Path to Heaven Chapter 252

About an incense stick of time later, from within the swirling winds of Demon Eye Island, a burst of crackling sounds could be heard as the Jade Void Violet Boat that was wrapped in a giant yellow coc.o.o.n came out.

"Looks like it's been at least several decades since a cultivator entered the Demon Eye Island."

As the boat slowly landed, Ji Ya couldn't help but turn her head and say this to Wei Suo.

At the peak of Demon Eye Island, she saw red berries the size of an egg growing on a green plant that was as tall as a person.

This red berry had a cloud-like pattern on its surface; it was obviously a Red Cloud Pearl Fruit that could be used to dispel the pernicious effects of some Demonic Corroding Medicinal Herbs.

There weren't many of these herbs in the outside world, and looking at the color of these Red Cloud Pearl Fruits, the medicinal strength should have already reached its peak twenty years ago. If a cultivator were to enter the Demon Eye Island within the next twenty years, it should be impossible for him to not gather this kind of elixir.

Wei Suo nodded. He was not in a hurry to descend and collect this kind of spiritual medicine. Instead, he stopped in the air and started to examine the entire island.

An astonishing huge wind swirled above the seawater whirlpool outside of the island, causing the Demon Eye Island to look like a greenhouse. The plants on the island were almost as thriving as the ones in the Mi Tian Valley.

After watching from the air for a while, a strange light flashed in Wei Suo's eyes, and the Jade Void Purple Ship sank down. First, it swept all the fruits on the Red Cloud Pearl Fruit away with its dark green Yin Qi, and then it flew down to a valley on the south side of Demon Eye Island near the mountain peak.

The entire valley was only a few miles in radius and the ground was very flat. However, like many places on Demon Eye Island, it was covered in a layer of gray light.

Stopping on the Purple Jade Boat above the valley, Wei Suo, Ji Ya, and the green-robed old man were all bewildered.

Most of the rocks exposed in this valley were black, and the faint grey light was emitted from these rocks. It was clear that these stones were the "Fallen Blood Stones" that could destroy a cultivator's vital energy and blood.

The grey light emitted by the stone was very similar to the grey light emitted from the red beast's magical pearl. However, in comparison, the light was extremely faint while the light was extremely dense.

This gave Wei Suo a feeling that the reason why the little red beast stayed on Devil Eye Island was to absorb the grey light and increase the power of the Magic Pearl.

And at this moment, what attracted the attention of Wei Suo and the others was a black broken bridge.

In the middle of this valley, there was actually a black broken bridge!

The surface of this broken bridge was around fifteen meters wide, and it gave off a feeling as if it were being held up into the sky. It seemed that when this bridge was complete, it should have stretched extremely far into the sky, but at this moment, this bridge was only left with a section below, less than twenty meters high. The broken parts were crisscrossed and covered with cracks, not as if they had been weathered, but as if someone had used a technique to forcefully break it.

What was even more astonishing was that this broken bridge was actually covered entirely in the black "Fallen Blood Stone".

Obviously, this broken bridge was made by a cultivator. However, after a few careful scans with his spiritual sense, this broken bridge didn't have a single trace of rune on it, so he couldn't see the original purpose of this bridge.

After muttering to himself irresolutely for a moment, Wei Suo commanded the boat to circle around Demon Eye Island.

After circling the island for a while, Wei Suo's boat flew back to the southern side of the mountain and stopped in the air.

About three hundred feet in front of the Purple Jade Boat stood a huge black monument.

This monolith had also been broken, but the remaining parts were all at least four hundred feet high, giving off an extremely powerful oppressive feeling.

At the same time, the entire tablet was also made of "Fallen Blood Stones", emitting layers of faint grey light. Similarly, there were no runes at all on it.

Behind the giant monument was a platform like ruin. Although the surface of the ground with a radius of two hundred feet was full of potholes, it was obvious that it had been previously paved with Fallen Blood Stones. Around this platform, there were even large piles of Shattered Fallen Blood Stones. Judging from the regular pattern of the pieces, some of them still perfectly round in appearance, they seemed to be the remains of some statues.

After staying and chatting for a while, Wei Suo urged the Jade Void Purple Ship to leave the place.

More than half a day later, the boat returned to this place.

In this period of time, Wei Suo and Ji Ya had already collected almost all of the spiritual medicines on the Demonic Eye Island. On the north side of the bottom of the island, Wei Suo had collected over three thousand red hair plants. The pill that would help him break through to the first level of the Fragmentation Realm would definitely not be a problem.

However, this Demon Eye Island was a little strange. Because there were valleys with broken black bridges, there were more than eighteen of them on the entire island.

