Chapter 429: Immortal Ferrying Ship
Another cultivator shook his head, "I don't know what's going on either. Maybe he has a way to dissolve the sharp wood aura. Throughout the history of the Half Immortal Domain, who can advance to Heavenly Immortal after surviving a tribulation? Moreover, he is undergoing tribulation in the Death Mineral Area. Did you see him being affected by the Colorless Leech?”
The thunder above the Death Mineral Area had already disappeared. Mo Wuji had already cleaned up, changed his clothes, and landed in front of the two talking brothers.
Five thousand shattered spirit stones, plus the spiritual energy in this Death Mineral Area, allowed him to break through from Human Immortal Level 7 to Earth Immortal Level 1 in one year. Mo Wuji was already very satisfied.
"Do you have something you want from me?" Mo Wuji only needed to glance at the protective array set up by the two brothers to know that they had been here for a long time.
"Tong Sheng greets Fellow Daoist. This is my younger brother, Tong Ye. We have been in the Death Mineral Area, so we are very impressed that Fellow Daoist can cultivate here and wanted to befriend you." The slightly thinner cultivator quickly cupped his fists at Mo Wuji.
He was also very surprised. Mo Wuji's speed was too fast. He arrived in front of him almost immediately after finishing the tribulation, and he even changed into a new set of clothes.
"Tong Ye greets Fellow Daoist." The slightly chubby younger brother greatly admired Mo Wuji. To be able to build such a huge protective array here and undergo tribulation was simply godlike.
Mo Wuji nodded. He also guessed that these two didn't have any malicious intentions. Otherwise, they wouldn't have openly set up a protective array outside his protective array and lived there. To wait here for a year just to befriend someone, Mo Wuji was really seeing it for the first time.
"My name is Mo Wuji. Your flames are very special." After Mo Wuji returned the greeting, his gaze remained on the two's protective barrier.
Mo Wuji had subdued Heavenly Fire. The flames of these two brothers seemed to be completely different from Heavenly Fire. If he wasn't very sensitive to flames, he wouldn't have been able to sense it.
With a thought, Tong Sheng made the flames of the protective barrier suddenly intensify. The surface temperature of the dark red flames didn't seem that high. But Mo Wuji could still feel the terrifying aura within the flames.
"Fellow Daoist Mo, we brothers got a Heart Fire Seed by chance, and it took thousands of years of nurturing to achieve the effect it has today. Compared to Fellow Daoist's Heavenly Fire, our Heart Fire is far inferior," Tong Sheng said humbly after activating his flames.
"This flame is indeed very strong. Please wait a moment. I have a few friends in my protective array. I'll discuss it with them and then invite you two into the protective array." Mo Wuji naturally understood Tong Sheng's purpose in displaying his flames. These two brothers must have offended someone in the Half Immortal Domain. That's why they couldn't go back or show their faces. Displaying their flames here was a way of flexing their muscles, expressing that the brothers had enough strength to become allies with him.
"Fellow Daoist Mo, please do as you wish." Tong Sheng cupped his fist again.
Mo Wuji turned around and stepped into his protective array. Grandmaster Pu Zi was refining a warship in his protective array. Regardless of whether the warship was refined or not, it couldn't be easily revealed to others.
"Fellow Daoist Mo, your lightning tribulation was too fierce." As soon as Mo Wuji entered the protective array, Grandmaster Pu Zi greeted him with a hearty laugh.
The stronger Mo Wuji was, the better for him.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother Mo." Lou Chuanhe and Jia Qi also came over to congratulate Mo Wuji on advancing to Earth Immortal.
Mo Wuji smiled and was about to speak when his divine sense suddenly swept over the black stone mine not far away. He then said in surprise, "There are so many black stones?"
"Yes, Senior Brother and Junior Sister Jia and I have mined nearly a million of them, and there are still more here. This is probably the largest black stone mine in the Half Immortal Domain," Lou Chuanhe said excitedly.
Mo Wuji knew that there were many black stones in this mine, but he didn't expect that there were so many. It seemed that they didn't need to go to other places to mine black stones. It was indeed a good thing that he had invited Lou Chuanhe and Jia Qi to join, otherwise, he wouldn't have had so much time to mine black stones.
"Grandmaster Pu Zi..." Mo Wuji wasn't very concerned about black stones. He could easily find black stones. What he cared about was the warship.
He only called out Grandmaster Pu Zi's name and was immediately attracted to the exquisite warship on the side.
Without waiting for Grandmaster Pu Zi to answer, Mo Wuji stepped onto the warship and reached out to stroke the icy cannon on the warship.
The warship's exterior exuded a faint, dim cold light. One layer after another of restrictions were completely connected, forming various formations.
"Fellow Daoist Mo, this warship is complete. It's just waiting for you to take out the various cannons and install them," Grandmaster Pu Zi said proudly from the side.
Although the main components of this warship were basically refined, it still took him more than a year to complete it thoroughly.
Mo Wuji walked to the warship's control console. There were at least a dozen handles here. He reached out and pulled the cutting handle, but there was no response.
Grandmaster Pu Zi, who was standing next to Mo Wuji, explained, "Fellow Daoist Mo, cutting is one of the warship's close-range attack methods. However, it can't be activated without energy. This type of attack method can't be used."
"This warship has close-range attack methods in addition to long-range attacks?" Mo Wuji asked in surprise, becoming more and more satisfied with this warship.
