BXBX NOVEL Chapter 917 Heaven-Splitting Axe (2)
The Black Feather King's pupils constricted, and his face was full of fear.
The next moment, the Black Feather King let out a loud cry and turned around to escape.
"The Asura King is already dead. Who dares to fight our giant spirit race?!" The Giant Spirit King raised the Xuanhua Axe high and let out a furious roar.
"Who dares to fight our giant spirit race?!" giant spirits shouted in unison.
The king of the asura race was dead, and the king of the black feather race had escaped.
The remaining soldiers looked at each other and scattered like wild birds.
Seeing that the warriors of the giant spirit race were about to chase, the Giant Spirit King said, "Don't chase after them!"
He coughed up a mouthful of blood and swayed.
If he hadn't used the axe to support his body in time, he would have fallen to the ground.
When the giant spirits saw him, they hurriedly stopped in their tracks. A few of them even ran to the Giant Spirit King and supported him.
The Giant Spirit King gasped for a long time before he was able to catch his breath.
He shook his head and pushed everyone away. Then he grabbed the axe and quickly walked to the front of the stronghold. Facing Zhou Shu, he knelt on the ground. "Thank you, Brother Zhou, for saving my giant spirit race!"
"You don't have to thank me." Zhou Shu seemed to be a little distracted. "You saved yourselves. I didn't do anything."
"If not for your weapon, I definitely wouldn't have been able to kill the Asura King. Not only would I not have been able to kill the Asura King, but I would have also died at his hands today," the Giant Spirit King said solemnly. "I used to doubt your ability, Brother Zhou. I apologize. From now on, my giant spirit race will listen to your orders!"
"It's just a collaboration," Zhou Shu said indifferently. "We've already agreed that half of your gains will belong to me. I wouldn't want anything bad to happen.
"In addition, let me say this first. Although I've given you the weapon, it doesn't belong to you yet."
"Huh?" the Giant Spirit King said in surprise.
"I don't know what you usually use to trade for things, but I don't think the things you eat and use come out of thin air. If you have business transactions with other races, others won't give items to you for free, right?" Zhou Shu said calmly.
"I understand. Brother Zhou, what can I use to exchange for this weapon?" The Giant Spirit King gripped the handle of the axe tightly, as if he was afraid that it would be snatched away.
He had already tasted the power of the weapon and could no longer bear to give it up.
For it, he could give up everything he had.
"Brilliant." Zhou Shu smiled. The Giant Spirit King, Cang Huan, was indeed clear-headed.
Zhou Shu felt much more at ease dealing with such a person, and his mood improved greatly.
"Giant Spirit King, this weapon is called the Heaven-Splitting Axe, the first axe to split the heavens and earth. It can be considered the first connate divine weapon in this world," Zhou Shu said with a strange expression.
His Celestial Thearch Sword had already appeared.
But the Celestial Thearch Sword came from the future. It was not wrong to say that the Heaven-Splitting Axe was the first connate divine weapon to be created.
Cang Huan was a little puzzled, but he was very smart. Whatever Zhou Shu said was right. As long as he could obtain this Heaven-Splitting Axe, no matter how ridiculous Zhou Shu's words were, he would nod in agreement.
"Is it called the Heaven-Splitting Axe? What a nice name," Cang Huan said.
Ji Lutian rolled his eyes. The Giant Spirit King is so big. How can he be so shameless when he's flattering him?
Zhou Shu continued, "Back to the topic at hand. This Heaven-Splitting Axe is the first connate divine weapon created in the world, and it's also our first transaction. I will give you a discount. You just have to make up for the materials that I used to forge this Heaven-Splitting Axe. I won't ask you for any labor fees."
"The materials that you used to forge the Heaven-Splitting Axe?" Cang Huan was puzzled.
"I'll give you a list. I don't think your race has any. You can follow the map and send people to find them." Zhou Shu looked at the continuous mountains in the distance and was slightly excited.
At this time, the art of forging hasn't been developed yet. There are so many forging materials that have yet to be mined, and these good things are all mine.
"Alright!" Cang Huan said without hesitation. "As long as it exists in this world, no matter how difficult, I will definitely find it for you, Brother Zhou!"
"It's not that exaggerated." Zhou Shu shook his head.
Although he called it the Heaven-Splitting Axe, it was incomparable to the legendary Heaven-Splitting Axe.
Zhou Shu just felt that this name sounded good. In fact, the Heaven-Splitting Axe was just an ordinary connate divine weapon and hadn't used many rare forging materials.
Zhou Shu indeed had no intention of earning anything from the Giant Spirit King. In any case, half of the gains of the giant spirit race would belong to him in the future. If he wanted to collect forging materials, he had plenty of opportunities.
"Since we've settled this, let's talk about something else now." Zhou Shu looked at Cang Huan. "I heard the Asura King and the Black Feather King talking about the secret of the fire race. They attacked the giant spirit race for this, right?"
"Uhh…" Cang Huan's expression was conflicted. "Brother Zhou, it's not that I want to hide it from you, but I promised someone."
"If it's not convenient to talk about it, you don't have to say it." Zhou Shu shook his head. "I was just asking. It has nothing to do with me anyway."
Cang Huan's expression was grim. After a while, he said, "Brother Zhou, please forgive me. This matter concerns the life and death of others, so I can't talk about it casually."
"Understood." Zhou Shu nodded. "But it seems that the asura race and the black feather race won't let this matter rest. Giant Spirit King, a man's wealth is his own ruin by causing others greed. The asura race and the black feather race might not be the only ones tempted by the secret of the fire race. You have to consider if your giant spirit race can withstand it if more races attack later."
Zhou Shu was indeed not very interested in the secret of the fire race. He was only worried that the secret of the fire race would attract too many enemies to the giant spirit race.
He was still counting on the giant spirit race to return to the future. If they attracted too many enemies, they might be exterminated.
"Uhh…" Cang Huan frowned. What Zhou Shu said wasn't impossible.
"If I'm not wrong, the fire race was exterminated because of this secret, right?" Zhou Shu continued. "The strength of the fire race was probably not inferior to that of the giant spirit race. If I were you, I would consider whether it's worth it to sacrifice the lives of my entire race for a secret.
"If it were me, I would directly throw out that secret and let other races fight among themselves…"
Zhou Shu shrugged. "Of course, this concerns the giant spirit race. I'm just suggesting. As for how to do it, it's up to you."
"I…" Cang Huan struggled internally. On the one hand, it was the lives of the giant spirit race. On the other hand, it was his promise to someone. It was really too difficult to make a decision.
Cang Huan gritted his teeth. "Brother Zhou, I can't do what you said!"
"I told you. What you do is your business. I'm just making a suggestion," Zhou Shu said. "After all, I don't even know what that secret is."
"Brother Zhou, I'll tell you the secret. Help me think of a way," Cang Huan said with a pleading expression. "You're knowledgeable. You can definitely think of a way."
He looked around and waved his hand, indicating for all the giant spirits to disperse. Then he leaned in front of Zhou Shu and whispered something.
Zhou Shu's expression changed, and he frowned tightly. "Are you serious?"
"Why would I joke about such a thing?" Cang Huan said with a solemn expression. "It's absolutely true. That's why I can't just ignore it!"
"Nonsense. If you dare to ignore it, I'll be the first not to let you off!" Zhou Shu said angrily. "Let me think about it. Damn it. How could such a thing happen!"
Zhou Shu couldn't help cursing.
