"In the depths of the desert, aren’t there even more terrifying things?"
Zhou Yu was not familiar with the terrain here.
But upon hearing Que’er’s words, Zhou Yu also imdiately realized the problem.
Both he and Que’er looked towards the cultivator with the surna Niu.
The cultivator with the surna Niu smiled faintly:
"Miss Que’er, no need to panic."
"Conventionally, there would indeed be more flying ants deeper in the desert."
"However, the black desert wind has already reached Black Sand City."
"Therefore, the depths of the desert are, on the contrary, safe."
"As it happens, I need to handle sothing deep in the desert."
"Rest assured!"
"I won’t let anything happen to you."
Upon hearing this, Que’er hesitated, although she still felt sothing was amiss.
But now, being in this dangerous place, she could only follow the arrangents of the cultivator with the surna Niu.
As for Zhou Yu, he remained silent, but if carefully observed, a faint and undetectable chill flashed in his eyes.
He was not as naive as Que’er.
Even if it were true that the black desert wind had already reached Black Sand City, and there were not many flying ants left deep in the desert.
But who can guarantee that there are no other dangers deep in the desert?
Furthermore, from the cultivator with the surna Niu’s expression and the direction he headed, it was apparent he was very confident with the route.
Undoubtedly, he must have been prepared long ago.
What exactly does he intend to do?
Zhou Yu couldn’t decipher the intentions of the cultivator with the surna Niu, but he didn’t speak, instead quietly heightening his vigilance, observing the situation as it unfolds.
Under the guidance of the cultivator with the surna Niu, the three of them rode a flying boat, and in the blink of an eye, they flew for more than an hour.
At this mont, they had already reached the central region of the desert.
Here, although the wind was calm, everything in sight was peaceful.
However, Zhou Yu felt a sense of danger.
The quieter it was, the more intense his heartbeat beca.
Zhou Yu could no longer afford to spend significant energy watching the cultivator with the surna Niu.
He divided a part of his heart spirit, continuously scanning his surroundings.
And at this mont, the initially speeding flying boat suddenly ca to a stop.
"Arrived!"
Upon hearing this, both Que’er and Zhou Yu simultaneously looked ahead.
At a glance, Que’er imdiately let out a cry of surprise.
"That is..."
Before she could finish, her mouth was directly sealed by the cultivator with the surna Niu.
The cultivator with the surna Niu shook his head at Que’er.
"Miss Que’er, keep quiet, if you spoil my business, that would be quite troubling."
Upon hearing this, Que’er was so scared that her face turned pale, no longer daring to speak.
At this mont, Zhou Yu also revealed a look of shock.
He stared in amazent about a kiloter ahead.
There appeared sothing that resembled a gigantic red hill, and its surface was continuously flowing.
Like lava erupting from a volcano.
With Zhou Yu’s eyesight, he could clearly see.
That was not a hill at all, but a mound of Fire-eyed Flying Ants.
These Fire-eyed Flying Ants were densely crawling together, piled into a mountain.
A simple estimate suggested that the number of Fire-eyed Flying Ants here must be over ten thousand.
It’s worth knowing that even in Black Sand City, under the onslaught of the desert black wind, there were rely ten thousand Fire-eyed Flying Ants.
Yet here, such a large number appeared.
If they were inadvertently provoked, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Que’er trembled with fear, her delicate face turning pale. She looked terrifyingly at the cultivator with the surna Niu.
She truly couldn’t understand why the cultivator with the surna Niu would co here?
Isn’t this like delivering oneself into the mouths of these monsters?
Facing Que’er’s terrified gaze, the cultivator with the surna Niu wasn’t fazed in the slightest; he instead turned his attention to Zhou Yu, showing a look of interest.
"Young Brother Zhou doesn’t seem to be frightened at all!"
Hearing this, Zhou Yu replied with an unperturbed expression:
"Of course, I am scared!"
"However, since Senior Niu has voluntarily co here, I assu you are absolutely confident in handling this swarm of Fire-eyed Flying Ants."
"If you need my assistance, I am more than willing to help."
The cultivator with the surna Niu, upon hearing Zhou Yu’s words, revealed a deeply amused smile in his eyes.
"Interesting."
"Young Brother Zhou, at such a young age, to have such understanding, truly extraordinary."
"But you are indeed correct."
"I do need your help!"
Zhou Yu asked without showing any emotion:
"What does Senior Niu need to do?"
The cultivator with the surna Niu smiled faintly, then touched the ring on his hand, and in the next mont, a large pile of flags appeared before Zhou Yu.
Seeing this scene, a look of surprise suddenly flashed in Zhou Yu’s eyes.
Although he didn’t know how these flags were made, the flags emitted a strong formation aura.
Could it be that these flags are formation tools?
If that’s truly the case, then these magic flags are extraordinarily exquisite.
Zhou Yu was inwardly shocked but outwardly showed a puzzled expression.
"Senior Niu, what are these?"
The cultivator with the surna Niu smiled faintly:
"You don’t need to know what these are. You just need to follow my instructions!"
Hearing this, Zhou Yu pretended to be hesitant for a mont before nodding.
"Alright, I will follow Senior’s instructions."
The cultivator with the surna Niu saw Zhou Yu’s reaction, and a deep smile flashed in his eyes.
"No need to rush, after helping complete the task, I will naturally tell you what these are for."
After speaking, he pointed out more than a dozen locations to Zhou Yu.
Instructing Zhou Yu to quietly bury the array flags in the desert.
This task wasn’t challenging for Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu followed the instructions provided by the cultivator with the surna Niu, going to each designated spot, burying the array flags.
Half an hour later, Zhou Yu had completed all the tasks.
At this mont, he looked towards the cultivator with the surna Niu.
"Senior, they are all buried."
The cultivator with the surna Niu smiled slightl
"Very good, well done!"
"Young Brother Zhou, weren’t you curious about what I’m doing?"
"Now, I can tell you."
With that, the cultivator with the surna Niu pointed to the distant heap of flaming flying ants and said:
"Do you know why these Fire-eyed Flying Ants are gathered here?"
Zhou Yu shook his head.
"No, I don’t."
"It’s simple, because within, there has erged a Fire-Eyed Ant King."
"Fire-Eyed Ant King?"
Zhou Yu showed a look of astonishnt.
"Precisely!"
The cultivator with the surna Niu nodded.
"The Fire-Eyed Ant King is different from the Fire-eyed Flying Ant."
"The Fire-Eyed Ant King possesses the royal bloodline, and upon birth, it has the strength of the Core Formation Stage, and it can continually breed more Fire-eyed Flying Ants."
"Just imagine, if one could ta the Fire-Eyed Ant King, nurture it slightly, and breed hundreds or thousands of Flaming Flying Ants, then release them during battles."
"The scene would be such that even a Nascent Soul Stage expert, if careless, would suffer heavily."
"And if facing soone below the Nascent Soul Stage, it goes without saying, unless they are top-level geniuses, ordinary Core Formation Stage ones would have no chance at all."
"Now, do you understand?"
The cultivator with the surna Niu smiled faintly, looking at Zhou Yu.
