Accompanying Amethyst Source

The blue pillar of energy met that streak of light. The streak was incomparably sharp, slicing straight through the energy pillar with almost no resistance.

After cutting through the blue energy pillar, the streak of light slowed slightly before shooting toward the Silver Moon Wolf King under its stunned gaze. Before it could react, it struck the icy gleaming horn on its forehead.

"Clang!"

After a brief cutting sound, a fine mark appeared on the Silver Moon Wolf King's horn before it snapped off cleanly.

"Awoo—"

The Silver Moon Wolf King seemed to howl in pain. As the horn on its forehead broke, streams of blue-white radiance surged out and scattered away.

The Silver Moon Wolf King's strength began to decline, eventually returning to the ranks of a fifth-tier beast.

"It seems that girl came prepared. She knew that to break the Silver Moon Wolf King's energy transfer, she had to destroy the horn on its forehead..."

The black-clothed youth hiding in concealment softly remarked, "So the weakness of this move lies in that obvious horn? Isn't that a little too conspicuous...?"

"Hmph, you make it sound easy. If that little girl's wind-attribute battle qi cultivation hadn't been so strong, she would have found it difficult to succeed in one strike!"

"Boom!"

The Silver Moon Wolf King retreated in defeat. The next moment, several pillars of purple fire suddenly erupted from the ground, aiming directly at the Plain Clothes Woman in the sky.

The sudden change caught the black-clothed youth off guard, and at the same time, a voice rang out in his mind.

"Be careful. The true ruler of the Magical Beast Forest has appeared!"

Facing those scorching pillars of purple fire, the Plain Clothes Woman repeatedly swept her longsword. A massive cyan tornado rose once more, carrying the savage howl of the wind as it charged madly toward the thickest pillar of purple fire.

Wherever the storm passed, the forest below was torn apart into a stretch of bare yellow earth. Numerous magical beasts fled from it in panic.

With his teacher's help, the black-clothed youth gripped the tree trunk tightly and was fortunate enough not to be swept away by the fierce wind.

Looking at the utterly devastated forest around him, he could not help swallowing in shock.

This was far more powerful than her previous attack!

"Boom!"

A tremendous explosion erupted out of nowhere in the clear sky.

The storm and the fire pillar collided violently, energy pouring out in wild torrents. Flames and gales scattered in every direction, while the space at the point where the energies met seemed to tremble faintly.

When the outpouring of energy had nearly subsided, both the storm and the fire pillar gradually dissipated. The Plain Clothes Woman stood motionless in the sky, her expression unruffled as she calmly watched the thickest fire pillar in the field.

As the pillar of fire faded, it revealed the Amethyst Winged Lion King bathed in purple flames.

"This is..." the black-clothed youth exclaimed.

"A sixth-tier magical beast, the Amethyst Winged Lion King! This magical beast is no ordinary creature!"

Upon seeing the Amethyst Winged Lion King appear, the Silver Moon Wolf King wisely retreated. "Awoo—"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King did not even spare the Silver Moon Wolf King a glance. His gaze remained fixed on the Plain Clothes Woman in the sky. "Human woman, you have repeatedly offended my beast clan. Are you trying to declare war?"

The Plain Clothes Woman's beautiful eyes fixed on the Amethyst Winged Lion King as her red lips parted. "Lion King, I wish to borrow your Purple Spirit Crystal!"

"Borrow the Purple Spirit Crystal? Human woman, do you not know what the Purple Spirit Crystal represents to my Amethyst Winged Lion Clan? You think you can borrow it just because you want to? How about I borrow your life instead?" the Amethyst Winged Lion King sneered.

"I can trade something for it," the Plain Clothes Woman continued. "I am willing to exchange with you!"

Facing the Amethyst Winged Lion King, the Plain Clothes Woman seemed to have lost some of her earlier forcefulness.

