Ant Lord in the Star Realm-Chapter 595 - 556 Snow Velvet Form

The Snow Velvet Spider King controlled the floating ice, riding the wind and breaking the waves, racing furiously.

As the distance from the Blue Island battlefield widened, the waves gradually lowered to under ten meters.

In the hazy moonlight, Dragon Cypress could vaguely see a raging tide relentlessly surging behind, chasing them without end.

"Snow Velvet Spider King, they're still after us."

"The insects of Blue Island are mad and bloodthirsty."

"Roughly how many ants are hunting us down?"

"Thirty to fifty thousand, I'd say."

"Uh..."

Dragon Cypress choked up.

Ink Orchid asked, "Snow Velvet Spider King, do they have any wind-based flying ants? If not, Dragon Cypress and I can fly overhead."

Snow Velvet Spider King: "They do!"

Snow Velvet Spider King: "Get on my carapace, all of you."

Dragon Cypress, Ink Orchid, and Black Birch leapt and landed atop the Snow Velvet Spider King's carapace.

"I'm about to use the Electric Flicker ability to make our escape."

The Snow Velvet Spider King gave a reminder; two strands of Spider Silk Scroll whipped over, binding Dragon Cypress, Ink Orchid, and Black Birch securely.

Thunder System Primordial Energy erupted; their speed rocketed, the figure turning into a streak of multicolored afterimage, trailing a long tail of deep blue Primordial Energy flames, shooting across the surging waves.

From behind, the pursuing massive wave suddenly surged up, rising higher, accelerating, hounding them relentlessly, and the gap between them began to close.

"They're still chasing!"

The Snow Velvet Spider King burst out in fury, halting in their tracks, unraveling the Spider Silk Rope. "Can't shake them off! Dragon Cypress Ant King, Ink Orchid Lord, Black Birch—you all go on ahead!"

Dragon Cypress: "...Alright!"

Ink Orchid: "Snow Velvet Spider King, let me stay and help you!"

Snow Velvet Spider King: "Go! You won't be any help!"

"Oh..." Ink Orchid fluttered low.

Dragon Cypress and Black Birch dashed across the water.

The Snow Velvet Spider King turned, staring into the oncoming roaring wave, eight blue eyes flashing white, as if pale flames flickered within, silver lightning stretching out along all eight spider legs, crackling with an explosive hiss.

Silver light flared, web-like bolts bursting out and covering a kilometer-wide radius, lighting up the darkness, only to be devoured again by the black.

Amid rolling waves, masses of Stone Hunt Blue Ant corpses floated up. Eerily, ghostly white flames danced atop their bodies, swaying in the sea wind.

The surging giant wave suddenly froze, receded, slowly sank, merging into the sea.

The massive tides behind veered away, and within the dueling zone, the waters grew as still as death.

A deep blue, scimitar-like horn emerged from the surface, then another serrated, spike-studded breast-horn shot up. A giant beetle warrior—over ten meters long, armored in black and blue—rose from the water in stately fashion.

Sea God Horn Beetle Warrior.

Standing atop its head was a Stone Hunt Blue Ant King, blue spots on its chest plate, pale green ring patterns circling its abdomen.

On either side of its massive body, four Assistant Kings slowly surfaced from the water, vicious light gleaming in their eyes as they locked onto the Snow Velvet Spider King.

"You shouldn't have attacked the Flame Spider Roving Merchants."

The Snow Velvet Spider King tried to communicate.

The Stone Hunt Blue Ant King on the Sea God Horn Beetle Warrior's head spoke coldly: "The Flame Spider Roving Merchants shouldn't have set foot on the battlefield."

Ant King snarled: "Kill!"

To the left, an Assistant King flicked its tentacle, raising a wave and hurling it toward the Snow Velvet Spider King.

Silver lightning flashed in succession.

Eight soldier ants with holes blasted through their heads tumbled out from the surf, while ghostly fire flickered at their wounds, raging in the wind and quickly igniting the corpses.

On the sea's surface, the bodies struck down and burned before had now been consumed, leaving only pale flames, still burning over the water.

—Origin Fire.

—Touch of Silver Light.

—It had fused two top-level abilities—Thunderfire—into one, condensing the Divine Mark. Now, the deadly flame ability had the speed of lightning; to touch it was death.

The Ant King saw through the ability's construct. "Be careful not to enter its spiritual power range!"

The Sea God Horn Beetle Warrior slowly retreated.

On both flanks, the four Assistant Kings swept their tentacles in unison, rolling up a mammoth surge aimed at the Snow Velvet Spider King.

Eight streaks of silver lightning spread out from beneath the Snow Velvet Spider King's feet, intertwining and forming a web that instantly draped over the oncoming waves.

The figure stood immovable.

When the tide had passed, countless soldier ant corpses emerged, cold wind howling, the pale flames rising higher, flickering with the swell and gusts above the waves.

Gurk~lurk~

Suddenly, beneath the Snow Velvet Spider King's feet, it was as if a giant beast gaped open its jaws; with a spinning vortex, the entire spider was swallowed in an instant.

Sea Beast Devouring!

A sea beast specialized in lurking and ambush, its coloring identical to the seawater, no life signs, utterly undetectable.

It devoured its target and immediately sped away, plunging for the deep sea...

Suddenly,

A flash of snow-white spiritual energy burst in the deep sea as a massive blue block of ice—shaped like a huge eel—shot upward, broke the surface, giving off brittle cracks as its belly ruptured.

An aura of extreme cold spread, instantly freezing the surrounding sea.

The Snow Velvet Spider King's bristles all stood erect, and the Illusory Color Flame Spider's multicolored carapace crystallized to a translucent white. The whole spider looked like an ice sculpture as it strode out from the broken belly of the eel-shaped iceberg.

The Sea God Horn Beetle Warrior's spiritual power locked tight on the Snow Velvet Spider King, alarmed and aghast. "Koi Fish Ant King, this spider is no ordinary beast!"

The Koi Fish Ant King had sensed the shift beneath the sea too, panic-stricken, crying out, "Retreat!"

The Sea God Horn Beetle Warrior raised its horns, and instantly a hundred-meter-high tsunami roared forth, crashing toward the Snow Velvet Spider King.

Each bristle of the Snow Velvet Spider King was wreathed in chill, spreading outward. Charging straight into the tsunami, every step froze the waves beneath.

Leaping to the wave crest with a glance,

The Sea God Horn Beetle Warrior's form blended into the sea, transforming into surging billows as it retreated south.

"Dare to mess with a Spider!"

The Snow Velvet Spider King huffed, roaring a warning: "I'll slaughter you next time for sure!"

The only reply was the relentless surge of the waves.

The battle on Blue Island raged on, now fiercer than ever.

The Snow Velvet Spider King stood atop a wave-shaped glacier, brooding briefly. Its carapace shimmered, turning prismatic once more, and it hastened off in the direction Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid had escaped.
