The protagonist is obviously strong but very cautious

Chapter 2849 Refining the Immortal Blade Qi
The queen ant had an idea that, to her personally, was not crazy; in fact, it was quite realistic.

She looked at the giant ant tribe suffering at this moment and felt their emotions and their fluctuations.

That feeling made her heart tremble.

Despite the unimaginable suffering endured by the giant ant race, at this moment, upon seeing themselves, each of them exuded a warm aura.

The simultaneous presence of decay and warmth within the giant ant race moved the queen ant to tears, so she resolved to save all the giant ants.

Such an idea is downright insane.

In Zheng Tuo's plan, they would leave after rescuing the Queen Ant's physical body, as this was the simplest and easiest way. However, the Queen Ant suddenly had this idea, which directly disrupted Zheng Tuo's plan.

"no!"

Within the Queen Ant's spiritual realm, Zheng Tuo immediately spoke up to stop her actions.

"Queen Ant, you cannot prove that this group of giant ants is friendly to you at this moment only because you are the queen ant. However, they also possess the bloodline of the giant ant ancestor. Once that bloodline is activated, they will no longer consider you the queen ant, but will consider you an enemy and will not hesitate to attack you, trying to kill you here."

Zheng Tuo patiently explained to the ant queen.

But the queen ant remained immersed in her own compassion, trying to continue saving the giant ant race according to her own ideas.

At this critical moment, Zheng Tuo intended to use forceful methods to compel the queen ant to submit.

We absolutely cannot let the queen ant meddle here.

But right now.

"Young friend, since you're here, why not come out and greet me?" The Ant Commander stopped and looked at the Ant Queen.

His gaze seemed to penetrate the queen ant's spiritual platform and see Zheng Tuo within it.

It was discovered!

Zheng Tuo's heart skipped a beat.

He didn't make any move because he had experienced this before, and Ant Commander's current actions might be tantamount to blowing himself up.

He remained unmoved, but the queen ant panicked, directly revealing his presence.

The queen ant can't be blamed either.

Because in the eyes of the queen ant, the ant commander was a ruthless and cruel person.

Ant Commander is different from Ant General. Ant General is short-tempered, ruthless, and straightforward, but Ant Commander is skilled in strategy and tactics.

When she was first captured, Ant Commander tortured her, leaving an indelible shadow in her heart.

Ant Commander's words caused Queen Ant to tremble uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Ant Commander, knowing the Queen Ant as he did, knew that she was indeed being controlled.

"Young friend, come out. If you don't come out, I'll have to take matters into my own hands."

Ant Commander's eyes flashed with light as he looked at Ant Queen.

Suddenly.

The mark on the queen ant's body was touched, and she appeared to be in extreme pain.

Zheng Tuo frowned upon seeing this.

As the queen ant's master, he could feel her pain and the power of the marks on her body.

What a vicious fellow!
Zheng Tuo could clearly feel that the Queen Ant was completely enveloped by that mark, making it difficult for her to breathe. It seemed that the Ant Commander could kill the Queen Ant with just a thought.

No, we can't let the queen ant continue to bear this pressure.

An idea struck him, and he used his communication with the queen ant to build a bridge, directly transferring the queen ant's suffering onto himself.

hum!
In an instant!
Zheng Tuo almost lost control!

The feeling wasn't pain, but an inexplicable itch.

It felt as if countless ants were crawling and biting all over his body, trying to devour his soul bit by bit.

“I don’t know who you are or why you’re doing this. Come out now, or I will make you suffer this torment forever, forever and ever.”

Ant Commander used this as a threat, attempting to force Zheng Tuo to comply.

But at this moment, the queen ant felt no pain or sensation of being bitten.

The torment she used to feel was gone, and she looked so refreshed that she couldn't believe it herself.

But she knew perfectly well that all her pain had been transferred onto her master.

"Owner!"

At this moment, the queen ant called Zheng Tuo "master" from the bottom of her heart.

She had never felt such warmth before, that someone was helping her, someone was helping her bear the pain.

"Why!"

Tears welled in the queen ant's eyes.

Even though I can't feel any pain, why do I feel so miserable and heartbroken?

"Master, you don't need to feel the pain for me. I'm used to the pain I used to feel. Let me take it."

The queen ant's voice was filled with sobs, and she looked extremely distressed, which pleased Zheng Tuo greatly.

His actions had won the queen ant's trust, and he believed that she would follow him wholeheartedly from now on.

"It's okay, this little bit of pain is nothing to me."

Zheng Tuo himself was also a physical cultivator, and his body was constantly being trained.

