Demonic Bird

A strange, shrill screeching sound rang out, and a large patch of black specks appeared in the high sky.

Han Changming knew these were monster birds.

He quickly took out five Chain Fireball Talismans and held them in his hand.

"Watch out for the monster birds' attack, Changming, get ready."

Han Debiao warned him, his tone stern.

Han Changming had not made a move yet precisely to guard against the monster birds; as a talisman maker, he had quite a few talismans on hand.

"Understood, Fifth Uncle, you all be careful too." Han Changming nodded.

The black specks moved at an incredible speed. Soon, Han Changming could see their true form: a flock of Dove-Faced Monster Birds covered in black feathers, including two second-tier monster birds and over a dozen first-tier ones.

The monster birds were agile, far beyond what a Qi Refining cultivator could handle alone.

Han Deling and Liu Ruoyun flew toward them on their magic tools, moving at high speed.

As soon as the Dove-Faced Monster Birds approached the island, they released a massive wave of black Wind Blades, forming a giant black net of wind that shrouded Han Changming and the others.

Han Changming did not dare to be slow; he immediately threw the five Chain Fireball Talismans in his hand, which transformed into dozens of Crimson Fireballs that smashed toward the Dove-Faced Monster Birds.

Han Debiao and the others quickly cast defensive spells on themselves. The sudden appearance of this flock of Dove-Faced Monster Birds made them a bit flustered, but their formation remained intact.

Boom!

A series of deafening roars erupted as a vast sea of crimson flames spread through the void, temporarily blocking the Dove-Faced Monster Birds.

Han Delei had been prepared; he took out a palm-sized Purple Gourd and cast a spell on it. The Purple Gourd instantly expanded, its surface carved with a lifelike purple centipede.

With a "pop," the stopper of the Purple Gourd flew off, and a massive cloud of purple poisonous mist surged out, striking the Dove-Faced Monster Birds.

When the claws of two Dove-Faced Monster Birds touched a bit of the purple poisonous mist, green smoke immediately rose from them, and the flesh on their claws was rapidly corroded away.

Dozens of Crimson Fireballs slammed into them, rolling flames wrapping around the bodies of the two Dove-Faced Monster Birds, while several thick golden beams of light shot over, piercing through their bodies.

The two Dove-Faced Monster Birds plummeted from mid-air, dead beyond any doubt.

With a strange cry, the two remaining second-tier monster birds dove down, targeting Han Changming directly.

Han Changming remained calm and brought out three white talismans.

First-tier high-grade talismans: Three-Foot Freezing Talisman.

As soon as the three white talismans came within ten feet of the two second-tier monster birds, they burst open, and a vast, bone-chilling cold surged out from them.

The claws of the second-tier monster birds touched a bit of it and quickly froze. They hurriedly pulled away and flew toward the high sky, but affected by the ice-attribute spell, their speed was slower than before.

Ten Chain Fireball Talismans flew over. Boom!

A crimson sea of fire, dozens of feet wide, appeared in the void, radiating astonishing heat.

The sound of wind being torn apart grew loud as dense, black feathers flew out from the sea of fire, striking toward Han Changming.

Han Changming quickly took out a blue bead the size of a dragon's eye. A blue light flew out from the Blue Bead, and a pale blue light screen covered his entire body.

He raised his hand, and five Chain Fireball Talismans flew out, dozens of Crimson Fireballs smashing toward the enemy.

The Crimson Fireballs collided with the black feathers, triggering a series of explosions as crimson flames scattered in all directions.

With a clear cry, the two second-tier monster birds flew out from the sea of fire, their sharp claws pouncing toward Han Changming.

Given the sharpness of their claws, they could easily tear through Han Changming's defense.

A flash of green light appeared as a pale green bead flew over. It spun rapidly, erupting into a large cloud of pungent green poisonous mist. When the two Dove-Faced Monster Birds touched the green poisonous mist, green smoke rose from their bodies, and the feathers on their wings were corroded away in large patches, revealing white bone underneath.

The sound of wind being torn apart rang out as several thick beams of light shot over, striking the two monster birds with muffled "thud" sounds.

The two second-tier monster birds seemed to realize that Han Changming's group was not to be trifled with; they flapped their wings and flew toward the high sky.

Just then, with a "whoosh" of air being pierced, a three-foot-long cyan Wind Blade flew over, targeting one of the second-tier monster birds.

The monster bird hurriedly flapped its wings, trying to dodge, but it was a step too late. The giant cyan blade severed its claw, leaving it dripping with blood.

A sharp, shrill screech rang out as a two-foot-large White Ice Sculpture pounced over, followed by a Cyan Giant Eagle behind it.

The White Ice Sculpture and the Cyan Giant Eagle pounced on the second-tier monster bird with the severed claw from the left and right sides.

The second-tier monster bird tried to flee, but the White Ice Sculpture spat out a massive wave of white cold air, blocking its path. The Cyan Giant Eagle released a large wave of cyan Wind Blades, aggressively slashing toward the second-tier monster bird. That wasn't all; over a dozen glowing magic tools also struck at it.

With a miserable cry, the left wing of this second-tier monster bird was struck by a large wave of cyan Wind Blades. The wing didn't break, but it was bent, and its flight speed was far worse than before.

Over a dozen magic tools hacked into its left wing; although they didn't sever it, they left it dripping with blood, slowing its flight even further.

The White Ice Sculpture circled around and landed on the back of the Dove-Faced Monster Bird, opening its beak to peck at its neck.

The Dove-Faced Monster Bird let out a mournful cry and plummeted from the high sky.

As soon as it hit the ground, over a dozen glowing magic tools swarmed over, hacking it into a pile of minced meat.

The other second-tier monster bird saw that the situation was bad and hurriedly returned to the main flock. It was extremely fast, and Han Deling and Liu Ruoyun did not pursue, letting the flock of monster birds leave.

Han Changming breathed a sigh of relief. The monster birds were very fast; if it hadn't been for Han Deling and Liu Ruoyun making a move, Han Changming would have been in trouble.

A deafening roar came from the northwest corner, and a massive ball of fire appeared there.

"Not good, something happened on Wen Yue's side. Fairy Han, let's hurry over." Liu Ruoyun called out and was the first to fly toward the northwest corner on his magic tool.

"Fifth Brother, you must not be careless; end this battle quickly," Han Deling urged, then controlled her magic tool and flew toward the northwest corner.

"Everyone, put in more effort and wipe out this group of Turtle Beasts as soon as possible," Han Delei commanded.

The four Qi Refining cultivators controlling the formation each cast a series of hand seals into the Formation Disk. Inside the red light barrier, Crimson Fireballs appeared, each the size of a water vat, and smashed toward the Turtle Beasts trapped within the formation.

A series of explosions rang out as the giant fireballs struck the ground, blasting out massive craters and engulfing all the Turtle Beasts in rolling flames.

The Turtle Beasts attacked the formation frantically, but it was destined to be in vain. Their methods were too simple to break through the formation. At first, they were able to strike at the barrier, but as the fire grew, they could not withstand the scorching heat and retracted their heads and limbs into their heavy shells to stay cooler.

This action only made them die faster.

Under the efforts of the four Qi Refining cultivators, the fire continued to grow, and even from a distance, Han Changming could feel the intense, scorching heat.

A short while later, they deactivated the formation. The Turtle Beasts were roasted through, and the air was filled with the scent of charred flesh.
