The protagonist is obviously strong but very cautious

Chapter 2841 Immortal Elixir
Zheng Tuo intended to target the Queen Ant, and the Queen Ant obviously discovered this as well.

Immediately afterward, the queen ant took action, using absolutely forceful methods to refine the Black Armor Ant Legion into her own service.

Now that he had the protection of the Black Ant Legion, Zheng Tuo abandoned his plan to directly target the ant queen.

With the queen ant, the black armored ant army's combat power is likely to increase several times, making it difficult for them to be defeated.

"Queen Ant, this thing is indeed full of vitality, but that doesn't prove it comes from a peerless elixir. After all, peerless elixir only exists in legends. I've never seen any peerless elixir. Don't try to fool me with some spiritual liquid."

Zheng Tuo indeed could not confirm that the elixir in the thumb-sized vial truly came from a peerless elixir.

The appearance and effects of peerless elixirs are not all the same, and he has no illustrations, so how can he distinguish between the real and the fake?

"Little one, I can swear here that the spiritual liquid I give you is absolutely from a peerless immortal medicine. Furthermore, even if we take a step back, you should be able to see that the spiritual liquid I give you is an extraordinary substance. It can not only help you heal your injuries quickly, but also help you restore your own strength at the fastest speed. Believe me, with the blessing of such spiritual liquid, your combat power will definitely increase several times."

Zheng Tuo believed that the ant queen's description of the elixir in the bottle was merely a ploy to gain his help.

"Queen Ant, I'm very curious. You are clearly the ruler of the giant ant clan, and the entire giant ant clan is your descendant. Why did you leave the giant ant clan in such a sneaky manner? Tell me what happened, and I will consider whether or not to help you."

Zheng Tuo brought the topic to the surface, explaining that he didn't want to waste time here because the area was very close to the territory of the giant ant tribe.

If the Black Ant Legion can pursue us now, there's no guarantee that other Giant Ant Legions won't follow.

The queen ant seemed hesitant, unsure whether she could trust the human boy before her.

But right now she really needs someone to help her.

"It's a long story. I am indeed the queen of the giant ant clan, but I am just a puppet being controlled. The real rulers of the giant ant clan are two old guys, one called Ant General and the other Ant Commander. They rule the entire giant ant clan. I didn't want to be exploited by them like a puppet, so I simply used your puppet body to escape."

The queen ant told Zheng Tuo these words.

Hearing this, Zheng Tuo pondered for a moment, trying to determine whether what the other party said was true or false.

Logically, the queen ant has no reason to lie to herself, especially since she has made an oath.

Oaths still have a strong binding force on the creatures of the great world.

If the queen ant wasn't lying, I probably can't help her.

If the queen ant leaves the giant ant colony, it will be a devastating blow to the entire colony.

Looking back, the giant ant race will likely sweep across the entire giant world in search of the queen, and at that time, I will surely suffer a terrible fate.

Thinking of this, he decided to refuse to help the queen ant.

Seemingly sensing Zheng Tuo's thoughts, the Queen Ant immediately spoke up: "Little guy, I have a way to leave the giant world, but unfortunately, I have been the queen ant for many years and do not know the way out of the giant world. You only need to lead the way for me, and I will give you several portions of that peerless elixir of immortal medicine."

"You can leave the world of giants!"

Zheng Tuo did not believe it.

The King of the Giants is a powerful being at the eighth level of the Wallbreaker realm. The great world he created is so stable that it has remained intact for countless millennia.

As a creature in the world of giants, even if the queen ant breaks through to become a wallbreaker, it is unlikely that she can leave the world of giants.

"Tell me what means you have to leave the world of giants. If it works, I don't mind escorting you all the way out of the world of giants and giving you a hand."

“Little one, I knew you would help me.” The queen ant smiled and continued, “My method is very simple: I was not born in the world of giants. Since I was not born in this world, I can leave this world at will.”

"What?!" Zheng Tuo was dumbfounded. "You're saying you weren't born from this world?!"

“That’s right. I was not born in this world. I was captured by them when I was a child and raised to be the queen ant.”

"Can queen ants be raised?"

"Of course, I am an ant, but I am different from the ants of this world. However, as ants, the ancestor of the giant ant clan is in a deep sleep and needs a queen ant to help stabilize the development of the giant ant clan. So they captured me and made me the queen ant of the giant ant clan."

