Chapter 126: The Chaotic Magic Beast Mountain Range
The next day, Xiao Ming took Zi Yan to scour the Magic Beast Mountain Range in search of various medicinal herbs.
Even with the talent of perception of medicinal herbs, it was not easy to find them, as perception had a distance limit.
To increase efficiency, Xiao Ming and Zi Yan split up and searched for various kinds of medicinal herbs.
Once they found the medicinal herb, if there was a magical beast protecting it, they would call each other and fight it two versus one.
During this period, the higher-level magical beasts that inhabited the Magic Beast Mountain Range were very unlucky.
Many of them were beaten by Xiao Ming and Zi Yan and stripped of the medicinal herbs they had worked so hard to protect for years.
After being treated like this by Xiao Ming and Zi Yan, those magical beasts felt aggrieved in their hearts, and every night, they would raise their heads to the sky and howl to vent their discontent.
Many of the mercenary groups that chose to enter the mountain at this time of the year were unlucky and suffered heavy losses.
Xiao Ming was unaware of this.
In a hidden, frozen pond, Xiao Ming raised his hand and knocked down a fourth-rank magical beast called Phantom Ice Boa, before approaching the edge of the pond and squatting down.
He plucked a medicinal herb growing on the bank with a strange blue glow.
"Blue Ice Grass, the companion of the Phantom Ice Boa, if consumed without supplementary medicine, it can easily poison a Dou Grandmaster and has a miraculous effect in the Dou Spirit realm. Not bad, it will be of use to Xiao Yi Xian."
Xiao Ming placed this medicinal herb in his storage ring, then stood up to look at the sky.
"Counting time, ten days have passed in the Magic Beast Mountain Range. It's time to leave..."
Suddenly, a violent energy fluctuation and a violent lion roar sounded in the sky like thunder, interrupting Xiao Ming's words.
Xiao Ming's face changed slightly as he heard the lion's roar, his wings appeared on his back and he appeared in the air, his gaze fixed on the distant sky, where the violent energy fluctuation came from.
Soon after, a huge magical beast appeared in Xiao Ming's sight.
This type of Amethyst Lion Birth Essence, when the young beast grew into a fourth-rank magical beast, as long as it devoured it, it could directly become a fifth-rank magical beast, moreover, the purple fire in its body would be stronger than other Amethyst Winged Lions that had not devoured the Amethyst Lion Birth Essence!
Being able to make a fourth-rank magical beast leap to fifth-rank, one could imagine how much energy this item contained, and it was no wonder Zi Yan had stolen it.
This Amethyst Lion Birth Essence was also very important to the Amethyst Winged Lion Clan, and it was normal for the Amethyst Winged Lion King to chase Zi Yan for dozens of miles after discovering it.
Seeing Zi Yan take out the Amethyst Lion Birth Essence, the Amethyst Winged Lion King became agitated and roared loudly.
"Quick, give it back to me!"
"Give it back to you? It could be... or better not" said Zi Yan as she stuck her tongue out at him, then shoved the Amethyst Lion Birth Essence back into her own storage ring under the furious gaze of the Amethyst Winged Lion King.
This blatant taunting caused the Amethyst Winged Lion King to finally lose its patience.
During this period of time, it had also discovered that the two people in front of it were just two Dou Kings, and since they sought death, it could not be blamed for conceding to them!
The Amethyst Winged Lion King bellowed, and from its huge mouth, a low roar echoed through the mountains.
At the sound of the Amethyst Winged Lion King's roar, the amethyst crystal on its body glowed brightly, and in the blink of an eye, raging purple flames erupted from its body, the purple flames gradually coiled and whirled, finally converging into a huge pillar of purple fire that shot skyward. The heat caused the Phantom Ice Boa, which had been knocked out by Xiao Ming, to wake up a few hundred meters below, and when it felt the heat, the Phantom Ice Boa scurried into the pool of water with a whoosh.
"Hmph, who's afraid of you!?" Zi Yan originally wasn't afraid of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, and now that Xiao Ming was nearby, she was even braver, her delicate figure trembled slightly, and she moved straight towards the Amethyst Winged Lion King in an instant, her little fist clenched tightly, a terrifying power brewing in it.
"Humph, a mere Dou King, how dare you to be so arrogant? Know your place." A roar erupted from the huge mouth of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, and with a single vibration of its wings, the huge purple fire pillar on its body smashed into Zi Yan.
The purple fire pillar instantly shot out towards her, and when she felt the fierce and hot energy contained within it, Zi Yan's face became slightly serious as she slowly extended her small fist and pointed her five fingers at the purple fire pillar that shot out towards her.
"Break!"
Boom!
With the sound of her voice, Zi Yan's five fingers shot out a wave of invisible fluctuations that spread out like lightning, and the ten-meter space in front of her was compressed into a ball by an extremely terrifying force, the purple fire pillar passing by was also compressed into that space.
Boom! Another bang resounded in the surroundings, and the purple fire pillar finally burst into a beautiful purple fire flower, the energy in it dispersing completely.
The energy released was so terrifying that it caused the surrounding space to oscillate faintly.
