“Don’t tell me you don’t have an agenda. I don’t believe you.” Zhou Shu had already discovered that he could only deal with Yin Yuzhu forcefully. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to get her to say anything useful.
“I’ll tell you,” Yin Yuzhu said helplessly. “This is the Weapon Burial Mountain of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain. Back then, when the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain collapsed, part of its ruins was here. I happened to discover its traces.
“The Weapon Burial Mountain is where the weapons were buried in the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain. They believe that weapons have spirits, so when the personal weapons of the disciples are destroyed, they will be buried here.
“There are also some disciples of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain who killed powerful enemies and buried their weapons here.”
Yin Yuzhu put on an attitude of a know-it-all, which was completely different from her previous ignorance in the camp.
Zhou Shu understood that it was useless to guess a woman’s thoughts, especially those of a woman with ulterior motives.
His mind raced as he absorbed the information Yin Yuzhu said. But he didn’t say anything and instead stared at Yin Yuzhu, waiting for her to continue speaking.
“Of course, I’m here to dig up a few good weapons. The Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain is the ancestral source of forging, and their forging techniques are at the peak of perfection. Ordinary weapons are not qualified to be buried in the Weapon Burial Mountain,” Yin Yuzhu said matter-of-factly.
Zhou Shu snorted and still didn’t speak. His eyes didn’t blink as he continued to stare at Yin Yuzhu, his face filled with disbelief.
Not to mention that the Weapon Burial Mountain was the tomb of weapons, but there were not many intact weapons inside at all. Even if there were, why would Yin Yuzhu go through so much trouble for a few weapons?
If she did it herself, the efficiency of the excavation would definitely be greater than that of the Hundred Wars Armored Army.
Seeing Zhou Shu’s expression, Yin Yuzhu’s face fell. She cursed, “I’m not your prisoner. What kind of attitude is that? I spent money. You can just do what you’re paid to do. Why are you asking so much?”
A murderous aura shot out from Zhou Shu’s body, and Yin Yuzhu rolled her eyes.
“I’ll tell you! I’ll tell you!” Yin Yuzhu said loudly. “What kind of man bullies women!
“Rumor has it that the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain had a divine artifact with unparalleled power. It’s said that it perished along with the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain. I wondered if it was in the Weapon Burial Mountain.”
“In that case, why don’t you dig up this Weapon Burial Mountain yourself?” Zhou Shu asked coldly.
“Are you stupid?” Yin Yuzhu said disdainfully. “I’ve already told you that it’s a divine weapon with unparalleled power. Even if it’s only a remnant weapon now, its power is not something ordinary weapons can compare to. What if it still has some power left and kills me?”
“So, you used the Hundred Wars Armored Army as cannon fodder?” Zhou Shu’s face was brimming with killing intent.
“You can’t blame me for that,” Yin Yuzhu said. “Humans die for wealth, and birds die for food. I gave them money, and you agreed. I didn’t ask them to fight humans or demons to the death…”
Weapons were neither human nor demon. She wasn’t lying.
Zhou Shu snorted. This kind of word game was meaningless.
“Sophistry!” Zhou Shu said coldly. “If you can’t save them, you’ll be buried with them.”
Zhou Shu seemed to be stating a fact. With that, he ignored Yin Yuzhu and walked to the front of the Weapon Burial Mountain.
He didn’t know what the Weapon Burial Mountain looked like in the past, but it was only two to three hundred meters tall now. It stood alone on the ground, clearly separated from the surrounding mountains.
Upon closer inspection, it was as if the entire mountain had been moved here by an external force.
This situation made Zhou Shu believe Yin Yuzhu’s words. It was really possible that this mountain had been part of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain in the past. But it was impossible to verify if it was called the Weapon Burial Mountain.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and the Earth-grade Great Destroyer Sword on his back unsheathed at lightning speed.
A thousand-foot-long sword beam seemed to split the sky and instantly slashed at the Weapon Burial Mountain.
Buzz—
There was a soft sound, followed by the clang of countless weapons.
On the Weapon Burial Mountain, a small light suddenly erupted, and the light shot out from inside the mountain. In an instant, the entire Weapon Burial Mountain seemed to be pierced by the light.
Boom!
The light of the Heaven Slaying Sword Art disappeared, and the Weapon Burial Mountain trembled violently.
“Reckless!” Yin Yuzhu cursed and instantly retreated several kilometers like lightning. Then her figure flashed repeatedly, and she kept retreating. In the blink of an eye, she had already retreated dozens of kilometers away and looked like an ant.
Zhou Shu frowned slightly. “Big Brother, get your men to retreat first.”
He felt a force brewing inside the Weapon Burial Mountain, as if it would erupt at any moment.
Looking at Yin Yuzhu’s reaction, there might be danger here.
His strike just now didn’t cut open the Weapon Burial Mountain. Instead, it seemed to have provoked it.
Zhou Shu wasn’t afraid, but there were still Mi Ziwen and the Hundred Wars Armored Army here.
If anything really happened, he might not be able to take care of them.
Mi Ziwen could tell that something was wrong. He knew that this wasn’t the time to be polite. If the Hundred Wars Armored Army stayed here, they would only become a burden to his second brother.
“Second Brother, take care!” Mi Ziwen said in a deep voice. He gathered the Hundred Wars Armored Army and quickly left the Weapon Burial Mountain.
“Little Lu, you leave too.” Zhou Shu noticed that Lu Wenshuang hadn’t left.
“Master, I’m a first-rank martial artist. I can help you,” Lu Wenshuang said stubbornly. She hadn’t thought highly of Yin Yuzhu before, and now, she wanted to redeem herself.
Zhou Shu snorted.?This woman is as worrisome as my Wuyou.
“If I tell you to leave, you’ll leave. Are you going to disobey my orders?” he said coldly.
He hated arrogant women the most. Was being a first-rank martial artist so impressive?
Lu Wenshuang was stunned. A hint of disappointment and hatred for herself flashed across her eyes.
She turned to evacuate with Mi Ziwen without saying anything more.
When her back was facing Zhou Shu, she clenched her fists and made up her mind. She had to work hard to cultivate and improve her strength as soon as possible. She couldn’t let her master underestimate her!
Zhou Shu had no time to pay attention to Lu Wenshuang’s thoughts. He stared at the Weapon Burial Mountain curiously.
“You’re already a broken weapon. Is there something you want to protect?” Zhou Shu muttered. “I want to see what’s under the Weapon Burial Mountain.
“If you were in good condition, with so many spiritual weapons, you might be able to stop me. But now…”
As Zhou Shu spoke, he took a step forward, and a towering aura erupted from his body.
As he stepped forward, everything under his elbows turned red, as if they were made of magma.
Heat filled the air.
Clank!
On the Weapon Burial Mountain, a bright light shot out. It was a broken sword!
The broken sword was already rusty, but at this moment, it exuded boundless sharpness.
Zhou Shu’s lips curled up slightly. He raised his hands and held the broken sword between them.
The power of the Iron Smelting Hands Technique erupted, and the broken sword turned into a fiery red solution that flowed down at a visible speed.
Rustle!
A loud sound rang out from within the Weapon Burial Mountain. Rays of light shot out one after another, covering the sky and earth as they pressed down on Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu laughed. “I’m a forger. I’m good at dealing with weapons.”
He waved his hands, and two fire dragons spiraled out. The Iron Smelting Hands Technique Hand was at full power. In an instant, the area within dozens of feet seemed to have become a high-temperature smelting furnace. Any remaining weapons that entered this range began to turn red and melt at a visible speed.
But the remaining weapons flew toward Zhou Shu like moths to a flame without any hesitation.
