Chapter 1502 - 1435: Like Real Brothers

"No?"

Qin Feiyang and the lady from Dragon Phoenix Building exchanged puzzled glances.

The Ant Emperor smiled bitterly, "Look around, there's not even a blade of grass, how could there be elixirs?"

"That's strange!"

"Throughout history, many have entered the Divine Sign, haven't any of them obtained elixirs?"

Qin Feiyang said.

"Of course, there are."

"But the Divine Sign only opens once every ten thousand years, and the elixirs obtained are far from enough for us."

The Ant Emperor explained.

"That's true."

Qin Feiyang nodded, took out a Spiritual Sea Elixir, and threw it to the Ant Emperor.

The Ant Emperor examined the Spiritual Sea Elixir in surprise, discovering it had six elixir patterns?

It looked up at Qin Feiyang and asked, "Did you refine this?"

"Yes."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Not to mention six elixir patterns, he could now refine ones with seven patterns as well.

"Impressive."

"You must be someone important in the outside world."

The Ant Emperor admired, swallowing the Spiritual Sea Elixir.

The elixir melted instantly upon entering, transforming into a torrent of energy flowing into the Qi Sea, immediately beginning to repair it.

"Someone important?"

Qin Feiyang was taken aback, then shook his head with a smile, finding this creature surprisingly endearing.

The lady from Dragon Phoenix Building also smiled gently and looked at Qin Feiyang, saying, "Did you forget something?"

"What?"

Qin Feiyang was stunned, looking at her suspiciously.

"Think carefully."

The Dragon Phoenix Building lady teased, her eyes playful.

Qin Feiyang frowned, pondering with his head down for a moment, then suddenly smacked his forehead as he remembered he hadn't yet helped the lady from Dragon Phoenix Building unchain the Enslavement Mark.

Without hesitation, he promptly helped her remove the Enslavement Mark.

Seeing Qin Feiyang act so decisively, the lady from Dragon Phoenix Building was quite surprised, saying, "I thought you would use this opportunity to negotiate terms with me."

"Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

"You and your mother didn't hold me accountable for taking the Divine Crystal; whether you believe it or not, I'm genuinely grateful rather than being ungrateful in return."

Qin Feiyang said indignantly.

"So, it seems I've misjudged a noble person with shallow thoughts?"

The Dragon Phoenix Building lady chuckled.

"You're not shallow; you're a woman."

Qin Feiyang replied with a cheeky smile.

The lady's face darkened in anger, "Are you looking for trouble, daring to tease me?"

"What if I do?"

Qin Feiyang waved dismissively, full of disdain.

"What if?"

The lady murmured, her lips curling into a playful smile, "Little guy, you'll find out in the future."

Then.

She collected herself, asking, "Where to next?"

"To find the White-Eyed Wolf."

Upon finishing, Qin Feiyang looked at the Ant Emperor, "Prepare to depart, if you have anything to instruct, do it quickly."

"Alright."

The Ant Emperor nodded its large head and turned to the side, calling over some Nine-Star War Emperor Ghost Blood Ants and quietly instructing them.

Shortly thereafter.

Those Nine-Star War Emperor Ghost Blood Ants suddenly let out a cry to the sky, prompting all the Ghost Blood Ants to drill underground instantly.

"Emperor, take care, we'll wait for your return."

Advising the Ant Emperor, those Nine-Star War Emperor Ghost Blood Ants also disappeared into a deep chasm fissure.

"To think that such a noble lineage like mine has fallen to becoming a human's subordinate, it's truly pitiful."

The Ant Emperor sighed deeply internally before running eagerly to Qin Feiyang's side, fawning, "We can depart now!"

Qin Feiyang didn't respond, instead surveying the Ant Emperor up and down.

"Why are you looking at me?"

The Ant Emperor asked curiously.

Qin Feiyang suddenly shook his head, said blandly, "I honestly don't see what's so noble about your lineage."

"Huh?"

"How do you know what I'm thinking?"

The Ant Emperor asked in surprise.

Qin Feiyang didn't answer, instead leaping into the air, landing on the Ant Emperor's back.

The lady from Dragon Phoenix Building followed suit, standing beside Qin Feiyang, silently amused, "Why not tell it you can glimpse its inner thoughts?"

"If I tell it, then I wouldn't be able to know its true inner thoughts."

Qin Feiyang replied mentally, then waved his hand, "Let's go!"

With a belly full of confusion, the Ant Emperor ran towards the northeast direction.

Its large frame was like a heavy machine, shaking the earth and rumbling wherever it passed.

However.

Its Qi Sea hadn't fully repaired yet, so its speed was relatively slow.

Qin Feiyang didn't rush either, sitting cross-legged on the Ant Emperor's back, taking a Battle Intent Elixir, recovering the depleted battle intent.

The lady from Dragon Phoenix Building was also recuperating.

The scorching heat roasted this land.

They both perspired profusely.

Especially after the previous battle, their bodies severely lacked moisture.

Their lips were already cracked.

Especially the lady from Dragon Phoenix Building, her dress soaked with sweat, clinging to certain places on her skin, teasingly revealing.

But now.

Qin Feiyang had no mood to pay attention to these things; he just wanted to find a water source quickly and comfortably soak for a while.

Boom!!!

After the Ant Emperor's Qi Sea repaired, although it couldn't fly, its speed was fast as lightning.

Less than an Hour passed.

The plains' end finally appeared ahead.

