Originally, they wouldn’t be so surprised if there were a few more weapons in the Connate Armament Manual. But the more they learned, the more they understood how difficult it was to forge connate divine weapons.
When they saw more than ten connate divine weapons suddenly appear on the Connate Armament Manual, their first reaction was not to be happy about the increase in the strength of the human race but to be worried about the origin of these connate divine weapons.
Connate divine weapons not only meant strength but also danger.
“Don’t you think we’re being paranoid?” Shi Songtao looked at Li Chengliang. “It’s just a few more connate divine weapons in the Connate Armament Manual. Why are we so nervous?”
Li Chengliang replied, “I know that too. But for some reason, I keep feeling uneasy after seeing this Connate Armament Manual.”
“That’s because you haven’t completely comprehended the forging technique of connate divine weapons yet, right?” Shi Songtao said. “You’re worried that someone will successfully forge a connate divine weapon before you—”
Before Shi Songtao could finish speaking, a loud shout came from outside.
“Surnamed Shi, you have a guest.”
It was Yao Buqi’s voice.
Shi Songtao’s face darkened. He had been at odds with Yao Buqi on the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament battlefield. Ever since he came to the Two Region Mountain, Yao Buqi would come to him from time to time to tease him.
With the overall situation in mind, Shi Songtao had always endured it.
“Grand Craftsman Li, don’t worry so much for now. Go ahead and do your work. I’ll go see what Yao Buqi is up to,” Shi Songtao said and walked out with a black face.
…
Outside the Ten Nations Alliance camp, Shi Songtao looked at Yao Buqi and said angrily, “Yao Buqi, what are you trying to do?”
“Say, surnamed Shi, there’s a saying among you humans that one has to bow their head under the eaves. Now, you’re under my eaves. Who are you putting on such a long face for?” Yao Buqi said.
“If you don’t understand human language, then don’t say it. Is this how you use ‘one has to bow their head under the eaves’?” Shi Songtao snorted. “If you have something to say, say it. I’m busy.”
“Heh, you still have a temper.” Yao Buqi pursed his lips. “Take a look at this.”
He casually threw something out.
Shi Songtao was shocked. His cultivation was far inferior to Yao Buqi’s. If Yao Buqi ambushed him, he wouldn’t be able to fight back at all.
“You…” Shi Songtao’s aura erupted as he hurriedly caught what Yao Buqi threw at him.
“Look at your guts.” Yao Buqi said disdainfully. “If I wanted to kill you, I could kill you with one finger.”
Shi Songtao’s sudden eruption of aura alarmed the people in the camp. Meng Bai, Wang Mu, Xiao Jianghe, and the others appeared.
Yao Buqi didn’t panic. He only glanced at the people, and his gaze still landed on Shi Songtao.
Shi Songtao’s face turned red. He turned around and said to everyone, “It’s fine. Everyone, go back.”
He waved his hand. His gaze fell on the thing Yao Buqi had just thrown over, and his expression instantly turned solemn. “Yao Buqi, where did you get this?”
“Never mind where I got it,” Yao Buqi said. “Identify if this thing is good.”
“Good?” Shi Songtao raised his voice. “This is a connate divine weapon!
“What do you know as a demonic beast?! This connate divine weapon is a priceless existence!”
“Priceless? Does that mean it’s a good thing?” Yao Buqi said.
“You…” Shi Songtao glared at Yao Buqi. How could a connate divine weapon be described as a good thing?
“Why do you have a connate divine weapon? Do you demonic beasts also have forgers?” Shi Songtao asked solemnly.
Just now, he had just seen eighteen connate divine weapons on the Connate Armament Manual. In the blink of an eye, Yao Buqi had taken out a connate divine weapon for him to identify. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
“Alright, it’s none of your business.” Yao Buqi didn’t answer Shi Songtao at all. In a flash, the connate divine weapon in Shi Songtao’s hand was already in his hand.
He turned to leave.
