Chapter 169: A Battle at the Dou Huang Level!
Boom!
A powerful explosive sound erupted from the other side of the cliff! A strong gust of wind swept up a violent storm around them!
Jiang Lin reached out and grabbed Xiao Yan, who was trying to flee, his expression calm as he lay on the spot, silently watching the sky covered in red and blue, and the explosions that continued to roar like thunder from behind them.
"Don't move, it's too close. Running around will make you a target," Jiang Lin's voice softly reached Xiao Yan's ear.
"Listen to Lin Xiaozi. Spiritual sense is very effective in this situation," Yao Chen also spoke faintly in Xiao Yan's mind. His perception range was further than Jiang Lin's, so he understood what was happening behind them. It was a fight between two Dou Huang-level experts. He could shield them, so he didn't provide any additional help, only using his soul power to cover Xiao Yan's aura.
As for Jiang Lin, there was no need for Yao Chen to worry. His aura-blocking ability was just as good as Yao Chen's.
"Someone is fighting the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King!" Xiao Yan was pulled by Jiang Lin and, not running anymore, he crouched behind the cliff, quietly observing the fierce battle in the sky. A tall woman dressed in plain clothes, with large green wings on her back, holding a long sword glowing with blue light, was using terrifying wind-type Dou Techniques to battle the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.
The sky kept erupting with explosions from the red and blue Dou Qi. The previously peaceful white clouds in the sky were shredded by the violent Dou Qi winds!
Thunderous booms of the battle could be heard, and the surrounding forest and mountains were damaged to varying degrees by the battle. The fight between two Dou Huang-level experts was truly terrifying!
"Try not to look directly at those stronger than you, or you'll be noticed," Jiang Lin, resting his arms behind his head and watching the red and blue Dou Qi in the sky, whispered to Xiao Yan, who was quietly lying down, watching the battle between the Dou Huang-level woman and the Sixth-Tier Magical Beast, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.
"Yao Lao's strength is strong enough to shield your aura. Otherwise, your movements earlier would have exposed your position," Jiang Lin continued.
Yao Chen nodded in Xiao Yan's mind: "Lin Xiaozi is right. Unless your soul realm surpasses the other's, it's best not to directly look at a stronger person, or you will be noticed. But for now, it's fine. I've got you covered, so you can watch the battle of top-tier experts up close!"
Xiao Yan nodded and continued watching the battle from his position, lying down and watching the woman with the blue wings and the massive Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.
"Lin Ge, who's stronger?" Xiao Yan suddenly asked. He noticed that the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's defense, with its full set of purple crystal armor, was astonishing. The mysterious woman's blue Dou Qi attacks barely left any noticeable injuries on the beast. Meanwhile, the mysterious woman had to constantly dodge the attacks from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King!
"Generally, at the same level, it's hard for a human Dou Huang to defeat a Sixth-Tier Magical Beast alone," Jiang Lin replied, resting his arms behind his head and watching the red and blue sky.
"We should go!" Suddenly, Jiang Lin stood up, grabbed Xiao Yan's arm, and rolled toward the back of the cliff. The Lan Eagle nearby quickly rolled on the ground, too afraid to fly.
"What?" The sudden change caught Xiao Yan off guard, and before he could react, he was being dragged by the powerful Jiang Lin toward the back of the cliff. In the next moment, Xiao Yan understood what was happening.
A terrifying, ten-meter-long green Dou Qi wind blade was shattered by the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's claw, and a large piece of the green wind blade was flying straight toward their cliff!
Boom!
The rocks fell, crashing to the ground and producing a deafening rumble like thunder.
"Xiao Yan, now do you understand how terrifying Jiang Lin's spiritual sense is?" Yao Chen's voice faintly sounded in Xiao Yan's mind. Being affected by the battle skills of a Dou Huang, Yao Chen had naturally noticed. However, with Jiang Lin's presence, he wouldn't intervene unless necessary.
Sometimes, letting Xiao Yan experience the battle power of top-tier experts was also good for refining Xiao Yan's mindset.
"Human woman! Why disturb this king's meditation?!" As Jiang Lin and Xiao Yan found a higher vantage point to observe the battle, the fight suddenly stopped. The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, flying in the air with its massive purple crystal wings, coldly stared at the Dou Huang woman in front of him, and suddenly spoke in human language.
The opponent's strength was not something an ordinary Dou Huang could compare to. The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King seemed to be struggling to defeat the woman, so it decided to speak and ask. The woman's strength had earned her the right to be addressed.
The main reason, of course, was that the woman was a Wind-type Dou Huang, fast, and the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, being a flying magical beast, was not particularly fast. If she wanted to escape, it couldn't catch up. So, it finally chose to pause its attack.
"Purple Crystal Winged Lion King! I wish to use the Purple Spirit Crystal!" The woman, stretching her green Dou Huang wings, silently looked at the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King and spoke in a crisp voice.
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's combat power exceeded her expectations. She couldn't rely on brute force to obtain the Purple Spirit Crystal.
"Hmph! The Purple Spirit Crystal?! My clan can only condense one every twenty years. How can I just give it to you so easily? Unless you bring me a Transformation Pill!" The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King roared, demanding a seventh-grade Transformation Pill.
"Heh, what a lion's roar! The Transformation Pill that can allow a magical beast to transform perfectly, giving it the cultivation speed of a human and the lifespan of a beast, is far more precious than your Purple Spirit Crystal," Yao Chen's voice faintly sounded in Xiao Yan and Jiang Lin's minds from the distance.
"Well, it's a lion, so roaring is normal," Jiang Lin looked up at the two Dou Huang experts in the sky, his voice calm.
Unfortunately, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's lair was not far from here. Otherwise, Jiang Lin would have already begun sneaking over to give the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King a taste of what it's like to be "robbed."
If Jiang Lin forced the issue, he believed he could still do it, but he would face attacks from both Dou Huang-level experts, and Jiang Lin wasn't willing to take such a risk.
"Lin Ge's right," Xiao Yan said quietly, after thinking about it.
"The real fight is coming," Jiang Lin said, looking up at the distant sky.
The mysterious Dou Huang woman sighed softly. Then, a fierce wind began to blow, causing large parts of the forest to be scattered. The wind eventually gathered on the woman's blue sword.
"The Lion King is like this, then I'll take it by force!" A blue tornado swirled in the air!
