He was about to lead the troops in another direction when he suddenly felt a white mist appear in front of him. All the colors and sounds in the world seemed to disappear in an instant.
In Lu Wenshuang’s field of vision, she saw Mi Ziwen and the Hundred Wars Armored Army standing there in a daze.
“What have you done to them?!” Lu Wenshuang shouted angrily. “If you dare to hurt them, my master will definitely not let you off!”
“You still have time to worry about others?” Yin Yuzhu smiled coquettishly. “Using that brat surnamed Zhou to threaten me? You’re thinking too much.
“He’s just a tool for me, like the rest of you.”
“What a pity. I wanted to have more fun with you. I didn’t expect you people to be so irritable…”
Swoosh!
What she received in response was a sharp sword beam.
Lu Wenshuang’s face was as cold as frost, and her eyes were full of determination. The surface of her skin had a strange pink color, as if it was filled with blood.
Her aura kept rising, and she vaguely felt like she was about to break through past the first rank of the Martial Dao.
“Do you want to fight to the death?” Yin Yuzhu smiled. “Even if an ant goes all out, it won’t be able to defeat an elephant.
“In your own words, you’re overestimating yourselves. Haha!”
Amid the laughter, Yin Yuzhu’s figure appeared in the air. With a flick of Yin Yuzhu’s finger, Lu Wenshuang’s body flew high into the air and landed on the ground with a bang. Her aura had already been completely dispersed.
Even the Abyss Rainbow Sword in her hand flew out.
Her eyes darkened as she tried her best to warn Zhou Shu, but she didn’t have any strength left. She couldn’t even make a sound, let alone shout.
Yin Yuzhu stood in the air, her clothes fluttering even though there was no wind. Even her long hair was floating in a straight line behind her head.
Her gaze fell on the distant Weapon Burial Mountain, and her eyes flashed with anticipation.
“It should work this time, right?” Yin Yuzhu muttered to herself.
…
Under the Weapon Burial Mountain, Zhou Shu didn’t notice what was happening in the distance.
He focused all his attention on the countless weapons in front of him. Under the full power of his Iron Smelting Hands Technique, the thousands of attacking remnant weapons turned into fiery red liquid.
Iron-smelting was not something that could be easily done.
After experiencing many battles, Zhou Shu’s Iron Smelting Hands Technique had unknowingly reached perfection. Now that he was using the Iron Smelting Hands Technique at full strength, he could easily smelt even heaven-grade weapons.
Although the attacks of the Weapon Burial Mountain in front of him looked very terrifying, these weapons were only remnant weapons after all. Their power was probably less than 1% of their peak.
Under the perfected Iron Smelting Hands Technique, these remnant weapons were simply hitting a rock with an egg.
Zhou Shu’s divine sense was like water, transforming into an invisible hand that gathered the liquid refined from the remnant weapons.
Countless weapons had been buried under the Weapon Burial Mountain. The liquid they were smelted into weighed thousands of kilograms.
Under Zhou Shu’s control, the fiery red solution kept changing shape.
If other forgers were present, they would definitely be able to tell that Zhou Shu was actually forging with the solution refined from these broken weapons!
For forgers, it was common to reforge broken weapons after smelting them.
After all, forging materials were precious, and they couldn’t be wasted.
But smelting broken weapons required the analysis of various forging materials first. The workload was much more cumbersome than directly using forging materials to forge weapons.
What Zhou Shu was doing now was not a conventional method. He didn’t separate the various forging materials at all. He directly relied on the characteristics of these damaged weapons to forge on the basis of composite materials!
This seemed no different, but only forgers could understand the difficulty.
Doing so was extremely demanding on the forger. It required the forger to know the characteristics of all the materials and to fully understand the changes after the various materials were combined.
It was unknown how many types of forging materials were contained in the liquid smelted from the thousands of broken weapons or the amount of various forging materials.
