Chapter 590 - 357: General, Your Time Is Up

Some readers have been asking about the placement of the extra Chapter. I, Yu, would like to apologize to everyone. That Chapter is part of a New Year’s event. It was an "assignment" that Qidian collected from me and then published officially. Because of that, the extra Chapter isn’t in my author dashboard, and I can’t do anything to change its position.

Please be patient with this, folks. The New Year is almost over, and the event will end soon. Again, I’m very sorry. T^T

「...」

A majestic ancient Ghost General, spear held ready astride its spectral steed, led the great army of the Corpse Tide as it surged forward. This apocalyptic scene was enough to give anyone a world of trouble.

In an instant, under the pitch-black sky, the shrieks and roars of Fierce Ghosts tore through the night, echoing without end.

"VMMMM!!!" That was the unique Battle Cry of the Snow General Candle, incredibly rousing!

Kill?

Then let’s kill!

Rong Taotao scooped up the Snowball Cat and thrust his left hand into the air.

"PFFT~"

An exquisite, giant hand of a Snow Ghost burst out from the snow. It cupped Rong Taotao’s body and flew straight into the sky.

"Xuerong, keep your eyes locked on the Snow General Candle. I need to meet its candle eyes the very first chance I get." Holding the Snowball Cat, Rong Taotao smoothly placed it on his head. The man and cat rose together into the night sky.

"Meow~" The Snowball Cat responded obediently. It perched on Rong Taotao’s head of naturally curly hair, its gaze locked tightly onto the imposing ancient Ghost General.

The Snowball Cat’s little paws kneaded restlessly, betraying the panic and unease it felt inside.

After all, its strengths were speed and agility. Normally, when facing such a massive Corpse Tide, it would have chosen to avoid a direct confrontation and flee. But now, it had to charge the enemy head-on, which went completely against the Snowball Cat’s nature.

But... with its master and mistress here, it suppressed its natural instinct to flee and hide.

Below, Yin Hu’s voice boomed as he roared, "Ugly Ox and Horse! A Snowy Ocean!"

"WHOOSH..."

Two men, both over two meters tall, knelt on one knee. One on the left, one on the right, they plunged their hands deep into the thick snow.

The next moment, the snow began to churn like a frantic ocean wave...

Rong Taotao immediately sensed the terrifying power of A Snowy Ocean!

’It’s not just the horror of the churning snow tide—the casting range of A Snowy Ocean is actually controllable?’

’What level of A Snowy Ocean is this?’

’If I were to cast A Snowy Ocean myself, the snow around me would inevitably churn as well, hitting our allies. Yet, Ugly Ox and Horse’s A Snowy Ocean...’

’Those two Great Gods are like snow-wave manufacturing machines. The waves rise only in front of them and surge directly forward!’

’The allies behind them, including the giant Tree Castle, weren’t affected in the slightest. It’s simply miraculous!’

Rong Taotao knew that A Snowy Ocean was a self-cultivated Soul Skill with a maximum Potential Value of five stars. ’So... does that mean once my A Snowy Ocean Soul Skill is upgraded, I’ll be able to control its direction and range too?’

"HISS..."

"ROAR!!!"

"WHIMPER... WHIMPER..." In an instant, the air filled with the endless wails and screams of Snow Corpses, mixed with the sickening sounds of bodies being buried and snapped by the churning snow!

The entire scene was as magnificent as it was brutal!

’A tide of snow versus a Corpse Tide?’

In an instant, the churning snow submerged wave after wave of Snow Corpses. However, the Corpse Tide was so immense it seemed to stretch on without end...

The Snow Corpses continued to advance, trampling over the bodies of their comrades, scrambling and crawling as they charged bravely onward. With the Snow General Candle in command, shouting orders from within their ranks, this horde of Snow Corpses seemed to truly have no fear of death!

A cowardly general breeds a cowardly army. And the reverse is also true!

"CRACK..." The sickening sound of splintering bone rang out.

A Snow Corpse had fallen into the churning river of snow. Even its incredibly powerful body was no match for the surging current!

"Mmph... mmmph..." The Palace-level A Snowy Ocean was like a Natural Disaster. Under the relentless assault of the churning waves, the Snow Corpse’s body twisted violently, its limbs bending at grotesque angles. It let out a final, muffled scream before its mouth was stuffed full of snow...

Above the river of snow, one eerie figure after another shattered into Shuangxue, drifting forward through the air.

Having temporarily shed their physical forms, the Snow Ghosts were completely unfazed by A Snowy Ocean, as they didn’t need to stand on solid ground to advance.

"WHOOSH~"

A fierce wind suddenly arose, and a massive Snow Dragon Tornado appeared. The Snow Ghosts that had already shattered into Shuangxue were simply annihilated within the blizzard, torn to shreds by the Snow Dragon Tornado!?

"Will this be the time?" Xu Yiyu muttered the strange words, her voice hidden behind the lower half of her mask, unheard by anyone.

Her right hand held a blood-red banner high, while her left hand reached out toward the tsunami-like Corpse Tide.

She wore a pitch-black mask that covered the lower half of her face, obscuring her expression, but her icy eyes revealed an endless killing intent.

It turned out that more than one person could be described as ’Crossing the Sword and Mounting the Horse’.

The blood-red banner and her chic black hair danced with a graceful rhythm in the gusting shockwaves.

Everywhere Xu Yiyu’s gaze fell, a Snow Dragon Tornado raged, annihilating countless Snow Corpses before they even had a chance to scream...

Rong Taotao had every reason to believe that these special forces soldiers, who had passed through layer upon layer of selection, were of the absolute highest caliber.

But he also knew that such courage should never be taken for granted. Not everyone, when faced with the torrent of a Corpse Tide, could stand fearless and proud before an army of thousands.
