He moved very gently, as if afraid of disturbing the ashes in the surrounding furnaces.

Zhou Shu walked beside him and asked, “Brother Gao, this is only the fourth level of the Heavenly Hub Armory, right? Why is the cave master’s forging furnace here? Shouldn’t it be in the ninth level?”

“Who did you hear that from?” Gao Chongming said without turning his head. “The fourth level of the Heavenly Hub Armory is the place for forging. The cave master’s forging furnace is naturally here.

“There are several layers of heavens above. There are other mysteries. Only the core disciples of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain are qualified to enter.”

Gao Chongming added, “Even with a Kun Wu Saber, people can only reach this fourth level.”

“In that case, there’s nothing valuable in the first four heavens. Brother Gao, why are you guarding here?” Zhou Shu asked tentatively.

“There’s no need to guard it if there’s nothing valuable? This is our home! How can we let outsiders in?” As he spoke, he glanced at Mi Ziwen and Lu Wenshuang. “If not for my Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain suffering such a calamity, even if they’re your friends, they can forget about entering the Heavenly Hub Armory!”

His words made even Mi Ziwen roll his eyes.

Gao Chongming was too infuriating. How could he look down on others like that?

The Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain had fallen for many years, yet he still thought that they were so mighty!

Do you think everyone wants to come to your Heavenly Hub Armory? It’s tattered everywhere. It’s worse than the Huaxia Pavilion’s Demon Realm branch!

As they spoke, everyone suddenly felt a wave of heat wash over them.

When they looked up, they saw a huge forging furnace that was 90 feet tall in front of them!

The furnace was three-legged and had several transparent windows on it. Through the windows, one could see that the fiery red flames were still burning.

Even from a distance, they could still feel the heat coming from the furnace.

Zhou Shu was curious. How did the master of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain use such a large forging furnace? Could he be a giant?

Moreover, it would require a lot of forging materials to forge with such a large forging furnace.

Zhou Shu was currently forging the Lingxiao Treasure Palace at Demon King Hu Li’s place. The smelting furnace that Zhang Chunlin and the others had created wasn’t even as big as this forging furnace.

The master of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain seemed to like ‘9’ a lot. His intrinsic divine weapon, the Heavenly Hub Armory, was a nine heavens divine weapon, and the forging furnace he had used was also 90 feet tall…

Zhou Shu released his divine sense and observed the furnace.

As he released his divine sense, Gao Chongming looked back at Zhou Shu.

He could actually sense Zhou Shu’s divine sense!

But thinking about it, since he could fight Tushan to a draw, he was at least at the Grotto-Heaven realm. Such an expert had most likely already developed divine sense. It wasn’t surprising that he could sense Zhou Shu’s divine sense.

Zhou Shu had nothing to hide. He smiled at Gao Chongming to show that he meant no harm.

Under the observation of his divine sense, Zhou Shu saw that the three feet of the furnace touched the ground, and spiritual energy constantly gathered from all directions.

It felt like all the spiritual energy in this heaven was supplying the True Fire in this forging furnace!

No, it might not be just this level. Perhaps the spiritual energy in the entire Heavenly Hub Armory was gathering here!

Zhou Shu came to a realization. The Heavenly Hub Armory had been the intrinsic divine weapon of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain’s master, and this forging furnace had been used by him. It was understandable that his intrinsic divine weapon supported his forging furnace.

Thinking of this, Zhou Shu couldn’t help but have a deeper understanding of the legendary grotto-heaven masters.

No wonder Shi Changsheng looked down on Demon Kings like Tushan.

They were both at the Grotto-Heaven realm, but the difference between the peak and the entry-level was like the difference between heaven and earth.

Peak Grotto-Heaven realm experts all had complete grotto-heavens. The spiritual energy in the grotto-heavens was equivalent to their spiritual essence.

How much spiritual energy did a world contain?

How strong was the spiritual essence of a peak Grotto-Heaven realm expert?

If such an expert had a nine heavens artifact by his side, his spiritual essence would be almost endless!

