Death… and me

Chapter 1286: Wipe Your Ass

It turned out that the gap she found was open because the enemy's commander redirected some of the ranged cultivators through the sides, using the chaos to hide their movement. When she took that gap, she also created a gap in her own forces.

It was then that a loud voice echoed from afar. "Hahaha! Vigal trash, even if our army is made up of ranged attackers, we're definitely more than enough to stop you! We can't win against your forces, but you can forget about ever getting close to our defense line. We saw right through your plans, idiots!"

Tixa knew the guy was right. In the end, getting rid of the enemies from the front and rear would take too long, which was more than enough for the enemy to reorganize their forces and protect their main defense line. All she could do now was to get rid of as many ranged cultivators as possible before retreating. Unfortunately, it was far, far from the results she desired. She might even get punished since the Vigal Forces had to launch a forced attack that caused many casualties. 

However, just as she was about to change her strategy…

*Boom!*

The battle changed once again.

"Lousy! That's what both your strategies are. It's so easy to read your thoughts," a voice said soon after, coming from behind the Jesvo Army group attacking Tixa's forces. If Tixa didn't know how Jesvo appeared behind her division, let alone know how they appeared behind that offensive force.

A big dome of darkness soon spread, covering that team that attacked the rear of Tixa's group. Naturally, that was Roan. Inside his Death World, only those he wished to would see what was happening. The rest could only rely on their other senses.

Roan's scythe, which was already covered in blood from cutting through the enemies, was soon brandished in a huge arc.

'Death Style, Second Form, Crescent Moon!'

A huge wave of Dark Element came forward, followed by all of Roan's forces. It was almost impossible to defend against that.

*Arrrrgh!*

*Boom, boom, boom…*

*swish, swish, swish…*

Corpses fell one after another like torrents. In just a few seconds, hundreds of the enemy forces attacking Tixa's rear group died. Only those with high cultivation, those at the Late Stage of the Saint Realm and above, were able to defend somehow.

Then again, that was a good thing for Roan.

'Death Style, Fifth Form, Mirage Assault!'

'Death Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!'

'Death Style, Fourth Form, Soaring Dragon!'

Rean and Roan were right in the end. Their strength, when compared to average cultivators, was higher than an entire realm. Roan specifically attacked those at the Elemental Transformation Realm while using his companions as cover. Inside his Death World, they had little time to react, especially when they were targeted by others. In Roan's mind, they weren't living beings but statues filled with War Points.

Tixa, obviously, wouldn't let such a chance pass up. "Charge! The gap is already open, so pierce through and take down a section of their defense line!"

Roan snorted in response, 'At least she knows when to use an opportunity to her advantage.'

Nevertheless, Roan didn't follow her. According to his thoughts, she had more than enough strength to open the gap in the enemy's left wing defense line for the Vigal Army's main forces to exploit. Instead, he considered this to be a great place to farm War Points. There were many ranged cultivators here, and they were all close to each other. This was a terrible situation for them, so how could he let the chance pass by?

Roan's companions were ecstatic as well. Inside Roan's Death World, they could move freely. Not only that, but when they separated themselves from Tixa at first, Roan's hair color changed into a mix of Dark and White. Out of nowhere, they felt the strength of their bodies increase by a lot, which helped even more. Life Style, Fifth Form, Light Aura Burst!

That was Rean's Enhancement skill, but now affecting a certain range. It wasn't as good as using the Second Form directly by touching someone. But just like the sixth form, Healing Aura, it could reach many cultivators at once. That, combined with Roan's Death World, made his small group of fifty a killing machine.

*Boom!*

"There's a gap in the Jesvo Army's defense line!"

"Tixa did it!"

"Assault divisions, charge!"

"Don't lose this chance!"

Tixa's group, which was surrounded by Jesvo Army's forces, immediately saw the situation change. Her Vigal Army forces swarmed inside the gap in the defense line, passing through her division and increasing the gap even more. Not long after, the defense line collapsed, and the Jesvo Army's left wing began to receive huge casualties. 

The enemy's left wing commander gritted his teeth and did the only logical action after that.

"Retreat! Retreat now!"

Of course, the assault of the Vigal Army became even more merciless due to that, trying to cut down as many enemies as possible before they fully retreated. In just an hour, over two hundred thousand cultivators from Jesvo died before their forces finally succeeded in retreating. 

Only then did Tixa remember Roan's group that stayed behind. "Shit!"

She quickly returned to where she had last seen Roan and the others, just to see 42 cultivators sitting on the ground, recovering their Divine Energy. They were all covered in blood from head to toe, which wasn't anything rare in this war. Nevertheless, they didn't look sad at all. If anything, there were a few smiles in there. They knew that they got a huge amount of War Points with this single attack alone. Much, much more than they could ever expect. It was all thanks to Roan.

Of course, their group had 50 cultivators at first. However, as impressive as Roan's Light Aura Burst, Death World, and commanding abilities were, casualties would still appear. The fact that only eight died there was already a miracle in their eyes. 

Roan noticed that Tixa returned and was looking at him before saying, "You're very good at moving silently, I will admit that. But your ability to command is pure dogshit. You fell for their trick exactly as I predicted.. Pay more attention next time since I might not be there to wipe your ass."
