Chapter 1748: Chapter 1748: Kill All These Hongmeng Academy Disciples
Ninety-seven!
Under Yang Xiaotian’s efforts, he finally assimilated ninety-seven formation runes.
However, at this time, the Emperor of the Black Ants and others had already arrived within ten miles.
Ten miles!
Yang Xiaotian could feel a terrifying pressure pressing down on him.
Ninety-eight!
When Yang Xiaotian assimilated ninety-eight formation runes, the Emperor of the Black Ants and his party were already within nine miles.
If not for Master Ding sealing the surrounding space, his Eternal Holy Body power would have been discovered by the Emperor of the Black Ants and others long ago.
However, even with Master Ding sealing the surrounding space, if the Emperor of the Black Ants approaches within six miles, he will discover Yang Xiaotian’s Eternal Holy Body power.
Ninety-nine!
Under the strong pressure of the Emperor of the Black Ants’ powerful aura, Yang Xiaotian finally assimilated ninety-nine formation runes.
Only one more to go.
As the Emperor of the Black Ants approached, Yang Xiaotian’s assimilation speed was somewhat affected.
When the Emperor of the Black Ants and his party arrived within seven miles, Yang Xiaotian finally assimilated the last formation rune.
Yang Xiaotian saw a hole melted through the grand array and quickly flashed in, entering the grand array.
With a wave of his hand, a mass of grand array runes flew out, gathering over the hole to patch it.
As long as they don’t get close to this hole in the grand array, the Emperor of the Black Ants and others will not notice anything unusual.
After patching the hole in the grand array, Yang Xiaotian immediately used the Chaos Five Elements Escaping Technique to hide his presence and approached the palace gates.
At this time, the Emperor of the Black Ants and others had finally arrived within six miles.
“The person who came just now, was it someone from the Hu Family?” a master behind the Emperor of the Black Ants speculated.
Because the person was wearing a mask, everyone was unable to identify who it was.
However, the Black Ant Clan owned a piece of Black Gold Mysterious Iron, which the Hu Family had coveted for a long time, trying to steal it before.
“Not someone from the Hu Family.” The Emperor of the Black Ants suddenly spoke.
Everyone was taken aback.
“The person should be from Hongmeng Academy’s Main Campus,” the Emperor of the Black Ants said in a deep voice.
Everyone was surprised.
“Hongmeng Academy’s Main Campus? Why would someone from Hongmeng Academy’s Main Campus come to our Black Ant Imperial Palace?” a Black Ant Clan elder asked, puzzled.
“Could it be related to the trial tasks of new disciples from Hongmeng Academy?” one person suggested. “It seems that Hongmeng Academy’s Heavenly Fire Branch Campus has a batch of new disciples whose trial task is to enter the Sea of Black Ants to kill Black Ants.”
“They are now in the Sea of Black Ants.”
Hearing this, the Emperor of the Black Ants’ eyes turned cold, “To use our Black Ant Clan’s disciples as trial tasks! Reckless! Pass the command to kill all these Hongmeng Academy disciples!”
“Not a single one can be allowed to escape.”
Hearing the Emperor of the Black Ants’ order, the experts of the Black Ant Clan respectfully complied.
With the Emperor of the Black Ants’ command, the Black Ant Army swarmed out from various nests like a tide, making the entire Sea of Black Ants even darker under the influence of the Power of Black Ant.
Yang Xiaotian arrived in front of the palace doors and found that there were no restrictions on them, carefully pushing them open.
When the doors opened, Yang Xiaotian was stunned by the scene before him.
The great hall before him was filled with all kinds of Divine Iron and Divine Stone, and even Sun God Stones and Five Elements Holy Stones!
These Five Elements Holy Stones had all reached the Dao Level.
Even the smallest were the size of three to four fists.
Were these Dao Level Five Elements Holy Stones obtained by the Black Ant Clan from the Five Elements Holy Mountain?
Yang Xiaotian looked toward the corner of the hall.
