Chapter 443: Scissors Hell

At this moment, the ground trembled slightly.

The scissors throughout the entire Scissors Hell began to clatter and clang.

Many fierce ghosts had half of their Soul sheared off by the scissors, collapsing to the ground and wailing.

There were also some fierce ghosts crawling on the ground, leaving trails of blood everywhere.

Everywhere, "half-life forms" were running about in chaos; missing their upper bodies, only two legs were scurrying around.

The once orderly Scissors Hell had suddenly become chaotic.

Daonan's eyes were cold as she raised an eyebrow: "What is going on?"

"Why is there a tremor in Scissors Hell?"

"This is the first gateway leading to the Bureau; if something goes wrong here, what if the Bureau is invaded by external enemies?"

"Investigate, we must investigate!"

At this time, the secretary beside Daonan hurriedly told Daonan about the scene where the Earth Elemental Giant appeared.

"Earth Elemental Giant? Appearing in the detention center? Why?"

Daonan said with a naive expression.

The secretary covered his face: "Daonan, don't you know?"

"Director Zhishen has been detained by the Twenty-Eight Mansions, and those deputy directors are all under investigation."

"Deputy Director Tufang seems dissatisfied with the suppression by the Twenty-Eight Mansions, which is why he rebelled."

"However, this is a matter for the higher-ups; let's not get involved for now."

The secretary said very solemnly, fearing that Daonan would not distinguish between what is important and what is not, and get involved in the affairs of the higher-ups.

Right now, it is best to ignore everything and protect oneself; otherwise, it is easy to be liquidated by others.

"Don't worry."

"For so many years, I have not experienced these things."

"Don't worry, I have obtained the recognition of the Hell Scissors; the higher-ups won't trouble me."

The secretary secretly slandered in his heart: "They won't trouble you, but they will trouble me!"

Just at this moment, two Earth Elemental Giants, as large as mountains, were being bound by the vines of the Sun Flower Fairy.

The Sun Flower Fairy extended a large number of vines and began to extract energy from the bodies of the Earth Elemental Giants.

At this time, Tufang's face was ashen, because he could feel the fear and despair radiating from the Earth Elemental Giants.

If an Earth Elemental Giant, which has little consciousness, could feel despair, it meant that the Sun Flower Fairy posed a tremendous threat to the Earth Elemental Giants.

"Tufang, thank you for making quite a few contributions for me."

"If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't have found the energy to let the Sun Flower Fairy cultivate Clones."

Ye Bai said with a smile.

"I know you have already tipped off the Seven Stars."

"You no longer have any value."

Ye Bai possessed the data on the ten-layered Rashomon, so he would target these weaknesses to perfect and compensate for them.

The rock giant knelt on the cracked ground, its pupils made of amber crystals trembling violently.

It tried to lift its thick stone arms, but its body was tightly wrapped by hundreds of green vines.

A blazing halo flashed on the Sun Flower Fairy, and stardust-like fragments swirled in the Shadow cast by her eyelashes.

When the Sun Flower Fairy's fingertips lightly touched the thickest vine, those vines began to extract a large amount of energy from the rock giant, drawing the earthy yellow energy into thin streams and injecting them into other vines to create other Clones.

Cracks burst across the giant's face, and a large number of vines grew out from its head.

Its originally earthy yellow exterior began to turn into sand, like fine grains of sand.

It struggled desperately, yet it still could not escape the binding of the vines.

It suddenly raised its head and let out a deafening roar, and sharp stone pillars arched up from the surrounding ground, attempting to pierce the Sun Flower Fairy and kill her right there.

However, the stone pillars were bound by even sharper vines; as the vines gave a light twist, the stone pillars and the Earth Elemental Giant were shattered into pieces with a boom.

Only more than half of the head and a broken body were still struggling to hold on.

She flicked her hand, and instantly thousands of streams of light surged along the vine veins, incubating the final core energy into new Clones.

When the giant's eyes completely turned into gray-white stone orbs, many Clones had already appeared on the scene.

Counting carefully, there were fully a hundred giant Clones.

"Although the quantity is somewhat insufficient, the quality makes up for it."

These Clones were only at the peak of the sixth rank, but they were enough to deal with the Black Zombies.

"Someone, come and lock Tufang up completely."

At this time, a helicopter covered in hellfire descended from the sky.

The wings were covered in black hellfire, and the exterior shimmered with green crystal light, giving people a very eerie feeling.

But Xiaolan walked up and greeted the cockpit of the helicopter.

"Count of Hell, I'll trouble you."

