Yue Ying hid in a hidden rocky cave, clutching a ring in her hand, not daring to move. She had been brought in by the flow of the crowd and was not allowed to resist in the slightest.
As soon as she entered the Valley of the Angry Axe, Yue Ying knew she had to find a place to hide and then not just go out. At the same time she had to pray that no one would find this place, otherwise with her cultivation at the sixth level of Qi gathering, it would be a dead end.
What Yue Ying didn’t expect was that the first thing she saw when she entered the cavern was a dead bone, and in front of it was a ring. The first thing Yue Ying did was to grab the ring in her hand. After all, she had spent time in both Ming Xin Academy and Meteorite Academy, and knew that she was definitely lucky this time, and what she got her hands on was definitely a storage ring.
Two whole days pa*sed, and Yue Ying didn’t dare to look outside at all, apart from looking for some snacks to eat in her storage bag, as the roar of the demonic beasts outside made her feel palpitating and scared.
Only after two days had pa*sed did she dare to use her mind to grind the storage ring in her hand. To her surprise, the storage ring in her hand was easily opened by her. The contents of the ring made her heart completely unable to keep quiet.
Yue Ying used her pitiful knowledge of formations to conceal the cave entrance again, and even found a large boulder to block the entrance before she returned to the cavern again, carefully cultivating while waiting for the closing time of the Angry Axe Valley.
……
The axe fist did not hit any substantial giant axe shadow, but the axe killing intent generated in his thoughts blasted into the invisible axe shadow, making a loud boom in his still unformed sea of consciousness.
After this boom, Ning Cheng was directly blasted tens of metres away, spewing blood from his mouth and hitting a huge stone wall.
Ning Cheng immediately sat up on his knees, he was not blown away by this axe shadow in his mind, but he felt the terrifying power of this axe shadow.
The killing intent and traces of the axe shadow continued to take shape in Ning Cheng’s consciousness, and the surrounding aura continued to gather. Even Ning Cheng himself did not know that not only was he comprehending and perfecting that one axe shadow in his consciousness, his cultivation level was also climbing and climbing again.
Ning Cheng did not open his eyes, but he could feel that the aura that had gathered over contained very little aura that he had never been exposed to before. This aura was even purer than the aura he had felt at the bottom of the Cold River at the Immortal Mansion’s gate, only that this aura was too thin, so thin that it was almost equal to nothing.
Even though this aura was so thin that it was almost non-existent, Ning Cheng’s cultivation level was still rising and rising again.
His cultivation level went from just advancing to the third level of true condensation to the middle and late third level of true condensation ……
A stern and clear axe shadow finally took shape in his divine thoughts, forming an unspeakable axe. The powerful axe intent carried in this axe made Ning Cheng want to stand up immediately and try it out with an axe strike. After this axe intent was formed and perfected in his consciousness, his cultivation level also directly broke through the shackles from the late third level of True Condensation to the fourth level of True Condensation.
Ning Cheng let out a long whistle and suddenly stood up. Only then did he see clearly that there was a withered bone lying dozens of metres ago, and Ning Cheng knew that he had just been blown away from that same spot.
Ning Cheng once again walked slowly to this dead bone and found a golden axe head before this dead bone. The axe mane was nearly half a metre wide and was covered in gold. Probably because it had been eroded by the valley’s axe-killing intent in the Angry Axe Valley, this golden axe head was completely devoid of traces of handmade refinement, as if it was a naturally formed axe head.
The withered bones’ clothes had turned to dust, a storage pouch had long since decayed, and the contents of the storage pouch were all gone, except for a golden coloured buckle lying under the corpse’s palm. Ning Cheng picked up this axe head and saw a few words engraved on the handle, Blue Jade Chen’s Golden Axe.
Ning Cheng could tell that this axe head was only a very high quality magic weapon. He had already guessed that this Lan Yuchen should also have come to the Angry Axe Valley to comprehend the axe intent, but unlike himself, Lan Yuchen had an axe that belonged to him.
Thinking about the terrifying axe shadow that had suddenly landed in the middle of his divine thoughts after he had walked here just now, Ning Cheng had already understood how Lan Yuchen had fallen.
Lan Yuchen had also walked here, only that he had failed to block that axe shadow, and as a result, he had been blasted by this axe shadow from the Angry Axe Valley in his Violet Mansion of Intent, and had finally fallen here.
After understanding this, Ning Cheng even had some second thoughts in his heart, if he hadn’t comprehended that hint of axe intent in the Great An Forest, at this time, he would have fallen, right?
Ning Cheng put aside Lan Yu Chen’s Golden Giant Axe, he had obtained an axe, although the grade of the axe was very low, it would allow him to have some self-preservation in this. Drinking from the water, Ning Cheng felt that he should bury Lan Yu Chen’s bones.
He blasted out a stone pit in its place and collected Lan Yu Chen’s corpse bones in a jade box before placing the jade box in the pit. Before burying the pit, Ning Cheng picked up the golden coloured belt buckle again.
There was a line engraved on the buckle, “Wishing husband Yu Chen all the care in the world, wife Miao Shu looks forward to it day and night ……”
Ning Cheng’s heart was a little gloomy, this golden buckle should have been given to Lan Yuchen by his wife Miao Shu, his wife’s meaning was to expect her husband to return to her side soon and live and cultivate with her. However, she did not expect that her husband had fallen while he was comprehending the Axe Killing Intent in the Angry Axe Valley.
