Chapter 95

The battle team members of the Nine Dragon Sect, facing the flames burning in the empty pupils of the skeletal soldiers, felt as if their bodies were frozen solid. An instinctive fear dominated their minds and bodies.

'Is, is this a zombie?'

'...I've never even heard of such a monster.'

'Ugh, it's the arrival of the Grim Reaper.'

The martial artists of the Blood Sect, who had committed all sorts of cruel acts, were now huddled in fear at the sight of these bizarre monsters and the spectacle of monsters.

Tap. Tap.

Seeing this, the 60 skeletal soldiers guarding Yushinyun clicked their jawbones in delight.

'Great, now the number of skeletons I can summon will soon reach the hundred mark.'

Yushinyun, watching this, smiled with satisfaction.

His Spirit Command skill had reached S-rank, significantly increasing the number of subordinates he could summon simultaneously.

Currently, he could summon 80 skeletons, but to conserve mana, he had only summoned 60.

'No! If we keep this up, we'll lose our momentum.'

On the other hand, the leader of the Waryong Team, An Hojun, clenched his teeth. In large-scale battles, once momentum is lost, the outcome is uncertain.

He forced the energy from his dantian to rise and raised his voice.

"Don't be afraid of a bunch of dead bones! After all, our forces are much greater in number! Everyone, open your martial arts and attack!"

An Hojun's voice brought the battle team members back to their senses. Soon, the fear in their eyes disappeared, and a fierce look appeared.

Though they had been momentarily frightened by the unknown entities, as the leader said, they outnumbered the enemy by several times.

Moreover, how strong could these skull heads be?

Whoosh!

Swoosh!

"I'll kill you!"

"You monster brats! I'll cut you down in one stroke!"

With these thoughts, hundreds of battle team members rushed at the undead army and Yushinyun.

And as they watched.

'Idiots.'

Yushinyun only sent a cold sneer.

The skeletal soldiers, who were looking at the enemies rushing towards them, did not move at all. They were waiting only for their master's command.

And in the next moment.

"Kill them all, not a single one left."

Yushinyun's command was given.

Boom!

Whirlwind!

At that moment, a fierce wind swept through.

Except for the 45 skeletons forming a defensive formation around Yushinyun, the remaining 15 skeletons rushed towards the enemies, causing a whirlwind.

The battle team members, seeing the skeletal soldiers rushing towards them, could not hide their confusion.

'No, this can't be!'

'These, these monsters are using martial arts!'

The skeletal soldiers were using light techniques without missing a beat as they rushed forward.

Monsters using martial arts!

It was unheard of.

Moreover, the level of the light techniques they used was far higher than their own.

Despite their surprise, the skeletal soldiers, moving like lightning, had already reached their noses.

"Ah!"

"Ugh!"

The battle team members at the forefront groaned and tried to defend themselves with their weapons in a hurry.

Swoosh!

Crack!

Their bodies were already cut in half by the sharply honed white bone swords. A clear sword aura flickered on the blade of the bone sword.

"Aaaah!"

"Kraaaah!"

With the first death, horrific screams erupted from all over.

The 13 supreme skeletons obtained from the Blood Demon Valley and the 2 supreme skeletons obtained from the landslide site by the Strong Dragon Leader Hu Zhongguang and the Dragon Leader Ma Doying.

A total of 15 supreme skeletons began the slaughter.

The battle team members, who had charged in with great momentum, were being torn apart helplessly.

It couldn't be helped. The number of supreme experts on the Nine Dragon Sect side was significantly fewer than the skeletal soldiers.

The supreme experts of the Nine Dragon Sect were all leaders of the battle teams.

But Yushinyun had already killed 4 leaders.

Of the remaining five leaders, three were out to kill Yuziliang, leaving only An Hojun and the Minglong Leader Jing Chenghu as the supreme experts here.

'No, this can't be! Are, are all of them supreme experts?'

In this worst-case scenario, An Hojun's heart turned black. Realizing that there was no chance of winning, he decided to use his last resort.

'Damn it, there's no other way!'

He stretched out his hand towards his subordinates, who were fighting the skeletal soldiers and spilling blood.

Then, in the next moment.

Boom!

Kaboom!

They swelled up like balloons and exploded in a massive blast.

He had used the Blood Demon Skill.

However, unfortunately, one explosion was not enough to deal significant damage to the supreme skeletons with their formidable defenses.

They were only slightly charred.

But An Hojun, unaware of this, mistakenly believed it had a sufficient effect and continued to cause explosions.

Kaboom!

Kaboom!

"Aaaah! Save me!"

"I don't want to die like this!"

As the leader began to use his subordinates as expendable resources, the battle team members cursed.

Just as some were trying to escape.

Snap! Crunch!

"I'll kill anyone who tries to run first!"

An Hojun, who had already transformed into a giant mantis monster using the power of grace, beheaded and trampled the deserters.

Seeing this.

"Black Mantis... tsk, insects aren't my style."

Yushinyun only showed a reaction of disapproval.

With both the front and back blocked.

"Aaaah!"

"Die!"

