……

The Chen family's allied forces tore open the Ironjaw Fortress's defenses with lightning speed. The main land force surged into the huge breach like a flood, carrying stones, flames, and the stench of blood!

However, the battle did not end there; instead, it entered a more brutal phase of urban warfare.

The entrance area was small, and the hundreds of guards previously deployed by the Bone Digging Group were almost wiped out by the initial fierce attack of the allied forces, but the interior space of the fortress was huge.

As soon as the allied forces broke in, they spread out like a fan, advancing vigorously towards the central area along the wide main road and the passageways and platforms on both sides of the fortress.

Leaders such as Chen Zhang, Ximen Wenye, and Yang Zhicheng also personally oversaw the operation, directing their respective forces.

However, as the battle lines lengthened and the space expanded, the intensity of resistance faced by the allied forces also increased dramatically!

The more than two thousand true desperados of the Bone-Digging Gang, veteran bandits who had been licking blood from the edge of their knives for decades, finally unleashed their ferocious nature.

Taking advantage of the fortress's complex terrain—stone houses, high platforms, narrow alleyways, and piles of wrecked mine carts—they launched a fierce counterattack.

It was no longer a large-scale battle between armies, but a bloody close-quarters combat and omnipresent cold arrows.

In an instant, blood and flesh flew everywhere!
At the front of the allied forces, a Yang family melee soul master who had just pierced the enemy with a spear was instantly impaled in the neck by a poisoned crossbow bolt shot from the shadows to the side, and he fell down clutching his throat.

A swordsman from the Ximen family roared and cleaved off the heads of two bandits, but was smashed into a bloody pulp by a giant boulder burning with scalding oil that fell from the platform above.
The desperate members of the Bone-Digging Gang suddenly emerged from broken windows, collapsed corners, and even underground tunnels, clutching lit explosives or brandishing poisoned bone blades, howling as they charged at the Allied ranks. Even if they were torn to pieces, they would use their last strength to drag one or two down with them.

In the air, the flying soul masters led by Ma Zhibin also faced increased pressure.

In addition to the dense barrage of soul skills and crossbow bolts of various attributes below, there was also a swarm of venomous giant bats trained by the Bone Digging Gang, with wingspans of nearly two meters, swooping down from the dark dome with screams, entangled with the flying units by their sharp claws and spitting acid.

In the center of the battlefield, Jian Hezhi, a high-level Soul Saint, had a solemn expression.

A dark crystal bottle, emitting a deep, eerie light, floated above his head, and his seventh soul ring shone brightly.

"Seventh Soul Skill: Martial Soul True Body!"

A gigantic phantom of a black crystal bottle enveloped him, with tangible black mist constantly pouring from its mouth.

With a series of waving hands, the ink mist sometimes transformed into a tough "ink rope cage," binding a dozen or so agile soul masters from the Bone Digging Group who were attempting to launch a sneak attack on the flank of the allied forces, making them move with difficulty and slow as if trapped in a quagmire.
At other times, it condenses into "purifying mirrors" that shimmer with a lustrous sheen, precisely projecting onto the core members of one's own side who are struggling in battle, dispelling negative statuses (such as toxins and fear), and slightly boosting soul power and the speed of injury recovery.

One of the beams of bright light landed on Xia Yun, who was not far away, instantly reviving her greatly depleted soul power.

Xia Yun's eyes sharpened upon receiving support. As a powerful illusionist, he knew that he needed to disrupt the enemy's morale on a large scale at this moment.

Fifth Soul Skill: Illusory Moon Realm!

A hazy, psychedelic crescent moon rose behind her, enveloping a large area in front of her.

The ruthless bandits of the Bone-Digging Gang felt the scenery before their eyes distort, and the figures of their comrades became blurry. It was as if countless enemies were attacking from all directions, and fear and chaos spread instantly!
Immediately afterward, Xia Yun's sixth spirit ring shone brightly. "Sixth Spirit Skill: Illusion Space - Inner Demons Abound!"

The invisible spiritual fluctuations spread, further expanding and deepening the scope of the Illusionary Moon Realm.

The covered enemies no longer see simple illusions, but rather their deepest fears emerge—the death of loved ones seeking revenge, scenes of defeat, betrayal by comrades… Those with weaker minds immediately descend into madness, either clutching their heads and screaming, or swinging their knives at the “illusions” around them, which are actually their own comrades!

Under the cover of two illusions, Xia Yun's right arm bone flashed.

"Right Arm Bone - Falling Petals!"

Countless petals, formed from soul power and with sharp, knife-like edges, appeared out of thin air, spinning and cutting at high speed like a pink death storm, sweeping towards the enemies who were caught off guard or confused by the illusion, leaving behind patches of blood and severed limbs!

This underground city in the Huagai District, as the northeastern region of the Tiandou Empire—this underground hub connecting the most prosperous and bustling area above ground—is far more profound than it appears.

The fact that the Bone-Digging Gang can dominate this place shows that their strength is not just for show.

Even after the allied forces breached their gates, and despite such a fierce surprise attack and illusionary attacks, the remaining core members continued to put up a fierce resistance, displaying extremely high combat skills.

When the Chen family's allied forces had painstakingly advanced five or six hundred meters and penetrated into the central area of ​​the fortress, the battlefield became more open. However, this also meant that the allied forces' high-end combat power was inevitably dispersed, and each of them faced the strongest core force of the Bone Digging Group.

"Boom!!!"

With a dull thud like a giant hammer smashing a mountain, Zhu Yanfeng's tens-of-meters-tall boulder statue shuddered violently, and a deep crater was blasted into its massive stone armor shield, with spiderweb-like cracks spreading outwards.

The immense impact forced even the rock giant to take a step back.

Blocking his way was an exceptionally tall and burly figure clad in heavy metal armor.

Most striking was his jaw—a menacing jaw that was firmly encased and covered by a dark, metallic-looking gauntlet that extended to both sides of his neck, exuding a chilling aura of strength and ferocity.

It was none other than the leader of the Bone-Digging Gang—"Iron Jaw" Patton!
His eyes were as cold as knives, sweeping over the ravaged battlefield and his falling men. There was no trace of pity on his face, only a pure, steely ruthlessness.

Compassion does not command troops!

He didn't make a move when the gate was breached. Instead, he calmly waited for the main Allied forces to penetrate deep into the fortress and get bogged down in street fighting before intercepting the enemy's strongest defensive pillar and advancing weapon at the most critical moment.

"Hmph!" Barton's voice, filled with rage, came from beneath the metal jaw. "A bunch of pampered rich kids, daring to run wild on my turf? You killed so many of my brothers, you'll pay with your bones!"

Zhu Yanfeng's massive rocky head roared, "Barton! Your Bone-Digging Gang has committed countless evils and ravaged the underground world. Today is your end! Surrender and we'll leave you with a whole corpse!"

"A complete corpse?" Barton let out a piercing laugh. "The greatest mercy I've ever shown in my life is leaving someone a complete corpse! Sixth Soul Skill - Iron Crocodile Crushing Bite!"

His entire body erupted with a thick, earthy-yellow soul light, transforming into an enormous, metallic crocodile phantom covered in serrated fangs. With a terrifying power capable of shattering mountains and splitting the earth, it viciously bit towards Zhu Yanfeng's boulder statue!

Zhu Yanfeng roared, and his massive rocky arm, along with his shield, slammed into the attack: "Secret Technique - Immovable as a Mountain!"

The two powerful forces collided violently, and the shockwave instantly cleared away the surrounding rubble and debris!
