These black ants were very large and had very strong killing power. Zi Chen believed that if he ran a little later, he would have been submerged by the black ants in an instant.
Just as he used his extreme speed to jump out of the black ant's back, he saw that the area in front of him was already densely covered by the black ants, and the number of layers was still increasing. There were still countless black ants rushing towards him at high speed.
With a tap of his foot, he leaped into the air and flew more than ten meters away.
By using Extreme Speed, he was able to keep his steps light and not be swallowed by the ants.
By the time he stabilized himself more than ten meters away, the hole he was hiding in was no longer visible. All he could see was a dense mass of black ants, completely covering the hole.
At this moment, the wind was still whistling, the earth was still shaking, and the roars of beasts and angry shouts were still ringing out.
Zi Chen, who was retreating, couldn't be bothered to see who was fighting here. Losing his hiding place meant that he would soon be swallowed up by the dangerous night. The only thing he could do now was to find a place to hide as soon as possible.
After deciding on a direction, he rushed forward without hesitation at an extremely fast speed.
As he charged forward, he glanced into the distance from the corner of his eye and saw the scene there.
There were three people who looked like shadows and a black bear that looked like a puppet. They were surrounding a fake divine beast that couldn't be seen clearly. The two sides were fighting.
However, his sudden appearance caused the three of them to turn their heads in surprise.
Zi Chen retracted his gaze from the corner of his eyes and began to speed up. He was definitely using his extreme speed.
According to the old man, there was an inn not far away from the cave.
This was also the place that the old man had specially chosen. If anything were to happen at night, he would be able to rush there and receive protection.
Unexpectedly, just as Zi Chen was about to escape, a deafening roar was heard. It was the Pseudo-Divine Beast that had been fighting with the three people and the black bear. It suddenly broke through their encirclement and headed forward.
Perhaps it was a coincidence, but the direction in which the other party was charging was coincidentally the direction in which Zi Chen was escaping.
The speed of this pseudo-divine beast was very fast. While the three of them and the bear were in a daze, it had already caught up with Zi Chen.
Maybe it was because Zi Chen was blocking its way, or maybe it hated humans too much, or maybe it saw that Zi Chen was too weak. The Pseudo-Divine Beast, which was running away, suddenly opened its bloody mouth and rushed toward Zi Chen.

A strong wind swept over from behind, blowing Zi Chen's tattered robe. Even though he didn't turn around, he knew what was happening behind him. A cold light flashed in his eyes. With the bamboo basket on his back, he directly grabbed the snake's head and turned around to smash the pseudo-divine beast like an iron lock.
After turning around, Zi Chen finally got a good look at the Pseudo-Divine Beast. It looked like a wolf with a horn on its head. Apart from that, there was nothing special about it.
However, such a thing was even more powerful than some Saint Beasts.
"Pa!"
The whistling snake's tail hit the wolf's head in an instant, making a crisp sound.
After being hit by a huge force, the wolf's head turned in midair. Under the support of inertia, the side of its face continued to rush forward.
Releasing his right hand that was grabbing the snake's head, Zi Chen clenched his fist and hit the wolf's face with all his strength.
"Peng!"
Another sound rang out, and the lone horned wolf was sent flying backwards.
The powerful rebounding force caused Zi Chen's body to sway. Ignoring the pain in his right hand, he shook it and continued to charge forward with the puppet snake on his shoulder.
Not far away, the three people and one bear who were about to charge forward were stunned when they saw the weak-looking guy in front of them send the Lone Horned Wolf flying so cleanly. They were somewhat astonished, and their speed slowed down slightly.
"Roar!"
The roar of the beast continued to sound. This time, there was less fear and more anger.
After the Horned Wolf landed on the ground, it once again pounced towards Zi Chen. Its pair of eyes were filled with cold killing intent.
"Get lost!"
A strong gust of wind blew in all directions, indicating that danger could descend at any time. Seeing the single-horned wolf charging at him again, Zi Chen was truly enraged. With a furious roar, he once again waved the puppet snake towards the single-horned wolf.
In his hand, the puppet snake was like a long whip. It accurately struck the lone horned wolf, causing it to whimper in pain. However, Zi Chen did not care at all. In an instant, he sped up and charged forward, striking the lone horned wolf's head with a punch.
After knocking the Unicorn Wolf to the ground, Zi Chen rushed forward again. His left leg was stuck on the struggling wolf's leg. His left and right hands clenched into fists, and like raindrops, his fists continuously hit the Unicorn Wolf's head.
Each of Zi Chen's attacks was filled with his full strength. Every time his fist landed, it would cause the ground to tremble.
"Peng!" "Peng!" …
As the fists fell, the Unicorn Wolf's mouth was bleeding, and it let out a whimper.
The three people and the bear in the distance were completely dumbfounded.
