Hearing Wan Shitong's refusal again, Chen Ang looked up at him and said seriously: "My master once told me that there are many red ants around the Fire Red Flower. These red ants are extremely poisonous and very difficult to detect. Those who are crawled over by the poisonous ants only feel itchy on their skin at first, but as time passes, within half an incense stick of time, the skin will ulcerate until all the flesh and bones rot."

As soon as Chen Ang's words fell, Wan Shitong felt his heart skip a beat.

Hurriedly stepping forward, he quickly handed his foot to him.

"Boss, please help me check; just now I didn't feel that itchy, but after you finished speaking, I felt it was itchier than ever. Please help me check if I was bitten by a poisonous ant!"

"You take off your shoes first, and I'll help you check."

Without any hesitation, Wan Shitong took off his shoes and socks skillfully and handed his foot to Chen Ang again.

After letting him step on a stone, Chen Ang checked it carefully.

Seeing that there were no wounds on his feet, he breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

"There are no wounds from poisonous ants on your feet; let's check your shoes and socks."

"Boss, did you see clearly? Was I really not bitten?" Wan Shitong asked cautiously.

"Really, I checked carefully, there are no wounds, you can put your heart in your stomach."

Hearing Chen Ang's words, Wan Shitong breathed a sigh of relief.

Taking Wan Shitong's shoes and socks, Chen Ang shook them a few times seriously.

Following his movements, a leaf slowly fell out.

Seeing that leaf, Chen Ang couldn't help but laugh or cry.

No wonder Wan Shitong kept saying his feet were itchy; there was a leaf in his shoe, could it not be itchy?

Holding the leaf that had a smell in front of him, Chen Ang said with a laugh or cry: "Do you see the reason for your itchy feet? A leaf fell inside and you didn't even know?"

Learning that his itchy feet were because of a leaf, Wan Shitong scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Boss, my attention has always been on the surroundings, I didn't pay attention to myself at all, I didn't even know when this leaf got in."

Looking down, Chen Ang said thoughtfully: "Your shoe barrel is indeed a bit wide; tie it with a rope later, otherwise it will be bad if an Ant Beast gets in."

Hearing his words, Wan Shitong nodded repeatedly.

After putting on his shoes and socks, he directly picked up two ropes and tied the upper ends.

After making sure nothing else would get in, he breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

After dealing with all these things, the two's physical strength recovered as before, and after packing their things, they continued forward.

As the road gradually widened, the two faintly smelled a stench.

As they kept walking, the smell became stronger and stronger.

Unable to help but reach out to cover his mouth and nose, Wan Shitong frowned and asked: "Boss, what is that smell, so stinky?"

"It should be the smell of the Fire Red Flower."

"What? The smell of the Fire Red Flower is stinky?"

"Hmm, it's stinky, and the stronger the smell, the closer we are to the Fire Red Flower. Now it seems that we should be arriving at the deepest part soon."

Learning that they were about to arrive at the deepest part, Wan Shitong quickly perked up.

As the road narrowed again, Wan Shitong suddenly felt his lower leg was a bit itchy again.

Turning his head to look at Chen Ang, he didn't know whether to say it or not for a moment.

Slowing down his pace slightly, he looked down at his lower leg.

Looking left and right, he didn't find anything unusual, so he continued forward.

As he kept walking and rubbing, he only felt his lower leg was extremely itchy.

When a bad premonition gradually rose in his heart, he hurriedly stopped his pace.

"Boss, I don't know why, but I feel my lower leg is getting itchier and itchier, it seems... it seems..."

Speaking of this, he didn't continue.

Seeing the anxious expression on his face, Chen Ang hurriedly squatted down.

After letting him turn around in front of him, Chen Ang's gaze fell directly on the back of his lower leg.

Because there was an Ant Beast crawling there, and its mouthparts were tightly stuck to Wan Shitong's lower leg!

Startled in his heart, Chen Ang hurriedly grabbed him.

