Soft Watercolor & ink on silk painting of a Surrealistic Portrait by Beksinski of a dark green azure humanoid lion. Its body is intricately sculpted to highlight its immense strength and agility, with veins of golden jade running through it, reminiscent of living, breathing flesh. The lion's eyes glow with a malevolent golden light, and its mouth is filled with sharp, jade teeth. The lion face is framed by tufts of crystalline jade green fur, and its massive paws end in razor-sharp claws. It moves with a surprising grace, each step causing slight tremors. The air around it is heavy with a sense of glory and corruption, as swirling white clouds above block out the sun, casting an unnatural shadow. Despite their terrifying appearance, lion possess an unsettling beauty, apocalyptic and haunting atmosphere, hyperrealistic, sharp focus, Cameron Gray.

The Lion-Lynx Demon (獅猁怪) is a yaoguai who drowns the ruler of the Kingdom of Wuji (烏雞國) in a well, and impersonates the king for three years. After the ghost of the dead king appears to Tang Sanzang in a dream and begs him for help, Tang Sanzang sends his disciples to retrieve the king's body and use a Pill of Immortality to restore him to life. When they confront the yaoguai and expose him as an imposter, the yaoguai transforms into Tang Sanzang to confuse Sun Wukong. However, his cover is blown when he fails to recite the Ring-Tightening Mantra that gives Sun Wukong a headache. Just as Sun Wukong is about to destroy the yaoguai, the bodhisattva Manjusri shows up and reveals that the yaoguai is actually the Azure Lion (青毛狮子) he rides on, and that he was acting on the Buddha's instruction to allow his steed to serve as an obstacle to the protagonists to test their resolve to complete their quest. Once he is done, Manjusri takes back the Azure Lion.
