A bright moon emitted a beautiful moonlight. In the air, there were specks of falling snowflakes. At this moment, the artistic conception of the scenery was very good.
However, if you looked down at your feet, no one would think that this was a beautiful night.
Ye Kong's million-strong army hovered in the air, looking down at their feet. They all felt their hair stand on end.
The original color of the huge salt mountain, which was hundreds of feet high, could no longer be seen. Instead, it was replaced by a wriggling black color!
And from the various holes on the salt mountain, black "tides" were still gushing out like spring water! Those tides were undoubtedly the terrifying hundreds of millions of poisonous salt ants.
Ye Kong felt that the number of poisonous salt ants under the salt mountain was actually more than the number in the cave he had hidden in! It seemed like there was no end to them. It seemed like the poisonous salt ants' reproductive ability was really amazing.
The black "tides" not only covered the salt mountain, but also the entire small city and the army camp next to it! They were all swallowed! At a glance, all the colors disappeared. What entered one's eyes was only black!
The tents, the city walls, and the houses all disappeared. Black Poison Salt Ants had covered the entire area.
What made one's spine shiver was that the world was filled with rustling sounds. That sound was the sound of the poisonous salt ants moving their jaws and chewing!
The army's tents were all eaten clean! The houses in the small city were all eaten clean! The miners in the small city were even more miserable. Tens of thousands of mortals from the Immortal World had nowhere to run. They were swallowed by the poisonous salt ants and not even scraps were left.
Seeing the escaping miners being covered by the black oily ant tide and struggling to death, Ye Kong was furious. He said angrily, "Where are the immortal soldiers guarding the small city's immortal arrays tonight!? Why didn't they activate the defensive array!? "
The array that Ye Kong and the others had set up above the small city had the function of defending against beast hordes. Although it couldn't block the corrosive poisonous salt ants even if it was activated, it could at least block them for a while, allowing the miners to escape.
However, when the Immortal Soldier heard that the ant tide was coming, he was already scared stiff. How could he care about opening any spirit formations? He immediately flew up into the sky. As a result, tens of thousands of ordinary miners were unable to escape in time and were devoured by the salt ants.
Under Ye Kong's order, the immortal soldier was punished according to military law.
That immortal soldier was a soldier of the Western Qin Army. Xiao Yong said angrily, "A moment of timidity, I forgot my duty and caused the death of tens of thousands of ordinary people. Damn it! How could there be such scum in our Western Qin army! Damn it, damn it! "
Ye Kong looked at the salt mountain with a cold glint in his eyes. "What's more hateful is the person who intentionally incited the ant tide! This person deserves to die! "
Only now did everyone realize that the smell of burning Dew Congealing Grass coming from the ant tide was not a coincidence, but someone deliberately did it, inciting the ant tide to attack Ye Kong's army!
Wu Guibao also nodded and said, "This person is vicious and fierce. He actually came up with such a dirty trick. He really deserves to die!"
Wu Yongyi had always been a simple-minded person. He usually didn't like to use his brain, but when he used his brain, he could think of things that others couldn't think of. He said angrily, "This person is so vicious, I will definitely cut him into pieces! This person can sneak into the ant tide silently and burn the Dew Congealing Grass. He must be the underground killer who attacked Li Sihui and Zhong Fuping! "
Ye Kong and the others didn't think of this. Now hearing Wu Yongyi's words, they suddenly felt that it made sense. The underground killer hated Ye Kong's side very much, and his ability to escape in the soil at will also made it easy for him to do this kind of thing.
Ye Kong nodded, gritted his teeth and said, "It's very likely that it was done by this person! It seems that we have encountered a cunning and fierce guy! "
At this moment, a female immortal general walked out and said, "My Lord, these poisonous salt ants are also demonic beasts. This subordinate wants to use the Demon Beckoning Flag to try and see if it can lure these poisonous salt ants away. Perhaps it can even save some miners hiding in the houses."
When Ye Kong heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "Good! Quickly go and give it a try. "
Wu Guibao's expression changed, and he quickly said, "Immortal General Song Xiaohui, why don't you go to 4-Star Salt's main city's array and control the poisonous salt ants to attack the main city's array? Perhaps you can succeed in one fell swoop and turn a bad thing into a good thing!"
Song Xiaohui originally only thought of luring the poisonous salt ants away, but now that she heard Wu Guibao's words, she also quickly nodded. "This is a good idea! Since those poisonous salt ants can corrode our small city's defensive array, I believe the main city's defensive array can also deal with it. "
Ye Kong hurriedly said, "Immortal General Song, after all, we are not vicious people, so please stop while you're ahead. If attacking the city is effective, try not to hurt the mortals in the city."
Although Ye Kong had been in the world of Celestial Cultivation for so long, he still could not bring himself to kill innocent people mercilessly. Perhaps, to many Celestials in this world, this was just a woman's benevolence, or as Ji Xiao Lou had said, 'hypocrisy'. However, Ye Kong still did not want to change this. This was his principle.
Song Xiaohui nodded, took out the Demon Beckoning Flag, and flew in the direction of the main city.
As soon as she left, Cai Xin, who was her good friend, also flew in the direction of the main city. Song Xiaohui was an intermediate Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, but Cai Xin's cultivation base was not high. Ye Kong was afraid that something would happen to her, so he immediately ordered a group of Western Qin soldiers to follow and protect her.
"I'll go and have a look too!" Da Yu had heard about the power of the Demon Beckoning Flag, but unfortunately, she had never seen it before. Therefore, she hurriedly followed.
Not long after, a huge black banner that was eight meters tall was erected in front of the main city. Below the huge black banner, there were six smaller banners.
Under this Demon Beckoning Flag, a valiant woman was casting a spell. This woman was Celestial General Song Xiaohui. She was not sure if the Demon Beckoning Flag would work. Poisonous salt ants belonged to the category of insects. There were many Six Star Salt Beasts, but there were no poisonous salt ants. She had never tried to use the Demon Beckoning Flag to attract poisonous salt ants before.
The reason why there were no poisonous salt ants in the Six Star Salt Beasts might be that there were too many kinds of Demonic Beasts on the planet. Perhaps there were many Demonic Beasts that liked to eat poisonous salt ants and had eaten them all. Since the Demonic Beasts on these planets had gone extinct, the poisonous salt ants had become the dominant species.
However, to Song Xiaohui's delight, when she raised the tall Demon Beckoning Flag, many poisonous salt ants changed their direction and rushed over. What made people curious was that the first poisonous salt ants that rushed over were all the older and leader ants of the colony.
Obviously, the poisonous salt ants that were older and more powerful were affected by the Demon Beckoning Flag. Led by them, the low-level salt ants that were not affected by the Demon Beckoning Flag also rushed over.
After a while, a large number of poisonous salt ants surged over! Not only that, but countless poisonous salt ants also rushed over from other directions where there was no outbreak of the poisonous salt ant tide!
From afar, the black mass was even more terrifying than before. Even the soldiers of the Western Qin Army who had experienced hundreds of battles were shocked by the scene.
