The Light Ancestor Earth Abyss was a land of extreme fire, and also a land of extreme day.
Flames surged in the air, and the earth emitted light as the boundless Fusang Forest grew. The light here grew endlessly, causing the underground to be as bright as day. There was no night.
As the Light Clan's forbidden land, the Light Ancestor's Abyss had an extremely complicated and dangerous environment. Countless ancient formations had been left behind. If one didn't have the cultivation of a Saint, it would be impossible to charge around in the Earth Abyss. This was because no one could tell which ray of light or which wisp of flame was disguised by a supreme restriction. If one accidentally bumped into it, they would either die or be injured.
Even someone as strong as Ning Fan had to move forward cautiously after entering this place. He did not dare to fly too fast.
He had to carefully examine the surrounding restrictions, and even more so, he had to pay attention to a kind of vicious creature unique to this place — the light ant.
It was a kind of ant that was as large as a calf. Its body was transparent and completely made of light. It had short wings and could crawl or fly.
This kind of light ant usually appeared in groups. Their individual cultivation was not high, but they were very good at fusing attacks and could not be underestimated. Ning Fan had just flown several tens of thousands of li * (500m per li) in the Earth Abyss and he had already encountered a few attacks from the light ants. At this moment, there were another forty plus light ants blocking his way.
This time, most of the light ants that appeared were just at the Void Fragmentation Realm. However, when more than forty of them turned into rays of light and fused together, a Human Profound Realm light ant appeared in front of Ning Fan.
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
The Human Profound Light Ant spat out three light bullets at Ning Fan consecutively. If it was a Human Profound Realm cultivator, he would certainly be extremely afraid of such a situation. However, Ning Fan was naturally not afraid of this light ant. With a flick of his sleeve, the light bullets that were flying towards him were absorbed into his sleeve and vanished without a sound.
Then, he casually threw out a Tribulation Flash. The Human Black Light Ant let out a miserable shriek and was killed by Ning Fan.
"These light ants seem to be the thing that gives the Light Race a headache …"
Ning Fan knitted his brows. Almost as soon as he arrived at the Light Clan, he directly entered the Light Ancestor's Earth Abyss. Even though he had spread out his Rain Sense before, he did not purposely gather information in the Light Clan. When he spread out his Divine Consciousness, he heard some Light Race clansmen discussing the problem of the light ants in the abyss. Now that he saw these light ants, he naturally had some guesses.
"Hmm? This is … "
Ning Fan's eyes moved slightly. At the place where the Human Profound Light Ant had fallen, the scattered light suddenly gathered and formed a tattered light pearl.
This kind of light pearl was called the Light Ant Inner Elixir by the cultivators of the Light Clan. It was something similar to a Dao fruit. After eating it, it could directly increase one's cultivation. It seemed that the cultivators of the Light Clan had come to the Earth Abyss for training because they wanted to hunt for these inner cores.
Along the way, Ning Fan had killed quite a number of light ants. However, it was his first time getting an inner core. It was obvious that the probability of producing an inner core was not high, which was similar to the Dao Fruit.
This was a Human Profound Inner Core, but its classification was not just based on the Human Profound Inner Core. It seemed like in the Light Clan, there were different grades of inner cores such as' damaged inner cores' and 'outstanding inner cores'. Ning Fan did not know much about them and he was not interested in them either.
After casually keeping the inner core into his storage pouch, Ning Fan continued to move forward. His Rain Sense tried to explore deeper into the abyss. Unfortunately, his Rain Sense could not spread too far.
The interior of the Light Ancestor Earth Abyss had too great of a restriction on spirit sense and senses. It could not be helped. Ning Fan had no choice but to use the power of the Treasure Searching Compass to sense this place.
According to the Treasure Searching Compass, there were a total of twelve levels in this abyss. Each level was a region with different landforms. The area that Ning Fan was currently in was just the first level. Bei Xiaoman was not on this level. Instead, she was in a lower level.
"Help! Help! "
After walking for an unknown period of time, a cry for help suddenly came from the front, causing Ning Fan's footsteps to slow down.
To his surprise! On the ground in front of him, there were four steeds that were burning with golden flames pulling a golden chariot, running for their lives. Behind the chariot, there were six to seven hundred light ants that were the size of calves. Their eyes glinted with ferocious light as they chased after the chariot.
