Chapter 191 - Qilin Lion (2/2)
He called Little Skeleton back to try that out right away.
Little Skeleton seemed a bit confused by the order when it was just enjoying the thrill of chopping its quarry. Still, it listened to Su Ping’s command soon enough and returned, with its bone blade still dripping more blood onto the floor.
Su Ping handed the rings to the skeleton and told it what to do through their spirit connection.
It took Little Skeleton a while to comprehend the new order, during which the Inferno Dragon quickly went on the losing side after losing Little Skeleton’s help; it was being pummeled by the Qilin Lion helplessly.
“Go.” Su Ping urged Little Skeleton so the Inferno Dragon wasn’t further endangered.
Little Skeleton nodded slightly and disappeared. A second later, it somehow flashed on top of the lion’s head, lifted a beast-catching ring, and threw it down.
Ping!
The lion was hopping left and right to find better spots to claw at the Inferno Dragon. Before it could land another hit, its body was frozen solid. It melted into a purple light beam and entered the ring.
“*Whistle* Bull’s eye. Nice!” Su Ping smiled in satisfaction.
He immediately pulled the ring back to him to prevent it from falling into the lava below. If the ring was destroyed, the Qilin Lion would get out and his efforts would have been ruined.
Just like the Flame Blood Dragon, the lion had been ensnared by several impressive chains inside a dark s.p.a.ce, which would dangerously tighten up as the lion struggled.
Su Ping sighed in relief and put the ring away, before he ordered the Dark Dragon Hound to jump into the lava pool and retrieve the material he was looking for. The hound whined and looked at Su Ping with a pair of watery puppy eyes.
Su Ping told the Inferno Dragon to push the hound into the lava pool instead; the ferocious dragon heeded the order after giving its comrade-in-arms an almost sympathetic look.
The hound saw the dragon’s claw coming, yelped in despair, and dived into the lava by itself.
A moment later, it returned to the surface and spat out a stagnant puddle from its mouth that looked like melted metal. Even with enough defensive enchantments, the hound’s mouth and tongue were still burned badly.
Su Ping pulled the puddle into his hand and sensed the comforting heat contained inside, before he placed it into his inventory s.p.a.ce.
Two more materials, and I can finally level up the Solar Bulwark… He beamed at the thought. After breaking through, my body will finally be strong enough to endure the attacks of ninth-ranked warriors.
He already knew where to find one of the remaining materials which was hidden in another “dragon scale land.” This had left him with only one other material to look for.
Without tarrying, he jumped onto the Purple Python and left this sector behind.
