"Blood-Devouring Ant Swarm!"
Hearing that name, Lin Ye's heart immediately tightened.
He had once seen a post on the Warrior Forum.
Millions of Blood-devouring Demon Ants had clustered together and slowly worn down an entire twelve-man War General squad alive.
He knew that once surrounded by a large-scale Blood-Devouring Ant Swarm, even a High-tier War General would have no way to escape. Death would be certain!
And now, this swarm of Blood-devouring Demon Ants already numbered over ten thousand.
Watching the Blood-Devouring Ant Swarm draw closer and closer to the three Martial Artists, clearly seeing pairs of savage mandibles, Lin Ye spoke.
"Captain, listen to me. Build a defensive line where you are right now. I'll save them!"
Before Qi Ling and the other captain could reply,
Lin Ye vanished from where he stood with a whoosh.
He moved at incredible speed, racing toward the three fleeing Martial Artists.
With a few leaps, Lin Ye crossed a thousand meters in an instant.
A rustling sound came from all over the mountains and plains.
The three fleeing Martial Artists felt despair well up inside them. They could clearly sense the Blood-devouring Demon Ants getting closer and closer.
Death was within reach...
However, just then,
A swift shadow flashed past them, carrying bursts of whistling wind.
Before they could react, they heard Qi Ling and the others calling out.
"Get over here!"
After saying that, Qi Ling and Yang Xiao glanced at the team members waiting in formation. The two then charged out of the temporary fortifications to rescue the three.
With the speed of High-tier War Generals, they were far faster than the three men, who were nearly at the end of their strength.
Thus, an extremely strange scene appeared in the canyon—two High-tier War Generals carried three Warrior Martial Artists while sprinting ahead of the Beast Tide!
"Momo, when you fire the MG3 Monster Killer, remember to keep the muzzle away from Deputy Captain Lin Ye!"
Yang Xiao gave a special reminder.
"No problem, Captain! Leave it to me!" Momo answered immediately.
When Qi Ling brought the three Martial Artists back, Lin Ye was already less than a hundred meters from the ant swarm.
Facing the densely packed Blood-Devouring Ant Swarm, Lin Ye's expression remained calm. He could already feel the monsters' intense hunger to devour him.
"Then let's fight!"
Lin Ye's eyes gleamed. Holding his Battle Saber in a reverse grip, he charged straight into the ant swarm.
Slaughter was about to begin!
Crack!
Crack!
With a lift of his hand, two sharp flashes of saber light bloomed from Lin Ye's grasp.
Two Blood-devouring Demon Ants, each as large as calves, were instantly beheaded. They let out two squeaks before dying completely.
Then, Lin Ye kicked one of them over.
Its enormous body rolled backward with tremendous force, crushing and injuring numerous Blood-devouring Demon Ants.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lin Ye stomped the ground and launched himself high into the air like a white crane spreading its wings, plunging deeper into the ant swarm.
At the sight of a human intruder, the Blood-Devouring Ant Swarm grew even more frenzied.
Even the Giant Demon Ants that had been pursuing the three Martial Artists from the surrounding area turned and converged on Lin Ye, determined to strangle him to death beneath their layers of encirclement.
Splat!!
Splat!!
Ten Flying Daggers rose automatically from various places on Lin Ye's combat suit, turning into more than ten streaks of light that circled around him.
At such close range, the surrounding Giant Demon Ants had no time to dodge before their bodies were severed.
Like a hemispherical silver barrier, it rapidly expanded outward from Lin Ye, shredding every Giant Demon Ant that tried to approach.
Before long, Giant Demon Ant corpses littered the ground around Lin Ye.
In the distance, the other members of the Lingxiao Squad watched the scene from afar.
"So this is Captain Lin's true strength?" Xiao Qi could not help exclaiming. "His Psychic Power is way too terrifying!"
"It's like Sword Control Technique. Our squad is seriously lucky!"
Nearby, the three Martial Artists who had narrowly escaped death stared blankly at the scene, their mouths hanging wide enough to swallow goose eggs.
The Blood-Devouring Ant Swarm that had just been hunting them had turned into helpless lambs before this young Martial Artist?
"What level of Psychic Master is this brother, exactly?" one of the rescued Martial Artists asked Qi Ling.
"At least... a High-tier War General Level Psychic Master," Qi Ling said somewhat enviously as he returned his Battle Saber to its Saber Case.
The three men: "..."
Where Lin Ye stood, the slaughter was in full swing.
