That black avian beast was extremely fast, plunging down above the group in the blink of an eye, its talons sharp as blades as it lunged at Lin Feng. Lin Feng swung the Thousand-Illusion Glazed Sword, sending a multicolored sword beam surging into the sky to slash at the creature's claws. With a crisp clang and a splash of sparks, the avian beast's talons proved astonishingly hard, leaving only a shallow mark upon collision with the Thousand-Illusion Glazed Sword.
Having missed its initial strike, the avian beast beat its massive wings, whipping up a violent gale. The wind swept past like slicing blades, making it nearly impossible for the group to keep their footing. Seeing this, the Little White Beast spat out a thick pillar of ice from its mouth, shooting it straight toward the avian beast. Sidestepping, the avian beast easily dodged the ice pillar, then opened its beak to spew a stream of black flames that rolled toward the Little White Beast like a fiery dragon.
The Cyan-Scaled Beast hurriedly erected an earthen wall in front of the Little White Beast. The wall was instantly swallowed by the black flames with a sizzling sound, reduced to ashes in no time at all. Yet this brief obstruction gave the Little White Beast the opportunity to cast another spell. A surge of intense frigid energy radiated from the Little White Beast, instantly freezing the surrounding air to form a thick ice shield that protected itself and its nearby companions.
