  "Don't!"

  "It's a misunderstanding— Ah!"

  Before the players who wanted to resort to trickery could get to the edge of the forest, they were cut to pieces in the air. They fell on the ground like torn dolls.

  The crowd was stunned silent.

  Some people cackled because of the fallen's misfortune, but there were also some who managed to see through what was going on. They frowned, and their expressions grew solemn as well as suspicious.

  Even though those people had flown over everyone's heads and made those on the ground a little displeased, they should not have received such a tragic end.

  Besides, the people who attacked were all from different sects.

  They attacked from different directions, as if they had rehearsed it beforehand.

  As time passed, more players arrived outside the forest. Quite a number of those who were strong arrived at front to observe the situation, and all of them became incredibly puzzled.

  'Why does it feel like… there's even more people around Fox Cave today?'

  What baffled them was that some of the sects' people had moved into the depths of the forest once they arrived. It did not seem that Fox Cave was as packed as the people outside claimed.

  Everyone felt displeased and puzzled, and those feelings continued to swell in their hearts.

  The time for Fox Cave to open drew near, and more arguments erupted at the edge of the forest. When many people saw the situation, they felt that if they did not enter Fox Cave right away, they would have wasted an entire day waiting for it to activate.

  A continuous stream of people charged forward and tried to squeeze into the depths of the forest.

  But the people from the sects showed an even tougher side and drew their weapons. They pointed them at the players at the edge and outside the forest. The uniform actions by the sects finally allowed everyone to understand what was going on.

  "Damn you! If there's still space in Fox Cave, why won't you let us get in there?!

  "You scoundrels! You're thinking of monopolizing the resources in Fox Cave! Dream on!

  "Damn it! You're thinking of not letting us in? Don't even think about having an easy time in doing so! Brothers, let's fight against these bastards! AAHHH—"

  The player in the crowd who shouted to instigate the anger of the other players received an arrow in his throat. Blood gushed out in streams from his neck, and judging by the looks of it, he would not be able to survive.

  After a temporary period of silence, the overbearing actions of the players from the sects enraged the players at the edge and outside the forest.

  "Kill them!"

  "Kill those bastards!"

  Fights broke out in a few regions where the atmosphere was the tensest. The flames of war swiftly spread out, and they even showed signs to get the entire battle line involved.

  Happy and his party were also part of it.

  When the sect in front of them saw that the sects by their sides had become engaged in a battle against the players and the players they blocked off were also itching to fight, they instantly panicked. They lost their rationality and attacked first without even differentiating what was right or wrong.

  It had to be said that the people before Happy and his party were a little unlucky.

  Happy, All-powerful Medicinal Stone, and Thunderous Battle stood together while feeling frustrated, because they could not find a suitable reason to break into the depths of the forest. When they saw the enemies take the initiative to attack, there was simply no reason for them not to fight back.

  "Ah!"

  "Ah!"

  "Ah!"

  Three fierce gusts of sword aura shot out from All-powerful Medicinal Stone's hands. The three players who blocked his path were all struck down. One had his t.h.i.g.h hit, another his elbow, and the last his c.h.e.s.t. One died, and the other two were injured.

  "Roar!"

  "Roar!"

  The two zombie puppets who had hidden themselves in the crowd tore off the huge cloaks with hoods covering their bodies and charged forward like tigers let out of a cage! With savage expressions, they flew over All-powerful Medicinal Stone's head, and with a single palm strike each, they struck the c.h.e.s.ts of two players who wanted to hit All-powerful Medicinal Stone.

  "Hiss!"

  The two players were taken off guard. Their clothes were torn, and their flesh ripped. They coughed up blood at the same time and retreated.

  It was then time for Thunderous Battle and Little North to give their performance.

  "Die!"

  All-powerful Medicinal Stone, Thunderous Battle, and Little North attacked at the same time while following behind the two zombie puppets. There was not a single sect member in front of them who could last for even two rounds under their attacks. They would either be killed by Little North's ruthless Ten Thousand Poisonous Palms, or be assassinated by All-powerful Medicinal Stone's attacks executed behind his strange and agile body movements.

  As for Thunderous Battle, he attacked at full force with his Infinite Sword Technique at Grandmaster Realm. No one could fend against his attacks. They would all cough up blood before they were flung away, no longer even able to hold their weapons firmly.

  There were all sorts of powerful players from various sects in the depths of the forest, but they were all people who were waiting for Fox Cave to be activated.

  When they saw that a fight had erupted in the perimeter and that their normal members were showing signs of losing control of the situation, quite a number of them were sent to take back the initiative.

  The ferocious party of three soon attracted quite a number of the powerful players' gazes!

  Happy went with the crowd after the trio who madly pushed forward. He was dressed in his Yellow Dragon set and had his Green Jade Shrouded in Heavenly Silks equipped. A faint presence of Wind Spirit Spin could be found spiralling around him, but none of the powerful players paid any attention to him.

