Beast Taming: My Intelligence System-Chapter 661 - 442: Flame Ghost King

When Ye Bai arrived at the Copper Pillar Hell, the commander of the Copper Pillar Hell, Yan Tong, appeared with a group of people.

This is the secret realm where Copper Pillar Hell is located, an extremely oppressive environment.

The sky here seems forever shrouded by heavy, dark leaden clouds, never seeing daylight.

The air around is heavy and suffocating, filled with the scent of sulfur and burning, a smell unique to the Copper Pillar Hell.

A chilly wind blows through, and once the scorching air is inhaled into the lungs, there is an indescribable burning sensation — a feeling of burning with every breath.

The Copper Pillar Hell is filled with towering copper pillars, the number of which cannot be counted, seemingly spaced every few dozen meters like giant pillars of lava.

Each one as thick as the spine of a prehistoric beast, with its surface flowing with red-hot lava, like blood vessels.

Encircling the copper pillars are the never-ending Hellfires, flames that are a bizarre black, leaping and twisting.

Below the copper pillars is a boiling sea of lava, red and scorching, churning with numerous orange-red bubbles.

The bubbles burst with deafening roars, releasing large amounts of sulfur gas, each copper pillar covered with numerous red chains.

Some chains hang from the tops of the copper pillars, others wrap around them, and some dive directly into the lava, each chain binding hideous, ugly souls.

Their bodies pierced by the red chains, lava falls constantly from the sky like rain, and when it drips onto the sinful souls, they emit piercing screams of agony.

However, they cannot evade it, the lava scorches their bodies to charcoal, and after being bathed in the lava, their hair turns into bald eggs.

These souls are wrapped in layers of black fog, some thin, some thick.

Once a soul collapses from the torture of the lava and dissipates, it will reappear in the lava sea the very next moment.

They will suffer eternal torment in the Copper Pillar Hell until their sins are fully redeemed.

Ye Bai sat on the Hellfire Helicopter.

The Hellfire fell from the sky, causing the surrounding lava to tremble violently.

By the dim light from the red copper pillars, Ye Bai saw a burly young man standing at the forefront of the crowd.

He seemed to be about twenty years old, with a strong physique, as stable and powerful as a mountain.

Most notably, behind him was an exceptionally conspicuous two-meter-long copper pillar, its surface red, like a miniature of the gigantic copper pillars.

The copper pillar was also wrapped with numerous chains as thick as thumbs, each filled with many eyes.

A sturdy chain slowly descended from the top of the copper pillar, with its end fully submerged in the nearby boiling lava, seemingly drawing power from the lava.

"Welcome, Master Kuimu Wolf."

Yan Tong smiled, yet the smile did not reach his eyes, filled with obscure meaning.

Ye Bai could sense a faint hostility emanating from Yan Tong, but he did not pay much attention to it.

Because just now, the Beichen Celestial Wolf Blade informed him that the materials for constructing the Tenfold Roshomon soul artifact were the same as those for the Twenty-Eight Constellations.

The Twenty-Eight Constellations are celestial spirit soul artifacts, so the Tenfold Roshomon is an earth demon soul artifact, symbolizing the authority of the Ten Halls of Yama.

During the casting of the soul artifact, a part of the Dragon Vein’s aura and Central Gall Red Soul was added, and once the soul artifact detects any ill intent the contractor has towards the Flame Country, it will automatically dissolve the contract and seek another suitable bearer.

This secret is known only to the Marshal of the Five Directions, and Ye Bai is the only Pet Beast Master, aside from the Marshal, who knows this secret.

Although Ye Bai did not know where Yan Tong’s hostility came from, at least he was not standing with Master Zhishen.

"Master."

Yan Tong said in a muffled voice, the copper pillar on his back also emitted a fiery glow, the chains jingling.

At this time, the surface of the lava sea rippled slightly, and the ground around it trembled gently, as if some colossal creature was slowly awakening below.

Immediately, wave after wave rapidly spread, as the lava sea seemed to be stirred by an invisible force, boiling more violently, like water at full boil.

Numerous bubbles emerged from the lava, releasing yellow sulfur vapors.

A terrifying, hideous head suddenly poked out from the churning lava, and Ye Bai immediately recognized it as the figure of the Flame Ghost!

Its skin was covered with burning black Hellfire, its body shimmering with ominous red light, eyes like two soul-piercing rubies.

The Flame Ghost’s mouth split open, revealing dagger-like fangs, each one a meter long.

From its mouth spewed rolling black smoke and sparks, a massive pressure emanating from its body.

A gigantic black shadow emerged from the lava sea, its charred claws rising from the molten sea, using a nearby copper pillar for support to clumsily stand upright.

Ye Bai noticed that the neck and limbs of this Flame Ghost were locked by red chains.

These chains emitted a golden luster, faintly drifting with inscriptions resembling ancient oracle bone script.

It struggled to endure the pain, vainly attempting to free itself from the grip of the lava.

"How did the Flame Ghost escape from the depths of the Purgatory?"

"Weren’t you supposed to monitor it regularly?"

Yan Tong’s face instantly turned dark, fully aware of the terrors the Flame Ghost held.
