Chapter 157: Survival of the Fittest

"Tame!"

Ning Daoran used his Commanding All Beasts talent again, and this time he finally succeeded.

In an instant, he established a connection with the Divine Soul of the Fire Devouring Ant, even feeling its exhaustion, grievances, fear, reluctance, and restlessness.

"Are you very afraid?"

Ning Daoran squatted in front of the Chi Long Ding, conversing with the Fire Devouring Ant.

"Squeak~~"

The Fire Devouring Ant gently swayed its antennae.

It knew that consuming Ning Daoran's forty-two Flying Star Centipedes was a grave mistake, pleading only for Ning Daoran not to kill it.

"So..."

Ning Daoran narrowed his eyes, "That Blazing Flame King Worm was actually defeated by you long ago, wasn't it? You ordered it to distract my attention so you could sneak into Qiongbi Peak and consume the Flying Star Centipedes?"

"Squeak!"

The Fire Devouring Ant outright admitted its guilt.

"Hmph..."

Ning Daoran laughed bitterly, "Quite clever, but unfortunately, your time is short."
