Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Hearing this, Ye Mo knew this abstruse immortal had been here for at least a few years.

Ye Mo immediately changed his idea of going on and pointed at a spirit rest tower not far away. “Friend, if you have time let’s go in and have a talk.”

The abstruse immortal knew what Ye Mo meant and nodded.

Ye Mo knew that even the best immortal rest tower in the immortal city wouldn’t cost more than 100 immortal crystals for two hours. Ordinary rooms only cost 10 immortal crystals or even just a few immortal crystals.

But when they entered a bird cage sized room, it cost 500 top grade immortal crystals for just 15 minutes.

Seeing Ye Mo pay 1000 immortal crystals for half an hour, the abstruse immortal’s heart ached. If it was him, he wouldn’t dare to spend this much in here.

Ye Mo knew the value of immortal crystals on the ship, but he thought differently. In a place like this, if immortal crystals were limited then there was no use in just saving. It would only delay using up your immortal crystals by a few days. It couldn’t solve the problem from the root. The biggest problem was how to earn immortal crystals on the ship.

Ye Mo knew pill concoction and forgery, but this was an immortal ship. Even if materials weren’t limited, people needed to have the immortal crystals to buy them.

Ye Mo asked for two cups of immortal spirit tea.

The abstruse immortal drank this extremely low quality tea and yet moaned in satisfaction. Clearly he hadn’t been using immortal crystals for cultivation for a long time.

“I’m Wu Licong, thank you for helping me friend. However, I will definitely be sent to do labor soon,” the abstruse immortal said apologetically.

Ye Mo waved his hand. “I’m Ye Mo, I believe you know why I came to you. I want to ask about the situation here, can you tell me what doing labor is?”

Wu Licong sighed. “The heaven domain immortal ship sounds good, but it is disgusting. Going anywhere here requires immortal crystals, if you use up your immortal crystals you will be kicked out of your place and sent into the lowest ore refinery deck. Immortals without immortal crystals are kicked down there. Thousands of immortals stay in one big deck refining Void Secret Silver. Many immortals refine Void Secret Silver endlessly in a place without immortal spirit chi, so eventually they die.”

Void Secret Silver was refined from void asteroids. It was a top grade material for forging immortal artifacts. Depending on it’s quality, it could range from a level four to level six immortal material, the top grade might even reach level seven.

Void Secret Silver could be used to set up long distance teleportation formations or forge void element magic artifacts. It was highly valued, but the only drawback was that it was too hard to refine. Because these things only existed in void asteroids, even a mountain sized asteroid wouldn’t have much Void Secret Silver.

The ship flew in the void so of course people could get the asteroids, but then they needed people to refine them.

Realizing this, Ye Mo’s heart went cold. They were so cruel! After the immortals of the low grade decks have been stripped of their immortal crystals, they could only go refine the Void Secret Silver or they wouldn’t even have an opportunity to survive.

“Because I have no immortal crystals, I took out the only pills I had left to sell off at the marketplace, but the thing was that no matter how low I set the price I was unable to sell them and instead owed 1000 immortal crystals for the entrance fee. The people here want me to have no immortal crystals so I will have to go refine ores. Now that you helped me pay the immortal crystals, the great unity immortal manager would definitely hate you. You need to be careful,” Wu Licong said.

Ye Mo nodded and asked again, “Why is it that even if you stay in your place and not go out you still have to pay immortal crystals?”

Wu Licong sighed. “Because there will often be heaven domain storms or even more terrifying natural disasters flying in the void. Every year, people come and take ship maintenance fees.”

Hearing this Ye Mo almost wanted to curse. This wasn’t an immortal ship, this was hell. One couldn’t earn immortal crystals in the ship and each day they would be spending immortal crystals, even the wealthiest person would be drained.

“How do the immortals here earn immortal crystals?” Ye Mo asked.

“There are places to earn immortal crystals but they are mostly at the top deck. In the lower deck, one can only seek some opportunities in the marketplace. Of course you can ask to refine ores and can earn immortal crystals by refining asteroids, but that depends on how much you can refine. Sometimes, you might refine an entire asteroid and not find a single drop of Void Secret Silver,” Wu Licong said.

“How do you earn immortal crystals at the top deck?”

“Top grade decks are where the wealthy people are at. You can sell things of value at the marketplace, but the stall price is too high and the standards of those immortals there are also too high. You can’t sell ordinary things. Other than that, you can also contribute when the ship encounters natural disasters, but the contribution and the immortal crystals you receive aren’t equal. Of course you can find asteroids outside the ship and sell it to the ship.

“Just that?”

“It’s said that there are also gladiator arenas in the middle and top grade decks. If you go in and win you can earn immortal crystals. Casino, pill concoction, forgery, as long as you have the capability or the money to go to the top and middle grade decks to do business, you have an opportunity to earn immortal crystals. But I’ve always been at the lower decks so I don’t know.”

Seeing that Ye Mo was interested he quickly said, “Don’t go to middle grade and top grade decks so easily, that’s an endless drain. Many people want to get a stall to earn immortal crystals, but in the end they lose out and can only go refine ores.”

“By the way, I heard there were immortal kings on the ship. Will we be able to see immortal kings?” Ye Mo asked. action

Wu Licong looked at Ye Mo speechlessly. “Immortal king masters are all at the top grade cultivation rooms of the special deck, how can they come out? They’re all in solitary cultivation, unless there are special circumstances, they won’t even be seen at special grade decks.

Ye Mo breathed easy, as long as he didn’t see immortal kings it was good.

“I understand, thank you.” Ye Mo got up.

Wu Licong shook his head, he knew this abstruse immortal probably wouldn’t listen to him. When he suffered, he would know he didn’t lie to him.

Ye Mo and Wu Licong went down the stairs. Just as Wu Licong thought, he indeed wanted to go to the middle grade area or top grade area to have a look.

Seeing Ye Mo about to leave, Wu Licong added, “Brother Ye, try to not have conflict with people here.”

Wu Licong explained, “That’s because this is a place where you can kill. Power is reason. The managers won’t say anything. If there is conflict between two immortals, one of them can challenge the other. If you don’t agree, you must compensate with immortal crystals. If you don’t have immortal crystals, then your opponent can tell you off to the managers and your storage ring will be taken and you will be sent to ore refinery.”

“There’s no reason at all?” Ye Mo frowned and asked.

“No reason at all,” Wu Licong answered. “If you agree to the challenge you will have to go to the battle arena, usually only one returns.”

Wu Licong added, “Brother Ye if you offend someone then it’s pointless to even stay at where you live. People can break into your place to challenge you and not be held responsible. You will have to pay for the damages. If you were killed, he can get all your belongings and can pay the damages too. The immortal ship doesn’t care. As long as they get compensation it is fine by them.”

Hearing this, Ye Mo realized it was very wrong of him to help Wu Licong pay immortal crystals today. Wu Licong felt bad and thus told him that much.

Him paying for Wu Licong meant he was wealthy. According to what he said, anyone could look for trouble with him, there was no reason at all.

Thinking about this, Ye Mo said goodbye and quickly left.

After walking for a few hundred meters Ye Mo knew he was being followed, but he didn’t stop.

Moments later Ye Mo came to his room, but he was furious to see an abstruse immortal smashing the room’s restrictions.
