This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable

He ordered.

The subordinates nodded repeatedly and soon their figures disappeared.

He continued to stand in the same place, continuing to watch the unusual changes of the Bloodstain Battle Technique Stele.

....

Lu Qingshan focused his concentration on the crystal-clear jade stele in front of him.

This towering warfare stele was covered with bloodstains, at first glance it seemed somewhat sloppy, like random graffiti.

But once he concentrated his attention on the stele surface, it was as if a whirlpool appeared inside the warfare stele, pulling all his mind into it.

All of Lu Qingshan's spiritual consciousness instantly became completely immersed in it, forgetting both self and time.

To outsiders, those bloodstains seemed to constantly change in a manner they couldn't comprehend.

But in Lu Qingshan's consciousness, these bloodstains transformed into beams of sword light, constantly combining, forming wave after wave of attacking frenzy.

The Mangcang Demon Venerable did not leave direct skills behind, but rather insights into the warfare technique.

What is warfare technique insight?

It is not a specific warfare technique, and it does not directly teach various techniques and methods of execution, so it can't make the perceiver directly master a warfare technique.

It is just an insight, a thought, an enlightenment.

Different people see different scenes, and what they ultimately manifest after gaining insight varies.

It is not like a specific warfare technique that, once mastered by the cultivator, brings direct increase in combat power.

Warfare technique insight acts broadly and over the long term.

It contains profound mysteries that can continuously guide the perceiver to comprehend, to improve, and to utilize in every aspect.

Just like once having learned the ultimate thoughts, they can be applied in various fields of study.

This is also why Lu Qingshan never had great confidence in comprehending the Mangcang Warfare Technique.

— The Mangcang Warfare Technique is just an insight, which means it is not a skill that can be directly learned through 'Deep Blue' divine skills.

Moreover, even if the Mangcang Warfare Technique was a skill, his 'Deep Blue' would likely be useless.

Because many skills have learning conditions.

For example, the Sunflower Manual's "To practice this skill, one must first self-castrate."

As the undisputed strongest warfare technique in the Burning Moon Domain, the learning conditions for the Mangcang Warfare Technique are undoubtedly extremely stringent.

The system can only allow him to quickly master a skill, but it won't be so tyrannical as to forcibly master a warfare technique without meeting the conditions.

With such concerns in mind, it wasn't until after gaining insight in Ying Jie, in the days he stayed indoors flipping through various classics, that he suddenly realized something.

Due to the "Refining Furnace" divine skill, the War Demon Clan would nurture a highly handy and intimate demon soldier, which they would use as the main combat weapon.

And the warfare technique is the technique of battle.

It shares the same concept as the human cultivator's spells and divine skills, just with a different name.

So, just as sword cultivators' spells must be related to swords, the War Demon Clan's warfare techniques must also be closely related to their demon soldiers.

And the Mangcang Demon Venerable's demon soldier is a 'demon' sword.

Then the Mangcang Warfare Technique he left behind should actually be equivalent to....

Mangcang Sword Technique!

As for other warfare techniques, Lu Qingshan wasn't confident.

But if it was a sword technique…

Isn't this a piece of cake for Peach Blossom?

With the full sword dao talent enhancement given by the Innate Swordseed, theoretically, there should be no swordsmanship in the world that he couldn't understand.

...

Of course, these judgments were initially just his guesses.

Although he was ninety-nine percent sure, there was still a bit of unease in his heart.

Until he just saw these six warfare steles with his own eyes, the huge stone hanging in his heart finally fell.

The Mangcang Sword Technique without a doubt.

All six steles, indeed!

.....

The demon race's swordsmanship system is completely different from the sword cultivator's swordsmanship system.

Yet all paths lead to the same destination.

Moreover, the Mangcang Demon Venerable left behind not rigid warfare techniques but the most flexible insights.

This allowed Lu Qingshan to completely absorb the essence of it according to his own situation and create something uniquely his own.

Just as Marxist ideology will bear different fruits in different soils.

In Huaxia, the fruit that grows is characteristic socialism that best fits this soil.

...

In Lu Qingshan's eyes, each bloodstain transformed into sword light, seemingly taking him through eternity.

His mind wandered and floated, as if transformed into an elusive ghost, arriving in the boundless ancient era.

The vast wilderness of the demon domain, demonic cultivators in ancient attire, wielding swords traversed freely.

Sword light reached the heavens, shaking the sky and earth, sketching endless bloody sword scars in the void that lingered for long.

Each sword scar was mysterious and immeasurable.

This kind of swordsmanship directly pointed to the heart sea.

"Such powerful swordsmanship." Lu Qingshan murmured.

He meticulously studied and contemplated deeply, quietly researching, pondering the invincible swordsmanship insights left by the War Demon Clan's strongest Mangcang Demon Venerable.

The more he deduced, the more astonished he became.

Heaven and earth split and merge, void leaves traces, the aura is impressive.

No wonder the Mangcang Demon Venerable could shake the world with divine might back then, truly extraordinarily talented to have created such swordsmanship.

Lu Qingshan's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but marvel.

Using the sword as a weapon, the Mangcang Demon Venerable could evolve such powerful swordsmanship.

Then true sword immortals who dedicate their lives to the sword, treating the sword as a companion, how would their swordsmanship manifest the universe, split and merge heaven and earth, forming magnificent visions?

Thinking of this, infinite longing arose in his heart.
