Path to Heaven

Sitting cross-legged on the silver grass blanket, Wei Suo picked up the magic treasure in front of him that was shaped like a small yellow hill.

Now, the immortal Gu bag with the three bugs was taken by Ji Ya. Just as he expected, there were indeed more than 30 three-colored flying silkworms in the chaotic cultivator's immortal Gu bag. However, according to the records of the "Celestial Gu Art" of the Dragon Parasite Sect, in order to take in these three colored silkworms for one's own use, one had to unleash a blood-refining technique at a time.

A Three-colored Flying Worm needed to drip several drops of its own blood. This was nothing. The key point was that it would take about a day to refine one blood.

In order to give Wei Suo more time to cultivate, Jia Ya took the Immortal Gu bag and went to refine the three colored silkworms into her blood.

What a good girl. In the past, Ji Ya only cared for Han Weiwei, but now, other than Han Weiwei, she also cared for Wei Suo.

Thinking of this, a trace of a moved expression flashed across Wei Suo's eyes. He then tried to rouse the chaotically haired cultivator to start this magic treasure.

This magic treasure looked very ordinary, just like a lump of loess. However, from the looks of it, the defensive power of this magic treasure had at least reached the intermediate Spirit level when the chaotic cultivator fought with Wei Suo.

"Eh?"

The pleasant surprise in his eyes was that as he concentrated his true essence, the yellow gas on this yellow hill-like magical treasure quickly condensed into a yellow cocoon around his body. However, he could still clearly see the scenery outside from inside.

Although this yellow hill-shaped magical equipment had extremely dense earth spiritual energy, it was clearly an earth type magical equipment. However, when used, it was equivalent to a light shield type magical equipment.

The magic treasure of the Spiritual Light Barrier was an omnidirectional defense. Moreover, Wei Suo's most powerful Spiritual Light Equipment, which was also the Spiritual Light Wood Token made from the Phoenix Wood, was only close to the low-grade Spiritual Tier. Now that the defensive power of this Magic Treasure had reached the Spiritual Tier and above, it could be said to solve the problem of not having a common Spiritual Light barrier Magic Treasure when Wei Suo's cultivation level increased.

If it wasn't for the fact that the Blackwater Lotus could be upgraded, the value of this magic treasure would actually be above that of the Blackwater Lotus.

After putting away the yellow hill-shaped magic treasure, Wei Suo didn't think anymore about it. He took out a Gold Spirit Pill and swallowed it. He began his true cultivation journey on this "Blackchicken Island".

… ….

Time flowed like water.

A white fog surrounded a small, quiet island, and Ning trained for an even longer period of time.

However, every time he desperately cultivated the pill to the point where his spiritual sense would become exhausted, it would be the most alluring moment. Therefore, this "tough training" was not difficult for Wei Suo at all.

Now, Wei Suo completely understood why most cultivators wanted to find a beautiful female cultivator as their dual cultivation partner.

Because the higher the cultivation, the longer one needed to break through to the next stage. If one didn't have a beloved pair of Dao-companions with them, then the days of cultivation would be far too difficult to bear.

Taking Wei Suo for example, he had been cultivating in seclusion in Ling Yue City for more than 40 days when he broke through to the third level of the cycle, from the fourth level of the cycle to the fifth level.

Originally, Wei Suo had a considerable amount of Golden Spirit Pills on him, as well as the storage rooms of the Jin Manor. Along the way, he had obtained these pills and traded them with the cultivators on the hibernation ship.

However, after 130 days, all of the pills in his body were finally used up.

From now on, he could only rely on the spirit stones on his body to cultivate.

Fortunately, this small island that could be ignored in the Sea of Stings seemed to have been completely forgotten by the world. Not only were there no powerful cultivators passing by, but even Class 4 and above demonic beasts had not been seen.

The days passed one by one.

After another forty days, a faint sound of waves breaking came from Wei Suo's temporary cave abode.

In the simple stone room covered with a silver grass blanket, the rumbling sound was many times louder than the noise outside.

Jia Ya and the green-robed old man were currently in the stone room, observing Wei Suo.

At this moment, not far from Ji Ya, on Wei Suo's body, ten balls of dazzling, purple light were being released.

Ten lumps of Divine Sea brilliance.

Wei Suo had finally broken through from the fourth level to the fifth level.

However, whether it was Wei Suo, Ji Ya, or the green-robed old man, when they saw that he had finally broken through to the fifth level of the Revolving Core realm, the expressions on their faces were very calm. They were not satisfied.

Twenty days ago, Wei Suo, Ji Ya, and the green-robed old man had already checked all the resources on their bodies and made new plans.

There was no other way. Relying on spirit stones to cultivate was way too slow.

Originally, with Wei Suo's current dual spiritual roots, if he had enough Gold Spiritual Pills and other pills, he should only need 140 days to successfully become a cultivator at the fifth level of the Revolving Core realm. But now, Wei Suo had spent a total of 30 more days.

With Wei Suo's current cultivation, the speed at which he refined a medicinal pill such as the Gold Spirit Pill was about four times faster than refining spirit stones.

