Battle Lion King

High above, black and purple flames collided. Yet instead of exploding, they intertwined. Everything seemed strangely calm, as though the two forces had become exceptionally gentle.

In the sky, the black and purple flames twisted around each other. Though they appeared calm, they emitted waves of terrifying fluctuations. Stray flames fell into the mountains, igniting raging fires. The surrounding magical beasts scattered of their own accord, avoiding the flying sparks.

Watching the battle overhead, Yun Yun's beautiful eyes filled with shock as she slowly said, "Lin Feng's flames devoured the Purple Flame!"

High in the heavens, the black flames gradually gained the upper hand. The Amethyst Winged Lion King's attack was suppressed, and its terrifying purple flames were actually swallowed by Lin Feng's Chaos Flame.

A flash of shock passed through the Amethyst Winged Lion King's beastly eyes. "Human brat, what kind of flame is that?!"

That energy was so terrifying that it had actually used flames to devour flames. Moreover, it could sense the dreadful power contained within those black flames, as though they could destroy heaven and earth. Most importantly, the instant those black flames appeared, the Purple Flame within its body had been suppressed—or rather, it was afraid.

It was also Lin Feng's first time using Chaos Flame, and he had not expected it to be this powerful. Worthy of being the origin of all flames, it had actually devoured the Purple Flame.

Chaos Flame returned to his body. Seeing the flames burning below, Lin Feng swept his hand, and the fires on the ground were all drawn away.

Looking at the Amethyst Winged Lion King with amusement, Lin Feng smiled. "Looks like you can't use your Purple Flame anymore."

Killing intent flashed through the Amethyst Winged Lion King's beastly eyes. "Brat, don't get cocky. Your flames may be strange, but your strength is far below mine."

Whoosh!

The next moment, the Lion King vanished from where it stood, leaving behind only a streak of light. Yun Yun's expression changed. "Watch your back!"

Lin Feng's face changed as he spun around sharply, black flames coiling around his hand.

Bang!

Lin Feng was sent stumbling backward, while the Amethyst Winged Lion King appeared where he had just been standing. A hint of surprise flashed through its beastly eyes. "Hmph! Your reactions aren't bad."

Then it looked toward Yun Yun at the cave entrance below. "This woman hasn't recovered her strength yet, has she?"

Lin Feng's expression changed. The next instant, the Lion King slammed a paw toward the cave. The enormous beast-paw imprint descended like a mountain bearing down upon them, and Yun Yun's face paled.

"Bastard."

Lin Feng cursed under his breath. The wings behind him beat, lightning flowing over them as he rushed toward Yun Yun.

Rest Gate, open!

The cells in his body were strengthened, golden light flowing through him. His figure left a trail of afterimages in the air, accompanied by a piercing rush of wind, as he shot directly in front of Yun Yun.

He stepped forward, and the ground collapsed. Dou Qi surged through his body as Chaos Flame combined with it to form a protective barrier.

Boom!

The massive beast paw crushed directly onto the barrier. The earth shook and the mountains trembled, and the entire cave collapsed. The nearby river instantly boiled, while even the waterfall was cut off for a long while before finally resuming its flow.

A powerful shockwave swept outward. The magical beasts nearby were caught in its wake; the weaker ones died on the spot, while even the slightly stronger ones suffered grievous injuries.

As the dust settled, black flames could be seen flickering beneath the ruins. Then, with a bang, the rocks above were blasted apart. Lin Feng emerged slowly from the rubble with Yun Yun in his arms, a gauzy layer of Dou Qi covering his body.

Held in Lin Feng's arms, Yun Yun's pretty face flushed slightly, especially when she felt his hot palm resting on her leg. But when she raised her head and saw the blood at the corner of his mouth, her heart ached again.

"Are... are you all right?"

Lin Feng shook his head and set Yun Yun down. Then he looked toward the Amethyst Winged Lion King in the sky, black flames faintly flickering in his eyes.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he said to Yun Yun, "Wait for me."

Then he charged into the sky. Yun Yun's expression changed as she watched the two streaks of light constantly colliding and intertwining above, her face full of worry. "Amethyst Winged Lion King, you bastard! If anything happens to Lin Feng, I'll overturn this entire Monster Mountain Range!"

She then found a spot and sat down cross-legged, beginning to hasten the breaking of the seal within her body. She knew that in her current state, not only could she not help Lin Feng, she might become his burden again, just as she had moments ago.

Her most urgent task was to break through the weakened seal as quickly as possible and recover her strength. Only then could she fight the Lion King and help Lin Feng.

Bang!

Another fierce collision erupted. Relying on his powerful body, Lin Feng fought the Lion King at close range. He had now opened the Eight Inner Gates to the second gate, the Rest Gate, greatly strengthening his physical power. With Chaos Flame to support him, Lin Feng could barely clash head-on with the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

He clearly understood his own strengths and weaknesses. He specialized in body cultivation and possessed formidable physical strength, but he lagged far behind in Dou Techniques. Therefore, he chose to fight the Lion King at close range, denying it the chance to use techniques or other moves while also preventing it from attacking Yun Yun.

Boom!

Violent energy fluctuations spread across the heavens, shattering the peaks of the surrounding mountains. The magical beasts on the ground howled incessantly, as though cheering for their leader. As for Yun Yun, because Lin Feng had left behind a wisp of Chaos Flame, none of those creatures dared approach her.

Roar!

The Amethyst Winged Lion King's furious roar resounded through the sky. It clearly had not expected this human brat to have tempered his body to such an extent, allowing him to clash head-on with it through sheer physical strength. In particular, his strange black flames were incredibly troublesome, forcing even the Lion King to deal with them carefully.

"Brat, let's see how long you can hold on."

Bang!

The wings behind it trembled as purple light flowed. Its beast paw shot forward, and Lin Feng's expression changed as he raised his hand to meet the attack.

Violent energy surged outward with the two of them at its center. The Lion King was actually forced back several steps, but Lin Feng's situation was even worse—he was blasted straight into a mountain peak, sending shattered stones cascading down.

Lin Feng felt as though every bone in his body had broken, pain coursing through him from head to toe. A Dou Emperor was indeed a Dou Emperor. Even its physical strength was so formidable. Coupled with the innate advantages of magical beasts, even Lin Feng could gain no advantage against the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

The Dou Qi within him was being drained, and pain spread through his body, but he could not fall. If he fell now, not only would he be finished, Yun Yun would be doomed as well.

The Meteor Tear on his chest had yet to react. It seemed he had not reached his limit yet.

He pulled himself free from the stone wall and spat out a mouthful of clotted blood. Dou Qi spread around him, lightning flowing over the wings behind his back. "Again."

Boom!

His figure vanished from where he stood once more. Lin Feng charged out again and became entangled with the Lion King, clashing with it continuously. But it was clear that the Dou Qi around Lin Feng was gradually thinning. The gauzy Dou Qi covering his body flickered in and out of sight, its glow dimming as he gradually fell into a disadvantage.
