Chapter 1039: Not much time
Sam looked at his two subordinates dealing with the necromancer ring while he mused over the technique he used earlier.
The wind technique is one of the bloodline arts of the Sky sovereign roc. The Myriad feather technique.
This technique can use the feathers directly or the feathers could be attached to projectile weapons and the most important feature of this technique is that with sufficient cultivation level, the numbers of feathers could be altered according to the user’s will.
Not just this, recently Sam realized the light elemental bloodline technique of the golden sun crow can also be altered.
As he looked at the effects of the techniques while teasing the little guy in his hands, the battle happening right below him turned extremely intense.
Tamas is currently sitting at a spot in the Necromancer ring as he closed his eyes. A bunch of shadows came from his shadow and a group of physical undead came out of his spatial ring as they swarmed throughout the necromancer ring.
By now only the soul undead came out of the necromancer ring and the remaining undead creatures are still buried a few feet under the ground, they are slowly trying to get out of the soil and start fighting, there are pitifully few shadow undead and a lot of physical undead, but the physical undead is of a large variety even with the beasts included.
Tamas started destroying each and every one of them as his undead absorbed the death energy coming from them.
Meanwhile, Night Ghost just stood there with his arms closed a few feet behind Tamas.
There are a bunch of Ghosts screaming and coming out of his body and their tails were attached to his back.
They are ripping each soul and started feasting on them.
This whole thing is carnage.
The souls from the necromancer ring are nothing more than fodder as for the undead, they didn’t even get the chance to go near Sam.
When Night Ghost was done with the souls, Sam once again moved forward on the harbinger while Night Ghost kept up with him on the ground.
Even though, but there is a barrier waiting for them that will block their entrance into the city. Sam looked at the barrier and spoke into the communication device on his ear.
“Activate the poles.”
The teammates got the order and pressed the buttons instantly.
They could see the brown earth elemental liquid energy suddenly being drained out of the container and entering the pole forcefully and then the energy entered the ground from which point a wave of an earth elemental energy moved towards the city wall which is just a few feet away.
As soon as the wave of energy clashed with the wall,
*BOOM* *BOOM*
Explosions occurred. The wave of energy exploded as soon as it touched the wall and the formation barrier was instantly destroyed.
Along with that, the wall started cracking.
The cracks spread all over the wall as if it was made of fragile glass before crashing down as a whole.
The city wall and any formations that are associated with it are completely gone.
“Enter the City.”
Sam ordered through the communication device and all the teammates entered the city instantly.
The tribe chief who looked at the current situation already sent the orders. His main focus was on Sam and Night Ghost since the start as they are the ones out in the open. But now that wall crashed and he got reports and different people are entering from different sides and particularly, when he heard about their power levels, he became a bit anxious.
He took a breath to calm himself down and looked at the whole city from the vantage point of the mansion he was in.
Even though he made a lot of preparations, he didn’t know exactly what he is preparing for.
The thing he had in mind regarding the disaster is that the young man would bring an army. So, he prepared an army with soldiers of different levels.
When he saw Night Ghost entering the city through the main entrance, he saw something unbelievable. Just from experiencing the aura of the Night Ghost, the low-level soldiers started fainting.
Now the soldiers which he thought would help him were nothing but a hindrance.
He turned around and looked at the large table which has the city’s layout and started arranging some models according to the report.
As much as Sam might be the disaster, his current focus was divided among the Night Ghost and the rest of the teammates.
“Send two of the former tribe chiefs to fight against the man with Ghosts. As for the rest of the intruders, don’t hold back. Since it is not the war with the army, send two Initial Stage Transcendent stage cultivators of the Astral Plane for each person. Kill them without holding back.
There is no point in holding back for pride and such.”
The chief ordered. Most of Sam’s teammates were Peak of Pre-transcendence in Astral Plane. So, sending two Transcendence stage cultivators is a bit of overkill, but the tribe chief didn’t want to leave a chance to others.
Sam and Night Ghost traveled openly, but the same is not true for the rest of the teammates. Except for Vidyut who immediately looked for a high vantage point and climbed a tower before taking his bow, the rest of the teammates decided to take advantage of the city’s layout.
The people that were deployed by the tribe chief, though, didn’t bother hiding and moved along the rooftops.
They are trying to cover the maximum area to find the enemies since they have an advantage in numbers.
While things are like that, Sam was also greeted with his own opponents.
At least for the rest of the team, there are two cultivators, each, but from what he could see in the front over hundred opponents are swarming towards him from various spots of the city.
Sam smiled at this and took out the swords.
Since they are on the verge of attaining spirits, this is the perfect place to speed up the process. He didn’t get off the harbinger and neither did the little guy on his shoulder leave him, he let the opponents surround him as he dove into action.
His first targets are the crossbow shooters stationed nearby.
He used the full speed of Harbinger and started cutting their heads off with a single slash. In a large crowd battle, they would be a lot of nuisance.
By the time he was done, the first wave already hit him, the Initial stage and Middle stage Pre-transcendent cultivators are all swarming towards him and most of them are on Aerial beasts.
Since these guys are considered powerful within the tribe, they are distributed on a large area throughout the city to cover all points, but Sam’s attack is straightforward and didn’t bother using any tactics, so the initial arrangement should have been advantageous became disadvantageous instead.
Sam looked at the people that are coming on the flying beasts.
If it is anyone, the beasts might have become a hindrance, but for him, they might as well be an advantage. He activated his beast bloodlines, all of them, and surrounded himself with the aura. Looking at this, the little guy on Sam’s shoulders also got excited and he also channeled his beast aura towards the upcoming beasts.
All the beasts that were rapidly flying towards Sam, stopped in their tracks and when their owners urged them to moved forward, they resisted with all they got and it took a herculean effort to just convince them otherwise and move a few feet forward, but that was enough for Sam to make a move of his own.
Sam channeled Spatial energy into the reaper sword as he zoomed towards his opponents on harbinger.
He didn’t bother to aim for any critical parts and vital points, all he did was leave a slash on their bodies mostly on their torso and the chest.
The spatial energy slash is a technique called spatial rend.
It creates a small spatial rend which creates a small pocket vacuum that tries to chaotically suck the surroundings.
Even when it misses and slashes thin air, the resulting rend might will destroy the nearest object.
Sam’s precision and the clumsy reaction of the hobgoblins because of the beasts’ misbehavior are a great combination and as the slashes landed on their bodies, they started sucking the flesh into it.
As for the executioner sword, it doesn’t need any extra enhancements, the poison that enters the victim and the corrosive effect of it is enough to deal with them.
The whole thing happened in a flash and the first wave was easily finished, the remaining soldiers are all coming towards Sam in a frenzy as they jumped over the rooftops partially destroying the city.
It could be said that all the troops of the Hob Goblins are jumping over the rooftops.
Sam waited for their arrival and turned around to take a look at the situation, Night Ghost is currently holding the two former Chiefs by their throats and dragged them as he walked forward.
Two ghosts are sucking the souls out of the Hobgoblins. Sam thought that this battle would last for a while, but from the looks of it, it wouldn’t take much time.
