Although this first-grade high-grade spiritual vein of the Zhang family is not of high grade and cannot support the practice of foundation-building monks, this spiritual vein is a water-attribute spiritual vein. Every ten years, it can give birth to a kind of water called Shui Han. stone treasure.
Water cold stone is an important material for refining the second-level water attribute flying sword.
After meeting Zhang Deming, the head of the Zhang family, Song Minghui expressed her intention to come.
Zhang Deming was very happy to learn that the Qingshan Sect was willing to help the Zhang family fight against the ant colony.
The Zhang family almost relied on planting spiritual fields to survive. Now the spiritual fields were attacked by ants and almost eaten away. This made everyone in the Zhang family very angry and wanted to wipe out all these marching ants.
The most important thing for the continuation of the family is that resources must not be cut off.
Fortunately, the mortals of the Zhang family have their own secular properties, so they will not starve to death, and they can have enough food and clothing.
But the Zhang family monks are different.
They all rely on the resources produced by the Zhang family to cultivate immortality. They receive some spiritual stones from the family every year to practice, and they all rely on the family.
Without the main income of the spiritual field this year, the Zhang family had to use the family treasury to maintain the practice of the family monks.
Even so, resources are far from sufficient. This left sixteen cultivators of the Zhang family, including the patriarch Zhang Deming, waiting for food.
Zhang Deming had a headache for several days because of this incident, and he couldn't wait to take action now to clean up those damn marching ants.
"Since my Zhang family experienced a small-scale locust plague more than a hundred years ago, we still managed to survive that locust plague and managed to reproduce and inherit it to this day, but we didn't expect to encounter a larger-scale ant colony this time."
"After such chaos, it is a pity that my Zhang family is weak and has few monks. It is impossible to completely eliminate this ant colony and spread it towards Guangde County."
"If we hadn't been helpless, we wouldn't have turned to Senior Xu for help in the end and asked him to worry about my Zhang family."
"This time, if the Qingshan Sect can send you to assist, there must be many seniors to help. On behalf of the Zhang family, I, Zhang Deming, would like to thank the Qingshan Sect for this kindness, and I will repay you twice as much in the future!"
"Clan Chief Zhang doesn't need to be so polite. He helps you clean up the ant colony. This is also an effort to protect the peace of Guangde County."
"We'd better chase down the ant colony as soon as possible, and don't let them continue to cause trouble. If we clean it up one day earlier, the big stone in our hearts will be able to fall earlier."
Seeing Zhang Deming looking a little sad, Song Minghui suggested.
"That's fine."
Zhang Deming nodded and was ready to leave.
The place where he is now is not in the Zhang family, but on the city tower in Guangde County.
Over at the Zhang family, now that the spiritual field has been devoured, there is nothing left that can interest the marching ants.
This ant colony is now rushing towards Guangde County. It is not moving very fast, but in the past two days, it has gradually spread to the suburbs of Guangde County.
The Zhang family has been following the traces of this ant colony, chasing and clearing it out again and again, so they have a very clear grasp of the location of the ant colony.
Zhang Deming took Song Minghui and five others straight to a temporary nest where the ant colony was located.
Army ants, unlike locusts, are not always on the move.
They have a very remarkable characteristic.
It likes to build temporary nests as a temporary residence to rest.
This also makes cleanup easier.
If you can find the temporary nest of this ant colony, and then find a way to do it, it won't be too difficult to kill them all.
For this reason, Zhang Deming already had a good plan and thought of how to easily deal with the ant colony.
However, with the Zhang family's monks, their strength is still too weak.
He needs help from several late-stage Qi training monks.
Fortunately, Song Minghui and others came to help them in times of need.
"Everyone, please follow me."
The news of this marching ant colony's attack was still just spreading.
In order not to cause panic among the residents of the city, the news was only circulated among the monks.
Currently, only the Qingshan Sect is participating in assisting the Zhang family.
Even so, it is enough to deal with this group of army ants.
Since family monks were dispatched around the clock to track the ant colony, everyone quickly arrived at the location where the ant colony was building its nest.
This lair is built on a hillside, and the location is quite easy to find.
The biggest requirement for army ants to build a nest is that the soil must have water-attribute aura. This place is close to the formation spiritual veins of Guangde County, and the spiritual veins are filled with auras of both water and wood attributes.
Army ants are extremely small, about the size of a thumb. The nests they build, based on the huge number of ant colonies, make the nests very large and can fully accommodate monks to enter them.
"Clan leader!"
Seeing Zhang Deming's arrival, the monks from the Zhang family who were stationed here quickly stepped forward to greet them and reported the situation of the ant colony to Zhang Deming.
When he saw Song Minghui and the other five people, he couldn't help but look at them a few more times, guessing that they might be fellow Taoists who were here to help.
Zhang Deming chatted with fellow monks for a few words, and then informed Song Minghui and others about the situation of the ant colony.
"There are more than half a million army ants in total, and they are basically all in this nest at this time."
"My skills as a monk from the Zhang family are inferior to others. I can only track them, but I am unable to clean up the ant colony. I still have to rely on the help of my fellow Taoists."
Zhang Deming smiled bitterly and pointed out the specific location of the ant nest.
"To eliminate this ant colony in one fell swoop, we still need the help of the Zhang family. I wonder if Patriarch Zhang has any good ideas for eliminating this ant nest?"
It was Zhang Nianchuan who spoke this time.
Zhang Nianchuan and Song Minghui are the two people with the highest cultivation level in the five-person team.
Because Song Minghui is older than Zhang Nianchuan and is often called Senior Sister Song, Lin Han, Chu Qin and others will follow Song Minghui's command by default.
But once Zhang Nianchuan comes forward, he can also be the leader.
"Since everyone is here, let's use poison or fire to clean up the ant colony and kill them all in one pot!"
Zhang Deming expressed his thoughts.
To deal with large numbers of insect swarms, poison fumigation and fire attack are very effective methods.
Just like once clearing a swarm of locusts, using fire-attribute spells can cause large-scale damage to the swarm.
If the monk were to clean them one by one with his sword, he would probably run out of mana before half of the insect swarms were eliminated.
"I think this method is feasible, so I'll do it."
Song Minghui made a prompt decision.
Zhang Deming didn't waste any more time and immediately summoned the Zhang family monks, a total of ten people came to help fight against the ants.
Everyone started walking towards the entrance of the ant nest.
Zhang Deming was very cautious and told all the monks to pay attention to the surrounding environment. Once a single army ant is found, it must be eliminated immediately.
Army ants are social pests. Once a single army ant discovers an enemy, it will immediately return to the nest and report to the queen.
