Chapter 327: Aren’t You Great Qin’s Side-by-side King? (2)
“Did you save me?”
Previously, Cao Chenyang had been too busy talking about the Demon Realm to think about the cultivation technique that had appeared in his mind. Now, he finally realized it.
“How did you do it?”
“You mean?” Zhou Shu said curiously.
“The cultivation technique in my head.” Cao Chenyang pointed at his head.
He felt very complicated. Not to mention how he had instilled such a divine technique into his mind, but he owed Zhou Shu too much.
He was even hesitating if he needed to kneel down and acknowledge him as his master!
Cao Chenyang wasn’t an ordinary person. He was a first-rank martial artist, and his cultivation and knowledge were extraordinary.
He naturally knew the value of the God of War Catalog!
It was not an exaggeration to say that the God of War Catalog was worth more than his life!
Cao Chenyang even felt that if he really cultivated the 49 illustrations successfully, he might even break through the first rank of the Martial Dao!
It had to be known that Ji Lutian and Great Qin had spent more than a hundred years and even gambled on the fate of the nation just so that Great Qin could produce a peerless expert above the first rank.
Now, he felt that as long as he cultivated these 49 illustrations, he might be able to reach that realm. How could Cao Chenyang not feel complicated?
“It’s one of my secret divine abilities,” Zhou Shu said. “Its duration is limited. When the time is up, you’ll forget everything about it.”
“Everything?” Cao Chenyang was stunned.
He was just thinking that he could break through to a higher realm by cultivating this technique. Now, he was told he would forget everything after a while.
A thought suddenly appeared in Cao Chenyang’s mind.
Looking up, he saw Zhou Shu’s half-smile.
A shudder went through his mind, and he grimaced.
Cao Chenyang, oh, Cao Chenyang, have you become a beast after staying in the Demon Realm for so long?
The person in front of you is your savior. Instead of repaying his kindness, you want to scheme for his cultivation technique?
Cao Chenyang’s eyes regained clarity as he cupped his hands and said seriously, “Your Highness, I will remember your kindness. If there’s a chance, I will definitely repay you generously!”
Zhou Shu saw the change in Cao Chenyang’s eyes and nodded.
Fortunately, I saved a good person.
If he was really greedy for the God of War Catalog, I wouldn’t have let him go easily.
I’ve killed a first-rank martial artist before.
I have yet to use the Abyss Rainbow Sword.
“You’re welcome.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “You’re lucky. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to save you.”
Cao Chenyang was a first-rank martial artist. The Breakthrough Pill was ineffective for him. His previous reaction was not that his body couldn’t withstand the transformation after breaking through the realm but that the Breakthrough Pill didn’t work at all.
Zhou Shu hadn’t expected the God of War Catalog to be useful.
In the end, Cao Chenyang was lucky.
Otherwise, even if Zhou Shu shared the God of War Catalog with him, he might not have been able to survive.
“Your Highness, has Great Liang’s army really been wiped out?” Cao Chenyang was not a pretentious person. He was not just saying words of gratitude. There was no need to keep thanking Zhou Shu.
“Senior Cao, you don’t believe me?” Zhou Shu said. “Han Dazhi is in the military camp. You can ask him yourself.
“To be honest, Senior Cao, although the full-scale arrival of the Demon Realm that you’re worried about won’t happen in a short time, the army sent by the Demon Realm during this Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament is already powerful enough.
“As far as I know, there is one great demon in the Demon Realm and a hundred first-rank demonic beasts, and the number of demonic beast soldiers is uncountable.”
When the Ten Imperial Cauldrons opened the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament battlefield, it would let in a group of people from the Demon Realm. Then the passageway would close, and the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament would become a sealed space until it opened again three years later.
Cao Chenyang was worried that the collapse of Great Qin’s Imperial Cauldron would cause the barrier of this space to shatter.
But it only meant that the Ten Nations would not immediately face a calamity.
Just the current Demon Realm army alone was enough to make the armies of the various nations participating in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament suffer.
