Guided by the map, Lin Yu and his three companions traversed vast deserts, deep forests, and roaring rivers, finally arriving at the foot of the Holy Mountain of Light. The mountain soared into the clouds, its peak shrouded in a golden glow, resembling an inviolable sacred fairyland. Yet, a dangerous aura permeated the base of the mountain, chilling the bone.
Stepping into the mountain's domain, a flock of giant golden eagles swooped down from the sky. These massive beasts had wingspans of several dozen meters, talons like sharp steel blades, and fierce glares in their eyes. Seeing this, Lin Yu immediately unleashed the Nine Nether Thunder Prison Martial Skill, sending black lightning surging toward the eagles. But the creatures were exceptionally agile, easily dodging the lightning and continuing their charge.
Murong Xue deployed the Ice-Thunder Divine Ability, forming a zone of ice and lightning across the sky in an attempt to block them. Plunging into the frigid zone, the eagles were struck by the ice and thunder, letting out piercing cries. However, there were too many of them, coming wave after wave without the slightest intention of retreating. Su Yao manipulated the Thunder Flame Cauldron, using its thunder-flame power to create a wall of fire in the air that forced back a portion of the eagles. Meanwhile, Liu Ruyan chanted a Buddha Mantra to reinforce everyone's defenses while searching for the beasts' weak points.
