Path to Heaven

Chapter 175: Dual Cultivation Skill Technique

Besides, establishing a cavern abode was an absolute necessity.

After provoking major sects like East Victory, Star Convening Sect, Heaven’s First Sect and others… constantly dwelling in the city’s interior would make it easier for them to investigate clues pointing towards him.

Anyway, these major factions presided over the law. Others wouldn’t dare to recklessly slay a cultivator in a city, but for them to murder a nameless Heavenly Circuit stage cultivator, it would be as easy as crushing an ant.

Without wanting to waste too much time, Wei Suo decided he had to prepare all the materials needed to construct an Earth Furnace room within a single day. Afterwards, he would choose a suitable location for his cavern abode. Proceeding from there, it would minimally require several days to fully construct his cavern abode, the Earth Furnace, and other defensive mechanisms. When that time came, Zhen Chongming should be roughly done with the Heaven Mending Pellets required for his cultivation technique to break through to the Mid-level Earth Rank. He would then receive them to his constructed cavern abode.

Thus, Wei Suo carefully inquired of the conditions and prerequisites of constructing an Earth Furnace from the Old Man.

Yet after clarifying everything, Wei Suo could already feel a throbbing heartache just from calculating the manufacturing costs of a single Earth Furnace.

Firstly, the qualifications to choose a mid grade Earth Furnace already required 20,000 low grade spiritual stones.

In addition to excavating the earth flame of an underground fire vein, and to procure particular formation arrays and artifacts necessary, it would minimally cost 30,000 low grade spiritual stones.

If one didn’t need to frequently operate the Earth Furnace, other things wouldn’t be necessary. However, for Wei Suo who desired to concoct Heaven Mending pellets and artifacts, repeatedly operating the furnace for long periods of time, one requires a formation array that could prevent the source flame from leaking out. Moreover, Cold Jade must be embedded around the furnace, otherwise clouds of red heat may form above the cavern abode; thereby attracting attention from others, revealing his cavern abode.

In addition to those, the Earth Furnace Wei Suo desired soared to a valuation of 70,000 low grade spiritual stones.

Therefore, please do not view sects like Heaven’s First Sect as mere profiteers who monopolized transportation arrays. In fact, the investment they poured into nurturing disciples was also pretty remarkable.

After clarifying the essentials of constructing an Earth Furnace, Wei Suo then carefully inquired of methods to nurture and control the Immortal Exterminating Vine. After the Old Man expounded on the manifold aspects of constructing a cavern abode, the sky was already gradually brightening.

At present, there was still some time before most shops would open. Nevertheless, Wei Suo didn’t choose to rest but immediately retrieved the jade talisman, the one that recorded Huang Tianya’s Blackfiend Great Technique, to view.

After viewing for a short while, Wei Suo’s expression became exceedingly queer.

The might of this skill technique could indeed attain the formidability of a Mid-level Heaven Rank skill technique.

Even the Heaven’s First Sect or the Star Convening Sect may not possess a Heaven Rank skill technique. Once in the Heavenly Profound Continent, a cultivator surfaced who complemented an invincible Heaven Rank skill technique with a trash Profound Rank cultivation technique. During his reign, he was unrivalled throughout the land under heaven.

It is said that in entire Heavenly Profound Continent, the total number of Heaven Rank Skill technique did not even reach 50.

However, this Blackfiend Great Technique wasn’t an ordinary technique, where comprehending it would allow a cultivator to unleash it with their true element energy. Instead, it was an exceptionally unique dual cultivation skill technique!

Looking at the introduction of the jade talisman, it actually detailed that only during an intimate session of making love, could one successfully cultivate this skill technique. That was the only way this skill technique could be unleashed against foes. The deeper the intimacy, the stronger would the Black Yin gas formed by true energy be. In other words, the more intimate sessions between a male and female cultivator, the greater the might of this skill technique.

