Among the cultivators, An Lin and his two friends were the ones closest to the explosion, but they had the protection of the Gundams, thereby ensuring their safety.

The Ant Queen was at the very epicenter of the explosion, and the nuclear bomb was detonated inside her, so it would simply be bullsh*t if she still managed to survive.

The sixteen powerful ants were also somewhat affected by the blast.

They all charged violently toward the cultivators in a fit of blinding rage at the sight of their Ant Queen being detonated.

As the instigators, An Lin, Xu Xiaolan, and Xuanyuan Cheng were their main targets. In particular, Xuanyuan Cheng, who had set off the nuclear bomb, came under ferocious attack as many of the ants risked severe injury to initiate kamikaze attacks on him.

“Hold on, everyone, the Ant Queen is already dead. Sixteen injured ants are no match for us, keep calm and grind them down! We’ll be able to secure victory easily!” Sword Immortal Ling Xiao transmitted his voice to everyone.

An Lin and his group were forced into constant retreat after the explosion, and if it wasn’t for the protection from the Gundams, they would probably have been shredded into mincemeat already.

The situation began to become a bit complex as all the cultivators gathered around the route through which Xuanyuan Cheng was escaping and engaged in guerrilla warfare tactics while the ants initiated kamikaze attacks on Xuanyuan Cheng.

A huge ant completely disregarded the fact that one of its arms had been slashed away when it crushed a Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivator’s head into a pulp, simply because the cultivator was standing in the way of its pursuit of Xuanyuan Cheng.

The onset of blinding rage for the Ant Tribe made the battle even brutal as casualties began to quickly pile up on both sides.

Just as An Lin was quickly retreating through Dog Kinesis Flight, a dashboard suddenly began to flash in his mind.

What the hell is this?!

He was greatly startled by the flashing dashboard and almost crashed his dog.

When he managed to calm himself down and come to his senses, he came to a sudden realization. Could this be… the system!?

That’s right, I’m a man with a system!

An Lin’s eyes instantly lit up. The system had remained silent for a whole year, leaving him with only the words “cultivate hard and improve every day”, leading to him completely forgetting about its existence.

He opened the dashboard excitedly and discovered that there was a special mission flashing.

[Detected that host is being pursued by the Ant Tribe, now assigning the special mission below:

Kill three Soul Formation Stage ants by host’s own hand.

Time limit: Two hours.

Mission Success: Upgrade the Wind Spirit Technique to the second stage (Wings of Wind)

Mission Failure: Deduct twenty vital stones.]

An Lin winced as he read through the conditions for the mission. He wanted to smash the system into pieces.

What the f*ck! The system wanted him to kill three Soul Formation Stage ants by his own hand? He was being chased down by a bunch of ants who were initiating kamikaze attacks on him. If he turned around to counter-attack now, it was probably as good as relinquishing his own life!

“Die!”

An enraged yell suddenly sounded behind An Lin.

He turned to find a huge ant enshrouded completely in a black mist with a black staff in its hand, which had already closed in to within a hundred feet to An Lin’s group.

A few dozen black skulls suddenly erupted from the black staff, all of them screeching dreadfully as the black mist swirled and obscured the sky, before flowing toward the three of them like a black tidal wave.

“Gundam One, Gundam Two, stop them!”

An Lin once again summoned his two Gundams in the face of the fearsome attack.

Two shiny silver automatons stood guard behind An Lin, one of them releasing the Ionic Deprivation Protection Formation, blocking the black mist attack, while the other initiated a gravity amplification force field, causing the huge ant shrouded in black mist to plummet toward the ground.

An Lin did not even have a chance to breathe a sigh of relief before another huge ant charged at him.

This ant was golden in color, and it unleashed insane speed in pursuit of the three of them.

How dare you kill mother! Even if I die, I’ll take you down with me!

The huge ant roared even louder as golden blood gushed from its body. One of its arms and both its legs had been slashed away, but it still pointed its remaining arm at Xuanyuan Cheng as it flew toward him like a golden sword.

Xuanyuan Cheng knew that he couldn’t evade the attack, so he turned and activated his Myriad Spirit Taichi Technique.

A circular energy barrier enveloped his whole body and the projection of a yin-yang symbol appeared behind him.

“Big Brother Cheng!”

An Lin also stopped and brought out his Evil-Slaying Sword.

“Die!” The huge ant had already appeared in front of Xuanyuan Cheng and was stabbing its remaining arm toward Xuanyuan Cheng’s heart.

“Reverse Heaven and Earth.” Xuanyuan Cheng became motionless at this moment, and his body seemed to merge with the
