xīn zhōng rú cǐ xiǎng zhe ， hóng fā lǎo zhě rèn wéi zì zhǐ suǒ liào méi cuò ， duì lín xuān shèn zhī zuò qǐ lái jǐ fēn lián mǐn zhī sè ， bú shì me ， táng táng lí hé qī xiū xiān zhě ， suī rán fēng guāng wú fǎ yǔ dòng xuán lǎo guài xiàng bǐ ， dàn yě shì duò duò jiǎo sì fāng zhèn chàn de rén wù ， zú yǐ shuō dé shàng shì yī fāng bà zhǔ ， jū rán hùn dào rú cǐ hán chěn de dì bù ， lián tā yě zhe shí yǒu xiē kě lián lín xuān le 。
心中如此想着，红发老者认为自只所料没错，对林轩甚之坐起来几分怜悯之色，不是么，堂堂离合期修仙者，虽然风光无法与洞玄老怪相比，但也是跺跺脚四方震颤的人物，足以说得上是一方霸主，居然混到如此寒碜的地步，连他也着实有些可怜林轩了。
With these thoughts in mind, the red-haired elder believed his assumptions were correct and felt a touch of pity for Lin Xuan. After all, a Separation-Union Realm cultivator, even if not as glorious as the Cave Profound monster, was still someone who could shake the four directions with a single step. He was certainly a dominant figure. To end up in such a shabby state, even the elder felt somewhat pitiful for Lin Xuan.
“ dào yǒu yǐ qián shí lì huò xǔ bù ruò ， dàn rú jīn zhǐ shèng xià yí gè yuán yīng zhī tǐ ， shú qiáng shú ruò nǐ nán dào zhēn bù qīng chǔ ， yòu hé bì shǎ hū hū de yǐ luǎn jī shí ne ， shí xiàng de lí kāi zhè lǐ ， ràng chū yǎn qián fēng shuǐ bǎo dì ， lǎo fū bú huì wéi nán nǐ 。”
“道友以前实力或许不弱，但如今只剩下一个元婴之体，孰强孰弱你难道真不清楚，又何必傻乎乎的以卵击石呢，识相的离开这里，让出眼前风水宝地，老夫不会为难你。”
"Friend, your strength may have been formidable before, but now you're nothing more than an infant spirit body. Who is stronger and who is weaker—don't you know? Why not be wise and leave this place? Give up this prime location, and I won't make things difficult for you."
shuō zhè huà de shí hòu , lǎo zhě yī fù bēi tiān mǐn rén zhī sè ， fǎng fú zì jǐ duō me de shàn liáng cí hé 。
说这话的时候,老者一副悲天悯人之色，仿佛自己多么的善良慈和。
As he spoke, the elder had a look of pity on his face, as if he were a kind and benevolent person.
“ rú guǒ lín mǒu bù ne ？” yuán yīng lěng lěng de shuō 。
“如果林某不呢？”元婴冷冷的说。
"If Lin某 does not?" The infant spirit replied coldly.
“ bù ，…, lǎo zhě de yǎn shén yī xià zi biàn le ， dài shàng jǐ fēn xiōng lì zhī sè ：“ bù zhī sǐ huó ， lǎo fū yī huì er jiāng nǐ chōu hún liàn pò ？”
“不，…,老者的眼神一下子变了，带上几分凶厉之色：“不知死活，老夫一会儿将你抽魂炼魄？”
"No,…" The elder's gaze suddenly changed, taking on a fierce expression. "If you dare to defy death, I will extract your soul and refine it."
duì huà dào zhè lǐ jié shù ， zài shuō xià qù sī háo yì yì yě wú ， xiū xiān zhě ， guī gēn jié dǐ ， hái shì yào shǒu dǐ xià jiàn zhēn zhāng de 。
对话到这里结束，再说下去丝毫意义也无，修仙者，归根结底，还是要手底下见真章的。
The conversation ended here; continuing would be meaningless. In the end, who was stronger was decided by their fists.
shéi de quán tou dà ， shuí jiù shì lǎo dà ， ruò ròu qiáng shí ， xiū xiān zhě shù bǎi wàn nián lái ， yí xiàng rú cǐ 。
谁的拳头大，谁就是老大，弱肉强食，修仙者数百万年来，一向如此。
Whoever had the bigger fist was the boss—survival of the fittest. Cultivators had always followed this rule for millions of years.
