Before Shi Changsheng finished speaking, the sword trembled and soared into the sky. Boundless sword qi instantly spread from the Longevity Sword.
Sizzle—
The sound of sword qi tearing through the air resounded. Almost at the same time, the lingering sharpness in the valley suddenly became fierce, just like a longsword not completely sheathed becoming unsheathed in an instant.
Clink Clink Clang Clang!
Just from the contact of the auras, there was already a clang in the air.
The sharpness coming from Yuheng Valley was unlike a saber or a sword. It collided with the sword qi emitted by the Longevity Sword. The sword qi filling the sky melted and disappeared like snow encountering hot water.
The Longevity Sword retreated step by step and was instantly defeated.
“Young fellow, I’ve done my best.” Shi Changsheng’s words sounded in Zhou Shu’s ear. The Longevity Sword turned into a stream of light and flew toward the exit of Yuheng Valley. “I will come back and collect your corpse.”
He said something that made Zhou Shu not know whether to laugh or cry before disappearing from Zhou Shu’s vision.
Zhou Shu cursed in his heart. He was indeed unreliable. Shi Changsheng had swallowed the treasures in his Cosmic Bangle, but he still fled at the last second!
In the end, he still had to rely on himself!
Zhou Shu’s eyes burned as he stared at the endless sharpness, and strong battle intent surged in his heart.
“Young fellow, I forgot to tell you. This thing restrains divine weapons, but you might be able to resist it. Hold on.” Shi Changsheng’s voice floated over from somewhere and entered Zhou Shu’s ears.
Zhou Shu snorted coldly. Shi Changsheng was unreliable. At a time like this, he was still hiding something!
Fortunately, after half a day, the aftereffects of the divine ability Total Annihilation were about to pass.
He could already sense that his cultivation was recovering. Even if something unexpected happened, he was not completely helpless.
“Heaven and earth are the furnace, The workman, the Creator; His coal is the yin and the yang, His copper, all things of creation.”
At this moment, an incomparably ancient voice suddenly sounded in Zhou Shu’s ear.
In an instant, an incomparably grand scene appeared in front of him.
In the starry sky of the universe, a three-legged Xuanhuang Cauldron floated there. The sun, moon, and stars all flew out of the cauldron one after another, as if they were forged by the Xuanhuang Cauldron.
The scene circulated, and the three-legged Xuanhuang Cauldron reappeared on a landmass. Everything in the world flew into the Xuanhuang Cauldron and turned into black and yellow qi.
Then Zhou Shu saw that within the Xuanhuang Cauldron, all things were born and destroyed. A world was formed, and a world was destroyed.
Life, from origin to destruction, happened in the blink of an eye.
This scene shocked Zhou Shu deeply.
“A Heaven and Earth Furnace?”
A few words appeared in Zhou Shu’s mind.
He knew what Shi Changsheng had been hiding.
There was actually a Heaven and Earth Furnace in Yuheng Valley.
A furnace that could smelt everything in the world!
It could even smelt heaven and earth, let alone a mere Longevity Sword.
No wonder Shi Changsheng looked like he had seen a ghost. This Heaven and Earth Furnace was indeed the nemesis of divine weapons.
But Zhou Shu could sense that this Heaven and Earth Furnace was either incomplete or broken by someone. It was not in its complete state.
The master of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain is indeed impressive. He actually forged such a smelting furnace.
Refining everything in the world. How bold.
In comparison, the industrialization furnaces that Zhou Shu, Zhang Chunlin, and the others had created were simply child’s play.
As he thought of this, Zhou Shu could already feel the sharp intent flying out of Yuheng Valley and enveloping his body.
The sharpness that clearly didn’t feel very powerful enveloped Zhou Shu’s body, making him feel as if he had fallen into a furnace.
The heat was not violent. It was like a spring breeze turning into rain. In an instant, he felt the temperature of every cell in his body rapidly rise, and his entire body seemed to be melting.
