Chapter 191 Qilin Lion
Not long after, Su Ping arrived at a barren mountain chain fully covered by burning earth and of course, groups of fire-type monsters, who immediately sensed his arrival and crept closer.
Su Ping summoned his Inferno Dragon. The dominating aura of the dragon did a quick job scaring lesser monsters away, while slightly stronger ones stayed inside their territories and trembled.
Without minding the monsters, Su Ping headed straight to the biggest volcano in sight. If his memory served him right, the only threat he would come upon was a Qilin Lion that lived at the mountain peak. It was a superior species among all fire-type monsters who could wield many ninth-rank abilities and was immune to dragon will.
He had previously managed to defeat the lion only by throwing himself to death repeatedly. Just then, however, he was confident that his pets could take on the lion just fine; they had grown a lot stronger since that day.
Rather, Su Ping wasn’t planning to kill the lion this time. He wanted to capture it.
As he expected, he saw a large lava pool at the tip of the mountain, which began bubbling madly upon his arrival.
Abruptly, a pillar of fire was shot his way.
The Inferno Dragon growled, then took a leap ahead and blocked the fire attack in Su Ping’s stead.
Splas.h.!.+
A gigantic creature over a dozen meters in length from head to tail emerged from the lava and stayed afloat above the surface on its burning limbs, gazing down at its enemies with a pair of burning eyes filled with unquenchable anger. Its body was fully covered by glossy, emerald-like scales. Despite its body resembling a bulky lion, it had a long-snouted, reptilian head that was occasionally spitting violet embers. Su Ping summoned Little Skeleton to join him, before he took out four middle-rank beast-catching rings and prayed for a good result.
“Take that!”
Using his astral power, he hurled the rings at the towering beast.
The Qilin Lion felt offended by the attack and summoned a wall of lava, which crashed down upon Su Ping’s position like a tidal wave.
Su Ping quickly pulled the rings back before they were swallowed by the burning liquid.
Welp. I need to subdue it first then. It seems I can’t ambush ninth-rank pets so easily.
Together, Little Skeleton and the Inferno Dragon charged ahead to engage the lion, while the Dark Dragon Hound tried flanking the lion by using its superior speed. Meanwhile, Su Ping stayed outside the conflict zone and hid behind the Purple Python.
It didn’t take long before the Qilin Lion showed several noticeable wounds all over its body, most of which had been caused by Little Skeleton’s unpredictable attacks.
Seeing Little Skeleton fooling their enemy like a pro by teleporting here and there, an idea suddenly flashed in Su Ping’s mind.
Will it work if I let Little Skeleton handle the beast-catching rings?
