The Legend of the Demon Hunter

The white flying ant is only the lowest level one magical beast, and its individual combat power is very weak. Its only characteristic is its hard shell. However, with the cultivation level of Xiao Zhu and others, it can be easily destroyed.

But the white flying ants are known as terrifying creatures that can be compared to the beast king. Because once this kind of magic beast appears, there are hundreds of thousands or even millions of them. When such a large number of magic beasts gather together, it can be said that wherever they go, no grass will grow.

Such a large number of magical beasts outside were devoured by the white flying ants in just a few moments. Xiao Zhu had no doubt that if they were found hiding underground by them, the three of them would probably not be able to hold on for more than a quarter of an hour.

"In addition to their vision, white flying ants can also sense the source of spiritual power through the antennae on their heads. We can't hide from them if we hide here. They will find us sooner or later." Xiao Zhu said, but he couldn't think of a better way at the moment and was just worried.

At this moment, Yuanye Ying took out an item. It was a hemispherical magic weapon that emitted a bright light. Yuanye Ying held up the magic weapon with her white jade fingers and handed it to Xiao Zhu.

"This magic weapon is called Qionglu. It can form a formation in this space, completely isolating the spiritual power perception inside and outside, so that the white flying ants cannot find us. Master Xiao, I don't have enough spiritual power to use it, so I ask you to drive it!"

Xiao Zhu took the magic weapon, the Qionglu. The situation was critical, so he immediately injected his spiritual power into the Qionglu. Suddenly, the Qionglu seemed to be awakened from its slumber, forming a powerful suction force that madly sucked the spiritual power in Xiao Zhu's body. In just a short moment, it absorbed one-fifth of Xiao Zhu's spiritual power.

You have to know that Xiao Zhu has psychic blood, and his spiritual power is several times that of ordinary demon hunters of the same level. If the spiritual power absorbed by Qionglu were given to other people, it would probably be more than half of the total spiritual power.

No wonder Yuanye Ying said that she couldn't control it. With her strength only as a spirit hunter, even if all her spiritual power was added together, it would not be enough for this magic weapon to absorb.

Just after the dome absorbed Xiao Zhu's spiritual power, a fluorescent white hemispherical formation was generated, covering the three people like a tiny dome.

After that, the three of them could no longer sense any spiritual power from the outside world. Xiao Zhu understood that this meant that the area where the three of them were located had been completely isolated from the spiritual power of the outside world.

Xiao Zhu suddenly thought that this young Yuan Yeying actually possessed so many rare treasures. No matter whether it was the small and exquisite mirror just now or this dome, they were all precious magic weapons with miraculous functions and amazing power.

After all, the white flying ants were first-level magic beasts, with no intelligence and only acting on instinct. As soon as the dome formation was formed, the white flying ants that had been drilling holes on the ground to look for Xiao Zhu and others suddenly lost their target and began to run around like headless flies.

After about half an hour, the "buzzing" sound outside faded away, and the three knew that the colony of white flying ants had finally given up tracking them.

"Huh——" Xiao Zhu let out a long sigh, and Yuan Yeying's beautiful face regained its color, and Su Lili also showed an expression of relief.

As the white flying ants left, the forest fell into silence. It was a kind of dead silence that had never been seen in the forest at dusk, as if all life around had disappeared.

To be on the safe side, Xiao Zhu continued to maintain the formation of the dome. More than an hour passed, during which time he kept paying attention to the movements around him. After confirming that there was nothing unusual, he withdrew the formation and returned the dome to Yuan Yeying.

"Thank you, you saved us again." Yuanye Ying said after taking the dome chariot handed over by Xiao Zhu.

"No need to thank me, I'm saving myself as well." Xiao Zhu replied.

After the catastrophe just now, the relationship between the three people became closer. Yuanye Ying tried to ask Xiao Zhu about his situation: "Mr. Xiao, do you have a sect? Why did you come to the Dusk Forest alone?"

"I'm from the Demon Hunter Association. In addition to me, the Demon Hunter Association also arranged other people to come and look for Yuanwu. I was delayed because of something, so I came a step late and ended up alone." Xiao Zhu briefly introduced his situation.

"Monster Hunter Association!" Yuanye Ying looked at Xiao Zhu in surprise. Although there was no branch of the Demon Hunter Association in Tianfang Kingdom, Yuanye Ying had naturally heard of the Demon Hunter Association as the world's largest demon hunter organization.

"With your age and strength, you must be very valued in the Demon Hunter Association!" Su Lili took over the conversation.

"The Demon Hunter Association is full of experts. I am just a soul hunter and cannot stand up to the standard." Xiao Zhu did not want to continue talking about this topic, so he spoke vaguely on purpose.

With the intelligence of Yuan Yeying and Su Lili, they naturally understood what Xiao Zhu meant. They were silent for a moment and said, "It should be safe outside. Let's go out and take a look!"

"Yeah." Xiao Zhu nodded, and then he cast a spell, and a crack appeared in the ground again, allowing sunlight to shine in. The three people were so bright that they couldn't open their eyes.

When their eyesight recovered, the three walked out of the dungeon. When they saw the scene outside, they were so shocked that they were speechless.

Everything around had changed beyond recognition. Within a radius of several kilometers, the leaves of the trees had been eaten clean, revealing bare branches. The ground was littered with the remains of monsters, and the soil was dyed a blood-red due to the infiltration of monster blood.

The air in this area was filled with a strong fishy smell.

It was early morning, and the sunlight was shining on the ground. Xiao Zhu thought that he had not seen the sunlight for a long time since he entered the Dusk Forest. Now, because the branches and leaves of the trees were eaten away, the sunlight from the east sky finally fell on the ground, but this sunlight was dyed red by the blood-red ground. Not only did people not feel a trace of warmth, but there was even a biting coldness that struck their hearts.

It was a bloody dawn, a hellish scene!

Looking down at the ground from the air, this area looks like a scar on the forest.

Yuan Yeying and Su Lili were the first two women who couldn't bear it anymore. They held onto the trees and began to retch. Xiao Zhu also felt palpitations and wished he could leave the place immediately.

"Let's leave here first!" Xiao Zhu said.

The three of them reached a tacit understanding in an instant. Regardless of the dangers in the sky over the Dusk Forest, they flew towards the depths of the forest at the fastest speed. They flew for half an hour. In fact, they had already left the area that had been invaded by the white flying ants, but the three of them tacitly did not stop and wanted to stay away from that place as much as possible.

At this time, the three of them saw a strange scene on the ground. In the lush forest, there was an ancient building. The building was made of yellow sand and huge stones, but it looked like it had been abandoned long ago, leaving only these deserted ruins to weather in the long river of time.

"Could this be the legendary ancient city of Loulan?" Yuanye Ying widened her eyes in disbelief.