Ning Cheng sighed as he recalled an ancient poem he had learnt, “Pity the bones by the River Wuding, still a man in a deep boudoir dream.
Compared to Lan Yu Chen, wouldn’t he be the same? Ji Luofei was still waiting for him at Divine Wind Academy, he definitely could not be like Lan Yuchen, leaving those who were waiting for him with their heads held high but no expectations.
Ning Cheng put the belt buckle into the jade box as well, and then filled up the pit. This buckle was a testimony of the love between Lan Yuchen and his wife Miao Shu, so there was no need to take it away.
Ning Cheng once again grabbed the golden axe, and that majestic killing intent once again flooded into his mind as Ning Cheng suddenly leapt up, the huge axe in his hand already slashing down with a bang.
A golden-coloured axe shadow slashed through the air, cutting through everything in front of the axe in this instant, and with an air-breaking aura, it swept out all the killing intent around it. At this moment, the axe shadow was as if it was going to cut through the sky, and the aura was tragic and unreturnable.
It was as if the autumn wind was sweeping away the falling leaves with a stern and harsh killing momentum as it was blasted out by the huge axe in Ning Cheng’s hand. When this axe shadow had just been blasted out, it was still exactly the same as the traces of the axe shadow that Ning Cheng had comprehended, but when this axe shadow had already taken shape and gathered momentum, this axe shadow had already taken on Ning Cheng’s own emotions and trajectory.
“Boom ……” The golden axe shadow blasted on top of the huge stone wall with an amazing explosive sound, rocks flew around, and the huge hard stone wall was blasted with a deep and long trace by this axe shadow.
What a powerful axe, Ning Cheng felt that this axe was several times stronger than the gun intent of the gun he had comprehended before. An axe with such a strong axe killing intent must be given a name.
Ning Cheng could not think of a better name for a while, but thought that this axe was the first axe intent that he had comprehended in the Angry Axe Valley, and with a powerful aura, he had cut a deep mark in this Angry Axe Valley, so he would simply call it the Angry Axe First Form, the First Mark.
The name, First Trace of the Furious Axe, seemed very simple, but Ning Cheng liked it extremely when he thought of it. He held the giant axe in his hand, and his heart was filled with a powerful confidence at this moment. He had not yet refined this giant axe and it was able to exert such a powerful force, once he refined the giant axe and blasted out the First Scar with all his might, how terrifying would it be? In the future, when he had obtained a more powerful axe weapon, what would that power be?
Ning Cheng did not immediately refine the giant axe in his hand, and it was only at this moment that he had the time to observe the place where he was.
This was a deep and long deep valley, Ning Cheng had no idea when he had entered or how he had entered. This deep valley was filled with an incomparably powerful axe killing intent, and this axe rhythm surrounded him endlessly, causing his comprehension of axe intent to rise and rise again.
Ning Cheng was even more delighted when he felt the axe rhythm around him, and he decided to refine the golden axe in his hand first, and then slowly comprehend the axe killing intent in the Furious Axe Valley. Even if he could get nothing from the Valley of the Angry Axe, as long as he could comprehend this Axe Slaying Intent, the harvest for him would already be the greatest of all. What’s more, there was an even better cultivation aura than aura inside the Angry Axe Valley, although this aura was very thin.
Refining an extremely fine magic weapon was not much of a difficulty for Ning Cheng, and to Ning Cheng’s surprise, after refining the golden giant axe in his hand, he had surprisingly obtained a new message. Inside this giant axe was also a detailed explanation of the meaning.
There was an essential difference between killing intent and spells, killing intent was the origin power derived from a magic treasure or spell or even a move. A person who controls a powerful killing intent can even destroy all obstacles with his or her killing intent. Whether it is sword intent, spear intent, or axe intent, etc., they are all extensions of killing intent, and all belong within killing intent.
Not only are there high and low levels of killing intent, but there are also the five realms of killing intent.
When one initially feels the killing intent and can make use of it, this is the first glimpse of the killing intent realm. Ning Cheng paid himself that he could already feel the killing intent when he saw the gun marks and axe marks in the Daan Forest and could comprehend the axe fist.
The second realm of killing intent was a small success, and he could inspire his own killing energy in his own magic treasure against the enemy, forming a preliminary killing power. Ning Cheng understood that he had likewise exceeded the realm of Minor Achievement, and when he had comprehended that shot when he had fought against Meng Yu Jing, it had shown that he had reached the Realm of Minor Achievement of Killing Intent.
The third realm of killing intent, Da Cheng, could inspire one’s killing intent to form a killing potential, a killing potential that not only put one at an advantage, but could also put one’s opponent under invisible suppression and restraint.
Ning Cheng breathed out, when he had previously comprehended the First Trace of the Angry Axe and blasted out this first axe, he was already at the Grand Formation of Axe Killing Intent.
The fourth realm of killing intent was enlightened, at this realm, when the killing intent rose, the killing momentum would be at will and at one’s fingertips.
The fifth realm of killing intent is extremely vague, only saying that when a cultivator reaches this realm, killing intent is everywhere.
