Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone

The sharp beak pierced straight through the ghost’s back and extracted his Soul Fire before swallowing it whole.

Behind him, more demons surged forward, charging towards the merchant group.

The undead’s Soul Fire there was tempting them.

But standing before them was Fang Zhou’s Undead Army.

These cemetery undead arranged in orderly lines had long been ready for battle.

The demons unleashed their innate skills, clouding the cemetery line with smog.

Various low-tier skills landed on the undead, but most proved ineffective.

Within the formation, the Blood Spirit Commander raised his two-handed sword, his Soul Fire resonating with all the Spiritual Remains Warriors under his command.

"Fire the arrows!"

The frontline Spiritual Remains Warriors held shields and spears, steadfastly defending the line.

Meanwhile, more Spiritual Remains Archers at the back drew their bone bows.

Soul Fire infused these arrows, and with the Blood Spirit Commander’s command, they were fired simultaneously.

Almost instantly, thousands of ghostly blue flames appeared within the Undead Army array, visible to the demons.

These bone arrows imbued with Soul Fire hurtled towards them at high speed.

Some demons reacted swiftly, picking up nearby demons as shields to block overhead.

But many demons couldn’t react fast enough, getting struck by the descending arrow rain.

The power of these Soul Fire-infused arrows needs no further elaboration.

Demons hit by the bone arrows were heavily damaged.

Even though the demons’ formation was scattered, making many bone arrows miss.

But these bone arrows would explode upon impact, even if they missed the target.

Shattered bone fragments would also harm these demons.

However, these injuries did not instill fear in the demons; instead, they fueled their soul-hungry desires.

At the center of the merchant group, Fang Zhou and the Bone Dragon Yurius stood guard.

This was crucial in fighting the demons, especially since Fang Zhou had signed a contract with Trist.

If these middle-high tier demons possess teleportation skills and directly teleport into the merchant group center.

Not only would they slaughter many undead within the merchant group, but any damage to the goods would be the real issue.

Fang Zhou had no doubt that if there were any losses, Trist would definitely charge exorbitant prices.

But now, with Fang Zhou guarding the center, his overwhelming combat ability ensures no such problems arise.

On the frontline where both sides engage, the battle is intensely fierce.

Billows of blood mist erupted—all from the attacked demons.

Broken bones scattered everywhere, and the ghostly blue Soul Fire occasionally extinguished.

The demons proved formidable even under the Blood Spirit Commander’s direction, still exchanging casualties with the Spiritual Remains Warriors.

Within the formation, the front-row Spiritual Remains Warriors used shield defense, occasionally thrusting spears, in coordination with large Spiritual Remains Hatreds to deal damage to demons.

Behind them were Spiritual Remains Warriors wielding swords and shields, handling smaller demons or those bypassing spears.

Finally, at the back were Spiritual Remains Archers waiting to fire bone arrows and Spiritual Remains Mages releasing undead magic.

Together, they thwarted demons’ attacks repeatedly.

Though demons weren’t powerless.

This wasn’t a battle among mere mortals.

Some demons were thick-skinned and large in stature.

They could even charge into the formation, disrupting the Spiritual Remains Warriors’ lines while enduring spear thrusts.

Other demons would unleash skills, with huge Abyssal Fireballs blasting several Spiritual Remains Warriors away.

Certainly, demons casting skills cared nothing for their allies’ survival.

Some offensive skills would attack Spiritual Remains Warriors and other demons alike.

Silver tier demons from the back also approached slowly, dissatisfied with middle-low tier demons’ slow progress, deciding to join the fray.

Little did they know their arrogant decision left no chance to escape the battlefield.

In the back, Burning Fire Demons channeled magic power, firing a huge fireball.

This twisting black-red flame struck a formation of dozens of Spiritual Remains Warriors.

Massive explosions and flames consumed the scene, shattering the entire formation.

Warriors in the flame’s center were instantly blown apart.

Fang Zhou watched from Yurius’s back, feeling no disturbance.

He was already different from before.

As a Golden Level Blood Spirit Lord, after unifying the Wasteland of Strife, he commanded over a million tombyard undead army.

Even the Silver Tier Blood Spirit Guard numbered over twenty thousand.

Bronze Tier Spiritual Remains Warrior casualties no longer concerned him.

If not for hiding strength and conserving resources, summoning the Blood Spirit Guard would certainly annihilate every demon on the spot.

But now, having just arrived at the Blood War Furnace, caution was advisable.

Now that middle-high tier demons began entering the battlefield, Fang Zhou’s Knight Order positioned at the rear started mobilizing.

Over a hundred Blood Spirit Knights and more than five hundred Undead Knights stomped on scorched ground, raising clouds of dust.

While most demons didn’t notice, these knights had already circled to the side of the demons’ attack.

The Blood Spirit Knights’ combat abilities had significantly improved through sustained fighting and cultivation.

Generally, they’re at Silver Upper Rank, with elite individuals possessing Silver Limit combat abilities.

As for Bronze Tier Spiritual Skeleton Cavalry, they’re individually at Bronze Upper.

The knights reached suitable positions, their mounts accelerated with small steps, then opened a conical array, launching a frenzied charge.

By the time the demons reacted, the knights had reached the peak of their charge, with Blood Spirit Auras connecting in a net.

Facing these Blood Spirit Auras, demons found breathing difficult, seeing countless black shadows within their perspective, twisted facelessness dancing.

The horrifying effect of Blood Spirit Aura evoked demons’ deepest fears.

A voice in their minds urged them to run, flee from this battlefield, prioritize survival.

Some demons heeded this thought, doing exactly that.

They quickly turned around, fleeing in terror.

Other demons met a worse fate, frozen in place under Blood Spirit Aura, scared stiff.

"Boom!!!!"

The Undead Knights struck demons like a heavy hammer.

All demons blocking the Undead Knights’ path seemed like mud trampled into the earth.

Blood mist lingered on the path of the Undead Knights’ charge, accompanied by more dismembered demon limbs.

Not even Silver Tier demons fared well on their charge path.

Silver Tier demons unable to escape were pierced by several lances, screaming as Blood Spirit Bat Wolves trampled them.

Within the battle group, several Silver Tier demons clustered together.

Dealing with such stubborn opponents, the Undead Knights opted to bypass them, attacking other enemies.

Thus, under the conical array and Blood Spirit Aura’s boost, the Undead Knights in three waves charged repeatedly within the demon army formation.

Eventually breaking through, opening a blood-soaked path.
