The speed of the flying sword was very fast, so it did not take too long to cover a distance of three thousand miles.
But Lu Qingshan was not in a hurry. His pace was steady and unhurried, and he returned to his mansion first.
Soon, a message came out.
"Ling Wu, is it? You want to use me as a sparring partner?
Haha … it's hard to say who will be the sparring partner.
It's just that I'm a little tired from the journey today. I'll fight you tomorrow. "
As soon as these words came out, everyone knew that "Qing Ge" had returned, and a battle between Heaven's prides was about to begin.
.....
Mingyue Mansion.
"Miss, the son-in-law is back." A female devil maid, who had a pair of strange horns on her head, hurriedly walked in and reported to the tall and slim Ying Mingyue.
Ying Mingyue's expression was indifferent, and she answered very calmly, "Oh."
She seemed unperturbed, but only she knew what she was thinking.
She had already determined that the Great Flame Demon Lord was her enemy who killed her mother, and could not wait to get rid of him.
And after seeing Lu Qingshan's amazing performance in the past two days, she already had some expectations in her heart — — with the ability he showed, perhaps it was really possible for him to take the position of the Realm Lord, and then fulfill his promise to help her take revenge?
As a result, only a day later, she learned that Qing Ge and Ying Jun had left the city together.
Of course, Ying Mingyue knew what Ying Jun was planning.
However, when she learned this news, she had already tacitly agreed that Qing Ge would abandon his alliance with her and join forces with the Great Flame Demon Lord.
After all, compared to a mixed-blood and a concubine's daughter, the Great Flame Demon Lord could obviously give her more.
Although Ying Mingyue's thoughts were not particularly deep, she was not stupid.
She was not naive enough to think that "Qing Ge" would stick to something, and in the face of great temptation, still insist on the fragile agreement between them.
She lowered her eyelids, not knowing what she was thinking, but her palms were clenched together.
"Great Flame Demon Lord …" Ying Mingyue gnashed her teeth, hatred rising in her heart.
"The son-in-law came back alone." The maidservant didn't know too much inside information, but she knew that her mistress didn't get along well with Great Flame Demon Master. She definitely didn't want to see her mistress getting too close to Great Flame Demon Master's people.
"Ah … You said he came back alone?" Ying Mingyue suddenly raised her head and asked in astonishment.
"Yes, everyone saw it with their own eyes. It can't be wrong." The maid nodded affirmatively.
"Could it be that Qing Ge didn't choose to cooperate with Grand-Blaze Demon Master … or is Ying Jun delayed by something?" Ying Mingyue couldn't determine the specific situation, but a trace of hope appeared in her heart.
…
Honglie Demon Lord's residence.
"Hmm? Qing Ge went back to the city alone. Jun'er didn't come back with him? "
Grandblaze Demon Master put down the black jade in his hand and looked at his subordinate who came to report the situation. He fell into deep thought.
"Could it be that something unexpected happened?"
If Qing Ge had agreed to their conditions as he expected, then Qing Ge and Ying Jun should have returned to the city together. Why would they suddenly part ways?
"He rejected our conditions?" Grandblaze Demon Master frowned and guessed.
But soon after, he felt that it wasn't very likely. He shook his head and muttered to himself, "Let's wait for Jun'er to come back and see what he has to say."
.....
The first thing Lu Qingshan did when he returned to Jianluo Royal City was to accept the challenge from the pure-blooded prodigy of Spirit King Manor, Ling Wu, to ensure that everyone knew when he would return.
Then, he waited in the manor for about four hours. Suddenly, he opened his eyes.
"It's about time."
Such a long time was enough for him to be safe.
He slowly got up and left the manor, leaving the city.
Just as he was a short distance away from Jianluo Royal City, a dark blue sword light shot up from the ground.
It was the River of Forgetfulness that had been waiting here for a long time.
On the body of the Forgetting River Sword, there was a simple and unadorned black ring and a bright yellow talisman.
It was Ying Jun's mustard seed and Xia Daoyun's sword talisman.
"He actually used two sword talismans? This Ying Jun does have some skill. "
Lu Qingshan's heart stirred. He took the two items and sent his spiritual sense into Ying Jun's mustard seed.
Ten neatly arranged jade boxes entered his eyes.
Sure enough, the Blood Spirit Crystals Ying Jun took out weren't all of his stock.
There were actually ten Blood Spirit Crystals in his mustard seed!
"It's definitely enough this time," he murmured, extremely happy.