It seemed that this was the first time they had seen a Puppet Master fight with a puppet. Not only was his fighting style strange, but his speed and strength were also ridiculously strong.
Although the Unicorn Wolf had suffered some injuries under their siege, it was definitely not something that a person could deal with alone.
But looking at the guy in front of them, he seemed to be fighting effortlessly.
"Not good, there's a Divine Ant!"
Just as they were watching Zi Chen's battle in a daze, a cry of alarm came from the black bear's mouth.
Hearing this cry of alarm, the other three people's expressions changed, and then they all wrapped themselves in black robes.
The black robes covered their entire bodies. Even the place where their eyes were was covered by a layer of crystal.
The sound of the wind suddenly became louder, and there was a rustling sound in it, which made Zi Chen feel that something was wrong.
The moment he turned his head, he saw a black wind coming from afar. It was like a real wind, and in that wind, there were countless black ants. They were entangled together, and with the help of the wind, they flew at a very fast speed.
This scene gave Zi Chen a big fright. He no longer cared about the Unicorn Wolf under him, got up, grabbed the puppet snake, and ran.
The Unicorn Wolf, who had endured who knows how many punches from Zi Chen, was still a little dizzy after getting up, and its body was swaying.
However, its perception of danger was clearly superior to these people. Before it could stand firmly, it bent its body and instantly charged forward with all its strength.
The wind blew, and the black ants in it brushed past the Unicorn Wolf's body. Only a dozen or so black ants landed on the Unicorn Wolf's body, while the rest continued to move forward with the wind, their target was Zi Chen.
As for the three people and the black bear, they stood in the wind, allowing the black ants to pass by, but not a single one attacked them.
The wind became stronger, and Zi Chen could clearly feel that danger was approaching.
And the speed at which the danger was approaching him was even faster than his running speed.
He, who was moving forward, knew that he couldn't escape. In an instant, he turned around, swung the puppet snake, and smashed it forward.
"Pa!"
The puppet snake, which was close to four meters long, swept past, breaking the swarm of black ants at the front. Many of the black ants fell to the ground. Some died, while others struggled to crawl towards Zi Chen.
"Pa!" "Pa!"
The puppet snake in Zi Chen's hand danced continuously, and the sound of "pa pa pa" continued to ring out. A large number of black ants were scattered and fell to the ground.
However, the number of black ants was too great, and could be said to be innumerable. Adding the strong wind, after Zi Chen had struck five times, the large swarm of black ants behind had already rushed forward.
In the blink of an eye, Zi Chen had become an antman.
"Is he dead?"
Not far away, the three people wearing special robes looked at Zi Chen, who was surrounded by the swarm of black ants, and one of them muttered.
"He's still not dead? Could it be that he's still a god?" Another voice rang out. It was actually a clear female voice.
"This guy has some tricks up his sleeve. It's a pity that he died just like that." The third person sighed.
The female who spoke first turned around, looked at the black bear, and said, "Isn't it because you were too reckless and destroyed his hiding place?"
The black bear awkwardly scratched its bald head, and said embarrassedly, "Isn't that a mistake? Who knew that the Horned Wolf would be so strong."
Just as the four of them were talking, in front of them, where the black ants had completely covered, there was suddenly a three-colored smoke rising.
The moment the smoke appeared, it spread out in all directions. The black ants quickly melted and disappeared in the three-colored smoke.
"That's the three-colored poison smoke!
They must have accidentally triggered the mechanism in the puppet snake. "The black bear said in shock after seeing this scene.
As the three-colored poison smoke spread out, more and more black ants disappeared.
These black ants clearly had some kind of intelligence. The continuous disappearance of their companions made them feel fear, and they immediately scattered.
Those who ran fast could still live, while those who ran slow directly disappeared.
In the blink of an eye, the huge swarm of black ants from before scattered just like that.
The three people and one bear looked forward, and even ignored the Horned Wolf not far away. Under normal circumstances, when the black ants covered the whole body, there would be nothing left when the black ants scattered.
At this moment, something far beyond their expectations happened. After the tri-colored poison mist became slightly diluted, a figure rushed out from it and ran away.
The figure carried a bamboo basket on his back and a puppet snake on his shoulder. There were no injuries on his body, and even his running speed was as fast as before.
"How could this be?"
Looking at the figure that disappeared in a flash, the three people and one bear were stunned and speechless again.
They had never seen anyone who could walk out of the three-colored poison smoke unscathed. Moreover, that person's body did not have any light circulating around it. It was obvious that he did not take the special antidote pill.
Just like that, they saw that person run and run, constantly releasing the three-colored poison smoke to resolve the crisis, until he completely disappeared from the sight of the three people and one bear.
The wind blew away, and the black ants disappeared. The Horned Wolf did not run far before the injuries on its body broke out, and it fell down with a few black ants on its body.
