Zhang Chunlin nodded. âI understand.
âDonât worry. I promise that no one will see through this Demon King Palace I forged!â
Zhang Chunlin was good at this kind of work!
Zhou Shu nodded. This was an easy task for an old fox like Zhang Chunlin, who had once climbed to a high position in the bureaucracy.
âBy the way, try to use as few forging materials as possible,â Zhou Shu added. âThey are all ours. Itâll be a waste to leave them for Hu Li.â
Zhang Chunlin nodded in agreement. âThatâs right. Good things must not be left to demonic beasts!
âI plan to use mud to make the main body of the Demon King Palace. There will be a layer of forging materials on the outside. Demonic beasts are not smart enough to see through it.
âBy the time they realize the problem, weâll have long run away. We wonât have to worry about them coming after us.â
Zhou Shu gave him a thumbs-up. How black-hearted. He had only wanted to use ordinary iron to build the Demon King Palace, but Zhang Chunlin actually wanted to use mud.
But Zhou Shu liked his idea!
One had to be ruthless to demonic beasts!
âLetâs do it like this. If we manage to succeed, youâll get the credit!â Zhou Shu said.
âYou flatter me, Lord.â Zhang Chunlin smiled sinisterly. âI have to thank you for giving me a chance to take revenge.
âThe demonic beasts imprisoned me for twenty years. This is just collecting some interest from them.â
They looked at each other and burst out laughing. The next moment, they were both engrossed in their work.
Zhou Shu and Zhang Chunlin buried their heads in forging. It seemed like the two of them were busy, but there were countless forces supporting them from behind.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
There were more than a dozen Great Demons, more than a million demonic beasts, more than a hundred humans, and the demonic beasts well-versed in forging from the Nine Heavens Nine Sections that Ji Lutian had carefully nurtured for many years. Such strength was at least one-tenth of the entire Demon Realmâs strength.
Even Zhou Shu felt that it was impossible for him to have a second chance.
Unfortunately, he didnât have a second Divine Stone. Otherwise, he would even try to forge the Lingxiao Treasure Palace into a one-heaven divine weapon!
Although Zhou Shu didnât obtain the Demon Subduing Pagoda in the end, when he completed forging the Demon Subduing Pagoda, it was the first time he had peeked into another secret of connate divine weapons.
The connate divine weapons that Zhou Shu had forged previously were equivalent to the Earth Immortal realm.
Above this was the Grotto-Heaven realm!
In other words, as Shi Changsheng had always mentioned, it was the heavens of connate divine weapons!
Connate divine weapons contained heavens and earths, which was equivalent to a martial artist entering the Grotto-Heaven realm. The number of heavens and earths was the heaven level of connate divine weapons.
The Heavenly Hub Armory of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain was a nine-heaven divine weapon back then.
As for the Demon Subduing Pagoda that Zhou Shu had personally completed, it was a one-heaven divine weapon.
As for the Divine Stone, it was a necessary item in order for connate divine weapons to contain heavens and earths.
It was just like how Heaven Refining Stones were necessary for forging ranked weapons.
After experiencing the process of forging the Demon Subduing Pagoda, Zhou Shu had some understanding of forging one-heaven divine weapons.
But he didnât have any Divine Stones and didnât know where to obtain them, so there was no way to try.
If he could forge the Lingxiao Treasure Palace into a one-heaven divine weapon that contained one heaven and earth, Zhou Shu could completely store all the forging materials he had gathered.
No matter how many forging materials there were, he would be able to store them all in the one heaven.
This was much more convenient than Cosmic Bangles.
In the hollowed-out mountainside, Zhou Shu and Zhang Chunlin quietly forged.
Meanwhile, Hu Li was still energetically borrowing forging materials everywhere.
On this day, an uninvited guest arrived in the territory of Hu Li.
âLord Yao Aotian, I wonder if Yao Qing is free. I want to see him,â a rather handsome demonic beast youth said to Yin Chengshan with a flattering smile.
Yin Chengshanâs heart was in his throat.
