Chapter 485: The Immortal Abode Beneath the River of No Life
Mo Wuji coughed a few more times before saying, "It's nothing. I was ambushed by a thin needle from that guy. I'll force it out after we leave here."
"Alas, I implicated Brother Kou Yuan," Lou Chuanhe said with a somewhat dejected tone.
Mo Wuji saw Ku Ya returning and patted Lou Chuanhe, saying, "I will avenge Brother Kou Yuan. No matter how much that Lao Cai hides, he's still in Yongying Corner. It's not safe to stay here, let's leave now."
Mo Wuji sensed that the Life-Devouring Barb inside his body was very strong. Even with his Life Meridian, he couldn't completely suppress it. He was the only one here who could deal with a Golden Immortal. If he couldn't act, staying here would be truly dangerous.
Hearing Mo Wuji's words, Ku Ya quickly summoned her flying ship. The group stepped onto the ship, brazenly rushed out of Yingbian City, and sped away.
...
Half a month later, Mo Wuji extracted a fine barb almost invisible to the naked eye from his body. The thickness of this barb was even less than one-tenth of a strand of hair.
After half a month of continuous extraction, Mo Wuji also realized that this was a high-grade treasure called Life-Devouring Barb (Shi Sheng Mang).
As soon as this Life-Devouring Barb was pulled out, Mo Wuji felt completely refreshed, and the suppressed feeling disappeared without a trace.
"How powerful," Mo Wuji praised inwardly as he held the tiny Life-Devouring Barb. The guy who could refine this Life-Devouring Barb was definitely a top-notch refining master.
As soon as he thought of refining masters, Mo Wuji remembered Master Pu. He immediately stood up and scanned with his spiritual will.
"Elder Brother Mo, has your injury healed?" This flying ship originally belonged to Ku Ya, and Ku Ya noticed as soon as Mo Wuji stood up.
"Yes..." As Mo Wuji spoke, he stepped out of the cabin.
"Sect Leader, thank you for saving my life. Joining the Heavenly Machine Sect was the wisest choice I've ever made," Suan Pan came over to express his gratitude for saving his life as soon as Mo Wuji came out.
Suan Pan's face was rosy, and Immortal Essence surrounded him, obviously indicating that his injuries had almost recovered.
"Suan Pan, you're all better?" Mo Wuji asked in surprise. He knew that Suan Pan's cultivation had been crippled, and he was planning to see if Suan Pan could cultivate meridians like him if Suan Pan couldn't repair his spiritual meridians.
Suan Pan quickly said, "Ku Ya helped me once. Ku Ya obtained a Heavenly Meridian Fruit (Tian Luo Guo) in the Immortal Mansion. She gave me the Heavenly Meridian Fruit, and I repaired my spiritual meridians."
Mo Wuji looked at Ku Ya. He didn't say any words of thanks, he believed that Ku Ya understood his gratitude. Suan Pan was willing to risk his life to save Lou Chuanhe in Yingbian City, and he was definitely a person worth saving. How could Mo Wuji not thank Ku Ya for taking out the Heavenly Meridian Fruit?
Everyone knew the value of the Heavenly Meridian Fruit. Like the Heavenly Meridian Flower (Tian Luo Hua), it was a non-grade spiritual item. This kind of non-grade spiritual item was the most precious, sometimes even more precious than Immortal spiritual items. Because it was non-grade, its effect was the same whether it was used on mortals or immortals.
The origin of the Heavenly Meridian Fruit was the Heavenly Meridian Flower. Heavenly Meridian Flowers were rare in the cultivation world and were the best choice for building spiritual meridians. One hundred Heavenly Meridian Flowers might not necessarily bear a Heavenly Meridian Fruit. Therefore, the Heavenly Meridian Fruit was a truly rare treasure.
The only effect of the Heavenly Meridian Fruit was to repair spiritual meridians. No matter how deeply damaged your spiritual meridians were, as long as they had not turned into nothingness, the Heavenly Meridian Fruit could repair them.
"Elder Brother Mo, right ahead is where I found the cave dwelling. I plan to take everyone here to cultivate for a while, and then talk about condensing Immortal Lattice," Ku Ya said proactively.
Mo Wuji nodded, he understood Ku Ya's meaning. He had so many Immortal Lattice Stones on him, so naturally he would let everyone condense Immortal Lattice. This sentence should have been brought up by him, but Ku Ya brought it up, which meant that everyone was very close. It wouldn't be considered impolite to use Mo Wuji's Immortal Lattice Stones to condense Immortal Lattice.
Ku Ya had wisdom and extremely high EQ.
