Chapter 1168: Chapter 1168: The Burial Ground
Originally, the transition to another Small Opening should have been unobstructed, but for some reason, within this Dragon Cave Immortal Realm, the Mana was incredibly violent, as if it was rejecting the arrival of outsiders.
Such an obstacle was trivial for those whose power had reached the Hollowed Void Level, but for Su Chengyu, it proved somewhat difficult to manage.
"It must have been deliberately set up to filter out those who are qualified to enter that Cave Heaven, but no matter, I can still withstand it,"
The voice of the Heaven-Mending Stone resonated within Su Chengyu, drawing closer to the treasure site, the Heaven-Mending Stone once again became noticeably more active.
Although this fellow rarely spoke nonsense on ordinary days, it would become much more active at times like this.
Feeling the Heaven-Mending Stone share his burden, Su Chengyu let out a sigh of relief and took the opportunity to ask, "Little Shi, Aunt Ye is all right, isn’t she?"
"Minor issue, that Sword Momentum was developed, but after all, it was not unleashed, it was just overexertion, not a backlash caused by the Sword Momentum. She’ll recover after some rest over there."
Hearing what the Heaven-Mending Stone said, Su Chengyu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"However, that Sword indeed had formidable power, it seems to be her last resort. This kind of move, let alone at Nascent Soul Levels, even if she reached the Hollow Realm, she would still suffer from the backlash of that Sword."
Su Chengyu was slightly surprised, knowing that even when he used the second form of the Wasteland Sky Halberd, it wouldn’t backfire to this degree.
"Can you even compare with her? Although she can indeed fight at Hollowed Void Level, she doesn’t have a body-refining technique like the Thunder Resistant Technique. If you didn’t have the constitution of a Hollowed Void and forced the Wasteland Sky Halberd into action, would you die or not?"
Hearing this, Su Chengyu responded, "You also took a lot of pressure off me before, didn’t you?"
"It’s good that you know that, so now you know what to do during this trip to the Dragon Cave, right?"
On the journey to Dongying, the Heaven-Mending Stone had already garnered quite a few treasures. Apart from the Emperor’s Six Treasures having a special effect on Su Chengyu, Su Chengyu gave it not just Spiritual Artifacts, but even Divine Artifacts as well.
Now that Su Chengyu’s strength was steadily improving, he naturally hoped that the Heaven-Mending Stone could take a step further too.
The more he encountered strong opponents at the Hollowed Void Level, the more he realized that it was still too forced for him to deal with the Hollowed Void on his own.
However, the Heaven-Mending Stone was like a bottomless pit. Despite considerable investments, the Heaven-Mending Stone showed no signs of further progress. According to the stone itself, it still wouldn’t stand a chance against the Hollowed Void Realm.
"Everyone entering the Dragon Cave Immortal Realm is at the Hollowed Void Level, right?"
"You know that, so just keep your tail tucked and be modest, taking whatever you can get. Moreover, I always feel something is not quite right. That white light that attacked you earlier doesn’t seem like something a Hollowed Void Level person could use."
Even the Heaven-Mending Stone could not be fully aware of everything that happened in Su Chengyu’s Sea of Consciousness, but it still sensed from intuition that something was off about that white light.
"A Demon God?"
"Eight or nine out of ten. I previously investigated the Demon God lurking in Mount Fuji, but its condition is a bit strange, as if it is half asleep. At present, I don’t know the exact circumstances; you would do well to be cautious."
"Mm,"
Su Chengyu nodded and then looked down at Ye Qingci, who was still unconscious, noticing that Ye Qingci was recovering faster than he had expected.
Even though she had not taken any Elixir, her injuries were healing visibly fast.
Blood, meridians, and even the damaged Nascent Soul were autonomously reverting to optimal condition, with an efficiency far surpassing that of the Cultivation Techniques practiced by Su Chengyu.
No wonder it was the Ye Family’s ancestral special Cultivation Technique; just this self-healing ability alone was unparalleled by other techniques.
But thinking of Ye Qingci, who had spent over thirty years of Cultivation, Su Chengyu felt reconciled again.
Not to mention talent, even the sheer tedium, how many could endure it? At the very least, Su Chengyu lacked that confidence.
"Su Chengyu, the gate is about to open! Be careful!"
As the voice of the Heaven-Mending Stone fell, a powerful sense of spatial tearing came from all around.
Even though he was protected by the Five-Color Glow, Su Chengyu still felt an intense sensation.
Having reached the Nascent Soul level, he actually possessed the means to tear through space.
But that was all it amounted to—just tearing. The bodies and Divine Senses of Nascent Soul level cultivators were almost unable to withstand the destructive power released when space was rent apart.
This evidently intentional trial set within the passage to the Cave Heaven preserved the original oppressive feeling of spatial tearing.
While Su Chengyu’s fleshly body had reached the Hollow Realm, and it wasn’t difficult to resist this pressure, his Divine Sense still fell far short, and so at that moment, his head felt as if it would be burst apart by the pressure.
He tried to enter the Realm of Selflessness to relieve the pain, but found that in this state, he simply could not focus solely on the task at hand, forgetting everything else.
Enduring the pain, just as Su Chengyu was on the verge of collapsing into idiocy, light finally appeared before him, and he, along with Ye Qingci, fell directly onto the ground.
Yellow sand and white bones, cold winds bleak and desolate.
On the boundless desert, only a few huge bony pillars that shot up from the ground stood, with nothing else in existence.
Lost in shock at the scene before him, Su Chengyu had made guesses about what this treasure site of the Demon God might look like before arriving.
Would it be dazzlingly opulent, full of complex mechanisms, or even a place beyond this world? Numerous conjectures had crossed his mind.
But he had never considered that this Immortal Realm would turn out to be a desolate desert.
If he had not known in advance that something was hidden within this Cave Heaven, he would never believe that such a place could contain a treasure left by a Demon God.
Sensing the scenery outside, the Heaven-Mending Stone also felt somewhat agitated and said, "Does this look like a place where treasures are hidden? This... this is simply... simply..."
"A grave."
Su Chengyu suddenly spoke, then stood up and walked over to a protruding huge bone on the surface of the ground.
Gently touching the massive white bone, the Spiritual Energy that had once been stored within it had long since returned to the heavens and the earth with the passage of time, but Su Chengyu was still certain that this massive white bone was indeed a True Dragon Bone!
"It’s a shame the Spiritual Energy has already returned to the heavens and earth, otherwise this white bone alone would have been an extremely valuable material for crafting artifacts. It makes me wonder whether any other Dragon Bones might still retain some Spiritual Energy."
"Dream on, these bones have been weathered for at least a thousand years, maybe even ten thousand, and you’re still thinking about Spiritual Energy, it’s good enough that they haven’t turned into yellow sand."
"So these Dragon Bones are utterly worthless?"
Su Chengyu said with some regret.
"Not necessarily, they can still be used in medicine, after all, they are Dragon Bones. While their potency might be diminished, they can still elevate the quality of an Elixir by one level."
And upon hearing Heaven-Mending Stone’s words, Su Chengyu immediately perked up.
In his eyes, the numerous Dragon Bones buried in the yellow sand were no longer valueless remains, but rather copious amounts of top-quality Elixirs!
