Immortality: Raising an Ant Queen to Cultivate by increasing stat points Chapter 453: 445: The Golden Crow Appears, The Jade Rabbit E

Chapter 453: Chapter 445: The Golden Crow Appears, The Jade Rabbit Erges_1

To verify his conjecture, Qin Niu sent another termite to approach that firefly.

Just like with the Green Ring Worker Bees, the mont it got within half a foot of the firefly, the termite suddenly flipped over on the ground, its six legs twitched a few tis, and then it lay still. A wisp of ghostly light also appeared on its head and quickly faded away.

Qin Niu felt a chill run down his spine.

If these fireflies were so formidable, who could withstand them if the Nine Insects Gang Leader simply released them to kill the enemy?

However, the Nine Insects Gang Leader did not do so, and there must be a hidden reason behind it.

The Nine Insects Gang Leader was no kind soul. If she could have used the fireflies to wipe out all her enemies, she would have done so long ago. She wouldn’t have had to struggle to use the Falling Moon Sword Technique in a life-and-death fight with the Black Tiger Gang Leader.

This ant the fireflies must have a weakness.

Just like those who practice defensive cultivation techniques and are impervious to blade and spear, they usually have a vulnerable point, also known as a lethal acupoint.

This kind of lethal acupoint, concerning their wealth and lives, wouldn’t be revealed even to their closest confidants.

What is the ‘lethal acupoint’ of the fireflies?

Qin Niu racked his brains in ponderous thought.

Termites, bees—all just needed to get within half a foot of the fireflies to die, and he estimated that the sa outco would be true for other insects sent into battle.

The only thod he could think of to counter the fireflies at the mont was to have the Ghost Ants and Puppet Ants use ntal attacks.

This was a thod of remote attack, which could kill or capture the fireflies without having to get close to them.

Still, as Gongsun Jin also ntioned, the fireflies are highly prone to self-destruct, so it’s better to be safe than sorry.

If he got tainted with their Soul Devouring Nether Fla, Qin Niu’s fate might be the sa as the dead Green Ring Worker Bee.

“Fourth, lead the Ghost Ants and Puppet Ants to eradicate those fireflies with all their might. You can manipulate them to fight each other to death.”

Qin Niu issued the combat order.

Although he had a way to deal with the fireflies, there were two questions he still couldn’t figure out.

First, what exactly is the lethal acupoint of the fireflies? Second, where did the fireflies suddenly co from—was it invisibility or so other ans?

Pop!

Pop!

One after another, the fireflies self-destructed when they were controlled or attacked.

When they exploded, a large number of glows scattered all around, with a force akin to that of miniature bombs.

Qin Niu initially thought that the fireflies’ vulnerable point might be the Soul Devouring Nether Fla produced by their self-destruct.

This fla was vicious beyond compare, specializing in burning the soul.

Just a touch would be enough to burn soone to death.

After being splashed, they should also get burned to death.

However, he soon realized his deduction was wrong. The fireflies were completely immune to this Soul Devouring Nether Fla. Even when splashed, they remained unhard.

In addition, he had roughly asured the blast radius of the fireflies through actual combat, and it reached as far as three ters away.

This power was truly terrifying.

“Young man, I seem to have underestimated you!”

The Nine Insects Gang Leader sensed that the fireflies were dying off constantly and imdiately checked the situation. She quickly realized it had sothing to do with Qin Niu.

Being able to kill her fireflies silently and without a trace was not sothing any ordinary Insect Master could achieve.

“Once I have taken down Gongsun Jin, you’re next!”

The Nine Insects Gang Leader was firmly blocked by the Black Tiger Gang Leader, making it impossible to deal with Qin Niu and Gongsun Jin simultaneously. Now that she had finally injured Gongsun Jin, she naturally didn’t want to miss this excellent opportunity.

She once again executed the second move of the Falling Moon Sword Technique, preparing to finish off Gongsun Jin first.

Qin Niu was not one to be frightened that easily.

Being cautious in his actions didn’t an he was faint-hearted.

