”Yes, what we call the Immortal World is on that side. Whether it’s real, no one has really seen it to make that judgement.” Master Pu Zi replied.
”Master Pu Zi, it should have been a snitch that leaked the news of Dao Lord Wu You forging a battleship in preparation to cross the Immortal Chasm to the people from the Immortal World right? Also, is the Half Immortal Domain selling the blackstone that they purchase to the people from the Immortal World? Are those stone slags from the Immortal World? If it’s true, then I’m very confused. Why don’t those men from the Immortal World come to mine themselves?” Mo Wuji shot out many questions, finally linking all of the ideas together.
Looking in the direction of the Half Immortal Domain, Master Pu Zi sighed, ”My thoughts are exactly the same as yours. There’s probably a snitch. I suspect that the person that leaked the information is the current Dao Lord, Guang Quan, and the Immortal Seeking Union’s Union Head, Meng Tianyu.”
”Why? Do they not want to go to the Immortal World?” Jia Qi frowned as he asked.
Master Pu Zi chuckled coldly, ”How can we understand what’s going through the minds of these slaves. But I do know that there’s enmity between Guang Quan and Dao Lord Wu. This is because his dao companion was snatched away by and even died in the room of Dao Lord Wu.”
Mo Wuji was a little doubtful. Dao Lord Wu was the leader of Half Immortal Domain, and it seemed like he had a decent reputation. So how could such a person have ruined himself just for a woman?
”Could this just be a rumor?” Mo Wuji asked. Master Pu Zi shook his head, ”No, Dao Lord Wu did indeed forcibly take Guang Quan’s dao companion by force in front of many people. Subsequently, everyone was aware that Guang Quan’s dao companion died in Dao Lord Wu’s room.. Hence, this is not just a rumor.”
However, this did not dispel all of the suspicion in Mo Wuji’s heart, as he felt that this incident did not make logical sense.
Continuing on, Master Pu Zi spoke, ”The origins of these stone slags are indeed the Immortal World, and the blackstone is also bought by the Immortal World too. As for why people from the Immortal World don’t come to mine for blackstone on their own, it’s because even experts of Heavenly Immortal Stage and above will still have their spirit channels woodified by the acute wood energy when they come to dig for blackstone.”
”Aren’t there Wood Dissolving Pills?” Jia Qi asked curiously.
But Master Pu Zi responded with cold laughter once more, ”Wood Dissolving Pills can indeed negate acute wood energy, but it cannot completely remove all of the energy. The longer one stays in the Half Immortal Domain, the more obvious it is.”
Jia Qi’s expression changed for the worse, as she began to think about whether she had already been corrupted by the acute wood energy.
By reading his face, Master Pu Zi could infer what Jia Qi was thinking, and he added on, ”Jia Qi, you don’t have to worry. The most complex part of the battleship has already been completed. Once we are able to completely forge the battleship, we will have a chance to cross the Immortal Chasm and enter the Immortal World. The Immortal World is wide beyond measure, so who would find us if we hide in one corner? When we arrive there, I believe that there’s some way to remove the remaining acute wood energy. Moreover, now that we have Dao Friend Mo, there’s even less to worry about.”
The reason that Master Pu Zi only mentioned Mo Wuji after saying so much, was because he was worried that Mo Wuji would not help them. After all, they only had a working relationship with Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji nodded his head, ”Acute wood energy is nothing to me. Since we’re all partners now, there’s no need for everyone to worry about it. Let’s go to the Mining Area of Death and complete the battleship first.”
After listening to Master Pu Zi’s explanation, Mo Wuji felt that the path ahead was complex and dangerous. One moment of carelessness could cause him to be crushed to smithereens. No matter whether the other side was the Immortal World or a fake Immortal World, he would go to take a look first.
”So we’re still going to the Mining Area of Death?” Jia Qi asked inquisitively.
The answer from Mo Wuji was yes, ”If the Immortal Chasm is as what Master Pu Zi just described, we must all the more go to the Mining Area of Death. If we can’t even deal with the Colourless Leeches there, how would we face up against the Five Elemental Immortal Beasts in the Immortal Chasm?”
”I agree with Dao Friend Mo.” Master Pu Zi immediately replied.
”Master Pu Zi, I would like to find out about someone from you. His name is Lai Wanxing, and he's a pill refiner.” Mo Wuji was 60% sure that the metal affinity pill refiners that Lai Wanxing brought along were used for concocting Wood Dissolving Pills. Where could Wood Dissolving Pills be used? Wasn’t it only in the Half Immortal Domain?
Frowning, Master Pu Zi fell into deep thought, before finally shaking his head, ”I’ve never heard of this person.”
Mo Wuji sighed to himself. Without any news about Lai Wanxing, he probably would not be able to find anything about Mo Tiancheng for some time. But still, completing his battleship was of the highest priority at the moment, and these issues could wait till after he advanced to Earthly Immortal Stage.
”Have you heard of a cultivator named Ye Li then?”
The reason that Mo Wuji asked about Ye Li was due to Ye Li’s background. This was the information he obtained in the Half Moon Immortal Palace: Ye Li, wood affinity cultivator and a four star genius. On Yong Ying 844 Calendar, Year 7690, 3rd day of the 4th month, advanced to the Heavenly Immortal Stage, and entered the Yong Ying’s 11th Prison. Stubborn...