“ jì rán nǐ yào zhǎo sǐ ， lǎo fū jiù chéng quán nǐ 。”
“既然你要找死，老夫就成全你。”
"Since you want to die, I will make it happen."
lǎo zhě kě méi yǒu jiāng duì miàn de yuán yīng fàng zài yǎn lǐ ， shēn shǒu yī pāi ， jiù jiāng yī jiàn bǎo wù qǔ le chū lái ， rán ér lín xuān dòng shǒu gèng kuài ， yǐ tā de xìng gé ， jì rán gǎn ràng dì èr yuán yīng dān dú yù dí ， nà kěn dìng shì yǒu shí zú bǎ wò dì 。
老者可没有将对面的元婴放在眼里，伸手一拍，就将一件宝物取了出来，然而林轩动手更快，以他的性格，既然敢让第二元婴单独御敌，那肯定是有十足把握地。
The elder did not regard the infant spirit as anything to be taken lightly. He reached out and retrieved a treasure item with a flick of his hand. However, Lin Xuan acted faster. Given his character, he had enough confidence in letting the second infant spirit face the enemy alone.
wǔ shí nián le ， lín xuān yì zhí yòng wàn hún tǎ duì xuè huǒ yǐ sì yǎng cuī shú ， jī hū yī tiān dōu méi yǒu là xià guò ， rú jīn shì shí hòu zhǎn shì yī xià chéng guǒ 。
五十年了，林轩一直用万魂塔对血火蚁饲养催熟，几乎一天都没有落下过，如今是时候展示一下成果。
For fifty years, Lin Xuan had been using the Ten Thousand Souls Tower to breed and accelerate the growth of blood fire ants, never missing a day. It was time to show off the results.
mán huāng dú chóng ， běn jiù bú shì chí zhōng yú lóng zhōng niǎo ， ér shì néng lìng tiān dì yě wèi zhī biàn sè ， pái míng qián liè de mán huāng qí chóng ， rú guǒ sì yǎng dào yí dìng de guī mó ， bìng wán quán cuī shú ， shèn zhì bù bǐ qiáng dà de zhēn líng xùn sè 。
蛮荒毒虫，本就不是池中鱼笼中鸟，而是能令天地也为之变色，排名前列的蛮荒奇虫，如果饲养到一定的规模，并完全催熟，甚至不比强大的真灵逊色。
Wild toxic insects were not confined creatures; they could change the very color of heaven and earth. If properly bred and fully matured, even these fierce primitive bugs did not fall short of powerful true spirits.
dāng rán , xuè huǒ yǐ shì bù kě néng de dàn jǐn jǐn shì duì fù yǎn qián de zhè xiē jiā huo ， lín xuān hái shì yǒu bǎ wò 。
当然,血火蚁是不可能的但仅仅是对付眼前的这些家伙，林轩还是有把握。
Of course, it wasn't possible for blood fire ants, but dealing with the current batch was within Lin Xuan's grasp.
èr huà bù shuō ， yòu shǒu tái qǐ ， yī dào fǎ jué xiàng qián dǎ le chū qù ， wàn hún tǎ yī dǒu ， líng guāng dà zuò ， dì yī céng dǎ kāi ， yī tuán cì mù bái guāng yìng rù yǎn lián 。
二话不说，右手抬起，一道法诀像前打了出去，万魂塔一抖，灵光大做，第一层打开，一团刺目白光映入眼帘。
Without a word, he raised his right hand and shot out a spell. The Ten Thousand Souls Tower shook, emitting a brilliant light. The first layer opened, revealing a blinding white light.
suí hòu nà bái guāng huà wèi le yí gè xuán wō ， wēng míng shēng dà zuò yī duǒ xuè hóng sè de chóng yún cóng lǐ miàn fēi chū lái le 。
随后那白光化为了一个漩涡，嗡鸣声大做一朵血红色的虫云从里面飞出来了。
The white light transformed into a vortex, and a blood-red insect cloud emerged from it.