How strong would such an expert be?

As Zhou Shu thought, he tried to send his divine sense into the furnace.

Buzz—

As soon as Zhou Shu’s divine sense entered the furnace, he felt a pain in his head. The wisp of divine sense had actually disappeared.

His head felt slightly numb. Just before the wisp of consciousness disappeared, he had seen the forging furnace clearly.

In the furnace, there was a small golden pagoda floating in the flames.

Zhou Shu suddenly realized that the small tower seemed to have nine levels…

Is nine a lucky number for the master of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain??he thought in complaint.

He looked at Gao Chongming and asked, “Brother Gao, is the cave master’s weapon still being forged?”

The weapon in the forging furnace was being refined in the True Fire. He had just caught a glimpse of it and felt that the weapon had already taken shape, as if it was about to be successfully forged.

Could it be that the True Fire in the forging furnace had been burning all these years to complete the forging?

What level of divine weapon would a weapon forged over countless years be?

Zhou Shu felt eager to try. The forging of this weapon was already coming to an end. He was completely confident that he could complete the work that the master of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain had not completed and forge this weapon!

However, Gao Chongming was still present. If Zhou Shu acted rashly, he might agitate him.

Although Zhou Shu still didn’t know much about Gao Chongming, he wasn’t an enemy at the moment. Moreover, there was still Tushan lurking in the dark, eyeing him covetously.

“That’s right. This Demon Subduing Pagoda was forged by the cave master to suppress all the demonic beasts in the world,” Gao Chongming said. “As long as this treasure is forged, all the demonic beasts in the world will have to bow down to it.

“Unfortunately, something happened before the cave master succeeded back then.”

A look of sadness flashed across Gao Chongming’s face before he continued, “That female demonic beast broke into the Heavenly Hub Armory most likely because of this Demon Subduing Pagoda.

“Hmph, even if the Demon Subduing Tower hasn’t been forged, the Heavenly Hub Armory isn’t where a demon beast like her can trespass! I, Gao Chongming, am still here!”

Gao Chongming’s aura surged. Zhou Shu suddenly noticed that under the corner of his clothes, his body was faintly transparent.

Zhou Shu frowned and asked, “Brother Gao, since you’re a disciple of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain, you should be proficient in forging, right?

“Why don’t you complete the forging of this Demon Subduing Pagoda for the cave master?”

“I don’t have what it takes.” Gao Chongming shook his head. “The cave master’s forging skills are a hundred times better than mine. I wouldn’t dare to act rashly with the weapon he forged. If I ruin the cave master’s plan—”

“The cave master is gone. Even if you don’t ruin things, this Demon Subduing Pagoda will never be forged,” Zhou Shu interrupted. “In that case, why don’t we give it a try? I don’t think the cave master will have any objections. The cave master wouldn’t want to see his hard work go to waste.

“If no one completes the forging, it can only float in True Fire forever. It can’t become a true divine weapon. Do you think the cave master wants to see that happen?

“Can’t the men of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain even bear this little burden?

“Brother Gao, if you don’t dare to do it, I’ll do it!”

Zhou Shu said solemnly, “If I fail, then I’ll have wasted the cave master’s efforts. Brother Gao, you can then take my life and bury my body with this Demon Subduing Pagoda!”

“Second Brother…”

“Master.”

“Your Highness!”

Mi Ziwen, Lu Wenshuang, and Yang Hong exclaimed at the same time.

Zhou Shu shook his head, indicating that the three of them shouldn’t speak.

Gao Chongming’s eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at Zhou Shu solemnly. “You wish to complete the forging of the Demon Subduing Pagoda for the cave master?”

“Yes.” Zhou Shu looked Gao Chongming in the eye.

“Good!” Gao Chongming spat out a word crisply.

His reaction made the excuse Zhou Shu had prepared useless. He agreed so readily?

It turned out that his worries were just his imagination. Gao Chongming wouldn’t stop him?

“If you fail, you don’t have to die with the Demon Subduing Pagoda. You just have to do one thing for me,” Gao Chongming continued.