Under that almost perverse and insane torture, Zheng Tuo had long since become accustomed to the so-called pain.

At this moment, the methods used by Ant Commander are no threat to him at all.

After thinking about this, he finally decided to go out and meet this Ant Commander.

For him, taking the queen ant away meant facing the ant commander, a move he couldn't avoid.

hum!
The queen ant trembled all over, and then Zheng Tuo left the queen ant and landed in front of her.

"Who are you!"

Ant Commander stood with his hands behind his back, his hoarse voice demanding an answer.

My name is Dao Xiaodao (Little Knife).

Zheng Tuo gave an alias, not wanting the other party to know who he really was.

"Knife Little Knife, a name I've never heard of before. You're probably not a very capable person. Why are you targeting my Giant Ant Clan? Why did you steal my Giant Ant Clan's queen? Tell me the truth. Is someone plotting this behind the scenes?"

Ant Commander's suspicions were not without merit.

The ancestor of the giant ant clan obtained a peerless elixir. Although this matter was kept secret, news of it could still leak out.

This little knife might be someone sent by some race in the world of giants, trying to obtain a peerless elixir.

"Your giant ant clan's queen?" Zheng Tu shook his head. "Ant commander, as far as I know, the queen is not a creature of the giant world. She is an ant clan queen that your giant ant clan found from the outside world. It is only right and proper for me to help the queen leave. You have no right to interfere with us."

Ant Commander appeared extremely angry in the face of Zheng Tuo's strong response.

His eyes gleamed as he looked at Zheng Tuo, ready to strike at any moment.

"Little Knife, I see you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin. Very well, today, let me see what tricks you have up your sleeve to dare to speak to me like this in the territory of my Giant Ant Clan."

Ant Commander's body was surging with spiritual pressure, as if he was ready to make a move at any moment, which made Zheng Tuo extremely vigilant!

Simultaneously.

He secretly sent a message to the queen ant.

"Queen Ant, if a fight breaks out later, you leave first and don't worry about me. Go find Li'er and let her take you away. I have my own way of leaving this place, so don't worry about me."

Upon hearing this, the queen ant was not moved at all; instead, she seemed unusually hesitant. She wanted to save the giant ant race, because those creatures were like her own children.

Zheng Tuo sensed that the Queen Ant's condition was not right, and he immediately said, "Queen Ant, it's not the right time for you to think about saving the Giant Ant Clan. When you are strong enough, you will naturally be able to save the Giant Ant Clan. If war breaks out, you should leave quickly."

Although the queen ant was reluctant, she eventually nodded to indicate that she understood.

Now, for her, the priority should indeed be taking care of herself, rather than the giant ant species.

On the scene, Ant Commander looked at Zheng Tuo with a flashing gaze, releasing his spiritual pressure towards Zheng Tuo.

Zheng Tuo also released his own spiritual pressure in response.

The two powerful spiritual pressures collided at this moment, and the surrounding space immediately became distorted.

"Little Knife, today, you cannot leave my Giant Ant Clan." The Ant Commander already had murderous intent.

As for Ant Commander, he had already calculated that this small knife must be related to the fall of Ant General.

and so.

He intends to suppress it, then search its soul to investigate what happened.

Zheng Tuo was on high alert in the face of such a formidable leader!
He didn't want to fight Ant Commander, especially not on Ant Commander's territory, where there were likely many variables involved.

and so.

He gave the queen ant a signal, instructing her to leave first.

brush!
Without hesitation, the queen ant turned and ran.

"stop!"

The Ant Commander immediately took action, communicating with the mark on the Queen Ant's body in an attempt to stop her.

But the Ant Commander was astonished to find that no matter what methods he used, the Queen Ant continued to flee the area as if nothing had happened.

Ant Commander was puzzled as to what had happened, but he still waved his hand dismissively.

Brush brush!
Several flashes of light blocked the queen ant's path.

Upon closer inspection, the figures were all clad in silver-white armor, each exuding formidable strength; they were none other than the Silver-Armored Ant Legion.

The Silver-Armored Ant Legion is very mysterious; even the Queen Ant is unaware of its existence. Now that it has appeared, it has blocked the Queen Ant's path, preventing her from leaving.

The queen ant immediately put up a fight.

She raised her hand and summoned the Black-Armored Ant Legion and the Golden-Armored Ant Legion, which directly confronted the Silver-Armored Ant Legion, and the two sides engaged in a fierce battle on the spot.

"what!"

When the Ant Commander saw that the Black Armor Ant Legion and the Golden Armor Ant Legion were actually controlled by the Ant Queen, he immediately spoke up in displeasure.

