If things continue like this, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King is likely to lose.
Su Yun looked up at the sky, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes.
The Frost Double-Headed Hound was significantly stronger than the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King had numerous large and small wounds, clearly suffering heavy injuries.
The Frost Double-Headed Hound, relying on its agility, had dodged many of the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's attacks and was in much better condition.
Given this situation, how did they end up in a mutual destruction?
Su Yun, with a puzzled look, continued to observe the sky.
"Ha ha ha, give up struggling. You're going to lose anyway."
The Frost Double-Headed Hound laughed triumphantly.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King panted heavily, its Martial Qi clearly depleted.
Its angry eyes flashed with fatigue and helplessness.
Previously, with its mate, they had relied on their excellent coordination, not fearing the Frost Double-Headed Hound's speed.
But today, it was alone. Their clan was not known for speed, and the Frost Double-Headed Hound's fangs were extremely sharp, capable of tearing through its defenses.
Hmph.
Seeing that the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King did not respond, the Frost Double-Headed Hound felt annoyed, and its disdain grew even more.
It's already at the end of its rope, isn't it?
A sinister look flashed across the Frost Double-Headed Hound's face.
It attacked the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King again.
The cat-and-mouse game was over; it was time to end it.
The Frost Double-Headed Hound's two heads simultaneously lunged at the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King did not retreat upon seeing this scene; a firm resolve flashed in its eyes.
It did not charge forward or dodge the attack; it simply stayed in place, waiting for the Frost Double-Headed Hound to attack.
Ha, stupid lion, scared out of its wits, huh?
The Frost Double-Headed Hound's face was full of mockery as its two heads bit down hard on the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's face showed a flash of pain, and its two front claws suddenly grabbed the Frost Double-Headed Hound.
A sense of unease flashed in the Frost Double-Headed Hound's mind, and it tried to struggle free.
However, to achieve a decisive victory, its two heads had used all their strength to bite down on the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, leaving its body unable to exert much force, and it could not break free.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King held the Frost Double-Headed Hound tightly, its massive body surging with Martial Qi, drawing energy from the heavens and earth, causing ripples in the sky like the ebb and flow of the sea.
Feeling this Martial Qi fluctuation, the Frost Double-Headed Hound's face changed dramatically.
Damn it!
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King let out an angry roar, its massive body glowing with purple light, like a purple sun in the sky above the Beast Mountain Range.
"Amethyst Crystal Seal!"
With the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's roar, a purple light column pierced through the Frost Double-Headed Hound's body.
As the light column entered the Frost Double-Headed Hound's body, its Martial Qi fluctuation noticeably decreased, growing weaker with time.
"Damn it, you can actually use a sealing technique!"
The Frost Double-Headed Hound's human-like face lost its usual composure, its cunning expression now filled with shock and anger.
"Hmph, even if you seal my Martial Qi, what can you do?
We, as magical beasts, have powerful physical bodies. You are heavily injured, and after such a long battle, your Martial Qi is far from its peak. This sealing technique must also consume a lot of Martial Qi.
How much Martial Qi do you have left now?"
After the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King used the Amethyst Crystal Seal, its hold on the Frost Double-Headed Hound loosened slightly. It took advantage of this gap to struggle free, its two heads still clenching large chunks of flesh.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's body was a mix of red and purple, blood dripping from its wounds.
"This is enough!"
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, despite its injuries, charged at the Frost Double-Headed Hound.
Its lion claws grabbed the Frost Double-Headed Hound, and the two beasts fell from the sky into the Beast Mountain Range, a loud crash echoing through the forest, lingering for a long time.
Now that the Frost Double-Headed Hound's Martial Qi was completely sealed and it lacked wings, it could not fly.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King also wanted to conserve some strength for the attack.
The battlefield shifted from the sky to the ground. As the two beasts fought, large areas of trees were flattened, and the ground was left in ruins. Everywhere they went, no forest remained intact.
Even without Martial Qi, magical beasts still had powerful physical bodies, but their combat effectiveness was affected.
The most obvious change was that the Frost Double-Headed Hound, without the enhancement of Martial Qi, had a noticeable decrease in speed.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King once again tried to use its hard horns to gore the Frost Double-Headed Hound.
This time, it succeeded. The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's horns, its hardest and sharpest part, pierced through the Frost Double-Headed Hound's body, which was not known for its physical strength.
"Aaaah!!"
The Frost Double-Headed Hound let out a painful howl. This battle had gone on for so long, and it had never been so heavily injured.
The Frost Double-Headed Hound's eyes were filled with blood, and it fought fiercely with the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.
By now, they were both fighting with red eyes, determined to kill or be killed!
Su Yun watched the two beasts from a distance, his mind racing.
It's almost over.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's attack had pierced through the Frost Double-Headed Hound's body, and blood gushed from its wounds.
Su Yun's figure flashed, and he returned to the Beast Mountain Range.
A fierce aura hit him, the strong wind stinging his face.
Su Yun felt a sense of awe.
This aura was far beyond what he could imagine, after all, he was just a Great Martial Master.
If not for the System Space, he might have been crushed into a pulp by the aftermath of the battle.
Su Yun continued to use the Mysterious Shadow Technique to conceal himself, slowly moving towards the battlefield.
If he encountered a powerful aftereffect, he would immediately retreat to the System Space.
Thanks to the Soul Technique, his soul was extremely powerful, and his reaction time was very fast.
This was far beyond what a Great Martial Master of the same level could achieve.
Thus, he managed to reach the vicinity of the battlefield without encountering any attacks.
Su Yun stayed in the System Space, not daring to get any closer.
This distance was close enough; there was no need to take unnecessary risks.
Su Yun's heart was racing, his breathing heavy, and his face was covered in cold sweat.
Damn, this is intense!
To plan the retrieval of a Sixth-Rank Demon Beast's remains with the strength of a Great Martial Master was simply crazy!
Just as Su Yun approached the battlefield, the two beasts engaged in several more rounds of fierce combat.
The Frost Double-Headed Hound's body now had several more holes, and the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's skin was almost completely torn.
Both beasts were covered in blood, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.
They were both fighting with red eyes, completely ignoring their own injuries.
