Otherworldly Skeleton Evolution

“Knights, raise shields! Yun Long, defense scrolls!”

“Yun Hu, be ready with healing scrolls when overall health drops by 30%.”

“Yun Gao, mana recovery scrolls.”

The moment the battle began, only Yun Xiang’s voice could be heard on Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers’ guild channel.

As the big sister of the Shanhe Club, Yun Xiang also doubled as the commander.

After all, if they let the Fist Sage command, he probably wouldn’t be able to utter a single word.

“Archers, mages, find a breakthrough point. Follow the Blade Masters’ attack trajectory to break the encirclement. Wherever the Blade Masters attack, mages and archers concentrate your fire there.”

“This is Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers’ first battle, and our opponent is the number one guild, the Temple. Everyone must give it their all and follow my commands!”

“Yes!”

“Yes!”

“12 o’clock, straight ahead. All knights synchronize, priests cast buff skills!”

At Yun Xiang’s command, forty knights led by Yun Yin stepped out from the formation. Wielding long spears, they charged straight towards Xie Changkong’s Changkong Sword Group.

Simultaneously, countless buff skills shimmered above the heads of all forty knights.

The Temple’s side, of course, understood Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers’ intentions and immediately organized their mages to concentrate fire.

*Boom!*

*Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!*

Countless ice, snow, flames, and entangling roots bombarded Yun Yin and his comrades.

Although the Temple’s experts’ equipment couldn’t match those top-tier players, their overall equipment strength was certainly superior to Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers.

So when their mages’ skills hit Yun Yin and his team, their health bars instantly plummeted.

However, the priests and mages on Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers’ side were no pushovers.

Although Yun Yin’s health bar dropped to the bottom in an instant, it was immediately filled back up in the same moment.

Meanwhile, Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers’ mage and archer teams began to focus their attacks on the Temple players in front of Yun Yin, constantly bombarding them to relieve the pressure on Yun Yin and his team.

Before the two sides even made direct contact, the Temple’s side, not being in guild mode and relying only on party mode, found their priests unable to heal guild members. In an instant, 113 of them died.

In contrast, on Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers’ side, the knight team led by Yun Yin, with a 20% overall boost from defense and attack scrolls, along with timely healing from the priest team and pressure relief from the mage and archer teams, didn’t lose a single member.

Moreover, with the knight team lined up in a row, blocking the opponents from bombarding the mages and archers behind them, the mages and archers could output at full power without fear.

“Well done. 11 o’clock direction, archers and mages, pick them off!”

“All mages, Blizzard!”

*Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!*

At Yun Xiang’s command, 72 Frost Soul Mages simultaneously raised their staffs.

In an instant, the Temple players led by Yue Xia Duzhuo, one of Changkong Sword Group’s top experts, suffered a merciless slaughter.

72 Blizzards covered a ten-meter radius, with over 20 Blizzard skills in each meter.

As the dense ice and snow fell, Yue Xia Duzhuo’s charging figure hadn’t even reacted before he was instantly killed.

“Aaaaaaahhhhh!”

His teammates behind him also let out screams of agony at the same time, disappearing in flashes of light!

A large empty space was instantly cleared, leaving only various shimmering potions and equipment on the ground.

“Something’s not right. Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers’ overall strength has increased! Their damage is definitely off!”

Seeing Yue Xia Duzhuo die miserably before his eyes, Mingyue Qingfeng’s face turned pale.

Their entire Temple had only one Resurrection spell, and its cooldown time was one hour.

Yue Xia Duzhuo was beyond saving.

Although he only lost one level, the blow to the Temple was absolutely fatal.

Where the hell did Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers get their equipment? Why did their damage suddenly become so high?

It was too bizarre!

“Brothers, everyone use single-target skills. Pick them off one by one!”

Although the Temple outnumbered Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers by 5 times, without guild mode, they clearly couldn’t fight as freely as Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers.

The battle was particularly tough for them.

On one hand, they were afraid of friendly fire, and on the other, their health couldn’t keep up with the bombardment from the enemy mage team.

The attacks on the enemy knights hadn’t been effective either. Many times, they saw the knights about to die, only for priests to fully heal them the next moment.

Add to that the chaos of the battlefield and the difficulty in locking onto targets with spells, making it hard for them to hit their marks.

However, under Mingyue Qingfeng’s orders, after a round of wild bombardment, some of Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers’ knights finally couldn’t hold on and were killed, sent back to the city.

