Chapter 423: Zhuling Grotto-Heaven (1)
“On the verge of death? What do you mean?” Zhou Shu frowned at Shi Changsheng. He was a little sensitive now. The Longevity Sword could speak and become a person in his consciousness. Could the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament space do this too?
A perfectly good space was on the verge of death?
“You don’t understand?” Shi Changsheng glanced at Zhou Shu. “I really don’t know how you cultivated to this point.”
Zhou Shu: “…”
Did I beat you too lightly?
The Longevity Sword is really sarcastic!
“You don’t know what the meaning of being on the verge of death is? It’s dying, understand?” Shi Changsheng said.
“Nonsense!” Zhou Shu was furious. How could he not know what it meant? “I’m asking you about this space, the Zhuling Grotto-Heaven! It’s not human. What do you mean it’s dying?”
“So what if it’s not a human? You’re prejudiced,” Shi Changsheng said. “Everything in the world has life and death. Why can’t the Zhuling Grotto-Heaven die? It’s not good for you to be like this. You can’t discriminate against things.”
Zhou Shu: “…”
...
When did I discriminate against it? I was just asking. Can’t you talk nicely? Why do you have to talk like that?
Zhou Shu gritted his teeth. “Alright, let’s just assume that the Zhuling Grotto-Heaven is about to die. What will happen if it dies? I mean, what will happen here?”
Shi Changsheng knew when to stop. After all, this wasn’t the past. He couldn’t provoke this junior too much.
“When people die, everything is gone. It’s the same with objects. When they die, there’s nothing left,” Shi Changsheng said.
“Boom, it will collapse. Do you understand?”
“This whole space will collapse and disappear? How long does it have?” Zhou Shu said.
The passage between here and the Ten Nations wouldn’t open for another two years. If this world collapsed, it was obvious that everything inside would die.
“At the minimum a few years, at the maximum a few decades,” Shi Changsheng said.
Zhou Shu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was at least still a few years away.
But he had originally planned to treat this place as a branch of the Huaxia Pavilion. Now, it seemed that he couldn’t. In that case, before leaving this time, he had to dig up all the mines here. Otherwise, the next time he wanted to enter, there might not be anything left here.
I have to make them dig faster!?Zhou Shu thought.
“Brother Zhou, look, we’ve spoken frankly.” Shi Changsheng forced a smile. “Can you return the forging materials in this grotto-heaven to me?
“Forget about the ones you used. I’ll take them as a gift for you, Brother Zhou.” Shi Changsheng waved his hand generously.
Zhou Shu looked at Shi Changsheng with a faint smile.
Shi Changsheng looked conflicted. “At most, I’ll give you thirty percent!”
His face was full of distress, as if he was cutting flesh on his body.
Zhou Shu remained silent, still looking at Shi Changsheng.
Shi Changsheng gritted his teeth. “Fifty percent! No more!
“I painstakingly gathered these forging materials for many years and spent a lot of effort to migrate them to the Zhuling Grotto-Heaven. They’re all my life!”
“Old Shi, don’t think too much,” Zhou Shu said. “It’s impossible for me to give you forging materials. If we get along well, it won’t be a problem to let you swallow fifty kilograms of forging materials.
“If we don’t get along, Old Shi, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Shi Changsheng’s eyes were spitting fire. They were really spitting fire.
In Zhou Shu’s mind, Shi Changsheng was so angry that his body turned somewhat ethereal.
“That’s outrageous!” Shi Changsheng said angrily. “Don’t force me to destroy everything!”
“Old Shi, you’re wrong.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “Old Shi, put yourself in my shoes. If you found some mines in an ownerless place and painstakingly dug them out, would you give them to anyone who jumped out and said that they belonged to him?”
“Who said this place doesn’t have an owner?” Shi Changsheng said angrily.
“Old Shi, I’m trying to reason with you. You’d better calm down,” Zhou Shu said calmly. “Otherwise, I won’t be reasonable.
“If I’m unreasonable, you won’t get any of these forging materials.”
“Very well!” Shi Changsheng made a panting gesture and said in a low voice, “The new generation really surpasses the old. Tell me, what do I have to do to be willing to return these forging materials to me?
“Cultivation techniques, secret forging formulas, what do you want?
“Or I’ll tell you how to break through to the Earth Immortal realm!
“It’s not that I’m bragging, but anything I take out will be extremely beneficial to you. Don’t offend me for some forging materials. It’s not worth it.
“How old are you this year? You’ve been stuck at the first rank for many years, right? With my guidance, you can break through to the Earth Immortal realm, and it’s not impossible for you to break through to the Awakening realm in the future.
“At that time, you will be the number one person in the world. You can have anything you want. You probably won’t even bother to look at the forging materials in the Zhuling Grotto-Heaven.”
Shi Changsheng spoke confidently. If he failed to threaten him, he would tempt him. He believed that no martial artist could refuse the temptation of breaking through to a higher level.
If it were anyone else, they might really not be able to resist the temptation. As the ruler of a country, Emperor Wei Wu could even do those crazy things in order to break through the first rank of the Martial Dao.
