Chapter 472: Slaying the Third-Tier

"Truly insidious enough." Looking at the golden needle on the cave wall, Su Fan's expression remained unchanged. That golden needle seemed to be formless and shadowless, its speed extremely fast, and the Golden-Winged Ant had chosen the timing of its attack very well.

But unfortunately, Su Fan's divine sense was very strong, having long since firmly locked onto the two Golden-Winged Ants. Coupled with the movement technique he had cultivated over several lives, at close range, it was almost comparable to the teleportation divine ability of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.

It was naturally impossible for this Golden-Winged Ant to succeed in its sneak attack on him.

Boom boom!

And just as Su Fan dodged the Golden-Winged Ant's golden needle, this Golden-Winged Ant moved again. Its golden wings fluttered, turning into a blur, and it killed toward Su Fan. The two sharp front limbs in front of its head were like scissors, wanting to strangle Su Fan.

But unfortunately, its speed was fast, but Su Fan's movement technique was like a ghost, quickly dodging. What its front limbs cut was only a blur, and at the same time, it cut a large hole in the cave wall.

Although this Golden-Winged Ant didn't have the innate divine abilities of some demon beasts, the power of that golden needle and its scissor-like front limbs was also extraordinary.

Coupled with its extremely fast speed, ordinary Purple Mansion cultivators who encountered it would really find it difficult to be its opponent.

Especially the shell on this Golden-Winged Ant's body, which was extremely hard; ordinary third-tier mid-to-low-grade artifacts found it very difficult to break its defense.

Unfortunately, it encountered Su Fan, whose strength could crush the former.

After dodging the Golden-Winged Ant's attack, Su Fan's bone spear turned into a long staff, and with an upward lifting force, it fiercely smashed into the former's abdomen.

The huge force knocked this Golden-Winged Ant directly over, fiercely slamming it into the stone wall. With a boom, it was like an earthquake, showing just how strong Su Fan's strike was.

Don't look at Su Fan as a cultivator; his physical body had also been cultivated all along. The martial arts body-tempering techniques he had accumulated from multiple worlds were no worse than the cultivation of the main world, so he had been polishing his physical body all along.

Especially the spiritual energy of the main world, which could temper the physical body, making his body-tempering progress very quickly.

It could be said that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a demon beast in human skin.

Having succeeded with one strike, Su Fan didn't stop at all, backhanded and threw the bone spear, which turned into a shooting star, instantly piercing the abdomen of the Golden-Winged Ant, pinning it firmly to the stone wall.

Hiss hiss!

The Golden-Winged Ant hissed crazily, and at the same time, several front and back limbs also turned into blades, hacking at the bone spear, wanting to hack it off.

However, no matter how hard it tried, the bone spear shaft didn't even have a single mark, and instead, one of the Golden-Winged Ant's hind limbs broke off.

The bone spear was crafted from the dragon bones of a Green Dragon from another world, which was stronger than the dragon clan of the early Primordial Spirit stage of this world.

If it weren't for the fact that the dragon might of this bone had already been refined by Bai Qi and the others, the dragon might emitted by this bone alone would probably have been enough to shake this Golden-Winged Ant to death. After all, the Green Dragon's bloodline was considered a top-tier bloodline among the current dragon clan.

In the demon clan, bloodline was very important. High-level bloodline demon beasts had great deterrence toward low-level bloodline demon beasts.

This seemed to be carved into their souls. Some high-level bloodline demon beasts, even if they were second-tier, could even devour third-tier low-level bloodline demon beasts.

Moreover, high-level bloodline demon beasts had greater potential, similar to human spiritual roots.

Some high-level bloodlines, like the dragon clan, were fourth-tier demon beasts upon adulthood, and even flood dragons were third-tier demon beasts upon adulthood.

And some demon beasts had a racial limit of third-tier, like this Golden-Winged Ant, whose racial limit was third-tier, unless they devoured some heaven-sent treasures to break the bloodline limit, otherwise, they couldn't break through to the fourth tier.

Even reaching the third tier was extremely rare.

