Chapter 50- The Demon Eye of Annihilation

"Hmm."

After he was done resting for half a day, Su Mu decided to leave this Solitary Peak.

Walking outside the cave, his eyes fell on the several rows of stone shelves all with many layers, each layer holding different items.

"Most of them are just random things."

Taking a cloth out of his pocket, Su Mu unfolded it before placing whatever he thought was worth it into it.

And after he was done, more than half of the things were still on the stone shelves, as Su Mu knew that they had no value to him.

"Hmm, this Heaven Grade Low-Rank sword. Although it's a waste, improving it should be possible with enough materials."

Su Mu looked at the Asura Sect's Ancestral Artifact for a few seconds before tossing it with the things he planned on bringing along with him.

With all things in place, Su Mu picked up the sack of things before taking his leave.

Outside the Solitary Peak, several large insects were patiently waiting for him, and just as he appeared, they started swallowing the corrosive mist that was covering the place.

"Guide me to the humans you've captured while I was away. And while you're at it, hold this." Su Mu handed over the sack to one of the insects, and soon, they started guiding him towards their hideout.

"Young Master, I'll say we have wasted enough time in this place."

Yang Kai looked at the Old Demon with a stern expression.

Ever since he arrived at the island, he, along with most of the survivors from the Red Cloud Sect, was captured by the insects and placed into a prison-like location surrounded by corrosive mist, and it was designed in such a way that even a True Element Realm Cultivator couldn't fly over it.

The rules in this place were simple.

As long as no one causes trouble, the insects will let everyone be, but fighting amongst themselves was forbidden.

The Red Cloud Cultivators who tried to attack him were all killed by the insects.

Some of the Cultivators have already started to go insane and were coming up with things that'll make even a normal person go insane.

By this time, the original number of twenty cultivators had been cut short until only six of them remained, including Yang Kai.

And even then, everyone here was on an edge, and the deep smell of blood along with the corpses of their former comrades lying around only made their temperament worse.

Why were these insects keeping them here like livestock?

What were they after?

Will they ever make it back home?

Will they make it out alive, to begin with? Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only

Everyone around had similar thoughts, but all they could do is wait and cultivate in peace. Occasionally, some people would have a minor breakthrough while cultivating here, and the insects wouldn't bother them.

"And how do you say we leave this place? There are tens of thousands of insects roaming around this place and we can't even leave the corrosive mist. Being held here with those Red Cloud Sect Disciples doesn't help a lot." Yang Kai looked at Old Demon with a frown.

"Young Master, how about causing infighting between the Red Cloud Sect and using that to escape? You can dig your way out of this corrosive mist." Old Demon proposed. "As long as Young Master agrees, this Old Servant can drive the Red Cloud Sect Disciples into madness, having them attack each other with no remorse."

"Hmm." Yang Kai pondered. What Old Demon said was indeed a good suggestion, but even if he were to execute this plan, he still had no way of leaving this island.

But before he could reply to Old Demon's proposal, a disciple of the Red Cloud Sect shouted.

"The Mist! It's clearing up!"

Everyone, including Yang Kai, turned their attention towards the path that had been opened through the walls of mist.

"We can finally leave this damned place!"

"We can return to the Sect!"

"The Heavens still haven't abandoned us!"

All sorts of shouts came from that side, and maybe it was because of how long they'd been trapped here, but the Red Cloud Sect's Disciples have already forgotten that they had no way to leave this island even if they were to escape from the insects.

Yang Kai had a feeling in his heart that the thing insects have been waiting for had finally happened, and he could feel a slight uneasiness in his heart, but he didn't dwell on that feeling for too long, looking at the path with hope-filled eyes.

Su Mu watched as golden texts began appearing on the fifth page, followed by a Spirit Array.

[5. Medicine King Valley, Myriad Drug Pond.]

"Medicine King Valley?" Su Mu remembered that it was the place Meng Wuya was planning on taking Xia Ning Chang to.

He examined the Spirit Array for a few seconds before flipping the page.

This time, the first six pages removed themselves from the Black Book, merging into a small black box before setting down within the Black Book once again.

"An Independent Storage Space?" Looking at the Black Book, Su Mu was pleasantly surprised.

The only thing he currently lacked was a Space Ring to store his belongings into, but with this Black Book, his biggest inconvenience was solved within seconds.

Su Mu called the insect that was carrying his belongings before placing them all inside the Independent Storage Space provided by the Black Book.

After he was done, Su Mu checked the Storage Space using his Divine Sense, noticing that the Space inside was large enough to store a lot of things without any problems, which satisfied him.

After he was done checking the Storage Space, Su Mu started pouring his Divine Soul Strength into the Black Book, as that is what was required to unlock the Seal placed on the Seventh Page.

After a few hours, the Seal placed on the Seventh Page completely opened, revealing a Spirit Array.

When the complete Spirit Array was fully illuminated, a small vortex which seemed to have the ability to devour everything appeared and began to slowly rotate.

As this rotation became faster, something began to emerge from the page, which made Su Mu frown.

"This aura, there is no mistaking it..."

Su Mu calmly watched the object that had just appeared from inside the Seventh Page of the Black Book.

This thing was about the size of a small egg. It had two pointed ends and was rounded in the middle with a single flat edge, there were also many lines and patterns on its surface, somewhat like human veins but also resembling a complex tortoise shell pattern.

It resembled a closed eye.

Su Mu's Divine Sense approached the closed eye, and the moment it made contact with his Divine Sense, it disappeared.

Su Mu knew that it had entered his Soul in a way similar to the Soul Warming Lotus, and that had just confirmed his suspicions.

"To think it really is the Demon Eye of Annihilation."

The Strongest Divine Spirit Sources, the Heavenly Soul Warming Lotus, and the Secret Technique of one of the 36 Cave Heavens, which is also regarded as one of the best Eye Techniques within the Outer Universe.

Although it was nowhere near its true power, this Secret Technique could still be cultivated to its former might.

"Just how lucky was Yang Kai?"

That was all Su Mu could say about this situation.

A/N-

50 Chapters completed, yay.

A little over 200 chapters have been covered from the Original Novel.

I know this chapter is shorter than usual (2000 words), but I wanted to upload it before my online classes began (which start tomorrow, btw), so I wrote this in a hurry.

Thanks to that, the upload schedule will be messed up until 16 April, i.e. ten days.

Can't skip them or I might end up failing the year, which sucks, so I'll sacrifice some of my brain cells and study.

Yeah, that's all.

I will upload the fanfic whenever I have time within the next ten days. I'll be back after that.

I'll upload a Character sheet in the Auxiliary chapters. Apart from the Mc, should I add the Harem Members' Character Sheets, too?

Not doing it for the Servants, though, just the wives because I'm lazy.
