With a flash of spirit light, the severed arm was reattached to Lu Xiaotian's arm. What seemed to be three Mahayana Realm powerhouses had now become two.
As for the extremely ferocious Space Devouring Ghost Ants, they were still covering the sky. Lu Xiaotian had only killed the Ghost Ant King in the midst of the ant swarm. During the battle, the ant swarm had also suffered a certain amount of damage. However, compared to the huge ant swarm, this loss was far from enough to shake their foundation.
At this moment, although Lu Xiaotian had used the Beheading Technique to directly kill the Ghost Ant King, the ant swarm, which was known for its ferocity, had been intimidated to a certain extent. However, it was far from enough to suppress their bloodthirsty nature. Even when facing two Mahayana Realm powerhouses, Lu Xiaotian and the Lotus Clone, the ant swarm, which had suffered a loss, continuously bared their fangs at Lu Xiaotian as if they would pounce at any moment.
Lu Xiaotian's figure flashed and disappeared into the ant swarm. Spirit light flashed on his body and a huge spirit shield appeared. As soon as the Ghost Ants pounced on him, they were repelled and turned into black smoke that dissipated into the void. At this moment, the Ghost Ants seemed to have been provoked and crazily rushed toward Lu Xiaotian.
Lu Xiaotian went straight toward the center of the ant swarm, but a part of the ant swarm in the distance had begun to retreat. Lu Xiaotian frowned and said, "Junior Sister Su, are you going to avoid me now?"
The Ghost Ant King was dead. Because Su Qing and Lu Qian had done something, once the ant nest was lost, it would not be able to revive in a short period of time. For the entire ant swarm, the result would be disintegration. Seeing that Lu Xiaotian was constantly approaching the ant nest, the ant swarm screeched and pounced toward Lu Xiaotian. They were earth-shattering and filled the space around Lu Xiaotian.
But soon, these Ghost Ants seemed to be restrained and began to stop moving forward. They just surrounded the area around Lu Xiaotian and screamed. They seemed to be impatient, but they didn't seem to be willing. The core of the ant nest, which was surrounded by the ant colony, paused in the void. "I, I have to go back and take care of Senior Brother Luo."
Lu Xiaotian knew that the Ghost Ant King had stopped because it had received Su Qing's order. The Ghost Ant King had already been killed, and before a new Ghost Ant King was born, the nest was the only consciousness left in the ant colony. Usually, the Space Devouring Ghost Ant Colony was led by the Ant King. As for the Ant Nest, it belonged to the Ghost Ant King.
However, Su Qing's situation was obviously more special. She had destroyed the possibility of the ant colony regenerating their nest in a short period of time. Su Qing had paid a considerable price to integrate the ghost body into the Ant Nest, and there were not many people who knew this technique. Unless a Mahayana Realm Ghost Ant King was born in the ant colony, it would be difficult for an ordinary Ghost Ant King to gain the upper hand in the fight for control of the ant colony with Su Qing.
At least until now, even the unprecedentedly powerful ant colony was completely under Su Qing's control.
"I will go with you to see Junior Brother Luo." Lu Xiaotian said.
"I …" Ever since she learned from Luo Qian and Qing Li that Lu Xiaotian was in the Demonic Chaos Realm, Su Qing had gone to the Nether Demon Corpse Burial Ground as soon as she came out of seclusion. However, the opponents Lu Xiaotian had offended were too shocking. Later on, she was even placed under house arrest in the Pearl Buddhist Sect. Not to mention a ghost like Su Qing, even the Ghost Ant King had the help of a large number of ants. If it were not for the fact that several Mahayana Realm cultivators in the Crimson Moon Desert were attacking the Pearl Buddhist Sect, how would it have the guts to seek trouble with the Buddhist Sect?
Previously, Su Qing had traveled millions of miles and was not afraid of the countless dangers along the way, just to see Lu Xiaotian. However, in order to help Lu Xiaotian escape from the Buddhist Sect, Su Qing had no choice but to sacrifice her arm. She used it to distract the Ghost Ant King, and with the help of Luo Qian, she took control of the Ant Nest.
"Let me see you." Lu Xiaotian said.
