High-level martial arts: Invincibility starts with basic archery.

In the blink of an eye, half of the underground space was covered by acid rain, leaving no room to hide.

Just then, Chen Fan released the bowstring, and with a loud bang, the arrow shot out.

The large amount of acid in front of them was completely evaporated by the massive amount of true energy attached to the arrow.

The remaining acid spilled onto the ground and walls, making a hissing sound.

A look of human-like shock appeared in the exposed giant eyes of the Bloodthirsty Ant King.

Then it opened its mouth again, and a large amount of acid poured out.

Unlike last time, this time the acid was poured out in a torrential downpour.

Instead, they converged and gushed forth like a fountain, colliding with the incoming arrows.

The true energy attached to the arrow was being consumed at an alarming rate.

Consequently, the speed of the arrows also slowed down.

"The speed of the Sun-Shooting Arrow is still too slow."

Seeing this scene, Chen Fan thought to himself.

When dealing with the previous dragonmen, his sun-shooting arrows were easily dodged by them.

Even at such a short distance, the bloodthirsty ant king was able to react and use acid to defend itself.

However, this bloodthirsty ant king is no simple character.

This guy has managed to make so many variations out of a mere acid.

If this guy manages to successfully infiltrate Anshan City...

I wonder how many people will die from its indiscriminate attacks.

"Unfortunately, that opportunity will never come."

Chen Fan muttered to himself as a second arrow appeared in his hand and was nocked on the bowstring.

"boom!"

A second arrow came flying in.

The Bloodthirsty Ant King noticed the arrow, and the next moment, it spat out a second stream of acid from its mouth, intercepting the second sun-launching arrow in mid-air.

However, it was visible to the naked eye that the second stream of acid it sprayed was smaller in scale than the first, and the speed at which the true energy on the arrow was corroded was also much slower.

"?"

Chen Fan frowned, then let out a cold laugh.

He didn't have many arrows in his spatial storage, but he still had a couple hundred.

And how many more streams of acid can this guy spew out of his mouth?

Just as he was thinking this, the ground suddenly trembled.

Large numbers of bloodthirsty ants broke through the soil.

Some opened their iron pincers and charged at him menacingly.

Some lunged at the two arrows in mid-air.

Chen Fan seemed not to see it, aiming at the Bloodthirsty Ant King and firing three Sun-Shooting Arrows in succession.

"boom!"

Amidst the deafening roar, countless bloodthirsty ants were blasted to pieces.

And the bloodthirsty ant king did indeed spew out a third stream of acid.

Unfortunately, there were just too many arrows coming at us.

The fourth arrow struck its body directly, blasting a large hole, and the acid spraying from its mouth stopped abruptly.

Then, several arrows struck simultaneously, blasting the bloodthirsty ant king down to just one pincer.

Seeing this, Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

The reason why so many bloodthirsty ants suddenly appeared.

It was because this bloodthirsty ant king knew it was no match for its enemies, so it deliberately sent its minions to launch a suicide attack.

Unfortunately, the gap in strength between the two sides was too great.

Soon, Chen Fan killed all the bloodthirsty ants in the surrounding area.

Just as he had expected, there weren't many of these bloodthirsty ants, only a couple hundred.

Chen Fan walked up to the bloodthirsty ant king, bent down, and put the pair of iron pincers on the ground into his spatial storage.

Immediately afterwards, he took out the map that Meng Xue had given him, looked at it for a while, and then continued walking forward.

The bloodthirsty ant colony actually has two leader-level bloodthirsty ants.

One of them was the same bloodthirsty ant king from before, responsible for guarding the bloodthirsty ant colony.

There is also the bloodthirsty queen ant, who is responsible for reproduction. It can be said that the entire bloodthirsty ant colony, including the bloodthirsty king ant, is born from her.

Compared to the Bloodthirsty Ant King, the Bloodthirsty Ant Queen is much larger, but she is not very mobile and her combat power is not very good.

Even so, Chen Fan quickened his pace and headed towards the other party's location.

Along the way, there wasn't a single bloodthirsty ant, as if all the bloodthirsty ants underground had died.

The situation changed when there were only three or four kilometers left to go.

Like a tidal wave, bloodthirsty ants surged from the front of the passage, densely packed and stretching as far as the eye could see.

Undeterred, Chen Fan channeled his inner energy into his fists and feet, charging forward head-on.

The bloodthirsty queen ant is just ahead. If you don't cut the weeds at the root, they will grow back in the spring.

These bloodthirsty ants, controlled by the bloodthirsty ant queen, naturally wouldn't retreat an inch.

But as I said before, the gap in strength between the two sides is simply too great.

Even the Bloodthirsty Ant King couldn't last three breaths against Chen Fan, let alone these high-level ferocious beast-level Bloodthirsty Ants.

However, even as countless companions fell, the bloodthirsty ants behind them continued to advance relentlessly.

Until, not a single bloodthirsty ant remained alive.

Chen Fan took a deep breath and looked ahead.

