Chapter 167 Operation
“Target the source directly?”
Mo Lei had thought that Lin Feng had some wonderful idea, but he did not expect it to be so simple and crude. He could not help but feel disappointed.
Lin Feng did not speak either. In this situation, were there other good solutions that were effecive? None of them worked. In the face of absolute strength, any kind of scheming was useless.
If they wanted to defeat these Terrestrial Ants, they could only defeat the hundreds of Terrestrial Ant demons first. Otherwise, once the Terrestrial Ants broke into the base, the hundreds of demons would cause cataclysmic destruction.
“If we could target the source directly, we would have done so long ago, but it’s completely impossible!”
Mo Lei glanced at Lin Feng, shook his head, and continued, “There are 50 inhuman experts in our North Mountain Base. Including myself, there are only 11 of us. If we add the martial artists in the reinforcements brought by Brother Lin Feng, there are actually only 60 or so inhuman experts. Those Terrestrial Ant demons are not so easy to deal with. We have to be very careful in a one-on-one battle usually. Coming into contact with their acid is very troublesome. Once we lose the protection of Astral Power and get sprayed by the acid, death is certain.”
“Moreover, we don’t have the advantage in numbers. There’s no chance of winning if we fight head-on.”
If he could have fought them head-on, Mo Lei would have done so long ago. Why would he have waited until now?
“We’re not asking all the Metamorphic Realm martial artists to fight them head-on. We’re not trying to kill all the Terrestrial Ant demons either. We need to intimidate them! As long as we can suppress those Terrestrial Ant demons and make them scatter on their own, won’t the crisis be resolved? Moreover, the Astral Power in the bodies of First Level Metamorphic Realm martial artists is too little. They won’t be able to hold any advantage over the Terrestrial Ant demons.”
Mo Lei’s heart skipped a beat. Did Lin Feng intend to mobilize high-level combatants?
“I wonder how many martial artists above the Second Level of Metamorphic Realm there are in the North Mountain Base?”
Mo Lei thought for a moment and said, “There are 18 martial artists above the Second Level of Metamorphic Realm.”
“Eighteen? Not bad. What about Third Level Metamorphic Realm?”

“Including myself, there are only four martial artists at the Third Level of Metamorphic Realm!”
So there were four Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artists. The strength of this North Mountain Base was indeed far superior to that of the South Mountain Base. One had to remember that even when the South Mountain Base was at its peak, back when Zhou Yun was the Chief Commander, there was only one Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artist, and that was Zhou Yun himself.
A Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artist would at least have a few thousand strands of Astral Power in their body. If they were a peak Third Level martial artist, they would even have 9,999 strands of Astral Power. Even if they were sprayed by some acid when fighting those Terrestrial Ant demons, they could still rely on their abundant Astral Power to resist, and still retain their combative ability.
Moreover, even if they were no match for the demons, their chances of escaping would also be relatively high.
Hence, Lin Feng said directly, “Brother Mo Lei, not all Metamorphic Realm martial artists will fight head-on, but the five of us. The four Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artists in your North Mountain Base plus myself make up a total of five people. We’ll go and defeat those hundreds of Terrestrial Ant demons. The remaining people, together with the martial artists from the South Mountain Base I brought, will be able to hold the North Mountain Base for a period of time. There won’t be any problems, right?”
Lin Feng’s words made Mo Lei’s eyes widen. He seemed to be somewhat incredulous.
“Challenging hundreds of Terrestrial Ant demons with only the five of us?”
Even Mo Lei felt that this was simply too insane. Five people challenging hundreds of Terrestrial Ant demons? Just the thought of it made him shudder. Moreover, was Lin Feng a Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artist?
Seeing that Mo Lei was a little doubtful, Lin Feng explained, “Brother Mo Lei, the hundreds of Terrestrial Ant demons are indeed terrifying, but they are all spread out and have not gathered together. Therefore, we won’t face the attacks of hundreds of Terrestrial Ant demons simultaneously.”
“Moreover, how dense is the Astral Power in a Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artist? Even if they’re surrounded, they can hold out for a while. It won’t be that difficult to escape. Even if we fail, our lives won’t be in danger. In that case, why don’t we give it a try?”
“If something really went wrong internally in that colony of Terrestrial Ants and they are without the Queen Ant, as you’ve hypothesized, they are already in a state of panic. It is not impossible for us to scare away these Terrestrial Ants with a surprise attack.”
Hearing Lin Feng’s words, Mo Lei also began to consider it carefully.
That’s right. Previously, he had been intimidated by the hundreds of Terrestrial Ant demons. In reality, he wasn’t the only one. Almost all the martial artists in the North Mountain Base were intimidated.
This was because in the past, with the Queen Ant around, these Terrestrial Ants were rather organized. They advanced and retreated in unison, as if they were commanded by the best commander, and were extremely difficult to deal with.
However, things were different now. He could confirm that the Queen Ant was definitely not involved. These Terrestrial Ant demons were actually already spread out. There were some twenty-odd Terrestrial Ant demons gathered at one place at most. If they really launched a surprise attack, they would not have to face hundreds of Terrestrial Ant demons at the same time.
Even if they failed, they could retreat with ease.
As the saying goes, a bystander sees things clearly. Unexpectedly, Lin Feng saw things more clearly than him, the Chief Commander of the North Mountain Base. If he really tried Lin Feng’s method, they might really succeed.
“All right, let’s give it a try! However, Brother Lin Feng, it’s best if you stay in the base to command. I’ll transfer the command authority in the base to Brother Lin Feng. The four of us are all Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artists. We can advance and retreat freely and won’t encounter too much danger.”
Actually, this was already a very tactful reminder to Lin Feng that his strength was not up to par. Lin Feng naturally understood. However, he did not get angry. Instead, he said calmly, “It’s fine. There are so many martial artists in the base. It doesn’t matter if I’m here or not. Moreover, Brother Mo Lei, you don’t have to worry about my strength. At critical moments, I have my own methods of surviving.”
Mo Lei did not know what Lin Feng could do. Could a martial artist who had just broken the genetic lock a few months ago possibly break through to the Second Level of Metamorphic Realm?
Moreover, so what if he broke through? Against the siege of the Terrestrial Ants, a Second Level Metamorphic Realm martial artist wouldn’t be of much use.
Although Mo Lei looked down on the strength of the South Mountain Base, Lin Feng had sincerely come to help them. Naturally, he did not want anything to happen to Lin Feng.
“Brother Lin Feng, this operation is rather dangerous. We don’t have absolute confidence either.”
Lin Feng felt very helpless. He was too young, and indeed unable to inspire much trust. However, he really had to be included in this operation. He had already condensed over 5,400 strands of Astral Power in his body. Once he used the Void Bubble, he could instantly slay more than ten Metamorphic Realm demons. Even a Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artists could not accomplish it. Without Lin Feng’s Void Bubble, how could they intimidate those Terrestrial Ants?
However, there was no way to explain this. Lin Feng could only forcefully request to participate in the operation. In any case, once they entered combat, Mo Lei and the others would understand. There was no need to explain deliberately.

“Brother Mo Lei, I came up with this idea. I’m confident.”
“All right, in that case, the five of us will act together.”
Mo Lei could only agree. However, he also made up his mind that if Lin Feng really encountered any danger, he would rescue him no matter what, and absolutely would not let anything happen to Lin Feng.
Mo Lei quickly found the other three Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artists in the North Mountain Base. They all agreed to the operation, but looked at Lin Feng with some surprise.
After the five of them arranged everything in the base, they soared into the sky from the fortress tower and flew towards the hundreds of Terrestrial Ant demons in the distance.