These two in front of him were able to break through to the third tier, also relying on absorbing the Geng Metal Qi of the Geng Metal Earth Vein.

This was indeed a treasure land, allowing the Golden-Winged Ant clan to develop vigorously. Maybe in a few hundred years, a fourth-tier Golden-Winged Ant would really appear.

However, now that they had been encountered by Su Fan, it was naturally impossible for them to realize it.

Sneering as he looked at the struggling Golden-Winged Ant, the hissing sound was constant, clearly summoning the clan. These Golden-Winged Ants arrived very quickly.

One by one, they bared their fangs and brandished their claws as they killed toward Su Fan.

However, even the third-tier ones were no match for Su Fan, so these second-tier and first-tier ones coming were just delivering food.

Su Fan continuously pinched out thunder fire with both hands and blasted toward the cave entrance.

Instantly, there was constant roaring, and broken limbs flew everywhere. Su Fan's thunder fire divine ability, coupled with the Evolution Space of the Huanyu Realm, had its power increased several times.

It was far more powerful than the second-tier high-grade magic techniques of this world.

Coupled with the fact that it was cast by someone with such extremely thick mana, these second-tier Golden-Winged Ants simply couldn't resist.

To avoid long delays, Su Fan didn't play around anymore, arrived above the head of the third-tier Golden-Winged Ant, and after a flash of rainbow light, this third-tier demon beast also joined the ranks of the dead.

Once this third-tier demon beast died, the other Golden-Winged Ants that had been invading continuously seemed to feel some natural enemy and retreated like a tide.

Seeing this, Su Fan didn't pursue. After all, the number of Golden-Winged Ants was too large, and even if he wanted to slay them, it would take some time.

Now he needed to take out the inner core of the Golden-Winged Ant, which was the most important thing, followed by dismembering the corpses of the two Golden-Winged Ants.

There wasn't much flesh and blood on the other side, so Su Fan only collected some blood, and the rest was the shell of the Golden-Winged Ant, which was the part with the highest value aside from the inner core.

Because the shell of the Golden-Winged Ant was extremely hard, it was very good as a material for refining armor, especially inner armor.

And these two Golden-Winged Ants were both third-tier demon beasts and had absorbed quite a bit of Geng Metal Qi, making them top-tier existences among third-tier materials.

Such a large shell, if handed to the Great Elder, might be able to refine several third-tier low-grade inner armors.

Inner armor and defensive artifacts were different; they could be worn on the body, and inner armor was even more precious than some defensive artifacts.

First, inner armor was difficult to refine, and secondly, materials were not easy to find.

After all, third-tier Golden-Winged Ants were still rare.

Secondly, the two sharp front limbs on the Golden-Winged Ant's body were also top-tier materials for refining attack artifacts. Having absorbed the Geng Metal Qi, the sharpness of these two front limbs far exceeded that of ordinary demon beasts of the same level.

It could be said that these two Golden-Winged Ants were treasures from head to toe. Excluding the inner core, the value of what was on them alone was no less than 6,000 spirit stones.

If the inner core were added, it would be even more expensive.

Of course, if they were processed a second time, the value would be even higher. One inner core, if refined into a Foundation Establishment Pill, assuming a minimum of three, would be worth over 100,000 spirit stones, and with other artifacts, it could reach 150,000.

Of course, there were costs, but the profit was at least 100,000.

This trip was worth 100,000 spirit stones.

This was the ability of high-level cultivators to make money, especially the Foundation Establishment Pill, where the profit was truly too great.

The cost of one furnace of Foundation Establishment Pills was only 20,000 or 30,000, but once successfully refined, it was worth several times that.

It was no wonder that the Taihe Laozu could cultivate several Purple Mansion cultivators; he was simply too rich.

After all, in the Taihe Mountain Range, a furnace of Foundation Establishment Pills would be refined every twenty years or so, and that Taihe Laozu himself was a high-level alchemist. Every time he refined Foundation Establishment Pills, there would be at least five in one furnace.

The value of this was almost 100,000. ===== CHAPTER 473 =====

This value is approximately one hundred thousand.
