These locusts are exceptionally cunning. After being struck by their own risk controls and driven far away, they swiftly return—not directly, but from the side—making High-Glow completely unprepared. While High-Glow is engaged in direct combat, he has yet to establish effective lateral defenses. The side is always his weakest point. Under Abaddon's signal, the one-eyed dragon has launched a decisive assault there. Currently, High-Glow faces two adversaries. How can he triumph in this dual challenge? He cannot afford to be outnumbered. Before him stand Abaddon, the toxic locust army, and the one-eyed dragon. Though the one-eyed dragon may not regard him as a serious threat, this combined pressure places High-Glow in a clearly disadvantaged position. At this moment, he cannot rely on brute force—he must outthink his opponents. "The Ever-Luminous Box! The Ever-Luminous Box!" These words surge vividly in High-Glow's mind. As the cosmic deity of light, he commands the Ever-Luminous Box freely. The equipment repository within the Yueguang Treasure Box housed numerous divine weapons and refined tools. Highliang's physical form remained in place, while his consciousness and true essence journeyed into the Yueguang Treasure Box. Gazing upon the abundance of treasures within the repository, our Highliang's eyes nearly glazed over. How could he possibly defend against the onslaught of Abaddon and the toxic locusts? As he furrowed his brows, he suddenly spotted a weapon—sulfur powder. Ah! Highliang touched his forehead and recalled the "Lake of Sulfur Fire" from the Bible—fire attack! Sulfur! Suddenly, he had it! This was the key to countering these toxic locusts. Yet, Highliang found himself at a loss, for the sulfur was in its most primitive form and lacked sufficient potency—it needed to be processed and refined. He needed to manufacture sulfur explosives—high-energy, high-explosive ones! At present, he could not produce them directly, as his physical body was still employing risk-control abilities, engaged in constant combat against the overwhelming tide of toxic locust armies. He could only sustain this effort for a maximum of five minutes. Why not have all your wives enter the Yueguang Crystal Box? This way, they will be safe, and at the same time, they can help generate high-energy sulfur explosives. The scene shifts to the combat. Zhang Yупing, Dong Jiao, Yu Ting, Yu Di, and Ying'er—now transformed into a fox by Abaddon—are in a very dangerous position, as a group of thugs under the one-eyed dragon begin to surround them. High Light's physical duel is at a critical juncture and cannot afford to divert his attention. Suddenly, several green vines descend from the sky and hang before the group of women. A voice shouts directly into their ears: "Quick! Grab the vines! Hold on tightly to me!" "Yes!" Hearing her husband's voice, the four women immediately grasp the vines. The fox also bites onto the vines. At this moment, Abaddon is issuing frantic orders: "Shoot! Shoot them down!" The thugs respond immediately, drawing their bows and arrows and firing wildly into the air. The highlighted one was annoyed—truly unforeseen, Abaddon had been so treacherous. It seemed clear that he couldn’t just sit back and wait. Physically, the highlighted one was deploying his risk-control ability, while his true form within the Yue Guang Treasure Box unleashed a fire-based ability, one honed during his confrontations with the U.S. 3K Party. Against heavyweights like "Thousand Blades Slash," "Heavenward Cannon," and "Wind, Fire, and Thunder," the highlighted one had won through wisdom and strategy. Particularly effective was his counter of "Electric Light Slash" from Longfeng Hall’s second-in-command, which melted the thousand blades, rendering them completely defenseless. This time, the highlighted one skillfully employed his fire ability, spewing a blazing stream of light from the space within the Yue Guang Treasure Box—this fire, the Light Fire—so intense that it surged directly toward the incoming arrows. The thugs were in awe. "Impossible! Impossible!" They had watched their arrows, shot into the air, instantly melt upon contact with the flame. "Oh my goodness! Oh my goodness!" "The thugs screamed in unison. It turned out that the molten iron, flowing directly from the sky, landed squarely on their bodies. At 1534°C, the iron scorched and penetrated their flesh, causing their muscles to emit a series of squeaking sounds, while a pungent, acrid odor filled the air. As the Dragon with One Eye prepared to launch an attack on Gao Liang's robust form, the Frenchman with the long legs suddenly kicked powerfully at Gao Liang's waist—just as a drop of molten iron struck precisely on the Dragon's toe. The intense heat of the 1534°C iron instantly rendered the Dragon's foot useless. 'Oh! My goodness!' he cried, halting mid-air and crashing down with a solid thud. A narrow escape—just three centimeters short of Gao Liang's body. The several beautiful women in the air felt a surge of pride and satisfaction. Seeing his subordinates falter, Abaddon grew furious and unleashed a wave of more toxic locusts toward the Yue Guang Treasure Box. Gao Liang, swift and alert, quickly pulled several of the women into the space of the Yue Guang Treasure Box. A sharp *whoosh*, and the main door of the Yue Guang Bao He space closed tightly. The toxic locusts tapped steadily upon the space, but fell one by one as they approached within one meter—how could the Yue Guang Bao He, a sacred artifact of the universe, allow such pests to draw near? Guang Liang’s physical form could now only withstand the next four minutes. Guang Liang immediately issued the command: "Quick! Ladies! This is a schematic for sulfur production! Follow the operating procedures and help prepare it!" He gave the order right away. The situation demanded immediate action. Zhang Yупing, Dong Jiao, Chen Yuting, and Yu Di all became busy, and even the adorable little fox, tail swaying, joined in. Guang Liang felt deeply moved. He knelt down, touched the little fox’s head gently, and said, "Ying'er! Don’t worry—my husband will find a way to restore you to your true form!" The little fox continuously bobbed its head, a clear nod of agreement. "This sulfur-based high-energy explosive requires very precise preparation! Be sure to pay close attention to the mixing process!" Several of the beautiful wives really moved quickly! Together, they worked as a team, pooling their efforts. ZHANG Yuping took charge of gathering all the materials needed to produce sulfur-based high-explosive compounds, while CHEN Yuting carefully divided them into precise portions according to the required ratios. Because both ZHANG and CHEN were exceptionally attentive, the quality of the final explosive compounds was fundamentally ensured. DOG Jiao used specially designed tools to crush and blend the synthesized components, a physically demanding task that soon left her drenched in sweat. GAO Huang reached for a clean handkerchief and gently wiped her sweat, deeply moved by the gesture. As for YU Di, she was responsible for packaging—carefully bundling and securing the finished products. Since these were high-energy sulfur explosives, each batch had to be properly packed and tied. The nimble little fox, with her keen sense of observation, conducted the final quality checks on the produced explosives. For non-conforming products, they are directly handed over to Gaoang, who then implements immediate corrections and adjustments. Through collective efforts and the power of unity, soon packages of high-energy sulfur explosives are produced.
