Chapter 447
After Wuzhiqi saw the Sword Blade Crab King appear, he let out a long sigh, which piqued Ye Bai's curiosity.
"Wuzhiqi, why are you sighing?"
"Do you know the Sword Blade Crab King?"
Wuzhiqi slowly stood up.
"Of course. I used to have Exotic Beasts of this type among my subordinates."
"I know their weaknesses very well."
"Although their large pincers are sharp, they will snap instantly if they encounter something heavy and hard, and the regenerated pincers are not as sharp for a while."
"This Flame Ghost King can still beat the Sword Blade Crab King."
"However, the Sword Blade Crab King and the Iron Spear Shrimp King usually have a relationship where the soldiers never leave the general, and the general never leaves the soldiers."
"Since the Sword Blade Crab King has appeared, the Iron Spear Shrimp King should also be nearby."
"The Flame Ghost King might be at a disadvantage."
The rain fell in a drizzle, and before long, it turned into a torrential downpour.
The splashing rain soon landed on the magma, emitting bursts of hot steam.
Amidst the white vapor, Ye Bai soon discovered a dark shadow; it seemed to be lurking somewhere, waiting quietly for an opportunity to arrive.
Through the Truth Eye, Ye Bai saw the appearance of this Pet Beast.
The Iron Spear Shrimp King's body was a deep blue-black, its shell as hard as iron, covered in fine patterns.
The most eye-catching feature was its pair of iconic, massive pincers.
This pair of pincers was not only astonishing in length but also exceptionally sharp, resembling two finely crafted long spears, flashing with a cold light, capable of easily piercing through an opponent.
The inner sides of the pincers were also covered in serrated barbs; once they clamped onto prey, it was like being tightly bound by chains, making it difficult to escape.
The Flame Ghost King was deceived by the white mist, while the Iron Spear Shrimp King swam silently through it like a lurking assassin, and the Sword Blade Crab King fought back and forth with the Flame Ghost King.
Just at this moment, the blade pincer collided with the Yanjing Chui, emitting a crisp "Crack!" sound.
Soon, cracks appeared on the shell of the blade pincer.
The Sword Blade Crab King endured the pain to sever its own crab pincer and hurriedly retreated backward.
Just as the Flame Ghost King relaxed its vigilance due to the Sword Blade Crab King's Depart, the Iron Spear Shrimp King suddenly launched an Assault.
It surged out from the white mist like a black bolt of lightning, its massive pincers, flashing with silver-white arcs, clamping toward the Flame Ghost King with lightning speed.
This strike condensed all of the Iron Spear Shrimp King's strength and speed; the pincers closed in an instant, emitting a loud "Crack!" sound, and the Flame Ghost King's arm holding the magma giant hammer was clamped by the Iron Spear Shrimp King.
Although the Flame Ghost King reacted quickly, it still appeared somewhat caught off guard by this sudden sneak attack from the Iron Spear Shrimp King.
Just at this moment, the Iron Spear Shrimp King exerted a sudden force, and the Flame Ghost King's arm was snapped off raw.
The arm turned into magma and fell to the ground, and the magma giant hammer hit the ground heavily, emitting a loud "Boom!" sound.
The Flame Ghost King clutched its severed arm, and a look of anger flashed in its ruby-like pupils.
"Roar!"
The Flame Ghost King emitted a deafening sound.
It could be seen that a large amount of flames erupted from its entire body.
The flames instantly spread out, and the high temperature emitted directly dispersed the white mist, revealing the Iron Spear Shrimp King and the Sword Blade Crab King.
The Flame Ghosts all looked at these two Pet Beasts with unkind gazes.

"Attack, Sword Blade Crab King, Iron Spear Shrimp King."
The two Pet Beasts were commanded by Shui Yueri; currently, Shui Yueri has appeared with three Pet Beasts, each of which is very strong.
"Freezing Gun."
The Iron Spear Shrimp King's long spears instantly turned ice-blue, covered with a thick layer of ice spikes.
It thrust heavily toward the front, and one Flame Ghost after another was hit by the Freezing Gun, roaring as they froze into ice.
The next second, the Iron Spear Shrimp King raised its long spears again, the spears piercing through the ice blocks and into the cores of the Flame Ghosts.