The cockpit door opened, and a black skull wearing a pilot's uniform waved at Xiaolan.

Within the black cranium, ghostly blue hellfire flickered.

My god, isn't this the Hellfire Knight?

Ye Bai felt as if he had crossed over into the wrong show.

"Lord Kuimulang, you have already been delayed for some time, so I called for a helicopter."

"Next, the Count of Hell will take you to Scissors Hell."

"I won't go along; the warden of Scissors Hell is named Daonan, and the Pet Beast she contracted is called Hell Scissors."

"She is the controller of Scissors Hell; try your best not to offend her."

"Since entering the Secret Realm of the Ten-Layer Rashomon requires a powerhouse of at least the Fifth Rank or higher, I will not be going along for the time being."

Ye Bai nodded and climbed directly into the cabin.

"Let's set off, heading for Scissors Hell."

At this moment, Ye Bai specifically sent a message to Qilin Marshal, noting the extent of his current control over the Bureau.

As well as the intelligence he had obtained from the Information System.

The Seven Stars had already begun to take action.

Countless Bone Army soldiers dug spacious tunnels underground.

A large number of Banshees were scattered all around; any Pet Beast that saw a Banshee would have its Soul stripped away by the Banshee and become their food.

Groups of Mandragoras were using Earth Escape underground, searching for the location of the Bureau.

Because the incident happened suddenly, Tufang had not handed over the complete data to the Seven Stars, which included the specific location of the Bureau.

This forced the Seven Stars to conduct a large-scale search in order to finally find the location of the Bureau.

Coffin after coffin was pushed along by skeletons, with black runes resembling tadpoles depicted on the coffins.

Wisps of black Earth Yin Qi were seeping into the coffins along the patterns on the wood.

This was Earth Yin Qi, which could enhance the strength of zombies.

"Leader, this time I need to obtain Blood Pool Hell."

"I need the Cangtian Sin Blood from Blood Pool Hell to accelerate the metamorphosis of the Black Zombie."

"If the Black Zombie can metamorphose into an Unchanging Bone, our idea of establishing an Earthly Kingdom of God will very likely be completed."

Shui Yaori said very urgently.

"Shui Yaori, whatever I can give you, I will give you; whatever I cannot give you, do not ask me for it."

"The Cangtian Sin Blood of Blood Pool Hell is also useful to me."

"However, since you have asked this time, I will let you have it."

"But."

Jin Yaori changed the tone of his voice.

"After the Black Zombie metamorphoses into an Unchanging Bone, it must be used for me; you understand what I mean, Shui Yaori."

Shui Yaori displayed her proud figure as she leaned onto Jin Yaori: "Leader, I understand what you mean; I didn't expect you to be so impatient."

"It doesn't matter, yours is mine, and mine is yours."

Shui Yaori teased.

Mu Yaori held the data in his hand; this data was all passed to him by Tufang, concerning how to enter the Bureau.

"Everyone, as long as we break through Scissors Hell, the Earth Element Giant will meet us on the periphery."

"In order for us to quickly establish the Earthly Kingdom of God, Tufang has still made quite a few contributions."

"I propose that if we can capture the Bureau this time, we let Tufang join us and become one of us completely."

Jin Yaori turned his head to look at everyone.

"I don't care, as long as they can follow the rules within the team."

Huo Yaori waved his hand and said.

"Good, we must accelerate our advance so that we can arrive there in the shortest time and take over the Bureau."

Ye Bai had already rendezvoused with Daonan at this time.

And he had Daonan introduce the weaknesses of Scissors Hell to him.

"My lord, if you want to know the weaknesses of Scissors Hell, according to the rules, I cannot tell you."

"But you are one of the Twenty-Eight Mansions and count as my direct superior, so I will be bold and report it to you."

"We are just like you, chosen by a Soul Weapon."

"The Ten-Layer Rashomon is a Soul Weapon just like your Beichen Sky Wolf Blade."

"After contracting a Soul Weapon, we can possess the power of the Rashomon."

"We will also become the masters of this Secret Realm."

Daonan began to introduce it to Ye Bai.

"The Pet Beast I contracted, Hell Scissors, is like this."

"It is a part of the Rashomon; the Rashomon split a portion of its consciousness into the Hell Scissors."

Ye Bai saw the large eye on the scissors looking straight at him without blinking.

"And the biggest weakness of Scissors Hell is that it looks exceptionally sharp, but it is very afraid of fire-attribute attacks."

"Once it encounters high temperatures, the scissors will melt into molten iron."