zǐ xì kàn lái ， nà chóng yún pū tiān gài dì ， nǎi shì yóu yī zhī zhǐ zhǐ jiǎ gài dà xiǎo de fēi chóng zǔ chéng dì ， rú xuè sè de làng xiāng yì bān xiàng zhe duì shǒu fēng yōng ér lái 。
仔细看来，那虫云铺天盖地，乃是由一只只指甲盖大小的飞虫组成地，如血色的浪湘一般向着对手蜂拥而来。
Upon closer inspection, the insect cloud covered the sky, composed of tiny flying insects about the size of fingernails, like a crimson wave rushing towards the opponent.
“ zhè shì ……”
“这是……”
"What is this…?"
lǎo zhě dà jīng shī sè yuán běn hái zài chī xiào lín xuān ná chū lā jī bǎo wù de yuán yīng xiū shì men yě jīng dāi le ， zài wàn hún tǎ dǎ kāi de yī shùn jiān ， páng bó de wēi yā ， fēng yōng ér lái ， zhè nǎ lǐ shì shén me lā jī bǎo wù fēn míng shì zì jǐ zhè xiē rén yǒu yǎn wú zhū 。
老者大惊失色原本还在嗤笑林轩拿出垃圾宝物的元婴修士们也惊呆了，在万魂塔打开的一瞬间，磅礴的威压，蜂拥而来，这哪里是什么垃圾宝物分明是自己这些人有眼无珠。
The elder was shocked. The infant spirit cultivators who had been mocking Lin Xuan's worthless treasure were also stunned. As soon as the Ten Thousand Souls Tower opened, overwhelming pressure surged forth. This wasn't some trash treasure; they had simply underestimated their own eyes.
suī rán bù néng què dìng zhè tǎ shì shén me ， dàn rú cǐ děng jí de bǎo wù ， tā men xiǎn rán hái bù céng yù jiàn guò de 。
虽然不能确定这塔是什么，但如此等级的宝物，他们显然还不曾遇见过的。
Although they couldn't be sure what the tower was, such a high-grade treasure item was something they had never encountered before.
chú le jīng è hái shì jīng è ， zhè ge biàn huà wèi miǎn yě tài chū rén yì liào le ， yī shí zhī jiān cāng huáng shī cuò ， hái méi yǒu xiǎng dào yīng gāi rú hé yìng fù ， nà xuè huǒ yǐ jiù yǐ fēng yōng ér chū 。
除了惊愕还是惊愕，这个变化未免也太出人意料了，一时之间仓惶失措，还没有想到应该如何应付，那血火蚁就已蜂拥而出。
The shock continued, and this change was too unexpected. They were momentarily flustered, not knowing how to respond when the blood fire ants surged out.
yuǎn yuǎn wàng qù nà chóng yún sì hū zhǐ yǒu yī duǒ ， dàn shēng shì què lìng rén chù mù jī hū zhē dǎng zhù le bàn biān tiān mù 。
远远望去那虫云似乎只有一朵，但声势却令人触目几乎遮挡住了半边天幕。
From afar, it seemed like only one insect cloud, but its momentum was so powerful that it almost blocked half of the sky.
“ chóng xiū ！”
“虫修！”
"Insect cultivator!"
zhòng xiū shì dōu àn hū bù hǎo ， zài xiū xiān jiè ， qí chóng sì yǎng kùn nán ， dàn wēi lì què jué dà fēi fán ， yǎn qián zhī chóng ， tā men suī rán bìng bù rèn shí ， dàn guāng shì shù liàng ， yě lìng rén xīn liáng 。
众修士都暗呼不好，在修仙界，奇虫饲养困难，但威力却绝大非凡，眼前之虫，他们虽然并不认识，但光是数量，也令人心凉。
All the cultivators muttered under their breaths, realizing the danger. In the cultivation world, breeding strange insects was difficult, yet their power could be immense. They didn't recognize these insects, but their sheer numbers chilled them to the bone.
hòu huǐ ……………
后悔……………
Regret…..
