The four of them sat back on the deck of the flying ship. Master Pu Zi took the initiative to take out his treasured spiritual wine, and after toasting Mo Wuji, he said, "Dao Friend Mo, do you know why I was so excited when I saw this battleship?"
Without waiting for Mo Wuji to reply, Pu Zi continued, "Because this battleship was originally forged by me …"
Mo Wuji stared at Master Pu Zi in shock. He had obtained this battleship from a ghost cultivator in the Sky Sea. Speaking of which, this was completely unrelated to the Half Immortal Domain, so how did it become Master Pu Zi's doing?
"To be precise, I participated in the crafting of this warship. Back then, Master Jiang Ye was in charge of the refinement of this battleship. Master Jiang Ye's refining skills were much better than mine. From the design to the refinement of this battleship, most of the work was done by Master Jiang Ye. The other eight people and I were only assistants … "
"Master Pu Zi, you said that ten people are needed to forge this battleship? Who started this? "Mo Wuji asked in surprise.
Mo Wuji was very clear about Master Pu Zi's smithing skills. It was the best of the best, at least in Zhen Xing, there was no other expert like him. If Master Pu Zi was only an assistant, how strong would Jiang Ye be? How strong was the expert who initiated the creation of this battleship?
"The person who initiated the forging of this battleship was the Dao Lord of Half Immortal Domain. However, it wasn't the current Guang Quan, but someone else. This battleship was forged to deal with the Immortal Chasm … "
At this point, Master Pu Zi waved his hand, indicating for Jia Qi not to ask any more questions. He would explain everything slowly.
"Before talking about the Immortal Chasm, I need to talk about the Half Immortal Domain. Of course, I do not know how the Half Immortal Domain came to be. I only know that after I broke the void, I was already in the Half Immortal Domain, but this is not the Immortal Realm. Back then, the Dao Lord of Half Immortal Domain was called Wu You. I can say that ever since I started cultivating, I have never seen an expert like Wu You. I saw him fight a Heavenly Immortal Realm expert with my own two eyes, and he even killed that Heavenly Immortal Realm expert in the end … "
Jia Qi could not help but ask, "Master Pu Zi, Heavenly Immortals are considered true immortals right? If we didn't come to the Half Immortal Domain after breaking through the void, would we still be Heavenly Immortals? "
Master Pu Zi shook his head, "Logically speaking, Heavenly Immortals are indeed considered immortals. However, I heard from Senior Wu You that Heavenly Immortals are still a type of fake immortal, and cannot be considered as true immortals."
"Then how can one be considered a real immortal?" Mo Wuji could not help but ask. He entered the Half Immortal Domain because he entered the Void Shattering Rainbow. In the Half Immortal Domain, most of the cultivators he met were in the Great Circle of the Earthly Immortal Stage, and they weren't truly existences that surpassed the Earthly Immortal Stage.
Master Pu Zi sighed and said, "The Void Shattering Rainbow Glow that we experienced actually had some problems. Logically speaking, there should be a Heavenly Immortal Lightning Tribulation after the Shattering Void Stage, but in reality, when we arrived at the Half Immortal Domain after the Shattering Void Stage, there wasn't any Heavenly Immortal Lightning Tribulation. Apart from a very small number of geniuses amongst geniuses who would face their Lightning Tribulations here and advance into the Heavenly Immortal Realm, most of the people could only live in this place. Back then, Dao Lord Wu deduced that the Half Immortal Domain was merely a cage used by those fake immortals to obstruct cultivators from breaking into the Pseudo Immortal World. As for what constitutes a true Immortal, neither I nor Path Master Wu You knows. "
When Mo Wuji heard this, he actually felt that Wu You's thoughts were somewhat similar to his. This was because the Half Moon Prison made him very suspicious of the Half Immortal Domain.
"Master Pu Zi, you said that there were still a small number of geniuses who would attract their Lightning Tribulations. Do you know where these cultivators who attracted their Lightning Tribulations went to?" Jia Qi had already told Mo Wuji this question, but Mo Wuji still brought it up to ask Master Pu Zi. It wasn't that he didn't believe Jia Qi, but Master Pu Zi definitely knew more details.
Master Pu Zi answered, "These geniuses were all taken away by people from the Immortal World. Dao Lord Wu once said that these people were likely to be nurtured by those fake immortals. Another possibility was that the Immortal World had imprisoned these people. As for why the cultivators from the Immortal World did this, Dao Lord Wu was also unable to understand the reason behind it. He could only guess that those immortals were not considered True Immortals. "
Mo Wuji could not help but admire this Dao Lord Wu, who he had never met before. This person was too impressive, it was as though he had seen it with his own eyes. It didn't matter if they were True Immortals or False Immortals. In reality, these cultivators who had undergone their Lightning Tribulations to advance to the Heavenly Immortal Stage were all imprisoned in prisons. The Half Moon Prison was the best example.
Mo Wuji suddenly thought that the Half Moon Prison was merely one of the 11 prisons of Yong Ying. If this prison was able to imprison so many genius cultivators, did this mean that there were many other places like the Half Immortal Domain, where the genius cultivators were taken away by the Immortal World and imprisoned?
"Master Pu Zi, may I ask where Dao Lord Wu You went?" Mo Wuji couldn't help but ask in admiration of Wu You.
