Chapter 3547: ???? Azure Ghost Origin, Ghost Ant Empress
en parts of spiritual energy forming around it, like a true and illusory ring surrounding the illusionary realm. The Wu Xiang Xuan Fire transformed into a fire man at this time, the flames surging, f...All around was a ghastly, eerie atmosphere. The void of the ghost realm emitted a terrifying gray aura, and the wilderness beyond the ghost city lay in deathly silence.
From time to time, a few scattered skeletons crawled across the wasteland. A few sluggish, corpse-scented antelopes grazed near a river, bowing their heads to drink from its edge. Suddenly, a giant carrion crocodile surged up from within, seizing an antelope and dragging it into the river. Moments later, the antelope's body in the river was torn apart.
As the corpse crocodile was devouring the antelope's body, a chaotic flurry of panicked cries surged from afar. It seemed like a pack of beasts had encountered something terrifying and were desperately fleeing this way. The humanoid figures, skull-faced beings, ghostly carvings in mid-air, emerald-eyed lion griffins, three-eyed swamp spiders, camel lions, blood-footed corpse oxen, and many other creatures all fled in terror, fearing that they would be the slightest bit slower.

Even ghosts have an instinct to avoid death. Following the direction these ghosts fled, a buzzing sound like that of mosquitoes came, and countless black ants the size of fists swarmed in from the air.

Those Yin spirits that were a little slower to escape were engulfed by the swarm of ants in an instant. The ghosts that were caught by the ants then became skeletons, but these skeletons were noticeably different from those of the skull ghosts.
Soon, several more skeletons were entangled by the black ants. There wasn't much visible change, but those with high cultivation would see wisps of black qi being sucked out from within the skeletons. Afterward, these skeletons ravaged by the ant swarm, which originally appeared robust and sturdy, decayed at a visible speed. After a gust of wind blew through, they turned into dust, scattering in the air, falling to the ground, or drifting into the small river.
A swarm of black ants swarmed across the wasteland, devouring everything in their path. Nothing remained untouched; even the corpse-eating crocodiles that hunted in the Yin River were not spared.
And at this time, dozens of Ghost Clan members were panicked and flying everywhere in the void. A very small number of lucky ones escaped. They disappeared far away in that gray-gray void, but more were swallowed by the swarm of ants.
A ferocious roar, like that of a lion, echoed through the vast emptiness of space.
“Queen ant, you dare to let your colony invade Lioncloud Mountain again Do you really think that with the vast power of this Ghostly Wasteland, no one can stop you”
“The lion is quite furious, but it’s just some squabbling among the younger generations. There are always casualties in these kinds of conflicts, nothing major to be angry about.” A lazy female voice echoed from the depths of darkness where a swarm of ants buzzed.
"There's no need to get angry. If I don't make a move, in just a short time, the entire Lioncloud Ridge will become your ant queen's territory, wouldn't it Since that's the case, let's settle this today." From the depths of the void stepped a robust white-faced lion, with ghostly flames swirling around its body. Wherever it passed, the void and the ground hissed and crackled as they were burned.
The emerald flames surged forward, and as soon as the ants came into contact with them, they screamed madly. Threads of black gas emerged from their bodies to protect themselves, but the black gas emitted by these ordinary ants was ultimately limited. Their bodies began to gradually fade, and finally, beneath those emerald flames, they vanished into nothingness.
A large number of black ants vanished directly under the emerald flames, leaving not a trace. The eerie green flames were even more domineering than the previously formidable ant swarm.
The previous queen ant didn't seem to be affected at all by the casualties of her soldiers. It seemed that these black ants who died weren't considered part of her colony in the same way.
“The Lion King’s divine power is truly amazing. This time, the Queen Ant will surely die at the hands of the Lion King, and the Ghostly Plain will become the Lion King’s territory.” At this moment, a wolf-headed centipede demon emerged from behind a small hillock, seeing the ever-flowing emerald flames sweeping towards the ant swarm opposite, and burst into laughter.
“That’s right, this queen ant is unruly. Ever since she arrived in the Ghost Origin, she has allowed her ant colony to wreak havoc everywhere. We haven’t figured out how powerful her magic is yet, but the ant colony is truly domineering. If it weren’t for the Lion King’s ghostly flame reaching its peak, we might not be able to control this ant swarm.”
Another skeleton with a killing character on its forehead waved the white bone wolf tooth club in its hand. Seeing that the ant swarm was gradually being suppressed, it was also extremely excited.
"An outsider who wants to stir up trouble in our Ghostly Origin is truly courting death."

"Lion King, exterminate the ant horde and kill this queen! From now on, all the ghosts in the Azure Ghost Plain will pledge allegiance to the Lion King!" Several ghosts cheered loudly, encouraging the white-faced lion king.
"You bunch of scoundrels, don't try to egg me on! Get those ghost soldiers behind you away from me. Trying to take advantage of the situation, huh If you anger me, I'll burn all your ghost soldiers to ashes!" The white-furred lion king, who was currently suppressing a swarm of ants, suddenly turned his head and roared at the wolf-headed centipede ghost creature and its companions.
“Wherever the Lion King says, we shall always obey. Without the Lion King's approval, how dare we lay a finger on the Ghostly Origin.” The wolf-headed, centipede-bodied ghost creature, several skeletons brandishing white bone wolf-tooth clubs, all awkwardly chuckled. One reached back and made a gesture to forbid movement. Behind him, the seemingly endless army of ghosts each let out an unwilling growl and halted their advance.
Meanwhile, another legion of Ghost Lions charged ferociously forward, roaring at the skeletons. The wolf-headed centipede demons intimidated these ghostly troops, completely crushing their momentum.
The white-faced lion king's eyes flashed with a hint of disdain as he witnessed this scene. It seemed that his own army of ghost lions was still the most elite. These few factions, whose strength was insufficient and who harbored ulterior motives, actually wanted him to be their vanguard, then reap the rewards behind. What a delusional fantasy!
“The centipede wolf, the ghoul corpse, this white-faced lion king's army of ghost lions is indeed formidable. If we each act on our own, even if we drive away the ant queen, these weak lightning pools that have recently appeared in the Ghostly Origin are unlikely to fall into our hands.” The skeletal leader holding a bone wolf fang staff whispered to the two companions beside him.
"Though the White-faced Lion King's cultivation is indeed higher than many of us, it's not up to him alone to decide what happens in Ghost Origin. If several families join forces, even though Lion Cloud Ridge is a dominant force, it's not invincible." The one beside him, as black as charcoal with horns on his forehead and an extra eye in the center, let out a low chuckle.
“That's exactly what I thought. That turtle, Mengxie, was too greedy. The Canggui appeared in the weak thunder pool and wanted to hoard it all for himself. If he had informed us earlier, we could have teamed up to stop that ant queen from wherever she came from. We could have shared the benefits more easily and avoided so much trouble.” Wulan scolded.