zì jǐ zhè xiē rén ， zhēn shì bèi zhū yóu méng le xīn ， miàn duì lí hé qī lǎo guài wù ， hái rú cǐ dà yì zuò shén me ？
自己这些人，真是被猪油蒙了心，面对离合期老怪物，还如此大意做什么？
They had been so careless in facing a Separation-Union Realm monster. How could they have been so reckless?
jī hū rén rén dōu shì ào nǎo zhī sè ， bù guò nà hóng fā lǎo zhě què shì fǎn yìng zuì kuài de ， tā jì chū lái de bǎo wù xíng zhuàng qí chí 。
几乎人人都是懊恼之色，不过那红发老者却是反映最快的，他祭出来的宝物形状奇持。
Everyone felt regretful, except for the red-haired elder who reacted quickly. The treasure item he revealed was peculiar in shape—a wheel-like object with sharp points. He pointed it forward, and a brilliant light surged into the insect cloud.
shì yī fǎ sì lún zhuàng de dōng xī ， sì zhōu jiān lì wú ní yī zhǐ xiàng qián diǎn qù ， líng guāng dà zuò ， shā rù le chóng yún zhī zhōng 。
是一法亖轮状的东西，四周尖利无尼一指向前点去，灵光大做，杀入了虫云之中。
The blood fire ants, though individually weak, were scattered and killed. However, the elder did not show any joy.
xuè huǒ yǐ dān gè shí lì bù zhí yī tí ， lí kāi bèi shā dé qī líng bā luò ， dàn lǎo zhě liǎn shàng què méi yǒu lù chū gāo xìng zhī sè 。
血火蚁单个实力不值一提，离开被杀得七零八落，但老者脸上却没有露出高兴之色。
There were just too many of them!
wú tā ， shù liàng tài duō a ！
无他，数量太多啊！
Although they didn't count, Lin Xuan estimated that there were over a million insects before his eyes. The white light from the tower had not closed; more insects continued to pour out.
suī rán méi yǒu qù shù , dàn cū lüè gū jì yǎn qián de mó chóng yě bǎi wàn yǒu yú ， guān jiàn shì ， nà bǎo tǎ shì fàng chū lái de bái guāng bìng wèi guān bì ， hái yǒu yuán yuán bù duàn de mó chóng cóng lǐ miàn fēng yōng chū lái 。
虽然没有去数,但粗略估计眼前的魔虫也百万有余，关键是，那宝塔释放出来的白光并未关闭，还有源源不断的魔虫从里面蜂拥出来。
How many monsters was the other side raising?
yǒu méi yǒu gǎo cuò ， duì fāng jiū jìng yǎng le duō shǎo zhè zhǒng guài wù ？
有没有搞错，对方究竟养了多少这种怪物？
The elder felt cold. He knew well how many locusts it took to kill an elephant. Just looking at the sky, the sheer number gave him a sense of powerlessness.
lǎo zhě yǒu xiē xīn hán le ， mǎ duō yǎo sǐ xiàng de dào lǐ tā bú huì bù qīng chǔ ， kàn zhe nà bèi zhē dǎng zhù de tiān mù ， guāng shì shù liàng jiù lìng rén shēng qǐ yī gǔ wú lì gǎn le 。
老者有些心寒了，蚂多咬死象的道理他不会不清楚，看着那被遮挡住的天幕，光是数量就令人升起一股无力感了。
Other cultivators were in similar states, each summoning their treasures. Some used powerful spells. One bald man was particularly fierce; after reciting some incantations, he sent out a wind dragon that crashed into the ant swarm, causing thousands of blood fire ants to be crushed. A large hole over ten meters wide appeared.
