We report a carbothermal reduction process for massive synthesis of monolithic W$_{18}$O$_{49}$ phase from tungsten oxide in the presence of carbon source. Carbon black powder was used as a carbon source and added to WO$_3$ by 40 weight percent. Bundles of W$_{18}$O$_{49}$ rods were formed over the temperature range of 80$0^{\circ}C$$^{\circ}C$ to 90$0^{\circ}C$. Pure W$_{18}$O$_{49}$ bundles could be separated from the mixture of W$_{18}$O$_{49}$ and residual carbon black powder. Field emission character of W$_{18}$O$_{49}$ phase was determined using the extracted W$_{18}$O$_{49}$ rods. Flat lamp fabricated from the W$_{18}$O$_{49}$ rods showed the turn-on field of 9.3 V/${\mu}m$.
