Watching the Crouching Rabbit Sword dissipate with the wind, leaving not even the hilt behind, Xue Jing gently closed his eyes, his body freefalling through the air, plummeting toward the earth.
The moment he was reborn, Xue Jing suddenly understood the meaning of the Crouching Rabbit Sword.
It wanted—to sacrifice itself.
To transform from a tangible, perishable blade into an intangible, immortal Sword Intent.
Xue Jing understood its wish and respected it, transforming its tangible form into one of his Heavenly Saber's mystic arts—Cherry Full Moon.
The name 'Crouching Rabbit' originally signified the sinking moon in the west.
But ultimately, it defied the fate embedded in its name, becoming an eternal, ever-present mystic art in Xue Jing's hands, never sinking like the full moon.
This was the first Mystic Art Level martial arts technique that Xue Jing had learned.
