As Ye Xi's situation gradually improved, Michael led twenty black birds and instantly rushed into the heart of the mountains.
With the ability to fly, their progress was unimpeded, and they spewed flames along the way, as if the entire mountain range was ablaze.
"Chirp~~~" At this moment, a new bird song rang out from the mountains. Michael narrowed his eyes, his sharp eyes piercing through the darkness, and saw huge black-feathered vultures taking off from the forest and rushing towards them.
"Watch out, something's coming!" Michael said in a deep voice. All the black birds cried out, their eyes showing no fear as they continued to rush forward.
The Nine Heavens Mystic Bird is a fighting species by nature, so how could it fear a flock of Black Feather Vultures? Even if these vultures have strength of level 4 or above.
"Retreat! Detour!" Michael shouted in a deep voice, but found that the black birds ignored him and continued to rush forward. His expression changed drastically.
That's a massive flock of vultures, so large they blot out the sky! Normally, you'd be thinking about how to escape if you encountered one, and you just recklessly charged in?
Michael was immediately overwhelmed. Could he even lead the team anymore? They were all disobedient!
"It's alright, let's give it a shot. The Black Bird is the king of all birds, how could a flock of black-feathered vultures stop it?" At this moment, Ye Chen's voice came through Jian Mengyi's communication, clearly he was also paying close attention to the battle situation here!
Upon hearing this, Michael stopped insisting and followed behind the Black Birds, letting them rush past.
"Chirp~~~" Twenty black birds, their entire bodies transformed into flames, like twenty firebirds composed of flames, charged into the flock of black-feathered vultures.
Instantly, the twenty black birds were like sparks falling into black water, completely engulfed by darkness.
Michael's forward momentum faltered, momentarily unsure whether he should continue charging in. Judging by the situation, those twenty Xuan Birds were probably gone, right? Probably? Was that right?
"Chirp~~~" Just then, a large number of chirps suddenly came from the flock of birds, and a scorching heat rose from the flock of black-feathered vultures. Michael even felt red flames flickering in the darkness.
"Kill!" With a gritted tooth, Michael raised the Radiant Sword in his hand, and a terrifying holy aura began to gather. A huge sword of light descended from the sky and swept towards the flock of vultures.
Michael, having reached the 5th rank and ascended to the rank of a four-winged angel, was now able to wield the true Archangel's Sword without the aid of his race. The terrifying holy sword light swept across, turning all the black-feathered vultures it touched into dust, including those that had barely reached the 5th rank.
At the same time, the flames buried in the flock of black-feathered vultures finally erupted completely, and streaks of fire emerged, igniting all the black-feathered vultures along the way. A huge firebird soared into the sky, its body formed of flames, wantonly burning everything around it. The dazzling light and the Archangel's Sword beside it each illuminated half of the sky.
But soon, as the Archangel's Sword ran out of energy, only the dazzling body of the giant firebird remained in the sky, leaving ashes in its wake.
"Too powerful!" Jian Mengyi murmured through Michael's projection. Her angels were absolutely unable to use this kind of power at the moment. Even Michael could only watch helplessly from the sidelines. With most of her energy depleted, she could do nothing.
Of course, there was nothing for her to do at this time. The enormous firebird was so big that it could only be described as covering the sky and sun. It was as big as half of a flock of black-feathered vultures. The flames swept across and burned all the black-feathered vultures to ashes. Only a few scattered and fled, and they were no longer a threat.
The power of the Black Birds refreshed Michael's understanding for the first time. Previously, she only cared about the three-legged golden crow that was vying with them for the authority of light. Now, in her eyes, these Black Birds were simply the embodiment of fire.
"Chirp~~~" As the flock of black-feathered vultures dispersed, the huge firebirds in the sky let out a series of cries. The flames gradually dissipated, turning into twenty smaller firebirds, and finally into twenty black birds.
"Ah~~~" A series of exclamations came from the sky. Michael was stunned for a moment. He rushed over, picked up the nearest Silver Moon Elf, threw it onto the back of the Black Bird next to him, and then went to save the next person.
These were Ye Ying and the others who had been on the back of the Black Birds. As the Black Birds merged, they also experienced a thrilling scene.
As the Black Birds charged into the vulture flock, everyone was prepared to die. But when the Black Birds merged, everyone was enveloped and protected by a warm flame. Then they experienced the most shocking scene, which was clearly visible from the very first moment. This left an indelible impression on everyone's hearts.
The angel who followed her even mastered a holy flame on the spot, and a second pair of illusory wings appeared on her back. She had obviously found an opportunity to advance, and all she needed was some time to settle down.
Ye Ying and the others also gained some understanding of fire energy. Many Silver Moon Elves and other elves even mastered a trace of fire magic energy fluctuations, possessing the potential to become fire magicians.
Only a few goblins who had survived by sheer luck remained unconscious, completely unaware that they were about to be smashed into a pulp.
"Chirp~~~" The black birds, having regained their senses, turned around and flew towards Ye Ying and the others who had fallen. Only after everyone was rescued did everyone finally breathe a sigh of relief.
If he were to fall to his death, that would be such a terrible injustice.
At the same time, Ye Ying, who was sitting on the back of the black bird, noticed a trace of fatigue in the bird's eyes.
Having retracted their flames, they had returned to their normal Xuan Bird forms. However, all the Xuan Birds were gently flapping their wings, no longer displaying their previous prowess. Clearly, the fusion had consumed a great deal of their energy.
Fortunately, this battle burned not only the Black Feather Vultures, but also a large number of Dark Demon Trees. The mountains below were covered in ashes, all of which were the burned corpses of the Demon Trees.
“Roar~~~” Suddenly, a roar rang out. Michael and the others looked up and saw a huge demonic shadow dancing on the distant mountain. The roar came from there.
“A very powerful aura, at least at the peak of the fifth rank or even the sixth rank. Let’s go back and rejoin the main force!” Michael said in a deep voice, leading everyone to turn around and fly back in the direction they came from.