He knew this demonic beast!
Not only did he know him, but he was quite familiar with him!
Yao Buqi had been captured alive by Zhou Shu at the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament. Later, he had simply joined Zhou Shu!
At the time, he had acted as a miner in the human camp, but he had often appeared in front of Yin Chengshan!
Unexpectedly, he had also escaped the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament space alive and came here.
Yin Chengshan forced himself to remain calm and expressionless.
Now, he could only believe that the kingâs divine ability wouldnât be easily seen through by him.
âNephew Yao Qing is helping Demon King Hu Li forge the Demon King Palace. Heâs busy,â Yin Chengshan said with a straight face.
âLord Yao Aotian, please pass the message.â Yao Buqi smiled. âYao Qing and I are friends who experienced adversity. I only came to look for him because of an important matter.â
âAs I said, Yao Qing is helping Demon King Hu Li build the Demon King Palace. Can you afford to delay Demon King Hu Liâs matter?â Yin Chengshan said coldly.
âNo, Lord Yao Aotian. I really have an important matter,â Yao Buqi said. âIt wonât take up too much of Yao Qingâs time. This is very important, but it concerns my life and Yao Qingâs.â
âAlarmist!â Yin Chengshan shouted coldly. âGet lost, or donât blame me for being ruthless!â
Yin Chengshan silently connected the Flaming Sunset Saber in his body and emitted a sharp aura.
Yao Buqi waved his hand. âLord Yao Aotian, Iâm really not lying.
âI think Demon King Hu Li wants Yao Qing to help him build the Demon King Palace, not to imprison him.â
Yao Buqi braced himself and said, âLord Yao Aotian, why donât you ask if Yao Qing has time to see me?
âIf he really doesnât have time, then Iâll turn around and leave. Iâll never come again!
âBy the way, Lord Yao Aotian, could you please show this to Yao Qing?â
Yao Buqi patted his head. A void beast lying on his shoulder opened its mouth and spat out something.
Yao Buqi handed the thing to Yin Chengshan with both hands.
Yin Chengshan felt his heart pounding. Fortunately, he wasnât inexperienced. Otherwise, his expression would have given him away.
Yao Buqi handed over a weapon with both hands. It was a Hundred Refinements Ring Pommel Saber!
âWhat do you mean by this?â Yin Chengshan said coldly. âWhy did you bring a lousy weapon from the human race here?
âAre you trying to mock Nephew Yao Qingâs identity? Or do you think itâs wrong for Nephew Yao Qing to build the Demon King Palace using the forging methods of humans?â
Yin Chengshan stared at Yao Buqi, wanting to see if he suspected something.
But it was impossible to tell from Yao Buqiâs face.
âPlease donât misunderstand me, Lord Yao Aotian,â Yao Buqi cried. âAs you know, Yao Qing and I were friends who went through thick and thin. We escaped from the humans together. This is our agreement. Heâll understand what I mean when he sees this.â
Yin Chengshanâs heart turned cold, and he immediately felt murderous. Yao Buqi and Yao Qing had an agreement? Didnât that mean that he could recognize the king?
This was going to be troublesome!
âWait,â Yin Chengshan said coldly after a moment of silence. âDonât wander around. Otherwise, if you ruin the matter of Demon King Hu Li, your parents wonât be able to afford it!â
Yin Chengshan grabbed the Hundred Refinements Ring Pommel Saber from Yao Buqi and instructed the surrounding demonic beasts, âKeep an eye on him. Donât let him wander off or leave until I get back!â
âYes, lord!â the demonic beasts said.
âLord Yao Aotian, donât worry. Iâll be right here. Iâm not going anywhere.â Yao Buqi kept bowing. âIâll wait for news from you, Lord Yao Aotian.
âPlease tell Yao Qing that I really have an important matter. Itâs extremely urgent!â
Yin Chengshan snorted and quickened his pace.
He had to quickly tell the king about this. If something went wrong, he would kill Yao Buqi first and then protect the king with his life!
