Battle Against the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King

Chapter 40: Battle Against the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King

"Xiao Tian." Xiao Tian said casually as he applied medicine to her.

"Oh." Yun Zhi nodded slightly, then fell silent. She bit her red lip, enduring the intense tearing pain.

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's attack had not only reopened her wounds but also sealed her power. The pain was almost unbearable for her now.

However, not long after Xiao Tian finished applying the medicine, its effects gradually seeped in, transforming the initial pain into a cool and comfortable sensation.

"You need the Purple Spirit Crystal from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King?" Inside the cave, Xiao Tian took out a black robe from his Storage Ring to change for her and asked casually.

"Mm." Hearing this, Yun Zhi's beautiful eyes blinked, and she nodded subconsciously.

The Purple Spirit Crystal was very important to her, which was why she had dared to fight the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King for it.

Xiao Tian didn't ask further. He took out more healing supplies from his Storage Ring and then strode out of the cave.

"You..." Seeing Xiao Tian leave the cave, Yun Zhi frowned and immediately chased after him, her voice laced with anger.

"You can't go out now! Those magical beasts will find you, and I won't be able to save you!"

As she spoke, Yun Zhi grabbed Xiao Tian's arm, her beautiful eyes looking at him with a hint of indignation.

They had finally found a temporarily safe place. If Xiao Tian went out now, he would definitely be discovered by the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's subordinates, putting both of them in grave danger.

Feeling the warm, soft touch of her hand, Xiao Tian slowly turned around and smiled.

"Don't worry. Stay here and don't move. I'll be back soon!"

Without waiting for Yun Zhi to react, his Purple Cloud Wings flapped, and Xiao Tian's figure vanished before her eyes.

"Is that the Purple Cloud Wings?"

Gazing at the two dark wings with purple cloud patterns, a look of astonishment appeared on Yun Zhi's delicate face as she stared blankly in the direction Xiao Tian had left.

However, she was still extremely worried about Xiao Tian. In her perception, he seemed to be merely a Dou Disciple. Even with the Purple Cloud Wings, it would be difficult for him to escape the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's pursuit.

Time flew by, and two hours had passed in the blink of an eye.

Yun Zhi stood at the cave entrance, looking around, but Xiao Tian's figure was still nowhere to be seen. Her heart sank slightly.

"Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, if anything happens to him, I will flatten this entire mountain range!" Gritting her teeth, her unease growing, Yun Zhi immediately drew her long sword and walked out of the cave.

Meanwhile, after wandering the Monster Beast Mountain Range for nearly two hours, Xiao Tian finally found the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's lair.

He had heard about the Purple Spirit Crystal. It was said that only a small piece would shed from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's body every twenty years, making it incredibly precious and highly effective. Humans who used it could rapidly improve their cultivation, thus attracting the covetous eyes of many powerhouses.

"Hmph, the heavens help those who help themselves. I never expected you to dare to show yourself. Damnable human, this king will ensure you perish here this time!" At this moment, looking at Xiao Tian flying in the sky before him, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's huge eyes immediately filled with ferocity as it let out a low roar.

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King harbored intense hatred for this unexpected interloper. If Xiao Tian hadn't suddenly appeared, the woman in the plain skirt would have long been pierced by its purple beam and died.

"Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, mind if I borrow a few Purple Spirit Crystals?" Xiao Tian's Purple Cloud Wings flapped rapidly as he hovered in the sky, a smile curving his lips.

He wasn't particularly interested in the Purple Spirit Crystal initially, but since he had the chance to encounter it, he couldn't let it pass.

Even if he couldn't use it himself, he could give it to Xun'er, Ya Fei, or even Xiao Yi Xian in the future.

"Foolish human, do you think you can just take my Purple Spirit Crystals whenever you please? You're dreaming, hmph!" Hearing Xiao Tian speak as if in a dream in broad daylight, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King snorted coldly, its fierce face filled with contempt.

"Since you refuse to cooperate, I'll have to take them myself!" Seeing the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's refusal, a ruthless expression gradually appeared on Xiao Tian's face.

Immediately, the Purple Cloud Wings on his back flapped rapidly. In an instant, Xiao Tian swooped down, Dou Qi surging forth and condensing in his fists.

"Eight Extremes Collapse!!"

Almost instantaneously, Xiao Tian's body appeared beside the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. Before the beast could react, his strangely positioned fist slammed into its massive body.

Bang!!

A terrifying force erupted, striking the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King fiercely. Without any suspense, under the impact of this power, the beast's body was sent flying thousands of meters like a kite with a broken string, crashing deep into the dark forest.

The tremendous sound startled numerous magical beasts in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, causing them to cry out and scatter.

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, on the verge of death from that punch, panted weakly, blood trickling from its mouth. It stared in horror at the rapidly approaching Xiao Tian.

That power was unlike anything it had ever encountered. If it weren't for its tough hide and astonishing defense, that punch would have sent it to meet the Buddha.

"Damn you, human! Even if I die, you won't get the Purple Spirit Crystals..." The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King roared through gritted teeth as Xiao Tian loomed over it.

However, Xiao Tian didn't get angry. Instead, he smiled at the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King and said, "You don't need to tell me. I think I already know where the Purple Spirit Crystals are hidden!"

Just moments ago, Xiao Tian had noticed the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King repeatedly glancing towards a valley in the northwest, not far away.

If Xiao Tian wasn't mistaken, there seemed to be a large cave there.

In this short period, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King had looked at that cave no less than ten times.

If his guess was correct, this cave was the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's lair, and the Purple Spirit Crystals were definitely hidden within.

Just as Xiao Tian had guessed, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King had been extremely vigilant since his appearance.

It was wary of the woman in the plain skirt. After all, Xiao Tian had rescued her earlier, and now only he had appeared.

In the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's mind, humans were incredibly cunning. Perhaps Xiao Tian was employing a diversion tactic, making it lower its guard, and then the woman in the plain skirt would rush into the lair to steal the Purple Spirit Crystals.

Unfortunately, that was not the case.

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King had thought too much this time; only Xiao Tian had arrived.

If it hadn't been so concerned about the safety of its cave dwelling, Xiao Tian probably wouldn't have discovered it so quickly.

At this moment, Xiao Tian was flying towards the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's cave dwelling with a smile.

However, what he didn't expect was that there was actually a group of small magical beasts guarding the area around the cave dwelling.

Upon seeing Xiao Tian appear, this group of magical beasts immediately roared and attacked him in unison.
