Path to Heaven

Edited by: Fumma, Earl

Wei Suo slightly skimmed through the context of the Incomplete Beasts Slaving Booklet. After that, he began to borrow the cyan light emitted by the Cyan Emperor Gourd and started to examine the underground tomb’s map.

On the sheepskin map, the underground tomb was separated into two sections: Qian (Heaven) and Kun (Earth). The thing that separated the two sections was the deep abyss beyond the stone bridge that Wei Suo had just passed.

Looking at the map, the entire abyss was circular like a moat. There was a total of eighteen such bridges like the one that Wei Suo had passed earlier that connected the internal Qian Palace with the external Kun Palace. However, based on the marks on the map, it seemed that ten among the eighteen stone bridges have been completely collapsed. Only those who knew how to fly would be able to fly through the abyss. It was impossible for a low level cultivator like Wei Suo who was only able to soar several tens of feet into the sky using the Wind Cloud Shoes to leap over the long distance abyss.

The areas on the map that contained an approximate topography of the regions was only about a third of the underground tomb. The remaining two thirds seemed to be places that not even the yellow gowned cultivator’s group had explored. However, merely the sections of the map that contained an approximate topography was already at a size comparable to the Spirit Peak City.

Had Wei Suo not purchased the high quality goods Wind Cloud Shoes which caused his running speed to be several times faster than before, it would likely take him half a day to go from one side of the tomb to the other side in a straight manner without stopping.

The closest location on the map that Mind Devouring Bugs frequently appear in from Wei Suo’s current location was a place with the name Blacksmith Valley. It seemed that the owner of this underground tomb was a large kingdom’s emperor. Furthermore, this emperor seemed to have believed in there being an underworld after death. When he was constructing this underground tomb, it seemed that he believed that he would have to go and lead an army and establish a kingdom in the underground. Thus, in this underground tomb, not only was there a large amount of burial grounds where many soldiers and horses were buried, this emperor had also buried alongside him a lot of artisans for his death. The Blacksmith Valley was the location where he had set up for these artisans to create weapons for him. Right below the Blacksmith Valley was a Profound Iron mine. Above the Profound Iron mine was a ravine. Within the ravine were many smelting furnaces.

[TL: In ancient china, when kings/emperors/lords/princes/rich people die, they would sometimes kill many/all of their servants/concubines and have them buried alongside them so as to serve them in the underworld.]

Judging from the map, the ravine had been collapsed beyond recognition. The terrain at that location was extremely complicated.

Wei Suo felt that since the people from the Iron Policy had come to this underground tomb for the purpose of the Mind Devouring Bug, it was likely that he would run into people from the Iron Policy in the surrounding areas.

Right at the moment when Wei Suo clenched his teeth and decided to check out that location, a muffled sound of skill techniques being used once again sounded throughout the entire Cyan Wind Mound. Furthermore, the sound this time appeared to be a lot fiercer compared to the other times before.

Wei Suo’s expression slightly changed. He stopped and began to check the map to determine the location where the sound originated from. The sound seemed to have originated from his left side. According to the map, it was a place called the East Empress Tomb.

That East Empress Tomb seemed to be a tomb chamber of an imperial concubine. Judging from the map, it seemed that in the palace-like tomb chamber was a large stone coffin.

Wei Suo carefully inspected the map of his surroundings again. After that, he put the map away. Like a bat, Wei Suo was rushing through the underground maze in the direction of the East Empress Tomb without making traces of sound.

Wei Suo suddenly stopped at a square shaped tomb chamber about five to six miles(li*) from the East Empress Tomb. That was because the sound of skill techniques being used had been completely gone from the East Empress Tomb’s direction.

[TL: I don’t know if I remembered to mention, by mile I meant chinese mile (li). A chinese mile is about ⅓ of an american mile and is equal to 500 meters.]

“Someone’s coming from ahead.”

At practically the same time, the green gowned old man’s warning sounded in Wei Suo’s ears.

Wei Suo gazed at his surroundings. He saw that there wasn’t any location where he could hide in his surrounding so he immediately withdrew himself back. Right after Wei Suo retreated out of this passageway and hid himself behind the shadows of a collapsed stone state beside the entrance, the sound of air being burst open sounded out from the passageway.

A yellow clothed young woman with wonderful features leaped out from the passageway with a pale face while drenched in sweat. Immediately after, a scarlet robed full bearded middle aged tall and robust man also rushed out from the passageway chasing after her.

Neither of them had discovered Wei Suo who was hiding at the corner. Although one was chasing the other, the yellow clothed young woman’s speed was greatly inferior to that of the full bearded middle aged man. Soon, she would be overtaken by him.

Seeing that she cannot escape from the cultivator behind her, the yellow clothed young woman who appeared to be very beautiful clenched her teeth and stopped. She waved her hand and a five colored butterfly-like artifact turned into a five-colored light. With a whoosh, it was shot toward the the full bearded cultivator who had been growing closer to her. At the same time, this fair-skinned oval faced young woman immediately cast a technique talisman and created a cream colored light cover behind her.

“Your sister!”

The full bearded cultivator shouted and then waved his hand nonchalantly. A cold light flashed. A large machete that flickered with cold lights appeared before him. He slashed downward. The butterfly-like artifact that the yellow clothed young woman cast was hacked into two and fell to the ground like a true butterfly.

“Holy fuck!” Wei Suo was nearly choked by his saliva. It was the first time that he saw someone using an artifact that appeared like an ordinary machete. However, judging from the strike, this extremely ordinary looking machete that was floating before this full bearded cultivator was at the very least a half Spirit level artifact.

