Douluo: Did you move Danta here?

Chapter 491: Thousand-pound Ant

Three hours later, Tang San slowly opened his pale purple eyes, felt the immense soul power within his body, and immediately revealed a satisfied smile.

As he expected, the Thunderous Hell Vine not only granted him the True Body Soul Skill, but also gave the Blue Silver Grass the ability to accumulate lightning for cultivation. From now on, he no longer had to watch helplessly as his subordinates' strength improved by leaps and bounds.

After examining the corpse of the Thunderous Hell Vine, Tang San found that no soul bone had been produced. He did not feel regretful, as the purpose of this trip had been successfully completed.

Looking at the enormous corpse of the Rock Demon Rhino beside him, Tang San felt regretful because its spirit ring had already dissipated into the world. After all, it was a spirit ring that was nearly 9 years old, and judging from the spirit skill it had just released, it seemed to have a certain compatibility with the Clear Sky Hammer.

However, he didn't have a good way to deal with the fact that the spirit ring would dissipate if it wasn't absorbed within an hour of the spirit beast's death. After all, it was impossible to attach spirit rings to two different martial souls at the same time, and a spirit ring with a lifespan of 9 years was still a bit of a stretch for him at the moment. This fact helped him quickly calm down his anxious feelings.

After cutting up part of the Rock Demon Rhino's corpse and putting it into the Soul Guidance Device, Tang San packed up and headed towards the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest. His purpose was only to attach the seventh Soul Ring to the Blue Silver Grass. Now that he had achieved his goal, there was no reason for him to stay any longer.

As for the Clear Sky Hammer's spirit ring, he still plans to follow the master's advice and wait until the Blue Silver Grass is cultivated to the Title Douluo level before adding it. He would only try it if he encountered a rare spirit ring that was compatible with the Clear Sky Hammer during this period.

Perhaps because he had something on his mind, on his way back to Star Dou Town, he actually encountered a soul beast that was quite compatible with the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul.

It's not quite accurate to say it's just one, because the ant-like soul beasts in front of us appeared in groups of three. The three ants were about three meters long, and their bodies were covered with a layer of dark gold carapace. They had six thick and powerful legs, and six eyes on their heads that emitted a ghostly green light. According to the records in the book, this kind of soul beast is called the Thousand-Pound Ant, which is an extremely powerful soul beast and is particularly suitable as a soul ring for the Clear Sky Hammer.

While inside the Clear Sky Sect, he also looked up the soul rings that were compatible with the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul, and the name of the Thousand Pound Ant was prominently listed at the top.

They are currently hunting a cave spider of similar cultivation level to themselves, hoping to use it as food for the three brothers.

"When luck comes, you can't stop it. Just now it was Thunderous Hell Vine and Rock Demon Rhino, and now we've run into Thousand-Pound Ant and Cave Demon Spider."

Three ants surrounded and trapped the cave spider in the center. Whenever it tried to burrow underground to escape, one of the ants would charge at it, leaving heavy wounds on its body.

The cave spider was now trapped with nowhere to go, so it could only keep spitting out spider silk at the three brothers to warn them not to come near it.

But how could the three giant ants, clearly starving, let such a delicious and nutritious meal pass them by? Having lost patience, they began to charge at the cave spider, which was clearly on the verge of collapse.

Having taken in everything, Tang San quickly devised a battle plan. It is well known that Sichuan is mountainous, and in the summer, the rampant mosquitoes can be deadly. The Tang Clan, skilled in poison making, has its headquarters deep in Sichuan and has naturally researched poisons specifically for mosquitoes and ants for self-defense.

Tang San, upon arriving in Douluo Continent, had thoroughly mastered all the poison formulas and had even experimented with creating various poisons, including insecticides. Even though the insect-type spirit beasts on Douluo Continent were far more powerful than the poisonous insects of his previous life, their physical characteristics and habits were largely the same, so the insecticides would still be somewhat effective.

Tang San keenly sensed that the spider silk spit out by the Cave Demon Spider would be reabsorbed into its body after the silk threads were exhausted, which gave him a good opportunity to poison it.

Using the hidden weapon technique of capturing dragons and controlling cranes, the insect-killing liquid was successfully launched onto the spider silk spat out by the cave spider. The potent toxin also quietly entered the cave spider's body as the silk was retracted.

As soon as the toxin entered its body, the cave spider stiffened and its entire body trembled.

The three Thousand-Pound Ants, unaware of what had happened, didn't care about anything else. All they knew was that their enemy had revealed the biggest weakness they had shown since the start of the battle. One of the Thousand-Pound Ants quickly covered its horn-like shell with a layer of golden light, and then its six severed legs swiftly exerted force, slamming into the Cave Spider.

With a "plop," the cave spider, entangled in insecticide, was powerless to resist and could only watch helplessly as the sharp tentacles of the insecticide pierced its abdomen.

Before long, a jet-black spirit ring slowly rose from the body of the Cave Spider. The three Thousand-Pound Ants didn't care about spirit rings at all. Hungry, they rushed forward and quickly began to devour the Cave Spider's corpse.

Tang San, who was hiding his presence on the treetop, looked at the three brothers who were enjoying their meal with relish and immediately revealed a smug smile. Once they had eaten the insecticide along with the food, it would be his chance to make his move.

Tang San didn't have to wait long for this moment. The three Thousand-Pound Ants were already huge, and they quickly devoured the Cave Demon Spider, which was almost the same size. The leader Thousand-Pound Ant had just finished eating and turned around and took two steps when it felt a stiffness in its body. Its six eyes, which were emitting a ghostly green light, also showed a look of horror.

The same thing soon happened to the other two brothers. The three Thousand-Pound Ants stood still as if frozen in place. Normally, if they were attacked by force, these three Thousand-Pound Ants would not only be incredibly strong, but their carapaces would also provide incredible defense. Tang San would never be able to kill the three brothers now.

But now, with the internal support of the insecticide, everything has become simpler. Tang San can calmly accumulate the power of the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique from a distance, and then deliver a fatal blow to the three brothers when it reaches its peak.

In no time, Tang San had already stacked the Chaotic Cloak to nearly sixty blows, his target being the leading Thousand-Pound Ant at the very front.

With a deafening roar, the leader of the Thousand-Pound Ants, who was completely defenseless, had its carapace shattered, and a dark soul ring gradually rose from its corpse.

Instead of directly absorbing the spirit ring, Tang San turned around and went to the other two Thousand-Pound Ants. He used sharp hidden weapons to sever all the legs of the other two Thousand-Pound Ants. At the same time, he kept hammering the single horn on the heads of the two brothers with the Clear Sky Hammer until the single horn on which the Thousand-Pound Ants depended for survival was also broken. Under the hateful and venomous gazes of the two Thousand-Pound Ants, Tang San slowly came to the corpse of the Thousand-Pound Ant leader and began to sit cross-legged to adjust his state.

Since they had run into each other, Tang San naturally planned to absorb the soul rings of the three brothers together, since the Thousand-Pound Ant Soul Ring was the most suitable soul ring according to the records in the Clear Sky Sect's internal books.
