Legendary Armament Canon Novel - Chapter 293

He even thought that if he were Zhou Shu, he wouldn’t even tell his wife, children, and parents about this pill.

This pill was too heaven-defying!

Not to mention that his second brother was the King of the South, even if he was the emperor, he probably couldn’t stop the greed of others.

Second Brother, you trust me too much. Mi Ziwen smiled ruefully.

The more he understood the cruelty of the world, the more he knew the power of the Breakthrough Pill.

To be honest, for a moment, Mi Ziwen was even tempted.

Who could refuse a pill that could defy all conditions and allow one to directly break through?

I owe you a huge favor, Second Brother. How can I repay you?

Mi Ziwen rubbed his brow and forced himself to forget about the pill.

A pill allowed him to advance from a third-rank martial artist to a second-rank martial artist. More importantly, under such circumstances, the increase in his strength greatly increased his chances of survival.

Zhou Shu had saved his life.

Even if he was his brother, he owed him too much.

Mi Ziwen was already considering how he should repay his brother when he saw him again.

“General!” Seeing Mi Ziwen remain silent, the deputy general couldn’t help speaking.

“Deputy General!” Mi Ziwen also came to his senses. He restrained his aura and spoke as he stabilized his cultivation.

Actually, he didn’t need to stabilize his cultivation at all. The effect of the Breakthrough Pill was heaven-defying. Once he broke through, his cultivation became very stable. It was even better than ordinary cultivation breakthroughs.

Defying all conditions and directly breaking through was not as simple as it sounded.

“I had a sudden epiphany just now and made a slight breakthrough in my cultivation. I’ve probably attracted the attention of the demon army nearby.

“Pass the word to move immediately!

“Bring all the forging materials. Don’t leave anything behind!”

The order was given, and thousands of soldiers disappeared into the forest a moment later, like a drop of water blending into the sea without leaving a trace.

Mi Ziwen, the successor of Great Xia’s supreme-ruler of War, lived up to his reputation!

Not long after they disappeared, a demon army appeared. Among the army, there was an existence with a powerful aura that was not inferior to an ordinary first-rank martial artist.

If Mi Ziwen and his army were still here and faced this demon beast army led by a first-rank martial artist, the outcome could be imagined.

While Mi Ziwen was leading the army, battles were happening everywhere in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament.

The ten nations’ armies were at a disadvantage. Many of them had even been wiped out.

In contrast, the Huaxia Pavilion’s Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament branch seemed to be in the eye of the storm and was temporarily calm.

The 5,000-strong Demon Realm army led by Yao Qing was stationed dozens of kilometers away from the Huaxia Pavilion’s Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament branch. They neither left nor attacked.

Seeing Zhou Shu and Shi Songtao return, Yin Wuyou, Mei Wushang, and the others, who had been uneasy, heaved a sigh of relief.

They had felt very strange just now.

There were clearly only a hundred of them, but the 5,000-strong demonic beast army didn’t dare to attack them.

This had already puzzled Mei Wushang and the others.

What puzzled them even more was that there were hundreds of demonic beasts mining without rest in the camp!

This simply made Mei Wushang and the others admire Zhou Shu more than anything.

When Zhou Shu was not around, they were unable to feel at ease.

Not to mention the 5,000-strong Demon Realm army in the distance, just the hundreds of demonic beasts in the camp were not something that a hundred of them could deal with.

When Zhou Shu wasn’t around, Yin Wuyou’s sword never left Yao Buqi’s neck.

She wasn’t as confident as Zhou Shu. Even if Yao Buqi’s cultivation was sealed, he was still a first-rank martial artist. She didn’t dare to relax for a moment.

“Did this kid create any trouble?” Zhou Shu glanced at Yao Buqi.

Yin Wuyou shook her head. “No.”

Yao Buqi glanced at him and closed his eyes.

Why should I run?

My plan to catch a turtle in a jar has not failed yet!

“Everyone, work hard for a while more,” Zhou Shu said. “Deputy Master Shi and I will be forging. Keep an eye on them. If anything happens, deal with it first.

“When I come out of seclusion, we’ll get rid of those guys outside!”

“Don’t worry, Your Highness. As long as we’re alive, we won’t let anyone disturb you!” Mei Wushang said solemnly.

Zhou Shu nodded and led Shi Songtao into a stone house.

Shi Songtao had no complaints. To be able to personally see Zhou Shu upgrade the Great Destroyer Sword was definitely an opportunity that he could only wish for!

On the surface, his forger rank was higher than Zhou Shu’s.

But Shi Songtao knew that he was far inferior to Zhou Shu.

Forget him. He even thought those Grand Craftsmen couldn’t compare to Zhou Shu.

So what if they could forge heaven-grade weapons?

Who among them could upgrade a weapon?

Shi Songtao would definitely be able to forge a heaven-grade weapon in the future.

But Shi Songtao knew that he wouldn’t be able to upgrade a weapon no matter how much time he was given.

In the stone room, Zhou Shu sat cross-legged. He used his supreme ability Unparalleled Benevolence again and shared the Iron Smelting Hands Technique with Shi Songtao.

Recently, the power of his Iron Smelting Hands Technique has improved again. His supreme ability Unparalleled Benevolence was unparalleled. It was enough for Shi Songtao to have half the cultivation of his Iron Smelting Hands Technique.

“Prepare the materials as I told you,” Zhou Shu said.

Upgrading a weapon was no different from performing a major surgery.

Zhou Shu could actually do it alone, but with Shi Songtao’s help, he would save some time.

Leaving the chore of handling the forging materials to Shi Songtao, he just had to focus on the Great Destroyer Sword.

Shi Songtao nodded solemnly. His hands turned red as he began to deal with the forging materials they had collected from the mountains over the past few days.

Zhou Shu began to refine the blood silver.

The blood silver turned into liquid threads in Zhou Shu’s hand.

Zhou Shu flicked his fingers, and the liquid threads continuously wrapped around the Great Destroyer Sword.

Before long, the Great Destroyer Sword was wrapped in a huge cocoon.

The cocoon seemed to be made of silver lines that continued to wrap around the sword.

The entire scene looked abnormally gorgeous.

“Crimson steel!” Zhou Shu shouted.

Shi Songtao came to his senses and raised his hands. The melted crimson steel flew toward Zhou Shu.

Zhou Shu circled his hands, and the fiery red solution turned into countless raindrops that accurately landed on the cocoon.

With a soft squelch, the fiery rain melted into the cocoon.

The silver filaments on the cocoon seemed to slowly turn red.

“Turmeric crystal!” Zhou Shu shouted again.

Shi Songtao cooperated again.

Zhou Shu kept calling out the names of forging materials, and Shi Songtao cooperated very well. As long as Zhou Shu shouted, he would immediately throw out the corresponding forging materials.

One by one, the forging materials were sprinkled on the cocoon.

The silkworm cocoon had already become colorful, making one lose themselves in it.

Shi Songtao could see that the solution formed by each forging material landed in a different position on the cocoon precisely.

He could never do this. He didn’t even know how many calculations Zhou Shu had done in his mind. This was simply unbelievable.

“The upgrading of a weapon is a process of reformation. Most importantly, it is the matching of the properties of the forging materials,” Zhou Shu said slowly as he moved.

Shi Songtao knew that Zhou Shu was giving him pointers. He held his breath and focused. He firmly remembered every word Zhou Shu said.

Just as Zhou Shu and Shi Songtao were immersed in the stone room, another demon army suddenly appeared and headed straight for the Huaxia Pavilion’s Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament branch.
