Chapter 47: Associated Purple Crystal Source
"Long Kui, do you have a chance of winning against the Amethyst Winged Lion King?" Xiao Se asked hesitantly.
Long Kui nodded first, then shook her head and said, "It should be possible, but the rules of this world are rather strange. I am only a soul-body, and I can't use my full strength at all. At most, I can exert the strength equivalent to the peak of a human Dou Huang."
"What about if it attaches to my body?" Xiao Se continued to ask.
Long Kui smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "Brother's current physique and soul can only withstand a very small part of my strength. To some extent, it is not even as easy as fighting alone."
Hearing this, Xiao Se suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Then don't waste your energy. Although we are not afraid of fighting, we should outsmart them if we can. If you waste your precious soul power for nothing just for a little thing in the beast cave, it will not be worth it."
"Okay, I'll listen to my brother." Longkui nodded slightly and smiled.
Xiao Se said seriously: "Although I have released the Vast Sea Shield, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King cannot see our figures or detect our breath, but there is a limitation. If I move a long distance, the fighting spirit in my body will be consumed quickly. I'll trouble you to take me over later."
"Long Kui understands." Long Kui nodded solemnly, picked up Xiao Se, and flew towards the cave of the Amethyst Winged Lion King.
Lying in Longkui's arms, Xiao Se's cheeks felt slightly hot. It was so embarrassing to be held in a princess hug by a girl.
Xiao Se and the other man flew over the head of the Amethyst Winged Lion King without any sign of being discovered. They flew past the magical beasts guarding the cave entrance. The guarding beasts were only level four at most, so they could not be discovered.
In Long Kui's embrace, Xiao Se entered the cave. It was a naturally formed cave. The light inside was not dim. On the surrounding cave walls, there were many purple crystals inlaid, emitting bright purple light.
Taking a quick look at the beautiful cave, Xiao Se couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of nature.
Xiao Se smiled and shook his head. He had no time to appreciate the cave. He whispered, "Long Kui, go in. If there is a fork in the road, we will go to the left."
"Yeah." Long Kui nodded slightly, quickened her pace, and walked quickly into the cave. Because of the Hanhai protective shield concealing their breath and body shape, Xiao Se and the others did not have to worry about being discovered.
After passing through many passages, they finally arrived at a fork in the road after a while. With Xiao Se's reminder, Long Kui ran into the left fork without any hesitation.
Soon, a stone platform made of purple crystals appeared in the eyes of Xiao Se and the others. On the stone platform, a purple ball the size of a basketball was quietly placed there.
"Is this... the companion purple crystal source?" Looking at the purple sphere on his body that was emitting blazing high temperatures all the time, Xiao Se's breathing became a little rapid.
"Brother, is this what you need? Do you want me to help you open it?" Seeing the excited expression on Xiao Se's face, Long Kui glanced at the purple ball and asked.
Hearing this, Xiao Se shook his head and said, "It's useless to rely on brute force. This thing will absorb attacks and cannot be broken. It can only be broken by the purple spirit crystal that fell off the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. Let's go to another fork to get the purple spirit crystal. If nothing unexpected happens, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King cub is over there, and it must have a purple spirit crystal hidden next to it."
"Yeah." Long Kui nodded slightly, her figure flashed, and she ran out of the fork in the road holding Xiao Se and headed towards another fork in the road.
After a while, the two of them had a wider view again. In the center of the cave, they saw a small purple crystal-winged lion king lying there, sleeping lazily.
Looking at the much smaller Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, Xiao Se's mouth curled up slightly, outlining a strange arc. Then he lightly touched his waist, and a light purple fruit fell into his hand. With a casual throw, Xiao Se threw it out of the coverage of the Hanhai protective shield and landed next to the little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.
"Brother, what is this?" Longkui asked puzzledly, looking at the lavender fruit that Xiao Se casually threw out.
"Hehe, this is the Purple Smoke Fruit. Fire-attributed magical beasts all love this thing. I added a special-effect knockout drug and anorexia flower juice into it. This little guy will have to sleep for at least an hour after eating it." Xiao Se laughed.
Ordinary knockout drugs are naturally unable to do anything to the third-grade Amethyst Winged Lion King in front of him. At most, they can make it doze off. However, it would be different if the drugs were made from medicinal materials that are more than a thousand years old.
The Purple Smoke Fruit appeared outside the Hanhai protective shield, and immediately a strange fragrance filled the air. The little lion king was awakened by the tempting aroma, and just as it was about to swallow it, a strange red light hit its forehead. The little lion king's limbs bulged, his eyes turned white, and he fainted instantly.
Longkui's sweet voice rang beside Xiao Se's ears, "Brother if you want to knock it out, there's no need to go through so much trouble."
"Uh." Turning his head to look at Long Kui who had retracted her jade hand, Xiao Se's mouth twitched and he gave her a thumbs up, "Awesome."
Slowly walking to the place where the little beast had been crawling before, Xiao Se knocked on more than ten flat and smooth amethyst stones one by one. Finally, an empty muffled sound was heard from the side.
Hearing the muffled sound, Xiao Se was delighted. He quickly opened the amethyst slab with his hand, and a strong light burst out. The dazzling purple light made it difficult for Xiao Se to open his eyes.
The light was restrained, and a fist-sized diamond-shaped purple crystal came into the eyes of Xiao Se and the others.
"Is this the Purple Spirit Crystal? The energy inside is indeed very rich, but it is much weaker than the accompanying Purple Crystal Source." Long Kui looked at the Purple Spirit Crystal curiously and spoke slowly.
"Well, let's go. Let's go get the companion purple crystal source before those beasts outside find out." Xiao Se nodded slightly and urged.
With the help of Longkui, the two came to the cave where the purple crystal source was located again. Without much hesitation, Xiao Se held the purple spirit crystal, with the sharp part of the purple spirit crystal facing downward, and stabbed it straight into the purple ball on the purple crystal platform.
"Crack!"
Like the sound of a crystal shattering, a crack appeared on the surface of the purple sphere. It was silent for a moment, began to spread, and then with a bang, a small hole was blown out.
The purple liquid flowed out of the small hole. Xiao Se was quick-eyed and quick-handed, grabbing the eight jade bottles with both hands and taking them one by one.
At the same time, the Amethyst Winged Lion King, who was taking a nap outside the cave entrance, sensed something strange in the cave. He suddenly opened his eyes, let out a deafening roar, turned around, and rushed into the cave, his figure as fast as a ghost.
"Whoever dares to trespass into my territory without permission, I will kill him. I will kill him." As he spoke, the Amethyst Winged Lion King sped up a bit.
Out of blood ties, the Amethyst Winged Lion King took the lead in rushing to the fork in the road where the cub was, but he saw the little beast lying unconscious on the ground, and the purple spirit crystal was missing.
After checking that the cub was not in danger of life, the Amethyst Winged Lion King breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and roared, "Not good, the Companion Amethyst Source."
Then, with an angry roar, he rushed to another branch of the cave.
