When Jiang Ping woke up, before he could even wash himself, he suddenly sensed a change in the Primordial World.
Opening the Creation Diary to take a look, Jiang Ping was a bit stunned.
"Queen Bersha, who has dominated the world for a million years, is dead? Not from old age, but personally assassinated by her own son, the Ant King."
The scene of the Ant King's birth recorded in the Creation Diary was unprecedented. Even the Sacred Tree Lahil, the world's first and strongest being, had never received such an evaluation.
Without bothering to eat breakfast, Jiang Ping felt compelled to check the situation in the Primordial World. Was the new Ant King truly that ferocious?
The Ant Queen had indeed given him a big surprise.
The Primordial World was currently engulfed in flames, and cries of agony echoed across all continents. As soon as the Ant King was born, he summoned Devouring Ants from all regions to pay homage to him, their natural king.
"To think he's a super warrior personally conceived by the Ancestor, but this is too powerful! It's simply beyond reason!"
An Ant Queen who had come to pay homage trembled.
Whoosh
In an instant, too fast for the naked eye to perceive, Ant King Beo had already decapitated the Ant Queen who spoke.
The Ant King violently swung his right hand, splashing Ant Queen's blood, terrifying the other warriors into trembling.
"Who permitted you to speak? Who permitted you to evaluate this King?"
Billions of Devouring Ants knelt in unison. "King!"
"King!"
They looked at this king, powerful as a deity, with fanatical eyes. The Ant King had easily controlled the entire Ant Tribe through absolute strength.
Such a massive movement by the Devouring Ants could not escape the notice of humans. As early as ancient records, the ancestors had specifically marked the danger of the Devouring Ants.
They were the enemy of all races, the pests of the world, and even the destruction of the ancient era was due to a great war between all races and them.
The great human powerhouses had expected another formidable Ant Queen to be born, but they never anticipated the emergence of such a terrifying Ant King!
According to the dying report of the specially monitoring Wind God Dragon, billions of ants collectively bowed to the central Ant King. His radiance was so powerful that even the Wind God Dragon, thousands of meters high in the sky, could not look directly at him.
And the moment it gazed upon the Ant King, the Wind God Dragon perished! It reported the information through the highest alchemical communicator before its death.
"Heaven is destroying me!"
A white-haired king despaired.
However, the Human Race and all other races would not sit idly by. With the latest communication devices, the strongest kingdom on the original central ancestral land issued a call, and the Human Race and all other races formed the Sacred Primordial Alliance, advancing towards the continent where the Ant King resided!
Thousands of ships competed, ten thousand sails unfurled.
Powerful warships led the strongest warriors towards the Ant Tribe's continent. The sea itself seemed to be parted by the massive fleet.
Along the way, powerful sea beasts occasionally leaped out of the water, escorting the fleet and guiding their direction.
This battle was not just for humans; powerhouses from all races had come to assist, as if the ancient era had returned.
"The last great war caused the Supercontinent to collapse, the sky and earth to crack. The world fell apart and was no longer whole. This time, it will likely be even worse!" an old king of the Pegasus tribe lamented.
This expedition went incredibly smoothly, with calm seas and even favorable winds along the way. The journey, which originally took half a month, was miraculously shortened by half.
The powerhouses of all races marveled, "Even the world is helping us. The Devouring Ants are sure to die this time."
The warriors on the warships were also elated, excited for the upcoming battle. Only the top powerhouses felt a faint unease in their hearts.
If even the world was helping them, how terrifying would their enemy be this time?
The great battle was imminent. Before the warriors of all races arrived, the nearby sea tribes had already gathered basic intelligence.
In the new era, the Devouring Ants had also vigorously developed aquatic ants. The tribes near the Ant Tribe's continent had been almost completely annihilated.
There was no probing from either side; the moment they made contact, the most powerful expansion erupted.
Boom!
Boom!...
Cannons roared, and smoke filled the entire continent. Ten thousand powerful warships surrounded the continent, conducting carpet bombing. Various powerful alchemical explosives were unleashed without regard for cost.
The powerhouses of all races marveled at the Human Race's wealth and extravagance, and the warriors were also impressed by how generous the usually stingy great figures were this time, bringing out their entire capital.
The Devouring Ants also suffered heavy casualties from the bombardment, with countless ants being blown to pieces.
The continent was leveled by 30 meters, yet within minutes, it was filled with the corpses of ants.
