Ten days later.
Inside a large cave.
Lu Changsheng looked at the hundred Variant Blazing Fire Ants that had hatched, feeling quite delighted.
Sure enough, once the environment had a suitable temperature, the ant eggs hatched quickly.
The ant eggs catalyzed by Source Energy Points were clearly much stronger after hatching.
Each one was far larger than an ordinary Blazing Fire Ant.
Their strength had likely reached the peak of the first tier, not far from the second tier.

Even ants could bite an elephant to death. If several third-tier Exotic Beasts joined forces with a huge number of Fire Armored Scorpions to besiege him, he could only avoid their sharp edge for now.
Now that the Variant Blazing Fire Ants had hatched, he planned to first sweep through the outskirts.
Then, Lu Changsheng led the massive ant colony toward the central region.
Before long, Lu Changsheng arrived inside the crater, where the surrounding air grew ever more scorching.
He led the ant colony forward, slowly exploring.
Before long, they found something.
A huge Fire Crystal was embedded in the rock wall ahead.

They had only just begun exploring and had already made gains, greatly boosting his confidence.
As long as he stripped the volcano clean of its resources, his strength would be able to rise by another level.
With that thought, he became full of drive.
Lu Changsheng led the
