Chapter 701: Fire Ants, Refining Crystals

Red gravel, red grass, hot wind, and the sky were all yellow and red, everything was like a flame rising.

Zhan Nianchuan's thick black hair had become curled and yellow, as if it would burn in the next breath. The air he exhaled was also fiery, and his throat was dry and smoking. His body was red, like a cooked prawn.

Although he didn't want to, he had to stop and temporarily recover his mana in this situation.

However, the next moment, a creepy "buzzing" sound came from the surroundings.

Looking at the red clouds rising from the ground, Zhan Nianchuan's face darkened.

In his spiritual sense, countless red light spots shot towards him like a rainstorm.

There are so many fire-attributed spirit insects here!

What's more, these guys don't seem to be affected by the ban on flying.

Just as a few thoughts flashed through his mind, this red cloud composed of countless spirit insects had already arrived above his head, and then shrouded him without any hesitation.

In a flash, the protective spiritual light on Zhan Nianchuan's body was gnawed and riddled with holes, and it seemed that it was about to shatter.

"Hmph! Get out of here!"

Zhan Nianchuan snorted coldly, and the mana in his body rolled into the protective spiritual light. Then, with ten fingers moving, several water balls popped out, rushing these spirit insects far away.

However, these spirit insects were extremely fierce, and the temperature of their bodies was also terrifyingly high. The water balls quickly turned into water vapor and disappeared. These flying ants immediately turned over and flew up and continued to flap their wings, with their sharp jaws flashing a terrifying red light.

"Fire ants, the level is quite high, I didn't expect there are so many here." Looking at the overwhelming red flying ants, Zhan Nianchuan was not surprised but happy.

Fire ants, fire-attributed spirit insects, ranked 81st in the list of strange insects and beasts in the world.

Although it is not ranked high, it is already one of the most powerful flying ants.

Not only is its body extremely hard and difficult to be injured by swords and knives, but it is also not afraid of attacks from other magics except water magic.

What surprised him the most was that this kind of fire ant likes to devour various spiritual objects and spiritual minerals, and produces a kind of spiritual material called refining crystal in its body, which is the top-level fire attribute refining material, and it can be used to refine heaven-level magic tools or even stronger spiritual tools without any problem.

However, how to deal with so many flying ants is a very troublesome thing.

It is impossible to kill them by force, so many fire ants can't be killed even if the mana is exhausted.

Originally, it could be blocked by the Ten Thousand Devouring Ants, because no matter in terms of level or ferocity, his Ten Thousand Devouring Ants are much stronger than these flying ants. But the problem is that the Ten Thousand Devouring Ants are now in the critical period of advancement, and it is impossible to release them to fight the enemy.

Use talismans? Blood loss!

After rejecting all the ant extermination plans, Zhan Nianchuan had to choose to take a risk.

His face twitched a few times, and he took out a jade bottle and held it in his hand, and then slapped a few talismans on his body, and then the spiritual light on his body became stronger, protecting him layer by layer.

Buzz~

Countless red clouds fell on him and began to devour and bite him.

Soon, his whole body was covered by fire ants, and it grew larger and thicker at a speed visible to the naked eye, becoming a huge red ball, which looked extremely terrifying.

"Crack!"

A small and insignificant cracking sound sounded in the deafening buzzing sound of wings.

The whole world was quiet in an instant.

An unparalleled cold air spread out from the center of the ball, freezing everything within a radius of dozens of feet into ice.

Fifth-level spiritual material.

Xuantian Cold Jade!

With a crackle, the thick ice block composed of countless fire ants broke apart. Zhan Nianchuan grabbed the Xuantian Cold Jade with his left hand, his face as pale as paper, and countless ice slag and blood beads gushed out of his mouth. He walked out with difficulty.

He patted the storage bag and put the Xuantian Cold Jade and the fire ants that were frozen to death into it as quickly as possible, and then his expression relaxed.

Without the suppression of the cold air, everything around him quickly returned to normal, as if the previous amazing cold air had never appeared.

"This cold air is too amazing. Fortunately, I have the Red Lotus Earth Fire to protect my internal organs, otherwise it would be funny to be frozen to death by myself."

Zhan Nianchuan muttered to himself, his face full of fear.

After swallowing a pill, he began to operate the Chenhuo True Classic with all his strength, absorbing the extremely abundant fire spirit power around him, and speeding up his pace.

The matter of refining the body can only be tempered by the way, it has been delayed for too long.

......

Hundreds of miles away.

In the fiery desert.

Bao Sanbian was covered with water vapor, and a blue shield covered his whole body tightly, striding forward.

His expression was naturally calm, without any feeling of effort.

As a water-attributed spiritual root cultivator, proficient in water-based magic, and with water-attributed magic tools all over his body, he had a natural advantage in dealing with this climate.

"Hum!"

The flaming red sand rushed into the sky, and a fat and golden beast with a three-foot-long red horn on its head suddenly emerged from the ground and spit out a stream of red-gold flames at Bao Sanbian.

Bao Sanbian let out a slight exclamation, and his steps did not change at all.

The blue light flashed, and the huge head of the extraordinary beast suddenly fell off, and golden-red blood was spilled all over the ground.

We must quickly pass through this ghost desert and take away all the spiritual treasures inside as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Bao Sanbian's speed of advancement became faster and faster.

......

Deep in the desert.

A small river meanders, with smoke rising from it, and the water is fiery red and sticky like lava.

On the calm river surface, there are dozens of red and cracked stones that can be stepped on.

An old man with white hair and a blue hat on his head is looking at the river and these stones with worry.

Thick water vapor diffuses from the hat and covers his whole body.

Obviously, this is an extremely extraordinary water-attributed magic weapon.

The old man's face twitched for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth, took out an ice talisman and slapped it on himself, and then resolutely stepped on the first stone.

Zi!

A pungent burnt smell came, and the old man's face twisted instantly.

There is no doubt that the temperature is far beyond his imagination.

He is also a resolute and decisive person. Without a moment's hesitation, he immediately stepped on the second stone.

Only by passing this river at the fastest speed can there be a chance to seize the treasure.

"Zizi~zizi~"

The stone was covered with blood, and then it instantly became burnt and dry, and the flesh and blood turned into ashes.

The old man's footsteps were like lightning, stepping over the stones one by one, and he was about to rush across the river.

Then his body suddenly shook, and his whole old face turned pale.

An extremely strong pressure suddenly fell on him, slowing his pace tenfold!

After desperately moving forward for a few steps, the old man finally couldn't hold on. He looked at the river bank with only one step left in front of him, let out a sharp roar full of unwillingness, and then his whole body fell into the fiery red and sticky river water.