A gap appeared in the knight team, and Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers couldn’t patch it in time.

Suddenly, Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers experienced a small defeat.

But as the Blade Master team stepped up from behind the knights, like a sharp knife piercing into the Temple’s formation, they began to slaughter the Temple players. In a moment, the Temple’s side lost over 300 players.

However, this also meant that Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers’ formation was broken. Without knights shielding the front, the mage and archer teams began to suffer huge casualties.

In an instant, the overall health of the mage and archer teams dropped significantly under the Temple players’ attacks!

“Priests, heal the mages and archers. Use healing scrolls to keep up!”

At Yun Xiang’s command, Yun Yin activated a healing scroll, increasing everyone’s health by 20%, saving many lives.

In comparison, the Temple’s side suffered much heavier losses.

Their mage team wasn’t completely wiped out, but they suffered the onslaught of the Blade Master team, and the summons from the Undead Mages disrupted their vision, causing the Temple to suffer huge casualties again.

In just thirty seconds, the Temple lost over 700 players.

The dense Blizzards left only devastation in their wake.

Seeing this situation, Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers’ players’ morale soared!

At this rate, they had hope of killing all the Temple’s players!

*Clang!*

As a flame-like sword energy flashed by, Yun Yin, who was at the forefront, suddenly paused.

Seven lightning-like sword lights flashed, and Yun Yin’s health bar instantly hit bottom, was fully restored in a split second, and then dropped to the bottom again.

*Boom!*

Then, Yun Yin’s purple silk horse collapsed with a thunderous sound.

“Xie Changkong has entered the fray. Yun Yin is dead!”

Yun Xiang’s face changed.

Amidst the chaotic battle, Xie Changkong led his Changkong Sword Group into action. With his lightning-fast seven slashes per second, he took out Yun Yin.

This kind of killing move could easily disrupt Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers’ rhythm.

Although Yun Xiang was the overall commander, small teams also needed leaders who could direct them where to attack, preventing situations where attacks had little effect.

But with Yun Yin’s death, the knight team was left in a somewhat confused state.

Without someone taking over, the knight team could easily fall into disarray.

Before she could give a command, Yun Zhi, the leader of the priest team, also died!

“Master, quickly snipe Xie Changkong, or we’re in trouble.”

The advantage they had fought so hard for was instantly reversed by Xie Changkong’s intervention.

This made Yun Xiang extremely anxious.

Unfortunately, the Fist Sage was currently being targeted by a large group of Temple players. Although he had killed 27 experts with his thunderous methods, the endless stream of players rushing at him left him no time to worry about this side.

Although after the engagement, the Temple’s side had lost over 3,000 players, suffering heavy casualties, players pouring out from the Killing God Mountain Range immediately joined the battle.

This meant Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers simply couldn’t kill them fast enough.

The scales of victory had begun to tip towards the Temple’s side.

Even the Fist Sage couldn’t turn the tide.

“Sometimes, numbers can easily determine the outcome of a battle.”

Three minutes later, the Fist Sage’s side was left with only about a hundred people. Of the Nine Rivers of Shanhe, only Yun Xiang and Yun Long remained, all others had fallen!

While the Temple’s side had lost 4,321 players, they still had over ten thousand players joining the battle.

“Master, it looks like we can only die and go back. It’s a bit frustrating that in this first battle since establishing our guild, we didn’t even see the Boss. Tomorrow’s forums will surely be full of criticism about Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers.”

Yun Long looked at the Fist Sage guiltily, “I’m sorry, Master. We nine have disgraced you.”

The Fist Sage smiled nonchalantly, “It’s not your fault. Sometimes, the power of an individual is hard-pressed to change the course of battle.”

“Old He, I’m glad you can recognize this reality,” Xie Changkong stopped others from attacking Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers and said to the Fist Sage triumphantly,

“Even the Demon Palace of the past would find it difficult to withstand our Temple’s might. Your Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers is nothing more than a stumbling block on the Temple’s road to becoming the king.”

“The strength of a thousand can hardly resist an army of ten thousand, let alone an individual.” Xie Changkong smiled slightly, looking at the Fist Sage with the posture of a victor.

“That depends on who that individual is.”

Suddenly, on a hillside, the silhouette of a white horse appeared, attracting everyone’s attention.

“Are you done? It’s my turn.”