Such uniform heating was simply a smelting furnace that forgers dreamed of.
Under these circumstances, Zhou Shu still didn’t forget to sigh with emotion.
The next moment, he felt pain.
He didn’t dare to think too much about it. He snorted coldly and activated the Visualization of the Five Mountains’ True Form and Eight-Nine Arcane Art at the same time!
A faint light appeared on the surface of his body, resisting the sharpness of the Heaven and Earth Furnace.
Zhou Shu gradually ignored the pain in his body and entered an incomparably clear state.
The Visualization of the Five Mountains’ True Form and the Eight-Nine Arcane Art were the most powerful cultivation techniques he had mastered. The two complemented each other, allowing him to withstand the sharp attack for a moment.
But although the sharpness was not very violent, it was like the water of a river, endless.
Even though he was temporarily resisting it, if this continued, the spiritual essence in his body would be exhausted sooner or later. At that time, under the smelting of the Heaven and Earth Furnace, he would probably turn into ashes and disappear from the world forever.
Zhou Shu frowned slightly. At this point, he hadn’t even seen the true form of the Heaven and Earth Furnace.
This was equivalent to fighting to the death without even seeing the enemy’s appearance. If he died, it would be too aggrieving.
As Zhou Shu thought this, he stood up.
He didn’t believe that he couldn’t deal with a broken Heaven and Earth Furnace!
No matter how powerful the Heaven and Earth Furnace was, it was still a weapon.
As long as it was a weapon, it had to behave when it was in Zhou Shu’s hands!
His eyes narrowed slightly as he took a step in the direction of the sharp aura.
If there were other people in Yuheng Valley, they would definitely find his actions very strange.
His movements were extremely slow, and a single step took an incense stick of time to complete.
It was as if time had slowed down…
Zhou Shu had walked for two hours, but he had yet to cross the three-meter distance.
But in his self-awareness, all his movements were as usual.
Zhou Shu had already noticed this extreme contrast from the beginning.
He seemed to sense that this Heaven and Earth Furnace might be the source of the difference in the flow of time between the grotto-heaven and the outside world.
And there was also the scene of refining everything in the world he had just seen in his illusion.
The black and yellow qi that came from refining everything in the world might be the secret of the Grotto-Heaven realm.
No wonder Shi Changsheng was so confident when he spoke of the Grotto-Heaven realm. The Grotto-Heaven realm was indeed worlds apart from those below it.
But this comprehension wasn’t very helpful to Zhou Shu’s current situation. It was impossible for him to break through to the Grotto-Heaven realm overnight.
Even if he could break through, the gap between someone who had just entered the Grotto-Heaven realm and someone at the peak of the Grotto-Heaven realm was too great. This Heaven and Earth Furnace had belonged to the master of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain, who had been at the peak of the Grotto-Heaven realm. Ordinary Grotto-Heaven realm experts were not its match.
For example, Demon King Ao, Tiangou, and the others knew how powerful they were, so they didn’t dare to enter Yuheng Valley easily.
The more Zhou Shu walked forward, the more he felt the power of the Heaven and Earth Furnace. The temperature of his body had already reached a terrifying level. If not for the fact that he had cultivated the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique, the Golden Bell Shield Technique, and the Eight-Nine Arcane Art, his body would have been incinerated.
Even so, he felt that he was about to reach his limit. It was like a forging material. If the temperature was any higher, it would turn into liquid…
“Heaven and earth are the furnace; his copper, all things of creation.
“Since you want to smelt me, I’ll do as you wish! I will use my body as a weapon and reforge it in the furnace. I want to see what kind of peerless divine weapon you can forge my body into!”
Zhou Shu’s eyes became abnormally bright, and his body began to emit a fiery red light. The pain of being in the furnace was definitely beyond the imagination of ordinary people. But his state of mind was becoming calmer and calmer. With a thought, he wanted to use the Heaven and Earth Furnace to do something unprecedented!
