Chapter 595: Epic Battle

SWISH! Gao Lingwei gripped her Heaven-piercing Halberd, her long legs tensed like a cheetah’s as her figure shot forward!

The sharp Snow Halberd instantly pierced the skull of a Snow Corpse.

Talk about a precision strike!

Having trained in Gorge 0, Gao Lingwei knew how to kill in one blow. Piercing a Snow Corpse’s skull wasn’t the true killing move; on this chaotic battlefield, you could see Snow Corpses everywhere with half their heads lopped off, yet still fighting vigorously.

The real killing blow was to stab out the Soul Pearl from within the Snow Corpse’s head!

The Snow Corpses Gao Lingwei attacked almost never got back up. The speed of her slaughter was simply astonishing, especially since the Snow Corpses’ offensive methods were limited, relying only on their sharp teeth and claws.

And Gao Lingwei was wearing Master-rank Iron Snow Armor; the Snow Corpses and Ghosts couldn’t even break through her defense!

Back in Gorge 0, Gao Lingwei had deliberately increased the difficulty for herself by not using her Iron Snow Armor. But now?

At a life-or-death moment, of course she would keep her Iron Snow Armor active at all times.

“You want to die too.” Gao Lingwei’s lunging-thrust posture hadn’t changed, but she abruptly turned her head to look at a Snow Ghost charging at her from the side.

A patterned mask instantly formed on her face. The charging Snow Ghost beside her suddenly saw the terrifying Frost Fearful Face and its movements actually faltered for a moment?

This was a battle of life and death!

‘How dare you get distracted!?’

‘If you dare get distracted, I dare send you on your way!’

“Then go,” Gao Lingwei muttered, her tone completely flat and devoid of inflection, yet carrying a chilling killing intent. A thick aura of Death Qi emanated from her body.

Clearly, Gao Lingwei had entered her zone.

Last time, after struggling to survive at the bottom of the gorge for three months, Gao Lingwei and Rong Taotao had returned to society with an attitude of extreme indifference.

After the two worked hard to change, their condition gradually recovered, and they eventually reintegrated into society, able to live and interact with people normally.

However, how long had it been since Gao Lingwei had faced the Corpse Tide army? That lifeless version of her was back!

She no longer treated life as life!

She had lost all reverence for life!

SWISH! The Long Halberd in Gao Lingwei’s hand swung out sharply in front of her chest. The sharp Snow Halberd instantly swept across, slicing off the top half of the Snow Corpse’s head.

SPLASH…

A shower of crimson blood rained down, splashing across Gao Lingwei’s face. At this moment, her patterned mask looked even more bizarre, and even more terrifying.

And behind Gao Lingwei, Rong Taotao also thrust his halberd. Before the Snow Halberd could even pierce his opponent, a rapidly spinning Lotus Petal had already penetrated the skull of the Snow Corpse in front of him.

On the chaotic battlefield, the shimmering Lotus Petal didn’t just pierce the skull of one Snow Corpse, but rather penetrated all enemies in a straight line ahead!

SHINK! SHINK! SHINK…

In an instant, a line of Snow Corpses were injured or killed, falling backward.

“ROAR!” An enraged howl came from the front right!

Without a second thought, Rong Taotao quickly brought his halberd to the right to block.

But the Snow Halberd didn’t meet it head-on. The latticed head of the Long Halberd suddenly turned vertical, using the force of the Snow Corpse’s attack to guide its body across Rong Taotao’s front.

SHIINK~

The returning Lotus Petal instantly stabbed into the back of the Snow Corpse’s head. As the Lotus Petal spun out from the Snow Corpse’s forehead, a Soul Pearl shot out, and the Snow Corpse died simultaneously.

“COO~” The Mengmeng Xiao perched on Rong Taotao’s shoulder couldn’t help but cry out. Its golden eyes, glowing with a strange light, looked to the left.

To the left of the boy and his pet, a Snow Ghost that had just finished piecing together its physical body froze on the spot.

Elite-rank Owl Eyes!

Creatures like Snow Corpses and Ghosts, which purely cultivated their physical bodies, were no different from Pirate Leader Snow Apes in terms of their mental fortitude—they were terrifyingly weak…

The Mengmeng Xiao only needed to make eye contact, and whether it was a Snow Corpse or a Snow Ghost, they would practically fall asleep on the spot…

Er, that description might be a bit of an exaggeration.

But even if the Snow Corpses and Ghosts couldn’t fall into a deep sleep in one second, they would enter a dazed state. Their minds would become exhausted, and they’d even feel the urge to lie down and sleep in the snow right then and there…

What was even more terrifying was that this Soul Beast owl, the Mengmeng Xiao, could rotate its head almost 360 degrees with no blind spots!

This meant that the Mengmeng Xiao didn’t even need to move its body; its eyes alone could cover all directions!

What?

You want to hurt my master?

Don’t even talk. Just go take a nap first!

And for Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei, on a battlefield of life and death, you dare to lie down and sleep at their feet?

They won’t even spare you when you’re alive, so you think you can wake up after falling asleep?

In your dreams!

Hmm, to pass away in one’s sleep… that seems like a pretty good way to die, doesn’t it?

Clan Leader Bai Muqing, who had been watching from the rear, originally had a worried expression as she looked at the two. But as the battle began, Bai Muqing was left completely stunned.

While organizing her clan members to extend their tree thorns to resist the surging Corpse Tide, she also kept a close eye on the situation on the field.

The Bailing Tree Maiden Clan Leader had lived for a very long time and was a Soul Beast who had weathered many storms. If a god-tier Soul Martial Artist were rampaging through this Corpse Tide army, she could have accepted it.

But these two human cubs… For some reason, when Clan Leader Bai Muqing watched Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei fight, she got the feeling that they were like fish in water.

It was as if these two human cubs were born to survive on a battlefield brimming with crisis!