Lu Qingshan suppressed the surging emotions in his heart. A hint of vigilance flashed through his eyes.
He didn't dare to get carried away. He quickly took out the jade boxes with the Blood Spirit Crystals in Ying Jun's mustard seed, as well as other materials like metals and minerals, and moved them into his own mustard seed.
As for the other items that clearly belonged to Ying Jun, including many precious items, he didn't even touch them, let alone keep them.
In the end, with a thought, he flicked Ying Jun's mustard seed. It turned into a streak of light and flew out. It landed in the wilderness and sank three inches into the ground.
After all, the mustard seed contained most of a Demon Commander's assets. Throwing it away like this was indeed a bit wasteful.
However, Lu Qingshan didn't feel that it was too much of a pity.
He didn't understand the Demons' methods too well, so he couldn't be sure that there wouldn't be something like an imprint on those items.
If there were, it would bring him endless trouble and disaster.
And if he wanted to avoid these disasters, the most important thing was to not be greedy.
He was already quite satisfied with obtaining these Blood Spirit Crystals.
At this moment, the River of Forgetfulness had already entered Lu Qingshan's body.
"Lu Qingshan, this guy is quite formidable. Fortunately, I, Gu Yiyi, am quick-witted and brave." Gu Yiyi's voice sounded in his mind.
Gu Yiyi was eagerly asking for credit.
"Ying Jun is indeed quite powerful. I actually had to use two sword talismans to take him down." Lu Qingshan nodded in agreement. He put away the remaining sword talisman.
Xia Daoyun had given him a total of ten sword talismans. Now that he had used two, he still had eight left.
"After using the first sword talisman, he was still alive and kicking. Fortunately, I was brave and resourceful. I hurriedly used the second sword talisman, and only then did I successfully complete the mission!" Gu Yiyi emphasized again.
"Mm, I understand." Lu Qingshan chuckled.
If one sword talisman didn't kill him, then he would use another one.
He really was both 'brave and resourceful' …
"Lu Qingshan!" Gu Yiyi was angry.
"I still have eight sword talismans." Lu Qingshan's meaning was clear.
Gu Yiyi was no longer angry. She patted her chest and said loudly, "No problem. If there are such things in the future, just leave them to me!"
.....
After obtaining the items, Lu Qingshan returned to Jianluo Imperial City.
The cultivation room in the residence was isolated from all auras and sounds.
Piles and piles of rare treasures were piled up in the room, shining with all kinds of lights.
These were all materials that were extremely suitable for forging Demonic Weapons. Ying Jun had collected them to improve the quality of his Demonic Weapon.
Now, it was all for him.
Lu Qingshan had a thought.
"Buzz!"
The jade-green peach blossom rushed out of his body excitedly. The sword shook slightly in the air.
It had already smelled the aroma and was ready. It was just waiting for Lu Qingshan to call for it!
The peach blossom floated above these rare treasures. The sword shone with a misty luster.
Looking at the sumptuous' Manchu Han Imperial Feast ', the peach blossom's excitement was indescribable. It continuously conveyed its joy to Lu Qingshan in its mind.
Lu Qingshan smiled.
A sword cultivator and his Natal Sword were one. They were bound together for good or ill.
The two had deep feelings for each other. They were very close and influenced each other.
Seeing the peach blossom so happy, he instinctively felt a trace of joy.
"Finish it for me." Lu Qingshan reminded Peach Blossom as if he was a parent instructing his child.
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! "
"Who are you looking down on?" The peach blossom had a proud attitude.
It had always been frugal and not wasteful. It was not picky about food.
In terms of 'eating', it was not inferior to a human … sword!
"Go." Lu Qingshan let go of the peach blossom's restraint.
With a clear sword hum, the peach blossom sword glowed. It suddenly shot out and wandered among the rare treasures.
"You only know how to eat. You're not like me, Gu Yiyi, who is quick-witted, brave, and capable." Gu Yiyi snorted disdainfully when she saw the peach blossom frantically extracting the spiritual essence.
Gu Yiyi, who felt that she had done something big, now felt a strong sense of superiority.
The peach blossom's' appetite 'was astonishing. It was also very efficient. It swallowed very quickly.
The light spots in the spiritual materials kept flowing out and fusing into its sword.
Half an hour later, all the treasures that filled the room had turned into dregs.
The peach blossom also stopped its swallowing.
"Buzz!"
"Nothing is left!" The peach blossom was also asking for credit.
