Chapter 513: Ghost Bride

"The perimeter of the Wanghou Tomb has been sealed; how should we break through?"

Ye Canghai said, frowning.

He was not skilled at dispelling seals; he was better at breaking them through brute force.

It was just that now, with the Paper Craftsman and the Coffin Shop watching, Ye Canghai was also worried he might disturb that Wanghou.

What if it returned to the Wanghou Tomb the moment it broke through?

"Actually, it's quite simple: Heaven-Swallowing Pelican, Space Transfer."

Ye Bai snapped his fingers, and the surrounding scenery suddenly shifted.

Ye Canghai and Ye Bai had both arrived in a place filled with blood.

Blood flowed everywhere here; just how many humans had this Zombie King harmed?

It was truly a place where human blood formed rivers and human bones formed mountains.

"It seems the Paper Craftsman and the Coffin Shop are accomplices."

Ye Bai said very calmly.

After all, in this place filled with blood, his Blood Pool could reach its maximum efficacy.

"Blood Flood Dragon, absorb all the blood in the Blood Pool."

The Blood Pool appeared out of thin air, and Ye Canghai stared intently at it.

"Isn't this the holy relic of the Blood Saint Son?"

"How is it in your hands?"

Ye Canghai asked with immense curiosity.

"That, naturally, is something I snatched from his hands."

"After the previous Blood Saint Son was killed by my mother, he discarded a portion of his Soul, reincarnated himself as an infant, and became my classmate."

"After I discovered this later on, I plotted to snatch it from him at the Blood Pool."

"The Blood Pool even birthed an artifact spirit, and I also learned the Blood Saint Son's method for summoning demon gods."

"Even the Blood-colored Skeleton Legion is in my hands."

Ye Bai said with a smile.

"Ye Bai, these years have truly been hard on you. During the time your mother and I were away, how much suffering you must have endured."

Ye Canghai let out a long sigh and said to Ye Bai.

"It wasn't hard, not hard at all. With Dahui and everyone else accompanying me, I didn't feel a shred of hardship."

"Dad, for me, our family being complete is what matters most."

"As long as you and Mom are healthy, that is the best news for me."

"Dad, you both must stay well."

The blood level dropped continuously, revealing a mountain of piled-up skeletons.

The Blood Pool also sent the skeletons into its interior; it would select suitable skeletons to refine into the Blood-colored Skeleton Legion.

Just then, inside the Wanghou Tomb, a coffin made of pure gold shot straight into the sky.

"Ahahaha, I have finally resurrected! As long as I survive the Thunder Tribulation, I will be able to transform into an Unchanging Bone."

"By that time, it won't be so easy to kill me."

A hysterical roar came from the coffin.

The dark clouds above Qiyu County gradually increased, turning as gloomy as ink in an instant.

The black clouds pressed down on the city as if to crush it; countless golden and silver snakes danced wildly within the black clouds, emitting a huge, rumbling sound.

"Boom—, boom—."

Bolts of golden lightning fell from high in the sky, striking heavily onto the coffin.

The pure gold coffin was instantly melted into liquid gold, scattering from the sky.

A zombie wearing a dragon robe appeared in mid-air.

Soon, countless zombies stood up one after another from the Wanghou Tomb.

The dragon-robed zombie sat in a golden carriage, pulled by eight undead bone horses.

Countless zombies wearing finely crafted armor roared toward the sky.

Just then, another bolt of Thunder Light fell from the sky, landing directly into the zombie legion and blasting it to smithereens.

"How truly foolish; having called out so many zombies, aren't you afraid the power of the Thunder Tribulation will be raised to its maximum?"

After seeing this scene, Ye Canghai was also stunned.

"No, this should actually be that zombie's true objective."

"If it wants to evolve into an Unchanging Bone, it must use the most rigid and fierce lightning to strike its body relentlessly."

"The violent electric current will drive out the yin energy within its body."

"If there is even a trace of incomplete transformation, the Zombie King still won't be able to walk in the sunlight."

"Let's just wait and see; this Thunder Tribulation won't end so quickly."

Ye Bai said very calmly.

"What we need to do now is to find the Sun Moon Divine Pearl first."

"But how did the Zombie King's lackeys find our tracks so quickly?"

Zombie dogs came charging over from the distance one after another.

What surprised Ye Bai was that these zombie dogs had clearly undergone mechanical modification.

On their backs were two giant rotating Gatling machine guns.

On their scarlet eyes, there seemed to be infrared detectors.