Each of those light ants had a cultivation base above the Void Fragmentation Realm. There were five Life Immortal Light Ants and one True Light Ant.
On the chariot, there were more than ten young men who came here to train. When they were suddenly chased by six to seven hundred light ants, these inexperienced young men were almost scared to death.
They were either the descendants of the Dao Children of the ancient sects or the direct descendants of the ancient monsters. Each of them had a great background.
They came here to train, but they did not expect that the Light Ant Hunting Event that happened once every ten thousand years would actually happen in advance!
"Brother, are we going to die here?! Father clearly said that the Light Ant Hunting Event would only happen once every ten thousand years, but this time, the Light Ant Hunting Event actually happened six thousand years earlier than the scheduled time! If it was during normal times, most of the light ants would need to hibernate. Naturally, they would not take the initiative to attack us. We only need to find some small ant nests and dig out some light ants to kill. But this time, we actually encountered the Light Ant Hunting Event! I don't want to die. I don't want to die! "
Inside the chariot, a young girl who was inexperienced cried out in fear of the light ants chasing after her. She pulled her brother's sleeve and held on tightly, shivering in fear.
Her name was Lin Qingyue. She was the first young lady of the Lin Family.
The young man that she called brother was the eldest son of the Lin Family, the eldest young master. At the same time, he was also the one with the highest cultivation among the ten or so Northern Sky youths. He was half a step into the Human Profound Realm. But even with this little cultivation, he could only feel powerless against the pursuit of the light ant army.
"Don't cry! You must calm down! The chariot that we are riding on is the [Sun Chariot] that we rented from the Light Clan. This chariot uses light as its driving force. As long as there is light in the surroundings, it can move without stopping. This chariot's speed is extremely fast and its defense is also strong. We can continue to use this chariot to escape and wait for the Light Clan to come to our rescue … "
Young Master Lin forced himself to calm down and comforted his sister. But in the next moment, he could no longer remain calm.
Boom!
A light bullet with the power of Space Rend hit the chariot!
The chariot was attacked by the light ants again!
While escaping, the chariot had already been attacked by the light ants countless times. But because the defense of the Sun Chariot was extremely strong, it could almost ignore all attacks below the late stage of Crossing Truth. The light bullets from before did not cause much damage to the Sun Chariot.
But the attack this time was different!
The Sun Chariot actually had a hole in it!
This time, the light bullets actually reached the power of Space Rend!
"Not good! Those light ants have fused! That Crossing Truth Light Ant has fused with the other light ants and turned into a Space Rend Light Ant! "
Young Master Lin's expression finally changed drastically!
The Space Rend Light Ant was enough to easily destroy this Sun Chariot. Once the chariot was destroyed, their lives would be in danger!
Hiss hiss hiss!
More light bullets were shot out by the Space Rend Light Ant. The Sun Chariot was completely destroyed. The group of Northern Sky youths fell to the ground with their faces covered in dirt. They could only watch as the Space Rend Light Ant that was the size of a small mountain approached them while drooling.
The thing that light ants loved to eat the most during their hunting period was meat!
They would be eaten!
"No, don't eat me …"
Lin Qingyue was actually so scared that her pants were wet. She fell to the ground and could not even stand up!
She had never experienced life and death before. Her clan had protected her too well!
She had a Void Fragmentation cultivation, but she simply did not have the courage to match it!
Just when she thought that she was going to die for sure, a scarlet pillar of light suddenly descended from the sky and turned the dignified Space Rend Light Ant into dust in one move!
How powerful!
It was like a miracle!
Lin Qingyue raised her head in a daze. What she saw was a young man in white robes with peerless elegance. He stood in the air like an unrivaled god.
"He killed the Space Rend Light Ant with just a single move! This person is at least Senior Nian Xian! "The group of Northern Sky youths who had just survived the calamity were pleasantly surprised. All of them knelt on the ground and thanked Ning Fan profusely.
Lin Qingyue was the only one who had yet to recover from the shock. She was in a daze and forgot to thank him.
"Sister! Quickly thank Senior. You're being too rude! "Her elder brother reprimanded her in a low voice.
Lin Qingyue panicked. Only then did she realize what had happened. Her mouth was agape and she was tongue-tied. She wanted to thank Ning Fan, but after hearing Ning Fan's words, she naturally did not dare to interrupt him. Thus, she swallowed all of her gratitude.
