Summoning the Amethyst Winged Lion King!

The "King of Beasts" achievement had been completed. Reward: Magical Beast Summoning Card—Amethyst Winged Lion King!

When he heard the system's voice, Chen Feng's expression froze slightly. He had never expected that accidentally releasing the One-Tail would complete a hidden mission.

This was like hitting the jackpot!

The Amethyst Winged Lion King was a creature from a fantasy world, terrifyingly powerful. With a mere gesture, it could split mountains and shatter the earth. A being of that level was beyond human strength to oppose.

It was absolutely the strongest possible safeguard!

With that thought, Chen Feng activated the summoning card.

In an instant, dazzling purple light erupted and rapidly expanded. Accompanied by a terrifying pressure and incomparably scorching heat, a massive figure slowly descended.

The sudden change startled everyone. Even Orochimaru and Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had been confronting each other, were shaken and instinctively turned to look.

Then, a horrifying behemoth appeared before everyone's eyes.

It was a terrifying giant beast resembling a lion, its entire body purple-blue. Strange violet light flickered within its enormous, cold, blood-red eyes.

A razor-sharp crimson spiral horn protruded from its savage head. Clusters of terrifying purple flames coiled around its tip, as though even space itself were twisting.

A pair of indestructible purple wings grew from the giant lion's sides. Every flap sent purple flames bursting forth and sweeping across the surroundings.

Its four thick paws were wrapped in mystical purple crystals. Each step made the very air tremble!

Everyone looked on in terror, while Chen Feng was briefly stunned. Isn't that guy...?

Then, its status panel appeared in his mind.

Name: Amethyst Winged Lion King

Level: Sixth-Rank Magical Beast

Remaining Summons: 2

(If the host can subdue it, or if it willingly acknowledges the host as its master, the summoned beast can remain in this plane for an extended period.)

After glancing over the panel, Chen Feng thought, It really is that Lion King. I didn't expect the system's reward this time to be so generous. With it here, I won't have to fear that big cat, the One-Tail.

The only pity was that such a powerful magical beast could only be summoned three times. With this use already spent, only two chances remained.

Even so, this reward was still extremely generous.

At that moment, the Amethyst Winged Lion King spoke like a human. "Why have you summoned this king?"

Its voice was like thunder, incomparably loud and majestic, striking fear into the heart.

As those violet-red eyes, each as large as lanterns, swept toward him, Chen Feng raised a hand and pointed at the One-Tail Shukaku across from him.

The Lion King's intelligence was no weaker than a human's, so it naturally understood his meaning. With a slight flap of its wings, it appeared before Shukaku.

The two gigantic creatures locked eyes. Sensing the terrifying pressure radiating from the other, deep wariness appeared in the One-Tail's eyes as it bared its teeth and roared.

A chill flashed through the Amethyst Winged Lion King's eyes. In its view, this fat oversized cat's behavior was undoubtedly a provocation. The dignity of a king could not be violated!

With a cold snort, it beat its wings, and incomparably scorching purple flames erupted violently, sweeping forth like a flood that blotted out the sky.

In the blink of an eye, Shukaku's figure was swallowed up, and the entire arena was instantly engulfed in terrifying purple flames.

Watching the flames erupt endlessly like a storm, the surrounding crowd turned pale with fright and fled as quickly as possible, afraid of being caught up in the slightest.

A battle of this level was no longer something they could participate in.

Naturally, Chen Feng had also fled to safety at the first opportunity, quietly watching the battle that followed...

From within the sea of fire came a somewhat shrill roar. "What is this thing? It's burning this great lord to death!"

Shukaku's body had been set ablaze by the purple fire, and it desperately released chakra in an attempt to extinguish the flames.

However, this beast flame was even more formidable than imagined. Not only was it extremely hot, it could also burn chakra. Even with a tailed beast's powerful vitality, being touched by it was a serious headache.

Shukaku gritted its teeth and shed the outer layer of its body as flowing sand, finally extinguishing the flames.

Immediately afterward, a huge amount of chakra erupted, transforming into terrifying whirlwinds that spun at high speed. A vacuum zone formed around its body, blocking the surging flames outside.

After suffering a loss, Shukaku looked up at the Amethyst Winged Lion King in the sky, its eyes filled with rage.

Then it opened its mouth. Highly concentrated chakra gathered within, intertwining with fierce winds before transforming into one wind sphere after another. They shot out like dense cannonballs, bombarding the Lion King.

Faced with such an attack, the Lion King merely flashed aside and evaded it. As a magical beast capable of flight, it naturally countered a cumbersome opponent like the One-Tail.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King let out an earth-shaking roar. As the deafening lion's cry echoed out, the dazzling purple crystals covering its body suddenly shone brilliantly, and surging purple flames burst forth from within.

The purple flames churned like raging waves, gathering into a massive pillar of violet fire that blasted fiercely toward the One-Tail on the ground.

Shukaku was startled and hurriedly manipulated the sand, condensing it into a huge spherical shell that enveloped its entire body in defense.

This move was similar to Gaara's Sand Shield, but its defensive power was far greater. Even a Kage Level expert would need to put in some effort to break through it.

With an explosive BOOM, the terrifying pillar of fire slammed into the sand shield.

The spacious circular arena was instantly flattened, and the circular walls surrounding it shattered with a crash. Terrifying flames and shockwaves swept outward for over a thousand meters.

The nearby buildings all collapsed, turning into heaps of rubble and debris...

Seeing this, even Orochimaru was startled. He then looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said, "I never expected Teacher to have such a trump card. This giant beast's strength is probably no weaker than a tailed beast, right?"

Sarutobi frowned and replied coldly, "I don't know what that thing is either, or why it suddenly appeared in the village."

"Now that's interesting..."

Orochimaru smiled, but inwardly, he wondered whether someone else was also setting their sights on Konoha.

Just then, a scorching, terrifying blast of air swept across them, causing the building beneath their feet to collapse with a crash.

The Sound Four immediately lost their footing and fell, while the Four Violet Flames Formation they had been maintaining could no longer hold and lost its effect...