Who could tell me how someone who has been dead for over a thousand years could have the ability to modify these zombies?

When Ye Bai saw a "Mao" character pasted on the body of a zombie dog, he realized this was the handiwork of the Mao Family.

"Good heavens, the Mao Family really has quite a few tricks up their sleeves when it comes to zombie modification."

"I feel like this guy hasn't used it for the right purposes; if this modification technology were used on mechanical dogs, it could reduce our workload by so much."

Ye Bai sighed deeply and said.

Bang, bang, bang.

Before they even got close, those mechanical dogs started spraying fire one after another.

A massive amount of bullets poured out, and countless shell casings fell onto the floor.

"Wanbian Die, Giant Rock Butterfly Emperor form."

"Use Earth Wall."

Seeing this, the Wanbian Die flapped its wings violently, and countless stone walls emerged from the ground.

The bullets embedded themselves into the stone walls, unable to move.

Just at this moment, those zombie dogs violently shook off the Gatling machine guns on their backs and charged toward the position where Ye Bai was located.

Wanbian Die, do you really think I'm dead?

Gravity.

Countless black ripples spread out, and the zombie dogs were violently pressed onto the ground, unable to move.

Ye Bai watched as these guys were directly crushed into a puddle of meat paste.

At this moment, the ground shook, and a large zombie holding a giant hammer appeared.

He had a total of six thick arms and looked just like a stitched-together monster.

The four large characters "Loyal and Patriotic" were written on his back, and each hand held a weapon.

The giant hammer dragged along the ground, leaving behind streaks of scratches.

A thick, foul stench of a corpse wafted from this guy's body.

"Gravity."

The black ripples landed on the large zombie's body; his movements slowed down a bit, but he did not stop his pace, instead walking forward step by step while resisting the pressure.

"True Light Goddess Butterfly form, True Light Goddess's Forgiveness."

A dazzling, intense light instantly erupted from the Wanbian Die's body, and it directly transformed into a new form.

Watching this large zombie turn into ashes under the sunlight, the Wanbian Die revealed an expression of self-satisfaction.

"Your Pet Beast is not bad; it actually has so many new forms, which really exceeds my expectations."

"Ye Bai, in terms of cultivation, you seem to have already surpassed your master."

Ye Canghai had also investigated Ye Bai's current resume, and his experience was very rich.

They were the cultivation championships at the city, provincial, national, and global levels, respectively.

He had also published many joint papers, specifically regarding the Wanbian Silkworm.

Ye Canghai had not expected that this seemingly unremarkable insect would have so many forms.

"Phew, let's move separately from here on out."

"Let's keep in touch at any time via the Sound Transmission Gu."

This underground Wanghou Tomb is so large that the two must move separately to find the location of the Sun Moon Divine Pearl.

To protect Ye Canghai's safety, Ye Bai specifically had the Sunflower Fairy follow by Ye Canghai's side.

Ye Canghai also had a history with the Sunflower Fairy, so he could naturally get along with her.

They separated at the fork in the road.

Ye Canghai went to the right, and Ye Bai went to the left.

Before he had walked long, Ye Bai saw a paper person fall from the air and land beside him.

"Phew, finally caught up."

The paper person laughed coldly.

"People of the Yan Country, you snuck into the Wanghou Tomb; did you ask me first?"

Ye Bai???

Why would I ask you anything? What can you even do?

Ye Bai was speechless.

"Hmph, I am a descendant of the Paper Maker Lineage, and my name is Zhaxin."

Zhaxin?

Could it be that every time someone says "that's heartbreaking (zhaxin), old friend," they are talking about him?

Ye Bai found it somewhat funny just thinking about it.

"You guy, you are really too impolite."

"I am the most powerful existence in the Paper Maker Lineage."

"Let me show you my true level."

"Ten Thousand Paper Thousand Armies."

Countless white papers flew out from Zhaxin's cuffs like dancing butterflies.

The moment these white papers hit the ground, they turned into soldiers wearing armor and holding long spears.

"Hahaha, no matter how powerful your Pet Beast is, it can't withstand so many paper people, right?"

Zhaxin laughed out loud.

Ye Bai looked at Zhaxin with an expression of looking at a fool.

This guy must be too well protected by Paper Man Nan.

"You don't think that just by sending out a fire-attribute Pet Beast, you can break through these paper men, do you?"

"Let me tell you, the paper men here are all made of special fireproof paper; ordinary flames simply cannot trouble me."

Ye Bai was speechless.

Ordinary, then what about extraordinary flames?

Black Hellfire suddenly emerged.