"Do you have a map of the Earth Abyss?" Ning Fan landed on the ground and asked Young Master Lin who was the leader of the group. He did not care whether others thanked him or not.
"Yes. The map is here. If Senior needs it, you can take it." Young Master Lin respectfully handed over a copy of the map. He had bought this map from the Light Clan at a high price.
Ning Fan scanned it with his spirit sense and instantly made a copy of the map. He returned the original copy to Young Master Lin and turned to leave.
However, after taking a few steps, Ning Fan suddenly paused and looked at Lin Qingyue with a strange expression. He seemed to have sensed something.
It was a very strange feeling.
This young lady gave him an indescribable feeling. The last time he had this kind of feeling was when he met Si Yingyue and Su Manyue by chance.
"What's your name …?" Ning Fan asked with a frown.
"M-My name is Lin Qingyue …" Lin Qingyue's face immediately turned red when an unfamiliar man asked for her name.
"Lin Qingyue? Why do you have this name …? "Ning Fan's frown deepened.
"Replying, replying to Senior's question, this is the name that my mother gave me. My mother said that people have sorrows and joys, the moon has waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning, waxing and waning and waning, waxing and wan
Ning Fan was not asking about the reason why she had this name.
He was asking about something else.
Si Yingyue, Su Manyue and then Lin Qingyue …
Ning Fan seemed to be able to sense some kind of extremely close karma from Lin Qingyue. However, it also felt like … it was just an illusion.
"I will draw a circle on the ground. You guys stay inside the circle and don't come out. I can guarantee your safety. Someone will come and save you later."
The purpose of this trip was to save Bei Xiaoman. Ning Fan did not really want to pay attention to this young lady called Lin Qingyue. It was even more impossible for him to stay here and protect these people. Just like how he treated Si Yingyue and Su Manyue, Ning Fan quietly left a trace of spirit sense in Lin Qingyue's body. Then, he drew a circle of rain on the ground with the power of the Yin Yang Rain, encircling all the young elites of the Northern Sky.
Then, he left.
Seeing Ning Fan's departure, Lin Qingyue's beautiful eyes dimmed. She actually felt an indescribable sense of loss. She did not know why but it felt like a reunion that she had been waiting for countless eras to pass by …
On the other hand, some of the young elites of the Northern Sky who were led by Young Master Lin heaved a sigh of relief after Ning Fan left. The pressure they felt when they were in front of Ning Fan was too great.
"Do any of you know who this senior is?"
"He actually asked Brother Lin for a map. It seems like he isn't a member of the Light Clan but a cultivator who came from the outside world."
"He should be someone sent by the Four Profound Sects to deal with the light ants …"
"Terrifying. This is too terrifying! I initially thought that this senior is a Thought Shattering Realm cultivator but it turns out that he isn't! Look at the circle! This is definitely a circle drawn by someone who is close to the Sovereign Realm. As long as we stay inside the circle, even the Thought Shattering Light Ants won't be able to break the circle easily and hurt us! "
"He's actually close to the Sovereign Realm! Could it be that this senior is a Great Sovereign of the Northern Sky who has been living in seclusion?! He's too strong! "
All the youths were extremely excited. Their admiration for this mysterious senior had already been gushing out endlessly while they were still in the circle.
…
Ning Fan had entered the underground abyss in a hurry. He was confident in his Rain Technique. However, after entering this place, he realized that he still needed a map.
With a map, he would be able to choose the fastest route to get to where Bei Xiaoman was. As for saving the other young elites of the Northern Sky who came here to train, did it have anything to do with him? If he met them, it would be fate and he could save them. If he didn't, it would be fate. Since they dared to come here to train, they needed to be responsible for their actions and be aware that they might die.
"Hmm? I see … So this Light Ancestor Earth Abyss is the birthplace of the Light Clan. There are twelve levels in the Earth Abyss. Each level used to have an ancient immortal kingdom. In ancient times, the twelve immortal kingdoms formed an alliance and formed a clan together. That was how the Light Clan came to be. The first level that I'm at now is the ruins of the Light Tree Country. There are a total of seven entrances that lead to the second level. The closest entrance to this place is located in the ruins of the capital of the Light Tree Country. Ordinary people wouldn't go through this entrance if they want to go to the second level. They would rather take a longer route because this entrance is extremely dangerous … "
Dangerous. It is indeed very dangerous.
