After unleashing two spells, one that encompassed the whole village as a protective barrier and the other imprisoning Azzy's allies in a small prison barrier, the winged lion went on assaulting Azzy.
Azzy used this time to activate his Eyes of God soul skill and get ready to battle. As a result, he perfectly evaded its claws by bending his upper body to the side before swinging the scythe at its belly.
The Adamantine blade tore its flesh apart like a knife cut through a tofu block; its blood gushed out and spilled all over Azzy and the black lotus.
The beast flew past Azzy while letting out a painful groan, but Azzy heard another groan beneath him. It came from the black lotus as the blood smeared on it transformed into golden specks of light and left behind tiny holes in the black petals.
Azzy, on the other hand, didn't get affected by those specks of light. If anything, they gave him a sense of familiarity.
