"Discovered so quickly? But they are only a few seventh-rank beasts. Before me, they cannot stir up any waves."
As Yu Bi's cold shout fell, nine Corpse-Suppressing Nails abruptly appeared before him.
The Corpse-Suppressing Nails were about a foot long, pitch-black throughout, and densely engraved with bizarre runes finer than hair.
They were precisely his natal magic treasure.
Four of the nine Corpse-Suppressing Nails transformed into black streaks and tore through the air, each aimed at one of the four Swamp-Armored Crocodiles.