… ….

When Wei Suo returned to the front of the black monument, he grabbed a grindstone that was the size of a millstone and stored it in his storage bag.

A blurry layer of grey light quickly seeped out from the storage pouch.

Wesson frowned.

He still had five or six empty storage pouches in his hands. Originally, he had wanted to bring some more 'Fallen Blood Stones' back and spread them around the exterior of his cave mansion. This would be equivalent to adding an extra defensive barrier around it. However, if the brilliance of this "Fallen Blood Stone" was able to penetrate the spatial storage pouch, then he could only give up on this idea.

Because this kind of grey light was harmful to cultivators every moment, although Wei Suo and Ji Ya were not enveloped by the grey light from the Fallen Blood Stone, this grey light's power seemed to have already permeated the entire Devil Eye Island. It was obvious that their blood vitality was slightly damaged, as if their lifespan was being cut down. However, what could be seen with the naked eye was that the thicker the grey light was, the more damage it would cause to the cultivator's body. It might be able to instantly extinguish several years of the cultivator's lifespan.

He took out the "Fallen Blood Stone" and threw it far away. Then, he turned his attention to the giant black monument in front of him.

In this place, there were so many strange broken bridge remains, especially with such a huge monument and a ruined platform, there must be something mysterious inside. Putting everything else aside, just the gray brilliance emitted by the black monument made it so that Wei Suo did not dare to approach within a two thousand feet radius.

With Wei Suo's current true essence cultivation, as long as he was within 2000 feet of the black monument, he would quickly age.

Even ordinary Aurous Core stage cultivators would not necessarily be able to enter this kind of grey light without rapidly aging, not to mention creating so many strange bridges and platforms.

After a moment of silence, he saw that Wei Suo did not go near the black monument. Instead, he stopped at a distance of 2400 feet. He used his dark black Yin Qi to roll up a dark green knife and began cutting the bottom of the monument.

Right now, he was only curious. In any case, he already came, so he wanted to test the profoundness of this place. However, regardless of whether he himself destroyed it or not, it did not matter.

After being tempered by Wei Suo's primordial flames, this dark green knife which was made from a better material than ordinary flying swords was still much tougher than the "Fallen Blood Stone". After about half an incense stick of time, this giant black monument was cut in half and fell to the ground with a loud bang.

At the bottom, the entire section was still completely filled with the black "Fallen Blood Stones", without any sign of mystery.

There was no sign of disappointment on Wei Suo's face. He patiently used a dark green knife to cut the black monument into several pieces. After finding nothing, he wrapped the monument with dark green Yin Qi and threw it far away.

At this time, the advantage of a heaven-rank magic technique like the Profound Fiend Technique was revealed.

Even though normal techniques could be activated with true essence, they were unlike the Arcane Art, which required dual cultivation to produce Yin Qi. When facing enemies, the Yin Qi would also be consumed. However, the Xuan Sha technique was powerful, and the Yin Qi acc.u.mulated over thousands of times was comparable to a low-rank spirit treasure. Furthermore, at the level of Wei Suo, he could take on whatever form he wanted.

Ordinary magic techniques and treasures, as long as they had Wei Suo's powerful spiritual sense, could reach such a distance and also destroy this huge black monument. However, after shattering, the "Fallen Blood Stone" would still be scattered on the ground, and the grey light that was detrimental to the cultivators would still not disappear much. Furthermore, even the true essence of an Aurous Core stage cultivator could not exert a force of more than two hundred feet.

Unless one used the remaining several decades of their lifespan to advance a step in the gray light, otherwise, there was no hope of getting rid of the fragmented "Fallen Blood Stones" one by one.

But now, it was different. Wei Suo relied on this Profound Fiend Technique to clear up the black monument that had been cut into several sections. The gray light in front of him immediately dimmed by more than half.

Immediately after, Wei Suo circled around the platform, slowly cleaning up all the pieces of Fallen Blood Stones around the platform.

After all of the Blood Stones surrounding the platform had been cleaned up, Wei Suo would be able to enter the two thousand feet radius around the edge of the platform. At this moment, when he saw the platform in front of him, Wei Suo's eyebrows couldn't help but twitch.

At this moment, the platform had been completely cleaned up. The grey light emitted by the platform had formed a semicircle light barrier above it.

Adding on the giant monument that had already been cleared out by Wei Suo, this semicircle of grey light looked like a tomb, and that giant black monument looked like a tombstone.

After a moment of hesitation, Wei Suo used his dark green knife and began to cut up the Blood Stones around the platform. The Blood Stones that he cut down were also thrown far away.
