The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms

Chapter 606: Chapter 603: Evolution of the Holy Ants_1

He wasn’t completely lying when he said this. In his heart, even without considering the fact that Fu Longyue was targeting him, Yang Chen would never agree to Fu Longyue’s proposal. As the saying goes, one must repay kindness with kindness; Yang Chen knew this simple truth.

Back then, Mù Báishēng supported him wholeheartedly, even when he hadn’t risen to prominence yet. The invitation he received from Mu Bai Sheng was out of genuine appreciation – a kindness he would never forget.

Until he had fully repaid Mu Bai Sheng’s kindness and his current sect, Yuanshan, could no longer support his growing strength, he would not leave it to join any other sect.

However, his thoughts were not something others could understand. Many people accused Yang Chen of being foolish.

“What?”

“Yang Chen actually rejected it!”

“This…!”

“Yang Chen really doesn’t play by the rules, huh? He rejected Master Fu’s invitation and the Black Dragon Sect’s offer just like that. Does this kid even have a brain? Does he not realize that he’s insulting the Black Dragon Sect and making enemies with them?”

“Offending the Black Dragon Sect… heh, this kid is going to have a hard time.”

Everyone thought Yang Chen made a foolish choice.

“I don’t think so. I believe Yang Chen is loyal and values friendship. What is the Black Dragon Sect? It’s the top-ranked sect among our Thirty-six Eastern Counties and a super power. Can you imagine the level of self-control and inner strength needed to resist the temptation of such a super power?”

“This shows that Yang Chen’s character is truly exceptional. Unlike you guys, who keep calling him stupid. Heh, if the geniuses from your families were invited to join the Black Dragon Sect, what would your expressions look like? I bet none of you would be laughing.”

“All these people just talking idly without thinking for themselves!”

As everyone discussed, Fu Longyue also looked at Yang Chen deeply.

He didn’t know the reason for Yang Chen’s rejection.

Did he figure out his intentions… or, as Yang Chen said, was he truly loyal to his sect?

Surprisingly enough, Fu Longyue’s thoughts were quite similar to Yang Chen’s. His original plan was to invite Yang Chen into the Black Dragon Sect, and then kill him. Yang Chen was indeed a talented individual, but a genius who he already planned to eliminate was still going to die, no matter how outstanding.

Because such a genius could no longer be used by him.

“I hope it’s the latter. If this kid could actually discern my intentions, then he’s truly extraordinary,” Fu Longyue murmured to himself.

Then, with composure, he said, “Oh? Yang Chen, my friend, doesn’t forget the kindness of those who have helped him. Your character is truly admirable. I didn’t expect you to have both great talent and character.”

“Senior, you’re giving me too much credit,” Yang Chen replied quickly.

“Haha, not at all. Now, Silver Bell, let these young fellows go back and rest. In three days, the next stage will begin,” Fu Longyue said.

Silver Bell immediately made arrangements for the young geniuses to leave.

“Haha, let’s drink first! To all the seniors here!” Fu Longyue laughed.

…

Yang Chen, like the other geniuses, returned to his residence.

In three days, the final stage would take place – the real test. Accordingly, these three days were given to the geniuses to prepare and rest.

Yang Chen didn’t care about this short time for preparation; what concerned him was Fu Longyue’s attitude.

“Oops,” Yang Chen sighed.

Although he had escaped a catastrophe using the Stone General Array Disk, Fu Longyue would not let him go so easily. If his invitation failed today, he would surely find another way to target him in the future.

With this in mind, Yang Chen shook his head and changed the subject: “Elder Yun Lu, those Holy Ants, have you secretly caught hundreds of them and kept them safe?”

In the Eight Extremities Flowing River Space, Yun Lu kindly said, “Young Master, don’t worry, I have already started cultivating the Holy Ants.”

“Elder Yun Lu, are those Holy Ants really as powerful as you claim, capable of evolving into Sacred Spirit Ants? Why have I never heard of this before?” Yang Chen was utterly puzzled.

He thought his experiences were quite extensive.

Although the Holy Ants were the elite of the Ant Race, they weren’t the most powerful, which is why Yang Chen didn’t pay much attention to them. However, just before he was about to leave the eighth Island of Deadly Fate, Yun Lu had secretly caught several hundred Holy Ants.

She didn’t catch too many and used the Stone General Array Disk’s characteristics to conceal her actions. If she had caught too many, the Black Dragon Sect could have easily noticed.

The reason for catching these Holy Ants was that…

They could evolve into Sacred Spirit Ants!

While the Holy Ants were ordinary, the Sacred Spirit Ants were different.

Sacred Spirit Ants were the undisputed king of the Ant Race. The title “Sacred Spirit” represented their supreme status. Yang Chen knew the significance of these Sacred Spirit Ants. Even just a few hundred of them would be enough for him to accomplish many things. If he had thousands or even tens of thousands of Sacred Spirit Ants…

With proper training, he alone, along with these Sacred Spirit Ants, would be almost as powerful as a super power.

This showed the terror of the Sacred Spirit Ants.

Because of their terrifying power, Yang Chen was surprised by Yun Lu’s words and couldn’t help but feel doubtful.

Yun Lu smiled and said, “Young Master, it’s normal for you to be confused since you’ve never heard about it. Not many people know about the fact that Holy Ants can evolve into Sacred Spirit Ants. If more people knew, with so many Holy Ants, would the Black Dragon Sect remain as just a low-rank super power? The Black Dragon Sect is really not treasure their resources. They have such precious Holy Ants but use them as tests for geniuses. What a waste!”

“So, you’re saying that the conditions for Holy Ants to evolve into Sacred Spirit Ants must be very harsh and few people know about it?” Yang Chen blinked.

It wasn’t strange for the Fishpeople Tribe to know about it.

Because the Fishpeople Tribe possessed a natural understanding of the Myriad Dao, which included the art of controlling insects. Coupled with their awakened bloodline memories, their knowledge and understanding were even greater. For example, they knew about the evolution of Holy Ants into Sacred Spirit Ants, something even the Black Dragon Sect didn’t know.

“Certainly, this is a secret from the Ancient Era. The reason why Sacred Spirit Ants are so rare nowadays is not because they are extinct, but rather because many people don’t know that their evolution comes from Holy Ants,” Yun Lu explained. “As for the conditions for evolution, they are indeed extremely harsh. Each successful evolution would be astronomically difficult!”

“But Young Master, think about it. Even if only two or three of them successfully evolve and reproduce, it’s still worth it.”