Such a skill technique was analogous to the Dual Joy Meditation of the Greatjoy Palace. However, the Dual Joy Meditation requires both male and female cultivators to cultivate simultaneously. On the contrary, only a male cultivator can succeed in this Blackfiend Great Technique. Moreover, while the male cultivator’s Blackfiend Great Technique will enhance with every dual cultivation session, the essence seeds ejaculated by the male would form into a Frost Dan-pearl in the female’s body. That Frost Dan-pearl was hailed as the Blackmaiden Dan-pellet. Indeed, it was the same blue crystal pearl brimming with frosty aura that those two female cultivators back at Guhuai Manor possessed. According to the talisman, the Frost Dan-pearl would multiply in power in correlation to the amount of dual cultivation sessions. Eventually, its might may even surpass a Golden Dan-pellet formed a cultivator. This signified that if a female cultivator could attain the Golden Dan Stage, alongside cultivating a Frost Dan-Pearl with the same might, her prowess would vastly surmount an ordinary Golden Dan cultivator.

In spite of that, the cultivation speed of a Frost Dan-pearl in a female’s body, held the same speed as a cultivator training in true energy cultivation technique.

Following that, the talisman also described that at the beginning, the might of the Blackfiend Yin gas may not even pickup a single flower vase. As for the Frost Dan-pearl, it may be even tinier than a grain of rice.

According to the talisman, to reach the level of Huang Tianya and those two females, Wei Suo reckoned would require over a thousand times of dual cultivation. This piece of news was simply unbearable to a virgin like Wei Suo!

“****!”

Wei Suo howled with a complicated countenance. After carefully storing that ancient jade talisman, he produced the bottle of Skycloud Essence for a heart wrenching look.

Today, he had utterly witnessed the formidability of the Skycloud Essence. It was a pity he had used an excessive amount as he feared it wasn’t enough. As such, he was only left with a tiny sliver of Skycloud Essence. Wei Suo estimated that he could only utilize it for one last time, moreover, only to entice demonic beasts within a 300 li radius.

Most crucially, the Skycloud Essence was truly an utmost rarity within the entire Heavenly Profound Continent. For the Old Man to fish up a bottle of it, it was already marvelous luck. Wishing to purchase another bottle would be simply impossible.

Sorely feeling his heartache as he observed it like the apple of his eye, Wei Suo finally stored the remaining Skycloud Essence. Then, he consumed a Heaven Mending Pellet, before shutting his eyes and regulating his breathing.

After many hours refining loads of Heaven Mending pellets, Wei Suo opened his eyes and stood up. After advising and handing a pouch of spiritual stones to Zhu Xiaochun, Wei Suo strolled out of Spirit Treasure Lane. He then headed towards the largest market of Moonfall City.

****************************

Noon the next day, at the transportation array nearest to the Cyan Wind Mound. A divine light flashed out, producing a pale-looking Wei Suo.

“Senior!” Noticing Wei Suo appearing from the transportation array, the two Heaven’s First Sect disciples stationed here issued startled expressions, before offering their greetings.

Besides, although Wei Suo was masking a layer of cultivation with his Secret Concealment Art, he still exhibited a Heavenly Circuit stage level 2 cultivation; the spirit energy oppression seeping out of his body wasn’t one that mere Divine Sea stage cultivators could handle.

After acknowledging the two disciples and surging out of the mountain belly, Wei Suo couldn’t help but leak out a bleak smile.

Originally intending to stay over at Moonfall City for only a day, the difficulty of gathering Earth Furnace construction materials had exceeded his estimations.

According to the Old Man, the materials should be staple goods. Yet when Wei Suo got down to business, he discovered this was not the case. Probably due to the quantity of demonic beasts increasing within the Heavenly Dome over the years since 20,000 years ago, most cultivators earn spiritual stones through hunting demonic beasts. Cultivators that relied on forging artifacts or concocting pellets were relatively lesser as compared to 20,000 years ago. Moreover, many sects would provide facilities of Earth Furnace. As such, the materials required to construct an Earth Furnace room became more sparse as compared to the Old Man’s recollection.

