Saber Intent "Jade Shatter," Truly Like a Falling Devil Lord Descending from Heaven!

At this moment, the Unicorn Black Python also discovered the insignificant human before it, foolishly trying to stop a chariot with a mantis's arms!

Its golden vertical pupils revealed a mocking expression.

"Roar roar roar!"

It spat out poisonous mist again, covering the sky and earth, like a large net descending.

"Break!"

Xiao Yang directly channeled his internal energy and unleashed the First Form of the Thunder Prison World Destroying Saber—Heavenly Thunder Flash!

The saber light flashed, and fierce winds howled, carving a vacuum tunnel.

"Clang!"

The next moment, the blade directly struck the Unicorn Black Python's vital spot, seven inches from its head.

"Hit it!"

Xiao Yang was excited internally but quickly discovered that the scales' hardness far exceeded his imagination.

Even though he hit a vital point, he couldn't break through its defenses!

After all, the gap in strength was too great. He was only a Third-grade Martial Artist, while this Unicorn Black Python was equivalent to a sixth-grade!

His actions also enraged the Unicorn Black Python.

It unleashed another move, a "Fierce Dragon Tail Sweep," smashing towards Xiao Yang.

Fortunately, Xiao Yang was wearing the Emperor Grade High Rank "Mysterious Scale Ten Thousand Dragon Armor."

"Dragon's Wrath Resonance!"

He activated the divine ability of the precious armor, absorbing the opponent's attack and transforming it into a True Dragon Phantom to counterattack.

Golden light erupted, and a dragon-shaped phantom flew out, striking the Unicorn Black Python and blasting off dozens of scales.

"That was close!"

Xiao Yang retreated to a safe distance, gasping for air. Even though the Mysterious Scale Ten Thousand Dragon Armor had offset ninety percent of the power, the remaining aftermath made his Blood Essence churn.

If it were a fourth or fifth-grade martial artist, they would have likely been crushed into a pulp.

The next moment, Xiao Yang gripped his saber and looked at the ten-odd-zhang-long Unicorn Black Python, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.

"I don't believe it!"

"If one strike isn't enough, then a hundred strikes, a thousand strikes, ten thousand strikes!!!"

Xiao Yang's figure transformed into a bolt of lightning and shot out again, slashing at the Unicorn Black Python from various angles.

"Clang! Clang! Clang..."

He didn't know how many times he had struck. His tiger's mouth cracked, and his saber's edge even chipped, yet he didn't stop. His entire being seemed to ignite with will.

"Roar roar roar..."

Soon, the Unicorn Black Python's body also bore wounds of varying depths.

Naturally, it was unwilling to sit idly by. It opened its massive maw, its sharp fangs biting at Xiao Yang time and time again.

Each time, Xiao Yang danced on the edge of a blade, teetering on the brink of death...

But this immense pressure also spurred the potential within him, seemingly entering a mystical state!

Man and saber as one!

[Ding! The host has comprehended the Saber Intent "Jade Shatter" during combat!]

[Jade Shatter: A desperate Saber Intent that can burn one's vital essence and spirit for a short period, increasing saber technique power tenfold! However, it consumes the user greatly, even damaging oneself.]

Saber Intent!

Seeing the System's notification, Xiao Yang's heart trembled.

He knew that cultivating weapons could be divided into three realms: Momentum, Intent, and Soul.

Previously, when he fought Huo Gang, the commander of the Vermilion Bird Army, Huo Gang had comprehended the Saber Momentum of the Thunderclap Saber Technique, which was enough to be proud of.

Now, at the brink of life and death, Xiao Yang had skipped "Momentum" and directly comprehended the Jade Shatter Saber Intent.

Better to be shattered jade than intact tile!

Dare to pull down the Emperor with a desperate gamble!

Throughout the entire Great Xia Dynasty, those who could comprehend "Saber Intent" were few and far between. They were often Martial Arts Grandmasters who had cultivated for decades, or great generals in the army.

Yet Xiao Yang was barely a man. If people knew he had comprehended Saber Intent, they would likely be astonished, lamenting that the Great Xia had produced another once-in-a-century Martial Arts Prodigy.

