Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

If not for the unexpected timely help of other spirit masters still pouring here, their death was going to be set in stone already.

"Stop!"

Just when everyone thought they were going to throw their lives at the rapidly approaching deadly enemies from the forest, William suddenly raised his fist while shouting for them to stop.

The entire group of youngsters stopped first, with panting breaths and mixed looks of exhaustion, rage, excitement, and fear.

They knew they were going to die if they clashed with the terrifying things reshaping the entire forest around the clan. And knowing such a thing held a heavy impact over their hearts and minds.

It felt like a heavy rock was placed over their chests, making their breaths hard and ragged. If not for the general strong atmosphere gained by the addition of stronger and older spirit masters during the past minutes, they'd have not managed to reach even half of the distance they crossed so far or kill half of the monsters they slain.

"It's time for you to know what we are doing here," unlike what everyone expected, William suddenly spoke such weird and illogical words.

He repeated his bizarre attitude he showed since the first moment they saw him again! And that made many roll their eyes in helpless way.

They already grew dull of such weird kid!

"Brother William, there is no need to say anything," Kong was already accepting the fact of his death, just like everyone else, "it's an honour to die on the battlefield defending my people."

"Shut up already!" William briskly shouted to silence him before he suddenly retrieved a spear from his storage ring, "I didn't ask you to do all this and come all the way here just to throw away your lives. Follow my orders to the letter and there is a great chance that most of us will celebrate our victory tonight."

"..."

If he said such words while they were on the walls, they might have believed him. Or even they might have accepted such a lie and convinced themselves to buy it.

But right now? Saying all this right now? It was impossible even to convince themselves to believe such a lie! It was impossible to lie to themselves in front of the door of death!

"I want to say that… You did really great in this fight," William moved his eyes around, not faking his tone and words, "for many times, I thought you'd turn around and run. Yet you stuck around, and even if this annoyed me a little, I'm greatly appreciative of your courage and loyalty."

'What the heck is this dude saying?' all of the young spirit masters here couldn't help but ask the same question in their minds.

"Now it's time for me to explain everything you died to know before," he said but unlike what he declared, he turned to Berry and added, "ask the spirit masters to expand around, create enough vacancy for the things we made. I also need one spirit master with a strong earth related spirit element and techniques, a gold grade at least if possible."

William wanted to give such demands out for the spirit masters around in person. But he knew, as an outsider, none would answer him.

So, it was better to ask for Berry to do it. After all, without her presence here, this miracle wouldn't have happened.

"This…"

"I know it's hard to find one here, but I need someone to blast open the ground and expose what lies underneath," William had to explain further. After all this was the Long clan, one who excelled at fire element and fire related techniques, not Earth element and techniques.

"Ok," Berry helplessly sighed. She got used to how illogical this kid in front of her would act all the time. Yet she still trusted him and decided to do as he asked.

She turned and shouted at the people around. Her words landed before everyone started to move according to what she said.

In the middle of all this mess, the shout of someone they trusted was enough to make everyone respond.

"Young miss, I'm here to help."

"I can use piercing explosive shots to uncover deep earth layers."

"I can ask magma to come out and create holes in the ground!"

More of such gold ranked spirit masters stepped forward to answer Berry's call.

After all, the strongest spirit masters here were of gold grade calibre.

Berry got relieved when she heard these shouts, and yet she didn't know what to do. So, she turned to William, silently asking him by using her eyes about what to say or do next.

After all, it was William who asked her to do it.

"You three are enough," William took over from her at this point, "see this piece of land there? Open it apart."

William pointed at the place which appeared after the spirit masters started to expand outwards instead of sticking around them.

It might have brought much trouble to them, but William ignored this all. The monsters were already flocking this region in dense numbers, and it proved so hard to create enough space for what he wanted to do.

"Make sure to not harm anyone," William added, while motioning his head to the inner side of the circle of spirit masters who were pushing the line outwards.

"Young miss…" The three spirit masters who were in their early thirties looked at Berry who simply nodded.

*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*

And like that, three violent explosions occurred. One of them even was so fierce to release out a large fountain of magma.

The spirit master who did it had to interfere again. He executed another technique and led the magma away, letting it fall over a large number of monsters clustered just nearby. And with such a simple act the area available to William and others got expanded by at least one fold.

"Great job," William commended before walking slowly and steadily towards the three big holes in the ground.

"What is he trying to do?"
