Chapter 450 - 314: Grandchildren! Come and bathe in the sunshine!
Zi Liyuan was not in a hurry to deal with the Fire Lords in the Magma Lake.
If it weren’t for the Magic Crystal Cannon’s blast that killed several and injured some, he wouldn’t have wanted to harm them at all.
The eight million ghost gods were not to be taken lightly; all of them were sealed here because of their numerous evil deeds.
Although the Fire Lords were not voluntary guardians of the seal, it is undeniable that they had indeed guarded this seal for thousands of years.
Therefore, inherently, these Fire Lords harbored enmity towards the eight million ghost gods within the seal.
Zi Liyuan thought to let these Fire Lords first wear down the ghost creatures, killing as many as possible; the more, the better.
Besides, his Spirit had already probed deep into the Magma Lake, which directly connected to the ley lines and hid countless fire elemental beings within.
If the Fire Lords here were to be attacked by those eight million ghost creatures and suffer heavy losses, they would definitely call for reinforcements, attracting a rebellion of fire elemental beings that would surely give those ghost creatures a hard time.
Most importantly, the three Legendary BOSSes among the eight million ghost gods had to be eliminated first, or else the Fire Lords below wouldn’t stand a chance.
In the face of such a significant power disparity, the Fire Lords were no fools; they would definitely make a strategic retreat, especially after their boss, the Flame Hydra, was taken down.
If the fire elemental Crystal Core didn’t have a significant use, Zi Liyuan might’ve let Ying Xueji and the others just trap this Legendary BOSS; then, after releasing the eight million ghost gods, set it loose to fight those malevolent spirits to the death.
Watching the two sides bombard each other, time passed unconsciously for half an hour.
Protected by the Death Barrier, the Dimensional Ice Prison shattered after a tremor.
Shen Yurou, Xiao Guang, Lao Tie, Spider Queen, Zhu Wu, Liu Shengnan, and Li Fengwen immediately appeared at the spot where the Dimensional Ice Prison broke.
"Here, this is what you asked for. Remember to let me hear the blast when you bomb the Dog Emperor’s palace, I want to see a great firework."
Zhu Wu, holding the axe handle in his left hand and resting the axe blade on his shoulder, gave Zi Liyuan a fire elemental Crystal Core, larger than a human head, with his right hand.
"No problem, that firework will be big and round."
Taking the fire elemental Crystal Core, he summoned Copperbeard·Skeleton Number One and casually tossed the core to him.
"Quality material, Master. This could definitely be used to make a Magic Crystal Cannon core, really use it to make a bomb?"
In the eye sockets of Copperbeard·Skeleton Number One, the soul-fire flickered madly as he caressed the Legendary BOSS level fire elemental Crystal Core, asking in an infatuated manner.
"Nonsense, although the Magic Crystal Cannon can be used continuously as long as there is enough energy, it can’t match the destructive power of a Legendary BOSS self-destructing. I need a strike that can be fatal in one shot!"
Last time, although they broke into the Dog Emperor’s palace, they were unable to breach the enemy’s defense, not to mention the various barriers around the Dog Emperor’s hiding place.
A country’s leader’s dwelling was bound to have strict protection. Without something that could burst with extraordinary power in an instant, Lord Zi always felt somewhat uneasy, afraid of the previous efforts being in vain.
"Everyone rest up, we still have a tough fight ahead."
Ying Xueji was now sitting cross-legged atop Kulong, the Spectral Dragon King, pulling out numerous recovery potions and pouring them into herself. Enjoy new stories from empire
"Don’t worry, Ying Jie, I’m confident I can take down Yuki-onna all by myself."
Liu Shengnan landed next to Ying Xueji, disregarding her image as she sat down and pulled out a huge roasted beast leg to tear into.
"I’ll help Li Fengwen take down Lu Gui first, Ying Jie, you trap Orochi. Once we kill Lu Gui, we’ll come to help you."
Zhu Wu and Li Fengwen landed beside Zi Liyuan, also not caring about appearances, taking out some food to start eating as well.
"Ying Jie, don’t worry, I’ve brought a Soul-Sealing Bottle specifically for hunting ghost kings. With Zhu’s cooperation, we’ll quickly slay Lu Gui."
"Just don’t capsize." n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ying Xueji glanced at them indifferently and continued focusing on recovery without speaking.
Since entering this haunted place, she hadn’t stopped for a moment, especially while crafting the Dimensional Ice Prison, maintaining it until they killed the Flame Hydra, a Legendary BOSS.
The depletion of Spiritual Power in her body didn’t matter; it could be replenished with potions, but the spiritual fatigue was only slowly recoverable with potions.
"Sure you don’t need my help?"
While observing the situation of the seal’s corrosion, Zi Liyuan asked.
"We don’t know how many Epic BOSSes there are. It’s all on you to intercept them; your task is heavier than ours."
Among the three Legendary BOSSes, Yuki-onna and Lu Gui were not particularly strong, but Orochi was a different story.
Similar to a Hydra Monster, Orochi had eight heads controlling eight different elemental powers, and its physical body was also incredibly powerful, truly a high-order being.
Therefore, from the beginning, Ying Xueji and her team’s approach was to first trap Orochi, then the other three would quickly take down Yuki-onna and Lu Gui before ganging up to kill Orochi.
"Alright, you guys will soon witness the true power of the Spectral Dragon Lord BOSS Legion and the Dread Knight King Lord BOSS Legion."
Although he had a good relationship with the four imperial direct descendants, he still needed to showcase his strength to ensure they didn’t underestimate him.
Only then, in the future, when he wanted to connect with the Ancient Empires behind them, he wouldn’t be looked down upon.
"It’s almost time; the seal is broken by one percent, and those ghost creatures are about to lose their patience."
