Emperor Wu Shihuang's handwriting, do not go out of the Milky Way border

In response to Yinglong's proposal, Ying Zheng pondered for a moment and then slowly nodded. He could feel that Yinglong was eager to prove himself, so Ying Zheng did not reject Yinglong's proposal.

"Then do as you said. I will go to the left and leave the road on the right to you. I don't want you to die in vain. If you encounter danger, remember to retreat at the first time."

Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Ying Long nodded immediately.
"Subordinates take orders."

After saying this, Yinglong turned around and walked into the fork on the far right.

As soon as he walked in, Yinglong immediately saw a huge lion in front of him. It is not quite accurate to call it a lion, because this lion only has a lion head and a normal human body below the head.

The lion was holding a steel knife in his hand and was looking at Yinglong who suddenly appeared with a ferocious look on his face.

"How dare you, you daring demon, trespass into our forbidden land? You'll kill me!"

The lion didn't give Yinglong a chance to speak and rushed towards him, waving the steel knife in his hand. Yinglong didn't expect the other party to act so quickly. In a hurry, he could only raise the sword in his hand to block the lion's steel knife.

Keng!
With a crisp sound, the steel knife and the long sword collided with each other. The lion was very powerful, and this knife almost knocked the long sword in Yinglong's hand out of his hand.

Feeling the tremendous power coming from the sword, Yinglong was also quite shocked, but he reacted quickly. He swung the sword horizontally, and the sharp sword slashed towards the lion's belly.

When the sword was swung out, the lion reacted immediately. It swung its steel knife downwards fiercely, knocking the sword down. At the same time, the lion quickly retreated, avoiding the attack range of the sword.

Although this sword did not hit the lion, it had forced him back. This gave Yinglong enough time and space to prepare. The long sword in his hand was wielded by Yinglong with great force. One after another, the sword blades flew towards the lion, and each sword blade carried astonishing power.

When the lion saw Yinglong's attack, a sarcastic smile appeared on his face. In the lion's view, such an attack was insignificant.

The lion casually picked up the steel knife in his hand and swung it a few times, dispersing all the sword beams shot by Yinglong.

At the moment of breaking up Yinglong's attack, the lion said:
"These attacks are too weak. Are you trying to tickle me?"

Yinglong also knew that the moves he had just used could not pose much threat to the lion. The reason why he sent out these sword beams was to buy himself time to mobilize the spiritual energy in his body and use more powerful moves.

"Since you want to see my more powerful moves, I will satisfy you!"

After saying that, Yinglong roared and actually revealed his true form. A giant dragon several miles long appeared instantly. There was a light purple light flashing on its four claws, and the scales on its body also emitted purple light.

The lion was a little surprised after seeing Yinglong's true form. However, he still did not take Yinglong seriously, because he was also a monster, and his true form was no worse than Yinglong's!
So, in the next moment, the lion revealed his true form. A lion several dozen meters tall with strong limbs suddenly appeared. He was standing on the ground with red eyes, staring fiercely at Yinglong in the sky.

"If I'm not mistaken, you should be a Yinglong, right? Come, let me see the strength of this ancient monster!"

Yinglong heard this and said in a low voice:
"Then let's do it!"

Having said that, Yinglong rushed directly towards the lion, with purple light shining brightly on his sharp claws. It was obvious from the looks of it that this attack was extremely powerful.

The lion naturally would not sit still and wait for death. It suddenly jumped up, stretched out its two front paws, and collided heavily with Yinglong's paws, making a huge roar.

In an instant, with Yinglong and the lion's claws as the center, space cracks appeared instantly and spread out in all directions. A terrifying aura emanated from the space cracks.

At the moment of collision, Yinglong instantly felt an astonishing force coming over him. He did not expect that the lion had such terrifying power. Before this, he thought that the lion had some strength, but definitely not very strong.

But unexpectedly, after a fight, he realized that the strength of the lion in front of him was really impressive and definitely not inferior to him.

