The Sect Leader and Elders of the Sun Sect stood atop the Sun Mountain. Instead of surrendering and joining the Ghost Sect, they were determined to fight to the death.
Their decision completely enraged the Ghost Sect.
"Kill everyone of the Sun Sect! I'll refine them to corpse soldiers," a cold voice emanated from within the Ghost Sect's camp.
The voice was menacing, reverberating through the Sun Mountain.
Instantly, about six hundred unholy figures rushed out from the Ghost Sect's camp. In the front ranks of these were countless corpse soldiers surrounded by intense corpse miasmas. Many corpse generals were among these corpse soldiers. Behind them came the disciples of the Ghost Sect, who were dressed all in black robes and looked rather scary. They ran towards the peak of the Sun Mountain, and the whole mountain started to tremble as booted feet struck stones in the mad ascent to battle.
"They're launching an attack!" Theon cried.
His face and those of the Elders changed. They had fought against the Ghost Sect many times during the past few days, suffering repeated defeats. They, and all the disciples of the Sun Sect, had been cornered on the peak of the Sun Mountain. This was to be their last stand, it seemed.
This time, it appeared that the Ghost Sect planned to wipe all of them out. They came swarming from their camp like hornets from a nest.
As the members of the Ghost Sect came closer and closer, the peak of the Sun Mountain was surrounded by a strong murderous will. The earth shook slightly. The corpse soldiers and corpse generals, surrounded by their dense corpse miasmas, were putting the whole Sun Sect under great pressure.
"Disciples of the Energy Gathering Realm, make groups of three each. Disciples at the preliminary stage of the Earth Realm, work in pairs. Disciples above the medium stage of Earth Realm and Stewards, fight on your own. Elders, let's deal with the corpse generals!
And stay together! Do not leave your post. Let's form a ring and fight against our enemies together!"
Theon commanded in a loud voice as he furrowed his eyebrows at the sight of the fast approaching corpse army.
He knew that the reason why the Ghost Sect was so intimidating was that they had those corpse soldiers and corpse generals to do their fighting and dying for them.
Upon hearing Theon's orders, all members of the Sun Sect replied "yes" in unison. They moved quickly and formed a large ring on the peak of the Sun Mountain, ready to fight against their enemies.
"Gentlemen, this is a life-and-death struggle for the Sun Sect. So let's win, or die trying!"
Theon shouted as battle lust gripped him and his eyes swept over his companions.
Everyone nodded, looking back at the head of the sect. This was indeed a life-and-death fight. Not an inch would be given, in the fight to survive.
"Fight for the Sun Sect!" shouted Elder Jiang.
He was hot-tempered, yet extremely loyal to the sect. When he had first joined the Sun Sect, he had started as a grunt disciple. After many years of hard work, he had finally been promoted to an Elder. He had very deep feelings towards the Sun Sect, and would give his life to save it.
"Fight for the Sun Sect!"
echoed thousands of disciples of the Sun Sect. They were ready for the fight and would give their all.
Their fighting spirits soared aloft. At this moment, surrounded by their companions, they were no longer that afraid of the corpse army.
"Kill them all!"
The members of the Ghost Sect had also arrived.
There were almost four hundred corpse soldiers, fifty corpse generals and more than two hundred disciples of the Ghost Sect, about six hundred in total.