If the Treasure Searching Compass is not wrong, there is a Half-Saint Realm qi sleeping in the direction of the capital of the Light Tree Country.
There seems to be a Half-Saint Realm light ant there. Ordinary people would not take this path because it might disturb the ant's slumber and cause it to attack.
However, Ning Fan was different.
He did not like to take a longer route!
In this Light Ancestor Earth Abyss, there were killing restrictions everywhere. He could not fly too fast. If he wants to reach Bei Xiaoman as soon as possible, he would need to take a shortcut!
After deciding on the direction, Ning Fan flew at full speed. After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he arrived at an ancient ruin.
This place used to be the capital of a country that was built in a forest.
The scale of the capital was not small. It could accommodate millions of cultivators. Now, however, only ruins remained. The entrance to the second level was located at the central area of the capital.
* Hiss * * Hiss *
Sensing Ning Fan's approach, light ants kept crawling out from the abandoned buildings. Millions of them flapped their short wings and flew into the sky. Then, they sprayed light bullets at Ning Fan!
"How troublesome … Little Cat 'er, don't you like fighting? Come out and fight with me."
Ning Fan released Little Cat 'er and Aphrodite. He even summoned the Netherworld Ghost Flower!
As a result, Ning Fan did not even need to take action personally. In less than the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, the millions of light ants were all killed by his army.
Hundreds of inner cores exploded. The formation rate of them was much lower than Dao Fruits of the same grade.
Ning Fan kept all the inner cores that exploded into his storage pouch. As for Ning Fan's group, their wanton slaughter of the light ants had enraged the seven powerful light ants that were hibernating in this place.
The ground of the Light Tree Country suddenly cracked open. Seven incomparably huge light ants crawled out from the ground!
There were six Immortal Emperor Realm light ants and one Half-Holy Realm light ant!
The Immortal Emperor Realm light ants were the same as ordinary light ants. All of them were golden and shiny.
Only the Half Holy Light Ant took human form with a sway of his body. He was a burly man clad in azure armor.
"Meat … Eat meat …" Facing Ning Fan's delicious flesh and blood, the six Immortal Emperor Realm light ants all drooled with extremely acidic saliva.
Unlike the low-grade light ants, the Immortal Emperor Realm light ants could actually speak simple words. Unfortunately, their spiritual intelligence was still too low! Ordinary Immortal Emperors would definitely be afraid when they saw the Soul Sucking Half-Holy Realm treant summoned by Ning Fan. However, they were not afraid at all.
However, the burly man in green armor was extremely fearful of Ning Fan's group!
There was nothing wrong with his intelligence! Ning Fan's words woke him up. He was originally very angry. However, at this moment, he was shocked by the formation of Ning Fan's group. He was filled with fear. After letting out a strange roar, he stopped the gluttonous Immortal Emperor Light Ants from attacking Ning Fan.
"You don't seem to be from the Light Tribe or the Four Meridians Sect. Are you here to meddle in the Holy Ant Sect's business?" the green-armored man questioned.
At the same time, he merged the surrounding six Immortal Emperor Light Ants into his body.
Even though he was a half-sage, he wasn't too far from a demi-sage. Therefore, after absorbing the six Light Ants, his cultivation level skyrocketed to the first level of a demi-sage!
Upon seeing this, Ning Fan immediately frowned.
If this man was just a Half-Saint, he wouldn't mind killing him with an illusion technique. However, if the man had the ability to display the strength of a Half-Saint, then it wouldn't be easy to deal with him. Once the battle started, it would be a waste of time and he might not be able to win for sure.
Ning Fan could see that the fusion of the light ants was not permanent. After a certain period of time, they would separate from each other. Even with this flaw, this kind of fusion could be said to be heaven-defying.
It was no wonder that the existence of the light ants gave the Light Tribe a headache.
The Half-Saint Light Ants could display the strength of a first level demi-sage by merging with their own kind.
Most of the first level demi-sage ants could also display the strength of a second level demi-sage through the fusion.
It was definitely not an easy task to eliminate such Half-Saint and Half-Saint Light Ants. Ning Fan was anxious to find Bei Xiaoman and he did not want to cause any more trouble.
Besides, there seems to be more than one Half-Saint Light Ant here … Ning Fan looked at a certain direction with a thoughtful expression.
