Chapter 1593: Skeleton Soldiers

Xia Liuhui, Liang Zhuangmin, Jiang Qi, Min Rourou, Wu Zhijun, and several other Sacred Deer Academy disciples were the ones hesitating. The strongest among them was Jiang Qi, but her cultivation was only at peak fifth-stage Heaven Battling Realm. The rest of them were considerably weaker than her. It did not seem likely that they would be able to get through the opening in the sky.

If the elders of their academy were willing to lend them a hand, they would have a much easier time. However, the elders had their hands full taking care of themselves. Thus, they couldn’t provide them with any help. When Xiang Shaoyun noticed them, he walked over, preparing to bring them with him.

“Boss(Shaoyun)!” Xia Liuhui and Liang Zhuangmin called out in joy.

It had been several years since they last saw Xiang Shaoyun. They had known that he would definitely take part in a grand occasion like this. Their guess was reaffirmed when they met Xiang Shaoyun.

“Come on. Let’s talk after entering,” said Xiang Shaoyun as he enveloped them in a layer of energy before rushing toward the opening.

The people behind Xiang Shaoyun also hurriedly followed him. These people were strong enough to enter by themselves and did not require his assistance. When they approached the spatial currents, Xiang Shaoyun casually waved his hands and swept aside the currents, opening a clear path for them. The group was able to get through without suffering any injuries.

“Haha, with Boss here, things sure are much easier,” said Xia Liuhui in joy.

“We have been working really hard, but we still can’t keep up with Shaoyun,” lamented Liang Zhuangmin.

After several years, they had matured even more than before. With their Saint Realm cultivation, all of them emanated extraordinary temperaments. They were at a similar age as Xiang Shaoyun. For them to reach the Heaven Battling Realm at such an age, their talent was evident.

After going through the opening, they arrived in a place covered in a primordial aura. When everyone looked around, they found themselves surrounded by a desolate mountain range. No living beings could be seen around them, as though the group had arrived at a land of death. This did not seem like the fabled ancient battlefield they had heard of.

“Is this really the ancient battlefield? Were we lied to?” muttered Xia Liuhui as he rubbed his head in disbelief.

“The more peaceful a place seems, the more dangerous the place might be. We need to be even more cautious,” said Liang Zhuangmin.

“Look, those fellows are vanishing into thin air!” Yu Caidie suddenly said, pointing in one direction.

Everyone looked over, and sure enough, several figures were vanishing right before their eyes as though those people were never here.

Xiang Shaoyun’s eyes flickered as he said, “Our enemies have appeared. The non-humans over there have activated an illusory formation. If we go over there, things will probably be bad for us.”

“An illusory formation? No wonder. Looks like the non-humans are quite scary,” said Liu Qingchen.

“Stick with me,” said Xiang Shaoyun with a nod.

There were almost 40 people in their group, including the Overlord Legion and Xia Liuhui’s group. Their force was nothing if one considered the scope of the Heaven Battling Realm experts participating in the competition. Xiang Shaoyun felt obligated to help his companions stay alive.

When he swept his gaze around, he saw numerous remnant souls of alien races. Those souls were extremely powerful and were capable of possessing some corpses before attacking. There were also some living aliens concealed at different positions, stalking the humans. They waited for a chance to consume the humans alive, like wolves who had been starved for hundreds of years.

Xiang Shaoyun first focused his eyes toward a group of possessed corpses that were hiding underground. Others might not notice the corpses, but they couldn’t escape Xiang Shaoyun’s eyes.

“Everyone, spread out and watch each other’s backs. Follow my command,” said Xiang Shaoyun.

There was no doubting his prestige. Under his command, everyone hurriedly scattered in an orderly formation before releasing their senses to scan their surroundings.

They advanced for a short while before Xiang Shaoyun’s next command came, “Attack the ground. The enemies have arrived.”

None of them were slow to act as they bombarded the ground. Sure enough, several skeletons appeared from the ground. The heads of these skeletons seemed to pulse with the power of remnant souls. These skeletons were clearly preparing to attack Xiang Shaoyun’s group.

But since Xiang Shaoyun’s group had attacked first, the skeletons were quickly blasted apart before they could do anything. These skeletons weren’t too strong, so they weren’t able to last too long against the group. As they fought, their jade slips shone, recording their kills in the battlefield. It was clear that these possessed skeletons were one of their targets. Everyone looked pleased after obtaining some points so easily.

“Don’t get too happy yet. Be careful. An army of skeletons is heading our way. I can also sense some living aliens controlling the army,” reminded Xiang Shaoyun.

Sure enough, a large number of skeletons appeared and charged toward them. The skeletons were not only large in number but also rather formidable.

“It has been many years since any humans have entered. All of you shall become my food,” a piercing voice rang out.

Apart from Xiang Shaoyun, nobody could sense where that voice came from.

“This might be a good place to temper ourselves. Everyone, go crazy,” said Xiang Shaoyun with a smile.

He couldn’t protect them forever. In that case, he might as well allow them to further temper themselves and gain more understanding of the cruelty of this ancient battlefield.

“How can some skeleton soldiers be our match? Break!” roared Xia Liuhui confidently as he swung both his arms, unleashing the powers of flame and water. The two powers came together, creating and unleashing a powerful fusion skill upon the skeletons.

At the same time, Liang Zhuangmin stepped forth, activating the profundity of earth before throwing a stone fist at the skeletons. Every one of them displayed their own techniques as they fought the skeletons.

Individually, the skeletons weren’t too strong. Their advantage was their numbers and the few Heaven Battling Realm skeletons among them that would be slightly troublesome to deal with.

As for the skeletons aiming for Xiang Shaoyun, they weren’t able to pose any threat to him. In fact, he couldn’t even be bothered to act against them. Instead, he pointed and sent a finger beam toward the distant hill. The beam was powered by the energies of flame and lightning. It was incredibly destructive, instantly causing the hill to crumble apart, revealing a certain figure before everyone’s eyes.
