Chapter 281: Chapter 274: Exterminate the King Insect_1

Originally, there were only a little over a hundred zombie ants, but after constant assimilation, the number of the zombie ant troops had already exceeded three thousand.

How long had they been fighting?

It was believed that as the battle dragged on, the numbers of the zombie ant troops would increase geometrically.

Using them to deal with the numerous fire ant army was simply tailor-made. The zombie ants had above average combat strength but moved slowly. However, they possessed strong self-healing abilities and their defense was quite remarkable. Additionally, any enemy wounded by them would soon be assimilated.

Under these circumstances, the more fire ants there were, the more the zombie ants could expand their army like a snowball rolling downhill.

These zombie ants were already so formidable without any cultivation.

If they were nurtured with Ancient Banyan Tree Blood, it was hard to imagine.

By then, they would definitely become even stronger.

Qin Niu decided to seize this opportunity to refine their combat strength and enrich their combat experience.

Apart from the outstanding performance of the zombie ants, the other members of the Termite Army were also quite exceptional.

Now that Qin Niu no longer had to deal with the Corpse Bees, the Puppet Ants and Ghost Ants had also joined the battle.

They clung to Qin Niu’s King Pig Leather Armor, assisting the termites on the front line in their fight against the fire ants.

The Puppet Ants controlled the fire ants to turn around and kill their own kind.

The Ghost Ants launched mental attacks on the fire ants, causing them to fall to the ground in pain, where they were easily bitten to death by the Termite Army.

With the addition of the Ghost Ants and Puppet Ants, the casualties of the Termite Army rapidly decreased.

The forefront of the fire ant army had turned into a slaughterhouse.

Fire ants rushed forward one after another as if they were on a suicide mission.

No matter how astonishing the number of the fire ant army was, it couldn’t withstand such losses.

You should know that Qin Niu had brought out almost twenty-six thousand termites this time. Excluding the four thousand or so Ghost Ants and Puppet Ants that did not engage directly with the enemy, the rest were almost all thrown into the fight.

This meant that nearly twenty-two thousand termites were on the front lines, slaughtering fire ants.

The termites were extremely fierce in battle, and the speed at which they harvested fire ants was shockingly fast. A formidable termite could bite a fire ant to death with one bite.

Their bites were quick and fierce, and before one could even see clearly, the heads of fire ants were separated from their bodies.

The ground was already piled with the corpses of fire ants.

Some of them were not dead immediately and were still struggling in pain.

Some of Qin Niu’s termites were injured as well.

The total casualties should not exceed a thousand.

Compared to the number of fire ants killed, this was negligible.

The insect war was losing suspense, and his gaze shifted to the center of the battle where Deputy City Lord Bai and Elder Jiu Yin, among others, were engaged.

The situation of Deputy City Lord Bai seemed a bit grim.

A massive Taiyin Yaoyao was lying on him, frantically devouring the aura armor on his body.

Qin Niu was very clear that the aura armor on Deputy City Lord Bai’s body was made from his internal energy.

Now that it was being continuously devoured by the Taiyin Yaoyao, it also meant that his internal energy was being rapidly drained.

The three experts besieging the Deputy City Lord were all in the Spirit Qi Realm.

This was easy to discern.

Spirit Qi Realm masters not only emitted an extremely awe-inspiring aura, like a towering mountain, but they also displayed manifesting spirit Qi during offense or defense.

This was something Innate Realm masters couldn’t do.

Furthermore, Spirit Qi Realm masters could generate Sword Qi or Qi Armor when using weapons or armor.

This ability was also not possessed by Innate Realm masters.

However, if one’s cultivation wasn’t enough, good equipment could make up for it.

Qin Niu’s Ink Blade and King Pig Leather Armor could achieve similar effects. His Ink Blade was even stronger than the ordinary divine weapons urged by a Spirit Qi Realm master.

At this moment, the Taiyin Yaoyao that was lying on Deputy City Lord Bai was slashed into several pieces by his sword.

But for it, this didn’t cause any substantive damage.

It instantly rushed towards Deputy City Lord Bai again, reattaching itself to his body and continuing to devour his internal energy.

