Chapter 2471 - Controlling the Queen Ant

“No, this is not just a collapse. This is… A black hole?”

Han Fei felt very strange at that time. This thought suddenly appeared in his mind, because he saw a pure black circle appear in the center of the ripple vortex.

Bang!

Although Han Fei didn’t know what happened down below, he guessed that the Star Fist Technique and the star core of this star must have had some unknown reaction, resulting in the current commotion.

Although this suction force was terrifying, it couldn’t stop Han Fei. However, when Han Fei was about to escape, he saw hundreds of Star Sea Blue Fire Ants exploding in the black hole vortex.

Then, the black hole was obliterating at a visible speed, and the suction force was suddenly loosened.

In the blink of an eye, Han Fei had shattered the worm nest star. Seeing that the crisis was resolved, he turned around and rushed up.

Information about the queen ant popped up in Han Fei’s eyes.

Star Sea Metal-Eating Queen Ant

This is a gregarious creature that lives in the Scattered Stars Sea, the Star Sea Metal-Eating Queen Ant. By manipulating the Metal-Eating Ants, it can find ownerless stars, feed itself on the metal veins in the star fragments, and absorb the power and vitality of the stars as a condition for growth. The Metal-Eating Queen Ant is the ruler and controller of its species and has extremely high intelligence.

The strength of a queen ant is related to the strength of its race. Only its soul power is strong.

Han Fei was not surprised at all to see the information of the Metal-Eating Queen Ant. In fact, he had already expected it.

As for this queen ant, when she saw Han Fei, she immediately unleashed a soul tide.

For a moment, Han Fei felt that he was caught in endless undulating waves.

However, Han Fei’s soul power was not low, or even abnormally powerful, so he immediately came back to his senses and deprived the soul attack.

In the next moment, Han Fei deprived the queen ant of its shield.

If it were in the past, it would be quite difficult for Han Fei to deprive the consciousness, power, and soul of a perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator, because he couldn’t bear the backlash at all.

But now, Han Fei was growing every day and could be said to be getting more and more powerful. At this moment, facing a perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator, he was no longer as weak as before.

When he broke the opponent’s glittering shield, Han Fei punched through most of the queen ant’s body and said, “Tell your lackeys not to come over, or I will kill you.”

Han Fei didn’t doubt that this queen ant could understand him. If she couldn’t even understand this, how could she be a queen ant?

Sure enough, the queen ant immediately responded, “What do you want to do? Although this star is broken, it’s surrounded by more than 300,000 Metal-eating Ants in total. So, in case both sides are injured, we can stop fighting.”

“Stop fighting? Heh! I can stop fighting, but I want you to submit to me.”

“Impossible!”

However, in the next moment, the Star Sea Metal-Eating Queen Ant found that her power disappeared into thin air, and the man standing on her body exuded a terrifying pressure that overflowed from his body.

Han Fei said, “You should have sensed my strength. I can kill you at any time. Although your soul is not weak, it can’t hurt me at all. So, tell me the reason why you don’t submit to me.”

The queen ant: “I’m not the only Star Sea Metal-Eating Queen Ant. There are more than 300,000 of us. If I die, you won’t be able to move an inch.”

“Hahaha!”

Han Fei grinned. “Do you think you can fool me? If I can take you down, I can take the other queen ants. Do you think you can stop me? Are you faster than me? Or are you stronger than me? Or is your soul level higher than mine? Humph, I’ll give you a choice. Submit to me, and I won’t kill you. In three years at most, I can let you go. Otherwise, you have to die now.”

With that, golden light flashed on Han Fei’s double axes, and Han Fei had already raised his hand and was about to slash.

“Okay!”

When Han Fei’s axe light was about to hit the queen ant’s head, the latter finally compromised, because she sensed that Han Fei had no intention of stopping at all and was really going to kill her.

If she had shouted a bit more slowly just now, the axe would have hit her. Although the queen ant didn’t think this person could kill her, she had seen his strength! She didn’t dare to take the risk.

The queen ant said, “How can I believe you?”

Han Fei said, “You can only trust me. If you can help me block some enemies, then you may be qualified to be my real subordinate. This is an honor that no one else has ever had.”

Anyway, if the queen ant could be controlled, it was fine, and if not, he would find the next one. Anyway, there were too many creatures in the Scattered Stars Sea. He didn’t care if the queen ant helped him or not.

The queen ant was silent for a moment, but the surrounding Star Sea Metal-eating Ants didn’t attack but simply surrounded this place. As for the shaking of the shattered stars, they had already disappeared with the black hole.