There was a bloodthirsty ant, about twenty or thirty meters long, lying on the ground, nearly twenty meters tall.

It lacks the large iron pincers that the Bloodthirsty Ant King possesses, and its thoracic legs are so small that they cannot support its body to stand upright. Its abdomen, however, is enormous.

Behind its body, there were countless insect eggs, each taller than a person, densely packed and innumerable.

Sensing Chen Fan's approach, many insect eggs cracked, and numerous bloodthirsty ants, their bodies still covered in sticky fluid, swarmed towards Chen Fan.

Before they could even get close, they were killed by the protective aura emanating from the latter.

"Is this the bloodthirsty queen ant?"

Chen Fan looked up at the other party and had to admit that the appearance of this bloodthirsty ant queen was enough to give him goosebumps.

As he drew his bow and arrow, preparing to take action, a sense of crisis arose spontaneously.

A mental shockwave surged fiercely into the depths of one's mind.

He quickly mobilized all his mental energy to resist, and then felt a sharp pain in his brain, as if he had been pricked by thousands of steel needles.

Fortunately, the pain came on quickly and went away quickly, like an illusion.

But Chen Fan knew that it wasn't an illusion.

Because of that last attack, most of his mental energy was consumed.

Chen Fan's gaze turned serious as he looked at the bloodthirsty ant queen before him.

He originally thought that the opponent didn't have much offensive power, after all, with such a huge size, even moving would be a problem.

But he didn't expect that his opponent was good at mental attacks.

That attack just now would have killed an ordinary A-level Awakened.

The bloodthirsty ant queen seemed not to have expected that the human before her could withstand her full-force attack. Instead, she suffered a backlash, and her aura weakened considerably.

"it's over?"

Chen Fan sneered. Since that's the case, then it's his turn to make a move.

"Humans".

Suddenly, a weak, pleading voice echoed in my mind.

"Please, let me go. You've killed all my children."

Chen Fan was taken aback, and his hand paused.

He first glanced around, then his gaze fell on the bloodthirsty ant queen, and he felt incredulous.

Is this guy talking to me?

A talking, ferocious beast?

"Our race has always lived peacefully here, without attacking your human cities or offending you, has it?"

The bloodthirsty queen ant's eyes were fixed on Chen Fan.

Clearly, it is the one speaking.

However, she wasn't communicating with Chen Fan through her mouth, but through her mind.

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Is this ferocious beast, which is a commander-level beast, really a commander-level beast?

As far as he knew, only beast king-level ferocious beasts could use mental communication.

Beast King level beings can speak human language.

He tried to send out what he wanted to express through his mind.

After trying several times, it finally worked.

"Are you a beast king-level ferocious beast?"

Chen Fan inquired.

No, no.

The bloodthirsty queen ant quickly denied it, replying:

"According to your human classification of the strength of our ferocious beasts, I am not a beast king-level ferocious beast, but only a commander-level one. However, my mental power is much stronger, so I can communicate with you using mental power."

"I see."

Chen Fan nodded.

The bloodthirsty ant king we encountered earlier was nominally an ant king, but in reality, it was merely the commander of the guards protecting this bloodthirsty ant queen.

The queen ant is the true leader of the bloodthirsty ant colony.

This guy's overall combat strength is at the commander level, but in terms of mental strength, he has reached the threshold of the beast king level and can use mental attack skills, which is rare.

Of course, aside from mental attacks, this guy's combat strength is probably at the bottom, not to mention among Beast King level beasts, even among Commander level ferocious beasts.

However, it has one remarkable advantage: it has a strong reproductive capacity.

One ant is equivalent to a whole colony. Even if the entire bloodthirsty ant colony is reduced to just one ant, given some time, it can quickly spawn tens of thousands of bloodthirsty ants and a new bloodthirsty ant king.

"Human, please spare me."

The bloodthirsty queen ant continued to plead.

"I promise I will leave this place and will never harm you humans again."

"Yeah?"

Chen Fan sneered.

The other party could have begged for mercy sooner, but they didn't.

Instead, he first tried to kill himself with a mental attack, and only after suffering the backlash did he begin to beg for mercy.

It is clear that he is cunning by nature, and his words cannot be trusted.

Even if we assume it's true...

Bloodthirsty ants were originally ants that lived nearby. After the mutation, they also lived in this area and never attacked human camps. But that doesn’t mean they won’t do so in the future.

He believed in the Meng Xue sisters.

Their predictions have remained accurate to this day.

These bloodthirsty ants will emerge from the ground during the future beast tide and kill the people in Anshan City.

He can't afford to gamble.

"I'm sorry, but I still feel more at ease if you become a corpse."

After Chen Fan finished speaking, he drew his bow and aimed an arrow at the latter.

"Humans!"

The bloodthirsty ant queen panicked, her body trembling. "Don't kill me! If you're willing to let me go, I'm willing to submit to you forever."

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

Several arrows aimed at the sun whistled out in succession, representing Chen Fan's answer. (End of Chapter)
