At Luna's command, the Phoenix Clan elite warriors all transformed into their true forms, spouting Phoenix True Fire toward the surrounding forests. In an instant, flames swept through the mountains.
For a moment, the blaze lit up the entire Sky-mist Canyon.
Amidst the thick smoke, Great Shaman Ignis Fawkes suddenly took out a Bone Bell, sliced open her wrist to let her blood drip onto it, then began shaking it wildly, muttering, "Spirit, return—"
A sinister wind rose up as Celestia Fawkes' rotting corpse convulsed violently. A wisp of remnant soul was forcibly torn out, writhing and twisting into a blurry humanoid shape within the flames.
"Great Shaman... it hurts so much..."
The remnant soul let out a heartbreaking wail.
"System, what's that old hag up to?"
Luna hid behind an ancient tree a hundred meters away, asking in her mind.
Isn't this... some kind of summoning ritual?