After all, the Amethyst Winged Lion King was different from the Silver Moon Wolf King. The Silver Moon Wolf King had only barely entered the sixth tier by borrowing the strength of his wolf pack, and his strength ranked among the lowest of sixth-tier magical beasts. The Amethyst Winged Lion King, on the other hand, was a genuine sixth-tier magical beast. Moreover, because his bloodline carried traces of an even higher-tier magical beast bloodline, his strength was considerable even among sixth-tier magical beasts.

The Plain Clothes Woman clearly was not certain she could handle him, which was why she sought negotiation.

"An exchange? Fine. If you want to exchange for my Purple Spirit Crystal, I will only accept two things. One is a Transformation Pill, and the other is your life! What do you say?"

"It seems this Amethyst Winged Lion King doesn't have much of a temper for compromise. He is clearly trying to make things difficult for that girl. Looks like the two of them won't be able to reach an agreement!" the old man's voice sounded beside the black-clothed youth.

The black-clothed youth blinked. Apparently, he did not know much about the Transformation Pill either. "Teacher, this Transformation Pill should be a medicinal pill that lets magical beasts take human form, right? Is it very precious?"

"The Transformation Pill has its unique merits. It can allow a magical beast to completely transform into human form. You must know that compared to magical beasts, humans do not possess bodies as powerful as theirs, nor do they have the long lifespans of some magical beasts. Yet humans possess potential and talent far beyond magical beasts, along with limitless possibilities."

"Once magical beasts consume a Transformation Pill and take human form, they can gain the potential of humans. They can then advance further in ten or several decades, which is undoubtedly far superior to the centuries they would otherwise need!"

"Uh..." The black-clothed youth clearly understood the qualities of this pill now. No wonder that big lion had made such an outrageous demand for it—otherwise, he wanted that woman's life.

Just as the old man had expected, upon hearing the Amethyst Winged Lion King's demands, the Plain Clothes Woman frowned slightly. "Lion King, you are being overly unreasonable. I absolutely cannot agree to either of those conditions. However, if you are willing, I can offer three fifth-tier magic cores and a Mysterious Rank High-Level Cultivation Method suitable for your cultivation in exchange. What do you think?"

"Not much. Since you cannot produce them, either get lost or leave your life behind!" the Amethyst Winged Lion King roared.

With a soft sigh, the Plain Clothes Woman raised her cyan longsword once more and said somewhat helplessly, "If that is the case, then I can only take it by force!"

"Hypocritical human! If you want to fight, then fight. Do you really think I am easy to bully?" Seeing the Plain Clothes Woman's reaction, the fury in the Amethyst Winged Lion King's eyes instantly transformed into surging battle intent. "Human Battle Emperor, you will remain in the Magical Beast Forest forever today!"

Southeast of the forest.

Amethyst Winged Lion King Cave Entrance.

Under the guidance of the Azure Scale Viper Snake, Mo Yun arrived.

After dealing with the magical beasts near the cave entrance, including the Tree Crown Macaque that had delivered the message,

Mo Yun had the Azure Scale Viper Snake lead the snake pack in guarding the entrance while he cautiously walked inside.

Within the cave, whose walls were dyed purple, the air was especially stifling and hot.

Mo Yun slowly walked to a relatively spacious clearing, where he saw a stone platform and a huge stone bed.

On the stone bed lay a furry, oversized ball of flesh more than a meter long.

In Mo Yun's perception, this furry oversized ball of flesh was merely a little third-tier creature. Wouldn't it be easy for him to catch?

The little creature seemed to sense that an outsider had intruded. It raised its adorably foolish large head, looked at Mo Yun, who had appeared here, blinked its pale purple eyes, and began to howl.

"Awoo—"

When the little creature stood up, the purple sphere beneath it was revealed. Dense purple liquid could be seen within the sphere.

"So this is the Accompanying Amethyst Source?" Mo Yun naturally spotted the purple sphere and recalled.