However, Yinglong did not know whether the magical treasure that Ying Zheng wanted was behind this lion, so he could only defeat the lion in front of him to find out what was behind the lion.

At the same time, a solemn look appeared on the lion's face, because he also felt the power of Yinglong's attack. As a guardian beast, he had naturally fought with many people, but this was the first one who was as strong as Yinglong.

"I didn't expect you to be quite strong. However, these two moves are not enough to defeat me and get the treasure behind me!"

As he said this, all the hair on the lion's body stood up, and each hair was wrapped with spiritual energy. Then, under the lion's urging, the spiritual energy attached to the hair was quickly emitted.

These spiritual energies were like silver needles, quickly hitting Yinglong's body.

Yinglong didn't feel much pain when each needle-shaped spiritual energy hit his body, but the number of needle-shaped spiritual energy shot out by the lion was too large this time. The spiritual energy like a vast ocean directly covered Yinglong's entire body. Even with Yinglong's strong physical strength, he could not withstand this attack.

This attack left many tiny blood holes on Yinglong's body, and blood flowed out from these blood holes.

Yinglong did not expect that the lion's attack would be so powerful, so he did not hesitate at all. He opened his mouth and condensed all the spiritual energy in his body in front of his mouth. A deep purple spiritual ball appeared instantly, slowly condensed, and grew larger and larger.

The moment this spirit ball appeared, a terrifying pressure enveloped the lion.

After seeing this move, the lion immediately showed an expression of being ready for battle. He could feel the powerful pressure from the spirit ball. He knew very well that if he did not use all his strength to deal with this move, he would most likely be defeated by it.

So the lion stopped talking, and the steel knife that he had thrown on the ground flew up instantly and stopped in front of the lion.

Then, the lion poured all his spiritual energy into the steel knife. The steel knife instantly became transparent and its size began to increase rapidly. After just a few breaths, the size of the steel knife was comparable to that of a lion.

At the same time, the lion stopped infusing spiritual energy into the steel knife, because all the spiritual energy in his body had been gathered in the steel knife.

Yinglong also very quickly condensed all the spiritual energy in his body into the spiritual energy ball. He did not hold back at all, because he knew that this move would determine the outcome. If he held back at all, it might lead to his defeat.

In this situation, if he failed, he would most likely die at the hands of the lion in front of him, which was not the result he wanted.

Soon, Yinglong and Xiongshi used all their moves.

boom!
Both of them flew towards each other with amazing power. A steel knife and a huge aura ball collided in the air. A huge explosion sounded, and the two energies collided violently in the air. Every time they collided, a aura wave would be emitted. The aura wave generated by the explosion alone had already turned all the surrounding trees and rocks into dust.

The spiritual steel knife swung by the lion was very powerful. Although it had no strength and the entire blade was made of spiritual energy, it was extremely sharp. After a cup of tea, the steel knife made of spiritual energy blasted the entire spiritual ball apart.

After seeing this scene, Yinglong was stunned on the spot. He really didn't expect that his full-strength attack would be taken by the lion so easily. Not only that, the steel knife made of spiritual energy still flew towards Yinglong with the remaining spiritual energy.

At this time, Yinglong no longer had any spiritual energy in his body, so how could he possibly take on this move? If this move hit Yinglong, he would at best be seriously injured. In a more serious case, he would most likely die without a burial place.

Boom!

The spiritual steel knife hit Yinglong's body hard, directly blasting Yinglong away and falling heavily to the ground.

The huge body left a huge hole several feet deep on the ground. For a moment, dust flew up, covering the sky and the sun.

Under this huge impact of spiritual energy, Yinglong could no longer maintain his state of controlling the heaven and earth. His body shrank a lot in an instant. He curled up into a ball in the big pit, lying in a pool of blood.

Seeing this scene, the lion changed back into a human body with a lion head. In a flash, he came to the edge of the pit and leaned over to look at Yinglong who was lying in the pit unable to move.