"Don't move, this time there really is an Ant Beast!"

Hearing Chen Ang's words, Wan Shitong's heart instantly jumped to his throat.

"Boss, wh... what should I do?"

"Leave it to me, don't move at all."

Wan Shitong had already tied the top, the Ant Beast couldn't get in, so it could only attack his lower leg, but the lower leg is much stronger than the foot, although it was attacked, it wouldn't be fatal, just deal with it.

After stabilizing Wan Shitong, Chen Ang rubbed his ten fingers, and ghostly blue flames instantly burst out from his fingertips.

Seeing the flames, Wan Shitong swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously.

"Boss, you won't burn me to death, will you?"

"Don't worry, I'll only burn it and not you."

After saying this, Chen Ang flicked his fingertips forward, and the flames flew out following his movements.

When the flames landed accurately on Wan Shitong's leg, Chen Ang suddenly heard a harsh sound wave coming.

Looking at the Ant Beast burned to ashes, Chen Ang's pupils shrank suddenly!

Grabbing Wan Shitong's wrist, the two retreated a step fiercely.

After the feeling on his leg suddenly disappeared, Wan Shitong asked Chen Ang with some confusion: "Boss, I don't feel anything at all, why did you suddenly become so nervous?"

Staring at the ground, Chen Ang still held him tightly, and said with a serious expression: "There was a sound wave just now; I suspect the Ant Beast is calling its own kind."

As soon as Chen Ang's words fell, Wan Shitong instantly widened his eyes.

"Th... is this true?"

"Hmm, very likely."

Just as Chen Ang's words fell, a rustling sound came from far to near.

Moving their ears, the two immediately became vigilant.

As the sound approached, Chen Ang retreated a step fiercely, and the Zhenyue Divine Spear in his hand was also thrown out.

When the Zhenyue Divine Spear hit the ground heavily, a piece of red was lifted from the dark, and that dense red was exactly the Ant Beast!

Looking at these thousands of Ant Beasts, the two only felt their scalps go numb.

Subconsciously hiding behind Chen Ang, Wan Shitong swallowed a mouthful of saliva fiercely.

"Boss, there are too many, what should we do?"

"Try with fire first."

Now the effect of the pill in their bodies is excellent, and the flames released are extremely strong, so Chen Ang wanted to try this method.

Understanding what he meant, Wan Shitong could only nod in agreement.

The two separated to both sides, and Chen Ang took the lead in picking out a cluster of flames with the Zhenyue Divine Spear.

Aiming at the position where there were the most Ant Beasts, Chen Ang sprayed the flames directly.

In an instant, the flames rose several feet high, firmly surrounding those Ant Beasts.

Just when Chen Ang thought his flames would have an effect, he suddenly found that the Ant Beasts crawling out of the flames became even bigger!

Surprised by this discovery, he pulled Wan Shitong and retreated a few steps fiercely.

This phenomenon is not right, and this is definitely not a good phenomenon!

Looking at the surging Ant Beasts, Chen Ang directly extinguished the Nine Nether Underworld Flame on Wan Shitong's hand.

"What's wrong?" Wan Shitong asked with confusion.

"Can't use flames; they might have stayed by the Fire Red Flower for a long time, so they are not afraid of flames. On the contrary, flames with ability will help them; look at their body size, it's clearly several times bigger than before they experienced the flames!"

Looking closely, Wan Shitong only felt a layer of cold sweat on his back.

Chen Ang was right; the body size of these Ant Beasts was indeed several times bigger than before!

Feeling a bit panicked in his heart, he hurriedly extinguished the flames on his hands.

"Boss, what should we do now? How can we eliminate them?"

"Don't know, but they are about to crawl over, let's use force to deal with them first."

Seeing that the Ant Beasts were about to crawl in front of them, Chen Ang didn't have much time to consider, so he could only choose to deal with it first, so as not to let the two of them lose their lives here. ===== CHAPTER 830 =====
