It caused the blue crystal to turn into a spiritual liquid. Zong Shou then mixed in a few drops of his essence blood and dripped it onto the ant queen egg shell.
Only to see that the purple gold egg shell instantly gave out a few streaks of light. The blue liquid seeped into the eggshell without any hindrance. Even the heart locking formation that Zong Shou drew before was seeped in.
Only the Taixuan heart locking soul settling talisman was unable to enter. It was blocked outside by a power within the egg.
Zong Shou scoffed. With a thought, a red flame burned in his palm as he mercilessly tossed it onto the egg shell. The impact of the flame power completely shattered that force. The Taixuan heart locking soul settling talisman also started to burn, turning into a thin blue dot and charging into the egg shell.
In the next instance, as Zong Shou kept the flame. In this space, the spiritual energy that had already condensed into a physical form suddenly surged over.
Zong Shou was prepared. On himself and Zong Yuan, as well as the protector beasts, he buffed a diamond body protecting talisman. Even the seven-star spell altar below cut off the tens of spiritual veins that were connected.
The beasts and evil demons outside weren't prepared at all and were struck by the vast spiritual energy. Their bodies instantly lost balance, some of them even had the vital energy in their bodies go berserk.
However, Zong Shou didn't have the time to care about himself. Even the Flying Leaf Sword Formation was totally messed up by the spiritual wave. He didn't have the time to bother about the commotion outside of the spell altar.
In front of his eyes, the purple gold ant queen egg had already risen into the air and hung in mid-air.
The spiritual veins around were forcefully sucked over and locked onto the fist-sized egg shell. Large amounts of spiritual energy crazily injected in.
Within this small space, there were even traces of lightning that were faintly produced, spreading and sweeping in all directions.
Zong Shou also took a few hits. Luckily, he had many talismans on him. Long Ruo and the other two, along with that grade 7 expert surnamed Li, had hundreds of grade 7 body protecting talismans in their heaven and earth bags. If one was broken, then he would use another one.
Not only was he unharmed. On the other side, Zong Yuan, the lightning winged flood dragon and the others looked like they were in a bad state. However, under his protection, they were also fine.
On the contrary, the few evil demons without physical bodies were all smashed into dust under the spiritual energy strikes and lightning strikes. However, who knows where the evil crystals that were left behind were swept to by the spiritual wave.
Who knows how long had passed, when Zong Shou was a little numb as he opened the twenty-fourth grade 7 body protecting talisman. The purple-gold Ant Queen's Egg finally stopped swallowing the blood. The surrounding spiritual wave also slowly calmed down.
Zong Shou and Zong Yuan's eyes flashed as they all looked over. Then, they saw the egg shell give out a cracking sound as it finally broke apart.
A small thing pierced out from within. However, it wasn't the purple gold that Zong Shou expected, nor was it the pure black of the demon fire crystal ant. Instead, it was silver-white and extremely beautiful. It was totally different from the image of the demon fire crystal ant queen on the ant zhenren's body.
Its body was like that of a human, a total of six limbs. The front two pairs were extremely sharp blades at the tip. The back pair were like human legs that could stand upright. On its back were six pairs of cicada like transparent wings, looking extremely majestic and solemn.
At this moment, Zong Shou was totally startled. His new protector beast, apart from the two pairs of blade limbs, it still maintained the characteristics of the bug race. Its other appearance was similar to a living being known as a featherman that he had seen in another world in his last life. It didn't even have the iconic compound eyes of the bug race.
Those six pairs of wings lightly flapped. Around its body, there were white flames burning, filled with a pure and holy aura.
He only felt that his brain was a mess, no matter what he couldn't understand. The queen of the demon fire crystal ant, along with the blood of the spirit salamander that was seen as an evil beast, how did it give birth to such a weird living being? It was totally out of his understanding.
Zong Yuan frowned, a hint of disappointment appearing in his eyes.
"Only grade 6 …"
Any god beast would give birth to a descendant that was at least grade 7.
However, Zong Yuan himself didn't expect this demon fire crystal ant queen to be able to reach the heavens in one step.
Only before this, this ant egg absorbed the souls of a hundred thousand crystal ants along with the essence of their flesh and blood.
Then, it merged with an entire piece of ten thousand bug essence to absorb ocean amounts of heaven and earth spiritual energy.
It gave off such a huge aura, but in the end after breaking out of the shell it was still grade 6, how disappointing.
Zong Shou slightly shook his head, his expression was really solemn as he looked on carefully. That silver human shape wasn't the size of a normal person, the size of two index fingers. Its body was like that of a human female, extremely weak and delicate. Its eyes were tightly shut, its facial features were like that of a machine, like that of an elf.
However, at this moment for some reason, in his heart, he felt an extremely sharp and fierce intent hidden within that small and thin body. He instinctively felt that something wasn't right, the wariness in his heart rose to the maximum.
Just a few breaths later, he saw the human-shaped ant queen suddenly open its eyes. It was a pair of purple-gold eyes, filled with sharp killing intent.
