Immortality: Raising an Ant Queen to Cultivate by increasing stat points - Chapter 577 - Chapter 577: Chapter 564: Dragon King, Gold Devouring Ant

Chapter 577: Chapter 564: Dragon King, Gold Devouring Ant

Qin Niu knew full well that the Invisibility Talisman could only maintain its effect for an hour or two. If he couldn’t escape within that time, he would almost certainly die.

Facing an Immortal Monarch, he didn’t even consider the possibility of a sneak attack or a counterkill.

If the opponent was just an Immortal Envoy, perhaps he could have fought back. At the Immortal Monarch level, any such fantasies were pure foolishness.

He quietly rushed outward, only to quickly discover that he had fallen into the enemy’s trap formation. No matter how he tried to escape, he was always surrounded by a sea of fire.

The magical treasure deployed by an Immortal Monarch was indeed no small matter.

Under the power of mana, the Flame Flag sealed off an area to form a trap formation. He simply couldn’t escape.

Time was rapidly slipping away, and Qin Niu’s heart filled with despair.

Who could have imagined that upon joining the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect, he would encounter such misfortune? The enemy’s strength was beyond imagination. Crucially, the most powerful Sect Master of the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect was in the midst of a centennial life-or-death seclusion, and no one could withstand the overwhelming ferocity of Huoyun Ancestor and Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch.

The Immortal Monarch, Haosnow, was gradually losing the capacity to withstand the attack from Huoyun Ancestor. His Ice Armor was showing a multitude of cracks, and the situation was perilous.

This made Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch start to worry internally.

Because Qin Niu had used an Invisibility Talisman and had been hiding within the trapped formation without being discovered, and had withstood the scorching of the flames, remaining unharmed, Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch’s desire for Qin Niu’s supposed treasure grew even stronger.

He must kill Qin Niu before Huoyun Ancestor defeated Haosnow Immortal Monarch to stealthily obtain the treasures on Qin Niu.

Otherwise, once Huoyun Ancestor was free to join, there would be too many uncertainties.

“Boy, taste the Innate True Fire that this Immortal Monarch has cultivated for over five hundred years!”

Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch gritted his teeth, deciding to unleash his most powerful technique.

The Innate True Fire was extremely important to him, something he would not use lightly. It was only in desperate times that he would utilize it.

For him, Innate True Fire was as vital as the inner core cultivated by a demon beast.

Using Innate True Fire against Qin Niu, a mere Immortal Master, was like using a cleaver to kill a chicken.

But because the Innate True Fire was intricately linked to his soul after cultivation, it was also easier to break Qin Niu’s invisibility.

Whoosh!

A blast of blazing white fire erupted from Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch’s mouth.

In an instant, the temperature inside the trap formation doubled, reaching at least fourteen to fifteen hundred degrees.

Sensing danger, Qin Niu’s Fire Lotus Platform began to operate on its own, frantically absorbing Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch’s Innate True Fire.

“Damn it, what kind of treasure is this?”

Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch immediately panicked.

Every wisp of his Innate True Fire was painstakingly cultivated and accumulated, and now it was diminishing at an alarming rate.

What’s more terrifying was that his Innate True Fire was tightly bound to him, and he couldn’t retract it.

“Die for this Immortal Monarch!”

Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch went completely mad, launching indiscriminate attacks within the trap formation.

Unfortunately, his two strongest methods, flame and lightning, were ineffective against Qin Niu. He now seemed more like he was trapped in a quagmire, struggling in vain.

As Qin Niu’s Fire Lotus Platform absorbed the Innate True Fire, it began to grow at an astonishing rate, like a barbaric beast.

That was a valuable thing, the energy of flames that an Immortal Monarch had cultivated for hundreds of years.

The Fire Lotus Platform spun faster and faster, like a ravenous monster.

Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch saw his Innate True Fire depleting and felt terror and heartache, but could no longer retrieve it.

He now faced a terribly difficult choice: either ask for Huoyun Ancestor’s help immediately or give up the Innate True Fire he had bitterly cultivated for many years.

Asking for Huoyun Ancestor’s help could possibly save his remaining Innate True Fire, but all the treasures Qin Niu possessed would definitely be taken by Huoyun Ancestor. That would be a devastating loss for Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch.

“Let’s see if other methods of this Immortal Monarch will work. I refuse to believe that I can’t take down a mere Immortal Master.”

After pondering, Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch made a decision.

If he killed Qin Niu, all losses could be compensated.

This would also be the most erroneous decision in Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch’s life.

…

Boom!

The Flame Flag suddenly burst apart, scattering fragments in all directions, while the flames burst outward like fireworks.

Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch emerged with disheveled hair and a pale face.

He looked utterly defeated, with his vital energy in disarray and appearing to have suffered a significant blow.

The other members of the Fire Cloud Tunnel were astonished to see Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch so embarrassingly outmatched by a mere Immortal Master.

“Chix Xiao, what’s going on?”

Huoyun Ancestor asked with a grim face.

His battle against Haosnow Immortal Monarch wasn’t going so smoothly either. Although he eventually broke Haosnow’s Ice Armor, Haosnow managed to flee into the nearby Great Snow Mountain at a crucial moment, causing Huoyun Ancestor to hesitate to pursue and kill.

“The brat is slippery as an eel. Somehow, he took all my Innate True Fire,” Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch said, his heart bleeding with each word.

He failed to catch the prey and instead got a face full of embarrassment, even losing the Innate True Fire he had cultivated over many years.

“To take your Innate True Fire, he must be no simple character. Where is he?”

Huoyun Ancestor was an Earth Immortal, considering himself one of the strongest beings in this realm.

As long as one reached the Earth Immortal Realm, they could act with impunity in this world, existing at a transcendent level.

Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch, with his face of shame, lowered his head and gritted his teeth, “He slipped away using an Invisibility Talisman!” To have an Immortal Monarch go all out against an Immortal Master was a bit ludicrous to begin with.
