Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master



So it was expected for them to have tacit understanding, and work like a team.

They didn't meet any strong resistance for half an hour before they finally became close enough from the remaining two gates. "Will we try and smash through these, or go around?" Sloth shouted, and William gave him the answer. They took a little detour around, evading these two sources of trouble.

William had the ability to smash these gates, and yet he didn't do it. That made everyone realise he must have another purpose for these, yet they didn't have time to think about it.

They were now facing tons of enemies, mainly from the high-end stage. Each step was taken now with absolute difficulty, and yet they kept crushing anything coming and blocking their path, slowly pulling distance away from these gates.

*Roar!*

Just after two hours, and when everyone crossed half the distance towards the edge of this place, William suspected the dark master leaders had already exhausted their tricks and defences so far.

Yet a fierce roar came before many winged monsters appeared. They came from a direction far from them, coming from one opening at the ceiling.

"New incoming!"

"Monsters are coming from the surface world!"

"They are winged giant birds!"

Many shouted in alarm, and everyone felt quite the pressure. They were left in the open, surrounded by tons of hard to deal with enemies. They had no terrain to hold at, nothing to defend themselves against the incoming monsters. And now they had to fend off against flying beasts.

Yet the only one who got excited was William. "They aren't dragons, but they are like the great Rocks in the outer world… Not bad!" William couldn't tell the real breed of these monsters, but he could tell these were related in one way or another to the great Rocks birds in the outer world.

These great Rocks were formed mainly of rocks as if giant birds got petrified and turned to stones. Instead of turning to statues, they weren't less livelier than any other monster.

Having bodies made out of rocks gave them a huge boost of defence, and their unique method of raining down rocks from high altitudes made it quite annoying to handle their attacks. William knew they were immune to fire, lightning, and even earth elements. They were a problem indeed, but he knew the right way to handle them.

"Any water-based masters here? Gather up, all come in the middle of the group," William suddenly shouted, and everyone knew he must have a way to handle these monsters.

"They are formed of rocks! We need to hit them with fire!" Sloth argued.

"No, fire will take a long time to melt these rocks," Fang shook his head, releasing a barrage of his lightning formation before adding, "Let's use lightning…"

"Just let the water-based masters come here now!" William also called all of his monstrous weapons, "We will halt our advance for now, spread out the line, let's cover the furthest area we can control."

"..."

It was indeed quite crazy to do so. They weren't that far off the two troublesome gates. And if they stopped, they'd give the enemy time to gather up, arrange their lines, and come at them with much harder does to counter.

They knew once stopped, it'd be too damn challenging to return moving forward again. Yet William was acting stubborn and even asked for one of the most useless element-based masters against such monsters.

"You are making a formation?!!" Fang wasn't the only one who noticed what William's monstrous weapons were doing, but everyone else, "isn't it a waste? Using such formation to augment water-based masters? It'd be better to use this for fire or even on me!"

"Shut up already," William was focusing on the incoming monsters. They appeared from one hole at first, but now they came from at least twenty. They were building up their numbers while drawing too fast towards here.

Even if they were made out of rocks, even if they had very heavy and giant bodies, they could still fly light and fast. William knew the moment they appeared here, they'd rain everyone with rocks.

So he turned towards the twenty water-based masters gathered here. He recognised one of them, as he was one of the high-end masters who used their techniques before.

He was quite excited to have the ability to use this formation. He showed five of his deadliest techniques and was wondering which one William would suggest to use.

"I want you to use all of your five techniques you performed before," and when the mass was wondering about this, William suddenly said, "As for others, release any technique you have, as long as it's fierce and strong. You'll release the techniques continuously, and won't take a break. Make sure to replenish your spirit power, get it?"

"They won't take a five-minute break?!!!" Fang shouted from the front before anyone else would say a single comment.

"No time for that," William didn't explain anything. The moment his monstrous weapons built the formation, he retreated with them to another spot, "attack on my mark, and don't stop until we get all of these monsters."

He didn't say anything about his real intentions. Having such giant Rock monsters by his side was a great boost. But there was another catch other than how to hunt them down, which was how to entrap them.

If they were in another place, then he'd have simply used different methods and got enough time to play with these monsters. But now, there was no time for that.

He didn't want to kill these monsters, but he would do so if his rash idea failed. As the masters stood in the heart of the formation, waiting for his signal, and as everyone else was fighting monsters and dark masters while anticipating what he was going to do, William did something weird.

He asked his four monstrous weapons to start digging the ground. In a few minutes, deep holes appeared.