"This strike of mine will cleave the Divine Golden Body from above and split the Mountain River Dragon Vein from below!"

"Where my blade passes, heaven and earth will split!"

Xiao Yang leaped into the air, carrying the will of mutual destruction and the shattering of mountains and rivers, slashing at the Unicorn Black Python.

"Awooo..."

The Unicorn Black Python also sensed the extreme danger. It actually spat out a pale green Inner Core from its forked tongue, from which a sky full of Poisonous Fog erupted, ten times more terrifying than before.

"Vile beast, die for me!!!"

Xiao Yang slashed out with his saber, its power surging continuously, striking the snake's vital spot.

"Crack!"

In an instant, its once solid scales were like paper.

"Whoosh!"

The Unicorn Black Python's vital spot was heavily wounded, and a fountain of blood spurted from the wound, instantly dyeing Xiao Yang a bloodied man.

His battle saber continued to slash down.

"Thump!"

The giant snake's head was cleanly severed and fell into the Yin Water Pool, completely dead.

Xiao Yang stood amidst the blood, truly like a Falling Devil descending from the heavens!

Even if the Heavenly Dao were to collapse, I would still ascend to the highest heavens, supporting the firmament with my spine, boiling the seas with my courage, burning myself to ashes, and never regretting death!

Autumn of 805 in Great Xia Calendar.

The Ninth Young Master of King Zhenbei's Mansion, Xiao Yang, slew a Giant Python in the Yin Water Pool!

Meanwhile, at the entrance to the West Mountain Hunting Ground, night had fallen.

Many of the young masters had already returned, their harvests abundant.

The most prominent among them was the Eldest Prince, Xiao Junlin.

He had slain a Fourth Grade Bear Demon, as well as dozens of Second and Third Grade Demonic Beasts.

"Eldest Brother, you truly live up to your reputation!"

"You are the undisputed champion of this hunting competition!"

"Huh? Why hasn't Ninth Brother returned yet? Could it be he came back empty-handed and was too embarrassed?" the Second Prince teased.

Xiao Junlin, however, was smug, a sinister smile playing on his lips.

Ninth Brother?

He's probably already dead!

Amidst the crowd.

Ning Hongye frowned deeply. Not only had Xiao Yang not returned, but her guard, Qing Luan, was also nowhere to be seen.

She could no longer hold back. Mounting the Night Shining Jade Lion, she prepared to enter West Mountain to search for them.

"Miss Ning, if you're looking for Xiao Yang and Commander Qing Luan, don't bother!" Xiao Junlin said with a smile.

"What do you mean? You know where they are?" Ning Hongye asked coldly.

"Heh heh!"

Xiao Junlin gave a sinister smile. "I told them there was a Heavenly Origin Fruit 50 li north in the Yin Water Pool. They went to search for treasure, hoping to heal your injuries!"

"But I didn't mention that there was also a Giant Python in the Yin Water Pool that had cultivated for nearly a thousand years, with a power comparable to a Sixth Grade Mountain Moving realm expert!"

"Since they haven't returned yet, they're likely beyond saving!"

"If you hurry, you might still be able to collect their corpses!"

Xiao Junlin's tone was nonchalant.

Although it was his scheme, the one who killed Xiao Yang was the Unicorn Black Python, and it had nothing to do with him. His Father King wouldn't blame him.

"Scoundrel!"

Beneath Ning Hongye's mask, her eyes blazed with killing intent. Her hair fluttered as if she were a Female God of Slaughter from a sea of corpses.

"If anything happens to Xiao Yang, it won't just be you... I'll make the entire King Zhenbei's Mansion pay with their lives!!!"

A pervasive killing aura spread out, turning the surrounding thousand-meter radius into an Asura's battlefield, sending shivers down everyone's spines.

The next moment, Ning Hongye urged the Night Shining Jade Lion forward. Her figure was like a rainbow, heading towards the Yin Water Pool in the north.

"Hiss... what terrifying killing intent!"

"Why provoke her? This Fiend Star Woman has massacred cities before!"

"What are you afraid of? With Father King here, she won't dare to act recklessly!"