Finally, the queen ant said, “Okay, but if your enemy is too strong… for example, as strong as you, then there’s nothing we can do. The area occupied by the Star Sea Metal-eating Ants isn’t large. Besides, I’m not the only queen ant.”

Han Fei suddenly said, “You must have encountered a lot of other races forcibly crossing this area of the Sea of Stars before, right? What did you do back then?”

The queen said, “There are indeed a lot of them, but we can’t kill many of them. Those people are not weak. Usually only when multiple queen ants join forces can we take down one person.”

Han Fei’s heart did a flip. “What’s the benefit of taking them down?”

The queen ant said: “We could swallow them, use their power to expand our race, or give birth to an insect heritage.”

Han Fei asked, “What heritage?”

The queen ant fell into a silence, and Han Fei asked, “A new queen ant will be born?”

Seeing that the queen ant didn’t answer, Han Fei said, “It’s not hard to guess. Otherwise, it’s simply a fool’s dream for your race to occupy a place in the Shattered Star Sea. So, cultivators are nutrients for you?”

“Yes!”

Upon hearing the queen ant’s words, Han Fei had no pity for the dead. This was the way to survive in the Scattered Stars Sea.

Han Fei asked, “How many queen ants are attacking me? At this moment, there should be a lot of Star Sea Metal-eating Ants rushing here, right?”

Pondering for a moment, the queen ant said, “Seven.”

Han Fei’s heart did a flip. Assuming that each queen ant had more than 300,000 subordinates, wouldn’t there be more than 2 million Star Sea Metal-eating Ants with the seven queen ants?

This number made his scalp tingle just thinking about it. This was just a damn small race in the Shattered Star Sea.

Furthermore, this was only the seven queen ants besieging him. There was no telling how many more there would be.

However, in the next moment, the queen ant said, “If you can help me swallow the other queen ants and control their power, I can acknowledge you as my master.”

Han Fei chuckled. This queen ant was indeed smart. She knew that she couldn’t escape, so she wanted benefits.

However, Han Fei smiled weirdly. “Aren’t you queen ants working together to deal with external enemies? Why do you have to fight each other?”

“Because I will inevitably be attacked by all the queen ants if you control me. When that happens, neither of us can escape. So, if you want to ambush your enemy through me, you can’t do it without killing the other queen ants.”

Han Fei asked, “What if you become stronger and prove your Dao after swallowing the power of other queen ants?”

“Do you think I dare to prove my Dao?”

Han Fei thought for a moment and grinned. “If you stay here after proving your Dao, you certainly won’t dare to. However, this doesn’t mean that you can’t prove your Dao. Since you’ve turned this matter into an act of mutual help, I’ll give you a chance. Give me your soul and essence blood and swear a blood oath. I’ll consider helping you kill all the queen ants in this area. Even if you prove your Dao in three years, I won’t do anything to you. You can go wherever you need to go.”

The queen asked, “Are you really not going to do anything to me?”

Han Fei smiled and said, “I also swear a blood oath. I’m not interested in your race. I’m only interested in my enemy. If we meet again in the depths of the Sea of Stars, it won’t be bad to continue our master-servant relationship.”

Han Fei felt that it was a good decision. In fact, he really didn’t want to kill the queen ant and the others. The reason why he killed so many Star Sea Metal-eating Ants before was just for the materials. It was just that the appearance of the Star Sea Blue Fire Ants made him want to rush into the queen ant’s nest.

Now, since there was such a race to use, why not use it? Wouldn’t it be great to have an ant army helping him?

Han Fei thought to himself.

The queen ant, on the other hand, had another idea. If Han Fei could really conquer so many queen ants, why not work for him?

The others didn’t know, but they knew that the Scattered Star River was just a path of trial. There were many strong masters who could kill them at will, but these strong masters wouldn’t attack them. They were just a trial for people like Han Fei.

They were just obstacles on the way of the trial for Han Fei and the others. They were like stepping stones. In the past, there was no shortage of queen ants who wanted to escape with their ants. In fact, all the queen ants had once tried to escape with their ants, but in the end, they were killed or exiled by a Monarch, and they never returned.

Therefore, if Han Fei could kill the other queen ants, she would be the only one left of this race. Her strength would soar. As long as Han Fei didn’t kill her, she would most likely be driven to the depths of the Scattered Stars Sea by a mysterious expert and then continue to reproduce, give birth to her own race, and continue to serve as a stepping stone for others.

However, at that time, she was a powerful stepping stone, unlike today, who was easily defeated without even having the strength to resist.