Didn’t Great Liang’s army get wiped out?
Zhou Shu and the others didn’t know that Great Liang was not the only nation that had been wiped out.
Cough cough—
Cao Chenyang coughed twice. “Your Highness, Great Liang’s army has been completely wiped out. I have nowhere to go now. I want to stay with Great Xia for the time being. May I?”
“You’re most welcome!” Zhou Shu laughed.
Although Cao Chenyang was injured, he was still a first-rank martial artist.
His camp was still too weak, and the high-end combat power mainly relied on him alone.
The middle and low-level combat power was almost negligible.
Speaking of which, if he hadn’t been lucky, his camp would have been razed to the ground by the Demon Realm army.
It was naturally a good thing for the camp to have another first-rank martial artist.
“By the way, Senior Cao, the Ten Nations have sent many spies to the Demon Realm over the years, but no one has returned. You should be the first to return from the Demon Realm. How many people from the Ten Nations are there in the Demon Realm now?” Zhou Shu asked.
Previously, he had planned to get the people back through Yao Qing. He naturally had to find out more now.
“There were originally a few,” Cao Chenyang said with an ugly expression. “But now, they’re probably all dead due to that bastard Xiao Ziping.
“Your Highness, although I’m injured, if your nation wants to conquer Great Wei, I’m willing to be your pawn!”
Cao Chenyang hated Great Wei to the core. As a first-rank martial artist, he even said such words. It was evident how strong his hatred was.
“Don’t worry, Senior Cao. There will be a chance for revenge,” Zhou Shu said. “Senior Cao, do you know where there are spatial rifts that can lead to the Demon Realm?”
“I don’t know.” Cao Chenyang shook his head. “Ji Lutian told me that these spatial rifts are caused by the damage to the Imperial Cauldron. The location and time of their appearance are all random and extremely unstable.”
“I see,” Zhou Shu said regretfully.
He was still wondering if he could make a trip to the Demon Realm.
One of the materials needed to upgrade the Great Destroyer Sword to an earth-grade weapon was unique to the Demon Realm.
“What do you want to do, Your Highness?” Cao Chenyang asked curiously.
Zhou Shu briefly explained his thoughts. Cao Chenyang’s eyes widened.
Who was this King of the South of Great Xia?
Others avoided the Demon Realm, but he actually wanted to take the initiative to go to the Demon Realm just to find a forging material!
Are all forgers mad?
It was the same for Ji Lutian back then!
Cao Chenyang pondered and said, “If you only want materials for forging weapons, you don’t have to go to the Demon Realm.
“When I left the Demon Realm, Ji Lutian gave me some things. If I’m not wrong, there might be the forging material you need.”
“Oh? You’re giving me what Ji Lutian gave you?” Zhou Shu said.
“Ji Lutian gave me them to hand over to Great Qin. Your Highness, aren’t you Great Qin’s Side-by-side King? There’s no difference giving it to you.”
Zhou Shu couldn’t help laughing. This was true. He didn’t expect that being Great Qin’s Side-by-side King would have such benefits.
But…
He looked Cao Chenyang up and down.
When Cao Chenyang was carried back by Yang Hong, he was already seriously injured and unconscious. He didn’t bring anything with him.
Could he have lost them somewhere in the Demon Realm?
“Is Ji Lutian dead? What did he give you?” Zhou Shu asked.
“He’s still alive. He has a special status in the Demon Realm. The Demon Realm won’t kill him easily, but it’s difficult for him to be free,” Cao Chenyang said. “He handed this to me. I’m not sure what it is exactly.”
Cao Chenyang took out something and handed it to Zhou Shu.
“I’ve now handed it to you, Your Highness. I, Cao Chenyang, have completed Ji Lutian’s request.”
Zhou Shu subconsciously took the item Cao Chenyang handed him. It was a light piece of animal skin.
“Is this what Ji Lutian wanted you to bring back to Great Qin? A treasure map?”
