Battle Between Dou Emperors

Yun Yun warily glanced at the increasingly impatient Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. The layer of purple crystals covering its body was far too thick, its defense exceptionally formidable. Even the Dou Skill she unleashed with all her strength would struggle to break through that turtle-shell-like protection.

"Purple Spirit Crystal is exceedingly rare. I can exchange something the Lion King needs for it. I guarantee you will not suffer any loss."

Yun Yun spoke in a negotiating tone, but the sword seal between her jade-like fingers grew more solid, and a layer of cyan light shimmered over the sword behind her.

"Hmph! An exchange? Fine. I happen to be in the stage of transformation lately.

If you want Purple Spirit Crystal, bring out a Transformation Pill in exchange."

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King opened its bloody maw wide, its beastly eyes filled with mockery. It vividly demonstrated what it meant to make an outrageous demand.

Yun Yun frowned, a trace of anger in her beautiful eyes. She said calmly, "A Transformation Pill is a seventh-grade medicinal pill. I doubt anyone in the entire Jia Ma Empire can produce one. Even if someone could, no one would trade a Transformation Pill for this.

Your Purple Spirit Crystal may be precious, but it is not worth that price.

If you are willing, I can offer three fifth-tier Magic Cores, along with a High Xuan Tier Dou Skill and cultivation method suitable for you. In terms of value, they are worth far more than your Purple Spirit Crystal."

"Tch, you want to trade for my Purple Spirit Crystal with just this little?

If you cannot produce a Transformation Pill, then leave the Magic Beast Mountains as soon as possible. My territory does not welcome humans."

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King shook its enormous head. Its wings flapped faintly behind it as it raised a claw and pointed toward the distant horizon, signaling for the human before it to get lost.

With a soft sigh, Yun Yun's beautiful eyes instantly turned icy. For Yanran's sake, she was determined to obtain the Purple Spirit Crystal.

Holding her sword before her, Yun Yun said helplessly, "I cannot produce a Transformation Pill, but I am determined to obtain the Purple Spirit Crystal. I must have it today.

Since the Lion King has no sincerity in making a deal, I can only take it by force."

"Hahaha! You speak of a deal, yet you bring out scraps to fool me and refuse to pay the price.

Now that the deal has failed, you intend to rob me by force! You humans have always been this hypocritical."

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King stopped laughing and said coldly, "It is true that you are on the same level as me. I originally had no desire to continue wasting time with you, but you failed to appreciate my kindness and angered me.

Today, I will make your blood stain these mountains and use your life to bolster the mighty name of the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King!"

"Hmph. Then let our hands decide the truth."

As Yun Yun's voice fell, gust after gust of cyan gale suddenly swept through heaven and earth. The winds roared, uprooting tree after tree from the ground below and dragging them into the air, where the howling gales tore them to pieces.

Dou Emperor experts could already resonate their Dou Qi with heaven and earth, freely drawing upon energy of the same attribute to strengthen their attacks. They could easily level mountains and shatter peaks, hold back thousands of troops alone, and possessed terrifying strength.

"Hmph, insolence! How could I allow a mere human to run wild in my territory?"

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King roared angrily, shaking the surrounding mountains. Surging purple flames burst forth from the purple crystal formations on its body.

The waves of fire rolled and churned before finally transforming into a towering pillar of purple flame. The scorching heat evaporated all moisture from the air. The overwhelming Purple Flame blanketed the sky like a domain of blazing fire, while the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King at the center of that violet sea of flames seemed to transform into a purple sun. Its powerful aura intimidated the entire Magic Beast Mountains.

"Damn! System, are you sure this mission is correct? This thing is my opponent?"

Heat waves surged, and the mountains were filled with white mist. Sweat streamed down Mu Chen's body as he stood atop a mountain roughly ten miles from where the two were facing off in the sky, watching the human and beast confront one another.

Even from so far away, the scorching temperature made sweat pour from Mu Chen like rain. His mouth and tongue were parched, and even the air he breathed carried searing heat.

"Dou Emperor experts are truly terrifying! That saying is not without reason. They really are terrifying."

Energy surged as Yun Yun transformed into a nimble wind. Relying on her advantage in speed, she struck first. The longsword in her delicate hand slashed out wave after wave of cyan wind blades filled with murderous intent as she circled the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. Those wind blades, sharp enough to cut through steel, struck the crystal plates covering its body and produced a string of ringing clangs.

Yet the cyan wind blades that could slice through steel only left shallow marks on the surface of the purple crystals. They could not break through the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's defense at all.

"A futile struggle, human. You cannot even break my defense. What right do you have to fight me?"

Its voice thundered as the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King spread its wings. The crystals on its body began to glow, and specks of purple light like fireflies drifted toward its head. The red spiral horn flashed, and a beam of fiery energy shot forth.

Seeing this, Yun Yun pushed out her delicate hand, which had long been forming hand seals. A lively energy seal flashed into existence and instantly transformed into a massive cyan tornado.

Wind Push Force!

The two energy attacks collided at high speed. In the end, the purple flames and cyan gales completely canceled each other out.

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King forcibly passed through the chaotic mass of energy that had yet to fully disperse. It raised its enormous, terrifying beast claw, tore through space, and swiped at Yun Yun with heavy purple radiance.

Physical attacks were a magical beast's specialty, and the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King naturally would not neglect such an obvious advantage.

Yun Yun flashed away repeatedly, her pretty face grave as she occasionally formed sturdy Wind Shields to block the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's attacks.

Being approached by a magical beast was no good thing. Yun Yun could only beat her Dou Qi wings and employ an exceptionally refined movement Dou Skill, using evasive maneuvers to widen the distance between herself and the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

Once she had maintained a safe distance, Yun Yun immediately counterattacked. Countless cyan wind blades and storms, under her control, repeatedly clashed with the enraged Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

By this point, both sides had developed real fury and had no intention of holding back. Their attacks were ferocious and filled with killing intent, determined to decide victory and defeat.

Under the devastation of the battle's aftershocks, every tree on the ground below was blasted to pieces. Even the earth had been shaved away in thick layers, exposing the yellow soil beneath.

Countless magical beasts fled the battlefield, madly escaping the central area. They rampaged in every direction, forming a tide of magical beasts that destroyed all trees and rocks in their path.

Mu Chen clicked his tongue inwardly and did his best to conceal his aura. However, those magical beasts only cared about fleeing for their lives now. Even when they passed right beside Mu Chen, they paid him no attention.

The battle continued for a long time, gradually reaching its most intense stage.

"Human, you are as annoying as a flea. You have worn away what little patience I had left," the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King roared, making the forested mountains echo and tremble.

Intense purple light suddenly erupted from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's body. The energy of heaven and earth within the surrounding air began to riot as purple brilliance flashed out and enveloped the empty sky. It then compressed violently, finally forming a purple beam only about half a foot wide.

Yun Yun stared deeply at the half-foot-wide beam before the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. She sharply sensed intense danger from it.

Purple Crystal Seal!

With a low roar from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, the purple beam flashed. It seemed to pierce through space and appeared not far before Yun Yun in an instant.

Yun Yun's expression changed slightly. Without the slightest hesitation, she immediately unleashed the powerful Dou Skill she had been preparing for so long with a turn of her slender hand.

Rending Wind Whirling Dance!

As Yun Yun's clear shout fell, ripples spread through the empty space before her. Countless cyan wind blades immediately appeared, interweaving into a cylindrical attack packed with wind blades as it collided fiercely with the purple beam.
