Soon, the Eagle People grew restless, letting out a wave of cheers.
They began to gather in an organized fashion and retreat into the island's interior.
The few monsters that tried to give chase were swiftly intercepted by Ouyang Yining and the Black Army.
Ouyang Yining was a Blood Ancestor, after all. Though his strength was nothing compared to Lin Hui's, against anyone else, it was a completely different dimension of power.
Once most of the Eagle People had evacuated,
Lin Hui finally grasped Ruyi, drew it slowly, and was about to strike.
Just then, from within the thick, misty clouds above Eagle Person Island, a gigantic bird head the size of a Ferris wheel suddenly burst forth.
The bird's head had dark red feathers, and its eyes looked like burning rubies. It opened its beak toward the island and let out a massive, piercing, terrifying screech.
"This is bad! It's a Giant Phoenix!" Ouyang Yining's face paled the moment he looked up and saw the colossal bird.