  Chapter 188 - Golden Bell Cocoon Shows Its Might

  The areas inside and outside the forest soon turned into a slaughterhouse filled with the shadows of weapons and blood. Sword glares of various colors appeared and vanished, and the sounds of wind being sliced rose and fell. The noise traveled far and wide, but once many of the powerful players from the sects worked together to resist the attack, the non-sect members suffered terrible losses and could not push into the depths of the forest. This situation was something the players at the edge and outside the forest could not accept.

  "Fire!"

  "Shoot and kill these bastards!"

  Soon, the situation in the battlefield became even worse and more complicated.

  When the arrows in the air landed among the players, the fighters in the forest copied their tactic and began shooting arrows from their side as well. Large groups of players fell to the ground dead, including some innocent players who had not joined the battle.

  Only Happy's side managed to open a gap.

  The two zombie puppets stood in front, and Thunderous Battle, in his light armor, moved like a mobile battle fortress. They broke through the line and advanced in a triangle. When Thunderous Battle drew close to an enemy, there was no one who could last three rounds against him.

  All-powerful Medicinal Stone's advantage was in his lightness skill. He resolutely changed from being the main attacker to a supporter and followed behind Little North and Thunderous Battle, protecting their flanks. He shifted back and forth like a ghost and killed the people beside them.

  The three people soon broke through the defense line formed by the sect ahead of them, like a hot knife cutting into butter. They then rushed into the forest.

  "You sure are wild, huh?!"

  The non sect-members who followed behind Thunderous Battle and his party trembled at the sound of it. They stopped moving and looked up. A dazzling sword glare that traveled at the speed of an alarmed bird taking flight shot over from a distance, as if it was a comet from the world beyond. I
t instantly charged at Thunderous Battle, who fought with increasing boldness. The momentum of the sword glare was sharp and fierce, as if it wanted to break through everything in its path!

  'A strong player has arrived…'

  When Thunderous Battle saw the sword glare, his eyes lit up with fighting spirit. He did not retreat but advanced!

  "Infinite Rebirth!"

  He resolutely took half a step forward and changed the momentum of his sword. Then, with the ease of lightning spliting a tree in half, he canceled his fierce and violent sword attack for a gentle aura.

  Happy nodded in secret while following closely behind him.

  Infinite Rebirth was Infinite Sword Technique's high-tier critical skill. It was one of its killing moves, but it was different from Flowering Knights Slash, which was a violent and domineering killing move. Infinite Rebirth was a defensive move that had its edge in the dark. Compared to Flowering Knights Slash, which was a flashy big move, it was even more dangerous and difficult to fend against.

  However, Infinite Sword Technique was not the only high-tier martial art in the world that had killing moves. Thunderous Battle was also not the only one who had his high-tier martial art at Grandmaster Realm.

  Happy looked around, and his expression grew solemn.

  They had to end the battle quickly!

  When Happy thought of this, he tapped against the ground. He was unable to help himself and weaved through the crowd to the frontlines like a ghost.

  Bang!

  At the instant the attacker clashed head on against Thunderous Battle's killing move, which he had charged but not released, it neutralized the sharp and fierce attack that came from the distance. Both of them were forced back. It seemed that their strength was actually about the same.

  "Good!" the newcomer shouted. He was actually interested in the fight right then. He was full of spirit when he moved in front of Thunderous Battle once more, swiftly engaging him in a fight. At the same time, he shouted loudly, "I'll handle this person! All of you take care of the rest! Chase everyone out of this place, and kill all those who resist without exception!"

  When he finished speaking, a yellow figure appeared at their scattered defense line in his peripheral vision. Alarm bells rang in his mind, and his heart let out a loud thump.

  The newcomer was incredibly young and handsome. He had an elegant disposition, and he moved about with an otherworldly grace. He held no weapons, but he appeared in a languid manner beside All-powerful Medicinal Stone and Little North. There was a faint hint of derision and mockery on his face.

  "Kill all of us?"

  If Happy had been a normal player, the players who surrounded the area would definitely not say anything but use their actions to explain what "kill all without exception" truly meant.

  High-tier body fortification technique!

  "Why are there so many good players here?!"

  The newcomer was just about to go up against Thunderous Battle when the situation fell out of his hands. He cursed and quickly retreated from his fight against Thunderous Battle. Instead, he had two of his companions take his place to hold Thunderous Battle back, while he brought the others to surround Happy, All-powerful Medicinal Stone, and Little North.

  "Together!"

  Once that order was given, around a dozen players erupted with a strong aura from their bodies. Clanging sounds were heard as they drew their weapons. They intermingled with each other before they pounced on their targets.

  Based on their movements and positioning, Happy could tell that their abilities were way above those who were in the defense line before! Once they shifted spots with each other, their targets became clear, and their momentum was astonishing. Anyone who let down their guard would be oppressed and defeated by their formation and the momentum they deliberately created.

  However, the people in Happy's party were not normal good players.

