Chapter 579: Chapter 9: Ghost Shadow Trouble, Divine General Shows Might

Hidden Moon Following Wind (Demon Refiner) Level 30, Life Value: 690.

Liu Qiang’s heart surged with irritation at the sight of the name that flashed by.

To think that in just a few days, the opponent had already reached Level 30; what kind of leveling speed was this?

Such desperate leveling, what could it be for? That goes without saying...

Liu Qiang’s heart couldn’t help feeling uneasy. He wished he had eliminated him earlier, even at the cost of offending the Game Administration Bureau.

If he lets him develop for a few more days, who knows what might happen.

Liu Qiang tried to reassure himself. It doesn’t matter, he’s just reached Level 30, meaning the abilities of his third-tier profession are not yet fully developed. It shouldn’t be difficult for me to take him down now.

Moreover, this brat is actually one of the Dragon Soaring Knights, just perfect to take the opportunity to kill him.

"Ah Gui, what are you waiting for? Take out Hidden Moon Following Wind for me!"

He shouted loudly, but the person called Ah Gui seemed to be deaf to his words, silently manipulating the keyboard icon, searching for opportunities through the screen.

"Ah Gui!"

"Liu Qiang, I am the guild leader here. Ah Gui, just fight normally, no rush."

"Hehe, right, right, you’re the guild leader." Liu Qiang chuckled dryly, thinking it won’t be long until you’re not.

His gaze shifted aside. "Zhao Kai, if things don’t work out with Ah Gui’s side, go support them immediately!"

This time Zhao Qingyun did not stop him. Given the current situation, indeed intervention was necessary.

With Zhao Qingyun’s silent consent, Zhao Kai bellowed, "Brothers, follow me!"

With that call, dozens of cavalry rushed out from the forest towards Luoxue Valley.

And on the east side of Luoxue Valley, Longteng Sihai, who had been secretly observing, also grimaced, "The other side has made a move; let’s go too—Listen to Dragon Roar, stay here and support us from long-range. Bai Ze and San Miao, you two stay as well, the rest follow me!"

The three mages were left behind; the remaining Generals, Martial Saints, Heroes, and Sword Masters mounted their horses and charged toward the valley.

Meanwhile, inside the tunnel—

Wind Roll Cloud!

A swing of the blade swept past, instantly slaying two assassins with low blood volume. Xiao Jie felt no pity or reluctance in his heart. Anyone daring to join the battle must be prepared to die.

Since he was prepared himself, he naturally didn’t care about the life and death of his enemies.

Looking around, six out of nine assassins had been killed, and the remaining three were fleeing in a flustered state.

Is this all you have? Xiao Jie sneered. The Azure Dragon Association dares to challenge Dragon Soaring with this level of strength, too arrogant.

Pfft—"Ah!"

Just as Dragon’s Illusion killed the seventh assassin, a ghostly shadow suddenly emerged behind him.

Silent and dark as a shadow, Xiao Jie wondered for a moment if it was a special skill used by Dragon’s Illusion.

Until the ghost shadow’s name appeared above.

Prosperous (Ghost Shadow Assassin) Level 38, Life Value 740.

It’s an enemy!

Ghost Curse—Ghostly Eye Cover!

Dragon’s Illusion’s screen turned black in an instant.

"What! There’s another master!" Startled, Dragon’s Illusion did not panic. As a core member of the Dragon Soaring Knights, having top-level Equipment Skills, he naturally had experience in dealing with such control situations.

Purification Talisman!

A flash of white light, and the screen was restored instantly.

He saw the Dual Blades slashing at him head-on.

Combat Skill—Mantis Que Yue!

-52! -55 (poisoned)!

Not only poisoned but also a slight stun had occurred.

The assassin’s Attack Speed was extremely fast, and a slight stun was enough to put oneself at a complete disadvantage in a swordfight, and what’s worse, he was poisoned with a slowing poison.

He must break free before he could fight back.

Naturally, he would not stay and wait for death.

Assassin’s Step! A sidestep maneuver had him flashing far away instantly.

