Chapter 919: Don't Get Cocky
"Solitaire!"
Looking back at the approaching Metal Devouring Lion, Ning Yue waved the Red Demon Sword in his hand and slashed out several sword waves.
Whoosh!
The overwhelming sword waves surged towards the Metal Devouring Lion.
Ning Yue did not intend to kill the Metal Devouring Lion. His goal was to leave this place and find the Dark Emperor.
"Roar!"
The Metal Devouring Demon Lion looked up to the sky and roared, scattering the several sword waves that Ning Yue had slashed out almost instantly.
"It's so strong!"
Ning Yue's heart skipped a beat. He felt that he might have underestimated the Metal Devouring Lion's battle prowess.
After all, it was a pinnacle Second Grade Human Supreme. Its strength should not be that low.
The difference between demonic beasts and humans was that a Second Grade Human Supreme could even fight against a Third Grade Human Supreme.
"Let's go!"
Although the Metal Devouring Demon Lion easily withstood the attacks of the sword waves, there was a short pause in its movements.
In this short pause, Ning Yue had already left the cave.
"F * ck!"
As soon as he left the cave, Ning Yue could not help but curse when he saw the massive creature in front of him.
The Golden Eyed Bull!
The corpse on the ground was the Golden Eyed Bull!
Beside the Golden Eyed Bull, the Li Flaming Condor was also on its last breath.
"So the battle was not between the Golden Eyed Bull and the Li Flaming Condor, but between them and the Metal Devouring Lion."
Ning Yue immediately understood.
When he was cultivating in the depths of the cave, he had always thought that the battle outside the cave was between the Golden Eyed Bull and the Li Flaming Condor.
Now, it seemed that the battle was between the Metal Devouring Lion and the Li Flaming Condor.
The Metal Devouring Lion was indeed very strong. It was reasonable for it to be able to kill the Golden Eyed Bull and heavily injure the Li Flaming Condor.
"Where do you think you're going?!"
At this moment, the Metal Devouring Lion roared and dashed out of the cave.
"Metal Devouring Lion, don't think that I won't dare to do anything to you!"
Ning Yue held the Red Demon Sword in his hand and said with a cold expression.
At this moment, Ning Yue knew that it was unrealistic for him to leave.
If he could not get rid of the Metal Devouring Demon Lion, even if he ran to the ends of the earth, the Metal Devouring Demon Lion would still chase him.
"Humph! Hand over the Innate Spirit Dew, and I'll leave your corpse intact! "
The Metal Devouring Demon Lion snorted coldly.
"I've said it before, the Innate Spirit Dew has already been refined by me, but you didn't believe me." Ning Yue said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, I'll teach you a lesson."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Yue gripped the Red Demon Sword in his hand and charged forward like a bolt of lightning.
Ning Yue's speed was very fast. He was so fast that he had only taken a few steps when his body fused with the void.
"Roar!"
The Metal Devouring Demon Lion wasn't a pushover either. It stomped on the ground, opened its bloody mouth, and roared.
Huala!
With the Metal Devouring Demon Lion as the epicenter, an extremely terrifying shockwave spread in all directions.
The power of the shockwave was indeed terrifying. The surrounding trees were uprooted and the air was scattered.
"Damn it!"
As the air scattered, Ning Yue appeared in the void.
Cursing silently, Ning Yue injected the Essence in his sea of consciousness into the Red Demon Sword and stabbed it forward.
Chi!
When the Red Demon Sword came into contact with the shockwave, it constantly emitted a sizzling sound.
Although the resistance of the shockwave was strong, Ning Yue was still advancing slowly.
"Roar! Roar!
Roar! "Seeing that Ning Yue was getting closer, the Metal Devouring Demon Lion roared again.
"Suppress it!"
Ning Yue's eyes turned cold. He immediately increased the amount of Essence he injected and continued to advance slowly.
Time was ticking away.
The Metal Devouring Demon Lion's expression grew uglier as Ning Yue advanced.
In the end, the Metal Devouring Demon Lion had no choice but to give up on roaring. Its tail twitched and swept towards Ning Yue's head.
"Chop!"
After the Metal Devouring Demon Lion gave up on roaring, the pressure on Ning Yue disappeared.
Without any pressure, Ning Yue swung the Red Demon Sword at the Metal Devouring Demon Lion's tail.
Bang!
When the two collided, the Metal Devouring Demon Lion felt waves of pain from its tail. Then, its body fell heavily to the ground.
"Ah!"
A hysterical roar came from the Metal Devouring Demon Lion's mouth.
At the same time, the Metal Devouring Demon Lion's aura plummeted. In just a few seconds, it fell from a peak second grade human supreme to an early second grade human supreme.
"Brat, the one I'm going to tear apart is you!"
Despite being at a disadvantage in one move, the Metal Devouring Demon Lion did not give up. Instead, it charged forward and used its front claws to strike Ning Yue's chest heavily.
Facing the charging Metal Devouring Demon Lion, not only did Ning Yue not block it, he even slowly closed his eyes.
"You're courting death!"
The Metal Devouring Demon Lion naturally saw Ning Yue closing his eyes.
The Metal Devouring Demon Lion would not give up such a good opportunity. It gathered all the energy in its body into its front claws and slammed them into Ning Yue's chest.
Bang!
A crisp sound rang out.
"Hahaha, brat, I said I'm going to tear you apart, so I will …"
The Metal Devouring Demon Lion laughed maniacally at the sky.
However, the Metal Devouring Demon Lion's maniacal laughter stopped abruptly before it could even finish.
Ning Yue's eyes suddenly opened, and the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably.
Puff!
The Red Demon Sword in his hand stabbed out.
A dull thud rang out.
The Metal Devouring Demon Lion looked down at the red flying sword stuck in its body. Its mouth was agape, and its face was filled with shock.
"What kind of flying sword is that? How could it stab into my body!"
The Metal Devouring Demon Lion said, "Also, why is your body so hard? Even a Grade 2 Human Supreme would be smashed into pieces by that claw of mine."
The Metal Devouring Demon Lion would never have imagined that Ning Yue's body was so hard that it only took a few steps back.
Comparatively speaking, it was much worse off.
Its powerful claw had failed to injure Ning Yue, and Ning Yue was stabbed by Ning Yue's flying sword instead.
One after the other, the outcome was obvious.
"Looks like the King Middle Grade Phantom Armour is really awesome."
Ning Yue did not answer the Metal Devouring Demon Lion's question, but murmured to himself.
In fact, the reason why Ning Yue did not block the Metal Devouring Demon Lion's attack was that he wanted to test the Phantom Armour's defense.
Although the aura of the Gold-Devouring Demon Lion had fallen from the Pinnacle Second Grade Sovereign Realm to the Initial Phase Second Grade Sovereign Realm, Ning Yue was still shocked that the King Rank Middle Rank Mirage Armour could withstand his attacks.
"If I get more energy in the future, I'll give priority to the Phantom Armour."
Ning Yue secretly made up his mind. If he ever found another treasure like the Innate Spirit Dew, he would give priority to the Phantom Armour.
After all, a good defensive artifact could save his life at a critical moment.
"Metal Devouring Demon Lion, I've already said that you're not my opponent, but you didn't believe me? Now you've shot yourself in the foot, haven't you? "
Ning Yue said as he kept the Red Demon Sword.
"Don't be too pleased with yourself. I've just gone through a huge battle, and I've exhausted a lot of my energy. Furthermore, you used a sneak attack on me. Otherwise, I would have cut you into pieces!"