Using them to forge a weapon required an instant analysis of the types and ratios of the forging materials inside. He had to use their characteristics to design a weapon.
The calculations needed to be done here made one’s head explode just thinking about it.
If forgers saw Zhou Shu carrying out such a matter so casually, they would definitely exclaim in disbelief.
As Zhou Shu smelted the thousands of remnant weapons, a human meridian diagram appeared in his mind.
With a wave of his hand, Heaven Refining Stones flew out of his Cosmic Bangle.
Part of the Heaven Refining Stone reserves in the Huaxia Pavilion’s Demon Realm branch was carried by the forgers of the various nations during the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament. The other Heaven Refining Stones had been discovered by Yang Hong in Shi Changsheng’s cave abode.
These Heaven Refining Stones were actually not a small amount. On the Ten Nations Continent, they were enough to forge dozens of heaven-grade weapons.
But with so many Heaven Refining Stones, he had used up a third of them when forging the divine weapon the Crimson Firmament!
The amount of Heaven Refining Stone consumed by the Crimson Firmament was more than ten times that of ordinary heaven-grade weapons!
The direct consequence of this was that Zhou Shu didn’t have much Heaven Refining Stone left.
After all, in the Huaxia Pavilion’s Demon Realm branch, Li Chengliang and the others also needed some Heaven Refining Stones to forge ranked weapons.
Zhou Shu had taken out all the Heaven Refining Stones on him and melted them into liquid instantly. Under Zhou Shu’s control, he drew a human meridian diagram in the air at a visible speed!
This time, he didn’t rely on the human body. Instead, he used his divine sense as a pen and the Heaven Refining Stone as ink. Like a 3D printer in his previous life, he drew a human meridian diagram out of thin air.
If not for his powerful divine sense, it would be impossible for him to complete this step with his spiritual essence alone.
Unfortunately, there was no audience for this scene that would go down in history.
The moment the human meridian chart was formed, light shone brightly. The liquid refined from thousands of remnant weapons seemed to be attracted by the human meridian chart and attached to it.
Rustle!
Sounds like flowing water mixed with the sounds of the remnant weapons colliding and attacking.
At the foot of the Weapon Burial Mountain, it was as if they had entered a state of harmony.
Broken weapons kept flying out of the mountain to attack Zhou Shu.
Then they were melted into liquid by Zhou Shu’s Iron Smelting Hands. The liquid flowed toward the human meridian chart and the weapon attached to it.
To outsiders, it looked like a river of weapons flowing in an orderly manner.
The human body’s meridian chart was quickly covered by the fiery red liquid and could no longer be seen.
The liquid formed from thousands of weapons now seemed to form a faceless human figure.
The human form was still gradually changing. From human form, it became a cube. Then it kept elongating and compressing.
Gradually, it seemed to be evolving into a weapon.
Thunder rumbled in the sky. Large dark clouds were gathering.
The light in the Weapon Burial Mountain was fading, and the number of remnant weapons flying out was decreasing.
Suddenly, the Weapon Burial Mountain shook violently. The mountain suddenly cracked open, and a gentle jade-like light shot out from the crack. A sharp aura soared into the sky.
Clang!
A crisp sound rang out. In the distance, the weapons on the waists of the Hundred Wars Armored Army, who were standing blankly like wooden puppets, seemed to have been stimulated by something. They all let out a clang.
Yin Yuzhu’s eyes turned red at a visible speed, and light erupted from her pupils.
“Is it coming out?” Yin Yuzhu laughed. “As expected, someone has to take action. Only by using human blood can you appear!”
“Kun Wu, you can’t escape from me after all!”
Yin Yuzhu’s long hair fluttered in the wind. With a flash, she arrived at the top of the Weapon Burial Mountain. With a whoosh, she stretched out her slender jade-like hand toward the crack in the Weapon Burial Mountain. With a clang, a saber suddenly appeared in Yin Yuzhu’s fair palm. The saber was still trembling violently, seemingly struggling non-stop.
