ghost behind it.

Just as it looked at its companion with suspicion, the giant ant felt the weight on its back become heavier. It turned around and saw that its back was still empty. This confused it and frightened it.

Obviously, it was shocked by Tang Huan's sudden disappearance.

Of course, it was impossible for Tang Huan to truly disappear into thin air. The moment she caught up to the giant ant, Tang Huan immediately used the sacred art "Heavenly Invisibility" and then leaped up, landing on the ant's back as she treated it as her own mount.

The reason why he chose to travel with the colony of ants was very simple.

Compared to Tang Huan who had just arrived, these ants were obviously local serpents of the "Heavenly Imperial Dragon Palace". Such a huge colony of ants could actually survive until now, and with the appearance of six Heavenly King Stage powerhouses like the Ant King, it was likely that they had encountered quite a number of dangerous situations.

If he followed them, he might be able to find a refuge.

"Rumble …"

The loud noise came one after another, as if the world was falling apart. The two fighting Heavenly Beasts behind were getting closer and closer, after a while, they were less than five hundred li away from the colony of ants.

At this time, Tang Huan could even faintly feel the Strength Qi's fluctuations as it swept across the sky.

Four hundred kilometers. Three hundred. A hundred kilometers …

As the Heavenly Beasts drew closer, the ant swarm that was running away was also surrounded by a tense atmosphere.

Tang Huan frowned, was her judgement wrong? This colony of ants was just running aimlessly, they had no place of refuge?

"Sizzle ~ ~"

Right at this moment, a sharp and ear-piercing sound suddenly rang out.

Within Tang Huan's senses, all the giant ants scattered across the vast area started to change their direction, and headed towards the front line where the ant king was.

In the next moment, Tang Huan discovered that the Ant King's Qi had disappeared.

Following that, the five Heavenly King's auras also disappeared. Following that, the auras of the rest of the giant ants also largely escaped Tang Huan's senses.

"It looks like... There's hope! "

This sudden change of events made Tang Huan's heart twitch.

The disappearance of the giant ants such as the Ant King was definitely not because their souls had dispersed. Instead, it was because they had hidden somewhere to hide their auras.

Of course, it would be useless if he did not want to be affected by the fierce battle of the Heavenly Beast behind him, and could only conceal his presence.

The hiding place of the colony of ants would surely be extremely sturdy, and would be able to withstand the impact of a powerful force … The ant colony must have believed this to be the reason for them avoiding it.

It might even be the nest of the ants.

Tang Huan calmed her mind, and was about to investigate further, when she saw a round hole dozens of meters tall, which was in her line of sight through a gap in the grass. noticed that there were quite a few of these round holes. The ants in front all entered them without hesitation.

In the blink of an eye, the giant ant under Tang Huan also brought him into the cave.

The round hole was like stone yet not like stone, not like jade yet not like jade, continuously exuding a white luster, causing the inside of the hole to not be gloomy at all, and instead appear rather bright. Moreover, after entering the hole, they began to climb up obliquely, without having to worry that the water outside would pour into the round hole.

The material that formed this cave wall was extremely special, when Tang Huan's mind entered, it was like a clay ox entering the ocean, no wonder it was able to block his senses.

Tang Huan lamented in her heart.

The ant rapidly advanced. After just a few thousand meters, the round hole and the other round hole merged into one. The ants that poured in from the two round holes also converged together. They then rapidly ran through the wider passage. After another few thousand meters, a second reunion occurred. Then a third time, a fourth time …

The greater the advance, the larger the round hole would be, and the larger the army of ants.

Tang Huan's mind had long followed the passageway and extended outwards, so she already had a lot of understanding towards this area. The convergence of this round hole and colony of ants continued to take place nearby. Moreover, after the ninth gathering, circular tunnels began to appear horizontally, connecting the rest of the tunnels together.

Not only that, there were even new tunnels leading upwards and downwards which began to appear, and the tunnel that Tang Huan was in instead extended outwards in a flat and flat manner.

The appearance of a large number of new tunnels caused the already enormous colony of ants to begin to split apart.

This maze was obviously the nest of the ants.

Tang Huan had already caught sight of the existence of the Heavenly King Ants. They had all entered the deepest part of the nest, and were about a few hundred kilometers away from Tang Huan. However, the results of her investigations had surprised Tang Huan. In that place, there were more than six Sky King Stage ants, but there were two more.

Out of the two new ones, one had an aura that was about the same as the ant king and was also about the standard of a middle level Sky King. Perhaps it was the queen of this ant colony, and the other one was about the same as the other five ants. The number of ants in the sky should have also increased.

"Huh?"

After a short moment, Tang Huan exclaimed in shock.

The ant that carried him did not proceed any further. Instead, it met up with the Queen of Ants and the Queen of Ants. After extending for several thousand meters, the passageway split into two. One continued to go forward, but the other actually turned and headed outside.

Dozens of ants made the same choice.

Tang Huan realised that all of these giant ants were at the peak of the Ninth Level of the Sky Marquis. Excluding the eight Sky Kings, they could all be considered strong in this ant colony. Tang Huan had a conjecture that this group of giant ants was probably equivalent to soldiers among the ordinary ants.

Not long after, another long passageway appeared before them.

There were many holes in the tunnel that had a radius of several meters lined up neatly. Through the holes, he could clearly see what was happening outside.