The battle team members had no choice but to rush at the skeletal soldiers again.

But...

Whoosh!

Swoosh!

The skeletons, who had already learned their battle tactics, perfectly evaded all attacks and explosions, efficiently reducing the number of enemies.

As the number of battle team members face-planting on the ground rapidly increased, Yushinyun eliminated the last hope of the Nine Dragon Sect members.

Yushinyun, yawning behind the wall of skeletons, extended his hand towards the bodies of the enemies.

And he quietly muttered.

"Raise Skeleton."

Swoosh!

Crack!

As soon as he finished speaking, the battle team members saw their comrades, who had been fighting beside them moments ago, resurrect as skeletal soldiers.

"Haha!"

"Ugh, I'll kill you!"

Seeing this, the battle team members, who had finally lost their minds, laughed hollowly.

Their will to fight lost, they dropped their swords, and their heads were cleanly cut off, rolling on the ground.

'Don't call me cowardly. What can you do about my power?'

Yushinyun looked at them with no trace of sympathy.

'You damn bastards!'

And Yan Chianshi, watching Yushinyun from the window of the fifth-floor pavilion, vented his anger.

What could this guy's true identity be to interfere with him so much?

He clenched his fists so hard that blood dripped.

He wanted to go down and sweep away the enemies immediately, but time was too tight.

'More time is needed to set up the explosive walls.'

Yan Chianshi turned to the Huangshan Sect Daoists, who were trembling in fear, and spoke.

"...The Daoists must buy us some time."

The elders, including Qing Shui Daoist, turned pale and stammered.

"How... how can we deal with such monsters..."

"If the Sect Leader steps in, it will be fine, right?"

"That's right. This isn't something we can handle."

Then, Yan Chianshi, with a sinister smile, spoke in a voice as cold as ice.

"This isn't a request. It's an order."

As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful aura enveloped them, making them shiver.

The Daoists, who had received grace, felt it even more acutely. Yan Chianshi in front of them was a monster beyond their imagination.

Whether they faced the monster in front of them or Yushinyun, it would be the same.

"...We will pay the price."

With these words from Qing Shui Daoist, the six Daoists simultaneously leaped out of the window onto the battlefield.

Meanwhile, Yushinyun was delivering the final blow to the last Black Mantis.

At the tip of Yushinyun's sword, a shining ice emitted extreme cold.

The Twelve Thunder Swords technique, Shen Yun Style.

Transformation.

Cold Ice River.

The result of combining the mid-stage technique of the Twelve Thunder Swords with ice was tremendous.

The Black Mantis, which boasted a size comparable to a Basilisk, was frozen solid, turning into ice.

'Damn!'

Seeing this gruesome sight, Qing Shui Daoist's face twisted.

"Ho! So you've come down?"

Walking towards the frozen statue, Yushinyun smiled at Qing Shui Daoist.

Crack! Shatter!

With a light swing of his fist, the Black Mantis statue shattered into pieces.

Seeing the ice chunks containing flesh flying in all directions, the Huangshan Sect elders' pupils trembled as if an earthquake had struck.

"...If you thought I would be afraid of such a trick, you were mistaken."

Though equally shocked, Qing Shui Daoist suppressed his fear and spoke.

Yushinyun sneered in disdain.

"Still putting on a show."

Ching!

Grinding his teeth, Qing Shui Daoist began to pour energy into his sword, which he had drawn.

Having received the grace of the Demon God and reached the Fire Stage, he could finally use the power he had long desired.

The faint energy rising from his body became more intricate, finally forming a tangible sword blade.

However, even though it was a powerful aura based on orthodox martial arts, it overflowed with a menacing energy like that of a demonic technique.

Qing Shui Daoist, however, confidently declared.

"Behold! This is the Sword Aura!"

Seeing the powerful aura emitted by Qing Shui Daoist, the fear in the eyes of the five elders behind him disappeared.

'So! My senior has reached the Fire Stage! We can't lose!'

'Let's quickly kill that guy and receive greater rewards from the Sect Leader!'

No matter how many supreme experts there were, the Fire Stage was a world apart.

But to Yushinyun, even this was just a joke.

"Have you seen? I was right, wasn't I?"

At that moment, Yushinyun suddenly spoke to the empty air.

As Qing Shui Daoist tilted his head in confusion.

Rumble! Rumble!

Without Yushinyun uttering the incantation, a summoning array suddenly activated on its own.

At the same time, a system message appeared before Yushinyun's eyes.

[Hidden condition met.]

[Skeleton Commander, 'Moon Seizer Sword Immortal Ming Jing,' has been automatically summoned by his own will.]

[Skeleton Commander, 'Moon Seizer Sword Immortal Ming Jing,' is pouring out extreme anger.]

[All abilities of Skeleton Commander, 'Moon Seizer Sword Immortal Ming Jing,' have increased by 200%.]

[All martial arts of Skeleton Commander, 'Moon Seizer Sword Immortal Ming Jing,' have been unsealed.]

Looking at the summoning array, Yushinyun spoke in a low voice.

"Come! As promised, personally deal with this unworthy disciple, Sword Immortal."