Grandmaster Pu Zi said proudly, "Of course. Otherwise, what would you do in close combat? Once energy is supplied, pulling down the warship's cutting handle will cause two huge horizontal blades to extend from the warship's wings. The warship can easily cut the opponent's warship in half with the horizontal blades. In addition to the cutting horizontal blades, the warship also has close-range laser handles, lightning strike handles..."
"Then what kind of energy does this warship use?" Mo Wuji asked eagerly.
When Grandmaster Pu Zi heard Mo Wuji ask about energy, his eyes dimmed and he said, "It uses shattered spirit stones, and not just a few shattered spirit stones. I estimate that crossing the Immortal Chasm will require at least ten million shattered spirit stones. This is a conservative estimate."
Mo Wuji's heart also sank. Although Grandmaster Pu Zi didn't say it explicitly, he could guess that shattered spirit stones weren't the best energy source for the warship. However, the highest level of energy they could find now was shattered spirit stones.
Seeing Mo Wuji remain silent, Grandmaster Pu Zi felt helpless. These shattered spirit stones came from the Immortal Realm and couldn't be solved by human means. To get to the Immortal Realm, they had to cross the Immortal Chasm. And crossing the Immortal Chasm required shattered spirit stones to power the warship. This formed a vicious cycle.
"Fellow Daoist Mo, I have refined your flying car." Grandmaster Pu Zi took out a flying car that was only the size of a palm and handed it to Mo Wuji. He hoped that Mo Wuji wouldn't be discouraged by the energy problem, as it was related to his own fate.
This was a true top-grade flying magic treasure. Grandmaster Pu Zi had stayed in the Half Immortal Domain long enough. He had participated in the refinement of the warship and had researched a storage ring for storing black stones. Although he had never been exposed to the refinement of immortal tools, the flying magic treasure he refined had already surpassed the grade of top-grade spirit tools.
Holding the flying car spirit tool in his hand, Mo Wuji once again thought of Shu Yin. The flying car spirit tool was exquisitely crafted and almost identical to the flying car she had given him.
Mo Wuji silently put away the flying car spirit tool. After a while, he said, "Grandmaster Pu Zi, we'll install the ship's cannons when we collect enough shattered spirit stones."
Installing the ship's cannons was simple, but without shattered spirit stones, the warship couldn't be activated even if the cannons were installed.
"Junior Brother Mo, now that the warship is refined, let's give it a name," Lou Chuanhe said, bringing Mo Wuji's thoughts back.
"Yes, since it's a warship for crossing the Immortal Chasm, it must have a name. Let me think..." Mo Wuji thought for a moment and continued, "Let's call this warship the Immortal Crossing Warship (渡仙艦, Du Xian Jian)."
"This name is good. It expresses our determination to cross the Immortal Chasm," Grandmaster Pu Zi said immediately.
Mo Wuji raised his hand to put away the warship and waved a formation flag at the same time, opening the protective array. He called out to the Tong brothers outside the protective array, "Fellow Daoists, please come in and have a chat."
Although they had waited a little long, Tong Sheng and Tong Ye didn't mind. Years of training in the Death Mineral Area had already made them more patient than ordinary people. Otherwise, the two wouldn't have casually stayed outside Mo Wuji's protective array for a year.
"Oh, are you Grandmaster Pu Zi?" After Tong Sheng came in, he looked at Grandmaster Pu Zi and asked in surprise.
Grandmaster Pu Zi felt that Tong Sheng and Tong Ye were somewhat familiar. He didn't know their names. Seeing that they recognized him, he quickly cupped his fists and said, "It is indeed Pu Zi. May I know who you two are?"
Tong Sheng quickly said, "We received guidance from Grandmaster Bo Qin. Grandmaster Bo Qin highly praises you."
"Bo Qin? Is he still alive?" Grandmaster Pu Zi asked eagerly, his eyes showing joy.
Tong Sheng's expression darkened, "Grandmaster Bo Qin was severely injured by Meng Tianyu and fled into the Death Mineral Area. When we brothers met Grandmaster Bo Qin, his spiritual meridians were completely lignified by the Colorless Leech."
Grandmaster Pu Zi sighed. After a long while, he said to Mo Wuji, "Fellow Daoist Mo, this Fellow Daoist Bo Qin was the one who refined the Immortal Crossing Warship with me. He was chased and killed by Meng Tianyu. It seems that my guess was correct. Meng Tianyu was among those who betrayed us back then."
Originally, when Tong Sheng and Tong Ye saw that Grandmaster Pu Zi was also in the protective array, they thought that this group should be led by Grandmaster Pu Zi. Now, hearing Grandmaster Pu Zi's words to Mo Wuji, the two realized that Mo Wuji was still the leader of this group.
"Ah... so many black stones..." Tong Ye's divine sense had already seen the black stone mine and he exclaimed in surprise. At the same time, Tong Sheng also saw the black stone mine and was even more shocked. They knew that they couldn't take away so many black stones, but they were still shocked.
"You two are hiding here, you must have offended someone in the Half Immortal Domain, right?" Mo Wuji suddenly asked.
Fortunately, Tong Sheng and Tong Ye had been in the Death Mineral Area for so many years, and they had seen many large black stone mines. After the shock, they quickly regained their composure. Hearing Mo Wuji's question, Tong Sheng sighed, "Yes, we brothers offended Hong Fuyi. This guy also has a nickname called Axe Grandpa (斧爺, Fu Ye)..."