Taking advantage of the Nine Insects Gang Leader being preoccupied, Qin Niu led the Termite Army to furiously slaughter those terrifying fireflies.

He always felt that these fireflies were quite special. To simply let them self-destruct seed like a wasteful way to deal with them. How wonderful it would be if he could keep the whole carcass to feed the Ant Queen and other insect pets!

But those fireflies’ Soul Devouring Nether Flas were too frightening, and Qin Niu truly dared not carry them on his person.

He had no choice but to abandon this idea.

“My fate is sealed!”

Gongsun Jin had just exhausted all his strength to block that sword qi and had deeply realized just how terrifying the Falling Moon Sword Technique could be.

He had no confidence in blocking a second wave of sword qi.

As he saw a large number of fireflies above his head and many more approaching from behind, he knew he could not escape.

He could only be forced by those fireflies to step forward.

As if voluntarily moving closer to the Nine Insects Gang Leader.

It sowhat felt like he was delivering himself to the Nine Insects Gang Leader to be slaughtered.

“Hei Ying, since you are beyond persuasion, I have no choice but to offend you.”

Seeing the situation was dire, the Black Tiger Gang Leader couldn’t just watch Gongsun Jin be killed.

The Black Tiger Gang Leader’s expression turned grave.

“Rebel!”

He spat out the word forcefully.

Then he swung his sword towards the sky, and the strong wind made his robes billow with a whistling sound.

The heavens and earth seed to brighten suddenly, giving the sensation of a high sun shining brightly.

Qin Niu felt puzzled and took a brief glance.

With just that glance, he almost cried out in shock. Above the Black Tiger Gang Leader’s head, a proud sun appeared, blazing red with a diater of two to three zhang, glittering with golden light.

If not for the setting sun still hanging in the sky, Qin Niu would have believed that the sun had been brought down by the Black Tiger Gang Leader.

Conjuring a sun with human strength was a bewildering and shocking ability indeed.

Could an Immortal Master’s thods be so powerful?

“You, your Sun Pursuing Sword Technique has reached perfection, capable of gathering the Golden Crow with your sword, you’re confident against . To protect that scoundrel’s in-laws, you reveal your trump card without hesitation, is this guilt by association? It seems that scoundrel holds a very high status in your heart!”

Watching the Black Tiger Gang Leader execute the Sun Pursuing Sword Technique, the Nine Insects Gang Leader instantly lost her confidence in winning with swordsmanship.

Clearly, the Black Tiger Gang Leader’s swordsmanship was superior to hers.

If the fight continued, she would not be able to stand against the Black Tiger Gang Leader.

“Withdraw the troops! I will not kill you!”

The Black Tiger Gang Leader said indifferently.

“Hmph, you think by using the Sun Pursuing Sword Technique you can defeat , you’re probably still lacking a bit.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she let out a cold, eerie laugh and lifted her veil to consu an elixir.

Then, she started to wield her sword with rapid movents.

It seed to be a strenuous effort.

“The Golden Crow appears, the Jade Rabbit erges!”

As soon as her words ended, a faint crescent moon appeared above her head.

Both were going all out, their strengths evenly matched.

One successfully gathered the Golden Crow’s phantom, while the other the crescent moon’s phantom.

The Falling Moon Sword Technique and the Sun Pursuing Sword Technique were both top-tier sword techniques.

Qin Niu’s understanding of martial skills was completely refreshed.

The two began clashing swords, each blow swift and violent, overpowering each other with sheer force.

Every exchange carried the power to destroy heaven and earth, making it impossible for anyone to approach.

Such was the terrifying strength of an Immortal Master.

It made Qin Niu even more envious, yearning to break through to such an ultimate realm as soon as possible.

At the mont, all he could do was speed up the killing of those fireflies, helping Gongsun Jin make a bloody path to escape.

After killing about four to five hundred fireflies, the Nine Insects Gang Leader started to falter a bit.

Those fireflies were one of her most powerful insects, nurtured with great difficulty, and now they were being killed off in large numbers, causing her heart to bleed.