He wanted to take action against the two major legions, but Zheng Tuo stopped him.

brush!
The Immortal-Slaying Blade unleashed its light, hurtling towards the location of the Ant Commander.

Sonorous!

Ant Commander blocked the blade with his arm and appeared unharmed, demonstrating his powerful physique.

"Dao Guang, you are a member of the Dao Sect!"

Ant Commander is knowledgeable and experienced. Every time the Mythical Arena opens, he leaves the Giant Ant Clan to go to the outside world to find outsiders and obtain information.

and so.

He still had a certain grasp of information from the outside world, and at this moment he directly concluded that Zheng Tuo came from the Sword Sect.

Zheng Tuo remained silent and continued his forceful attack, heading straight for Ant Commander.

Undeterred, Ant Commander transformed his hands into two battle blades and launched a fierce attack on Zheng Tuo.

Sonorous!

Ant Commander's strength was clearly much greater than that of Ant General. Zheng Tuo's attack this time was so powerful that he was unable to harm him and could only manage a draw.

Good thing!

Zheng Tuo was not discouraged by this; on the contrary, he became excited.

He took advantage of this battle to refine the sword immortal energy within the Immortal Slaying Blade into his own use.

With this in mind, he didn't hesitate to take action, displaying his strongest combat power and fiercely fighting Ant Commander.

The moment Ant Commander made contact, he immediately felt immense pressure.

This Dao Xiaodao has incredibly powerful skills; I actually felt immense pressure when I fought him.

hum!
Without saying a word, Ant Commander immediately activated his strongest form.

His body transformed into hard armor, which looked the same style as the armor worn by the Ant General, but the Ant General's armor was full of ferocious barbs, giving it an evil beauty.

Furthermore, Ant Commander's four limbs transformed into four battle blades, replacing his limbs with these four blades. This bizarre appearance aroused Zheng Tuo's extreme vigilance.

He had searched for the meaning of Ant General, and in Ant General's memory, Ant Commander's strength was much greater than his.

even.

In the Ant General's memory, he had never known the Ant Commander's true combat strength.

After learning about this, Zheng Tuo became extremely cautious in his battle.

Because he clearly understood that his opponent was no ordinary person; both the Ant Commander and the Ant General were the Dao bodies of the Giant Ant Clan's ancestor.

From a certain perspective, the Ant Commander is the ancestor of the giant ant clan.

Zheng Tuo didn't want to fight the Giant Ant Clan Ancestor on his own territory, but now that the die was cast, he had no choice but to act. So he didn't hesitate and launched a fierce attack, displaying his extraordinary combat power and engaging in a fierce battle with the Ant Commander.

The two sides fought fiercely, their battle cries resounding.

Ant Commander's limbs transformed into battle blades, and upon collision, they were actually able to withstand the Immortal-Slaying Blade in Zheng Tuo's hand, which greatly surprised him!

The Immortal-Slaying Blade is clearly a supreme innate treasure as powerful as the Immortal-Slaying Sword, yet it cannot sever the Ant Commander's physical body. Good heavens, just how terrifying is this Ant Commander's physical body?

Saying.

In the memories of the Ant General, there seems to be information about the world of giants.

The world of giants is the world of the king of the giants, who is a self-destructor and a terrifying being who cultivates his physical body.

Therefore, as native creatures of the giant world, the giant ant race should have inherited some of the characteristics of the giant king, namely, extremely strong physical bodies.

Thinking of this, he understood the reason. Without hesitation, he continued his powerful attack and fought against Ant Commander.

In the midst of such a frenzied battle, Zheng Tuo felt the sword immortal energy within the Immortal-Slaying Blade continuously merging with his own. This merging was extremely rapid because Zheng Tuo had already grasped the key to it.

One must demonstrate extraordinary and powerful fighting spirit in order to gain the recognition of the immortal energy within the Immortal-Slaying Blade and thus completely refine it for one's own use.

After learning about this, he did not hesitate and proceeded along this road.

Maintain your peak condition, concentrate on the battle, and keep yourself at your peak at all times.

Sonorous!

Sonorous!

Sonorous!

The flashing blades echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

The duel between the two sides was nothing short of insane, escalating into a fierce life-or-death struggle from the very beginning.

really.

In this battle, Zheng Tuo displayed extraordinary fighting spirit, causing the sword immortal energy within the Immortal Slaying Blade to surge and be refined by him.

In the midst of this frenzied battle, Zheng Tuo finally refined a wisp of the Immortal Blade's sword energy into his own power.
