Path to Heaven Chapter 188 – Ninesongs Yellow Wind Formation

Chapter 188: Ninesongs Yellow Wind Formation

Wei Suo channeled in his true energy, as his Cyan Search Silver Magic Staff emitted a silverish radiance. An originally crude and simple looking silver short staff was now glittering splendidly. Embedded in it, a circular green crystal was issuing out pulses of greenish leafy brilliance, and finally coated Wei Suo’s body with a green light screen.

When this green light screen formed, Wei Suo gestured for Zhen Chongming to s.h.i.+ft the set artifact s.h.i.+elds blocking the light screen aside.

When 5-6 artifact s.h.i.+elds were s.h.i.+fted open leaving a gap in between, one could observe a dense ma.s.s of Black Drillworms forming into a black pillar before charging in frenziedly.

PA! PA! A gigantic golden electric serpent was conjured out from Wei Suo. Indeed, it was the last form of his Golden Serpent Thunder Technique, the ‘Chaotic Dance of the Golden Serpents’. Crackling clamorously into form, this gigantic golden serpent a.s.similated into the light screen and shockingly dispersed into countless tiny strands of lightning. The lightnings slithered out in all directions.

The ‘Chaotic Dance of the Golden Serpents’ was actually a skill technique with a scope of 30 metres. Yet upon contact with that peculiar green light screen, the skill filtered and covered at least over 60 metres with a lightning storm. Tiny lightning needles pierced in, and were impossible for those sky-toppling Black Drillworms to dodge.

As it turned out, after Wei Suo had tested the magic pearl of the Elder Mind Devouring Bug, he suddenly recalled something. Previously, back when he and the old man were scavenging for garbage, they purchased a Greenleaf Magic Pearl. Since his Cyan Search Silver Magic Staff had four empty slots, Wei Suo embedded that Greenleaf Magic Pearl onto it as well.

This Greenleaf Magic Pearl had no property but to create a damage sputtering effect for offensive skills.

The rapid speed of those Black Drillworms made it so that ordinary skill techniques or artifacts couldn’t hit them. However, with a thick blanket of lightning descending, the front wave of Black Drillworms were instantly electrocuted and paralyzed; causing the backwave to clash against them and create a tremendous upheaval.

Following that, Han Weiwei activated an Ice Rain Talisman. In addition to Zhu Xiaochun’s usage of the White Cold Jade Plate, fogs of icy aura enshrouded the Black Drillworms and froze their bodies rigid.

Without hesitating, Wei Suo repeatedly activated the Rus.h.i.+ng Thunder Mallet, as a large conjured lightning sledgehammer started hammering furiously away.

With every hammer, a patch of Black Drillworms would drop like burnt crumbs.

Fortunately, the attacking pattern of his Rus.h.i.+ng Thunder Mallet was conjuring up lightning and not using its physical self. Thus, he didn’t have to worry about it spoiling. Moreover, it was a sufficiently powerful artifact. Either that, or Wei Suo resorted to his Six-Suns Divine Firefork.

At present, even though they were creating such a ma.s.sive commotion, yet not a single Blood Dragon was enticed out.

This situation finally allowed Wei Suo to heave a sigh of relief. He continued unleas.h.i.+ng everything, even his Dark-Yin Artifact Robe.

“Big brother, what’s going on with you?”

As it turned out, the dumbfounded Zhu Xiaochun was spectating as Wei Suo’s ordinary cyan artifact robe was being ripped apart. He couldn’t digest this in his mind, ‘Could it be that this fight aroused Big Brother’s excitement that much, that he actually wants to go into battle bare-breasted?’

Instead, another artifact robe emerged beneath the torn strands of the cyan robe. Moreover, blades of Yin aura were slicing out, as though over a hundred deadly wind blades were unleashed from that artifact robe.

“Eiyy??!” At this moment, Han Weiwei couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Wei Suo, weren’t you wearing that bra?”

“….” Wei Suo was utterly speechless and focused on releasing those yin wind blades instead.

With the four of them attacking in unison, the swarm of Black Drillworms continued falling in groups.

After sweeping through with his divine sense, Wei Suo regained a pleasant countenance.

Clearly, no other formidable demonic beasts were in the vicinity. While the Black Drillworms poured in endlessly like a scourge of death to all, they didn’t possess particular high intellect. With Wei Suo allowing Zhen Chongming to open up gaps between artifact s.h.i.+elds, the Black Drillworms successively dove in and smashed in with their heads. As a result, the overall pressure on all the artifact s.h.i.+elds became substantially reduced.

Furthermore, Wei Suo’s ‘Chaotic Dance of the Golden Serpents’ technique and Han Weiwei’s ‘Ice Dragon True Technique’ were both large area restraining skill techniques. They didn’t have to worry even after expanding all skill talismans. Most importantly, Wei Suo still had loads of True Recovery Pellets at his disposal, which could allow him to sustain for even two more days.

“Wei Suo, it’s strange. These sky-toppling Black Drillworms seems to be intentionally bred herein. This desert of grey sand should be an environment suited for the growth of these Black Drillworms.” At this moment, the green gowned Old Man suspiciously issued.

Wei Suo nodded quietly. He didn’t dare to slacken or pause his unleas.h.i.+ng of skills.

This legion of Black Drillworms truly possessed frightening numbers. After a good 6 hours, they probably killed tens of thousands of Black Drillworms. Thick layers of Black Drillworm carcarsses piled up over the grey desert. Soon, the buzzing Black Drillworms appeared increasingly spa.r.s.e, where seemingly 1-2 incense worth of time should be sufficient to wipe them out.

