This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable-Chapter 495 - 21 Human Killing Intent, Heaven and Earth Cycle (Part 1)
Chapter 495: Chapter 21 Human Killing Intent, Heaven and Earth Cycle (Part 1)
Heavy eyelids, after a struggle, finally slowly opened, and the view before his eyes gradually cleared.
What met Lu Qingshan’s eyes was a yellowed tent top.
Looking at that dirty and worn tent top, his memories before he had fallen unconscious surged forth like a tide.
His Flawless Dao Foundation had been extracted, and while heavily injured, he had overused Heaven Suppressing.
Even with the power of the Oblivion spirit, his condition had improved from merely terrible to slightly less terrible.
Thus, after forcibly severing his own Flawless Dao Foundation, he had passed out uncontrollably.
...
Lu Qingshan struggled, slowly supporting his body into a sitting position with his arms.
After sitting up, he calmed his mind and spirit, delving into his Dantian.
His Nascent Soul was still sitting within the Dantian, but now its divine light was dim, eyes tightly closed, as if in deep slumber, no longer emitting any trace of might.
Since he had cut off his Flawless Dao Foundation, he must start from the Qi Refining Realm to rebuild it.
Before rebuilding his foundation, he was just a mortal who had lost all his cultivation.
However, though he had lost his cultivation, his level of insight remained.
Thus, this path of re-cultivating his foundation, compared to his initial cultivation, would naturally be much easier.
Because, before his cultivation recovered to the Early Stage Nascent Soul, his cultivation would not encounter any bottlenecks.
“It really is like going back to square one…” Lu Qingshan felt the situation within his body and reflected, “With this opportunity, I must forge a truly Flawless Dao Foundation.”
He had cruelly severed his own Flawless Dao Foundation as a means of remedying past mistakes.
Luckily, he had discovered the problem early.
If he had cultivated to the Sixth or Seventh Realm before discovering the issue with his foundation, the cost of rebuilding it would truly be too great.
Moreover, to extract his foundation completely unscathed from his body would definitely not be an easy feat.
Fortunately, the Mountain Ghost’s divine abilities were strong enough.
In this way, the Mountain Ghost actually aided him indirectly by helping him discover his problem sooner.
Truly a good ghost.
Lu Qingshan mused.
Within his Dantian, aside from the dimly lit Nascent Soul, there was actually a thin layer of deep green Spiritual Power.

That was power from the Power of the Mountains and Seas, which he had not yet completely expended.
The remaining part of the Power of the Mountains and Seas was equivalent to the Spiritual Power Quota of a Golden Core Late Stage cultivator.
But this was a one-time boost, and once used, could not be restored, so he had to be sparing with it until he could regain his own Spiritual Power.
Lu Qingshan’s spirit left the Dantian, and he furrowed his brows, only then beginning to notice his situation, “Where am I?”
Just then, the tent curtain that had been lowered was lifted by someone.
Lu Qingshan’s gaze turned towards the entrance.
Only when he saw two figures, one tall and one short, did he let down his guard.
“Young Master, you have awakened?” The tall figure, Qin Yitian, seeing Lu Qingshan conscious, expressed delight on his face.
The short figure was a little girl, thin and pale, with joy and a trace of timidity in her eyes.
She was the girl from the ‘Yang’ tribe who had taken a ‘mooncake’ from him before and had informed him about everything regarding the Duke of Thunder’s pool.
This meant he must currently be within the ‘Yang’ tribe.
Lu Qingshan quickly realized.
Under Lu Qingshan’s gaze, Yang Qing’er initially panicked a bit, nervously rubbing her clothing corners with her left hand, but still mustered the courage to extend the old clay bowl in her hands, timidly saying, “Your injuries are severe, drinking this should help you recover faster…”
Lu Qingshan glanced at the clay bowl Yang Qing’er handed over, inside was some greenish, mushy liquid, emitting an unpleasant smell.
Seemingly afraid Lu Qingshan would disdain it, Yang Qing’er quickly added, “When the men in the tribe are injured, they all drink a bowl of ‘Tibetan medicine’, and it helps them recover quickly.”
“This is a medicine that Qing’er personally climbed the canyon walls to pick the herbs for and then brewed,” Qin Yitian said, “Young Master, you have been unconscious for three days.”
“I have caused you worry,” Lu Qingshan acknowledged softly to Qin Yitian.
Then, he smiled kindly at Yang Qing’er and took the so-called ‘Tibetan medicine’ and drained the bowl in one gulp.
He turned the clay bowl upside down towards Yang Qing’er, shaking it to show he had finished every drop.
Yang Qing’er showed a shy smile.
“I am called Yang Qing’er,” she said quietly, cautiously sizing up Lu Qingshan.
“I am called Lu Qingshan. I don’t understand how this came to be, how did I end up here?” Lu Qingshan asked the young girl with a gentle smile.
“I was picking food for the tribe when I saw Sister Yitian carrying you, drenched in blood, coming from inside…” Yang Qing’er referred to the Duke of Thunder’s pool, “Seeing you so badly injured, I brought you back immediately…”
“But…” Yang Qing’er paused, looking cautious, “The Clan Leader Grandfather saw your injuries and said you were a Cultivator before, but now your cultivation seems to be completely destroyed, he fears…”
Lu Qingshan did not agree or explain.
Ding, ding, ding!
Suddenly, a ringing sound came from outside the tent, mixed with faint cheers.
At this moment, delight also spread across Yang Qing’er’s face.
“It must be the hunting team coming back, it seems they have had a successful hunt, this time we have meat to eat, and with meat, your body can recover faster,” Yang Qing’er spoke with complete satisfaction, then added hopefully, “Do you want to go out and see?”
