"Clang!"
The darkness slashed across the spirit beast's hard scales with a piercing sound, sparks flew, but the spirit beast remained unharmed.
Ji Jiuying then saw the appearance of the spirit beast clearly. It was a level seven two-headed lizard. Two-headed lizards are bloodthirsty and fond of fighting. They have a fierce personality and their scales are indestructible, able to withstand spiritual attacks several times stronger than their own, making them extremely defensive.
Moreover, it has an extremely strong sense of territory and will not allow other creatures to enter its territory. Once they do, it will fight to the death. Obviously, Ji Jiuying has unintentionally entered its territory.
The two-headed lizard exuded a terrifying aura, its spirit fragments reflecting a cold glint. Its several-meter-long tail was thick and powerful; if one were struck by its tail, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Its long, sharp forepaws were like scythes, and on its two ferocious heads, four blood-red eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty light, staring straight at Ji Jiuying.
Enraged that Ji Jiuying had easily dodged its attack, the two-headed lizard swooped down on her again.
Ji Jiuying's lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile. Amidst the swirling smoke, she appeared and disappeared like a ghost, dodging every attack of the two-headed lizard.
However, the level seven two-headed lizard had already developed intelligence and quickly figured out the frequency with which Ji Jiuying appeared and disappeared.
The two-headed lizard's tail suddenly lashed out behind it, startling Ji Jiuying. *Pfft!* She crashed to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Gong Mingyue's eyes narrowed in the shadows, but for Jiu'er's future, he had no choice but to let her fight. Only through countless battles could she grow stronger.
The two-headed lizard gave Ji Jiuying no chance to breathe, opening its blood-red maw as if to swallow her whole.
However, Ji Jiuying nimbly leaned back, spread her arms, and dodged straight back, causing the two-headed lizard's mouth to miss its target.
Just then, Ji Jiuying did a backflip and landed on top of the two-headed lizard, which angrily opened its two blood-red mouths.
Ji Jiuying sneered, "That's exactly what I was waiting for." Before the two-headed lizard could react, the darkness, under Ji Jiuying's mental control, stabbed fiercely at the two-headed lizard's eye. A deafening scream pierced the sky and echoed through the Demon Beast Forest. Ji Jiuying gave it no chance to react, and summoned the Illusion Demon Sword, aiming it at the two-headed lizard's other eye.
Pfft!
The movements were fluid and graceful, blood splattered everywhere, and the roars of beasts echoed continuously.
However, because this was a close-range attack, the spiritual power released by the two-headed lizard in its anger caught Ji Jiuying off guard, causing her to crash directly into the tree roots.
The two-headed lizard was enraged. This damned human dared to stab its eye! It was determined to kill her, drink her blood, and eat her flesh. Its other head was blind and had completely lost the ability to fight.
However, what happened next made Ji Jiuying's eyes widen. She saw the two-headed lizard stretch its head to one side and swallow the blind head whole. The wound was covered with indestructible scales at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The spiritual energy around the two-headed lizard surged violently into its body, causing its internal spiritual power to surge. It raised its head and roared, instantly transforming from a level seven lizard into a level eight lizard.
Ji Jiuying grabbed a handful of pills and swallowed them, her attention completely focused on the two-headed lizard.
The two-headed lizard, now with only one head remaining, possessed explosive combat power. Its entire body was twice as agile, and every move it made carried endless killing intent. However, having learned from its previous experience, the two-headed lizard no longer gave Ji Jiuying a chance to get close.
The gaping maw opened again, spewing out countless streams of venomous mucus. Ji Jiuying's expression turned cold, and she leaped away from the ground. With lightning speed, she summoned the Crimson Fire Phoenix Fan, wielding it fiercely. The fan spewed out countless sparks, the light instantly illuminating the surroundings.
Sizzle!
The slime and poisonous gas were reduced to ashes by the Nine Heavens Mystic Fire.
"Roar~"
Seeing that it hadn't hurt Ji Jiuying, the two-headed lizard roared angrily and lashed out at her with its thick, strong tail at incredible speed.
Ji Jiuying held her breath and quickly dodged, narrowly escaping injury; the tail almost touched her.
Bang! A deafening roar echoed through the Monster Forest, assaulting Ji Jiuying's eardrums and shaking the ground.
The spiritual cultivators training in the Demon Forest were startled by the earth-shaking tremor and loud noise.
"What happened?"
"Could it be an approaching beast tide?"
Some mercenary groups that frequently roamed the Monster Forest quickly shook their heads, denying this claim.
"It can't be a beast tide. Judging from the sound, it should be coming from the spirit beasts in the inner area."
"It could be a territorial battle between high-level spirit beasts, or it could be a battle between a powerful expert and a high-level spirit beast."
Everyone nodded in agreement, agreeing that the mercenary group's words made a lot of sense. After all, battles between high-level spirit beasts and duels between experts and high-level spirit beasts were common occurrences in the Demon Beast Forest. This mercenary group truly lived up to their reputation as people who had spent years venturing into the forest; they were indeed very knowledgeable.
Deep within the Warcraft Forest, a human and a beast are still locked in a fierce battle.
Gong Mingyue stared intently at Ji Jiuying. She was also dressed in a black dress, her slender waist was so small that it could be encircled by one hand, and her hair, tied up high, fluttered in the wind with every move she made. Her beautiful face showed a seriousness he had never seen before, and her clear eyes sparkled like stars. Every move she made exuded her heroic spirit.
Sweat beaded on Ji Jiuying's forehead, her eyes gleaming, her mind racing. She needed to find a way to deal with this two-headed lizard as soon as possible. Just then, the two-headed lizard's nimble, sickle-like claws reached for Ji Jiuying's spot once more.
The speed was so fast that Ji Jiuying had no time to dodge and could only roll around on the ground.
The two-headed lizard turned its head and lunged at Ji Jiuying. Ji Jiuying stood frozen in place. The two-headed lizard's eyes flashed with smugness, thinking she was terrified, and it opened its blood-red maw.
"Jiu'er—"
Gong Mingyue's pupils contracted instantly, his eyes filled with endless tension, his heart pounding in his throat. He leaped towards Ji Jiuying.
Just then, Ji Jiuying looked at the gaping maw so close to her, her eyes slightly raised, revealing an evil smile. She grabbed a handful of pills and threw them fiercely into the two-headed lizard's mouth, then leaped backward.
Because they were too close, the two-headed lizard had no idea that Ji Jiuying had a backup plan. Before it could react, the pill had already entered its abdomen.
The two-headed lizard panicked and tried to force the pill out with its spiritual power, but the pill melted as soon as it entered its mouth.
The two-headed lizard was immediately enraged and spat out countless venoms at Ji Jiuying.
Sizzle!
The venom spilled onto the ground with a chilling sound, and the two-headed lizard opened its blood-red maw and charged forward again.
"Three, two, one."
Ji Jiuying didn't move, but stood still and counted on her fingers.
