Just looking at the mechanism door we just came in, you can tell that this path forward will definitely not be peaceful.
"You see things very clearly." Yang Lan'er smiled.
At the beginning, the ancestor was almost controlled by his inner demons and turned into a demon. After escaping the danger of death, he recorded his experiences in detail. Yang Lan'er accepted the inheritance and naturally gained these experiences, so she felt a little emotional for a moment.
"Entering the world is the best way to practice. The more you see, the more you will understand." Qin Muyan smiled.
After walking for a long time, seemingly at a very stable pace, Qin Muyan suddenly stopped and looked at the ground in front of him.
"What's wrong?" Yang Lan'er, who had been protected by Qin Muyan behind him, poked her head out to take a look, concentrating on being alert.
"Don't you think it's strange that there are three small pits of water in front?" Qin Muyan pointed to the front. In fact, it was pitch black. If it weren't for the spiritual consciousness scanning it with the function of a microscope, nothing could be seen.
As he spoke, Qin Muyan raised his index finger, and a flash of lightning passed by. A trace of lightning force swept out and hit the three small puddles very accurately.
Sure enough, I heard a few screams and saw a flash of blue water, and something was running around.
Yang Lan'er was surprised. She just realized that Qin Muyan actually had a mutant thunder spirit root. Although the Qin family is small, they are all elites! "Huh?" Yang Lan'er probed her spiritual sense and carefully avoided Qin Muyan to check. She was immediately shocked: "Ancient silver snow ants? Such creatures still exist in modern society?"
"You know it?" Qin Muyan felt strange at first. The cave was well ventilated and dry. He hadn't seen a single piece of wet soil along the way, let alone a puddle? Even though it was a tiny puddle that couldn't be seen by the naked eye, it was still strange...
I didn't expect that there was not water in the pit, but real living creatures.
"Ancient silver snow ants are born with ice attributes. They existed only in ancient times and later became extinct. If they grow well, they will have a cultivation base close to the foundation-building stage when they are born. This is absolutely a disaster for today's cultivators!" Yang Lan'er's eyes flashed with doubt: "This group of silver snow ants seems to have degenerated, and their abilities are just innate."
"It should be because of insufficient spiritual energy and food, but a hundred or so innates are enough to take a life." Qin Muyan waved out a flash of lightning to block the blue light that was rushing towards him.
There are not many silver snow ants, only about a hundred, and their bodies are very small, much smaller than ordinary ants, so a hundred of them piled together are not noticeable.
However, this silver snow ant was not big in size and had wings. It originally flew up to attack the two people, but most of it was knocked down by the lightning.
"Wait, leave some behind, don't kill them all." Yang Lan'er said quickly.
The number of silver snow ants was small, so they naturally posed no danger to the two of them, even if they were a group of innates.
What's more, Qin Muyan has the attribute of thunder, which just happens to be able to suppress the silver snow ants. This attack almost led to the extinction of this species.
Yang Lan'er quickly bit her finger and a drop of blood spurted out, which seemed to splash out and split into many strands, falling onto the surviving silver snow ants.
After making a few hand gestures and muttering a few words, Yang Lan'er took out a jar. The living silver snow ants fluttered around for a while and then flew into the jar obediently.
There are still eighteen left. I wonder if they can reproduce... Yang Lan'er thought silently.
Qin Muyan looked at this scene with a frown on his face. How could he forget that Yang Lan'er seemed to be playing with insects.
After covering the jar and collecting it, Yang Lan'er's eyes were solemn: "When I collected the silver snow ants just now, I seemed to sense a residual consciousness. They originally had an owner, but the owner is gone, and the consciousness is relatively weak, so I succeeded in recognizing the owner."
So, the silver snow ant was in a panic at first, because the original owner's thoughts were fighting with her newly attached thoughts.
Fortunately, the silver snow ants' strength has deteriorated and the intention has almost dissipated, otherwise, Yang Lan'er would have to put in a lot of effort.
"What message does that regret contain?" Qin Muyan tried hard to ignore the insects that were likely to be densely packed.
"Protect the tomb of the Meng Emperor and kill as many people as possible, or drive away those who enter the tomb." Yang Lan'er frowned: "Did the archaeological team encounter this group of silver snow ants? What's the situation?"
If they met that group of people, it would not be as easy to deal with as it was for her and Qin Muyan. Each of them was innate, and even the people from the dark world could not deal with them.
"This order may be the last order left by the owner of the silver snow ants." Qin Muyan speculated: "The archaeological team should not have encountered it, otherwise, we should have seen a corpse."
"That's true. Silver snow ants don't eat flesh and blood." Yang Lan'er breathed a sigh of relief: "But there is only one way for us to get in. Is there more than one way?"
"It is very likely that either the silver snow ants were not here at the time, or there must be other ways. It seems that this is really the tomb of the Meng Emperor, and it has been decorated by someone who is proficient in Qimen Dunjia. It is even protected by the formation of the cultivation world. Haven't you noticed that our spiritual consciousness can't penetrate the wall?" Qin Muyan said analytically.
"I think so too. Originally, this mausoleum was completely hidden. It was probably only after a long time that some clues appeared and people noticed it." Yang Lan'er nodded: "The spiritual energy now is not enough for the silver snow ants to survive. It is possible that they were dormant before, so the archaeological team did not encounter them."
"After the stranger entered, the silver snow ant probably woke up, and that's why we encountered it." Qin Muyan was more inclined to this statement.
Otherwise, with insufficient spiritual energy and lack of food, the silver snow ants would have been extinct long ago. How could only a hundred of them survive?
"Let's go. It's a good thing they didn't meet us." Yang Lan'er felt terrified and didn't know what had happened to the archaeological team.
"Slow down. It's very likely that the archaeological team was the first to come in. It was because of this that everything was fine. Many mechanisms and creatures have just recovered. What we are facing now is the complete defense of the mausoleum." Qin Muyan said as he slowed down again.
Along the way, we encountered many traps, many of which had shadows of the world of cultivation, but they were not strong.
With Qin Muyan and Yang Lan'er's strength and experience, they were able to handle it. Moreover, when they passed by, both of them completely destroyed these mechanisms in order to rescue people.
A few more fireballs flying in the air were knocked down. Ordinary people would be scared to death and think they were ghost lights or something.
Qin Muyan and Yang Lan'er saw it clearly. It was actually a talisman, and when the conditions were met, it attacked on its own.
However, the spiritual energy in it was quite weak, so the attack was not very powerful. After Qin Muyan took action, he was able to intercept almost all of it.
"Have you noticed? Some mechanisms are really used to scare people. If ordinary people come here, they will be scared to death." Yang Lan'er said sarcastically.
