The golden lion king, running on all fours with lightning speed, seemed to be a scene from a movie.
boom!
Suddenly, the lion opened its mouth wide, and a ball of blazing fire shot out, heading straight for Linxi.
Lin Xi's expression changed slightly, and he dodged the fireball with a flash. However, the Golden Lion King's attack did not stop, and another pillar of fire followed closely behind.
"hateful!"
Lin Xi cursed inwardly, his sword flashing like the wind as he severed the pillar of fire. He then charged toward the Golden Lion King, intending to destroy it in one fell swoop.
The golden lion king's four legs streaked across the sky like shooting stars, leaving trails of afterimages; its speed was terrifying.
Lin Xi's face showed a solemn expression.
This early-stage Divine Refinement demon beast also exhibited unusual mutations, making it even more terrifying than ordinary martial artists of the same level.
Lin Xi dared not be careless. With a flick of his sword, he transformed it into beams of light that pierced straight at the Golden Lion King.
"Ding ding ding!"
The golden lion king swung its sharp claws, which collided with Lin Xi's longsword, producing a series of crisp sounds, sparks flying everywhere, dazzling and eye-catching.
Bang!
Lin Xi punched the Lion King in the chest, producing a dull thud.
A thunderous sound erupted from within the Golden Lion King's body as Lin Xi's fist shattered his chest cavity, causing bright red blood to gush out like a fountain.
Then, the Lion King coughed up a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground with a loud thud.
Lin Xi's gaze swept over the lion king on the ground, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes.
This golden lion king's body is exceptionally tough, as if forged from steel, even more robust than a peak-stage late-stage Void Refinement martial artist.
For Lin Xi, such a body was like a great tonic.
Lin Xi walked to the Lion King's side, reached out and grabbed its head, holding it in his hand, and then poured his Yuan Power into it.
Instantly, streams of powerful and pure Yuan energy surged from his body and merged into the Lion King's head.
The golden lion king's eyes were wide open, filled with fear.
But it could not resist.
Lin Xi's strength far surpassed its own; the surging Yuan energy poured in, causing its body to involuntarily swell.
In the blink of an eye, the Golden Lion King's body grew to a height of ten zhang. Lin Xi stared at the Lion King, completely astonished, never expecting that his injection of Yuan Power would cause such a strange phenomenon.
The Golden Lion King roared angrily, and its skin began to molt, turning into a layer of golden armor.
Four strong legs covered in solid armor, making the whole thing look like an iron-cast war god sculpture.
"My God, this guy's defense is incredibly strong!"
Lin Xi was amazed.
His Yuan Power couldn't even budge the Golden Lion King in the slightest.
Moreover, the Yuan energy within the Lion King's body was far more refined than his own.
"Has this guy already advanced to the peak of the early stage of the Divine Refinement Realm?"
Lin Xi felt a chill run down her spine, and a look of horror appeared on her face.
For someone at the peak of the initial stage of the Divine Refinement Realm to possess such terrifying strength is simply an anomaly.
The golden lion roared and pounced on Lin Xi, leaping into the air like a giant mountain and crashing into him.
At that moment, a scene flashed through Lin Xi's mind:
A giant golden lion opened its blood-red maw and swallowed him whole.
"This is bad!"
Lin Xi's expression changed drastically, and he immediately used his lightness skill to escape.
However, as soon as he moved, a golden light flashed, and the Lion King reappeared beside him.
It gripped a sharp longsword in its four claws and thrust it straight at his heart.
Lin Xi hurriedly used his lightness skill to avoid the fatal blow, but two other blows struck his shoulder, leaving deep wounds that exposed bone, from which blood gushed out.
"hateful!"
Lin Xi roared, his figure blurred, and he instantly used teleportation to speed away into the distance.
Upon seeing this, a gloomy glint flashed in the Golden Lion King's eyes.
Although this guy's cultivation level was lower than mine, his strength and speed far exceeded mine, which was really unexpected.
However, it was obviously faster, and in a flash, it caught up with Lin Xi.
Two streaks of black light tore through the void and shot toward Lin Xi with a sharp, piercing whistling sound.
These two beams of black light contained a strong amount of toxins.
"Damn it!"
Lin Xi was furious and dared not be negligent. He immediately activated his internal energy to protect his body.
The black light pierced the energy shield, tearing it open with tiny cracks. Lin Xi sensed that the shield was about to collapse and that he needed to deal with the Golden Lion King as soon as possible.
The lion king roared repeatedly, and golden light burst forth from his body, as if it were cast from gold.
A cloud of black mist emanated from Lin Xi, making him look like a demon and exuding a chilling aura.
The two demonic beasts clashed fiercely, their terrifying auras erupting from them and transforming into a hurricane that swept across the heavens and earth.
While using his lightness skill to dodge the Lion King's attacks, Lin Xi continuously released his vital energy to counterattack.
Suddenly, a golden light pierced through Lin Xi's energy shield and went straight into his chest.
The Golden Lion King let out a tragic roar, his body trembling violently, as if he were enduring endless torment.
Lin Xi's face turned pale. He hurriedly mobilized his Yuan Power and tried his best to stop the mad lion from attacking further.
The golden lion roared repeatedly, stomping its four paws hard on Lin Xi's chest, causing him excruciating pain that almost made him faint.
Lin Xi suppressed the urge to vomit blood, a trace of fear flashing across his face: "How could this be?"
He felt a sharp pain in his chest, and a sense of despair welled up in his heart.
The lion was three feet taller than him, a difference that made him feel powerless to fight back.
Just then, a powerful aura suddenly burst forth from Lin Xi's body.
The Golden Lion King raised its head and roared, its power surging forth several times stronger than before, pressing down on Lin Xi as heavily as a mountain.
Lin Xi's expression changed slightly, and he quickly activated his internal energy to resist the terrifying pressure released by the Lion King.
A crisp sound of bones breaking rang out.
Lin Xi's energy shield shattered instantly, and he was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing heavily to the ground.
Blood spurted from Lin Xi's mouth, staining his clothes red, a shocking sight.
"hateful!"
Lin Xi struggled to his feet, his eyes flashing with a cold light, his aura becoming increasingly sharp, and his body radiating a chilling sword light.
The golden lion roared again and pounced on Linxi once more.