Only a crackling sound of explosions was heard, the ice blocks were shattered directly, and the Flame Ghosts suddenly vanished into thin air.
A fractured red core fell to the ground.
But this core was soon devoured by a nearby Flame Ghost.
The Flame Ghost that devoured the core seemed to have grown a bit larger in size.
"It seems that Flame Ghosts are produced by devouring each other; that is how the previous Flame Ghost King appeared."
Ye Bai rubbed his chin and reached this conclusion.
"Although the Sword Blade Crab King and the Iron Spear Shrimp King are powerful, they are likely powerless when facing so many Flame Ghosts."
"Moreover, as the number of Flame Ghosts decreases and more cores are dropped, the speed at which the Flame Ghosts evolve increases."
"If another Flame Ghost King emerges, Seven Stars will be in a very sorry state."
Ye Bai said to himself.
"No, that won't do; there must absolutely not be another Flame Ghost King."
Yantong sat on a Space Jellyfish and appeared before Ye Bai.
"The appearance of this Flame Ghost King has already broken free from the shackles of the Flame God Palace."
"If one more Flame Ghost King appears, the Flame God Palace might completely collapse, and at that time, the entire Tongzhudiyu will fall into chaos."
Yantong said with a serious expression.
"But isn't Tongzhudiyu already empty?"
"Besides, the Flame Ghosts are not regenerating. Since that is the case, all you have are two Flame Ghost Kings, so what is the difference?"
"The original purpose of establishing Tongzhudiyu was to suppress the Flame Ghosts and prevent them from giving birth to a Flame Ghost King."
"Since a Flame Ghost King has already been born, it would be better to let the Flame Ghost King rush out of Tongzhudiyu."
"In any case, the Flame Copper Pillar does not necessarily have to rely on the Flame Ghost King."
"On the contrary, because of the reason for sealing the Flame Ghosts, the Flame Copper Pillar has consumed a lot of power."
"Now I think you should just wait and see what happens here."
"And then act when the opportunity arises."
"Flame Ghosts are both a burden to Tongzhudiyu and its guards, so if Seven Stars attacks Tongzhudiyu later, you must be prepared."
"Don't blame me for not warning you; it's just that the rhythm of Seven Stars' attack is too fast, and I didn't have time to react either."
"Xiaolan, notify Daonan to prepare for the response."
"These Black Zombies seem to have adapted to the magma and will launch a counterattack soon; we must be prepared."
Shui Youri watched the Black Zombies getting scorched and blackened, and the corners of his mouth gradually rose.
"Although these Flame Ghosts restrain the Black Zombies, for the Black Zombies, they can also be considered top-grade supplements."
"If I can exterminate this group of Flame Ghosts, perhaps I can refine an eighth-rank Unchanging Bone."
"With an Unchanging Bone, my status in Seven Stars will also be infinitely elevated."
Shui Youri was raising Gu; the Black Zombies that could survive would inevitably be able to absorb more resentment and evolve into powerful Unchanging Bones.
"By then, I don't know how many people from the Bureau will be able to survive."
Shui Youri said with cold eyes.
"Yantong, let's lift the seal that binds the Flame Ghosts first."
"Having the seal on them will only weaken the strength of the Flame Ghosts."
Ye Bai offered a suggestion.
Although Yantong was very unhappy, he still followed Ye Bai's suggestion and used the Flame Copper Pillar to release the Flame Ghosts.
Having lost the shackles of the chains, the strength of the Flame Ghosts soared, and the Black Zombies that had originally risen up began to slump again under the suppression of the Flame Ghosts.
A large amount of resentment was emitted and absorbed by the Flame Ghosts and Black Zombies; the numbers in both camps were decreasing, but the strength of the remaining Black Zombies and Flame Ghosts had increased significantly.
The Nether Hell Wolf hid in the shadow of one of the Black Zombies, and it was taking advantage of the cover to absorb the resentment filling the sky and the energy cores on the Flame Ghosts.
Its strength was advancing by leaps and bounds.
"Alright, let's go to Scissors Hell first."
"We must ensure that the first line of defense is not breached so quickly; if we can keep Seven Stars at the first line of defense, that would be the best thing."
Ye Bai said with a smile.
After Yantong lifted the chain seal, the chains automatically returned to the rift.
