"Human woman, why do you disturb this King's rest?" Above the sky, the enormous Amethyst Winged Lion King suddenly roared in human speech.
Mo Yu was not surprised by this. Demonic Beasts, after Cultivating to a certain Rank, possess considerable intelligence. Not only can they speak human words, but they can even transform into human form.
"I wish to exchange something for the Lion King's purple spirit crystal!" As Mo Yu expected, Yun Yun's target was indeed the purple spirit crystal.
"Exchange? Alright, I happen to be in the Transformation stage recently. As long as you can get me a Transformation Pill, I will give you the purple spirit crystal. How about it?" The Amethyst Winged Lion King immediately let out a loud laugh.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yu couldn't help but chuckle, "Is this Amethyst Winged Lion King truly foolish or merely pretending? A Transformation Pill is a Rank Seven Medicinal Pill. It's valuable enough to exchange for the entire Amethyst Winged Lion King itself, so who would trade it for a mere purple spirit crystal?"
As expected, after hearing the Amethyst Winged Lion King's request, Yun Yun shook her head and softly said, "I apologize, a Transformation Pill is something I believe very few in the Jia Ma Empire could produce. However, if you are willing, I can exchange three Rank Five Demonic Cores and a Xuan Rank High Level Cultivation Technique and Dou Qi Skill for it."
Upon hearing Yun Yun's conditions, Mo Yu's brow furrowed. Yun Yun, as the leader of a sect, wasn't offering very good terms.
Three Rank Five Demonic Cores are incredibly precious to others, but for the Rank Six Demonic Beast, the Amethyst Winged Lion King, one of the overlords of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, it would never lack Demonic Cores, even Rank Five ones.
As the King of the eastern Magical Beast Mountain Range, if it wished, a casual sweep would yield several Rank Five Demonic Cores.
As for Xuan Rank High Level Cultivation Techniques and Dou Qi Skills, they are practically commonplace. Even a small city like Wutan City has auctioned off a Xuan Rank High Level Cultivation Technique like the Wind Scroll Art, which shows their value isn't particularly high.
Cultivation Techniques and Dou Qi Skills only truly reveal their extraordinary value and become highly sought after once they reach the Earth Rank.
Therefore, putting aside the inherent conflict between humans and Demonic Beasts, with one making an exorbitant demand and the other offering something deceptive in exchange, a conflict was inevitable.
Indeed, the Amethyst Winged Lion King naturally refused Yun Yun's exchange. After the negotiations broke down, Yun Yun slowly raised the strange longsword in her hand and said with a hint of helplessness, "If that's the case, then I'll have to take it by force!"
With a gentle lift of her delicate hand, as Yun Yun's palm rose, a small, faint green tornado suddenly appeared in the sky. The tornado was initially only two meters in size, but moments later, the tornado storm surged against the wind, instantly growing into a massive tornado several tens of feet tall.
Between heaven and earth, the green tornado roared and spun, and the giant trees on the ground were constantly uprooted by force, then twisted into a sky full of wood chips by the violent whirlwind.
"Hmph, the Magical Beast Mountain Range is not your human territory; it's not your turn to act wildly here!" Gazing at the increasingly massive tornado storm, the Amethyst Winged Lion King roared, and from its enormous mouth, a low growl echoed through the mountain range.
As the Lion's roar resounded, the purple crystals on its body glowed brilliantly. In the blink of an eye, surging purple flames fiercely erupted from its body. The purple flames gradually billowed and churned, finally converging into a massive pillar of purple fire.
Seeing this, Mo Yu quickly hid, leaping away and swiftly running over ten kilometers away.
A clash of this Rank was far beyond his involvement, and even watching from the sidelines posed a considerable danger.
Just as Mo Yu retreated, the battle between Yun Yun and the Amethyst Winged Lion King was in full swing.
Hiding on a hillside over ten kilometers away, Mo Yu intently watched the distant battle, muttering, "The Amethyst Winged Lion King's defense and physical body are extremely formidable, and Yun Yun also understands various profound wind-attribute Dou Qi Skills.
If nothing unexpected happens, fighting like this, I'm afraid the Amethyst Winged Lion King will have to use its true trump card."
No sooner had Mo Yu finished speaking than the battle in the arena indeed changed.
"Human woman, you have worn away my dwindling patience!" The Amethyst Winged Lion King's low growl, subtly carrying an angry Lion's roar, erupted from its massive mouth, and the purple light on the Amethyst Winged Lion King's body grew increasingly intense.
Moments later, a purple radiance enveloped this part of the world. After a period of brewing, the light suddenly contracted. In just the blink of an eye, the pervasive purple glow compressed into a deep purple light pillar only about half a foot long.
"Seal Art." Feeling the energy within that deep purple light pillar, Mo Yu mused, some unique Advanced Demonic Beasts possess special innate talents.
For instance, the Void Ancient Dragon, the strongest race in the Fighting Qi Continent's Demon Beast Realm, naturally controls spatial power and can traverse the Void Realm.
And this Amethyst Winged Lion King, inheriting some unknown Bloodline, actually possesses innate knowledge of certain Seal skills.
Upon seeing this Seal Art, Mo Yu suddenly recalled that the Amethyst Winged Lion King seemed to have a Rank Three cub. Since that's the case, and he wanted to contract a Demonic Beast, why not it?
A Demonic Beast that masters Seal Arts also has greater potential. Once successfully cultivated, it can serve as a formidable combat force and partner, making it highly worthwhile.
Thinking of this, Mo Yu's dark eyes intently watched the battle unfolding in the arena. His upcoming plans would require cooperation with Yun Yun...
At this moment, in the arena, the deep purple light pillar in the sky flashed out like lightning. The speed of the light pillar was terrifying, almost like a flicker. In just two leaps, it appeared not far in front of Yun Yun.
"Purple Crystal Seal!"
The purple light pillar, with an overwhelming momentum, consecutively pierced through dozens of layers of wind shields Yun Yun had set up in front of her, finally shooting into her body.
"Wind Extremity, Meteor Strike!"
The strange longsword in Yun Yun's hand suddenly trembled, and a thin, almost thumb-sized, deep ray of light instantly shot out.
Although sealed, as one of the few powerhouses in the Jia Ma Empire, she was not without trump cards.
"Crack!"
The ray of light sped towards the Amethyst Winged Lion King's head, striking precisely on the red horn on its forehead. The horn was precisely severed in half.
The snapping of the horn caused the Amethyst Winged Lion King intense pain. With a furious Lion's roar, its claw, imbued with unparalleled fierce Qi, heavily struck Yun Yun's chest.
Suffering a heavy blow, Yun Yun immediately spat out a small mouthful of fresh blood, her cheeks slightly pale. Her body suddenly spun around, and with a flutter of her green wings, she instantly vanished into the horizon.
Gazing at the wounded human who could still unleash such terrifying speed, the Amethyst Winged Lion King, its strength diminished due to the broken horn, roared upwards, its voice filled with murderous intent.
"Search for her! You must find that human woman for me!"
Its enormous head looked down at the mountain range. The Amethyst Winged Lion King's ferocious roar, filled with murderous intent, caused all the Demonic Beasts on the mountain to frantically scurry about.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yu's expression also became serious. He circulated his Dou Qi to his feet, swiftly chasing after the green afterimage.
He absolutely had to find Yun Yun before the other Demonic Beasts did!
