On the other side, Cui Yuhuo was also in a state of distress under the constant attack of a wind-attributed monster. After consuming several defensive talismans, he was able to escape safely from the range of the whirlwind's cutting force.
Of course, as a direct descendant of the Beast Taming Sect, Cui Yuhuo, since he had the courage to come here to take risks and seek opportunities, naturally had his own unique skills.
"Ahem"
Just now, they entered this space that truly gave birth to the Four Symbols Crystals and the Sun and Moon Crystals, which were such natural treasures, and immediately gave them a great show of strength.
The special fog formed by the special black and white miasma seemed to have life. After sensing the special life of the outsiders, it kept twisting and tangling, turning into poisonous dragons and snakes surrounding Cui Yuhuo and the others.
Although he had been mentally prepared before this, and had refined a third-level middle-grade precious pill for detoxification, he could not help but cough violently when he suddenly entered this special environment and was eroded by the miasma. He was inevitably damaged by the miasma during the whole process.
The detoxifying elixir can certainly resist and eliminate miasma to a certain extent, but after all, it is not a precious pill specifically used for miasma. Not only is the effect slightly inferior, but there is also a certain degree of delay and delay in time.
"Fellow Daoist Cui, the miasma here is much thicker than you and I can imagine. We need to be careful. The poisonous insects and beasts living in this place are not easy to deal with. If you are not careful, the consequences of the double attack will be disastrous. You need to be careful and cautious, and take every step carefully."
Thanks to the help of the family's special collection of miasma-resistant spiritual medicines, although Sun Mingsheng also felt the sweetness of it, he was a little relaxed overall.
Whenever a sweet miasma tried to invade his body and wreak havoc to a certain extent, a cool feeling from his dantian would always appear at the right time, and the two would cancel each other out and disappear without a trace, without causing any substantial damage.
Of course, because there were not many spiritual medicines specifically for miasma poison, and it took a long time to find the Four Symbols Crystals and the Sun and Moon Crystals, Sun Mingsheng did not share it with Cui Yuhuo.
After adapting to the rather special environment here, after a simple communication, Cui Yuhuo went ahead and Sun Mingsheng stayed behind, and they went to the depths of the space where the crystals were born in a tacit understanding.
Cui Yuhuo kept staring at a rather worn paper map in his hand as a guide while moving forward, and changed the direction of travel from time to time.
This opportunity was discovered by him by accident, and Sun Mingsheng had never obtained the most detailed location of the six crystals from the beginning to the end.
According to the rules of the cultivation world, in order to prevent accidents, the initiator has the right to remain secret before actually arriving at the predetermined location.
Sun Mingsheng's task is to be vigilant. Once other poisonous insects and beasts with strong toxicity appear, he will respond immediately to buy enough buffer time for the two.
The degree of harm caused by poisonous insects and beasts has no direct correlation with their body size to a certain extent. The key lies in the toxins bred in their bodies.
If the toxin itself is fatal, a poisonous insect only the size of a black-striped ant can easily take its life. On the contrary, if the toxin is not fatal, their threat will drop sharply.
"It is a miracle that the black-striped ants can survive the invasion of miasma. If they swallow a sufficient amount of miasma, it may also be an opportunity for a certain mutation and enhancement."
After experimentally releasing more than a hundred black-striped ants of different cultivation and grades for reconnaissance purposes, Sun Mingsheng got an unexpected surprise.
Not only were the lives of these black-striped ants not threatened, but under the erosion of the miasma, each one was alive and kicking, and seemed to be more active.
"Black-striped ants, go"
Since he had noticed the characteristics of the black-striped ants, Sun Mingsheng would not delay any longer. He immediately restored the ant colony, which was over 50,000 in number, to its peak except for the queen ant, and once again transformed it into large and small ant colonies to explore the surroundings.
The black-striped ant colony itself has two uses. First, as a warning, in front of its huge population, any slight movement around Sun Mingsheng and the others can be detected at the first time.
Second, the black-striped ant colony is also the first line of defense for hunting poisonous insects and beasts. Relying on its huge number advantage, it is enough to gain enough buffer time, or even kill them in the opposite way.
"The black-striped ant colony that Fellow Daoist Sun has carefully cultivated is not afraid of the miasma here. This can save a lot of energy."
Seeing the black-striped ants that were like fish in water and had not been affected by any negative effects, Cui Yuhuo, as the external affairs elder of the Beast Taming Sect, showed a rare look of envy.
No matter where in the cultivation world, black-striped ants are just the most basic spiritual insects, and most of them are refined by low-level cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage.
Who would have thought that Sun Mingsheng would invest sufficient resources to cultivate it all the way to the third stage? It can be imagined that the resources consumed are a bottomless pit.
"They are just some low-level spirit insects, which are not worthy of the attention of the upper sect cultivators. They can only rely on their numbers to provide some assistance. Their magical powers are limited and they cannot take on major tasks."
Sun Mingsheng showed his usual humble smile on his face, and just kept driving the black-striped ant colony forward, searching for possible poisonous insects and beasts, and moving forward smoothly all the way.
Thanks to the protection of a large number of black-striped ants, Sun Mingsheng and Cui Yuhuo moved forward at a very fast speed and did not encounter the invasion of poisonous insects and beasts.
Of course, the black-striped ant colony also suffered a lot of losses in the process. After all, they were only low-level spirit insects, and they were at a disadvantage compared with some poisonous insects and beasts of the same level.
Every time a poisonous insect and beast was killed and devoured, there would always be dozens or hundreds of black-striped ants that died on the spot.
Among them, some black-striped ants of obviously inferior grade and strength died after devouring the corpses of poisonous insects and beasts because they could not withstand the backlash of poison from their bodies.
The black-striped ants that were scouting everywhere also had a certain probability of death once they were in danger. In short, the smooth progress of the two of them was also based on the continuous death of a large number of black-striped ants.
If the black-striped ants did not have a large population, they would not be able to withstand this continuous weakening. Of course, this is also a process of constantly selecting stronger black-striped ants, eliminating the weak and preserving the strong, which is also beneficial to the evolution of the black-striped ant colony itself.
In addition to completing the tasks ordered by Sun Mingsheng, the large number of ant colonies also continuously transported the unique spiritual objects and the hunted poisonous insects and beasts in this unique poisonous fog space back to the spirit beast tower space where the ant nest is located, and presented them to the queen ant for enjoyment.
"Fellow Daoist Cui, be careful, there are a large number of black-striped ants dying ahead, I'm afraid that a powerful poisonous beast is coming"