qí tā xiū shì yě chà bu duō ， fēn fēn jì chū zì jǐ de bǎo wù ， yǒu de shǐ yòng dà wēi lì de fǎ shù 。 qí zhōng yī guāng tóu dà hàn yóu qí wēi měng ， zài yī zhèn niàn zhòu zhī hòu ， cóng tā de yī xiù zhōng fēi chū yī gè fēng lóng ， yī tóu zhā rù yǐ qún lǐ miàn ， hōng rán zhà kāi ， dùn shí ， shǔ yǐ wàn jì de xuè huǒ yǐ bèi juǎn rù lǐ miàn ， kě pà de wēi lì ， jiāng zhè xiē qí chóng niǎn wèi le fěn mò ， yí gè zhí jìng shí yú zhàng de dà dòng ， chū xiàn zài yǎn lián lǐ 。
其他修士也差不多，纷纷祭出自己的宝物，有的使用大威力的法术。其中一光头大汉尤其威猛，在一阵念咒之后，从他的衣袖中飞出一各风龙，一头扎入蚁群里面，轰然炸开，顿时，数以万计的血火蚁被卷入里面，可怕的威力，将这些奇虫碾为了粉末，一个直径十余丈的大洞，出现在眼帘里。
The cultivators were elated. These strange insects weren't as difficult to handle as they thought. However, their expressions changed soon after; the buzzing sound filled their ears, and in just a few breaths, the large hole was filled with new insects.
zhòng xiū shì bù yóu de dà xǐ ， kàn lái zhè zhǒng qí chóng ， yě bú shì xiǎng xiàng de nà me nán yǐ yìng fù ， bù guò hěn kuài ， tā men biǎo qíng jiù biàn le ， wēng míng shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， bù guò jǐ xī de gōng fu ， nà dà dòng jiù bèi xīn de mó chóng gěi tián mǎn le 。
众修士不由得大喜，看来这种奇虫，也不是想象的那么难以应付，不过很快，他们表情就变了，嗡鸣声传入耳朵，不过几息的功夫，那大洞就被新的魔虫给填满了。
The number of insects in the sky did not decrease but continued to increase.
tiān kōng zhōng chóng qún de shù liàng ， bù jǐn méi yǒu yīn wèi tā men de gōng jī ruì jiǎn ， fǎn ér hái zài bù duàn de zēng duō 。
天空中虫群的数量，不仅没有因为他们的攻击锐减，反而还在不断的增多。
"Is this real? Who raises so many insects?"
“ yǒu méi yǒu gǎo cuò ， nǎ yǒu rén zhè yàng yǎng chóng de ？”
“有没有搞错，哪有人这样养虫的？”
The cultivators couldn't help but curse loudly. However, their voices were drowned out by the buzzing of the blood fire ants.
zhòng xiū shì rěn bú zhù pò kǒu dà mà le ， rán ér nà shēng yīn tīng qǐ lái ， què miǎo xiǎo dào jí chù ， bèi xuè huǒ yǐ de wēng míng shēng ， gěi yǎn gài le shí zhī **。
众修士忍不住破口大骂了，然而那声音听起来，却渺小到极处，被血火蚁的嗡鸣声，给掩盖了十之**。
Generally, ordinary cultivators could not raise such insects, but Lin Xuan had conditions.
yì bān xiū xiān zhě què shí bù néng zhè yàng yǎng chóng ， dàn lín xuān què shì yǒu tiáo jiàn de 。
一般修仙者确实不能这样养虫，但林轩却是有条件的。
Ten Thousand Souls Tower!
wàn hún tǎ ！
万魂塔！
This auxiliary treasure played a significant role. It could nourish and accelerate the growth of strange insects. All Lin Xuan needed to do was feed the queen ant and inject some earth essence into common stones for newborn blood fire ants to consume before throwing them into the Ten Thousand Souls Tower.
zhè fǔ zhù xíng líng bǎo qǐ dào le jí dà de zuò yòng ， xī běn shēn jiù kě yǐ zī yǎng qí chóng ， jiāng xī men cuī shú ， lín xuān yào zuò de ， jǐn jǐn shì wèi yǎng yǐ hòu ， rán hòu jiāng yī xiē pǔ tōng de shí tou ， guàn zhù tiān dì yuán qì ， gěi gāng chū shēng de xuè huǒ yǐ tūn shì ， rán hòu jiāng xī men rēng jìn wàn hún tǎ lǐ bù guǎn jiù xíng le 。
这辅助型灵宝起到了极大的作用，牺本身就可以滋养奇虫，将牺们催熟，林轩要做的，仅仅是喂养蚁后，然后将一些普通的石头，灌注天地元气，给刚出生的血火蚁吞噬，然后将牺们扔进万魂塔里不管就行了。
The queen ant had already recognized him, so he didn't need to worry about the remaining larvae; they could be controlled directly.
