() Kunhuang Sect.
The vast desert seems no different from before.
The hot, dry wind blew up yellow sand all over the sky. The wind became stronger and stronger, the sand and dust gradually obscured the sky and the sun, and the sky and earth became turbid and dark.
This is a normal phenomenon in the desert, but this time it seems a little special.
The special source is that there is a "buzzing" sound in the sandstorm-like scene, which is like the sound made by a large group of tiny creatures rapidly vibrating their wings.
At the same time, on the sand sea that came from the same place as the sandstorm, a dark color quickly spread, like an invisible hand pouring an invisible steady stream of water into the desert, soaking large tracts of sand.
If you observe at a very close distance, you will find that the sand is not soaked with water, but there are some small creatures with a color similar to the sand but deeper, covering the desert in layers.
That is a very common monster in the desert, the sand ant.
However, at present, the number of these sand ants can no longer be described as "common". They are as endless as sand, coming like mountains and seas from some direction.
Not just the ground, the so-called sandstorms are actually formed by countless sand ants with thin wings. The flying ants were overwhelming, like yellow sand blown up by strong winds, no less than a real sandstorm.
As the flying ants approached, the "buzzing" sound became louder and noisier. In the end, it was no longer clear what the specific sound was, and it was just like a ghost crying and a god howling.
In front, various monster beasts emerged from the sand and ran as fast as they could.
A third-level monster, Flying Fire Sand Fox, was accidentally stepped on by another more powerful monster. It howled miserably. Although it used its spiritual power to forcefully prop up its body, its speed inevitably slowed down. In the blink of an eye, it was gone. Swallowed by swarms of flying ants.
Within a few breaths, the flying ants that had submerged its body flew up again, leaving only a white skeleton in place. And when the ground-walking sand ants followed closely behind, not even half a bone was left.
One after another, the monsters fell down, being bitten and cannibalized by these tiny creatures that they used to look down upon. It's not that there is no resistance, but even if their counterattack can kill thousands of sand ants, more sand ants will surge up in an instant, exhausting their spiritual power and physical strength, causing them to eventually become blood eaters.
Only monsters that are powerful enough can deal with this kind of death situation. However, such monsters have already been taken away from the desert by the instigator.
The desert in this area was quickly transformed into a darker color, and this color was still advancing into the distance. Wherever it passed, whether it was monsters or spiritual plants, it all turned into nothingness.
All of this is like a flower of death blooming in the desert. All living creatures will be nourished by it. It will bloom petals one after another, occupying the entire desert with a bewitching and evil attitude.
The position of the stamen is the mountain gate of Kunhuang Sect.
This pearl, which has existed deep in the desert for a long time, was covered with thick dust at some point.
There are not many exquisite buildings left, the streets are full of potholes and dust, and houses that are so simple and unattractive can be seen everywhere. It can be seen that they were built not long ago. After the Nine Lotus Pagoda Incident, the mountain gate should have been repaired, but the repairs were so crude.
What is more eye-catching than these are the five huge potholes in the center of the mountain gate.
These five pits are separated from each other by a certain distance. The entrances of the caves are exposed to the open air, and the tunnels inside are curved, making it impossible to see the bottom of the caves.
There are unusually large sand ants lining up to enter the cave. Their lengths range from a few feet to several feet. When they enter the cave, they carry pieces of milky white paste with rich aura on their backs. When they come out, the things on their backs turn into round sacs. Through the translucent film, Densely packed unknown particles could be vaguely seen inside.
They sent the bags outside the mountain gate and stacked them randomly. After a certain period of time, the capsule will burst and a large number of newborn sand ants will emerge from it. Some of these sand ants will undergo mutations as they grow, or develop thin wings, or be different in size from similar species, or have particularly sharp mouthparts, or have a harder carapace.
Under natural conditions, monsters like sand ants should not reproduce at such a fast rate, let alone mutate at such a high rate. Kunhuang Sect disciples have never heard of sand ants that can reach several feet in length.
Now that they have seen it, they have no intention of paying attention.
They were imprisoned in those simple houses, processing the raw materials sent by the sand ants into a paste. Only after completing a certain quota within a certain period of time can they get a rest opportunity with various restrictions attached.
At first, there was no shortage of resisters. Several elders of the sect led the elites in the sect to rebel against the monsters. The result -
The result can be seen by looking at the current situation.
The bodies of those who resisted were later transported into five caves.
This result is thanks to the man who is lying on his side on the roof of the Kunhuang Sect's main hall with blue-gold feathers growing out of his eyes.
The man lazily basked in the sun. Beside him, the head of the Kunhuang Sect sat cross-legged in the air, not touching the roof of the sect's main hall.
"The human race really has a unique advantage when it comes to using tools to make things."
The man stared at a sand ant, or to be precise, at the paste on the back of the sand ant, and said in a pleasant tone.
The head of Kunhuang Sect lowered his eyes and said nothing.
The man did not feel dissatisfied and continued: "But in the final analysis, it is because you are too weak that you need to rely on external force. The physical body cannot bear the original spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so you create techniques; you have no innate magical powers, so you create secret spells; The sharp teeth and claws are detrimental to the delicate skin and flesh, so you created magic weapons and instruments. But it happened that such a creature took over the world from the hands of our demon tribe. Ha, it is really interesting."
After he finished speaking, after a long time, the head of Kunhuang Sect raised an irrelevant question: "With the current efficiency, are you sure you can achieve your goal?"
"Just barely. I want to hurry up, but your disciples only have this ability. Why don't you hurry them up?"
The man raised one corner of his mouth and smiled jokingly.
The leader stopped talking.
The man added: "As long as several sects don't join forces, there's no need to worry. The catastrophe of the beast tide is ahead, and they will send out at most two sects to deal with us. I guess-"
Before he finished speaking, a royal blue feather suddenly appeared between his fingers.
The man turned over and sat up, rubbed his feathers a few times, and said with interest: "It's the Wufeng Sword Sect."
Leader: "What information did your subordinates find out?"
Man: "What the Taoist in gray robe sold to them is basically credible."
The leader pondered: "Gray-robed Taoist...don't you know this person's identity?"
"I don't know, and I don't need to know. As long as the information this person sells is true, it's enough." The man smiled slightly, "We don't want to offend this kind of existence that is against you."