  Little North had two zombies with abnormally sturdy bodies, and if he was no longer afraid of three Mystical Realm zombies, how could he be intimidated by such small tricks?

  All-powerful Medicinal Stone's lightness skill was unmatched in the game, and he was the best at avoiding enemy attacks and attacking their weaknesses. This sort of thing was completely useless against him.

  He did not move his feet in the face of the enemies who came at him from three directions at an aggressive charge nor change his position when their attacks were about to land on his body.

  Everything happened in a flash. When the trio saw that the mysterious young man before them did not react, their solemn looks turned into crazed delight. They subconsciously increased the strength of their attacks. They looked as if they wanted to kill him in one go with the howling wind as an accompaniment.

  However, what they did not expect was that the moment before their attacks touched Happy's flesh, the faint golden light surrounding him suddenly increased!

  Buzz!

  The golden light and the trio's weapons clashed head on, and it let out waves of loud bell chimes that shook the players' hearts. The trio felt as if their attacks had landed on a huge and mighty bell!

  "Ah!"

  The trio took a huge step backwards from the tremors!

  As for Happy, aside from a faint flush on his cheeks because of swelling, he did not move and inch. He stood as still as a mountain.

  The people in the area s.u.c.k.e.d in sharp breaths when the saw what happened.

  It was only when he was flat on his back did he realize what happened, but unfortunately for him, it was already too late. His body was instantly suppressed, and a low and icy voice dealing out his judgment reached his ears.

  "Those who block me will be killed without mercy."

  Then, the sound of a throat being crushed destroyed the last shreds of consciousness in the player who had a high-tier martial art at Grandmaster Realm. The resolute action of killing the man and the loud sound it made brought a pause to all the battles in the forest.

  As the crowd watched the corpse in Happy's hands fall down slowly, all the sect members lost their rationality and jumped out from the forest with loud shouts!

  "Take revenge for the sect master!"

  Chapter 189 - Breakthrough!

  He had actually managed to kill a sect master.

  Happy was both stunned and speechless, but he did not feel too much pressure. After all, if he wanted to enter Fox Cave, he definitely had to attack a sect. Since the sect before him had stretched its neck under his blade on its own, he could only force himself to accept its offer.

  His gaze turned cold, and he decided to let loose. He activated Wind Spirit Spin and rushed into the crowd.

  Then, a bizarre scene shocked all the onlookers!

  Right before their eyes, Happy charged into the crowd like dust, and with his palms alone, he formed multiple shadows of palms in the air that were densely packed together. Before the enemies in front of him could get close, they would already be sent flying by the afterimages trailing behind the shadows of the palms.

  Even the powerful players did not manage to face Happy head on. When they were about to attack, they found themselves shaking badly because of the tremors caused by the wind stirred up by the fists crashing into them.

  "What's going on?"

  The players nearby discovered to their shock that even if they activated their body fortification techniques, they still could not get rid of the effects brought by the wind stirred up by the fists. The wind would blow against them so strongly that they would lose their balance and stagger backwards. They would cough up blood in great discomfort, unable to maintain their balance.

  They were shocked, but Happy did not give them much time to understand what was going on. Under the protection of Golden Bell Cocoon, he used the powerful damage of Stormy Shadowless Kick and Wind Spirit Spin to force back and kill dozens of people within a short time.

  He completely destroyed the defense line, and once he reopened the gap, countless players instantly surged in. The flames
of battle spread to both sides of the gap!

  "Charge!"

  "Fox Cave is about to open! Hurry up and get in!"

  Countless players rushed into the depths of the forest from the gap that the sect had failed to guard.

  *****

  The huge, grayish-white stone gained a faint sheen under the illumination of moonlight. It was the sign that Fox Cave was about to open. Hundreds of powerful players from different sects had gathered around it. Their emotions surged, but they remained calm.

  At that moment, the noise of bloody murder, weapons clashing together, and clamorous steps reached them. It swiftly came closer, and eventually, it destroyed the last shred of peace at the entrance of Fox Cave!

  However, the hundreds of players around Fox Cave did not show many changes in their expressions. Some of them cast a faint glance at the people who had surged into the area through the gap like a swarm of bees, and scornful looks appeared on their faces.

  "As expected of small sects. They're all people who can't bring anything to the table. Working with them has been a mistake."

  "Even so, we have to think about how we want to deal with the problems now."

  "We'll push them back," someone suggested, completely unbothered by the idea of making the matter blow up exponentially. His words made many people feel their fighting spirits burn; they were all itching to fight!

  "Everyone!"

  A few people who seemed to have a lot of prestige gathered together near the entrance.

  One of them was rather young and had a gentle face. "In truth, we have been in the wrong at the start of this matter. If we take action forcefully now, we'll appear as tyrants. Fox Cave is about to be activated soon. If we engage in a chaotic battle now, it will not be beneficial to any of us, what do you think?" he said with a frown.

  The person who spoke was a vice sect master of Chivalry Sect. He was also the spokesperson for Chivalry Sect.