The queen ant spoke with a pitiful tone.

She was originally a genius among the ant race living in the primordial fairy realm, capable of leading the ant race to great heights. Unexpectedly, she was captured and taken to the giant world, becoming the queen of the giant ant race.

Zheng Tuo could not determine whether the queen ant's words were true or false, but based on a comprehensive analysis...

If the queen ant can successfully leave the world of giants, he wouldn't mind helping her out.

Because the spiritual liquid in that thumb-sized bottle was truly an unparalleled celestial treasure. With its help, the queen ant could take it out and drink it when she was exhausted in battle, and her strength would be instantly replenished, and her condition would instantly return to its peak.

He naturally wanted to acquire something so useful in battle.

"Queen Ant, as you said, I can escort you away from the world of giants."

“Little one, I knew you were loyal and righteous.” The queen ant immediately smiled.

Despite being quite old, she is as innocent and lively as a young girl.

Come on.

The queen ant was very young when she was captured and brought here, and was subsequently imprisoned and cut off from contact with the outside world.

Her personality is not much different from her former self, except that she has a bit more darkness in her.

“Helping you leave is no problem, so how much of this elixir can you give me as payment?” Zheng Tuo shook the thumb-sized bottle in his hand.

How many do you want?

The queen ant was in a good mood and her tone became very arrogant.

"How much of this elixir do you have?!"

“Little guy, as you can see, I am currently in a divine soul form, and my physical body is still in the giant ant clan. Therefore, I only have three bottles of immortal liquid with me. I will give them all to you. See if that is enough.”

"Only three bottles!"

Zheng Tuo was somewhat disappointed by this.

He would be more willing to accept that there were hundreds or thousands of bottles of this spiritual liquid, but he was somewhat unwilling to accept that there were only three.

"Little guy, if you can rescue my physical body, I'll give you as many bottles as you want, how about it?"

The queen ant naturally wanted to reclaim her physical body, which was extremely important to a cultivator.

"You mean I'll go to the giant ant tribe and, in front of the entire giant ant tribe, snatch your physical body back?"

"Um...this seems a bit difficult!"

The queen ant thought for a moment. She knew how strong the giant ant clan was. She was afraid that even if a wall-breaker tried to break through, the giant ant clan could handle it.

That was, after all, the lair of the giant ant race, and they had many ways to deal with outsiders.

Although this little guy is very strong, he's only very strong.

Let alone facing the entire giant ant colony, even facing the golden-armored ants would be very difficult, not to mention that there are many golden-armored ants in the giant ant colony, and above them are two invincible ant generals and ant commanders.

"Queen Ant, don't worry about your physical body for now. Being able to leave the world of giants alive is already the greatest fortune for you. As for your physical body, we'll talk about it in the future."

Having said this, Zheng Tuo immediately left the place with the Queen Ant. He followed the same path he had taken with Wuzhiqi and left the Giant World.

On the road.

He tried to talk to the queen ant, but found that she was still wary of him. At the same time, she was incredibly curious about everything in the outside world.

Chattering incessantly, constantly asking about the outside world, full of curiosity about everything around them.

The fact that the queen ant was in such a complicated state made Zheng Tu feel that she might have some kind of mental problem.

But in any case, since we've promised to take them away from the world of giants, we should hurry on our way and get them out as soon as possible.

As they continued their journey, Zheng Tuo saw adventurers appearing in the giant world.

The gates to the world of giants are open to everyone, and it is not strange for anyone to enter the world of giants.

Even among them were powerful figures whom Zheng Tuo knew. They seemed to have known about the existence of the Giant World for a long time, and each of them appeared to be heading in a certain direction at high speed.

Faced with this situation, Zheng Tuo ignored the adventurers and continued onward with the chattering queen ant.

the other side.

Among the giant ant tribe, the ant general and the ant commander quickly realized that something was wrong.

They quickly located the queen ant and, after examining her, discovered that she had detached from her physical body and left the area in the form of a spirit.

"What!" The ant general frowned. "The queen ant's physical body and soul must coexist in order to conceive the offspring of our giant ant clan. Now that the queen ant's soul has left, we must kill her as soon as possible, or something terrible may happen."

"It happened!"