yǐ hòu yǐ jīng rèn zhǔ ， yóu yú xuè mài chuán chéng de yuán gù ， xī shèng xià lái de yòu chóng gēn běn bù yòng guǎn ， jiù kě yǐ zhí jiē cāo kòng 。
蚁后已经认主，由于血脉传承的缘故，牺剩下来的幼虫根本不用管，就可以直接操控。
Raising them was incredibly easy. It required no effort at all.
wèi yǎng qǐ lái nà shì fèn wài de qīng sōng ， gēn běn jiù jiǎn dān yǐ jí ， yì diǎn dōu bú huì fèi shì 。
喂养起来那是分外的轻松，根本就简单以极，一点都不会费事。
Blood fire ants were terrifying in their reproduction. After fifty years of breeding, Lin Xuan had over a hundred queen ants, and the insect swarm reached a frightening number of millions.
xuè huǒ yǐ jiù kě pà de jiù shì fán zhí ， jīng guò wǔ shí nián de sì yǎng , lín xuān yǐ jīng yǒu le bǎi yú zhǐ yǐ hòu ， zhì shǒu chóng qún ， gèng dá dào le qiān wàn de kě pà shù liàng 。
血火蚁就可怕的就是繁殖，经过五十年的饲养,林轩已经有了百余只蚁后，至手虫群，更达到了千万的可怕数量。
Back then, with his powers, facing the formidable wave formed by silver fish birds, he could only run away. Over a million blood fire ants were similarly fearsome. Now, Lin Xuan was merely releasing a small portion of the insects.
dāng nián yǐ tā de shén tōng ， miàn duì yín yú niǎo suǒ xíng chéng de kě pà làng cháo ， wéi yī néng zuò de yě jiù shì táo pǎo ， shàng qiān wàn xuè huǒ yǐ , kě pà chéng dù yě chà bu duō nǎ lǐ ， lín xuān xiàn zài ， bù guò shì fàng chū le yī xiǎo bù fèn chóng qún ér yǐ 。
当年以他的神通，面对银鱼鸟所形成的可怕浪潮，唯一能做的也就是逃跑，上千万血火蚁,可怕程度也差不多哪里，林轩现在，不过是放出了一小部分虫群而已。
"Go!"
“ qù ！”
“去！”
Although it was easy to obtain blood fire ants, Lin Xuan did not stand idly by. He pointed his finger at the enemy.
jǐn guǎn xuè huǒ yǐ dé lái róng yì ， lín xuān yě méi yǒu zhàn zhe ái dǎ de dào lǐ ， yī zhǐ xiàng qián miàn diǎn qù 。
尽管血火蚁得来容易，林轩也没有站着挨打的道理，一指像前面点去。
Driven by their master's command, the insect cloud buzzed louder and surged forward towards the opponent.
dé dào zhǔ rén de qū shǐ ， chóng yún yuè fā de wēng míng shēng dà zuò ， xiàng zhe dí rén fēng yōng ér qù le 。
得到主人的驱使，虫云越发的嗡鸣声大做，像着敌人蜂拥而去了。
The scene could not be described in words. A single locust wasn't terrifying, but a locust plague could change heaven and earth.
nà zhǒng chǎng miàn ， wú fǎ yòng yán yǔ miáo shù ， fán rén dōu qīng chǔ ， yī zhī huáng chóng méi yǒu shén me kě pà ， dàn huáng zāi de shí hòu ， què lìng tiān dì wèi zhī biàn sè 。
那种场面，无法用言语描述，凡人都清楚，一只蝗虫没有什么可怕，但蝗灾的时候，却令天地为之变色。
The insect cloud before them was even more terrifying—its numbers and power far exceeded that of locusts. Even as a Separation-Union Realm cultivator, the red-haired elder dared not face it directly; he retreated backward.
