204 Strange Beast
However, the Flaming Lion’s claws did not stop because of this. It continued to slap at Lin Sen’s body!
The lion’s claws were incomparably hard, so hard that they could even penetrate steel. It slapped Lin Sen’s shoulder.
Pa! The sound of bones cracking rang out. Lin Sen’s shoulder blade instantly shattered, and his body flew backward.
The Flaming Lion roared proudly. Its body leaped up and caught up to Lin Sen, who was sent flying, before slapping down again.
Clang! This time, the lion’s sharp claws struck his chest, emitting a crisp collision sound.
At the same time, he also punched the lion’s head heavily!
In an instant, both sides retreated at the same time. Blood seeped out of Lin Sen’s fist, and the head of the lion swelled up, with cracks appearing on its forehead.
The lion was stunned by Lin Sen’s punch. It was a little confused. What did I do wrong just now? It looked down at its stomach in confusion. It was suddenly stunned because there was a deep cut on its stomach.
Lin Sen took this opportunity to quickly pull out the huge black sword at his waist and rushed towards the Flaming Lion again!
The lion’s stomach had already been torn. It was powerless to dodge his attack.
The black sword stabbed into the lion’s body, bringing out with it large amounts of blood.
However, at this moment, the Flaming Lion also completely flipped out. It roared, its abdomen contracted, and then it suddenly bounced away.
Boom! Lin Sen’s body was sent flying again.
This time, the muscles on his body shattered inch by inch. Bright red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, looking abnormally terrifying.
Lin Sen stabilized his body. He wiped the blood from his lips and frowned slightly. His injuries were a little serious.
Roar! The Flaming Lion’s body burned with raging flames. Its aura became more and more condensed. It snarled angrily and rushed towards Lin Sen once more.
The energy of the Kabbalah Tree of Life in Lin Sen’s body was quickly mobilized, healing all the injuries on his body.
However, there was still a somber expression on his face.
He knew that this battle had only truly begun.
Lin Sen raised his sword and went forward.
The Flaming Lion’s body was huge and extremely agile. With every step it took, the ground would tremble. Lin Sen had to try his best to control his body. Otherwise, he would also sway with it. This would put him in a disadvantageous position.
“Ha!” Lin Sen roared angrily. His eyes were red as he thrust at the lion with his sword. This was Lin Sen’s full-strength attack.
His sharp blade stabbed into the lion’s chest, and a narrow wound appeared on its body.
The Flaming Lion let out a miserable cry and fell back.
It supported its body with its two front paws and stood up.
Its chest felt a little uncomfortable because Lin Sen had just pierced its heart. If not treated in time, it would probably die no matter how many health points it had.
Tss! The Flaming Lion roared at the sky. Its mouth suddenly became larger and larger, finally turning into a huge black hole.
A pillar of fire was spat out from the Flaming Lion’s throat and shot toward Lin Sen.
The image of a pillar of fire was reflected in Lin Sen’s eyes. The branches of the Kabbalah Tree of Life instantly gathered into a wooden shield in front of him, blocking the pillar of fire.
The wooden shield shattered, and the pillar of fire dissipated.
Lin Sen panted heavily. His clothes were already tattered, revealing his strong upper body.
Fire pillars shot out of the lion’s mouth one after another, dense and violent.
Lin Sen quickly retreated. He avoided the range of the pillar of fire, then raised his black sword and slashed at the lion.
The sharp claws of the lion collided with his sword, immediately causing sparks!
This time, the lion’s tail whipped over and smashed heavily onto his back, flipping him to the ground.
The Flaming Lion’s sharp claws and fangs descended like mad. Lin Sen almost lost his combat strength a few times.
He gritted his teeth. He took out a blue pill from his spatial ring and swallowed it. This was the fruit of the Tree of Life that could be used to recover energy.
A boundless life force spread from his abdomen and nourished his entire body. His entire body was filled with vitality.
He wailed in pain. The lion’s sharp claws had already grabbed his shoulder armor, tearing the surface.
He endured the pain and pushed off the ground with both legs. With the help of this recoil, he leaped away from his original spot.
The Flaming Lion rushed towards Lin Sen again. His right foot stepped on the ground, and a powerful recoil pushed his body toward the lion.
Bang! Lin Sen slapped the lion’s neck. It was instantly stunned and its movements slowed down.
He followed up with another attack. He swung the longsword in his hand and cut a hole in the neck of the lion.
Roar! Roar! Roar! The Flaming Lion was in pain and became even angrier and more desperate. Its claws and fangs kept striking at him.
Although Lin Sen was powerful, he was only an early-stage Class 5 recruit after all. Facing such a Flaming Lion, he was almost killed instantly.
Lin Sen did not dare to hesitate. He kept dodging the sharp claws as he searched for an opportunity.
The lion was too fast. Its attack frequency was too high. Even if Lin Sen could barely dodge the fatal attack, there would always be many hideous wounds on his body.
Not long after, his skin was covered in wounds and blood flowed. His body was dyed red.
The claws, sharp teeth, tongue, tail, and all kinds of organs of the lion were shattered by Lin Sen.
Moreover, he also left huge and hideous wounds on the lion’s body.
However, he possessed the enhancement of the Kabbalah Tree of Life after all. Even though he was severely injured, he could still recover quickly.
The Flaming Lion finally could not support its huge body. It fell to the ground and was on its last breath.
Lin Sen seized the opportunity and jumped up, cutting the lion’s throat.
He had a smile on his face. He had finally killed a Flaming Lion.
He looked into the distance. On the ground in the distance, the corpse of the lion had been separated. Its blood was flowing everywhere, and the bones of its body were shattered.
Lin Sen heaved a sigh of relief. He wiped his sword and walked to the lion. He picked up the fire-element demon core and a fiery red crystal that the Flaming Lion had dropped.
The corpse gradually turned to ashes and drifted away. Lin Sen sat on the ground. He looked at the two items in his hand and revealed a small smile.
