The palace gate was closed, but the passageway was not very dark. Along the way, inlaid moonlight stones illuminated the black stones on both sides, reflecting colorful light.
"Why does it look like the color of metal?" Ye Kong picked up the small sword instrument, wanting to cut a piece.
"Clang!" The small sword instrument hit the stone wall, creating a few sparks, but the stone wall was undamaged.
"Why is this stone so hard? It's metal! "Ye Kong was stunned. He did not expect these stones to be made of metal, and so hard.
But then he thought, Uncle Shi was extraordinary, and these stones must be magical objects. Why not get some of them? Who knows, he might be able to use them in the future.
"Hehe, Uncle Shi, don't blame me for stealing from you." Ye Kong injected spiritual power into the small sword instrument, and then went to cut the stone.
"Clang!" The small sword instrument glowed with white light, but it could not cut the stone at all.
"Looks like I have to give up." Ye Kong tossed and turned again, but it was all in vain. The small sword magic tool was still quite powerful, it could even cut through diamonds like tofu. However, it was completely useless against these black rocks. He did not know what that Uncle Shi had used to chisel these rocks out.
Ye Kong could only give up. However, after walking for a short distance, he was surprised to discover that the stone walls on both sides of the road ahead were actually filled with densely packed small holes. The further he walked, the denser the holes became.
"What hole is this? A wormhole? Even my small sword instrument can't cut the stone, but these insects can eat through it. What kind of powerful insects are these? "Ye Kong could not help but be interested in these holes.
He took out the small sword instrument again, and wanted to cut through the holes. But he did not know what this stone-like metal was. It was very hard, and he could not cut it.
In the end, Ye Kong shook his head and gave up, and continued walking.
However, just as Ye Kong left, he saw that there was some movement in the small bug's eye on the stone wall. It was a very subtle sound, and then, he saw two small tentacles poking out from the hole, and then, a small head appeared.
Ye Kong continued walking, not noticing anything. But after a few steps, he heard something.
There was an almost inaudible vibrating sound in the air. Then, the sound actually approached him at high speed.
Ye Kong did not dare to be careless. He quickly turned around and with a wave of his sleeve, the small sword Dharma artifact slashed out.
"Dang!" A small golden spark flashed in the air, and a small needle-like object was sent flying.
What surprised Ye Kong was that the little thing didn't die after being hit by the small sword! It crashed into the ground, flipped over, and pounced forward with a buzz.
Ye Kong took a closer look and discovered that it was a white ant with golden wings that was flying towards him. A thousand-mile dike collapsed because of an ant's nest. These termites were indeed powerful. Even the small magic sword couldn't cut open the stone, but they could make so many densely packed holes.
These white ants grew up eating stones, so their bodies were surprisingly strong. Even after being slashed a few times by Ye Kong's small sword, they still didn't die!
Ye Kong was confident that if he injected his spiritual power and used the small sword to slash, even an early stage Foundation Establishment Realm immortal would not be able to withstand it. But this little termite didn't buy it at all.
"I don't believe that I, a cultivator, can't kill an ant like you!" Ye Kong was annoyed. He exerted his spiritual power to the maximum and struck again.
"Dang!" A crisp sound was heard. Ye Kong realized that the sound of metal hitting was not made by the small sword, but by the termite's body.
It seemed that this termite had eaten this hard metal for a long time, so its body had become as hard as stone.
Looking at the termite again, he saw that it was still not dead! It was just stunned by the impact just now!
Ye Kong couldn't help but be speechless. He said to himself, "This termite made me spend so much effort. If this whole nest of termites flew out …"
He didn't know if it was his jinx, but before he finished speaking, he heard rustling sounds coming from all around the stone walls.
"Oh my god, they really came!" Ye Kong complained in his heart. There were probably hundreds of thousands of holes on both sides of the stone wall. If all of them came out … Ye Kong thought that his body was definitely not as hard as the stone wall. He was afraid that in the blink of an eye, he would be eaten until nothing was left.
"Quick, dodge!" Ye Kong didn't have time to think too much. He threw out a flying sword that flashed like lightning. This passage was too narrow, so he couldn't use the flying carpet. He could only escape with a flying sword Dharma artifact that he had obtained from the Bone Spirit Sect.
Just as Ye Kong left, he saw a termite fly out of the stone wall. Then, another termite flew out. Then, more termites wriggled in the holes.
"Buzz!" The sound of a flying termite was not loud, but when there were a thousand, ten thousand, or even a hundred thousand of them, the sound was shocking.
Ye Kong flew crazily in front, and behind him, a group of termites let out a hair-raising buzzing sound. Like a torrent, they chased after him closely. Moreover, the torrent formed by the golden wings was still increasing.
"Damn you!" Ye Kong turned around and threw a chicken claw Dharma artifact, trying to disperse the group of termites behind him.
The poor Dharma artifact did not have any effect at all. In the blink of an eye, it was devoured by the angry termites.
Ye Kong stuck out his tongue. This was too much of a glutton. If he was one step slower, he would probably end up like the chicken claw Dharma artifact.
Although this passage was long, there was an end. After a while, Ye Kong saw the end. The end was really the end. It was actually a tightly shut stone door!
"Motherf * cker! Uncle Shi, you are too vicious! "Ye Kong cursed and went to his storage bag to look for the Dharma artifact.
He had killed many barbarian cultivators in the Bone Spirit Mountain and picked up all kinds of strange Dharma artifacts. Ye Kong finally found one.
"Gold-Plated Seal!" This was a square seal with a golden dragon carved on the surface. It was a middle-grade Dharma artifact and could be considered a good Dharma artifact among barbarian cultivators.
Ye Kong was a little reluctant to throw this seal out, but at this critical moment, he could not think so much.
Ye Kong threw out the Gold-Plated Seal, formed a spell with two fingers, and spat out a word, "Expand!"
The Gold-Plated Seal suddenly expanded, and the square seal faced the termites behind him, filling the passage and temporarily blocking the torrent formed by the golden wings.
"Phew." Only then did Ye Kong stop his flying sword and let out a sigh of relief. However, he knew that this peace was only temporary. This Gold-Plated Seal couldn't withstand the gnawing of those crazy termites. He estimated that within the time it took to burn a stick of incense, this Gold-Plated Seal would be buried in the termites' stomachs.
He took a breath and tried to push the two stone doors. However, no matter how much strength he used, the stone doors did not move. The stone doors were also made of the same metal on both sides, and there was a layer of restriction on the surface, so it could not be destroyed at all.
"It seems that I have to quickly think of a way to deal with the termites." Ye Kong slightly calmed down his nervous mood. Just as he was about to think, he suddenly had an idea.
"Get lost!" An ant that was not blocked by the Gold-Plated Seal actually quietly crawled to Ye Kong's feet and penetrated the protective spiritual barrier.
"I didn't expect these termites to be so cunning." Ye Kong waved his small sword Dharma artifact and opened the termites.
The termites were discovered. They fiercely ground their white jaws and fiercely pounced on him again.