At the same time, an inexplicable message entered Lu Qingshan's mind.
'Half?'
He murmured.
After swallowing so many spiritual materials, the peach blossom's progress to become a Pseudo Dao Tool had increased by about half.
It still had a long way to go.
There was still a long way to go before the peach blossom could become a Pseudo Dao Tool.
Once the peach blossom became a Pseudo Dao Tool, there would be a qualitative change.
He now had three Natal Swords. The Dragon Sparrow was not mentioned.
Although the River of Forgetfulness was a Dao Tool, because it had lost its divine power, it was only left with the character of a Dao Tool.
It was also known as a 'fake'.
Therefore, if the peach blossom could become a Pseudo Dao Tool, it would undoubtedly become the most powerful existence among his Natal Swords.
The improvement of his Natal Swords would be more obvious in the future.
Although Lu Qingshan was looking forward to it, he was not in a hurry.
He put away the peach blossom and took out the jade box.
The peach blossom had already swallowed all the minerals and spiritual materials taken from Ying Jun's mustard seed.
It had truly eaten everything and left nothing behind.
Only the Blood Spirit Crystals were left for Ying Jun.
Lu Qingshan looked at the ten magnificent and dreamy Blood Spirit Crystals in front of him and felt joy in his heart.
"Let's begin," he murmured in his heart.
"Is it starting again?" Gu Yiyi could not help but mumble softly when she saw this.
She was in terrible pain.
Although it was Lu Qingshan who was absorbing the Blood Spirit Crystals and it was Lu Qingshan who was also feeling the pain, she was still scared just by looking at it.
On the other side, Lu Qingshan had already carefully stuffed a Blood Spirit Crystal into his mouth.
Even now, he still had some lingering fear from the terrible pain he had experienced last time.
…
The Blood Spirit Crystal melted as soon as it entered his mouth, and an invisible force quickly entered his body.
Boom!
In an instant, his blood began to surge.
The blood strands of energy in the Blood Spirit Crystal began to merge with his blood and then flowed through his body.
Under the influence of this force, the tiniest molecules in his body began to undergo some special changes. They were undergoing metamorphosis and sublimation.
At the same time, waves of pain continued to spread throughout his body.
It was pain and pleasure.
Lu Qingshan was very familiar with this feeling and had adapted to it.
After a while, the absorption of the first Blood Spirit Crystal was completed.
"It's not enough. Continue." Lu Qingshan observed every detail in his body and made a judgment.
There were changes, but not to the extent of a qualitative change.
He swallowed another Blood Spirit Crystal.
The hidden force in his blood was being stimulated, waiting for the moment to be released.
His blood began to heat up, and the barrier was being attacked.
Lu Qingshan's eyes were cold. He ignored the pain as if it was nothing and kept his consciousness clear.
However, small beads of sweat kept flowing out of his forehead.
Obviously, he was not as relaxed as he looked.
After a while, the power of the second Blood Spirit Crystal had completely merged with his blood and was absorbed by him.
"Another part of the shackles have been opened." Lu Qingshan felt his own state again, and his eyes flashed with excitement.
If he wanted to, he could continue to improve his strength.
"I'll do it in one go and completely open the shackles," Lu Qingshan thought to himself with strong determination.
He stuffed the third Blood Spirit Crystal into his mouth.
Another absorption process began.
The Blood Spirit Crystal's function was too heaven-defying.
"How are these Blood Spirit Crystals produced? It would be even better if I could get more and bring them back … "Lu Qingshan thought to himself as he absorbed the power of the Blood Spirit Crystal.
Although the Blood Spirit Crystal could not directly increase a human cultivator's strength, it could unleash their potential.
For most humans, it probably didn't have much use. For example, the Nine Flower Realm was a realm that most cultivators couldn't reach. Even if they unlocked the shackles of the Ten Flower Realm, what was the point to them?
However, for a small number of human geniuses who pursued the limit, it was definitely an invaluable treasure.
At the very least, it would be of great help to Xia Daoyun.
"This thing should be quite beneficial to Master as well. If possible, I'll think of a way to get some more Blood Spirit Crystals and bring them back for Master." He made his decision.
The absorption of the third Blood Spirit Crystal continued …
This time, the changes in his body were not as obvious as before.
However, Lu Qingshan was not disappointed. Instead, he was even more delighted.
This meant that he was about to reach the final bottleneck, and was getting closer and closer to breaking through!
"Continue."
The fourth Blood Spirit Crystal!
The changes brought by this Blood Spirit Crystal were even smaller.
