42: Strange flames in the poisonous swamp

The sword light flashed, striking the Amethyst Winged Lion King in an instant!

"Roar!"

The extremely sharp sword aura pierced through the Amethyst Winged Lion King's broad wings, immediately severing them!

The Amethyst Winged Lion King's mountain-like body plummeted straight towards the ground, crashing into a cliff, instantly sending sand and dust flying, and the mountain wall was broken in half.

Xiao Lei seized the opportunity to continue his attack, the Dou Technique under his feet erupting with a terrifying rumble.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King, having lost its ability to fly, completely became Xiao Lei's punching bag, being sent flying in all directions, and the battlefield instantly turned into a mess.

Putting away her longsword, Yun Yun let out a turbid breath; fighting like this immediately after recovering her Qi made her quite unaccustomed.

Looking again at Xiao Lei, who was moving swiftly across the ground, Yun Yun couldn't help but exclaim: "Too brutal!"

After a long while, Xiao Lei finally stopped, having controlled his strength to avoid killing his opponent directly.

"Don't... don't kill me, I'll give you the purple spirit crystal, I'm willing to be your mount!"

As if using his last bit of strength, the Amethyst Winged Lion King shouted.

Xiao Lei landed on top of the Amethyst Winged Lion King's head, drew out his long saber, and pressed it against the Amethyst Winged Lion King's head.

"Are there any Rank 6 snake-type Demonic Beasts or poison-attribute Demonic Beasts in this Magical Beast Mountain Range? Speak!"

Looking at the entire Jia Ma Empire, at least for now, Xiao Lei really couldn't find any opportunities to successfully copy other people, so Xiao Lei wanted to start with his other two Physiques.

At the very least, he needed to improve his cultivation first; a three-star Dou Huang was still not enough!

Upon hearing this, the Amethyst Winged Lion King, who had originally thought he was dead, suddenly rekindled hope for life and quickly spoke.

"Human, if I tell you, you will spare my life!"

Xiao Lei's expression remained unchanged. Letting the Amethyst Winged Lion King go? He wasn't that generous!

From the moment the two started fighting, this matter was impossible!

"You have no right to bargain with me!"

Saying this, Xiao Lei exerted force with his hand, and the sharp long saber pierced through the panel on the Amethyst Winged Lion King's head, directly stabbing into it.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King knew he was dead for sure! Xiao Lei would absolutely not hold back!

However, the Amethyst Winged Lion King did not choose to self-destruct immediately; a Demonic Beast's memory surfaced in his mind!

He had truly felt Xiao Lei's previous speed; even if he self-destructed, Xiao Lei would at most suffer some injuries!

"There is a Demonic Beast that meets your criteria in the Poison Nether Swamp. I've told you, human, let me go!"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King feigned compromise, but in reality, he was trying to prevent Xiao Lei from being suspicious of the Demonic Beast he mentioned. In his opinion, that Demonic Beast would be more than enough to kill Xiao Lei.

"Very good, you can die now!"

Xiao Lei didn't waste any words; the Dou Technique he had been brewing instantly erupted, and the tip of his saber suddenly unleashed violent energy.

With such violent energy erupting instantly in his brain, the Amethyst Winged Lion King's fate was imaginable.

Bang!

The Amethyst Winged Lion King's head burst open like a watermelon hit by a bullet!

Yun Yun floated to Xiao Lei's side and whispered, "You asked him about Demonic Beast information; aren't you afraid he deliberately laid a trap?"

Xiao Lei drew out his long saber, and with a whoosh, purple flames shot out, burning away all the residual blood on the blade!

After wiping it again, Xiao Lei put away his long saber and spoke leisurely: "The highest Rank of Demonic Beast in the Magical Beast Mountain Range is Rank 6; otherwise, they would have long unified the entire Magical Beast Mountain Range and confronted the major Empires."

"As long as it's Rank 6, even if I can't defeat it, I can still escape!"

Xiao Lei didn't mention an important reason, which was that even if the Amethyst Winged Lion King were to set a trap for him, it would have to be a Demonic Beast that matched what he said; otherwise, how could Xiao Lei possibly provoke it?

And as long as it was a poison-attribute Demonic Beast or a snake-type Demonic Beast, the threat to Xiao Lei would be extremely low.

"It's best not to be careless; why don't I go with you!"

Heh! So that's what Yun Yun was waiting for!

Xiao Lei thought to himself, 'If you want to come along, just say so!'

However, Xiao Lei did not expose Yun Yun's little thoughts.

Just as the two were talking, a huge, ice-blue python slithered towards them. Looking closely, Xiao Yi Xian was sitting on the Mystic Ice Python's head, holding the corpse of a Demonic Beast that looked like a miniature Amethyst Winged Lion King in one hand.

However, Xiao Yi Xian herself was also extremely disheveled, with several wounds on her body still bleeding.

Upon seeing Xiao Lei, Xiao Yi Xian immediately stopped her healing, jumped off the snake, and came before Xiao Lei.

"purple spirit crystal, how about it? Aren't I amazing!"

Xiao Yi Xian put her hands on her hips, her pretty face full of pride, like a child waiting for praise.

Xiao Lei reached out and stroked her head, saying softly.

"Amazing! First, take two Medicinal Pills for treatment."

No one can become a true strong practitioner without experiencing some hardships, not even Xiao Lei with his System, and certainly not Xiao Yi Xian.

Injuries in battle are inevitable; at least Xiao Yi Xian still had a Rank 5 Demonic Beast to ensure her life.

Having received the desired praise, Xiao Yi Xian's mood instantly improved greatly. This was her first time helping Xiao Lei, and she believed she would continue to do so in the future.

Taking the purple spirit crystal, Xiao Lei directly handed it to Yun Yun. Although this item was also a marvel, it wasn't of much use to Xiao Lei.

Anyway, refining Medicinal Pills would only cause Xiao Yan suffering!

"Thank you!"

Yun Yun gratefully accepted the purple spirit crystal. For such a small piece of amethyst, she had lingered in this Magical Beast Mountain Range for so long, fought twice, and almost died!

Of course, it was also what led Yun Yun to meet Xiao Lei... Thinking of this, Yun Yun couldn't help but chuckle.

"How about it, want to accompany me on this trip?"

Xiao Lei collected the Amethyst Winged Lion King's corpse from the ground. This item was still of great use to him. Don't forget that he had once obtained a method from Otto's Alchemy knowledge that could condense a type of beast flame called "Blood Fire."

The Amethyst Winged Lion King's Purple Sun Bloodline right now wasn't an extremely suitable Materials!

He only needed to find some other Demonic Beast Bloodlines, and Xiao Lei might be able to condense a very powerful beast flame, which was a good choice for Xiao Lei, who currently had no Heavenly Flame.

"Naturally."

The previous battle ended without Yun Yun exerting much effort, and she felt she was in good condition.

"Then let's set off!"

Xiao Lei was still a doer; he acted immediately upon thinking of something!

...Poison Nether Swamp: A non-natural area.

In the core of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, there was such a strange place. To be precise, this place was closer to the territory of the Izumo Empire.

Poisonous mist filled the air, and venomous insects ran rampant.

Special environments always breed special life forms. In the depths of this poisonous swamp, a gigantic figure was coiled beside a blood-red flame.

Looking closely, one could see the figure was entirely emerald green, with nine heads, extremely peculiar!

As the central flame flickered, it seemed to reveal wisps of poisonous Qi emerging from within... As if sensing this situation, the huge snake's pupils suddenly opened, scanned the central flame, and then closed again.

"As expected, it's not that easy, but fortunately, I have plenty of time!"
