Jiang Shaoze, however, looked at the black bag. The bag was ordinary, made of leather, but blue liquid kept flowing out, as if it were endless.

He suddenly said, "I've heard something. When the Pei family was driven out of China, it was because they opened something that had been sealed for a long time without authorization, causing huge losses to the Eight Gates. Moreover, it facilitated the activities of the Eastern Kingdom at sea."

"But no one has ever said what that sealed thing is."

As he spoke, Jiang Shaoze looked at Mu Jin, naturally making the connection to the blue liquid.

Moreover, their current opponent is the Pei family, which is quite a coincidence.

Mu Jin looked at him and said, "You're right, this is what the Pei family used back then."

The ornament naturally said, "Sect Master, the liquid has changed!"

The blue liquid gradually stopped flowing, and large and small bubbles appeared on the surface. Soon, things the size of ping-pong balls took shape, somewhat like ants, and their bodies were covered in an eerie blue color.

"How could this happen?" Jiang Shaoze frowned.

He wasn't afraid, but his face was full of disgust and rejection. These things looked disgusting, and going against them would only get his clothes dirty and give him a strange smell.

Xiao Xun won't like it.

"ah!"

The cat suddenly meowed.

Mu Jin immediately looked at the cat and hugged her anxiously, "What's wrong?"

Bai Jiang also hurriedly looked at the cat. He had heard the sect leader exclaim in such surprise before, which had made him panic as well.

The cat lifted her foot, and several large blue ants were hanging on her shoe. They were covered in sticky liquid, which dripped and formed a string.

The cat looked up at Mu Jin, her face full of discomfort, "Ah Jin, this thing is so disgusting, I..."

Bai Jiang was stunned for a moment.

Mu Jin felt a little helpless, but also a little amused.

“Take off your shoes, I’ll carry you on my back,” he said.

The cat immediately jumped onto Mu Jin's back and flung its shoes far away.

"Ah Jin, what is this?" Cat asked in Mu Jin's ear, "Cat is so scared."

Fear made his eyes shine and his whole body tremble.

"They're almost fully grown!"

Mu Jin knew that the cat's morbid curiosity had resurfaced. She wasn't afraid, but she didn't expose it.

"This is... I don't know when it was sealed away. If you leave even one of these things behind, it will cause endless trouble. If you raise them for a few years, they will grow to a terrifying number."

"The Pei family used it back then, but the Eight Gates were not able to successfully eliminate them all... which allowed the Pei family to keep this trick up their sleeve."

"They are growing, and once they are fully grown, they will start to devour everything in sight."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jiang immediately unleashed his magic, sending out a series of wind blades and throwing out several fire talismans!

The wind blades shredded many Devouring Ants, and the fire talismans ignited upon contact, quickly clearing a blank space on the deck.

However, the blue liquid quickly spread again.

Mu Jin then said, "It's no use. Killing them before they grow up won't help; they'll regenerate."

"Disgusting," Bai Jiang couldn't help but say.

Being surrounded by countless ants, with them crammed together in piles, would probably kill someone with trypophobia.

The group stood still, waiting for the Devouring Ants to quickly take shape.

Soon, tentacles emerged from their heads, their claws became clearer, and the blue slime gradually decreased until it disappeared completely.

Squeaking sounds came from the ship again. They crawled around on the deck and in every corner, making a series of eerie noises.

Bai Jiang threw out fire talismans and wind blades again to clear out the Devouring Ants around them.

The fire talisman seemed to be working well, but the seawater kept crashing up and it was quickly extinguished.

"Too much trouble."

Jiang Shaoze suddenly spoke, and at the same time, he quickly made a hand seal, and suddenly a rain of fire fell from the sky!

Moreover, the flames grew larger and larger, eventually becoming the size of a football! They rained down on the ship in dense, overwhelming numbers!

The fire was raging, and the seawater crashing up made it impossible to extinguish for a while.

However, after burning for a while, Jiang Shaoze noticed something unusual. He felt a sharp pain in his head and abruptly stopped the spell.

"What's going on?" he asked, puzzled.

Mu Jin merely glanced at him and asked, "Is your spiritual power insufficient?"

Jiang Shaoze nodded. "Why?"

This shouldn't be happening. He hasn't even used any more powerful spells yet. This rain of fire shouldn't consume too much spiritual energy.

General Bai: "Me too."

He noticed it too, but wasn't sure, so he didn't say anything.

Mu Jin said, "The Devouring Ants can devour spiritual power. The spells you use will all become its food."

Sure enough, after the water receded, the number of ants on the deck did not decrease; in fact, they grew larger!

"They've grown up! How scary!" The cat hugged Mu Jin's neck tightly.

She kept her head down, but her eyes were still visible as she stared at the grown-up Devouring Ants.

Jiang Shaoze looked at Mu Jin and asked directly, "How are we supposed to kill this thing? Don't tell me we have to chop it up one by one. I'd rather call in a plane and leave."

That's really mean; leaving the boat here so quickly.

Anyway, Jiang Su's ship was right behind them to cover their retreat, which was very convenient.

The cat looked up at Jiang Shaoze and said, "Then you should leave! Xiao Xun won't abandon me."

Jiang Shaoze's face immediately turned ashen. He shut his mouth and stopped talking about arranging the plane.

At that moment, the Devouring Ants had already crawled towards them, as if they wanted to eat them.

Jiang Shaoze and Bai Jiang had no choice but to take out their knives and slash.

Cat took out a whip and lashed it across the ground. Instantly, a circle of Devouring Ants were shattered and blasted away.

That disgusting thing actually tried to bite Ah Jin.

“Ah Jin, actually…” Cat whispered.

However, before she could finish speaking, Mu Jin said, "No need, leave it to me, don't do it."

The cat raised its head slightly, looked at Mu Jin, and said, "Oh."

What she meant was that if it were her, dealing with these annoying Devouring Ants would be a piece of cake; her black mist was something these Devouring Ants couldn't digest.

But Ah Jin wouldn't allow it, so she stopped mentioning it.

Bai was busy cleaning up the Devouring Ants and had no time for anything else.

Jiang Shaoze quickly cleared a path and arrived at the cabin door, where he drove away and killed the Devouring Ants, preventing them from entering the cabin.

Just then, Mu Jin suddenly reached out her hand, and blue star trails instantly spread out!
