Chapter 127 - 107: The Arrogant Ones All Have Illnesses
Again, the Immortal Skill.
From the moment Gu Wen began his cultivation, he had heard of the Thirty-Six Immortal Skill no less than a hundred times. His cultivation at the Yuqing Daoji was the Immortal Skill, the True Sword Dao was the Immortal Skill, and the Yuqing Sword Skill and Jun Yan were also connected to the Immortal Skill.
Both the Greater and Lesser Vehicles were forms of the Immortal Skill, but one was about the Buddha Ancestor enlightening all beings, and the other was about the Great Demon laying down their butcher’s knife and instantly achieving Buddhahood.
Xiao Yunyi asked, "Do you know about the Burial Abyss?"
Gu Wen nodded, "It’s said to be a place that can extend one’s life, filled with countless old monsters who don’t wish to die, each one being ancient and withered."
The last sentence was Hee Huan’s quip. The Burial Abyss only slowed the loss of one’s lifespan, and in the process, one was unable to take any action, akin to being frozen. Though one might exist for ten thousand years, their cultivation would remain as it was before entering.
And during this process, life did not completely halt; most who entered the Burial Abyss were slowly dying, with the most obvious sign being the withering of the body.

Xiao Yunyi then asked, "Do you know about the Gu Poison common among the mortal realm?"