It instantly spread out in front of all the paper men.

"How is this possible?"

Zhaxin's hands were suddenly stained with the black flames, and he discovered that no matter what method he used, he could not extinguish this fire.

Why on earth is this?

Zhaxin couldn't figure out what was going on either.

"This is Hellfire."

"You can know the answer before you die."

"Did your patron god not tell you that we are not to be provoked?"

Ye Bai laughed coldly.

"No, spare me, I am willing to become your slave, I am very useful."

Zhaxin screamed hysterically, but not long after, he turned into black ash.

Until he died, Ye Bai didn't even look at him properly once.

The black flames, carrying a large amount of Soul, surged into Ye Bai's shadow.

This was the Hell Nether Wolf reclaiming the Black Hellfire.

These flames mixed with Soul were the Hell Nether Wolf's favorite.

"With just this little bit of ability, you still learn to unite with the Coffin Shop, and you still learn to want to become the Southwest King."

Ye Bai was speechless.

Meanwhile, Ye Canghai, who was walking on the other side, encountered a sleazy old man.

He was carrying a large red coffin on his back and was dressed like an old farmer.

His hands were covered in calluses, and he was currently puffing on a pipe, slowly exhaling rings of smoke.

"National Pillar?"

"No, no, although you have broken through to the eighth rank, you are not a National Pillar."

"I cannot identify the Soul Weapon on your body."

"But it doesn't matter, as long as I kill you, that will be enough."

The old man laughed sleazily.

"I once researched Soul Weapons, but I am more obsessed with refining zombies and refining coffins."

"Even Mao Shiba's corpse modification technique was taught to him by me."

"It's a pity that Mao Shiba failed his breakthrough and was wiped out, and along with him, the Corpse City we worked so hard to build was destroyed in one fell swoop."

The old man said coldly.

"I have always turned a blind eye to you staying in Corpse City and have never bothered you."

"But I cannot swallow the fact that you destroyed Corpse City; I must settle this with you."

The old man dumped the ash out of his pipe.

"Hmph, although I haven't reached the eighth rank, the Ghost Bride I refined has reached the eighth rank."

"Let her play with you properly and let you witness the power of the Ghost Bride."

"Come out, Wedding Dress Bride."

The coffin creaked and a crack appeared.

A cyan-gray Lijua emerged from it.

"Ghost Bride, Wedding Dress Bride?"

"Zombie Bride?"

The wind blew slightly, and five large nails were pinning the Ghost Bride's limbs and head.

Corpse aura surged to the heavens, and Ye Canghai was unable to breathe for a moment.

"Phew, die."

"Play with him properly."

"Don't make it too easy for him; you must make him feel visceral pain."

After the person from the Coffin Shop finished speaking, his body turned into countless wisps of cyan smoke and disappeared from the spot.

Only a Ghost Bride with extended black Lijua teleported toward the direction where Ye Canghai was.

Bang.

The Thunder White Tiger blocked directly in front of the Ghost Bride's ghost claws; the Thunder White Tiger, wreathed in thunder, made the Ghost Bride feel faint discomfort.

"Phew, I have to tell you, when I broke through, my Thunder White Tiger also broke through."

"Surprised? Unexpected?"

"I don't want to fight you, but the premise is that you don't hinder me."

"Otherwise, I will have the Thunder White Tiger tear your entire body to shreds."

"You can try it."

Ye Canghai said with a cold laugh.

The ghost bride's ears had long since been pierced through, and her mouth had been stitched shut with strands of black thread.

Black blood flowed from her eyes, making her appear extremely furious.

"Ahhhhh!"

A hysterical sound emerged from within.

The ghost bride became extremely furious.

She hated humans, hated humans intensely.

It was humans who had used thread to stitch her mouth shut and needles to pierce her eardrums.

And they had used massive nails to pin her limbs down; how desperate she was.

A zombie born from this would harbor immense resentment, eventually transforming into a Resentful Zombie with great potential.

She had just been triggered by the Corpse Seal by the people from the Coffin Shop.

Only by killing Ye Canghai and drinking his fill of fresh blood would she be able to calm down.

By that time, the people from the Coffin Shop would also return to seal her back into the pitch-black coffin.

"Poor puppet, let me grant you release."

The Broken Army Spear appeared in Ye Canghai's hand; he swung a spear flower in mid-air, then thrust the spear toward the ghost bride.

The ghost bride extended countless Lijua, blocking them in front of the Broken Army Spear, and Xianghuo splattered everywhere.
