60: Purple Spirit Crystal and its associated purple crystal source

“No more delays, let’s go!”

Yun Yun wasted no more time. With light steps, she arrived beside Mo Yuhan.

Before Mo Yuhan could react, a hand as warm and smooth as jade had already wrapped around his waist, while the other supported his bent legs.

“Ah?”

Mo Yuhan only felt his body lighten, and he was lifted off the ground by a gentle force, landing in a soft, fragrant embrace!

Yun Yun had actually picked him up directly.

“Hold on tight to me. It’s too far from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King’s territory and cave.”

Yun Yun’s clear, cold voice sounded in his ear, carrying a hint of unquestionable authority.

Mo Yuhan’s small face instantly flushed red. He instinctively reached out his hands and wrapped them around Yun Yun’s slender, pale neck.

His body pressed tightly against her soft and elastic form, especially his back, where he clearly felt two astonishingly full and soft mounds. The surprising sensation, transmitted through her thin clothing, made his entire body stiffen.

His nostrils were filled with Yun Yun’s unique, cool body fragrance, like a secluded orchid in a deep valley, mixed with the faint sweet scent from her hair, creating a dizzying, alluring aroma.

Yun Yun seemed to find nothing amiss. In her eyes, Mo Yuhan was indeed just a child who needed care.

She circulated her Dou Qi, and deep green Dou Qi wings suddenly unfurled behind her. With a flap of her wings, a strong current of air immediately surged within the cave.

“Swoosh—!”

The two instantly transformed into a streak of green light, like Teleportation, rushing out of the cave and directly into the sky.

The speed was far beyond the limit of Mo Yuhan’s Purple Cloud Wings.

The high-altitude wind blew fiercely. Mo Yuhan instinctively hugged Yun Yun’s neck tighter, burying his small face in the crook of her neck.

The warm skin contact, the faint body fragrance, and the astonishingly soft elasticity continuously coming from her back, subtly changing with the turbulence of flight…

All made Mo Yuhan’s heart pound like a drum, and his mind felt somewhat blank.

He could only tightly close his eyes, trying to ignore this suffocating, alluring contact.

Yun Yun felt the slight trembling and stiffness of the little fellow in her arms. She only thought he was a bit scared experiencing such high-speed flight for the first time. Her arm instinctively held him a little tighter, and she gently comforted him, “Don’t be afraid, we’ll be there soon.”

This instinctive action made their bodies press together even more closely, and the soft, full sensation of pressure became even clearer.

Mo Yuhan: “…”

He could only mumble a vague “mm” and bury his face deeper.

Yun Yun’s speed was astonishing. A moment later, she quietly landed with Mo Yuhan on top of a mountain, not far from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King’s huge cave, concealed by dense tree canopies.

Below, the enormous cave entrance was faintly visible through the gaps in the branches. Near the entrance, several robust third-tier magical beasts, Blazing Fire Apes, were restlessly patrolling back and forth, clearly indicating that the Lion King was wary of the previous battle and had strengthened his guard.

“Are you ready?”

Yun Yun gently set Mo Yuhan down and asked in a low voice, her sharp gaze sweeping over the guard arrangements below.

Mo Yuhan took a deep breath, suppressed the throbbing in his heart, felt the temporary power of a Dou Master within him, and the lightness brought by the wind attribute, then nodded vigorously.

He tightened his grip on the rhomboid crystal in his hand, which was currently cool to the touch.

“Go. Be careful. Once you succeed, retreat immediately. I will create a diversion at the cave entrance to cover you.”

Yun Yun’s voice carried a hint of concern that was hard to detect.

“Understood!” Mo Yuhan no longer hesitated. His figure moved, and with the wind attribute Dou Qi bestowed by Yun Yun, his speed was as fast as Gui Mei, almost transforming into a blurry green shadow. He silently used the shadows of large rocks and dense bushes, like a nimble cat, quickly sneaking towards the huge cave entrance.

As for Yun Yun, after Mo Yuhan left, her figure immediately became fully visible when she was about a hundred meters from the cave.

Soon, roars of beasts echoed through the mountains.

Yun Yun’s jade hand clenched, and a peculiar green longsword appeared in her palm. Then, her figure transformed into a green light and instantly plunged into the dense forest surrounding the cave.

Immediately, a series of shrill beast roars erupted violently. Numerous magical beasts, from near the cave, fled in panic and terror. In the hands of a Dou Huang, these fierce third and fourth-tier magical beasts had no room to display their ferocity whatsoever.

“Human woman, you dare to appear again? Today, I will take your life!”

Meanwhile, for Mo Yuhan, although the Blazing Fire Apes patrolling near the cave entrance were vigilant, their massive size and relatively dull perception were useless in front of Mo Yuhan, whose speed had surged and who was intentionally hiding.

He was like a wisp of green smoke merging with the wind, narrowly avoiding several seemingly random points where the apes’ gazes intersected. With a flash of his figure, he disappeared into the enormous cave, which exuded a scorching aura.

Upon entering the cave, Mo Yuhan was momentarily stunned.

The light inside the cave was not as dim as he had imagined.

Many fist-sized purple crystal blocks were irregularly embedded in the surrounding cave walls.

These crystal blocks were not artificially carved but were products of the naturally formed purple crystal veins within the cave. They emitted a soft purple glow, adorning the entire deep and spacious interior of the cave like a dreamy purple starry sky, extremely beautiful.

Mo Yuhan thought that these natural purple crystal blocks would be quite valuable as decorative items in the Human World.

It was a pity time was pressing, otherwise, he could really pry some off to earn money.

The interior of the cave was extremely spacious, and the temperature was much higher than outside. A dry and scorching aura rushed towards him.

Mo Yuhan composed himself and cautiously moved forward, hugging the shadows of the cave wall. The rhomboid crystal in his hand remained cool, indicating that the purple spirit crystal was not nearby.

He quickly ventured deep into the cave’s core.

The Purple Flame here was even more intense. His gaze was instantly drawn to a peculiar stone platform in the center of the cave.

It was a square platform, over a meter high, composed of countless purple crystals of varying sizes.

At the top of the purple crystal platform, a spherical purple object, about the size of an adult’s head, lay quietly.

This sphere was perfectly round, its surface smooth as a mirror, displaying a deep and pure purple color. Inside, a viscous purple liquid seemed to flow slowly, emitting a scorching energy fluctuation that made one’s heart palpitate.

The source of the unusually high temperature throughout the cave was precisely this object.

“symbiotic purple crystal source!”

Mo Yuhan naturally knew what this was; it was a treasure even more precious and rare than purple spirit crystal.

In the original work, Xiao Yan relied on it to refine Purple Flame and break through to Dou Master by refining its power. At the same time, he was also able to feed it to Medusa’s Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python after her successful evolution.

Just then, the rhomboid crystal in his hand suddenly became scalding hot.

Mo Yuhan immediately looked in the direction indicated by the crystal’s sensing. In a corner not far from the purple crystal platform, in a small nest covered with thick, soft dry grass, a small lion, much smaller than the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King and covered in tender purple crystal scales, was curled up, sound asleep, emitting soft purring sounds.