"You are indeed strong, but it is not enough to defeat me! After you go to the underworld, remember to tell the King of Hell my name. My name is Lion Ben!"

After saying this, the lion's hand once again condensed a wave of spiritual energy and shot it towards Yinglong. The lion warrior must not let Yinglong recover, otherwise, with Yinglong's strength, his victory this time was very lucky, and if it happened again, he would most likely lose to Yinglong.

Just in case, Shi Ben decided to kill Yinglong while he was powerless to resist.

But just when this spiritual energy wave was about to hit Yinglong, a dazzling light instantly shot out from Yinglong's body, directly blocking the Shi Ben's attack.

"Impossible! How is this possible! How can he still have such spiritual energy!"

Shi Ben never expected that his attack would be blocked, and he was extremely shocked for a moment.

However, things have come to this point, and Shi Ben decided to go all out and get rid of this enemy no matter what.

So, Shi Ben forcibly mobilized the remaining spiritual energy in his body, and sent waves of spiritual energy towards Yinglong one after another.

"This is all the spiritual energy I have, die!"

Immediately afterwards, a series of explosions sounded, and Shi Ben just looked at the light of the explosion, waiting for the final result.

He thought he could completely kill the enemy lying in the pit, but after the light faded, Shi Ben was surprised to see that Yinglong had stood up, and there was no injury on his body at all, as if the person he had hit before was not the one in front of him.

At this time, Yinglong's injuries had all recovered. Not only that, his cultivation had also improved again, from the early quasi-saint stage to the middle quasi-saint stage.

When he looked at the Lion Guard again, a sneer appeared on Yinglong's face.

In Yinglong's eyes, the current Lion Ben is not to be feared at all. He would not take the Lion Ben in good condition seriously, let alone the Lion Ben who has no spiritual energy now.

"Now, you have two choices. One is to be killed by me, and the other is to give me the treasure you are guarding. It's your choice."

Shi Ben did not expect that at this critical moment, Yinglong's injuries were healed instantly, and his cultivation level was also greatly improved.

Shi Ben really didn't expect this result.

But as a guardian beast, he will not and absolutely cannot hand over the treasure before he dies.

So, the lion warrior quickly retreated and ran towards the only remaining small tree not far away.

The moment he ran to the small tree, a smile appeared on Lion Ben's face again. Under this small tree was where the treasure was stored. The reason why Lion Ben ran here was to absorb spiritual energy from the treasure to restore the spiritual energy in his body.

"Now that things have come to this, why do you still need to waste time doing these things? Hurry up and give me the treasure, why not? You can still keep your life."

Yinglong didn't want to kill Shi Ben either, his goal was just to get the treasure.

But Shi Ben didn't want this to happen. He took advantage of Yinglong's speech to frantically absorb the spiritual energy in the treasure. After a few breaths, Shi Ben's body was filled with spiritual energy again. Not only that, Shi Ben also improved his cultivation through this treasure.

However, Shi Ben’s realm was not as terribly improved as Yinglong’s.

This is also because their experiences are different.

Shi Ben only absorbed the spiritual energy lent to him by the spiritual treasure, but Yinglong actually absorbed all the medicinal power of the spiritual treasure-level elixir.

As for where this pill came from, it was given to him by Ying Zheng before.

The reason why Ying Zheng gave this pill to Yinglong was because during the previous battle, Ying Zheng had already learned about Yinglong's cultivation level, which was at the early stage of quasi-saint. Such cultivation level would definitely not be enough to face the enemies he would encounter in the future, and he would most likely be seriously injured.

That's why I gave him this pill.

The effect of this pill is that it can heal the user's injuries and improve his cultivation when he is close to death.

How much the cultivation realm is raised is entirely determined by the user. The reason why Yinglong was able to jump a level and directly reach the middle stage of Quasi-Sage is entirely because Yinglong's cultivation had already reached the early stage of Quasi-Sage before this.
