At the foot of Mount Heng, Yi Tian was discussing something with the Scarlet Flame Colt. The Scarlet Flame Colt shook its head like a rattle-drum in disagreement. In the end, it even tried to sneak back into the beast sack in front of its master. Fortunately, Yi Tian was prepared and restrained it with his Divine Telekinesis.
Originally, he wanted to use the Fire Ant's nature of feasting on Yang energy to lure the Fire Ant out of its nest. However, the only thing he could immediately use was the Scarlet Flame Stallion, a fire-attribute spirit beast.
Ever since it reached Level Six and underwent Form Transformation, the flame aura on its body was ten times stronger than before. It would be a waste if he didn't make good use of such an advantage.
However, when the Scarlet Flame Colt heard that he was going to use it as bait to lure thousands of Fire Ants out of their nest, its expression changed. It was so scared that it couldn't speak.
Moreover, it kept barking at him to express its protest. In the end, Yi Tian was afraid that it would alert the Fire Ants hiding underground if it continued to make a ruckus. He could only take a step back and forcefully extract three drops of blood from the Scarlet Flame Colt. With these things, he could pass off the fake as the real thing.
After discussing with He Weiming, the latter hurriedly flew to the surrounding mountains to look for large Class Five spirit beasts.
Yi Tian's original plan was to use the Scarlet Flame Colt as bait. Now that he had obtained three drops of blood, he could find a substitute. After all, he didn't think too much about it. Even if he failed to use a substitute, it wouldn't cause too much damage.
After two hours, He Weiming's figure appeared in the sky again. He had two wild boar-like monsters in his hands. They seemed to be at the middle of Class Five.
After they landed on the cloud, Yi Tian immediately restrained the two monsters. Then, he poured two drops of the Scarlet Flame Colt's blood into their bodies.
After ten breaths, the two monsters turned completely red. An intense fire spiritual energy erupted from their seven orifices. It was obvious that they couldn't withstand the power of the Form Transformation Monster's bloodline.
Fortunately, they were only used as bait. By the time they had completely fused with their blood, they instantly became incomparably violent. Their bodies were filled with an endless amount of fire source energy. If not for Yi Tian restraining them, they would have already gone berserk.
Seeing this, He Weiming revealed a joyful expression and said, "That's not bad, but how will Fellow Daoist cut off his path of return?"
Yi Tian took out a small jade bottle from his storage bag and handed it to He Weiming, saying, "This is the water I obtained from the Northern Plains Snow Palace's Jadewave Pool. Its nature is incomparably cold. You only need to drip a little near the ant nest to turn it into an ice cave. At that time, the worker ants that fly out of the nest will naturally be disturbed by their nature and won't dare to fly back into the nest."
He Weiming said, "Then Fellow Daoist, you still have to be careful when dealing with the Ant Queen and the army of Ant Soldiers in this Ant Nest."
A trace of helplessness appeared on Yi Tian's face as he said, "That can't be helped. However, it's still easier than dealing with thousands of worker ants. As for Fellow Daoist He, I'll have to trouble you to wait outside for an opportunity to clear out the fire ants and open up a path of retreat for me."
"Brother Yi, don't worry about this. I'm more than enough to deal with these level 5 monsters. Furthermore, I don't really need to attack at close range. I just need to continuously exhaust their vitality from afar," He Weiming replied.
After the two finished discussing, they immediately acted. Yi Tian directly subdued the two irritable and restless pig demons and threw them to an open space one mile away from the ant nest. Then, he stretched out his hand to cut the pig demons' necks and four main arteries. Instantly, the blood that contained true fire slowly flowed out from the wounds.
Immediately after, he took out a formation plate and placed it at the two pig demons' location. Suddenly, a breeze appeared in the calm valley and blew the pungent smell of blood towards the ant nest.
After constantly activating the formation plate, the wind blew the fire spiritual power of the two pig demons directly into the ant nest. For a moment, the ground around the ant nest began to tremble slightly.
He Weiming, who was in the air, saw this and smiled, "Brother Yi's formation skills are really good. This way, this group of fire ants should have taken the bait."
"Let's see how they appear next." Yi Tian's expression wasn't relaxed. Instead, he said solemnly, "I'm afraid that the soldier ants and queen ants left behind won't be easy to deal with."
As he was talking, at the dozens of small holes in the ant nest below, pairs of fire ants lined up neatly and quickly crawled towards the pig demons' location.
If one didn't look, one wouldn't know that there were at least tens of thousands of fire ants coming out of the holes below. Although most of them were level 4 or 5, ants could kill an elephant if there were enough of them. Even a Yuanying cultivator would have to retreat if he encountered them.
The Fire Ant Army below had divided into several groups, which were nearly a thousand feet long. When they were almost gone, Yi Tian once again activated the Formation Control Artifact in his hand, blowing the smell of blood even more fiercely.
The army of fire ants moved even faster. Seeing this, Yi Tian didn't waste any time and directly took out the Taiyuan Sword. He jumped down from the cloud and flew above the fire ant nest.
Then, he reached out and controlled the spirit sword to hack at the surroundings of the ant nest. After a few green lights, he dug out a one-foot radius of soil, which was more than half of the fire ants' nest.
At the same time, he used the Clear Spirit Dharma Eye to look at the golden light contained in the soil. It was the alchemy secreted by the fire ants, but it was mixed with the soil and needed to be sifted and purified before it could be used.
Before he had time to be happy, he heard a buzzing sound in his ears. He glanced over and saw hundreds of half-inch soldier ants flying out of the ant nest.
These soldier ants even had wings. They quickly divided into two paths in the air, wanting to surround Yi Tian in the middle.
Even if the species that lived in groups increased in level, they still had a strict hierarchy. These peak level-five fire ants looked fierce, but their intelligence wasn't high. Yi Tian's gaze swept across the ant nest and saw a flash of fire. He hurriedly used his Clear Spirit Dharma Eyes to take a closer look. Only then did he realize that within the fire was a red ant queen about two inches long. It had two pairs of wings on its back, and it was hovering in mid-air like a commander commanding an army of ten thousand soldiers.
His feet paused, and the green light around him flashed and disappeared. After a breath, he appeared in mid-air. Then, he reached out and formed a seal. He pointed at the Taiyuan Sword. Suddenly, a green thread separated from the Taiyuan Sword and attacked the soldier ants below.
Fortunately, Yi Tian's Divine Sense had been strengthened. He could easily divide the sword thread into thousands of thin lines and deal with it. The green thread fell from the sky like raindrops and hit the soldier ants directly. Suddenly, there was a burst of "pu pu pu" sounds in the air. After the sound, the defeated soldier ants fell down.
However, before Yi Tian could rejoice for long, he suddenly frowned as a feeling of unease welled up in his heart. Without giving it much thought, he instinctively teleported away from his original position.
