Shi Changsheng said proudly, “Although this Heavenly Hub Armory is a nine heavens divine weapon, my Longevity Sword isn’t afraid of it.”
Zhou Shu glanced at Shi Changsheng. He had never been able to see through him, or rather, the Longevity Sword.
This Longevity Sword was ordinary at first. At first glance, it looked like a heaven-grade weapon. Later, after interacting with it more, the Longevity Sword could erupt with impressive strength from time to time.
At least for now, ordinary connate divine weapons didn’t have the power of the Longevity Sword.
As for the Armament Manual of the Heavenly Mountain Villa, others felt that it was reasonable, but Zhou Shu had never taken it seriously.
Sometimes, a weapon was as complicated as a person. It wasn’t so simple to judge them.
And this Longevity Sword was a very complicated weapon.
Zhou Shu believed Shi Changsheng when he said that he wasn’t afraid of the Heavenly Hub Armory.
After all, Shi Changsheng had also been the owner of a grotto-heaven back then. He had been on the same level as the owner of the Heavenly Hub Armory.
But Shi Changsheng had already turned into a sword. It was really hard to say who was stronger between him and the Heavenly Hub Armory.
Moreover, since he had come to the Heavenly Hub Armory, Zhou Shu didn’t intend to return empty-handed.
With the help of the Longevity Sword, he might be able to escape successfully. But Mi Ziwen, Yang Hong, and even Lu Wenshuang were still in the hands of Tushan. How could Zhou Shu leave alone?
“Old Shi, is every level of the Heavenly Hub Armory as big as the Zhuling Grotto-Heaven?” Zhou Shu observed his surroundings and didn’t sense any danger for the time being.
“Say, young fellow, didn’t I tell you? The Heavenly Hub Armory doesn’t belong to my family. It’s my first time here. How do I know how big it is?” Shi Changsheng said angrily.
“I thought you were well-informed, Elder…” Zhou Shu said.
“I’m well informed, that’s for sure.” Shi Changsheng nodded. “Let me tell you. Back then, the one surnamed Diao fused the Heavenly Hub Armory with his Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain to gain his strength.
“After his body was gone, the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain shattered. It’s impossible for the Heavenly Hub Armory to be intact. Therefore, the Heavenly Hub Armory is at most a broken weapon now.
“Don’t even think about refining it. But there should be no problem getting some benefits out of it.
“Since you don’t want to leave, I’ll give you some pointers. If you find anything, how about we split thirty-seventy?”
“That wouldn’t be nice of me. Old Shi, you’re only taking thirty%. Isn’t that too little?” Zhou Shu said.
“Bullshit. Thirty for you, seventy for me!” Shi Changsheng said.
“No!” Zhou Shu shook his head. “Old Shi, you’re not at your peak now. You still need my help. I’ll give you forty percent at most!”
“Forty percent? Do you think I’m a beggar? Fifty percent! Any less, and you won’t hear another word from me!” Shi Changsheng said angrily.
“Deal!”
A look of triumph came into both their eyes.
Shi Changsheng said that he had never entered the Heavenly Hub Armory, but he clearly knew much more about it than Zhou Shu.
Under Shi Changsheng’s guidance, Zhou Shu continued forward and quickly found a golden mountain.
That’s right, a mountain of gold!
A thousand-foot-tall mountain of gold!
“Is the owner of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain so rich?”
Even with Zhou Shu’s knowledge, he couldn’t help but be dumbfounded. How much gold was in this mountain of gold?
The key was that this golden mountain was not naturally formed.
“Of course. The Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain is the ancestor of forging. They had the most forgers in the world. Eighty percent of the weapons in the world came from the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain. How much money do you think they made?” Shi Changsheng curled his lips. “That Diao fellow has bad taste. Who is he showing off to?”
Zhou Shu nodded in deep agreement.
Gold was extremely precious to ordinary people, but to people with their cultivation…
But a golden mountain indeed looked exciting…
Zhou Shu licked his lips. How could he move this mountain of gold back?
With a mountain of gold, wouldn’t he become the richest man in the Ten Nations when he returned to the Ten Nations Continent?
“I know which level of the Heavenly Hub Armory this is,” Shi Changsheng continued. “This mountain of gold was placed at the entrance to bluff people.
“This is just the first heaven. There’s nothing good here,” Shi Changsheng said with disdain.
This is only the first heaven? If there’s a gold mountain in the first heaven, wouldn’t the other levels…
Although gold itself might not be much, if there was enough of it, it would be different.
Even if one bought forging materials using the gold from this mountain of gold, one could buy countless precious forging materials.
“Old Shi, how do we go to the next level?” Along the way, Zhou Shu roughly understood the size of this space.
This place was much smaller than the Zhuling Grotto-Heaven. It was only a thousand miles wide.
The environment was not as beautiful as the Zhuling Grotto-Heaven. Instead, there were dilapidated scenes everywhere, as if a huge earthquake had occurred.
This scene also made Zhou Shu believe Shi Changsheng’s words. Perhaps the Heavenly Hub Armory was really just a broken weapon.
It seemed that the only thing that remained intact and valuable in the first heaven was this mountain of gold.
“To get in the door, of course, you have to have a key,” Shi Changsheng said.