With a flash of his body, he charged over like a bolt of lightning. Even Zong Yuan wasn't able to react before it arrived in front of Zong Shou.
Two pairs of half-foot long knives slashed toward Zong Shou's neck. The Diamond Body Protection Technique buffed on his body was like thin paper as it was instantly smashed into pieces by the knife.
Sōmorime's eyes squinted. He was prepared and wasn't afraid of the sudden assassination of this human-shaped ant queen.
The sword in his hand directly slashed out, blocking in front of the two pairs of knives. Following which, with a sharp 'keng', he felt a shocking strength spread over, forcing him back tens of steps and nearly falling off the top of the spell altar. His chest rose up and down, his vital energy surging. Under the impact of that energy, his nine chakra meridians were nearly shattered inch by inch.
Since the human-shaped ant queen's knife didn't succeed, its body flashed once more, turning and charging in the air, avoiding the long spear that Zong Yuan stabbed out. It once again charged towards Zong Shou.
However, this time, before the human-shaped ant queen got close, it heard Zong Shou scoff coldly.
"Bastard, how dare you!"
A soul power fluctuation suddenly spread out from between Zong Shou's brows. It didn't activate any spiritual energy, just purely covering the area. A talisman also lit up at the center of the human-shaped ant queen's brows. Following which, its entire body suddenly fell downwards, smashing onto the ground. It was suppressed by Zong Shou's soul power, firmly locking onto its soul, unable to move at all.
At this moment, the few protector beasts beside Zong Shou all reacted. The Lightning Winged Flood Dragon stretched its head beside Zong Shou, its eyes filled with killing intent as it stared at the human-shaped ant queen not far away.
The Rising Moon Lion and Demon Eye Silver Bear all showed signs of wariness, moving closer to Zong Shou.
Little Gold was the same, but at this moment, it actually left Zong Shou's arm. It flew into the air, turning into the shape of a dragon. It was like the legendary giant yellow dragon, its entire body an earth yellow color. Its body actually gave out a bit of dragon aura.
It made the Lightning Winged Flood Dragon really confused, specially looking at Little Gold, thinking to itself that this fellow was of the same kind as it.
When Zong Shou suppressed the intent of the human-shaped ant queen, only then did he notice the changes in Little Gold.
Immediately, he was secretly delighted, but he also felt incomparably surprised. He knew that this fellow's ability to mimic objects had improved to the high grade under the stimulation of the danger just now. It could already mimic living beings. At this moment, the giant yellow dragon that it had transformed into, apart from its body being a little smaller. It could be said to be extremely lifelike.
It actually grasped such an ability at the peak of grade 5. He remembered that in the last life, in the hands of that person, Little Gold was only able to mimic the form of a god beast when it reached grade 6.
However, at this moment, he didn't have time to carefully observe the changes in Little Gold's body. He only felt that the human-shaped ant queen had an unyielding will to resist charging out from within its body, going against the Taixuan heart locking soul settling talisman at its brow, struggling to break free from Zong Shou's control.
On the other side, Zong Yuan was filled with shock, "This little thing is so quick! Is it really grade 6? "
His maniac lightning spear was originally one of the fastest spear techniques in the world, using lightning and electromagnetism to push it. Within the same grade, there were only a few that could go up against his maniac lightning spear.
However, this human-shaped ant queen was several times faster than his spear. When it flew, it seemed to have turned into a golden light, such that his eyes were unable to catch sight of it.
This speed had far exceeded the level of those grade 7 beasts. Even grade 8 and grade 9 god beasts that were famous for their speed couldn't compare to it.
Was this thing really only at the sixth level? What kind of monster was it, to be so terrifying?
Zong Shou was also filled with doubt, injecting his soul power over to support the talisman to continue suppressing it. On the other hand, he was in deep thought. After a short while, his eyes lit up, "It isn't a god beast but a heaven and earth variant! This ant queen should be grade 7 without a doubt, suppressing its own grade! "
Zong Yuan's expression was one of shock. He roughly knew what the so-called heaven and earth variant was. It wasn't a god beast but it wasn't any weaker.
Most of them were born from vengeful energy and weren't recognized by heaven and earth. They were envied by the will of heaven which was why they weren't listed as god beasts.
During the cloud desolate era, there were rumors of such beasts. They were often unique in heaven and earth, with no others of the same kind. They were accompanied by numerous dangers and killing intents. In their lives, they would kill numerous people. Unless they could grow to a realm above heaven and earth, they would often end up in a tragic state. Naturally, their combat strength far exceeded normal beasts.
At this moment, Zong Shou thought back to the ten thousand bug essence that he had seeped into the eggshell.
At this moment, even a fool would understand that there was definitely something mysterious within this thing. If not, just the spirit salamander blood and ten thousand ant essence wouldn't be able to achieve such an effect. The only thing he didn't know was where venerable Xuanlang obtained those things from. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