Now that Wei Suo had cultivated to the fifth level of the Circulatory Cycle Realm, if there was enough pills, it would take about 140 days. If it was at the fifth level of the Circulatory Cycle Realm, to reach the first level would require almost double the time, which would take at least two hundred and eighty days.

Wei Suo currently had enough Spirit Stones, but if he were to use them to cultivate, it would take him far longer than three years.

When the stench of blood on his body completely dissipated and he was able to awaken his Qi Sea, it would be impossible for him to break through to the first level of the Fragmentation Realm.

There was an essential difference between the first level of the Fragmentation Realm and the fifth level of the Heavenly Axis Realm.

Cultivators at the 5th level of the Natal Opening Realm couldn't split their divine sense. They could only use magic treasures one by one. Only after taking back the magic treasure would they be able to use them again. However, a cultivator of the Fragmentation Realm could use two magic treasures at the same time. For cultivators that didn't have powerful magic treasures or powerful spells, the difference between the fifth level of the Refinement Stage and the first level of the Fragmentation Realm might not be too obvious. However, Wei Suo currently had several intermediate level spirit level magic treasures in his possession, as well as a mid-level sky level magic technique that he was currently training in.

If Wei Suo was at the first level of the Fragmentation Realm, his power would double against the enemy. When that happens, his Qi Sea Burst would be even more safe.

Wei Suo, Jia Ya, and the green-robed old man carefully calculated. Out of all the resources in Wei Suo's possession, there were only two things that could help him break through to the first level of the Fragmentation Realm.

One of the items was the Golden Spotted Ginseng Fruit that Wei Suo had gotten with great difficulty.

When Wei Suo went to the Phoenix Nest City, he gave two ginseng fruits with golden spots to Han Weiwei and told her to bring them back for Ji Ya's test.

If there was no problem with the properties of the pills, then he would just treat the two as a reward for Han Weiwei. Originally, Wei Suo thought so, but he didn't expect that things would turn out differently. The moment Wei Suo left, things suddenly changed. The entire Treasure Pavilion fell into the hands of Dong Yao Resort, and thus, the two ginseng fruits fell into Dong Yao's hands.

After Ji Ya's initial test, she had already confirmed that there was no poison in them. In addition, Ji Ya had also found that the spiritual power and medicinal power contained in them were both extremely shocking. If the spiritual power contained in them could be absorbed quickly, then it would not only be a simple matter of soul enhancement, but also have a certain effect on accelerating the progress of one's cultivation. As this fruit was extremely precious, Ji Ya couldn't bear to waste it. Therefore, she only turned one of the fruit into a medicinal liquid. Next, she would wait for Wei Suo to test out the miraculous effects of this ginseng fruit.

Other than the Gold Spotted Ginseng Fruit, there was also a small green rock that could help Wei Suo break through to the first level of the Fragmentation Realm. It was the three green stones that could extend the growth of elixirs that the Gold Spotted Ginseng Fruit had found together.

In the current market of the Tianxuan Continent, among the common cultivation pills, the Golden Origin Pill refined from the beast cores of the fourth level was at least ten times more effective than the Golden Spirit Pill. Furthermore, a grade 5 beast's beast core could produce ten times the effect of a Golden Yuan Dan. In other words, the effect of a grade 5 beast's beast core was equivalent to a hundred Golden Spirit Pills.

The green-robed old man knew a lot about concocting rank 4 and 5 pills, while Ji Ya was a rank 6 alchemist and a fire spirit cultivator. As long as she could find a suitable pill and other supplementary medicines, she would be able to concoct pills similar to those of the Golden Origin Pill or the Primordial Dao Pill.

Furthermore, the medicinal properties of the supplementary medicines were extremely important to the quality of the medicinal pills. Amongst those supplementary elixirs, there were some that could use the small green stone to raise the elixir's strength. This way, as long as she could find enough supplementary medicines, Jia should be able to refine many high-quality pills.

In that incident at the Four Seas Hall, Wei Suo had obtained thousands of demon beasts in one go. Furthermore, the Heart Devouring Bug only needed to absorb the brain essence.

From the map and Huawei's notes, Wei Suo, Ji Ya, and the green-robed old man discovered that there were a few large islands within this Sea of Aura, and many of them even grew spiritual medicines.

So now was the time to see how effective the ginseng fruits were. If it didn't have much effect on raising one's cultivation, then he would have to go to the islands to collect some spiritual medicines. Some of them were able to be transplanted and had already reached the stage of maturity. The medicinal effects would not accumulate any more and they would still have to be brought back. Using the green small stone, they would continue to increase the medicinal effects.

… ….

Seeing that Wei Suo's cultivation had stopped increasing, Ji Ya nodded her head and handed over a thin, white jade bottle that was the size of a snuff bottle to Wei Suo.

Wei Suo opened the lid of the jade bottle and carefully poured a small drop of ginseng spirit liquid into his mouth.

This small drop of sap also flashed with a multicolored light. It was extremely strange.