Before Wei Suo could use his Aura Determining Technique to determine the martial prowess of this full bearded cultivator, the full bearded cultivator shouted in a loud voice. “Your sister! With merely your skill, you think you can still stubbornly defy me? Even those who are stronger than you have been killed by your daddy, I. You’d best obediently lay down your weapon and surrender.”

The full bearded cultivator’s voice was extremely boorish. Furthermore, his speech contained with it a dialect of the people from the northern region of the Heavenly Profound Continent.

Wei Suo felt that this full bearded cultivator who was bullying a woman, cannot possibly be a good person. Merely, due to the fact that he doesn’t know what was going on, it was also bad for him to rashly act. Thus, he only secretly checked out the two people with his Aura Determining Technique.

The scarlet robed full bearded cultivator and the yellow clothed young woman were actually both level five Divine Sea Stage cultivators. Merely, the shine of the yellow clothed young woman’s Divine Seas was obviously much duller than the scarlet robed full bearded man. It was clear that the martial technique that the full bearded man trained in was many levels above that of the yellow clothed young woman’s. Furthermore, it seemed that the yellow clothed young woman did not possess any artifact that could match up against the full beard’s machete.

“Who exactly are you all? How dare you sneak attack us from the Iron Policy. Could it be that you do not fear that our people from the Iron Policy will come and chase to kill you all?” The yellow clothed young woman took out an unknown technique talisman and held it in her hand. She did not dare to use it. Instead, she asked the full bearded man with a shaking voice.

“This big bearded guy is indeed someone with the yellow clothed scholarly guy.” At this moment, Wei Suo had managed to figure out from the conversation.

The full bearded man used his extremely thick northern dialect and said, “Your sister. Lil’ beauty, I see that you look pretty clever. So why is it that your words are that stupid? From today on, the Iron Policy would disappear from the cultivation world. Yet, you’re trying to use the Iron Policy to scare me, Three Rounds Liu? You’d better obediently surrender now. Look at you, with your fair skin and beautiful face. If you were to obediently surrender to your daddy, I, and comfort me for three rounds here, then not only would your daddy, I, not kill you, I’ll give you some benefits instead. How about that?”

“Comfort for three rounds here? Holy fuck, this guy is truly a pervert!” Once Wei Suo heard what the full bearded man said, his eyes became opened extremely wide. Clenching the Five Elements Brass Ring and the Dark Demon Blade, Wei Suo felt like teaching this full beard a lesson.

To Wei Suo’s surprise, the pale faced yellow clothed young woman hesitated for a moment before clenching her teeth. She then laughed mischievously and said to the full bearded cultivator who referred himself to Three Rounds Liu. “As long as I do that, big brother, will you truly let me live?”

“Your sister, quickly, strip those clothes. Do as I say, stick out wherever I ask you to. What’s with this and that. As long as you act obedient, how could I, Three Rounds Liu, be willing to kill you?” Said Three Rounds Liu in an extremely vulgar manner.

“Holy fuck, are you kidding? She’s truly willing to do that to survive?”

Wei Suo was dumbstruck by the fact that the yellow clothed young woman across from the full bearded cultivator, in order to survive at this crucial moment, was actually really stripping off her clothes one by one.

In merely a short moment, this yellow clothed young woman had taken off all of her clothes. Her white, smooth and soft boobs and a mysterious black color underneath her belly were all exposed before Wei Suo and the full beard’s eyes.

Facing this sort of woman, Wei Suo became unhurried to act.

After all, if he was to wait for the full bearded cultivator to start his battlefield operation, the success rate of him killing the full beard would be even higher.

The full bearded cultivator seemed to be extremely satisfied with the yellow clothed young woman’s figure. “Your sister, remove this light cover of yours. Also, turn around for me. Lay on that large piece of stone over there and face your butt toward me.”

The yellow clothed young woman who had completely disregarded shame turned around in an extremely obedient manner. She placed her two hands on the large piece of stone that the full bearded cultivator mentioned and made a posture that caused Wei Suo’s blood to pump a lot stronger.

It was likely that even the green gowned old man was stupefied by what was happening as he had become speechless.

Full beard laughed loudly. He then walked towards the yellow clothed young woman who stood there like a white sheep.

Right at the moment when this guy was about to desire his lust, when this Three Rounds Liu had only walked a couple steps, he suddenly stopped and pointed his finger forward. His machete was suddenly shot forward. It actually hacked down on the naked body of this young woman. Before the young woman could scream, she fell to the ground with a shocked expression and wide open eyes.

“Your sister. Just because your daddy, I, said that, you actually believed it? Did you truly think that I was going to do you for three rounds? Did you know that your daddy, I, hated women the most and only like men?”

Immediately after the full beard killed the young woman, he displayed a disgusted expression. After that, he held his thumb and middle finger together while extending the rest of his fingers and disdainfully humphed.

“Your sister, who is it that’s sneakily trying to sneak attack me?!”

Suddenly, the full beard shouted. His large machete was violently hacked down. A loud bang was heard. A large spark exploded. His large machete hacked down upon a bucket-sized brass ring that came down at him from above. A thick crack appeared on the brass ring.

“Holy fuck!”

Wei Suo did not expect that this full beard was not only crazy, his reaction speed was also extremely crazy. At the same time a layer of cold sweat appeared on Wei Suo’s forehead, a whiz was heard. He had immediately shot out the Dark Demon Blade. Over a dozen black skeletons and a black light followed a black wind that appeared out of nowhere and charged towards the full bearded cultivator.