"I don't know what the Holy Ant Sect is and I don't want to meddle in your business either. I'm here to save someone and I need to use the entrance of this place to enter the second floor. Can you do me a favor?" Ning Fan said in an irrefutable manner.
If the other party could not do him a favor, even if he could not kill this ant within a short period of time, he would still fight his way to the second floor!
"Hmm? A junior like you is actually the leader of this group of people? "
Ning Fan's tone was almost like an order. It was too arrogant, which made the green-armored man extremely displeased. If it wasn't because of the Half-Saint Realm experts by Ning Fan's side, he would certainly make Ning Fan pay with his ferocious nature.
However, it was a critical moment to choose the queen ant. It was not wise for him to cause unnecessary trouble …
"Humph! Fine. I can lend you the entrance to the second floor. However, if you dare to disrupt the great plan of my Holy Ant Sect, I, the Twelve Ant Generals, will never let you leave this abyss alive! "
As soon as he finished speaking, the green-armored man went back into the ground. However, his spirit sense was still locked on Ning Fan. Obviously, he would immediately retaliate if Ning Fan makes any strange moves.
Ning Fan did not say much and kept the Netherworld Ghost Flower back. The undying ghost soldiers summoned by the Netherworld Ghost Flower could not be brought along.
However, he did not keep Aphrodite, Little Cat 'er and Inextinguishable Lightning Nascent Soul. Instead, he kept them by his side as his subordinates.
The moment they entered the second floor, Ning Fan asked Aphrodite and Little Cat 'er using telepathy.
"Holy Ant Sect. I've never heard of it … Have you heard of it?"
"No …" Aphrodite shook her head.
"It sounds a little familiar but I can't remember …" Even though she said she could not remember, Little Cat 'er who had turned into her human form was drooling non-stop. She always felt that the name Holy Ant Sect was very delicious …
"It's fine if you don't know. Let's be more careful. Don't get involved in the dispute of the Holy Ant Sect. The Holy Ant Sect is certainly not an ordinary sect since it could prevent the Light Clan from being completely eradicated for countless years. I'm afraid the Holy Ant Sect has a lot to do with the chaos in the Earth Abyss this time … "Ning Fan said solemnly.
…
A long time after Ning Fan left, the green-armored man went back into the ground. He took the initiative to cancel the fusion and released the six Immortal Emperor Light Ants that had fused with his body.
At the moment he canceled the fusion, a bright light flashed in a place where there was no one around. A beautiful lady wearing fiery red battle armor appeared.
"Humph! Your Highness Hua Huo, why did you stop me from killing him?! There is only a Quasi-Saint Realm expert beside him. If you and I work together, we can kill him and devour his flesh and blood. Isn't that a wonderful thing?! Then, you will certainly have a greater chance of competing for the Ant Queen! " The green-armored man said with displeasure. In other words, the reason why he did not attack Ning Fan was not only because he was afraid of Ning Fan but also because of the order from the lady in red armor.
"* Hehe * I have just broken through to the Quasi-Saint Realm with the help of my mother's inner core fragment. My cultivation base has yet to stabilize. You too, have only reached this level by borrowing power. You won't be able to last for long. It won't be easy for the two of us to kill this brat. "The lady in red armor whose name was Hua Huo said meaningfully.
As a Quasi-Saint Realm expert, her whereabouts were actually seen through by Ning Fan with just a glance! There's no doubt about it. Ning Fan must have discovered me with that glance just now! This brat definitely has some hidden tricks up his sleeves. I'm afraid that he is even more difficult to deal with than that Quasi-Saint Tree Man!
"Your Highness, you think too highly of that brat. If Your Highness is willing to stop that Quasi-Saint Tree Man, I can kill all the others including that brat by myself!" The green-armored man said arrogantly.
"Ke Bixiong, you are too conceited. You will certainly suffer because of this in the future." The lady in red armor said with dissatisfaction.
"Your Highness, you are right. I will certainly correct this flaw." Even though he said that he would correct his mistake, the green-armored man did not have the slightest intention to do so. Instead, his eyes darted around the lady's body boldly with a greedy expression.
The lady's face turned cold. "Mind your identity!"
"Yes!" The green-armored man frowned and straightened his eyes. However, there was a hint of disdain in his eyes.
Bitch, you won't be able to stay arrogant for long! When the Ant Queen Selection begins, you won't have any other choice even if you don't want to follow me! I will get you sooner or later! Your inner core, your body, everything about you!