Ant Commander immediately sensed something.

"what's up?"

"I sensed that the Black Armored Ant Legion had lost contact with me, which must have been severed by someone, and that person is very likely the Queen Ant."

"Chase!"

The ant general took the initiative to attack, leaving the ant commander to guard the base camp, while he personally led the golden-armored ants to attack and chase after Zheng Tuo and the ant queen.

Zheng Tuo and the queen ant continued to move forward quickly, but the queen ant maintained an almost perverse curiosity about the various things and creatures around her.

This caused their speed to drop sharply.

"Queen Ant, we should leave the Giant World as soon as possible. As you said, the Giant Ants are a superior race in the Giant World. If they discover that you are missing, they will definitely come after you immediately. If we are stopped, it will be dangerous."

Based on his years of experience, Zheng Tuo had a premonition that something bad might happen at any time.

"Don't worry, those two old guys are incredibly stupid. They definitely won't easily discover the tricks I've set up. You can relax and play around with me here for a while. It won't be long before we leave."

The queen ant was very confident in her scheme, but she forgot that she had been trapped for a very, very long time.

Over the course of these long years, the queen ant has been thoroughly studied by the enemy, and all her little thoughts have been captured.

In truth, she was lucky to have met Zheng Tuo this time; her little tricks weren't caught.

"Queen Ant, have you ever escaped before?" Zheng Tuo asked earnestly.

"Of course I tried to escape. When I was first caught, I tried to escape several times, but I was always caught and brought back."

The queen ant was very dissatisfied with her previous escape attempts, which she now realized were full of flaws and far less successful than this one.

"It happened!"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Tuo knew things were going badly.

Since the queen ant has escaped so many times, the two elder ant generals and the ant commander of the giant ant clan must have left various tracking methods on her to ensure that she can be caught and brought back after escaping.

Although the queen ant has escaped in her spirit form, there's no guarantee that something on her body might still be locked onto.

He told the queen ant about it, and after thinking about it, she suddenly realized what was going on.

"What should we do? Let's go quickly!" The queen ant finally became anxious.

Seeing this, Zheng Tuo took out the flying boat, and the two sat on it. They no longer had the mood to admire the flowers, but focused on traveling.

period.

Zheng Tuo summoned the Queen Ant, "To ensure that your soul has not been tracked, I need to conduct a comprehensive examination of your soul."

"No problem! How do you want to check? The sooner the better." The queen ant seemed even more nervous than Zheng Tuo.

She no longer wants to return to the giant ant tribe.

Although the giant ant tribe does not need to do anything, only to offer their essence and blood at the appointed time, being trapped in the small room is like being in a cage.

No matter how luxuriously the cage is decorated, she doesn't want to go back.

"let's start!"

Zheng Tuo extended his palm, channeling his righteous energy to envelop the ant queen.

Zheng Tuo secretly added a little bit of light power to the righteous energy, using both the righteous energy and the light power to judge whether the queen ant was worth his wholehearted help.

"My God, little guy, what method did you use? I feel so good!"

The queen ant's face was full of enjoyment, and she even lay down directly in front of Zheng Tuo, greedily enjoying the comfortable feeling at this moment.

Seeing this, Zheng Tuo could confirm that the queen ant was harmless to him.

Righteous Qi and the power of light possess extreme destructive power against evil things, and can also detect whether the other party has evil fluctuations such as murderous intent or malice.

The queen ant is now enjoying more, and there is clearly no malice intended.

I never expected that the queen ant, after being trapped for so long, would not develop any inner demons.

According to the queen ant, she was trapped in her beautiful but cramped dwelling for endless years.

Living in such an environment, it's no wonder that she was targeted by the giant ant clan and captured to become their queen.

If she didn't possess such a pure heart, the giant ant colony probably wouldn't have made her the queen.

The queen ant represents the future potential of the entire giant ant colony, because all ants awaken their bloodline by consuming the queen's essence and blood after birth.

The stronger the queen ant's own talent, the greater the chance that the offspring of the giant ant clan will awaken their own bloodline after consuming her essence and blood.

As Zheng Tuo pondered this, he continued to use his righteous energy and the power of light to search for any tracking marks on the queen ant's body.

really.

The power of light and the aura of righteousness did not disappoint him; they quickly detected the mark left on the queen ant.
