From waterfowl, it began to transform into the Great Sun Golden Crow.

This place should be inside Changsha Island.

The plump queen ant has a comical appearance. She lays eggs at a visible rate, with eggs produced at intervals of seconds. With each wriggling motion of her body, an egg falls to the ground.

Around the queen ant were countless reddish-black ants.

Gu Heting looked closely and realized that the brown ants were indeed different.

These ants were different from usual. They were entirely black. Each ant was about the size of a child, and their mandibles were longer than those of ordinary ants.

Its long, black jaws were dripping with venom.

"Could these be soldier ants?"

Countless soldier ants climbed straight up the cliff. They surrounded the queen, each with their own task. Some carried ant eggs, while others carried food.

Gu Heting was certain.

This should be the central hub of the ant colony.

This book was first published on 2020s.com, providing you with a reading experience free of errors and disordered chapters.

As the view rises, countless roots connect to the cracks in the soil. Above the queen ant's nest, there is a huge fruit, with the roots of the tree plant firmly planted on the rock wall of the nest.

The enormous fruit was still dripping with honey.

Sweet, sticky water droplets fell.

Several red ants immediately stepped forward. They collected the sugar water, carried it on their heads, and brought it to the queen ant.

"May I pick them?"

No wonder they say it's a symbiotic relationship.

The secretions from the fruit are the food of this queen ant.

Gu Heting's pupils trembled slightly. He stared intently at the fruit before him. He leaped into the air, holding his breath as he activated the ability he had just learned.

"Bright flames rise towards the sun, twin crystal snakes."

"Two dragons transform into fire—appear."

With a flap of his wings, in a proper wing-beating motion, Gu Heting's two wings were entangled by two fire snakes. The two fire snakes surrounded him.

The fiery serpent was like the light of heaven.

The entire anthill was brightly illuminated. Gu Heting's movements were distinctly fast and slow. He raised his wings and slammed them down in a horizontal arc. The flames swirling around his left side rushed straight towards the fruit.

The roots and stems of the thousand-year-old ant honey flower burned amidst the blazing flames.

Snap

The vine roots broke off.

The honeydew flowers and fruits of the thousand-year-old ants fell straight down.

The fruit landed squarely on the queen ant's abdomen. With a mournful cry, the plump queen ant groaned a few times and then died.

"They've gone too far."

How did I manage to kill the queen ant? I think I messed up.

At this point, only half of the queen ant's body remained. The middle part of the queen ant had been smashed open and burst open, and her entire body was still oozing greenish-yellow liquid.

With the death of the queen ant, the pheromones in the entire ant colony began to become disordered.

Worker ants and soldier ants are fighting in groups.

They used their large mandibles to tear apart their own kind.

According to Gu Heting's common sense, if the queen ant of an ant colony dies, they will immediately split into groups and elect a new queen ant. They will then wage war until one side overwhelms the other.

The death of the queen ant may have caused the entire colony to descend into chaos.

His actions, ironically, led to a positive outcome.

The customer didn't care anymore. He had just seen many ants crawling towards his body. Even though he had applied plant juice,

He still couldn't control the ants' infighting.

At that moment, he had only one thought in mind.

"Hurry up and pick that fruit and leave." With that thought, Gu Heting used the Fire Serpent Technique again. Two fire serpents attacked the Thousand-Year Ant Honey Flower Fruit frantically.

With the fifth attack

The thousand-year-old ant honey flower and fruit burst open. Gu Heting pulled out a vine along the edge of the soil.

He assembled the rattan into a simple net. Gu Heting kept turning his body to avoid the ants' attacks.

He picked up the ant flower and fruit fragments from time to time.

Pack the fragments into individual pieces.

After quickly sorting the fragments, Gu Heting dragged them toward the cave entrance. He was exhausted after all that. Swaying, he finally managed to drag the fruit fragments out of the cave.

The riverbank is right in front of the cave entrance.

On the riverbank ahead, a river-swallowing fish was waiting for Gu Heting.

Seeing this, the river-swallowing fish found it rather amusing.

This bird is exceptionally intelligent; it weaves a giant net from its roots and stems. The long net resembles a crab trap. Inside the net are fragments of fruit.

The fragments smelled burnt and musty.

This piqued the curiosity of the River Swallowing Fish.

"call!"

Gu Heting suddenly surfaced, dragging the net along. His voice trembled with exhaustion as he spoke: "I almost died in there. Senior Jingli, let me tell you. There was a very fat ant in there, but it should be dead now."

"what?"

Hearing Gu Heting say that, it seemed this guy had caused quite a bit of trouble. Tunjiangyu looked in the direction it could see and saw the ant colony restless, occasionally surfacing from the ground.

"Did this thing kill the queen ant?"

It was already late. Even a powerful demon at the Core Formation stage needed a short rest. Seeing that the little child had already come out, he didn't ask any more questions and plunged headfirst into the surging waves.

Before leaving, he said one last thing: "Meet me at the riverbank tomorrow at three-quarters of an hour."

Gu Heting closed his eyes slightly. The world was much quieter now, but the trouble he had caused today was not to be underestimated. The fire ants on Changsha Island had gone berserk.

Now is not the time for me to stay here.

He fluttered his little paws and arrived at Shenzhou Island, where he was born.

The phoenix-carried book was opened again.

The gold-embossed words appeared on Gu Heting's retina.

[Food, such as the thousand-year-old honey ant fruit, can be included.]

Seeing this, Gu Heting began to chew in small bites. He carefully peeled away the nectar from the honey ant fruit. The nectar had an indescribable taste—both sour and sweet.

It looks like a bayberry.

It also resembles an unripe grape.

After a few bites, I felt dizzy and lightheaded.

It seems this thing is slightly poisonous. Why hasn't it been included yet? I ate a Manjusaka fruit and it was included after only a few bites. Different rare and precious herbs have different inclusion requirements.

He was puzzled and found it strange. But after taking a few bites, the tingling, toxic sensation made him want to close his eyes and take a nap.

Gu Heting ate and slept, slept and ate. He ate until the next day, just as dawn was breaking.

As dawn broke, Feng Xianshu finally responded.

The roots of the tree emit a fragrant aroma.

[Phoenix Carrying a Book]

[Update has begun]

The "Millennium Honey Ant Fruit Picture Album" has been updated.

Skills related to honey ant flowers and fruits are beginning to awaken.

[The fragrance of flowers, fruits, and wood calms the mind and soothes the spirit.]

"this........."

"Is it going to be another health-preserving exercise?"

Looking at the prompts on the Phoenix-Inscribed Book, Gu Heting figured it was definitely a health-preserving exercise. If only he had known earlier that it was just a health-preserving exercise…

He wouldn't venture into an anthill at night.

It feels like such a thankless task to go through all this trouble to find a health-preserving exercise.

This exercise is called: The Liver-Soothing Technique with Eyes Closed.

Nourish your Qi and calm your liver; avoid irritability and anger.

A gentle breeze soothes the mind; the fragrance of fruit calms the liver and kidneys.

[This cultivation technique belongs to both wind and wood attributes.]