ér yǎn qián de chóng yún , hái yào gèng jiā kě pà dé duō ， shù liàng wēi lì dōu yuǎn fēi huáng chóng kě bǐ ， lián hóng fā lǎo zhě shēn wèi lí hé zhōng qī de xiū xiān zhě ， yě bù gǎn zhí yīng qí fēng ， chōu shēn xiàng hòu tuì qù 。
而眼前的虫云,还要更加可怕得多，数量威力都远非蝗虫可比，连红发老者身为离合中期的修仙者，也不敢直缨其锋，抽身向后退去。

With these thoughts in mind, the red-haired elder believed his assumptions were correct and felt a touch of pity for Lin Xuan. After all, a Separation-Union Realm cultivator, even if not as glorious as the Cave Profound monster, was still someone who could shake the four directions with a single step. He was certainly a dominant figure. To end up in such a shabby state, even the elder felt somewhat pitiful for Lin Xuan.
"Friend, your strength may have been formidable before, but now you're nothing more than an infant spirit body. Who is stronger and who is weaker—don't you know? Why not be wise and leave this place? Give up this prime location, and I won't make things difficult for you."
As he spoke, the elder had a look of pity on his face, as if he were a kind and benevolent person.
"If Lin某 does not?" The infant spirit replied coldly.
"No,…" The elder's gaze suddenly changed, taking on a fierce expression. "If you dare to defy death, I will extract your soul and refine it."
The conversation ended here; continuing would be meaningless. In the end, who was stronger was decided by their fists.
Whoever had the bigger fist was the boss—survival of the fittest. Cultivators had always followed this rule for millions of years.
"Since you want to die, I will make it happen."
The elder did not regard the infant spirit as anything to be taken lightly. He reached out and retrieved a treasure item with a flick of his hand. However, Lin Xuan acted faster. Given his character, he had enough confidence in letting the second infant spirit face the enemy alone.
For fifty years, Lin Xuan had been using the Ten Thousand Souls Tower to breed and accelerate the growth of blood fire ants, never missing a day. It was time to show off the results.

The elder felt cold. He knew well how many locusts it took to kill an elephant. Just looking at the sky, the sheer number gave him a sense of powerlessness.
Other cultivators were in similar states, each summoning their treasures. Some used powerful spells. One bald man was particularly fierce; after reciting some incantations, he sent out a wind dragon that crashed into the ant swarm, causing thousands of blood fire ants to be crushed. A large hole over ten meters wide appeared.
The cultivators were elated. These strange insects weren't as difficult to handle as they thought. However, their expressions changed soon after; the buzzing sound filled their ears, and in just a few breaths, the large hole was filled with new insects.
The number of insects in the sky did not decrease but continued to increase.
"Is this real? Who raises so many insects?"
The cultivators couldn't help but curse loudly. However, their voices were drowned out by the buzzing of the blood fire ants.
Generally, ordinary cultivators could not raise such insects, but Lin Xuan had conditions.
Ten Thousand Souls Tower!
This auxiliary treasure played a significant role. It could nourish and accelerate the growth of strange insects. All Lin Xuan needed to do was feed the queen ant and inject some earth essence into common stones for newborn blood fire ants to consume before throwing them into the Ten Thousand Souls Tower.
The queen ant had already recognized him, so he didn't need to worry about the remaining larvae; they could be controlled directly.
Raising them was incredibly easy. It required no effort at all.
Blood fire ants were terrifying in their reproduction. After fifty years of breeding, Lin Xuan had over a hundred queen ants, and the insect swarm reached a frightening number of millions.
Back then, with his powers, facing the formidable wave formed by silver fish birds, he could only run away. Over a million blood fire ants were similarly fearsome. Now, Lin Xuan was merely releasing a small portion of the insects.
"Go!"
Although it was easy to obtain blood fire ants, Lin Xuan did not stand idly by. He pointed his finger at the enemy.
Driven by their master's command, the insect cloud buzzed louder and surged forward towards the opponent.
The scene could not be described in words. A single locust wasn't terrifying, but a locust plague could change heaven and earth.
The insect cloud before them was even more terrifying—its numbers and power far exceeded that of locusts. Even as a Separation-Union Realm cultivator, the red-haired elder dared not face it directly; he retreated backward.