The location of the central Ant King was subjected to fierce assault, not only from the fleet's cannons on the sea but also from Wind God Dragons in the sky, carrying pilots who dropped thousands of explosives per minute.
Among them were specially developed armor-piercing bombs designed to kill super-strong individuals.
After a full half-hour of bombardment, the sea itself steamed up, creating a thousand layers of mist. The entire continent was transformed, left scarred and devastated. When the smoke cleared, everyone discovered that the ant population on the continent had not diminished; they continued to emerge from underground without end.
And at the center of everyone's attention, a black figure stood like a god or demon, completely unharmed!
At this moment, in the royal palaces of distant continents, countless powerhouses lost their composure and fell.
Such concentrated artillery fire had not caused him the slightest harm!
"Kill!"
The Devouring Ants began their counterattack. Swarms of flying ants filled the sky, and countless Metal Ants advanced on the ground, with occasional Ant Tribe Heroes appearing sporadically.
The Human Race's elite warriors, along with the strong from myriad races, ascended the continent to engage in a bloody battle with the Devouring Ants!
The battlefield instantly devolved into the most brutal close-quarters combat.
King Beo watched his kin fight with cold eyes, remaining completely still, not showing the slightest desire to intervene.
"To catch the bandit, first catch their king!"
Led by the most powerful Saint-level expert, a special forces team cut through the battlefield, slowly advancing towards the central Ant King.
Meanwhile, Jiang Ping, outside the battle, took out a Jianbing Guozi he had just bought and sat on the sofa, drinking hot soy milk while watching the fight.
"Sigh, the gap is just too immense."
Jiang Ping shook his head. The outcome of this battle was already decided.
In just one day, the Sacred Primordial Alliance expeditionary force, formed under the leadership of the Human Race, was annihilated!
Not a single one of the leading Saint-level experts survived!
Deep within their base camp in the ocean depths, Human Race powerhouses watched the transmitted information with their blood running cold.
The Ant King had barely attacked several times during this battle, but each time he did, it was a devastating, all-consuming strike.
One blow destroyed the leading warship, and one move killed a Saint-level expert.
"This... is this even a living creature? It's practically a divine being's combat power!"
A Grand Scholar trembled.
The others remained silent, a deathly quiet descending as the Ant King's combat power weighed heavily on everyone's hearts.
"What if we surrender? Will the Devouring Ants spare us? We'll accept any cruel or harsh conditions, as long as our race can continue!"
After a long silence, this voice broke through. The Grand Scholar said bitterly:
"The Devouring Ants are bloodthirsty by nature, consuming all things and leaving no room for other beings to survive. Otherwise, the myriad races' alliance wouldn't have been established in the ancient era or now!"
The Grand Scholar paused, then continued, "If the Devouring Ants could accommodate other races, the world would have been ruled by them long ago!"
Everyone present turned pale. Any one of them could have shaken the outside world with a stomp, yet now they felt a future shrouded in darkness, the deepest despair surging into their hearts.
Wuuu
Gradually, sobs echoed in the room, growing louder until even the guards outside were bewildered.
Under the immense crisis of potential extinction, even these important figures could not bear it.
"A race so bloodthirsty, such a terrifying Ant King, why don't the gods descend with heavenly punishment to destroy them!" a Royal Grand Doctor cried out in despair.
When all hope is lost, people begin to place their hopes on the divine.
Unexpectedly, this sentence suddenly ignited a spark in the Grand Scholar's heart. He abruptly raised his head, wiping the tears from his eyes.
"We still have hope! The Ant King's combat power is heaven-defying, and his defense is even more astonishing. If there's any weapon in the world that can harm him, it's only the legendary Spear of Destiny!"
Everyone's eyes lit up. Although the Spear of Destiny had been lost for a long time, this was still a tangible sliver of hope!
Moreover, with the accumulation of generations over the years, especially the posthumous works of Sea King Lu Fei, the location of the Spear of Destiny had been narrowed down.
A king clad in a Divine Dragon imperial robe suddenly stood up. He was King Jingshan of the strongest Sunset Empire in the central ancestral land, and also the leader of the Sacred Primordial Alliance!
Although his combat power was not the strongest in the world, he was the most powerful person in the world!
"Send messages to all major kingdoms and races, use all means to find news of the Spear of Destiny, and urgently requisition all civilian ships to salvage sunken ships at the bottom of the sea!"
He paused and continued, "At the same time, find the long-lost Human Race supreme expert, Gai Feng, and invite him to meet with this king! This is our only hope!"