Mysterious Steps! The opponent also moved mysteriously in pursuit, perfectly sticking to him.

A normal attack to catch the rhythm, followed by a Chain Slash. Double Blade Chain came in a succession.

Pff pff pff! Blood Volume continued to drop.

Such high damage! Dragon’s Illusion had no choice but to use Skills to gain the rhythm.

Instant Body Method! Instantly appearing behind the opponent.

Combat Skill—Enhanced Backstab!

But Prosperous turned into an ethereal ghost form at that moment, Dragon’s Illusion’s stab hit nothing but air.

The opponent suddenly turned around, returning to a solid state while lashing out with a palm—Heart-shattering Palm!

These three actions were completed almost in an instant. Dragon’s Illusion, whose guard was down, was hit directly in the chest, causing his whole body to tremble.

-108 (Internal Injury)!

It’s over! Despair flashed through Dragon’s Illusion’s mind, as internal injury slowed the casting speed of all Inner Strength Skills. He was already caught in a flaw by his opponent, getting such an injury now was fatal.

If it was just a normal enemy, it wouldn’t be so bad, but with an opponent of this caliber, this slight delay could be lethal.

High-level movement techniques nearly all relied on Inner Strength, this delay meant all his body movement skills would get interrupted by the opponent in advance.

And his secret technique also required Inner Strength. His Ultimate Skill could be easily read by the opponent.

But he had no choice, his Life Value was almost depleted.

Advanced Body Technique—Divine Stepping Wind Style! Pushing off the ground with his back foot, Dragon’s Illusion seemed to be about to take off with the wind.

Combat Skill—Gale One Slash! However, the sword light from Prosperous arrived first, slashing down directly at Dragon’s Illusion’s Platinum Crystal.

Before Dragon’s Illusion could take off, Prosperous’s fierce slash had already descended.

It’s finished! Dragon’s Illusion lamented, nearly visualizing the scene of beheading.

The next second, a figure appeared in front of him without warning. It was Xiao Jie cutting into the battle with Phantom Traceless, followed by Lying Tiger Stone Form!

Clang! The blade struck the stone form of Xiao Jie, and was fiercely repelled.

Xiao Jie instantly canceled Lying Tiger Stone Form and slashed at Ah Gui head-on.

One Cut, Two Pieces!

Ghostly Soul Embodiment!

Ah Gui, once again assuming nihility form, evaded the blade that slashed down upon him, cutting through empty air.

This ghost form, though incapable of physical attacks, retain the ability to cast ghost curses.

Ah Gui lifted his hand towards Xiao Jie—Evil Ghost Possession!

Immune! A white word popped up above Xiao Jie’s head.

Huh? Ah Gui was also taken aback. He had seen plenty of curse-breaking abilities, but it was the first time he witnessed a direct immunity.

As Ah Gui’s ghost form faded, Xiao Jie attacked once again, opting for a spell to prevent the opponent from using his ghost form a second time.

Horror Face!

As long as the opponent is thrown into a state of fear, a combo can be chained.

However—Immune! The same white word emerged above Ah Gui’s head, now it was Xiao Jie’s turn to be surprised.

This guy is a bit tricky.

If spells don’t work, then I’ll just have to chop you down.

Helical Slash—sweeping leg—One Slash Two Breaks Air Split Flash! Xiao Jie unleashed a perfect chain of varied moves.

Mysterious Steps—Hawk Roll—Ghostly Soul Embodiment! Ah Gui also perfectly countered.

Using the Ghostly Soul Embodiment to dodge the Sword Wind, he immediately activated his Big Move.

Secret Technique—Seven Kills Absolute Shadow! Instantly transforming into seven black phantoms, he arrayed around Xiao Jie in seven different attack stances.

Xiao Jie was unfazed—Phantom Traceless!

In an instant, he flashed out of the circle, leaving behind an afterimage in a defensive stance. He planned to retaliate once the opponent’s Ultimate Skill was wasted.

Unexpectedly, the seven phantoms burst and vanished simultaneously.