In the end, Wei Suo resorted to spending an additional 3,000 low grade spiritual stones to buy over construction materials that someone else had pre-booked. If he were to order a new batch of construction materials, it would minimally require more than a month. Following that, Wei Suo casually surveyed around, before discovering that even Seven Stars City may not possess the necessities needed to construct a new Earth Furnace.

Yet even with the added cost of 3,000 low grade spiritual stones, Wei Suo still overshot his estimations by half a day.

After exiting the transportation array, Wei Suo leisurely toured the Cyan Wind Mound and located a place to rest for half a day.

The reason for this was due to Wei Suo’s apprehension over others tailing himself. Therefore, after passing through the long distance transportation array linking Moonfall City to Spirit Peak City, Wei Suo immediately shuttled through several other transportation arrays. Finally, he arrived here with extreme discomfort.

Moreover, from the maps, Wei Suo had determined the location of his cavern abode to be outside of the Heavenly Dome.

Once out of the Heavenly Dome, he could meet with high level demonic beasts at anytime. As such, maintaining his optimum state was essential.

Of the two maps detailing lands beyond the Heavenly Dome, one depicted Mount Mang that was 5,000 li south of the Heavenly Dome. Duanlong Cliff that Wei Suo wanted to explore was also included within that map. As for the other map, it inclined towards the east, stretching 3,000 li towards the White Bullock Wasteland.

For various unknown reasons, the maps were drafted by small squads of cultivators who ventured to Mount Mang and the White Bullock Wasteland. Although those squads of cultivators had travelled through such remarkably long distances, they didn’t deviate too much from their routes or explored deeper into lateral sides. At most, they deviated for 100-200 li. As a result, both maps took on the appearance of a narrow and long strip, revealing that of an extended pathway.

Nevertheless, the maps offered great significance to Wei Suo. Firstly, it provided countless of warnings, and even drafted a relatively safer passageway right from the start; evading away from certain demonic beasts congregating spots. Perhaps, for cultivators interested in hunting demonic beasts, they could also decipher places to hunt demonic beasts from this map.

Moreover, the maps revealed a palpitating warning, that level 6 and even level 7 demonic beasts could be seen anywhere.

Initially, Wei Suo planned to locate this cavern abode along the journey to Duanlong Cliff. But after analyzing the two maps for half a day, he decided to do establish it at a place called Lil’Night Mountain; along the journey towards the White Bullock Wasteland.

The reason for that was because Wei Suo didn’t wish to position his cavern abode too close to the Heavenly Dome. In this manner, it wouldn’t be easily discovered by other cultivators. In the event of a major power desiring to deal with Wei Suo, it would be a nightmare in locating his cavern abode. Nevertheless, the distance similarly could not exceed 1,500 li. Otherwise, too much time would be wasted in rushing back here even with transportation arrays. It would be a true inconvenience in the case of an emergency.

Within the region of 800 li to 1,500 li on the Duanlong Cliff map, Wei Suo couldn’t find any suitable spots. Mountains and forests that offered matchless concealment were also immeasurably dangerous. In contrast, the Lil’Night Mountain was only 900 li away from the Heavenly Dome. Not only was its terrain excellent, it was hailed as a congregating zone for a Mid-tier level 4 demonic beast known as Starry-eyes Lobster. In astronomical quantities, these demonic beasts posed immense deadliness even to other demonic beasts. As a result, the possibility of random other demonic beasts loitering the Lil’Night Mountain would be rather tiny. More importantly, these Starry-eyes Lobsters were similarly deaf and blind like the Scarlet-wing Flame Devil. They relied on sensing out one’s aura. Thus, to Wei Suo who possessed the Cyan Emperor Gourd, infringing onto the Lil’Night Mountain would be extremely safe. It would only be slightly troublesome to receive others into his abode.
