Otherworldly Skeleton Evolution

“A World Boss with 300 million HP, such overpowered damage reflection and magic immunity, I’d like to see how they kill it without the Black Skeleton’s ultimate skills,” Ice Blade said to Xie Changkong as they were on their way to the Killing God Mountain Range, a hint of a smile on his face.

“This Black Skeleton has repeatedly created miracles and shouldn’t be underestimated. Looking down on anyone is disrespecting yourself,” Xie Changkong glanced at him, speaking with a hint of disdain.

“Besides, if the Black Skeleton hadn’t given it his all, how could we become the fishermen reaping the benefits?”

“Hehe, that’s true. It would be best if they were evenly matched, both suffering heavy losses. Then we could step in at the end. That would surely infuriate that Black Skeleton, haha,” Ice Blade said smugly.

Relying on a big tree indeed provides good shade. The Temple had many people, so he hardly needed to use his own guild’s strength. He just needed to show up, and he could still get a share of the benefits. Everyone would be happy.

Before, he couldn’t swallow his pride, but now that he had tasted the benefits, he actually didn’t want to dissolve the alliance.

“Let’s stop here for now,” Xie Changkong ordered the team to halt in a barren grassland, about three minutes away from the Killing God Mountain Range.

“Pass down the order: everyone check each other’s potion supplies, report dropped equipment for redistribution.”

“Yes, sir.” Clear Wind Bright Moon acknowledged, then along with Yue Xia Duzhuo, had everyone stop to regroup before moving forward.

“Without a guild channel, giving orders is too cumbersome,” Xie Changkong frowned, his hatred for Jiang Cheng deepening.

If it weren’t for what Jiang Cheng did in the Blood Hell Forbidden Land, they would have gotten their Guild Establishment Token by now.

Now Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers and Cutie Shakes the World were leading the way, standing out among tens of thousands of guilds, and had blocked the channel for guild leaders like them to establish guilds.

How could he not hate this?

Of course, Xie Changkong suddenly realized this was a great opportunity.

If other guild leaders knew it was Jiang Cheng and the Fist Sage who cut off their hopes of establishing guilds, Cutie Shakes the World and Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers would surely become the target of public criticism!

With a bit of maneuvering, Cutie Shakes the World and Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers might become the common enemy of all guilds in the server!

“God Changkong, why have we stopped?” Ice Blade was confused seeing tens of thousands of people halted here.

The Boss was just ahead, huge fame and rewards were within reach. Why stop now?

“It’s not the right time,” Xie Changkong didn’t bother to explain in detail. He also believed that Ice Blade, as the leader of Frost Seal World, couldn’t be so stupid as to not understand the meaning behind his actions.

“Have you already sent people to gather information?”

Xie Changkong nodded, “We’re just not sure how far they can fight.”

“I think they probably can’t hold out for two hours. The exact time depends on how many players come to support from various sides.”

Ice Blade wasn’t a fool. Those who could reach the position of guild leader certainly couldn’t be intellectually deficient. With one sentence from Xie Changkong, he understood the meaning behind it.

“Qian Shanxue, Qian Chonglang, Data King Dharma Demon should have arrived. Path to Hell and Array Emperor are also here. How long they can fight depends on their coordination.”

Xie Changkong drew his Silver Moon Blade and carefully wiped the blade with top-grade silk.

“Impressive. The Temple is indeed the Temple, with such a powerful intelligence network.”

Ice Blade was full of admiration for this.

The Temple could even keep track of these big shots’ movements so clearly. Ice Blade was truly both envious and admiring of this.

“How long does God Sword Changkong estimate they can hold out?”

“I’m not sure of the exact precise time, but it should be around ten minutes. It’s still early now. Going too early risks being discovered and causing unexpected changes.”

Xie Changkong finished wiping the blade and started on the hilt, looking completely at ease, as if certain that Jiang Cheng and his team couldn’t defeat the Knife-wielding Snake King.

“That’s true. With such powerful attributes, without our support, no matter how many individual players there are, without a leader like God Sword Changkong to unite them, they’re just a scattered crowd, unable to gather much strength.”

Ice Blade spoke with certainty.

“Eighty percent damage reflection, plus 200 armor pierce on reflection, the higher the damage, the faster you die. And the Knife-wielding Snake King has a magic immunity talent, which is almost impossible to counter.”

Xie Changkong analyzed, “To defeat the Snake King, we’d need a certain number of Demon Swordsman teams to release the Wind Shadow Array, or bring enough priests to heal constantly. Otherwise, there’s no way to break through.”

“And the Snake King’s life steal would need to be countered by a small team.”

“The World Boss’s intelligence isn’t high. Actually, the best strategy would be to have one person draw all the aggro, with ten thousand people divided into a thousand small teams constantly supporting.”

“This way, the Boss’s life steal would be effectively nullified. With its low defense, given enough time, it could eventually be worn down.”

“As expected of God Sword Changkong. Just based on temporary information, you can quickly analyze a foolproof strategy. I, Ice Blade, am truly in awe today.”

After hearing Xie Changkong’s analysis, Ice Blade felt a sense of despair for the first time.

Diligence determines achievement, talent determines the upper limit – this saying was indeed not just empty words.

The talent of some geniuses can truly make you feel hopeless and left in the dust.

Just like the Supreme God. Although he had passed away, his achievements still remained unmatched!

Those who tried to surpass him mostly ended up in ruin.

“Heh, this is just the safest strategy. If… Meng Changqing were still in our Temple, I would use the most extreme method to cut down the Boss with my sword.”

“The most extreme method?”

“With me as the main force, Meng Changqing as support, 1000 priest teams, plus 1000 archer teams would be enough.”

“Would that work? But it’s well known that although the Immortal Phoenix has joined Cutie Shakes the World, he’s still loyal to the Temple, right?”

Ice Blade was very confused about this.

Xie Changkong shook his head and said with some regret,

“You don’t understand Meng Changqing’s character. He’s a person who values promises more than his life. Since he has joined Cutie Shakes the World, for him, he’s now a member of Cutie Shakes the World from now on.”

“Is that so?” After hearing this, Ice Blade suddenly thought of something and his expression changed. “Wait, if the Black Skeleton has the Immortal Phoenix, and so many individual players, as long as there’s a commander, couldn’t they also use this extreme strategy?”

“The Boss is in danger!”

After saying this, Ice Blade was about to call the Temple’s people to quickly prepare and intercept the Boss.

But Xie Changkong looked at Ice Blade as if he were an idiot and shook his head. “Don’t worry, for this extreme strategy, the most important part isn’t the Immortal Phoenix, but the person who draws the Boss’s aggro.”

“This person, the Fist Sage can’t do it, the Array Emperor can’t do it, Qian Shanxue can’t do it, Path to Hell can’t do it, and the Black Skeleton also can’t—”