The ant swarm surrounded Lin Ye without end. Vast numbers of ordinary Blood-devouring Demon Ants charged forward fearlessly, only to be torn apart in waves beneath the dense barrage of Flying Daggers.
Meanwhile, the Beast General Level ones quietly hid among the swarm, lowering themselves as they retreated.
Whoosh! Whoosh!!
Wherever his gaze fell, a Flying Dagger shot through like lightning.
Several Red Giant Ants that pounced toward Lin Ye from the rock walls were instantly torn into pieces.
Lin Ye's gaze was cold as he continued leaping through the ant swarm, leaving broken limbs and mangled corpses in his wake.
Every rise and fall of his body took the lives of several Giant Demon Ants with the Battle Saber in his hand, as easily as chopping vegetables.
Even an Intermediate Beast General would either die or be heavily injured if it took one casual saber strike from a High-tier War General like him.
Let alone these Giant Demon Ants that were at most Beast Soldier Level. The entire swarm was completely suppressed beneath Lin Ye's blade.
Boom!!
The tremendous impact of his landing crushed a Blood-devouring Demon Ant into a bloody pulp.
Borrowing the force, Lin Ye sprang into the air again and charged toward several larger Giant Demon Ants.
Swish! Swish! Swish!!
Sharp saber light danced along with his hands. With his mind split in two, his control over the ten Flying Daggers grew increasingly skilled.
At this moment, Lin Ye had become like a meat grinder, continuously harvesting the Blood-Devouring Ant Swarm around him.
The more joyfully they had hunted Martial Artists before, the more miserably they were now being slaughtered by Lin Ye.
Lin Ye would never show mercy toward monsters.
His immense Psychic Power spread outward, covering a range of seventy to eighty meters and taking in the condition of most of the ant swarm.
"Among so many Blood-devouring Demon Ants, there are only around forty Beast Soldier Level ones... Oh? There's even a Primary Beast General trying to escape?"
A grim smile spread across Lin Ye's lips, and he immediately shot toward that Beast General.
Lin Ye's movement made the Primary Beast General Blood-devouring Demon Ant shudder all over. It then spread its six legs and fled wildly along the cliff wall.
"Found you! Think you can escape?" Killing intent surged in Lin Ye's heart.
Climbing along the cliff, Lin Ye steadily closed the distance between himself and the Beast General.
As he erupted at full speed, his advantage in speed, far beyond that of a High-tier War General, was fully displayed.
Forget a Primary Beast General—it would not escape even if it were two levels stronger.
Buzz buzz!!
Sensing the icy killing intent behind it, the Ant Queen, whose intelligence was not low, panicked and moved its six legs at high speed.
A special ripple came from the Beast General Level Ant Queen's mouth, and the ant swarm below instantly went mad.
The Ant Queen was under attack. They could not simply stand by and watch it die.
In the end, it only meant that even more corpses piled up around Lin Ye.
Splat!
With just one slash, Lin Ye pierced through the Beast General Giant Demon Ant's head and killed it in a single blow.
After killing the Beast General Level Giant Demon Ant, Lin Ye looked at the tens of thousands of Giant Demon Ants remaining below, and blazing flames ignited in his eyes once more.
Around him, ten Flying Daggers flew in circles with him at the center, severing dozens of Blood-devouring Demon Ants in half almost every instant.
Lin Ye was incredibly fast and light as a feather. Wherever his figure passed, the Blood-Devouring Ant Swarm suffered devastating casualties.
In just over ten seconds, several thousand Blood-devouring Demon Ants were killed by Lin Ye. His killing speed was worthy of being called a monster-harvesting machine.
At that moment, Lin Ye also experienced the power of Psychic Power.
Under the control of his thoughts, he could control the ten Flying Daggers and slaughter enemies with almost no effort.
Lin Ye even felt that he could control more Flying Daggers...
Chaos quickly spread through the ant swarm as well...
Rat-a-tat-tat!!!
As a series of machine-gun bursts rang out, the Blood-devouring Demon Ants fell to the ground in swaths.
At the same time,
The Lingxiao Squad in the distance charged madly toward Lin Ye.
"Captain Lin, we're here too!!" Xiao Qi rushed at the front, his face beaming as though he had just been paid.
Behind him, Qi Ling, Yang Xiao, and the other War General Martial Artists were all brimming with fighting spirit as they charged toward the now-chaotic Blood-Devouring Ant Swarm.
Even the three Martial Artists who had been hunted joined in, beginning their revenge against the Blood-Devouring Ant Swarm...