“Yao Buqi, explain yourself before you leave!” Shi Songtao was anxious. He took a step forward and reached out to grab Yao Buqi.
Disdain flashed across Yao Buqi’s face. “You dare to fight me?”
His shoulder shook, and he was about to throw Shi Songtao to the ground.
He wouldn’t go so far as to kill Shi Songtao. He worked with the humans now. But it wouldn’t be a problem to give him a taste of his own medicine.
Bang!
A black shadow flew out, crashed into the stones of the Two Region Mountain, and fell pathetically.
Shi Songtao looked at his hand in shock. Could my cultivation have unknowingly become so strong?
Even Yao Buqi is no match for me?
I don’t think I’ve broken through to the first rank.
Shi Songtao was full of doubts.
“Yao Buqi, remember that the human race is in a cooperative relationship with you, not a dependency.” A voice sounded. “If you think you can randomly beat and scold humans, you’re wrong.”
“Pavilion Master!” Shi Songtao exclaimed. So, it wasn’t that he had broken through to the first rank of the Martial Dao but that the pavilion master had returned.
“King Zhou, you’ve misunderstood me.” Yao Buqi got up from the ground. He wasn’t injured, but he was a little disheveled.
As for losing face, he had been a captive before. Why would he care about this?
“He attacked first. I just wanted to teach him a lesson. He dared to attack a first-rank demonic beast. If it were any other demonic beast, he would be courting death,” Yao Buqi said.
“But since you’re back, I naturally don’t have to worry about disciplining him.”
Yao Buqi said doubtfully, “King Zhou, how did you get in?”
Without him leading the way, it was impossible for outsiders to get up the Two Region Mountain.
“I can come if I want to,” Zhou Shu said indifferently. “Do you think this Two Region Mountain can stop me?”
Yao Buqi felt a chill. He finally remembered that the man in front of him could not be deduced by common sense.
“That’s not it.” Yao Buqi shook his head. “King Zhou, your methods are mysterious and unfathomable. Recently, it has spread throughout the Demon Realm. There’s a human expert who can pretend to be a Demon King. Eleven Demon Kings have jointly ordered all demonic beasts to be on their guard.”
Yao Buqi praised in his heart. He knew that Zhou Shu could pretend to be Yao Qing, but he didn’t expect him to be able to disguise himself as a Demon King.
Only this man could make the hearts of all the demons in the Demon Realm tremble.
“If you snitch on me, Demon King Ao and the others will definitely reward you heavily,” Zhou Shu said calmly.
“How is that possible?” Yao Buqi shook his head repeatedly. “We’re business partners. How can I, Yao Buqi, be a demonic beast who forgets about justice for profit?”
Shi Songtao came back to his senses and said loudly, “Pavilion Master, Yao Buqi has an unknown connate divine weapon!”
“A connate divine weapon?” Zhou Shu looked at Yao Buqi in confusion. The connate divine weapons he knew were all personally forged by him. How did one fall into Yao Buqi’s hands?
“Here!” Yao Buqi hurriedly said when he saw the killing intent on Zhou Shu. “I originally wanted to show it to you, King Zhou. This weapon came from the top of the mountain.”
Yao Buqi glanced at Shi Songtao, then winked at Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu knew what he meant. There was an altar at the top of the mountain that led straight to the Ten Nations Continent. Only Yao Buqi and he knew about this.
Yao Buqi clearly didn’t want a third person to know about this.
After all, Two Region Mountain was Yao Buqi’s territory. Since Zhou Shu was staying here, he didn’t want to disrespect Yao Buqi.
He didn’t mention the altar either.
“An offering?” Zhou Shu said casually and reached out to take the weapon from Yao Buqi.
With a slight flick of his wrist, the sword clanged.
He nodded. “That’s right. It’s a connate divine weapon.”
He casually threw the sword back to Yao Buqi. “Someone gave this to you because you’re a demon god. You should keep it for yourself.”
Zhou Shu looked at Yao Buqi and asked with interest, “What do you plan to reward the other party for offering such a precious item?”
