"It's over, all our efforts wasted..."
The Mirror Person within the bracelet despairingly covered their head.
Tears welled up in their eyes as they looked at the boy who was now nothing but a skeleton, sorrowfully saying:
"Xue Jing..."
This youth, who had been so confident that not even the news of facing a Pureblood Dragon Species could waver him but instead carefully arranged his plan for Slaying the Dragon, always seeming to have everything under his control, had t his end like this...
To fall against the powerful Pureblood Dragon Species seed a natural and reasonable outco, yet the Mirror Person found it hard to accept.
"Ao——!!"
The ecstatic dragon's cry echoed through heaven and earth, an unprecedented sense of exhilaration overwhelming the True Dragon.
It never imagined that rely crushing an insect would bring such imnse joy and a sense of accomplishnt.
Under the Full Moon, countless petals fluttered around it; even though it was at the end of its strength, given ti and with its Life Force, it would certainly recover gradually.
When that ti ca, it would slaughter every 'little insect' in the whole world!
"Ao——!!"

What did death feel like? Xue Jing had always been curious about that.
He had the luxury of curiosity.
And now, he finally satisfied that curiosity.
It was like continuously plumting into an endless, pitch-black abyss, unable to see an end or feel anything.
It wasn't such a big deal, he thought to himself.
So-called death was rely a sowhat special state of life.
At least for him, it definitely was so.
With rely a thought, he imdiately stopped in the endless abyss.
Then, a mysterious and powerful force pulled him toward where the 'light' was.
"You——!!"
The Mirror Person, subrged in despair and sorrow, suddenly saw blood and flesh growing on Xue Jing's skeleton, and in the blink of an eye, he regained the appearance of a handso young man.
"Ah? What's this?"
The unexpected situation left them dumbfounded, unable to think.
Xue Jing reopened his eyes, experiencing rebirth for the first ti.
In the panel, the na 'Twin Lifes' turned from pale gold to a dull, lightless black and included an additional line of text.
[Cooldown Ti: 59 days 23 hours 59 minutes 51 seconds]
His body was completely restored, the Life Fire within him burning more vigorously than during his pri.
The experience of death and rebirth ford an elusive insight that wafted around in his heart, almost imperceptible.
Under the night sky, with the Full Moon and cherry blossoms as witnesses, the sight was incomparably beautiful; Xue Jing's gaze beca distant, his pupils slowly suffused with divine, silver-white color.
Shadow Fla burned upon him, turning into a cloak of Dark Fla, covering his naked body.
The Crouching Rabbit Sword in his hand trembled with excitent, as if it was incredibly agitated; the breath coming from it grew more and more urgent.
Xue Jing gently caressed the blade with his hand, and a hint of lancholy surfaced in his detached, silver-divine eyes.
"Goodbye, Crouching Rabbit, you will always be with ."
The Crouching Rabbit Sword answered with a faint buzzing sound, as if expressing joy or reluctance.
Xue Jing slowly lifted his head, looking at the True Dragon whose cry had abruptly stopped, locking eyes with it.
Those dark-golden vertical pupils revealed a trace of fear of the unknown.
Why——?
The True Dragon felt the urge to flee, facing an enemy it could not kill or understand, it was finally afraid.
But its body froze, unable to move.
An invisible yet palpable pressure enveloped it, keeping it completely still.
It was as if the God of the Azure Sky had casually glanced at it and whimsically decided it should die a beautiful death right here.
Heaven's will, like a sabre, cannot be defied.
If heaven wants you dead, you can only wait for death where you stand.
It was as if a scene had been cut from reality; Xue Jing suddenly vanished from the spot and reappeared behind the True Dragon. And along the path between his disappearance and reappearance, a flash of sabre light appeared, lingering for a long ti.
With his back to the True Dragon and the Crouching Rabbit Sword turning into dust, carried away by the wind, Xue Jing softly said against the backdrop of floating cherry blossoms and the vast Full Moon:
"Heavenly Blade Mystique: Cherry Full Moon."
As soon as the words were spoken, the frozen True Dragon's body burst with innurable tiny wounds, each one emitting bursts of Saber Qi that relentlessly harvested the little Life Force left inside it.
In the end, the True Dragon let out one final, mournful cry, and its thoroughly battered body fell into the embrace of the earth.
Even a favored child of the heavens, beloved by the sky, receives only the earth's maternal embrace in death.