If not for the fact that he had the Introspective Convalescence Technique that allowed him to see through his body, he definitely would not have been able to detect these minute changes.
The fifth Blood Spirit Crystal!
"Fortunately, Ying Jun had enough Blood Spirit Crystals in his mustard seed. Otherwise, I would not have been able to break through this time."
Lu Qingshan could sense that this Blood Spirit Crystal did not bring any changes to him.
This was not because the Blood Spirit Crystal had lost its effect. Instead, it was because he had begun to truly touch that final barrier.
The power of a single Blood Spirit Crystal was not enough to break through that barrier, so it seemed to be completely useless.
Now, in addition to the four Blood Spirit Crystals he had absorbed earlier, he had absorbed a total of nine Blood Spirit Crystals.
He had an intuition that the next Blood Spirit Crystal would allow him to complete the final breakthrough.
"It seems that the number of Blood Spirit Crystals needed to unlock the shackles of a human's bloodline should be ten," Lu Qingshan guessed.
"Finally, this moment has come."
Lu Qingshan whispered to himself, "Then let's do it."
He could foresee that the pain brought by this final breakthrough would definitely be extremely terrifying.
"Swish!"
He stuffed another Blood Spirit Crystal into his mouth.
The power in the crystal thread began to erupt.
"Boom!"
Without any buffer time, a loud bang exploded in Lu Qingshan's body.
This time, Lu Qingshan fell to the ground in so much pain that he could not stand up.
He could not help but clench his fists. His sharp nails pierced into his skin. At the same time, he kept pounding his fists on the ground to relieve the pain.
"This is … This is …!" Lu Qingshan gritted his teeth. He was in so much pain that he could not help but groan loudly.
His body was twisting and convulsing. His spine was arched like a shrimp.
It was too painful!
Although he had expected that the final breakthrough would be terrifying, this kind of pain was still beyond his expectations.
It was even beyond all the levels he could imagine.
The pain was even more terrifying than someone stirring his head with an iron rod.
Beads of sweat rolled down from his forehead and back.
At the same time, drops of dark blood seeped out of his skin and flowed down together with the sweat.
This was his bloodline evolving to expel the impurities in his blood.
A puddle of water had appeared on the ground. There was cold sweat and blood.
At the same time that Lu Qingshan was feeling incomparable pain, the tiny molecules in his blood were turning into a faint gold color, looking extremely noble.
A mysterious power appeared in his body.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
Sizzle! Something invisible seemed to be melting in the depths of his body.
Finally, the pale gold turned into pure gold.
The sizzling sound disappeared. The pain also gradually faded.
Lu Qingshan let out a long breath.
He had finished absorbing the power of the tenth Blood Spirit Crystal.
At this moment, his face was pale. Blood seeped out of his lips.
It was caused by him biting his lips unconsciously while in pain.
"I knew that bloodline evolution would bring about a huge change. Who would have thought that it would be so painful?" He was still in shock.
Then, he looked at his body.
It could be seen that the molecular structure of his blood was completely different from before. The most fundamental thing had changed.
His eyes were filled with gold. There was a mysterious power spreading.
Lu Qingshan felt unprecedentedly relaxed.
It was as if he had been carrying something heavy on his back before. Now, this thing had been abandoned.
He was sure that the shackles in his bloodline had been broken. They had been removed!
It was finally over.
Lu Qingshan sighed.
Even with his tenacity, he didn't want to endure such pain again.
"The unprecedented Ten Flower Realm …" Lu Qingshan looked at the panel.
The "Da Xia Kingdom Sutra" on the cultivation method column had lit up again.
"The current me can already fight against high-level Devil Generals. If I really break through to the Ten Flower Realm, how powerful will I be …"
"Also, if I can enter the Ten Flower Realm, my Primordial Spirit Realm will also smoothly break through to the Soul Realm." Lu Qingshan was looking forward to it.
The Primordial Spirit of the Soul Realm would bring about an increase in a cultivator's combat strength.
And the Primordial Spirit of this realm was usually only achievable by Realm Seven cultivators and a few top Realm Six cultivators.
One had to know that he was only at Realm Five.
This was the huge impact and benefit that he had gained from comprehending the four True Meanings of Origins in the Nascent Soul Realm.
The True Meanings of Origins' tempering and improving effects on the Primordial Spirit were too powerful.
With that thought in mind, Lu Qingshan had already poured his experience points into the "Da Xia Kingdom Sutra".
