On the mountain path, there were dozens of figures moving forward quickly, stirring up dust and smoke.
"Hurry up, or we won't be able to make it!" Old Man Gu's voice rang out in the forest.
These dozens of figures were the Gu Family's convoy.
Knowing that Lu Qingshan was going to charge into Black Wind alone, the Gu Family's convoy immediately reached a consensus after a short discussion.
They were going to rescue Lu Qingshan!
"Since he saved our lives, we have to prove to him that our lives are worth saving!"
Just as Old Man Gu was worried that he would be too late and would not be able to make it, he suddenly smelled an extremely strong scent of blood.
The old man, who was experienced in traveling, was shocked.
Could it be?
After crossing a small mountain, Old Man Gu was stunned. Gu Ya was also stunned. Even the Gu Family members who had abandoned their goods were also stunned. Their mouths were wide open.
Not far ahead, the door of the infamous Black Wind Stockade, which had dominated the Land of Despair for a hundred years, was already shattered.
A huge head was nailed to the top of the stockade's door.
It was a bald head, like a huge ball, reflecting light. It had an aquiline nose, and the tip of the nose was about to touch the upper lip.
"This is the head of the Black Wind Stockade's chief!" Old Man Gu exclaimed, recognizing the head's owner at a glance.
The chief of the Black Wind Stockade's appearance was too obvious.
After recovering from his shock, Old Man Gu immediately led the team and rushed into the Black Wind Stockade at the fastest speed possible.
Then, he saw hundreds of corpses lying in the huge Black Wind Stockade. Some belonged to humans, while others belonged to ferocious beasts.
All kinds of weapons were broken. Some were stuck in the ground, while others were stuck in the eaves of the houses.
The weapons stuck in the eaves were deeply embedded in the wood.
Blood splattered everywhere, dyeing the Black Wind Stockade into a Red Wind Stockade.
They did not witness the destruction of the Black Wind Stockade with their own eyes, but just looking at the aftermath, the scene of Lu Qingshan stepping on the black wind seemed to be vivid in front of them.
After a long time, Old Man Gu muttered absentmindedly,
"What a swordsman!"
.....
Twenty days later.
At dusk, Lu Qingshan finally arrived at the border of the Land of Despair.
The strange force field that made him feel oppressed and uncomfortable as well as the flow of his spirit energy had completely disappeared.
"I can do whatever I want in this street." The Western Rat King, who had been bored for a long time, could not help but poke his head out of the Spirit Beast Pouch to take a breather and feel the air of freedom.
"Young Master, are you intentionally indulging yourself in slaughter?" A red and graceful figure appeared beside Lu Qingshan.
Lu Qingshan turned his head, a dim red light flashing in his dark eyes.
Qin Yitian was looking at him with sparkling eyes.
"It wasn't intentional," Lu Qingshan said calmly, "I was just being willful."
"For the True Intent of Destruction?"
"I've always been a greedy person." Lu Qingshan nodded, then shook his head. "Like a snake swallowing an elephant, I do want to do it, but the people of the Blackwind Stockade deserve to die."
He now had four intents, three of which were True Intents of Origin.
The only one that suited him the most was the Slaughter Sword Intent, which he had comprehended the earliest. It was also a superior intent.
He was very ambitious.
Since the Nirvana Penetration Sword Intent had been upgraded to the True Intent of Nirvana, why not try to upgrade the Slaughter Sword Intent as well?
If the Slaughter Sword Intent traced back to its origin, it would be the True Intent of Destruction.
There was no clear way to complete the upgrade. After all, intents had always been mysterious.
However, Lu Qingshan knew that just like how the Slaughter Sword Intent was infused with killing, to upgrade it from killing to destruction, it would not be out of the category of killing.
Qin Yitian nodded and smiled. "I understand."
She would not interfere with Lu Qingshan's choice. She just wanted to confirm Lu Qingshan's condition.
That time in the Demon Spirit Graveyard, the incident of Lu Qingshan accidentally turning into a demon had left her with lingering fear.
Therefore, after seeing that Lu Qingshan seemed to have entered that state again, Qin Yitian hesitated for a long time. In the end, she could not help but show up and show her concern.
After confirming that Lu Qingshan's condition was stable, she returned to her sword.
Other than Lu Qingshan, Qin Yitian had always been lazy and did not want to think too much about other things.
…
Lu Qingshan, who had returned in high spirits, leaped into the air. His figure rose to a height of a thousand feet, and he charged into the clouds on his sword.
He had reached a bottleneck in his cultivation.
There was not much of a problem with his cultivation. With his experience points, he had reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
What was troublesome was the intent.
This was a mystery that could only be explored by cultivators in the long process of cultivation.
The troublesome thing about intents was that they were illusory and intangible.
For example, it was easier for cultivators to improve their fire intent in a fire-type environment.
However, if one thought that one would be able to comprehend fire-type intent just by sitting in a place with blazing flames, one would be mistaken. If it were that simple, intents would have been everywhere long ago.
Some people could even soak themselves in a pool of lava and turn themselves into ashes. They would still end up with nothing.
Therefore, he wanted to use killing to upgrade his Slaughter Sword Intent to the True Meaning of Destruction. It could only be considered a convenient attempt.
As expected, nothing happened.
However, Lu Qingshan firmly believed that if his Slaughter Sword Intent was upgraded to the True Meaning of Destruction one day, it would definitely be due to these seemingly untouched, but in fact, silently accumulating efforts.
The upgrading of intents was not something that could be done in a day.
For example, he had spent a full year in the sealed space to comprehend the True Meaning of Nirvana this time.
Back in the Sheep Tribe, he had single-handedly blocked the Sand Wolf Demon to upgrade his Slaughter Sword Intent to the Perfect Meaning of Destruction. It seemed to have been completed in an instant, but in fact, it was a result of years of accumulation.
…
Lu Qingshan entered the Barbarian Tribe at the end of the fourth year of Tian Yuan. When he came out again, it was already the end of the fifth year of Tian Yuan.
In a year's time, he had gained a lot. However, Lu Qingshan was still brooding over it.
After the "Lord Sacred Beast" of the Demons broke the seal, not only did he not kill him, he even inexplicably sent him from the sealed space that was about to collapse directly to the Land of Dead Spirit in the Middle Sky Region's Western Region.
This was equivalent to saving his life.
The whole thing seemed very strange and illogical.
Thinking of the pair of extremely familiar eyes that the "Lord Sacred Beast" had revealed, Lu Qingshan believed that this matter must have something to do with the green snake in his sea of consciousness that was constantly swimming back and forth on his Primordial Spirit that did not know fatigue.
However, he did not know what the exact relationship was.
This feeling was not very good.
This was the feeling of owing a debt.
There was no free lunch in the world.
His intuition told him that the "Lord Sacred Beast" had saved his life today. In the future, he would come to ask for a favor from him.
