Chapter 17 The ever-resurrecting Yin Ghost Messenger drove the Heavenly Dou soldiers to the brink of exhaustion, terror, and eventual flight!
The battlefield was not as safe as the place where Qin Zheng and Qian Renxue were.
After the death of a nobleman.
The Yin Ghost Envoys, like desperate fugitives, charged into the Heavenly Fighting Army without hesitation, employing a life-for-life fighting style.
At the same moment, the deputy generals of the Heavenly Dou Army were also leading their troops in a charge. Several spirit rings flashed beneath their feet, and the martial spirits within their bodies surged forth, unleashing the profound soul power that raged outwards.
These lieutenants were all Soul Masters at the Soul King level!
"The nobles are all dead; we have no more worries. Charge with all our might!"
"First Soul Skill - Dark Night Claw!"
"Die!"
Without any hesitation, many people began to make their moves, their soul skills covering the surroundings. In an instant, they shattered the Yin Ghost Envoys surrounding them, which was already half a mile away. And this was already their limit!
The battle proved that the two were not far apart in strength.
The Heavenly Generals are at the Soul King level, and the Yin Ghost Envoys are all Soul Masters!
"They possess Soul Master level strength, and there's more than just one Soul Master."
"We must go all out! We cannot afford to show any weakness, or the army's morale will plummet!"
In an instant, a Heavenly Battle general at the Soul King level frowned, feeling a chilling aura within his body.
In this battle.
They were like donkeys being pushed forward, not daring to slow down their pace in slaying the Yin Ghost Messengers!
Because in this battle, they didn't actually rely on themselves, but on the Heavenly Dou Army around them; otherwise, they, as Soul King-level Soul Masters, would have been dead long ago.
At this moment, many members of the Heavenly Dou Army have already been killed. If even they show signs of defeat, it will not only be the end of the Heavenly Dou Army, but also their own!
They had never fought such an absurd battle before, but at this moment they had no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.
"Although these skeletons are individually powerful, their numbers outnumber ours, which is our advantage!"
"The victor of this battle will be rewarded with ten gold coins, the fallen with one hundred gold coins, and those who bravely kill the enemy will be granted official titles!"
"All troops, obey orders and execute the encirclement and annihilation tactics."
"kill!"
As it turns out, those who were able to serve as generals in the Heavenly Dou Empire, which had clashed with the Star Luo Empire for many years, undoubtedly possessed unique military tactics.
Using encirclement tactics at this moment is very clever.
Even the soldiers they led were mostly at level 21 to 30, only at the level of a Great Soul Master.
Even the weakest among them had just awakened and were only at the Soul Master level.
However, they were able to quickly find the turning point in this battle, using their numerical advantage to exploit the enemy's weakness, and promising a thousand pieces of gold to motivate their soldiers to fight bravely and dispel their fear.
"Yes, sir!"
Upon hearing about the rewards, the Heavenly Battle Army, which had been hesitant to advance, suddenly became as if injected with adrenaline and charged fiercely towards the Yin Ghost Envoy.
Click!
puff!
The death toll at the scene began to rise sharply.
With the intervention of Soul Kings and Soul Emperors within the Heavenly Dou Army, the Yin Ghost Envoys began to suffer massive casualties, their bones shattering and azure light instantly scattering across the sky.
But even more so, the soldiers of the Heavenly Battle Army were killed in action!
Because when each Yin Ghost Envoy dies, the remaining Yin Ghost Envoys slaughter the Heavenly Fighting soldiers and begin to revive, then pick up their scythes and wield them.
They were silent, like machines that only knew how to kill.
Every few breaths, it takes away a living life.
Blood splattered everywhere!
Life fades away!
As the carnage continued, the Heavenly Fighting Army realized that they had failed to break through the Skeleton Legion's lines and were gradually turning from an advantage to a disadvantage. Finally, someone noticed something was wrong.
"I've been scammed!"