"Okay, then Ku Ya will take us into the depths of the Immortal Mansion first," Mo Wuji said, taking out a small needle-like barb and handing it to Ku Ya, "This is the Life-Devouring Barb that the Golden Immortal used to ambush me. It's very powerful, it can devour vitality and suppress Immortal Essence and spiritual will. I'm not used to using this kind of magical treasure, so I'll give it to you."
Mo Wuji preferred open and straightforward battles. This kind of needle-like barb as thin as hair and carrying a trace of yin energy was indeed not very suitable for him.
"Thank you, Elder Brother Mo," Ku Ya didn't decline and took the Life-Devouring Barb that Mo Wuji handed her.
"Isn't this a big river?" Mo Wuji looked at the boundless river in front of him and wondered if the Immortal Mansion ruins that Ku Ya had obtained were in this river.
Ku Ya took out a fist-sized pearl, "The Immortal Mansion ruins I obtained back then are under this river. When Suan Pan and I first came to Yongying Corner, I felt a kind of calling. The idea that calling gave me was to come here alone to find inheritance. Suan Pan and I separated and came here, and then I obtained this Water-Repelling Pearl (Bi Shui Zhu). Guided by the Water-Repelling Pearl, I entered the bottom of the river and found that Immortal Mansion ruins."
Mo Wuji had also obtained a Water-Repelling Pearl, but it was not as big as Ku Ya's. The spiritual rhyme contained in it was also far inferior to the Water-Repelling Pearl in Ku Ya's hand.
"Ku Ya, lead the way, let's go down and take a look first," Mo Wuji didn't hesitate at all.
Ku Ya sacrificed the Water-Repelling Pearl and stood at the bow of the flying ship. The flying ship plunged into the river, and the river water seemed to be blocked by an invisible force, automatically separating on both sides. The flying ship didn't let in a drop of water and quickly entered the depths of the river.
"This river is called Wusheng River (Wu Sheng He), River of No Life. I saw such a rumor on the inheritance jade slip, saying that this river actually leads to the Immortal World. I later searched for a long time, but I couldn't find the way to the Immortal World. I want to go to the Immortal World, I'm afraid I still have to go through the Immortal Ascension Ladder," Ku Ya explained to everyone while controlling the flying ship forward.
Mo Wuji had never seen such a deep river. At Ku Ya's flying ship speed, it took a full hour to fly, but it still hadn't reached the bottom of the river.
After another half a day, Ku Ya's flying ship suddenly passed through a curtain like a ripple, and then the flying ship stopped.
"We're here, this is the Immortal Mansion where I obtained the inheritance," Ku Ya was the first to walk out of the flying ship.
Everyone got out of the flying ship one after another and was immediately attracted by the scene in front of them.
Rather than saying that this was an Immortal Mansion, it was more like a Golden Mansion. Even the circular gate to enter the Golden Mansion was golden, and the outer walls and tiles were all golden. The shape of this golden Immortal Mansion not only didn't make people feel vulgar, but also had a noble aura in it.
"After I entered the Immortal Mansion and obtained the inheritance, I realized that this Immortal Mansion was left by my Ku family ancestors. As long as there is direct bloodline of the Ku family, they can enter the Immortal Mansion. No Earth Immortals have appeared in my Ku family for a long time. As for being able to come to Yongying Corner, it's still because of the Sect Leader, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to obtain this inheritance either," Ku Ya's tone was full of gratitude, and it was also the first time she called Mo Wuji Sect Leader.
As she spoke, Ku Ya had already led everyone into the Immortal Mansion. Entering the circular golden gate was a hall that was ten zhang in radius. Several golden pillars engraved with various Immortal beasts stood in the hall, adding a bit of Immortal charm to the hall.
Knowing that this was the Ku family's inheritance, Mo Wuji didn't plan to touch the things inside, but said, "Everyone, find your own rooms to condense Immortal Lattice. After condensing Immortal Lattice, prepare to enter the Immortal World. Although it's safe for us to stay in Yongying Corner, it can't improve our strength."
After speaking, Mo Wuji took out some rings, "Each of these rings contains two million Immortal Lattice Stones, as well as high-grade Immortal Crystals and some Immortal Artifacts. After everyone refines them, they will belong to you."
Lou Chuanhe said with some shame, "Junior Brother Mo, I didn't protect the Immortal Crossing Warship."
"We'll talk about these later, condense Immortal Lattice first," Mo Wuji said, although he had many questions to ask, he also knew that the most important thing now was not these. He was sure that none of the people here would have problems. The most important thing now was to let everyone condense Immortal Lattice. Other things could be discussed after condensing Immortal Lattice.
