All the people flocked to the Axe Valley, but Ningcheng didn't enter. He sat outside Axe Valley, already fully immersed in a new understanding of Axe Intent.
Time trickled by, and the previous clamor here had long since disappeared. Only around Ningcheng, who was still sitting outside Axe Valley, were there traces of Axe Intent whirling, similar to the killing intent that surrounded the mound before the explosion. Traces of Axe Intent gradually took shape in Ningcheng's consciousness.
Just as Ningcheng was about to clearly comprehend the third Rage Axe's Axe Intent, the countless cracks around the Axe Valley in his consciousness suddenly became intermittent and no longer as coherent as what he had just seen. The more Ningcheng tried to connect the Axe Intent, the more difficult he found it.