Master Pu Zi's eyes dimmed as he said, "Because the battleship that was being forged was the crux of whether the cultivators of the Half Immortal Domain could cross the Immortal Chasm, Dao Lord Wu led a group of smiths to perfect the battleship day and night. And at this time, the news was leaked, and the people from the Immortal World rushed to the Half Immortal Domain. "
"Why is Master fine?" Mo Wuji was very confused. Since the people from the Immortal World had come, then Master Pu Zi should not have been able to escape.
A hint of sadness appeared in Master Pu Zi's eyes, "Back when I was forging the battleship, I realised the principle of storing blackstone. I told this news to Dao Lord Wu, and Dao Lord Wu felt that this was a huge matter, so he asked me to specialise in researching the storage ring used to store blackstone.
After I finished researching the storage ring, I heard that Dao Lord Wu had disappeared, along with Jiang Ye and the other smiths. Even though I wasn't at the scene of the battle, I could guess that Dao Lord Wu must have died in the battle with Jiang Ye and the other smiths. As for the disappearance, it was just a lie. "
Mo Wuji suddenly thought of that ghost cultivator. Could that ghost cultivator be one of the smiths that were forging the battleship? How did that fella leave the Half Immortal Domain?
Master Pu Zi was very sad, and he went silent as he spoke to this point. Mo Wuji and co. did not disturb him. After an incense's time, Master Pu Zi continued, "That incomplete battleship disappeared, which meant that the cultivators of the Half Immortal Domain no longer had the chance to cross the Immortal Chasm. The Immortal Chasm is a huge chasm between the Half Immortal Domain and the Immortal World. Because this chasm prevents any cultivators from the Half Immortal Domain from entering the Immortal World, we call it the Immortal Chasm. "
"How exactly did it stop them?" Mo Wuji was definitely not willing to stay in the Half Immortal Domain, so he had to get to the bottom of this. Even if he couldn't return to Zhen Xing, he had to think of a way to visit the Immortal World. As for whether it was the True Immortal World or the Fake Immortal World, he would find out when he got there.
Master Pu Zi took out a crystal ball and said, "Take a look and you'll know."
With that, he activated the crystal ball in his hand.
A vast and boundless chasm appeared in front of them. It was like a bottomless chasm, and one could not see the other side clearly. It seemed to have split the universe into two.
Within this huge chasm, black fog lingered, and some indistinguishable things could be seen moving about. It seemed to be densely packed, but at the same time, it seemed like there was nothing there.
Even though it was just a crystal image, Mo Wuji felt his scalp go numb. That kind of threat was hard to explain.
Master Pu Zi pointed at the huge chasm and said, "This is the Immortal Chasm. No flying ship can pass through this place. Because here, you can't use your spiritual will, and you can't use your elemental energy. As long as you fall into the chasm, only death awaits you. Fall to your death. No, you might not fall to your death, but you won't even have any bones left. "
As he said this, Master Pu Zi laughed self-deprecatingly, "Perhaps a cultivator falling to his death after reaching the Earthly Immortal Stage sounds like a joke, but in reality, it's not a joke at all. With the arrival of the Half Immortal Domain, the number of cultivators falling to their deaths in the Immortal Chasm is uncountable. And these are just the dangers on the surface. The true dangers in the Immortal Chasm are the five elemental immortal beasts and the Vermillion Jade Venomous Bug … "
No one spoke. Mo Wuji stared intently at the scene in Master Pu Zi's crystal ball, and listened to Master Pu Zi's description of the Immortal Chasm. In this Immortal Chasm, one could not use their spiritual will, or elemental energy. It was similar to the space canyon that he was previously trapped in.
"The five elemental immortal beasts are the metal-type Sword Dragon, water-type Gui Water Spider, earth-type Void Toad, fire-type Yin Fire Centipede, wood-type Colourless Leech …"
"Colourless Leech? Could it be those things in the Mining Area of Death? "Mo Wuji asked.
Master Pu Zi shook his head, "You can say yes, but you can also say no. The Colourless Leech in the Mining Area of Death is the lowest grade of Colourless Leech. Even though spiritual will is hard to detect, it can still be detected. On the other hand, the Colourless Leech in the Immortal Chasm is truly colourless, and even spiritual will cannot detect it. The moment it comes into contact with a human body, it's like a maggot in the tarsal bone, and you can't get rid of it until you die. "
Mo Wuji nodded his head. He finally understood why the battleship had so many cannons. So it was to deal with the five elemental immortal beasts and the Vermillion Jade Venomous Worms.
"And these can't even compare to the Vermillion Jade Venomous Worms. That Vermillion Jade Venomous Worm is enough to make one's scalp go numb. You guys probably haven't realised, but this black colour is not mist, but Vermillion Jade Venomous Worms. "Master Pu Zi pointed to the image in the crystal ball.
If not for Master Pu Zi pointing it out, Mo Wuji and co. would not have realised it. Now that Master Pu Zi pointed it out, Mo Wuji and co. immediately realised what was going on. The black mist was actually densely packed with worms, and it looked extremely disgusting.
"How are these immortal beasts? They should be called poisonous beasts. "Lou Chuanhe sighed.
Master Pu Zi answered, "We do call these things poisonous worms. As for immortal beasts, that's what people on the other side of the Immortal Chasm call them."
"The Immortal World is on the other side of the Immortal Chasm?" Mo Wuji asked as he sighed in his heart. He was too insensible back then, to actually waste so many of these cannons.