Bai Xuezhu, let’s see how much longer you can hold out! Today, this will be your grave!”

Elder Jiu Yin cackled evilly, intensifying his attacks even further.

Vice City Lord Bai really is formidable, fighting alone against three Spirit Qi

Realm powerhouses and not falling behind.

I his man is an absolute fierce general.

“You think using just this Taiyin Yaoyao will wear me down to death? Hmph, you are too naive. This is Black Tiger Gang’s territory, and other masters will soon arrive upon hearing the news. Then we’ll see who dies,”

Vice City Lord Bai may say so, but there is a bit of a bluff in his manner.

If other masters from the Black Tiger Gang could come, they should have arrived by now.

The fact that they still haven’t arrived likely means they are being held up by the enemy at the front line.

The Nine Insect Gang are not fools either; knowing that a heavyweight like

Elder Jiu Yin has led an attack into the heartland of the Black Tiger Gang, they would naturally not allow other Black Tiger Gang masters the chance to ’ encircle Elder Jiu Yin.

“To think a mere Taiyin Yaoyao could fix me, watch me capture it.”

Qin Niu had long been eyeing that Taiyin Yaoyao king insect with envy.

This is good stuff.

He has considerable experience in capturing such insects.

“Lord Bai, reward me with that Taiyin Yaoyao!”

Qin Niu called out.

Upon hearing this, Vice City Lord Bai’s heart stirred.

He repelled the three strong enemies surrounding him with one sword stroke, then used the flat of his blade to smack the Taiyin Yaoyao, instantly knocking it flying towards where Qin Niu was.

“Qin Niu, be careful, this is a king insect raised by old Jiu Yin himself; it’s more formidable than an ordinary Taiyin Yaoyao,”

Vice City Lord Bai did not forget to remind Qin Niu.

Even while fighting against three strong enemies, he took the chance to assess

Qin Niu’s combat abilities.

Neither Elder Jiu Yin’s Corpse Bees nor the Fire Ants could take down Qin Niu.

In fact, Qin Niu even managed to kill dozens of the Corpse Bees in return.

Such formidable combat prowess indeed surprised Vice City Lord Bai.

If Qin Niu could really help him take down this extremely troublesome Taiyin Yaoyao king insect, it would be like cutting off one of Elder Jiu Yin’s arms. The situation on the battlefield would immediately reverse.

To this, Vice City Lord Bai was full of anticipation.

At the same time, he had his concerns.

He feared that Qin Niu would not be able to deal with that insect and might instead be killed by the Taiyin Yaoyao king.

Qin Niu had already ordered the Termite Army and the Red-eyed Golden Toad to be ready for battle.

Watching the Taiyin Yaoyao being knocked over,

Without a word, Qin Niu slashed out with his blade.

Unexpectedly, the king insect possessed remarkable evasive abilities.

It actually dodged the attack.

But no matter, the Red-eyed Golden Toad was very effective, rolling its tongue and snatching it up.

Qin Niu seized the opportunity and slashed again.

This time, he successfully split its body in two.

“You little beast, you’re courting death.”

Seeing the Taiyin Yaoyao king insect getting bitten by a very large Golden Toad and then immediately split in two by Qin Niu, Elder Jiu Yin suddenly felt a bad premonition.

Without hesitation, he charged at Qin Niu, desperate to free the king insect from its predicament.

“Jiu Yin, your opponent is me, Lord Bai. It’s not good to bully the weak,” Vice City Lord Bai firmly stood between Elder Jiu Yin and the other two guards, his treasured sword turning into a curtain of Sword Qi that tightly sealed the three of them off.

In doing so, if Elder Jiu Yin insisted on forcing through, the cost would undoubtedly be grievous.

At the very least, he would be gravely injured.

Qin Niu had already ordered Fourth to lead all the Puppet Ants to attack the fallen half of the Taiyin Yaoyao king insect s body while all the Ghost Ants concentrated their firepower on the other half of its body.

“Master, it’s too strong, act quickly!”

Fourth appeared extremely strained.

Qm Niu was prepared and immediately used the Metal Bug Canister to cover

half of the body, then placed it inside the canister.

After sealing it, he was still somewhat worried it might escape.

He watched closely..
