A chill gripped Ji Mingfeng's heart. The Mutant Beasts had actually laid an ambush.
The six venerables had fallen into danger. These were not Shapeshifting Realm beasts, but Heaven Piercing Realm beasts. The energy alarms were blaring madly, leaving him rattled.
"They're Heaven-tier Mutant Beasts! Sword array!"
Miaoyin barked the order. All six formed a sword array, their immense energies pouring out and converging into a gigantic phantom swordsman. With a massive sword in its hands, it resembled a heavenly god.
"Sword Array: Flame-Shattering Slash!"
Standing at the array core, Miaoyin cried out. All six moved together, and the giant strode forward, swinging its massive sword down. A sword ray thirty thousand meters long tore through heaven and earth as it descended.
With a thunderous boom, flames exploded. The giant bird was slashed back and retreated with a startled screech.
The giant was also driven back several steps. With every step it took, the void trembled.
All six had turned slightly pale, their expressions grave. Together, their sword array unleashed the combat strength of the Spirit Roaming Realm and even drove back a Heaven-tier Mutant Beast. Ji Mingfeng could not help letting out a breath.
The Giant Sole roared, stirring up a towering wave that crashed toward the giant. Its terrifying power shattered even the void.
"Sword Array: Wave-Cleaving!"
Miaoyin barked out the command. The giant turned and slashed with its massive sword, splitting the towering wave. Boundless surges of water burst outward, and the Sea Kun was also driven back by the blade. Yet the giant formed by the six was forced back several more steps.
The six turned pale, and the giant's phantom form began to waver.
Before they could even consider retreating, the Crimson Flame Giant Bird swooped at them again with a piercing screech.
