Chapter 820 - 629: Close Encounter_3
"..."
This sounds rather awkward.
However, upon closer thought, it seems there is no issue.
Ling Chong was at a loss for how to retort.
Dragon Cypress added, "In case any of you unfortunately die in battle, I will compensate with a Divine-Grade Fruit worth 5 million. Any Divine-Grade Fruit will do; if you need one, you can arrange with Snow Velvet Spider King later."
— Lavish generosity! What type of Divine-Grade does the ant possess?
The three Butterfly Kings were secretly shocked, skeptical yet believing.
Dragon Cypress further added, "I won't acknowledge intentional suicide. Especially, don't let me lose my life. If I'm dead, you won't get anything."
...
The White Crystal Butterfly King reluctantly nodded its tentacle.
Both Jacaranda and Rainbow Parasol Butterfly Kings remained silent, tacitly agreeing.
The clouds under Dragon Cypress contracted, transforming into the shape of a giant ant head, diving downward. Flying high three to four hundred meters above the sea, it rushed northward, heading towards the Kirin Beast Ant King.
The three Butterfly Kings accompanied on either side.
Dragon Cypress concentrated, thoughts racing, calculating the distance between the two sides.
Estimating it was close, it quietly activated the Soul-Setting Ability, flashing by, suddenly shocked.
Directly below, a dense cluster of ant-shaped souls formed a giant sea serpent-shaped sea beast, accompanying its movement, obviously waiting for the opportunity to strike.
Kirin Beast Ant King!
Not only the Kirin Beast Ant King, but on its left and right sides, two sea beasts were also lurking and following, hiding within them were Ant Kings, Assistant Kings, and tens of thousands of Soldier Ants.
Additionally, two extremely formidable Ant Kings were secretly protecting the Kirin Beast Ant King.
The three large groups of creatures managed to stealthily hide below without a sound.
Meanwhile, the three Butterfly Kings—White Crystal, Jacaranda, and Rainbow Parasol—remained unaware.
"Stop!"
"Below!"
Dragon Cypress urgently warned, lowly shouted, "Let me test it!"
The cloud-mist state giant ant head suddenly halted, suddenly burying downward, diving down, and activated the Divine Mark Ability simultaneously:
Heavenly Frost Remnants Realm!
The wings of the Cloud Mist Giant Ant swept, causing tens of thousands of tiny Flying Ants to surge toward the sea surface.
Bone-chilling cold spread with the sea breeze.
Boundless ice and snow world.
However,
The ability merely lasted an instant before a massive crash shattered the ice layer that made up the ground. The Kirin burst forth from beneath the sea, its form swelling, transforming into a cloud-mist state, inhaling with mouth wide open, devouring the Flying Ants from the sky dry, then condensed into an ice form, shattering the icy illusion with a swing of its massive body.
On the sea surface, broken floating ice undulated with the waves.
Looking again, Dragon Cypress had already retreated to a thousand meters high in the sky.
The three Butterfly Kings—White Crystal, Jacaranda, and Rainbow Parasol—jointly activated their abilities, dense and sticky black rain targeting the sea surface.
The raindrops hit the icy form of the Kirin Beast, producing a heavy clatter, ice shards splintering.
The raindrops activated by the three Butterfly Kings were extraordinary, turning the sea black upon entering, black smoke rising, transforming into colorful butterflies fluttering toward the Kirin Beast.
A chilling cold rose from the Kirin Beast's body, forming a cold current, freezing the black sea water and colorful butterflies.
The Kirin Beast's form changed again, turning into a sea beast, lifted its head high towards the sky, suddenly leaping upward, spraying a large cloud of blue mist into the air.
The descending heavy raindrops were corroded and destroyed by the blue mist.
The Kirin Beast leapt upward, transforming mid-air into a cloud-mist form, pouncing towards Jacaranda Butterfly King.
At the same time, the two sea beasts hidden on the sides soared into the air, respectively pouncing towards White Crystal and Rainbow Parasol Butterfly Kings.
"Retreat——"
Dragon Cypress left a word behind, wind wings boosting a rapid flight, Thunder System 'Flash Strike' ability repeatedly activated, azure thunder flashing, instantly turning into a blue dot, disappearing into the darkness.
"..."
"The ant runs so fast!"
"Retreat!"
The three Butterfly Kings displayed agile movements, evading up, down, and sideways, fluttering southward to escape.
…
…
Late at night.
Ten thousand meters high near the coastline.
Dragon Cypress stood above dense clouds, activating the Scorching Ability, scanning and observing the distant sea area.
Did not wait long,
The three Butterfly Kings—White Crystal, Jacaranda, and Rainbow Parasol—appeared in view, simultaneously sensing being spied upon, reversed their senses to lock onto Dragon Cypress's approximate position, accelerating to unite.
"Dragon Cypress Ant King?"
"That's enough."
"Is this enough?"
"Thanks to the Kirin Beast Ant King's earnest lessons. Next time we meet, I'll definitely give it a big surprise."
"..."
The butterflies choked quietly.
Not an entirely serious ant.
The White Crystal Butterfly King seriously asked, "Dragon Cypress Ant King, what next? Shall I take you to Yu'e Island, to visit two leaders—Azure Mica Ant King and Bloodvine Bee King?"
Dragon Cypress hesitated for a moment, swaying its tentacles, said, "Next time. Snow Velvet Spider King is still waiting at Smoke Blue Mountain. It's been delayed for nearly a month, we can't delay the richest person's earnings."
"..."
"Okay——"
The White Crystal Butterfly King said, "I'll take you back to Smoke Blue Mountain."