And the Heaven-Swallowing Pelican flapped its wings again; with a light flap, waves of spatial energy surged out from its wings.
In just a moment, the rift was directly repaired, preventing Seven Stars from using this passage to enter Tongzhudiyu.
Qi Luck Hall.
The five Marshals gathered again.
"Seven Stars is now attacking the Bureau, and the situation is a bit chaotic; do we need to send a Pillar of the Nation to save the situation?"
The Azure Dragon Marshal pondered for a moment and asked the others.
"No need. With Kuimulang there to hold the fort, I don't think there will be any problems. Besides, there are Zhang Yuelu and Xinyuehu; they are both good at group attacks, so don't worry about any problems."
The Vermilion Bird Marshal shook his head and refused.
"Moreover, we have another big trouble now that needs to be solved."
"That is the Haoshen Abyss; that is the place we need to focus on."
"The angels have already started attacking the Crystal Wall of the Haoshen Abyss."
"Once the angels successfully break the Crystal Wall, they will follow the Crystal Wall and enter the Haoshen Abyss."
"If the demons in the Haoshen Abyss are not up to the task, it is very likely that these angels will swarm out."
"Although we have already made defenses, we cannot rule out whether there are traitors who will move the magic arrays deployed on the periphery of the Haoshen Abyss."
The Black Tortoise Marshal expressed his thoughts.
It was not that he did not want to send reinforcements, but the situation was already very tense.
"Besides the Haoshen Abyss, large-scale Beast Tides have started to appear at the Nantianmen Fortress again, and the frequency of the Space Rifts opening there has accelerated."
"Our manpower is really not enough now."
"Let's do this: to prevent any accidents at the Bureau, if the phenomenon of the Seven Stars consecutively breaking through the ten-fold Rashomon truly occurs, I shall make the trip myself."
The Black Tortoise Marshal stroked his graying beard and said to the four people.
"But hasn't your injury still not healed?"
The White Tiger Marshal frowned.
"It is of no concern; these are all minor matters, and I can handle them well."
"Besides, I am not going right now, but rather, if a scene occurs where the Bureau truly cannot hold out, I will then set out to guard it."
"With me here, even a demigod should not think about breaking my tortoise shell."
The Black Tortoise Marshal said with firm determination.
At this moment, Ye Bai and the other two had already arrived at the Scissors Hell.
The main gate of the Scissors Hell was a pair of giant scissors, emitting an astonishing baleful aura.
Ye Bai felt his own neck turn cold, and so he gave a shiver.
After receiving the news, Daonan hurriedly went out to welcome them.
"There is no time; do not engage in these empty formalities. The people from Seven Stars have already arrived, and I have used a small trick to block them in front."
"The ten-fold Rashomon, including the entire base of the Bureau, must be under my control."
"During this period of battle, we will implement controlled measures; if you can work, then work, if you cannot, then get out."
Time waits for no one now; Ye Bai had to assign the tasks as quickly as possible.
"The Scissors Hell is filled with a large number of scissors; these scissors can even kill with a single scratch."
"Because the baleful aura is too heavy, the scissors are placed here; only by receiving enough incense can the resentment of the Scissors Hell be worn away."
"After the Flame Ghost army is completely extinguished, the Seven Stars will assault the Scissors Hell."
"You need to summon the Hell Scissors to help you repel the enemy."
"I can remind you of one thing: each person in the Seven Stars specializes in a different direction."
"Once there is a way to break your Scissors Hell, do not hesitate; leave this place early."
"And take the Rashomon with you. I know the bitterness and pain in your hearts; I hope you can live for yourselves."
"After all of this ends, go out and travel more."
"As for the Bureau's supernatural energy, seal what can be sealed, and completely erase what cannot."
"I want to strip away the core Research Institute of the Bureau and have the Imperial Capital Research Institute take over this place."
Daonan only heard Ye Bai's mouth opening and closing like a machine gun, vibrating Daonan's head until it was buzzing.
"Alright, alright, I know, please do not repeat it."
Just at this moment, a violent explosion came from outside the first layer of the Rashomon, and a super-large meteorite descended from the sky, with its target being the very direction where the Bureau was located.
"It seems this is the backup plan of those people?"
"Since the Flame Ghosts couldn't win, they went straight for the ultimate move, but fortunately, I was prepared."