Yet at this moment, Wei Suo stroked his chin as though he had abruptly recalled something. Following that, he handed over his Rus.h.i.+ng Thunder Mallet to Han Weiwei, while he retrieved several ruby like objects from his Treasure Receiving Pocket.

Indeed, these were the carapace sh.e.l.ls of those Firefeast Gem Lizards he used for forging those artifact s.h.i.+elds.

He then released a regiment of Xiantian True flames. After regulating its firepower, Wei Suo controlled the Xiantian True flames to wrap around several chunks of these ruby like sh.e.l.ls, and melted them into a clump of sparkling translucent red liquid.

Don’t even talk about the two simple-minded dimwits, Zhu Xiaochun or Zhen Chongming. Even Han Weiwei couldn’t tell what Wei Suo was up to.

Under his control, the sparkling red liquid was pulled into a large biscuit shape. Then, Wei Suo instructed Zhen Chongming to close up the gaps between the artifact s.h.i.+elds.

In this manner, those Black Drillworms once again congregated into a dense black pillar to a.s.sault the s.h.i.+elds.

Following that, Wei Suo activated his ‘Chaotic Dance of the Golden Serpents’ again. Consecutively after electrifying and paralyzing the foremost pack of Black Drillworms, he used his Xiantian True flames to manipulate the large biscuit shaped red liquid and enveloped that entire pack of Black Drillworms.

Soon after, Wei Suo controlled the red liquid into a churning crystalline ball before it finally cooled down.

“Wei Suo, are you thinking of taking some Black Drillworms back to rear?” After witnessing Wei Suo’s actions, Han Weiwei finally reacted.

“I’m only thinking of utilizing this to experiment with artifacts.” Wei Suo chuckled and shook his head.

Regarding these level 4 demonic beasts, Wei Suo held no particular interest at all. Furthermore, he didn’t even know the method of nurturing Black Drillworms.

The reason for doing this, was merely to test the fort.i.tude of the Firefeast Gem Lizard’s sh.e.l.l; how long it could withstand these Black Drillworms. By controlling the thickness of the ruby crystal ball, he could also accurately pinpoint the duration these Black Drillworms needed to break free.

As such, he could sneakily use such a crystal ball to deal with other cultivators.

When a cultivator curiously picks up the crystal ball to examine, they wouldn’t be able to see anything until a sudden swarm of Black Drillworms explodes out in their faces. Under such close proximity, even a Thought Division Stage level 2-3 would not be able to react in time.

Apart from such a usage, one could also employ these ruby b.a.l.l.s as artifact weapons. When the opponent shatters the ruby ball with an artifact, a ma.s.sive swarm of Black Drillworms would abruptly buzz out. As such, if the opponent uses an essence metal type artifact weapon, it would be completely ruined.

“This brat, he can even think of such things….” Upon hearing Wei Suo’s explanation, Han Weiwei couldn’t help but shudder.

Besides, after Wei Suo melted the Firefeast Gem Lizard sh.e.l.l with his Xiantian True flames, the solidified product wasn’t at all different looking from an ordinary precious ruby. A cultivator that doesn’t practice artificing definitely would find it hard to identify the crystal ball. As for cultivator artificers, they absolutely wouldn’t be able to tell there was a horde of Black Drillworm stored within.

After sending his divine sense in for a careful examination, Wei Suo affirmed in his heart.

After those Black Drillworms were squeezed inside the ruby ball, they no longer possessed any charging momentum; as such, their devouring might towards the sh.e.l.l decreased substantially. It would probably take 2 and a half to 3 days for them to break free.

After confirming this, Wei Suo promptly stored that ruby ball of Black Drillworms. Then, he fished up more Firefeast Gem Lizard sh.e.l.ls and started drawing around.

After expending his remaining dozen plus sh.e.l.ls, Wei Suo managed to ama.s.s a total of 16 ruby b.a.l.l.s.

Following that, not even half an incense worth of time later, all surrounding Black Drillworms were eradicated.

Wei Suo then piloted the White Jade Crane as he led his gang to examine the nearest stone pillar.

The stone pillar was riddled with countless holes, and essentially resembled a tremendous pillar-shaped beehive. It emitted a heat that was clearly denser than the grey sand of the desert; issuing a sensation quite similar to an Earth Furnace, as though it touched with the Earth Flame veins beneath the ground.

Wei Suo really wished he could dissect this stone pillar for a look. Yet with even the Old Man unsure of its mysteries, Wei Suo hesitated for a long while before deciding not to; thereby forcibly quelling his thriving curiosity.

Next, the group proceeded cautiously and slowly towards the east.

Along the way, they sighted at least over a hundred of such stone pillars. These pillars were dispersed over the valley, and faintly appeared like a loop. It seemed that no matter which direction one entered this valley from, it would be impossible to evade the sheer terrifying ma.s.s of Black Drillworms.

After flying for a while, the stone forest which the Old Man mentioned finally surfaced in Wei Suo’s line of sight.

The stone pillars inside this stone forest didn’t appear vastly different from the stone pillars outside. Thus, Wei Suo was exceedingly suspicious; fearing that if they approached, a large swarm of Black Drillworms would surge out again.

“What!”

However, in roughly a 5 km radius outside of this stone forest, waves of yellowish fog and a howling gale abruptly swept out without warning. Such a phenomena prevented the naked eyes from viewing the place clearly, and even blocked off one’s divine sense.

“This is a formation array!”

Wei Suo and Han Weiwei’s expression instantly changed. Simultaneously, the old man’s austere voice ran in Wei Suo’s ears.

“This is the Ninesongs Yellow Wind formation. Don’t move for now, otherwise, once you lose your direction, even I may not be able to get you out of this.”
