Slaying the Corpse General!

"A domain!!!"

The other nine stood frozen, utterly stunned by the scene before them!

Zhou Sining summoning the Flame Demon Tiger had still been within their understanding, but the domain of white flames beneath his feet was beyond anything they knew!

The Gangsha domain spread rapidly, soon enveloping the Venomous Corpse General and the female wolf corpse.

Tiny white flames swarmed over their bodies, then burst one after another. Tongues of fire swept across them, blooming into fist-sized flowers on their massive forms.

Gangsha was especially effective against unholy creatures. Its searing heat rivaled Radiant Light.

And with so many flames coming without pause, even the Great General-level Venomous Corpse General dared not linger in the domain. It hurried toward the horde of corpses.

Zhou Sining had not reached the Advanced Tier, so his Gangsha domain was much smaller than a normal flame domain. It stopped expanding at a radius of roughly thirty meters.

"What are you standing around for?! Kill the monsters!" Zhou Sining roared at the others.

Only then did the nine snap out of it. Except for the university student mage who had lost his left arm, they quickly began drawing Star Maps.

"Help me pin down the Venomous Corpse General! Flame Demon Tiger, take care of that female wolf corpse!" Zhou Sining began drawing his Star Map as soon as he spoke.

"Roar!" The Flame Demon Tiger nodded in understanding.

Bolstered by the Gangsha domain, he shot forward like an arrow from a bow, charging straight at the Female-Headed Wolf Corpse outside the domain!

As he ran, he kept drawing on the fire within him. By the time he reached the fleeing Female-Headed Wolf Corpse, white and red flames cloaked his body!

"Boom!"

Without hesitation, the Flame Demon Tiger raised his sharp claws and pounced on the corpse beast, which was as large as he was.

His cloak of flames protected him from the corrosive liquid coating his opponent.

Tiger and corpse beast tangled in an instant. In raw strength, the Female-Headed Wolf Corpse, at the Advanced Stage of Servant Level, was no weaker than the Flame Demon Tiger.

But the tiger was cloaked in white fire. Whenever it finally exhausted his Gangsha Flame, he ran back into the Gangsha domain to replenish it.

Luckily, the female wolf corpse had no mind of its own and fought purely on instinct and the Venomous Corpse General's commands. Otherwise, it would have cursed the Flame Demon Tiger's ancestors eighteen generations back.

With the Flame Demon Tiger keeping the female wolf corpse occupied, the ten mages only needed to focus on the Venomous Corpse General.

Zhou Sining's domain kept him safe from the weaker Undead.

And although one of the other nine mages could no longer fight, the pressure on them was far lighter than before.

Four of the eight remaining mages split off to deal with the approaching Undead.

The other four joined Zhou Sining against the Venomous Corpse General.

"Ice Lock!" An ice mage completed his Star Map first.

Three chains of ice as thick as bowls burst from the ground. Clanging like metal, they flew toward the Venomous Corpse General, which had just escaped the domain!

"Clang! Clang!"

The Ice Locks wound around its thick legs. The ice mage gripped the other ends and yanked hard, halting its advance as freezing power raced up the chains and spread over its body.

"I'll help! Ice Lock!"

"Thunderbolt!"

More Ice Locks flew out and wrapped around the Venomous Corpse General. At the same time, a storm cloud crackling with purple lightning rapidly gathered above its head.

"Crack—!!!"

When the lightning within reached its peak, a purple Thunderbolt came roaring down like a dragon, striking the Venomous Corpse General directly below!

"Bzzzz!"

As one of the most powerful Intermediate Magic spells, Thunderbolt's destructive force could not be underestimated.

The strike tore a huge gash in the Venomous Corpse General's right shoulder. Purple arcs instantly spread across its entire body, scorching it without pause.

Lightning and frost battered the Venomous Corpse General's outer skin together.

"Roar!"

Finally unable to endure the assault, the Venomous Corpse General seized both sets of chains, jerked them upward, then slammed them down!

With a sharp crack, the Ice Locks shattered into fragments. The surge of power from its body dispersed the arcs of lightning as well.

It was a Great General, after all. Even after taking three Intermediate Magic spells head-on, it still had the strength to fight back.

"Watch this! Gangsha · Fierce Fist · Earth Fiend!"

Zhou Sining had finished drawing his Star Map long ago. With the domain bolstering him, his Gangsha Flame was twice as fierce.

The flame-cloaked man dropped to one knee and drove his fist into the ground. A path of blazing white fire instantly appeared between him and the Venomous Corpse General.

A broad white glow spread beneath the Venomous Corpse General, growing brighter and brighter, as if something terrifying were about to burst forth.

"Roar!"

The Venomous Corpse General sensed the force gathering below. A split second before the pillar of flame erupted, it stamped the ground and leaped, narrowly avoiding the devastating strike!

"Did you think you could get away?" Zhou Sining snorted and closed his hand around empty air.

The distant pillar of flame rapidly condensed into a blazing fireball, white throughout with a crimson edge.

"Transform!"

The fireball rapidly changed shape, becoming a flaming arrow.

"Go!"

The arrow shot toward the panting Venomous Corpse General, aimed straight at its chest!

"Quick, pin it down!" The lead hunter reacted at once, calling on the surrounding mages to use control spells and hinder the Venomous Corpse General's movements.

Ice Locks, Thunderbolts, Earth Waves, and fierce winds appeared one after another, all striking toward the Venomous Corpse General.

Those spells might be stopped before they even reached it, but any delay would do.

Because Zhou Sining's flaming arrow was almost there!

"Roar!!!"

The Venomous Corpse General smashed the last Ice Lock in frustration. It looked up to see a huge arrow hurtling straight toward its face!

At that distance, it had no time to dodge. It could only rely on its own defenses to withstand the blow!

"Boom!!!"

The flaming arrow plunged straight into its broad body. White flames exploded, engulfing it from head to toe.

Some of the flames even pierced straight through its defenses and burrowed into its vulnerable insides.

Empowered by Gangsha, the level-two Fierce Fist had as much power against a single target as two Nine Palaces spells.

The Venomous Corpse General had already endured plenty of magic. Now, faced with this terrifying blow, even a Great General would be crippled if it survived!

Sure enough, when most of the flames cleared, over half the Venomous Corpse General's body had been burned to charcoal. Fire still burned across it, steadily eating away at what remained of its broken form.

"Roar!!!"

Just as victory seemed close, the Venomous Corpse General roared with a sudden burst of strength.

The charred half of its body cracked and crumbled. The Female-Headed Wolf Corpse, still locked in battle with the Flame Demon Tiger, seemed to sense something and charged over without regard for anything else.

Great sheets of corrosive liquid poured from the wounds. The instant the two corpses touched, they began fusing together before everyone's eyes.

The tenacity of a Great General-level Demon Beast was terrifying!

"Finish it now! Don't let them fuse!" Zhou Sining roared.

He wasted no time, rapidly drawing another Star Map.

The others, battered as they were, also sensed the Venomous Corpse General's strength slowly returning. Knowing how grave the situation was, they hurriedly hurled spells at it.

Intermediate Magic took too long to cast, so they used Beginner Magic spells one after another to hinder it and buy Zhou Sining time.

Zhou Sining did not disappoint. Under the threat of death, he drew his Star Map half a second faster and threw another punch before the Venomous Corpse General could finish fusing!

"Gangsha · Fierce Fist · Earth Fiend!"

An enormous pillar of flame nearly thirty meters across erupted from beneath the ground.

Still in the midst of fusing, the Venomous Corpse General could no longer escape. The devastating strike destroyed it completely!!!
