<h4>Chapter 3793: Jadescale Poison Whip</h4>


    The third prince truly didn’t hold back since his life was on the line today.


    If he were to lose and somehow survive, he would have no ce in Vajra anyway after disobeying an imperial decree. Thus, victory was the only option. His other cards coulde into y afterward.


    “nk! nk! nk!” Pieces of green jade began toe together to form a whip.


    Once it fully assembled, it looked like a green snake with its head raised and an osciting tongue flick.


    The individual scale-like sections were sharp. It didn’t need a direct hit, just a slight brush would result in serious damage.


    However, the most terrifying thing about this weapon was neither its cold glow nor its sharpness. A murderous energy was present, resembling a suffocating draconic aura. It seemed rather evil and potent; any contact would result in a withering effect.


    As the third prince wielded it, the spectators felt as if a green-scaled poisonous dragon had possessed him.


    “Jadescale Poison Whip!” An expert became startled after seeing the weapon.


    Others didn’t know about this whip but agreed with the naming choice, at least from its appearance.


    “This is the legendary heirloom of the Zhou, right?” One expert found this astonishing.


    “Why does the third prince have it?!” Another blurted out.


    The Zhou was an influential n in Vajra and had generations of officials. Of course, their status was far inferiorpared to the Li or Zhang.


    This whip was their heirloom, the strongest weapon left behind by an ancestor. It has been worshipped by the descendants and only used when absolutely necessary.


    That’s why people were surprised to see the third prince with it. Nheless, the older experts with knowledge of the court reacted quickly and came up with a reason right away.


    The Zhou certainly had a special rtionship with the third prince, clearly wanting to support him in his effort for the throne. In the case of sess, they might be the next Li or Zhang.


    “A prince needing to use someone else’s heirloom...” A youth murmured.


    “He’s not the crown prince and there are plenty of princes.” An older expert responded.


    The young ones understood after hearing this. Though the third prince had plenty of notable contributions, he was still only a prince, not the sessor. He naturally didn’t have ess to the strongest weapons or heirlooms of Vajra.


    If the royal n were to give him these weapons, it would be improper due to the existence of the crown prince. They would be admitting wanting to rece him.


    That’s where the Zhou came in - giving him exactly what he needed.


    “Boom!” Hu Ben also released a torrent of vitality that virtually flip the sky over.


    It contained plenty of grand dao power, piercing through the world. Halos manifested and filled the area.


    “Grand Dao Sacred Physique!” His cultivation realm became apparent to the crowd.


    “The young will surpass us in no time.” An older big shot became sentimental.


    Hu Ben was so young yet he was already at the sacred level. Though he might not be a dao lord in the future, he would still be a mighty Heavenly Sovereign.


    “Buzz.” His vitality and halos suddenly became infected by a golden shade. His body was engulfed in a goldenyer with a hint of blue and bronze.


    His battle intent surged, causing him to resemble a war god. His eyes shed brightly, seemingly able to open a new world.


    “Archaic Sun Battle Art! A supreme technique from the founder of Vajra, even before Vajra Dao Lord.” One ancestor became startled.


    The founding king of Vajra was an incredible Heavenly Sovereign who left behind this famous art.


    For a long period of time, it served as the strongest meritw of Vajra and the ultimate treasure of Martial Hall.


    Later on, Vajra managed to build a rtionship with Vajra Dao Lord through ample efforts. The dao lord then bestowed them various meritws. From then on, Archaic Sun Battle Art was no longer their best meritw.


    Nheless, this didn’t mean that it was weak. Numerous disciples and royal members wished they could learn it.


    For example, the third prince didn’t have ess to it while Hu Ben did. This was quite surprising.


    “No wonder why people say that Hu Ben might be the next guardian of Vajra.” An important character said softly: “Or that he’s the current guardian’s disciple. There is no smoke without fire.”


    “So Hu Ben was holding back.” Others exchanged nces.


    Everyone assumed that Hu Ben had gone all out against the scion. This didn’t seem to be the case. He clearly had thoughts about escaping then. In that case, how would he answer to the soldiers from Vigorous Tiger Legion who died in battle? Was the fight just for show?


    Thus, the crowd didn’t wish to dwell on this topic due to how sensitive it was.


    “Buzz.” Phantom’s eruption of power wasn’t as shy as the previous two.


    It consisted of a strand of blood shooting upward. However, it disappeared right away, reced by a violet aura. This aura permeated the air and Phantom disappeared.


    “Where is he?” A youth wondered.


    “Over there!” A keen-eyed spectator noticed a faint shadow but it disappeared once more.


    “No, there!” Another one shouted. The shadow continuously appeared and disappeared within the aura.


    Two scenarios seemed usible here - either that he was moving continuously or that he was omnipresent without changing position.


    “Phantom Skyshift!” Someone recognized this technique.