"No, Brother Lu, I'll take you to see Senior Brother Luo." Su Qing was filled with great fear. Even when she took the Ant Nest by force and schemed against the Ghost Ant King, Su Qing had never been afraid. However, when she heard Lu Xiaotian's words, Su Qing was instinctively afraid. The Ant Nest's huge and bloated body could not help but retreat. She did not want Lu Xiaotian to see her true appearance.
"Let me see." Lu Xiaotian's tone was unquestionable.
At this moment, the ants could sense the Ant Nest's fear and retreated. They screamed fiercely and rushed forward again. However, before they could do anything, they were ordered to retreat by the Ant Nest.
Lu Xiaotian's figure flashed and appeared in front of the Ant Nest. The Ant Nest's body stiffened. Lu Xiaotian's hand had already touched it. In order not to hurt the Ant Nest, Lu Xiaotian removed the protective spiritual barrier on the surface of his body and only reached down with his bare hand.
The Ant Nest trembled violently. The Ghost Ants that pounced out to bite Lu Xiaotian were hurriedly stopped by Su Qing and ordered to retreat. The low-level Ghost Ants on the Ant Nest unwillingly scattered like the tide. Their bloated bodies were exposed, but they were full of holes and trembling non-stop.
Lu Xiaotian reached out and touched the Ant Nest. At this moment, the Ghost Qi was no longer as gloomy as before. When his hand touched the trembling Ant Nest, Lu Xiaotian could feel the fluctuation in Su Qing's heart. Back then, Su Qing had found it hard to accept that she had turned into a ghost body, let alone this bloated Ant Nest that was full of holes and had Ghost Ants roaming about on it.
"Brother Lu, I want to cry, but I have no tears." Su Qing's voice carried a sobbing tone.
"It's been hard on you." Lu Xiaotian sighed in his heart. For a moment, his heart was filled with panic. In his impression, Junior Sister Su was so vain. Now, not only had she become the appearance she hated the most, she had even been deprived of the right to cry.
"The world is so big. There will always be a way to restore you to your original state. If there isn't one in this world, go to the Immortal World. One day, I will find it for you."
Lu Xiaotian's short words were like a heavy hammer that hammered into Su Qing's heart. Su Qing knew that Lu Xiaotian never made promises easily. It was the same for her and Luo Qian. Most of the time, he always got things done.
"Let's go. Take me to Junior Brother Luo." Suppressing the mixed feelings in her heart, the Ant Swarm once again surrounded the Ant Nest.
The Ant Nest that covered the sky and covered the sky left the Buddhist Sect's main sect and spread toward the Dark Ghost Region.
"Go to the Red Moon Desert and stabilize the situation." Lu Xiaotian transmitted a message to the Lotus Avatar.
"Yes, Master!" The Lotus Avatar turned into a sword light and left.
Before leaving, Lu Xiaotian glanced at Xiang Hua, who was being ostracized by the monks, and sighed in his heart. No matter what, this was Xiang Hua's own choice. As his master, Lu Xiaotian could teach him the Dao and solve his doubts. He could also make some decisions for him.
However, no matter how close a person was to him, he still had his own path to walk. The reason why he took Xiang Hua as his disciple and taught him cultivation methods was because of this. The reason why Xiang Hua helped him escape from the Buddhist Sect was because of this. When Xiang Hua entered this world, he was taken in by the Buddhist Sect and sheltered until now. Now, Xiang Hua wanted to help the broken Buddhist Sect regain its foothold in this Immortal Cultivation World and continue its legacy. This was also a cause and effect. A man would always have his own grievances to settle and his own sufferings to bear. Although this disciple did not become a towering tree, he could already go through the storm by himself.
Lu Xiaotian stretched out his hand and pointed at the void. A thought entered Xiang Hua's mind. "This is the remaining cultivation method of the Mahākāśyapa Sutra. After you cultivate it, you can pass it on to the Buddhist Sect."
"Thank you, Master!" Xiang Hua kowtowed again in the direction Lu Xiaotian left.
"It's not entirely because of you. It's just to fulfill the promise I made to Yao Qingying back then." Lu Xiaotian had already disappeared from the sight of the monks and Xiang Hua. He muttered to himself. When he made the promise to Yao Qingying back then, he never thought that the Buddhist Sect would end up like this.