"Who says they don't outnumber us? I've killed at least three of these, and before I could even catch my breath, new skeletons were already charging in!"
"Soul Master! The bones here still represent the strength of a Soul Master!"
"My strength hasn't changed; the skeletons here still represent the Soul Master level!"
"The skeletons here are also from the Soul Sect!?"
At this moment, some people have already been terrified by the battle, and as they watch the endless stream of Yin Ghost Messengers, whose numbers show no signs of decreasing, a deadly chill rises from deep within their tailbone.
They can't kill them all, they really can't kill them all!
"Look! These skeletons have come back to life!"
Suddenly, someone uttered these words, and all the soldiers turned their gazes toward the spot where the Yin Ghost Envoy, whom they had slaughtered to the point of being reduced to shattered bones, was now emitting faint glows.
That was a ghostly green light, the eerie glow that lingered in the eyes of the Yin Ghost Envoy!
Within this eerie green light, there seemed to be other sounds, crisp cracking sounds echoing incessantly!
Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, the skeletons began to reassemble, quickly forming once again a Yin Ghost Messenger wielding a scythe. However, this time, the Yin Ghost Messenger had completely transformed into human form!
"Your numerical advantage?" it spoke in a cold, hoarse voice, then suddenly let out a sneer, its meaning ambiguous, "Heh...is that really an advantage?"
Swah——
The next moment, it suddenly swung its scythe, creating gusts of cold wind and whipping up a terrifying rain of blood!
Beyond it, there were countless ghostly messengers, now grown flesh and blood, resurrected from hell.
After successfully feeding on human blood, they no longer need to hide.
Kill! Kill until the sky darkens and the earth is shrouded in darkness! Kill until all the traitors who rebel against the emperor are dead! Kill until the emperor's decree is issued!
To the death, we shall not rest!
【…】
At this moment, all the surviving Tiandou soldiers were so frightened that they took several steps back, their fighting spirit completely gone!
"Unkillable, absolutely unkillable!"
"These guys aren't human; they can't be killed by mortal force!"
"We really can't win!"
At this point, the entire Heavenly Dou army collapsed and was utterly defeated. After realizing that the results they had achieved at the cost of their blood were completely useless, anyone would break down!
"The ability to resurrect? How is that possible?"
In the distance, the Soul Emperor-level commander was also shocked by this scene, his eyes widening in disbelief.
Because the Yin Ghosts had been secretly resurrected in order to solidify their physical bodies, very few people noticed them. Even if they did, they were quickly surrounded and killed by the Yin Ghosts, unable to make a move.
Encirclement and annihilation tactics are not tactics known only to the officers and soldiers of the Tiandou Army.
They are ghost messengers, and they understand this too!
Now that the Yin Ghost Envoy has fully condensed his physical body and is no longer concealed, resurrected in the eyes of everyone, the Heavenly Dou Army, whose hearts had been constantly on edge, finally died completely.
Everyone was running away; the scene was in complete chaos!
In this battle, the Heavenly Dou army is already on the verge of defeat!
【…】
"Let's retreat, General!"
"We can't beat them!"
Soul King-level adjutants began to die, and the survivors started to wail. The soldiers, who were supposed to obey orders, began to issue commands to the Soul Emperor commander.
puff!
puff!
The sound of blades piercing flesh was incessant, each sound accompanied by the death of a fleeing Heavenly Dou soldier. In that short time, the original nearly 30,000 Soul Masters army was reduced to less than 10,000.
If the fighting continues, all 30,000 troops will surely perish here.
As the Heavenly General heard these sounds and watched the bloody scene unfold rapidly, his eyes turned bloodshot, and the remaining soul power within his body began to rage forth, frantically sweeping away the surrounding battlefield!
"ah!!!"
He roared furiously, like a lion driven mad, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he surveyed the city before him, and then looked up at the tallest building not far away.
"Qin Zheng!!!"
