Xia Fan's group of eight, having taken shelter from the Demonic Ant horde in the Seal Formation, sighed in relief and joy.
Right after entering the Demon Chasm, they had all realized to their collective shock that their special abilities were ineffective against the Demonic Ants.
The worst off were Thousand Ink, Duanmu Heng, and Luo Jiuyi. Thousand Ink's combat beasts evaporated on contact with the Demonic Ants, and the same was true for Luo Jiuyi's cat clones.
Duanmu Heng's special ability was vines, a plant-type special ability that could take control of a large part of the battlefield. But when surrounded by the Demonic Ants, let alone control the battlefield, Duanmu Heng had a hard time just surviving. The thick vines would instantly sag weakly and soften open contact with the Demonic Ants.
