The ultimate Valkyrie has fallen for me

"Wild Grass Sword Intent! Die!"

They fought from day to night, and as the wound continued to tear and widen, the 'white line' marking the weakness became clearer and clearer.

Lu Yuan leaped into the air, let out a roar, and slashed down with his sword once more.

The Ye family swordsmanship involves first practicing sword moves, then sword stances, and finally delving into the essence of the sword.

With the aid of a mysterious tattoo, Lu Yuan has fully grasped everything from sword techniques to sword intent; all he needs to do is practice continuously.

Although it is only so-called "muscle memory", it still takes a lot of time to truly master it, as was the case when Lu Yuan practiced the Earth-Splitting Blade Technique.

Having mastered the Earth-Splitting Blade Technique, and even further developed techniques like Sky-Splitting and Sky-Burning, Lu Yuan's mastery of blade techniques had reached a level of consummate skill.

As the saying goes, different paths lead to the same destination. For true masters, there is no need to be bound by the specific form of weapons; a knife can be a sword, and a sword can be a knife.

Although the techniques of the saber and the sword are different, one can learn from others' experiences to improve oneself. By mastering the techniques of the saber, learning the techniques of the sword will be much more efficient.

The battle with the giant elephant not only damaged it, but also honed Lu Yuan's swordsmanship.

Under immense pressure, his swordsmanship has reached a certain level, and he can now focus on cultivating sword intent!

Lu Yuan's sword strike employed the Wild Grass Sword Intent of the Ye family.

Of course, as a beginner, one is still far from true sword intent, and may not even reach the level of Ye Honglan's half-step sword intent.

If I had to put it in perspective, I've only just scratched the surface.

But even so, it was completely different from the swordplay just now.

Swish!

The sword flashed, as if it would cleave the night sky in two.

Click!

With a piercing sound, the giant elephant's thick spine was completely severed by the strike.

*Sizzle!*

Then, with its unstoppable force, it tore apart the internal organs and muscles inside with overwhelming force.

The enormous body of the giant elephant, as big as a small mountain, was almost cleaved in half with just one sword strike!

Aww~!

In pain, the giant elephant tilted its head back and let out a painful roar.

He stumbled, struggling to regain his balance.

However, its body was too heavy, its spine was severed, and the muscles in its back were cut in half, making it unable to exert force and lose its balance.

Boom!

With a deafening roar, like a real landslide, the giant elephant crashed to the ground.

With its massive size, it would be difficult for it to stand up on its own once it falls, let alone with its spine and muscles severed.

He tried to struggle a few times, but instead of getting up, he aggravated his wounds, and blood gushed out like a river.

Whoosh!

Immediately afterwards, the unsupported internal organs were flushed out, mixed with blood.

With its internal organs scattered and compressed against each other, coupled with excessive blood loss, the giant elephant's life was rapidly slipping away.

After only a few moments, the giant elephant stopped struggling and remained motionless.

"Dead..."

Looking at the giant elephant lying in a pool of blood, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel a sense of disorientation.

He killed a king-level monster?

Yes, he killed a king-level monster!

King-level monsters are comparable to Grandmasters, but unlike Grandmasters, monsters do not have domains. Instead, they simply strengthen their physique and push a certain attribute to its limit.

This giant elephant grew to its maximum size, thus possessing both immense strength and defense.

However, as the saying goes, "a jack of all trades, master of none," and having both aspects meant that it didn't reach the true pinnacle in either area.

Therefore, among the king-level monsters, this giant elephant is actually at the bottom.

After Lu Yuan advanced to the level of an eight-star warrior, although he no longer possessed a domain, his true strength was already comparable to that of a grandmaster.

Moreover, his strength lies in his physique and true qi. In fact, although he is a martial artist, his strength is closer to that of a king-level demon beast!

Only then did they gain the right to fight this giant elephant.

With the addition of the ability to see the 'white line' and the sword intent of the wild grass, they were finally able to slay the giant elephant bit by bit.

"Phew!"

Coming to his senses, Lu Yuan couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

Killing this king-level giant elephant should relieve a lot of pressure on the base.

"Um?"

Just as he thought of this, Lu Yuan's eyes widened suddenly.

The next moment, his body flew out. Looking down, he saw a hole the size of a washbasin in his chest and abdomen, and almost half of his body was gone.

Bang~!

As he landed on the ground, dust billowed up. When Lu Yuan looked up again, he saw a white tiger standing in mid-air.

It appeared.

The nerves that had just relaxed slightly tightened up again in an instant, and a hundred times tighter than before!

This is a god-level monster that can instantly kill a grandmaster.

In fact, if the white tiger had aimed at his head, he would already be dead.

Although the Golden Bridge of Heaven and Earth can draw in spiritual energy for self-healing, it cannot bring the dead back to life; at least Lu Yuan has never tried it.

Given Lu Yuan's current physical strength, even if his heart is destroyed, he will not die in a short time. In other words, only his head remains as a vital organ.

"Hurry up!"

Of course, while he survived, this severe injury rendered him instantly unable to fight.

Lu Yuan was anxious, while the Golden Bridge of Heaven and Earth was frantically absorbing spiritual energy, and his wounds were healing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Fortunately, the white tiger did not immediately launch an attack on him.

Standing in mid-air, looking down at the giant elephant's corpse on the ground, his majestic gaze was devoid of any emotion.

roar~

The next moment, the white tiger let out a low roar.

Immediately afterwards, the surrounding monsters pounced on the giant elephant's corpse, tearing and devouring it with all their might.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but frown slightly.

Watching the giant elephant being slain by him, and now letting other demonic beasts devour its corpse, this white tiger is truly ruthless.

The higher the level of a monster, the higher its intelligence. With the White Tiger's level, its intelligence is in no way inferior to that of a human.

Therefore, it is not the nature of the monster, but simply its temperament.

"Phew!"

Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and stood up from the ground. Fortunately, this gave him time to recover from his injuries.

Now that they have fully recovered, they at least have a sliver of hope to fight back.

The next moment, Lu Yuan's expression turned serious. He condensed a giant sun and threw it out.

It wasn't aimed at the white tiger, but at the corpse of the giant elephant.

At this moment, the giant elephant's corpse was covered with all kinds of demonic beasts. With a loud bang, they were all turned to ashes in the explosion of flames!

With just this one move, tens of thousands of demonic beasts were wiped out!

Lu Yuan grinned, which reduced some of the pressure on the base.

This action caught the attention of the white tiger, who turned to look at him, his amber pupils still devoid of any emotion.

"The Sword Intent of Wild Grass!"

Lu Yuan's expression was solemn. Without the slightest hesitation, he slashed at the target with his sword.

He was no match for this white tiger. Even without being hit by it just now, Lu Yuan knew this perfectly well. But he came here specifically to kill this white tiger!

If this white tiger is not eliminated, the base will be lost, and none of the people in the base will survive.

Knowing there are tigers in the mountains, yet venturing into the tiger's den; knowing it's impossible, yet doing it anyway!

Swish~!

The sword light pierced the night sky, eventually dissipating into the vast darkness.

They failed to kill the White Tiger.

Even with spatial detection, Lu Yuan couldn't see how the white tiger moved or dodged at all.

The next moment, the white tiger appeared in front of him and swung its claw out again.

Lu Yuan's eyes widened, and he almost instinctively raised his sword to block.

Pfft!

With a muffled thud, his body was smashed to pieces again.