Huh? Xiao Jie turned around to see Ah Gui and another assassin swiftly escaping through a distant tunnel.

"Damn, have the guts to not run!" Dragon’s Illusion roared in frustration, having just restored his Blood Volume, the near-death experience had truly shaken him.

It’s good that teammates were around this time, otherwise...

"Humph, if you’re capable, catch up," Ah Gui yelled without looking back, continuing to flee.

He was not foolish; once the initial advantage was lost, and with that unknown Demon Refiner with some weird Profession whose ghost curses had no effect, it was better to withdraw for now.

Xiao Jie was also somewhat surprised; this opponent was quite formidable, and his own Sound Recognition had failed to detect him earlier—that Ghostly Soul Embodiment ability was practically a bug.

Seems like a Hidden profession as well...

But now that only two of them were left, it was a good opportunity to take down the enemy.

"Chase!" The trio rapidly pursued.

Yet, the opponents were surprisingly faster than all three of them, zooming through the tunnel; the other assassin, although slower, managed to follow and witnessed both escaping through the cave entrance.

What surprised Xiao Jie was that when the trio emerged from the crack, those two didn’t flee but instead waited not far from the cave entrance.

They didn’t run? Xiao Jie’s puzzlement soon found an answer. Behind those two on the snowy plains, dozens of cavalry were charging towards them.

Prosperous: "My reinforcements have arrived."

Xiao Jie gave a slight smile; hoofbeats approached from behind him as well.

"Heh, my reinforcement is also here."

The two sides faced each other three against two, with reinforcements daring to come for both sides. Xiao Jie’s side obviously had fewer reinforcements, only eighteen cavalry, while the Azure Dragon Association, despite losing some assassins, still had over thirty men.

Liu Qiang watched carefully from behind: "We have more people, speed up, and take them down!"

Leading the team, Zhao Kai also harbored the same plan; the enemy was not just fewer in numbers but their formation was also visibly scattered. A loose horizontal array with just over a dozen people was an excellent opportunity for them to be encircled and slaughtered.

"Don’t slow down—Kill!"

And on the other side, the leader of Longteng Sihai couldn’t help but smirk.

Hehe, think you can win by sheer numbers? Let’s show them what true might is.

Longteng Sihai violently waved his iron spear—Heed my command—come out, Gale Knights!"

Other generals waved their weapons as well.

"Heed my command, come out, iron armor heavy cavalry."

"Heed my command, come out, Gray Wolf Cavalry."

"Heed my command, come out, Gale Knights!"

"Heed my command, come out, Long Spear Cavalry!"

Twelve Third Transformation generals, besides Longteng Sihai who could only summon one cavalry due to being a Divine General, and two other Unrivaled Generals who could also only summon one each.

The remaining nine generals each summoned four cavalrymen, making a total of thirty-nine, and the charge instantly grew from eighteen to over fifty riders.

The Heavy Cavalry, gun cavalry in front, their long spears, and iron spears presented, rolling like a moving wall, crushing forward.

The members of the Azure Dragon Association were dumbfounded, visibly faltering, as everyone knew that being at the front in such times meant being the first to fall.

Especially the experts from the Vassal Guilds, who silently slowed down,

"Don’t be scared, they’re just a rabble of soldiers!" Zhao Kai, stuck between a rock and a hard place, knew retreating now would mean collapse.

With his ability, ordinary soldiers were indeed just a rabble.

Heavenly Gang Battle Energy!

Dharma Golden Body!

Heavenly God Possession!

In an instant, triple buffs activated, and Zhao Kai burst forth with blinding Divine Light, engulfed by a storm-like aura, his size ballooning massively, with his steed proportionately growing beneath him.

Like a Heavenly God descending, he charged at the forefront of the team.

A Divine General?—You think you’re the only ones with one?

Longteng Sihai opened all his skills too.

Heavenly Gang Battle Energy!

Dharma Golden Body!

Heavenly God Possession!

His size increased multiple folds.

The two Divine Generals, one brandishing a large blade, the other an iron spear, charged at each other, their cavalry and players following like waves crashing into each other.
