Xiao Jian turned his hand, and a small packet of knockout powder appeared between his fingers.
It was a potent concoction he'd once asked Little Doctor Fairy to refine for him.....strong enough to put a tier-2 magical beast straight to sleep, and even a tier-3 creature would struggle to resist it.
He could avoid the two tier-3 beasts with pure speed if he wanted to.
But eliminating them now would make his exit much safer later.
With that thought, a small whirl of azure wind gathered in Xiao Jian's palm.
He flicked the pouch outward, then sent the wind vortex chasing behind it.
The moment the vortex struck the medicine pouch, it burst apart.....white powder blooming into the air like a mist.
Still trembing from the oppressive aura in the sky, the two tier-3 beasts inhaled deeply in their panic.
They didn't even notice the powder seeping straight into their lungs.
By the time they sensed that something wasn't right, dizziness was already taking hold.
Before either beast could react, Xiao Jian's figure blurred.
He reappeared between them....black-and-white flames unfurling across his palms like ghostly ribbons.
With strength bordering that of a Da Dou Shi, and with the terrifying heat of the strange flame, Xiao Jian thrust both hands straight into their skulls.
These weren't Amethyst Winged Lion Kings. They didn't have armor-like amethyst scales.
After a brief tremor, the beasts collapsed lifelessly.
Xiao Jian withdrew his hands, a faint smile flashing across his face.
One of the beasts had dropped a magic core.
He stored the core away, extended his spiritual perception, and walked deeper into the cave.
The interior wasn't as dark as he expected. Scattered along the cave walls were rough natural clusters of violet crystals.
In the human world, these would be expensive decorative stones.
Xiao Jian casually pried off a few chunks and slipped them into his storage ring.
Feeling the growing heat from the crystal resting against his chest, he continued forward.
A long passage led him to a fork.
Xiao Jian tested both routes, sensing the subtle changes in temperature. Finally, he turned right.
Soon, the cramped tunnel broadened into a spacious cave glowing with purple light.
He narrowed his eyes.
Almost the entire chamber was coated in amethyst.
At the center lay a small Amethyst Winged Lion King cub, curled up and sleeping deeply.
Xiao Jian frowned.
He needed this little guy unconscious.
Killing him was out of the question.
If he killed the cub, the adult lion king would sense it instantly
....and a rampaging tier-6 beast, with strength comparable to a Dou Huang, would crush him without effort.
Confident as he was, Xiao Jian knew when to back down.
So he chose the simplest method—drugging it.
He pulled out another pouch of knockout powder Little Doctor Fairy had made.
The corner of his mouth curved slightly before he suppressed his aura and tiptoed forward.
The cub, who felt no threat from Xiao Jian, continued snoring peacefully.
Xiao Jian approached quietly, opened the pouch, and blew lightly.
Wind-attribute Dou Qi surged forth, sending all the powder straight into the cub's nostrils.
Roar!
The cub jolted awake, but found nothing around.....only an unpleasant smell lingering in its nose.
Meanwhile, Xiao Jian had already slipped into the blind spot behind its hindquarters, completely suppressing his aura.
The small lion blinked in confusion. Then sleepiness overwhelmed it.
After swaying a moment, it toppled over.
Xiao Jian sprang into action, pulling a beast-binding rope from his ring and tying the cub tightly before tossing it aside.
Then he took out the diamond-shaped crystal from his chest and began searching the chamber.
Before long, he knelt at the spot where the cub had been lying. He tapped several chunks of amethyst lightly.
A hollow echo came from a stone at the edge, and Xiao Jian's eyes brightened.
He pried the slab open.....blinding violet light poured out, stabbing at his eyes.
Black-and-white flames flickered across his gaze, blocking the glare.
In the hollow beneath lay a fist-sized, jagged purple spiritual crystal, glowing with natural brilliance.
The moment it appeared, the crystal Xiao Jian carried became scorching hot.
He stored both crystals in his ring, then casually took several more amethyst stones.....perfect material for jewelry later.