Qin Feiyang rose and looked up, seeing beyond the plains was an endless mountain range.

The valleys and peaks undulated.

There were giant peaks towering thousands of zhangs.

Mountain ridges stretching hundreds of Baili.

Yet, without exception, the mountains were barren like the plains, with cracked ground that made one hesitate to advance.

Qin Feiyang asked suspiciously, "Ant Emperor, hasn't it rained here?"

"It's rained before."

"But it's rare to encounter it."

"For the creatures of this continent, having rain once every ten or eight years is already a blessing from the heavens."

The Ant Emperor said.

"Then how do you survive?"

Miss of Phoenix Tower said.

"On one hand, we've gotten used to this harsh environment."

"On the other hand, we all live underground because it's cooler there."

"Not just us ghost blood ants, but all other creatures as well."

"As for places with water sources..."

At this point.

The Ant Emperor fell silent, a deep fear flickering in his eyes.

"Keep talking!"

Qin Feiyang said.

The Ant Emperor sighed, "Places with water sources are usually guarded by powerful beasts. They monopolize the water source and don't allow any other creature near. If anyone dares to force their way in, they will surely die."

"How domineering?"

Qin Feiyang raised an eyebrow and asked, "Then what's guarding the water source you're taking us to now?"

"A ferocious crocodile."

The Ant Emperor said.

"What's its cultivation?"

Qin Feiyang asked.

"Nine-Star War Emperor peak stage."

The Ant Emperor said.

Qin Feiyang asked, "Aren't you also at the Nine-Star War Emperor peak stage, yet you're no match for it?"

"If I could defeat it, I would have already taken over the water source."

"That ferocious crocodile... it's terrifying."

"Not only is it strong, but it also possesses a divine artifact. No creature can harm it."

The Ant Emperor said helplessly.

From the tone, it seemed it had suffered quite a bit at the hands of that ferocious crocodile before.

"A divine artifact!"

Qin Feiyang and the others exchanged looks, their faces full of astonishment.

A ferocious beast actually possessing a divine artifact?

What an incredible thing!

Unexpectedly, just upon entering the Divine Sign, there's already news of a divine artifact.

Qin Feiyang asked, "How far is it to the water source?"

No matter how strong that ferocious crocodile is, he must obtain that divine artifact!

Miss of Phoenix Tower also grew excited.

The Ant Emperor thought for a moment and said, "Leaving the plains and passing through the mountains ahead is where the water source is located. It's approximately over twenty thousand miles away."

"That's not very far."

Qin Feiyang murmured and shouted, "Speed up!"

The Ant Emperor nodded, waving its claws beneath its abdomen, and dashed towards the mountains.

Rumble!

Thud thud!

Its body was so massive that wherever it went, the mountains shook and the earth trembled.

Shhh...

At the junction between the plains and the mountain range, there was a mountain ridge about fifty or sixty meters high.

At that moment.

A group of black spiders was climbing up the ridge from below.

But unlike ordinary spiders.

Their size was large.

The smallest being comparable to a basin.

The largest, several meters long!

They gathered atop the ridge, forming a dense black mass, watching Qin Feiyang and the Ant Emperor from afar, their narrow eyes glinting with a cold light.

As they got closer, Qin Feiyang and the others also noticed those black spiders.

"What kind of ghostly creatures are these?"

Miss of Phoenix Tower exclaimed, her scalp tingling.

"They seem to be Phantom Demon Spiders?"

Qin Feiyang scrutinized them and said, frowning.

"They are Phantom Demon Spiders."

The Ant Emperor said.

Hearing that.

The two exchanged glances, their expressions growing serious.

Because these were creatures on par with ghost serpents!

And like ghost serpents and ghost blood ants, Phantom Demon Spiders also possessed extraordinary abilities.

Namely, they could produce spider silk.

This spider silk was very fine but extremely tough and was coated with a potent toxin that could paralyze the nerves, including those of ferocious beasts.

At first glance, paralyzing nerves doesn't seem that extraordinary.

After all, many venomous insects or venomous beasts have venom with this capability.

However.

The venom of these insects and beasts is nothing compared to the Phantom Demon Spiders.

To the point where the difference is like heaven and earth.

No matter who it is, as long as they're from the same major realm, once they touch the venomous silk of a Phantom Demon Spider, their entire body will instantly become paralyzed.

Note well!

It's not just from the same realm, but the same major realm.

Meaning.

If there's a one-star War Emperor Phantom Demon Spider in front of you, even if you're a Nine-Star War Emperor, you'll be instantly paralyzed.

Unless your cultivation surpasses that of a War Emperor.

Its ability is quite similar to the White-Eyed Wolf's innate divine ability, almost unsolvable.

"You don't need to worry, my relationship with the Spider Emperor is very good. As long as I say a word, it'll let us pass immediately."

Just as the two were worrying, the voice of the Ant Emperor echoed from beneath them.

Miss of Phoenix Tower asked, "Really?"

"Yes."

"Our ghost blood ants and their Phantom Demon Spiders have been living here for generations, with bonds as close as brothers."

The Ant Emperor said with a proud smile.

Miss of Phoenix Tower instantly beamed with joy, turning to Qin Feiyang with an amused smirk, "See, listening to me was the right choice. If you had killed it earlier, we'd surely be facing another tough bloody battle now."

Qin Feiyang shook his head with a helpless smile.

This time, the Ant Emperor truly proved to be a great help to him.
