Immortal Martial Saint, something's wrong with my entry.

"What did you say?"

"I'm telling you, don't overthink it..."

Bang!

An ice wall suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the path of the Sky-Piercing Shuttle, and the shuttle crashed straight into it.

The Sky Shuttle was embedded straight in the ice wall, and the scattered ice shards, carrying a hint of coldness, brushed against Li Youan's face.

"Hey, that's what I wanted to say."

"If things were so easy to solve, why not just give everyone a flying magic weapon?"

The ice wall was extremely thick; the Sky Shuttle hadn't even broken through one-fifth of its thickness. Li Youan and his companion were now trapped in mid-air.

Seeing the Frost Crane approaching at breakneck speed, Li Youan waved his left hand, and array flags and array plates flew out like stars.

"Mist Formation"

Immediately, a thick fog enveloped the area within a radius of several dozen feet, centered on the Sky-Piercing Shuttle.

Li Youan left the core array plate on the Sky-Piercing Shuttle, and then continuously placed spirit stones from the Heavenly Pivot Ring around the array plate. Seeing this, Dongfang Jinghong waved his hand, and the Sky-Piercing Shuttle was immediately filled with spirit stones.

"Don't worry about spirit stones, I have plenty here."

Upon hearing Dongfang Jinghong's words, Li Youan did not argue with her, but instead became somewhat curious.

"What else did you bring? Do you have any magical items that can clear the area outright?"

"Do you think that kind of thing might wipe us both out too?"

"Ah, haha, did you bring anything useful? Don't you understand what I mean?!"

Dongfang Jinghong felt somewhat embarrassed upon hearing Li Youan's words.

"Besides all these magical treasures, I also brought a lot of pills. I didn't expect this to happen. But I have plenty of spirit stones, so I don't have to worry about running out."

Li Youan casually shot down a Frostsnow Crane that rushed towards him, saying this as he spoke.

"Given the current situation, we might not even be able to use it all, and then we'll be left with nothing."

"Having a lot of spirit stones is useless. This isn't a defensive formation, and with so many demonic beasts, I don't think even a Xuan-level formation could withstand it."

"Never mind, let's just say 'all birds pay homage to the phoenix'."

As Li Youan spoke, he channeled his inner energy into his spear, and a giant golden bird broke through the mist and flew toward the flock of birds.

In an instant, dozens of Frostcraps were killed, but there were simply too many Frostcraps. Many of them still managed to break through the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix and find the two of them in the mist, rushing to their side.

Because Li Youan also had to focus on controlling the formation, Dongfang Jinghong took charge of dealing with the Frost Cranes that suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Return to Origin Sword Technique - Return to Yang Sword".

The scorching sword energy flew out continuously, slaying the Frost Crane that suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Return to Origin Sword Technique - Return to Origin Sword".

Just as the golden giant bird in the distance was about to disappear, Dongfang Jinghong also swung his sword, the cyan longsword continuing to kill the flock of birds in the direction of the golden giant bird.

But in the end, they were unable to break through the flock; there were simply too many Frost and Snow Cranes in the Kaiyuan Realm.

"No, they've already pinpointed our location."

More and more frost-covered cranes broke through the mist. After unleashing several blazing sword energies, Dongfang Jinghong spoke to Li Youan beside him.

"Then let's retreat and change our location."

Li Youan shrunk the size of the Sky Shuttle and withdrew from the ice wall.

He then activated the mist array with all his might, and the area of ​​the mist, centered on the Sky Shuttle, doubled in size.

Li Youan carefully controlled the Sky Shuttle to fly to the side, but at this time, except for the direction of the ice wall, the area was already surrounded by Frost and Snow Cranes.

After killing dozens of Frostcranes, Dongfang Jinghong sensed the rate at which his internal energy was being depleted.

"Li Youan, we have to think of a way. At this rate, we can't recover our energy. We can't hold out for much longer."

At this moment, Li Youan and Dongfang Jinghong had both swallowed two Guiyuan Pills. Even though the side effects of Guiyuan Pills were minor, this method of consumption still posed a risk.

Let me think about it.

Li Youan unleashed several more shots, killing a few more Frost Cranes, and began to observe how to escape.

As more and more Frost Cranes approached him, Li Youan knew that the Mist Formation had completely lost its effectiveness.

He made a hand seal with his left hand, and the array flags changed. The mist gradually dissipated, and many vines appeared out of thin air.

"Vine Binding Formation, Entanglement."

Some frost-covered cranes, caught off guard, were caught in the vines and strangled to death.

cracking!

A loud cry came from behind the flock of birds, and the surrounding frost-covered cranes moved closer, making their space even smaller.

But in this confined space, the vines were more effective at hindering the frost-covered cranes than the mist.

Using the vines as cover, Dongfang Jinghong rushed into the flock of birds, transforming into countless forms, and continuously unleashing blazing sword energy.

"Illusory Sword Technique: Myriad Shadows".

"Return to Origin Sword Technique - Return to Yang Sword".

The flaming swords ignited the vines and killed the surrounding Frost Cranes as well.

"A hundred birds pay homage to the phoenix!"

Taking advantage of the fire, Li Youan swung his spear again, and the golden giant bird seemed to be surrounded by a layer of fiery armor, repeatedly crashing into the flock of frost and snow cranes.

Apart from the Frost and Snow Cranes in the Kaiyuan Realm, all the other Frost and Snow Cranes were burned and scalded.

Li Youan narrowed his eyes. "Now."

With a wave of his left hand, he sent the last array plate and flag into the air.

"Golden Sword Formation"

The Frost Cranes that had just been burned and scalded were all pierced and killed by the light swords shot out from the Golden Light Sword Formation.

Li Youan watched the rapidly increasing Origin Points on the panel, gritting his teeth and persevering. As long as he could accumulate enough, he could raise his cultivation to the Opening Origin Realm and even extract new entries.

After observing the surrounding scenery, Li Youan said to Dongfang Jinghong.

"We only have one path left now: to fight to the death and then survive."

"Stop talking nonsense and get to the point."

At this moment, Dongfang Jinghong's hair was plastered to her skin with sweat, and sweat was also running down her cheeks.

Li Youan looked at the flock of birds around him and gestured to Dongfang Jinghong.

"You see, even though the flock of birds has us tightly surrounded, they are still using their usual hunting methods."

"They might be worried that if we try to break through to the rear and below, the number of birds behind and below would far exceed that above."

"I'll unleash the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix downwards with all my might to attract the attention of the Frost Cranes from other directions. You can then launch a surprise attack from above. After creating an opening in the flock, I'll control the Sky Shuttle to break through from above."

Dongfang Jinghong thought for a moment and then nodded quickly, as there was no better method at the moment.

This time, Li Youan mobilized all the vital energy in his body and swung his spear downwards.

A giant golden phoenix, over a hundred feet long, flew towards the flock of birds below.

Even as it flew, the golden phoenix cried out. Although it was only a phantom of a phoenix, its suppression of avian demonic beasts came from the depths of its bloodline.

Dozens of Frostcrackers were killed the moment they made contact.
