854 Otherworldly Divine Iron, The Laws of Time (1)
Ji Lutian smiled without saying anything.
Zhou Shu wasn’t the only one who objected to his ideas.
Since he had chosen this path, he didn’t care about any criticism.
As for objections or even hostility, he didn’t care at all.
Compared to Zhou Shu’s ruthless words, after the divine weapons were successfully forged, he would have to face the true predicament when he went to find those Grotto-heaven realm experts.
At that time, there would inevitably be a fight.
“Mr. Ji, where are the unfinished divine weapons you mentioned?” Zhou Shu said.
He was a straightforward person. Since he agreed to help Ji Lutian, there was no need to delay.
To be honest, he wasn’t optimistic about Ji Lutian’s plan.
Even if Ji Lutian had created a Divine Dao, there were probably not many martial artists willing to take this path.
For example, in the myths and legends of Zhou Shu’s previous life, if not for the Investiture of the Gods, how many cultivators would have been willing to become gods?
Wasn’t it good to be a carefree immortal?
How similar was Ji Lutian’s path to the legendary Investiture of the Gods?
“Come with me.” Ji Lutian stepped into the air and rose into the sky.
Zhou Shu turned around and looked at the camp. The people of Great Xia were gradually moving into the Sima Grotto-Heaven. Even without him around, there wouldn’t be any problems for the time being.
He would use this time to solve Ji Lutian’s matter and return the favor he owed him.
With a step, Zhou Shu rose into the air and chased after Ji Lutian.
Ji Lutian was actually heading into the depths of the Endless Sea.
He flew hundreds of kilometers into the Endless Sea, then dived down and entered the seawater.
The Endless Sea was boundless. No one knew how big it was or how deep it was.
Zhou Shu followed behind Ji Lutian and dived for more than two hours. With their speed, they had probably already dived hundreds of kilometers.
There was no longer any light around them. Even with Zhou Shu’s eyesight, his surroundings had become pitch-black.
At this moment, Ji Lutian’s body lit up slightly, guiding the route like a beacon.
After diving for another six or so hours, just as Zhou Shu felt that they had already dived more than ten thousand kilometers, a ball of red light suddenly appeared in front of them.
Zhou Shu looked over. The ball of red light was a volcano!
At the bottom of the Endless Sea, there was actually an active volcano that was constantly erupting!
The hot magma kept rolling. Even from afar, Zhou Shu could feel the fiery heat assaulting him.
Strangely, the active volcano seemed to be separated from the sea. Magma spewed and churned in the crater, but it didn’t merge with the seawater.
Ji Lutian didn’t stop. He stepped into the range of the volcano without hesitation.
His body flashed with light, and the light isolated the magma. He stood in the middle of the magma and waved at Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu didn’t hesitate and stepped forward. After a slight delay, he also entered the isolated space.
The temperature within the entire range of the volcano was extremely high. Zhou Shu felt that ordinary steel would melt into molten iron under this temperature.
But his body was sturdier than gold and iron. This temperature couldn’t do anything to him.
He didn’t even use his protective divine light and arrived beside Ji Lutian.
Ji Lutian glanced at Zhou Shu, a look of appreciation flashing across his face.
“The first divine weapon is here,” Ji Lutian said. “I can’t remember exactly how many years ago it was. I once obtained a piece of otherworldly divine iron.
“Even without forging, otherworldly divine iron still has some characteristics of a divine weapon. It can be big or small and can change indefinitely. Most importantly, ordinary heavenly fires can’t do anything to it.
“So I placed it here and used the fire of the earth’s core to temper it.
“After so many years, it should have already been tempered. But I’m hesitating about what divine weapon to use it to forge, so I’ll have to trouble you to do it.”
Ji Lutian pointed at the volcanic magma.
In the churning magma, a black head-sized stone was bobbing up and down.
“It can be big or small?” Zhou Shu looked curiously at the otherworldly divine iron in the magma.
With his Forging Materials Knowledge, he knew the characteristics of tens of thousands of forging materials like the back of his hand. But there were really no forging materials that matched Ji Lutian’s description.
But this wasn’t strange. There were more than a billion types of forging materials in the world. Even he couldn’t know all of them.
“Since it can already be big or small and change indefinitely, even if you don’t forge it, can’t you just use it as a divine weapon?” Zhou Shu said casually.
“Yes, of course. But it’s still just an incomplete item. Wouldn’t it be too wasteful to do that?” Ji Lutian smiled. “This otherworldly divine iron is extraordinary. If we use it as the main material to forge a connate divine weapon, we will definitely be able to forge an earth-shattering connate divine weapon!”
Ji Lutian was also an expert in forging. By him saying this, it naturally meant that otherworldly divine iron was indeed a good forging material.
In the path of forging, the better the materials, the better the weapon forged. This was an ironclad rule.
Even Zhou Shu admitted the existence of this ironclad rule. It was impossible for him to use ordinary iron to forge a connate divine weapon.
If this otherworldly divine iron was really as good as Ji Lutian said, then he was really interested in using it to forge a connate divine weapon.