In the corner was a pile of Sun Holy Fruits, and besides Sun Holy Fruits, there were many other peculiar Holy Fruits.
As for the space above the great hall, Dao Holy Veins floated like swimming dragons.
These Dao Holy Veins had not been cut, but they were all of lower grade.
On the walls, there were four Secret Tomes engraved.
These four Secret Tomes all had Sword Dao Prohibitions.
Yang Xiaotian stepped forward, using the power of the Primordial Sword Body, he wiped away one of the Secret Tome’s Sword Dao Prohibitions with a stroke of his hand.
He took down the Secret Tome, opened it, and found it was a Sword Path Holy Technique, and a Defying Heaven’s Top Tier Holy Technique at that.
Seeing that it was a Sword Path Defying Heaven Top Tier Holy Technique, Yang Xiaotian was overjoyed.
Master Ding had given him a hundred and one Sword Path Defying Heaven Top Tier Holy Techniques, and he was close to mastering them all at Peak Extreme Realm, with only a few left.
He was in need of Sword Path Defying Heaven Top Tier Holy Techniques.
Since this was a Sword Path Defying Heaven Top Tier Holy Technique, the other three might be as well.
With this thought, Yang Xiaotian quickly used the power of the Primordial Sword Body to break other three Secret Tomes.
Sure enough, the other three Secret Tomes were also of the Sword Dao, and all were Defying Heaven’s Top Tier Holy Techniques.
After confirming this, Yang Xiaotian collected all four Secret Tomes for further study after returning.
Subsequently, Yang Xiaotian took all the Sun Holy Fruits, Sun God Stones, and Dao Five Elements Holy Stones on the ground.
As for those lower grade Dao Holy Veins, Yang Xiaotian took them all as well.
Yang Xiaotian also found a bottle of Tenth Layer of Dao Holy Water in the corner.
And it was a large bottle, with six to seven thousand sips!
Master Ding had now recovered to the Tenth Layer Peak, and with a few thousand more sips of Tenth Layer of Dao Holy Water, he could recover to Era Strike.
However, Yang Xiaotian searched the entire great hall but did not find the Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine.
Seeing there was no Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine, Yang Xiaotian didn’t stay longer, flashing out of the palace, then using the Chaos Five Elements Escaping Technique to exit through the original hole in the grand array, flying towards the outside of the imperial palace.
Of course, he did not forget why he came to the Sea of Black Ants.
Now, he was still far from his goal of three thousand, so he had to hurry up.
So, as soon as he left the imperial palace and encountered a solitary Black Ant, Yang Xiaotian acted without hesitation.
However, solitary Black Ants were rare, and Yang Xiaotian managed to kill just over a hundred more.
By this time, a whole day had passed.
He had killed fewer than one thousand Black Ants in total.
Yang Xiaotian searched for those nests, but those nests were almost all empty, with fewer than ten Black Ants per nest.
Just as Yang Xiaotian was searching with all his might for Black Ants, suddenly, from the seabed floor deep within the Sea of Black Ants, there was a violent eruption, and an enormous Black Snake surged out, roaring madly. Its giant tail swept across, scattering countless Black Ants.
Upon hearing the roar of the giant snake, the Emperor of the Black Ants and several Black Ant Clan elders’ faces changed.
“Senior Garuda Snake’s condition has relapsed!” a Black Ant Clan elder exclaimed in shock.
“Quickly, go to the treasury to fetch the Soul Calming Stone!” the Emperor of the Black Ants ordered, knowing that only the Soul Calming Stone could restore Garuda Snake’s sanity.
After speaking, he took the lead, soaring towards the royal palace treasury.
He soon arrived at the royal palace treasury.
However, when he arrived at the treasury and used the secret technique to open the grand array prohibition of the royal palace treasury, he found that in the light of the grand array prohibition, there was a hole!
Seeing that hole, the Emperor of the Black Ants and the Black Ant Clan elders who arrived were all stunned.
Immediately, the Emperor of the Black Ants, in a frenzy, charged into the royal palace treasury gate, blasting it open.
