Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

Chapter 595: Encircling and Killing the Single-Horned Silver Python

```

"Bang bang bang!"

Thunderous roars echoed from the sky.

Xue Dong’s long spear turned into a sky full of spear shadows, each thrust powerfully earth-shattering and mountain-collapsing.

Zhao Hanxing spurred three Immortal Swords, morphing into a female Sword Immortal, with Sword Qi piercing gold and shattering stone, a force not to be underestimated.

Yu Wenbai wasn’t weak either, his entire being seemingly transformed into a scorching sun, radiating brilliantly unmatched light, his fists shaking the heavens with power, unleashing the Great Sun Divine Fist Technique like a towering giant.

However, their attacks failed to inflict substantial damage upon the solitary-horned Silver Serpent.

Instead, the colossal power of the Silver Lightning from the solitary-horned Silver Serpent caused the three to retreat step by step.

The only one capable of directly contending with the solitary-horned Silver Serpent was Lan Jing.

Lan Jing’s method of attack was somewhat special; the Cultivation Technique she practiced had the Wood Attribute.

She constantly stimulated her Immortal Elemental, and from the ground and rocks, thick vines emerged.

These vines were incredibly tough, entwining tightly around the solitary-horned Silver Serpent.

Although sometimes shattered by the explosive Heavenly Heart Silver Lightning from the solitary-horned Silver Serpent, they still caused significant trouble to the creature.

Not only that, she also condensed exceedingly sharp Wooden Spears.

The Wooden Spears, like a barrage of arrows, relentlessly bombarded the solitary-horned Silver Serpent.

Of course, to Xu Ping’an, all these methods seemed nothing extraordinary.

What truly made Xu Ping’an wary was that alongside the vines entangling the solitary-horned Silver Serpent and the Wooden Spear attacks, the beast’s vitality was gradually ebbing away.

Although the ebbing was slow and difficult to detect for the ordinary person,

Xu Ping’an still noticed this detail.

"Natural Dao Laws, devouring all vitality, utilizing all vitality," thought Xu Ping’an, recalling what he had read in a book on Dao Laws.

Among them was a record of a Second Grade pinnacle Dao Law.

This must be the Power of Dao Principles that Lan Jing was cultivating.

Named the Natural Dao Law.

Once mastered, it could easily strip others of their vitality.

They were currently in the Mortal Realm, so they could not deploy the Power of Dao Principles.

Bound by universal constraints.

But in the Spirit Realm, this Lan Jing’s Dao Law would be exceptionally terrifying.

"No wonder she ranks thirty-ninth on the genius list, having mastered the Natural Dao Law," Xu Ping’an murmured to himself.

He couldn’t help but hold Lan Jing in higher esteem.

These geniuses’ strengths were limited in the Mortal Realm, but not his own.

At present, he could at best fight them to a draw.

But in the Spirit Realm, they could easily crush him with a single hand.

The gap was still considerably vast.

"I must swiftly enhance my own strength and continue to comprehend the Dao Laws, striving to step into the realm of Dao Laws as soon as possible," Xu Ping’an took a deep breath, setting a goal for himself.

After all, he was about to enter the Spirit Realm, where he would face these unrestricted geniuses.

"Roar roar roar!"

The solitary-horned Silver Serpent, bombarded by the alliance of four, was thoroughly enraged.

Its body was already turning red, and it let out a deafening roar.

"It’s going berserk, once the solitary-horned Silver Serpent goes berserk, its strength will surge dramatically," Li Xuanqing spoke.

"No need to worry, none of them have displayed their true strength," Xue Hu said with a smile, glancing at Xu Ping’an deliberately or unintentionally as he spoke.

Xu Ping’an chose to ignore Xue Hu’s gaze.

Regardless of whether this fellow had discerned his identity, it didn’t matter.

As long as he didn’t disclose Xu Ping’an’s identity, there wouldn’t be an issue.

"Their four strengths are so strong that they’re already this powerful without using the Power of Dao Principles," Qin Yu sighed. "I can’t even imagine how strong their combat power would be if they used the Power of Dao Principles."

"Using the Power of Dao Principles is completely different from not using it," Xue Hu responded. "The application of the Power of Dao Principles can increase the combat power of a Tenth Rank expert by more than a hundred times."

Xu Ping’an didn’t speak, as he knew this too.

The power of the Dao Laws was so great that it couldn’t be made up for with the mere strengthening of True Yuan.

Even a newcomer to the Dao Laws could easily suppress a Ninth Rank Peak expert with the mere gesture of a hand.

Xue Hu said that these four had not used their full strength, and Xu Ping’an could see that too.

None of the four had used their real strength, not even half of it.

It was just unknown whether the transformed Silver Horned Python could force them to use a significant portion of their strength.

"Roar!"

The Silver Horned Python let out a sky-shaking roar, its body suddenly turning an intense red.

Spikes emerged from its body, and its already massive form grew almost double in size.

"Boom!"

The Silver Horned Python whipped its tail against the void.

It actually tore the space apart, unleashing a chillingly powerful force.

Not only that, but the thunder on its body also changed.

The originally Silver Lightning had turned into blood-red thunder.

Its power had increased almost tenfold.

"This is the Floating Red Thunder; now we’re really in trouble," Li Xuanqing frowned as he spoke. "This Silver Horned Python’s strength is now comparable to that of an Eleventh Rank First Layer Realm. Of course, it isn’t as strong as a true Eleventh Rank without the addition of the Power of Dao Principles, but its combat power has already exceeded the limits of a Demi Immortal."

Many Cultivators around them also felt the terror of the python at this moment.

The bloodline of this python seemed complicated, as if some mutation had occurred.

"Indeed, it has grown considerably stronger, almost reaching the combat power of a Tenth Rank First Layer Realm cultivator who can use the Power of Dao Principles," Xue Hu nodded in agreement.

Xu Ping’an didn’t speak, but the python also felt incredibly strong to him.

Surpassing the category of a Demi Immortal and reaching the true combat power of a Tenth Rank First Layer Realm was still terrifying.

"Everyone, attack together, don’t hold back, fight with all your might, and the rest of you join in as well," Lan Jing commanded directly.

The next moment, ten huge wooden arms emerged directly from the ground.

As soon as the giant hands appeared, they tightly gripped the python.

However, the python was not as easy to deal with as before.

Now, the red thunder erupted from its body, instantly shattering all the trees.

"What?" Lan Jing’s eyes revealed a seriousness when she saw this.

The other three also showed surprise and cast their powerful moves.

At this moment, the strength of the four seemed to surge dramatically, and their attack power grew even more formidable.

Immediately, Hidden Dragon Mountain seemed to be falling apart, rocks shattering, and the mountain itself violently shaking.

The sound could be heard from hundreds of miles away.

The surrounding people also began their attacks, and Xu Ping’an naturally joined in.

However, he did not use all his strength and was only going through the motions.

With the attacks of everyone, the Silver Horned Python began to falter.

The state of mania also showed signs of receding.

Xu Ping’an was certain that it wouldn’t be long before the Silver Horned Python would be defeated.

Indeed, as Xue Dong burst forth, thrusting his spear.

The head of the Silver Horned Python was pierced through, letting out a painfully wretched howl.

Ultimately, it fell unwillingly.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
