Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 788: Chapter 368: Single person breaks the formation

Under the shocked gaze of the Jing Family’s mighty warriors and the vigilant watch of the Yin Soldiers,

a black torrent burst forth from the dust and smoke, carrying with it a thunderous clatter of iron hooves!

Leading the charge was a fierce beast with the head of a dragon and the body of a cat, issuing a heart-shaking roar.

Even covered in scars and ghastly wounds, it could not conceal its formidable presence.

Atop it stood a heroic figure, garbed in Black Gold Bright Armor, wielding a Sky Halberd in hand.

His overwhelming intent for battle stirred the soul with merely two simple words, putting the Yin Soldiers Army on high alert,

“Charge!”

Following on his left and right, a thousand-strong Legion, all equipped heavy cavalry! Men and horses alike clad in heavy armor!

They hoisted their sharp horse lances, accelerating to the utmost, like a landslide cascading down, following in the wake of that lone silhouette!

The purple flames in the Yin Soldiers’ eye sockets flared, as if responding to that wild intent for battle.

The Yin Soldiers were more numerous; their strength greater, over five times that of the Cavalry Corps, would they tolerate such provocation?

A figure from the deepest ranks of the Yin Soldiers rose,

and at once, a flurry of commands cascaded down the line.

Solid bone shields were raised by the front lines of the Yin Soldiers. Behind them, the second row planted their long spears, turning into a forest of pikes.

Behind that, countless Ghost Soldier Archers lifted their bows, and the next moment, the sound of arrows filled the valley.

Countless arrows launched skyward, then fell like raindrops, crashing upon the charging equipped cavalry!

The terrifying firepower of the Yin Soldiers was capable of shattering mountains, many a Jing Family warrior had fallen to such barrages.

But this… could not stop the full-power charge of the heavy armored cavalry!

Ignoring all casualties, the black torrent cut right through the arrow rain, smashing fiercely onto the Yin Soldiers’ formation.

In that instant, the Yin Soldiers let out cries like wailing ghosts.

The cavaliers, meanwhile, responded with silence…

No roars, no battle cries, only the charge!

A charge of mutual destruction!

The simplest tactic, yet the most effective, and also one with the greatest casualties, a brute force breakthrough!

In the moment of impact, the entire battlefield fell into a momentary hush.

The next second, like a flood breaking through a dam, the solid formation of the Yin Soldiers was violently torn asunder!

Shield walls crumbled, spears forests were submerged, and a mass of Yin Soldiers was crushed directly by the Heavy Armor Cavalry!

This strike was undoubtedly a success; having torn through the front lines at great cost, the momentum of the cavalry surge did not wane, smashing fiercely into the rear formations, continuing to expand their victories.

On any other battlefield under these conditions, the cavalry would have already claimed victory.

An army wracked by fear would turn to rout, collapsing back upon their own lines, enabling the cavaliers to magnify their victory further.

Eventually, they would achieve the feat of a small cavalry unit driving a vast army to puncture enemy ranks and seize overall victory!

But now, they faced the Yin Soldiers, the Ghost Immortal’s Yin Soldiers!

Human armies may know fear; the Forbidden Zone Army may know fear, but the undead Yin Soldiers certainly do not!

They have no emotions of fear, nor do they fear death. Even with their ranks broken, they roared fiercely, lunging at the cavaliers regardless of their own lives, grabbing at the horses’ legs, pulling down the cavalry.

This greatly slowed the once swiftly advancing Heavy Armor Cavalry, as if mired in deep mud.

Even the Brave General at the very front of the Cavalry Corps found himself in a bitter struggle.

Several Yin Soldier War Generals emerged, forcefully halting the advance of the general.

The fierce beast beneath him had its front legs shattered.

More Ghost Soldier Archers raised their Longbows, taking aim at the general in a volley! In the distance, the Yin Soldiers’ cavalry was rallying, clearly preparing to countercharge!

The numerical inferiority was laid bare; against the more numerous, complete-armed Yin Soldiers, the reinforcement army faced dire peril.

This struck fear into the heart of Jing Ji in the distant palace, who was at first overjoyed!

He bellowed in dread, “Follow me on the charge, now is the time, go! Charge! Save him, save him!”

He brandished his War Axe, leading the charge, that was his grandson, his daughter’s child. Years of guilt and regret ignited unparalleled courage in the elder.

Behind him, the Jing Family warriors clenched their teeth and surged forward.

There was no time for hesitation, this was the only chance!

In the end, perhaps the only reinforcements faced a deadly besiegement. On the field, which human warrior dared spare their own life?

One Spiritual Ability User after another unleashed their abilities, madly attacking the Yin Soldier Legion.

From a distance, one’s gaze flickered, and swathes of Yin Soldiers ignited.

A Spiritual Ability User let out a furious shout, and the terrifying sound waves, visible to the naked eye, swallowed up hundreds of Yin Soldiers.

The Jing Family’s two Sixth-sense Experts charged fiercely, their weapons slashing continuously, slaughtering a large number of Yin Soldiers.

More warriors employed Taboo Items, starting to harass the Yin Soldier Legion.

But those shattered Yin Soldiers quickly reformed on the ground and climbed back up.

At the same time, innumerable arrows fell, covering the battlefield where the cavaliers were, even ignoring friend and foe, engulfing the entire field.

In that instant, the battlefield fell silent again. That area, blanketed by bone arrows like a forest.

Entangled Yin Soldiers and cavaliers were attacked by the rain of arrows, the cavaliers dissolving into lights and vanishing, while the Yin Soldiers were nailed to the ground.

Subsequently, the remote Yin Soldier Cavalry Corps launched a charge, disregarding their comrades, forcefully rushing onto the battlefield.

It was over!

The Jing Family warriors thought, they were too late for the rescue.

However, a cold voice rose from the midst of the battlefield.
