11: Top sword intent!
"Can... can I not go?"
Li Xiaoxue looked at Su Changqing pitifully. To survive, she even pulled down her collar, trying to seduce Su Changqing.
Seeing this, a hint of disdain flashed in Su Changqing's eyes.
That's it?
Are you kidding me?
You know the famous Immortal Maiden Gu, right?
She's his!
Therefore, how could he be interested in such a common woman?
The longsword in his hand coldly rested on Li Xiaoxue's neck.
"What do you think?"
Looking at Su Changqing's icy gaze, Li Xiaoxue's heart sank to the bottom.
She knew seduction was probably impossible.
The only way to survive now was to lure out that Heavenly Ice Python, and while Su Changqing fought it, find an opportunity to escape.
As long as she could escape back to Tai Xuan Sect, Su Changqing wouldn't dare to do anything to her.
At this point, she could only gamble.
Li Xiaoxue got up, trembling, and headed towards the cold pond where the Heavenly Ice Python was located.
The cold pond was clear to the bottom. She stood by the edge, looking at the pond water, her body trembling.
Although she had made up her mind to escape later, facing a third-tier Peak Yao Beast, not being afraid was absolutely false.
She turned her head to glance at Su Changqing's cold eyes, then no longer hesitated and quickly swung a sword towards the cold pond.
Sword Qi surged, and the cold pond instantly stirred up monstrous waves.
Immediately after, there was no movement.
Li Xiaoxue looked curious.
What's going on?
Could it be that the Heavenly Ice Python wasn't in the cold pond?
Just as she leaned over to look, a huge body swiftly attacked from within the cold pond.
"Boom!"
Li Xiaoxue's eyes suddenly widened.
Fear!
Endless fear.
The massive body was dozens of meters long, covering the sky and sun. Its white body and eyes, larger than a palm, gleamed with a cold light, and its bloody snake tongue flickered constantly.
"Run!"
When this thought arose, Li Xiaoxue's body seemed to be frozen, and the endless fear in her heart made her unable to move.
"Bang!"
The Heavenly Ice Python didn't hesitate, directly opening its bloody maw and swallowing Li Xiaoxue.
"No... no!!"
Endless unwillingness came out of Li Xiaoxue's mouth.
However, none of this was useful; Su Changqing naturally couldn't save her.
"A third-tier Peak Yao Beast, a bit interesting. I wonder if my current strength can kill it."
Su Changqing's eyes flickered with strong Battle Intent.
This third-tier Peak Heavenly Ice Python was extremely powerful, only one step away from being able to Breakthrough to the fourth tier.
Seemingly having discovered Su Changqing, the Heavenly Ice Python swiftly attacked in his direction.
Su Changqing sneered, not dodging, and the Heavenly Cloud Sword in his hand was unsheathed.
"Purple Extreme Divine Pupil, open!"
"Dragon Swimming Step!"
"Intercepting Heaven Nine Swords, Second Sword!"
As soon as he made a move, Su Changqing went all out.
He naturally knew the principle that even a lion uses its full strength to fight a rabbit.
The moment the Purple Extreme Immortal Eyes opened, the Heavenly Ice Python's speed slowed down tenfold in his eyes; everything seemed clearly visible.
"Rumble!"
Terrifying Sword Qi went straight for the Heavenly Ice Python's body, and countless Sword Qi landed on it.
"Hiss!"
The Heavenly Ice Python was directly repelled by Su Changqing's attack, its body constantly retreating. It flickered its snake tongue, seemingly having also sensed the terrifying strength of the human in front of it, and a desire to retreat arose.
"Want to escape?"
Su Changqing naturally saw through its thoughts at a glance, and a cold smile involuntarily appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Want to run away?
No way!
Su Changqing's figure instantly burst forth. The moment Dragon Swimming Step was unleashed, his entire figure became extremely fast, so fast that even the Heavenly Ice Python couldn't see him clearly.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Several consecutive swords landed on the Heavenly Ice Python's body, directly severely wounding it, and countless streams of blood flowed.
The Heavenly Ice Python hissed, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of Su Changqing's mouth.
"Go to hell."
"Bang!"
A terrifying Sword Qi swept past, landing directly on the Heavenly Ice Python's head, instantly splitting its corpses in two.
It died.
It couldn't be more dead.
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Su Changqing's face. He walked to the Heavenly Ice Python's body and cut open its body with a sword.
Li Xiaoxue, who had just been swallowed, hadn't been fully digested, with only half of her body remaining.
Su Changqing, with a hint of disgust, then took out the Heavenly Ice Python's inner core.
This thing was a great tonic.
Especially for an Alchemist, it was a treasure for refining some Medicinal Pills, extremely valuable.
After putting the Heavenly Ice Python's inner core into his spatial ring, the System's voice sounded in his ear.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the choice, you have obtained any top-tier Sword Intent. Do you wish to draw?"
Top-tier Sword Intent?
Su Changqing's face showed some surprise.
Martial Artists, when Cultivating to the extreme, can comprehend Sword Intent, Saber Intent, Spear Intent, etc...
This was extremely important for Martial Artists; once a "Concept" was comprehended, the boost to strength would definitely be terrifying.
Even the most rubbish "Concept" was not something ordinary Martial Artists could comprehend, and even those Prodigy Martial Artists found it difficult to comprehend.
As for those top-tier "Concepts," throughout history, how many Martial Artists have found it difficult to comprehend them?
"Draw!"
Su Changqing didn't hesitate at all and immediately began to draw.
"A single sword's cold light illuminates the nine provinces. Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Cold Ice Sword Intent (Top-tier)."
In an instant, Su Changqing felt as if his entire body was being infused, a clear, frosty aura emanating from him, his entire body filled with a chilling aura.
He had a thought.
A single sword's cold light illuminates the nine provinces.
He swung a sword.
"Boom."
In an instant, the entire cold pond was instantly covered in ice, and in the thousands of meters deep cold pond, dozens of meters of ice had formed.
A terrifyingly cold aura flickered around.
"Hiss."
"Is this top-tier Sword Intent? It's truly terrifying."
Looking at the strike he casually swung, Su Changqing's face showed a hint of shock.
The power of Sword Intent truly exceeded his imagination.
With this one sword, even that third-tier Peak Heavenly Ice Python from before probably couldn't withstand it.
If he were to face that Heavenly Ice Python again now, Su Changqing was confident he could kill it within two moves.
"With Cold Ice Sword Intent, my strength has increased by at least several times. Although I haven't fought against Nascent Divinity Realm Martial Artists, I imagine it should be similar."
Su Changqing secretly estimated his own strength.
Although he was only at the Mortal Shedding Realm Peak, his true strength could already rival Nascent Divinity Realm Martial Artists.
Thinking of this, Su Changqing's mood improved greatly.
"It's time to go back. My dear Revered Master probably misses me."
A smile appeared at the corner of Su Changqing's mouth.
The thought of his Revered Master being alone and helpless in the cave made Su Changqing's heart ache from the inside out.
Tsk, tsk, tsk.
However, before returning, Su Changqing first dealt with the corpses of Li Yunsheng and the other three. Destroying corpses and leaving no trace was something he was very familiar with.
After dealing with the four people's corpses, he took the Heavenly Ice Python's inner core and headed back towards the Sect.
