Lu Feng's mind raced with disbelief. What kind of prehistoric monstrosity was this—some kind of "enhanced edition" nightmare? The thing lunged straight at him, its rancid stench reeking of century-old rot, as if it had clawed its way out of a mass grave.

"Not a chance!" Ai Liya roared, her voice fierce. A shimmering **Moonlight Barrier** erupted around them, blocking the beast's strike. But the princess paled instantly, blood trickling from her lips. "It's... too strong!" she gasped, trembling in Lu Feng's arms. "We can't hold this forever!"

The monster's claws screeched against the cracking barrier. Each collision sent spiderweb fractures rippling across the shield, jolting Ai Liya's body like physical blows. "I know," Lu Feng muttered, his gaze locked on the frenzy outside.

This thing was leagues beyond an "elite-tier" threat. Their usual tactics were useless. Even their strongest warriors would be crushed like paper.

He turned to Ai Liya, urgency sharpening his tone. "The ancestral power your family guarded—the **Moon Goddess' remnant soul**. You told me it sleeps within you. *Now's the time*."

The princess froze, her hand instinctively clutching her chest. A distant, ancient pulse answered—faint but undeniable. "But Father said... it's too dangerous. I’ve never…" Her voice wavered with primal fear.

"**We have no choice!**" Lu Feng gripped her shoulders, his eyes burning with trust. "This is our only shot. *Believe in yourself*."

Ai Liya glanced at the howling beast, then back at him. Her jade-green eyes hardened with resolve. "I’ll… try."

As she chanted in an ancient tongue, silver light erupted around her. The air hummed with divine pressure—a celestial presence descending. The monster recoiled, snarling at the rising glow.

When Ai Liya’s eyes snapped open, they blazed **lunar silver**, galaxies swirling within.

"**Lunar Descent!**"

Pillars of condensed moonlight *slammed* into the beast. Its obsidian scales shattered under the divine onslaught, ichor spraying as it roared in agony. "Aim for the wounds!" Lu Feng barked. Arrows and spells converged on its weakening body.

The battle turned. Ai Liya floated like a wrathful goddess, her every strike a judgment. Finally, the colossus collapsed, dissolving into black mist.

Cheers erupted—until a *new* sound froze them: **footsteps**, deliberate and unseen, creeping from the shadows.

Lu Feng tightened his hold on the exhausted princess. "Stay close," he whispered. "This isn’t over."