"When that time comes, Scissors Hell will naturally be broken because of it."

Ye Bai lowered his head and thought; this drawback was quite serious.

After all, the Seven Stars included Huo Yaori, and this guy was very skilled at manipulating fire-attribute Pet Beasts.

He should have summoned a group of Flame Lizards to attack this place.

Moreover, Tufang had already leaked the intelligence on Scissors Hell.

Thinking of the Explosive Clay of Tu Yaori, he immediately took out a USB drive and inserted it into the computer.

He was looking at intelligence on various ghosts.

"Got it."

When he saw the ability of one type of ghost, Ye Bai's eyes suddenly lit up.

【Name: Drowning Ghost】

【Ability: Can imbue the air with moisture, creating the effect of a sky full of white mist, which causes the air humidity to rise rapidly.】

【Evaluation: As soon as it appears, it will manifest into a black lake. Once someone steps into the lake, they will be dragged into the lake by many hands to be drowned in a pig cage.】

【He does not fear fire-attribute Pet Beasts.】

"Daonan, can these scissors be soaked in water?"

"I have found a very special Ghost, a Ghost that can create a large amount of Black Water."

"It will drag fire-attribute Pet Beasts into the Black Water, and their Souls will also be devoured by the Drowning Ghost."

At this moment, Ye Bai had already received the intelligence sent by the Myriad-Change Butterfly.

He discovered that a vast army of the undead was already charging toward this place from thousands of kilometers away.

Time must be raced against to complete the final mission.

"Seven Stars has already arrived; we have no more time."

Only then did Daonan realize that Seven Stars was going to attack the Bureau.

"Is there anything you need me to do?"

Daonan raised her head and looked at Ye Bai; a cowlick on her head stood up, making her look somewhat dazed and cute.

"Yes, as the first line of defense, you are very important. Not only do you need to block the enemy, but you also need a large amount of supplies to make up for shortages at any time."

"I will have people release the Drowning Ghost; just make sure you don't accidentally injure it."

The abilities of Ghosts are strange and varied, but every Ghost has its weaknesses.

Like the Drowning Ghost, it fears attacks from electric-type skills.

Once hit by a violent electric current, their bodies will instantly explode, and then with a 'Bang!', they will vanish into thin air.

The scissors of the Scissors Hell can make up for this deficiency, as they are originally forged from cold iron.

Possessing metallic conductivity, they do not fear electric current attacks at all.

"Daonan, I will go to the Blood Pool Hell to prepare first. I will have the Clone of the Sunflower Immortal lie in ambush outside Rashomon."

"You must lead the Seven Stars army toward the direction of the Scissors Hell as much as possible."

"If you find that you cannot control Rashomon, or if Rashomon is breached, then hurry and escape."

"As long as the green hills remain, one need not worry about firewood."

"Since Rashomon has already formed a contract with you, if the Secret Realm within its body is shattered, it will also have a certain impact on it. I can only say that if it really comes to that point, the impact might not be very large."

"In my understanding, saving one's life is the most important thing."

Ye Bai patted Daonan on the shoulder and hurried toward the next layer of Rashomon.

Qi Luck Hall.

Qilin Marshal saw the message sent by Ye Bai.

"We must handle what Ye Bai has revealed properly."

"The Bureau has already been infiltrated like a sieve."

"There must be a major reshuffle, otherwise the entire Bureau will be completely rotten."

Qilin Marshal stroked his white beard and said with emotion.

"That is why, it is easy to conquer the world but difficult to defend it."

"Maintaining one's original intention is very important."

"Ye Bai is in too much of a rush; if we want to completely subdue those old slickers, I will have to step in myself."

Qilin Marshal immediately sent an encrypted intelligence report and had someone transmit it to the Bureau.

At once, almost everyone received this secret intelligence.

As soon as they clicked on it, the badge of Qilin Marshal appeared on their phones.

【Qilin Marshal: Everyone, I am Qilin Marshal. The Bureau is a very important department of our Yan Country, and it relates to our understanding of Ghosts.】

【I once appointed Zhishen Dashi to manage the Bureau, but he secretly summoned an Evil God, harming who knows how many people.】

【And Deputy Director Tufang sold the Bureau's intelligence to Seven Stars. Before long, Seven Stars will follow Deputy Director Tufang's intelligence and breach the Bureau.】

【Once the Bureau falls and a large number of Ghosts are released, it will threaten one-fourth of the territory of Yan Country. Does everyone want their own families to suffer the threat of Ghosts?】
