The battle raged on, a blur of claws and teeth, energy and steel.
With each exchange, Ye Yang felt his body pushing its limits, his mind becoming a battleground of focus and exhaustion.
The Yang Lizard, sensing its opponent's vulnerability, intensified its assault, unleashing a torrent of fireballs and fiery blasts.
Ye Yang, however, refused to yield. He dodged and weaved, his movements becoming increasingly fluid and precise.
With a well-timed strike, he managed to land a critical blow, piercing the creature's tough hide. The Yang Lizard roared in pain, its scales shimmering with a dying light.
But the creature was far from defeated. In a desperate final gambit, it unleashed a devastating energy wave, engulfing Ye Yang in a blinding light.
When the light subsided, Ye Yang stood, battered and bruised, but still defiant. The Yang Lizard, however, was nowhere to be seen.
