Chen Zuan realized that even though he was a Heavenly King, he should not think that he would receive any special treatment from Lu Xiaoyu. He was not even equal to dust. The dust could misbehave, but he could not…
On the other hand, Lu Shu was still discussing official matters with Ouyang Lishang. Lu Shu was very interested in the molten iron and flames in the Laos remains.
The other remains all had a few valuable items. It did not make sense for these remains to be the exception. Not only were there no creatures, the only item that could be used was a hammer.
Lu Shu suspected that the entire remains were the treasures that the old King of Gods had left behind. As long as he was able to subdue Ouyang Lishang, the remains would provide him with countless materials.
“That’s right. When I was in the Luniverse, I realized that there was very little metal that could be used to make weapons. What happened?” Lu Shu asked Ouyang Lishang.
Ouyang Lishang smacked his lips, annoyed. “Why are you asking me this? Weren’t you the one kept everything? Back then, you uprooted several major mines and placed them who-knows-where! Only the small mines remained. Thus, the wealthy families, aristocrats, and Lords of Heaven there do not have enough materials to cast weapons.”
Lu Shu felt that this was rational. No wonder he felt that the price of weapons was much higher than the price of armor in the Luniverse. That which is rare is dear!
This did not happen on Earth. Armor was always more expensive than weapons, but it was the opposite in the Luniverse.
So it was because the old King of Gods had dug up all the mines. This caused the materials suitable for casting weapons to be few and far between. Thus, the price of weapons skyrocketed.
Lu Shu looked at Ouyang Lishang. “Return to the bronze lamp. Let me bring you somewhere.”
Then, Lu Shu stuffed the bronze lamp into the celestial map and walked into the world of the remains in the hammer!
Recently, few items had been placed into the Seal of Lands. Thus, Chaos wanted to bite everything. If Lu Shu was not careful, the item might disappear.
Furthermore, Chaos’ appetite was very good. Would a dragon that ate weapons from a young age have poor digestion? Evidently not…
Back then, Chaos had even destroyed several Dragon Stages. If not, Chen Zuan would not have been able to benefit so much with his large appetite. Were there still dragons in this world? If there were, Chen Zuan was definitely the dragon with the best bite…
Lu Shu stood in the blazing world of the Laos remains. He finally understood why it was called a living hell.
Deep red lines stretched out on the ground. The ground in front of him was like a massive mine of ore. Furthermore, the flames that erupted from the core constantly melted the metal. Then, the molten metal flowed elsewhere to cool.
There was a red pond of magma at the core of the remains. It was filled with boiling molten iron. There seemed to be a gold ray of light passing through the molten iron. It looked like a dragon.
Lu Shu did not even know what to call the metal. He could only describe it as molten iron.
The remains were not that vast. At least, it was not as vast as the Beimang remains. But if this place was a mine that had been dug by the old King of Gods, coupled with Ouyang Lishang’s skills, Lu Shu would be able to equip a region of soldiers!
The old King of Gods had stored all the weapons and released all the horses. He had done many things after uniting the Luniverse. He simply hoped that there would not be any more wars.
But in the end, he realized that the source of war was not weapons. It was desire.
As long as humans had desire, they would be able to start wars, even if they did not have weapons.
Lu Shu took out the bronze lamp and summoned Ouyang Lishang. He asked, “Do you recognize the molten iron here?”
But the moment Ouyang Lishang appeared, he was dumbfounded. “Floating gold! It’s floating gold! So the floating gold you took away was here!”
Lu Shu understood. It looked like Ouyang Lishang recognized this material. It was a material called floating gold. He curiously asked, “What is the function of this material?”
Ouyang Lishang already knew the differences between Lu Shu and old King of Gods, but he knew that the old King of Gods had far too many secrets. He did not ask what he should not be asking. He would reply to whatever Lu Shu asked. After all, Corpsedog, Concealed Arrow, Seizing Thief, and the head-twisting gourd were all in Lu Shu’s hands. Furthermore, since Lu Shu was able to escape from the Yellowstone National Park remains meant that he had obtained Filth Removal’s approval. Other than the old King of Gods, no one else was able to escape from that world of crime. Thus, he knew his limits.
Ouyang Lishang explained, “This was the most popular mineral in the Luniverse. There were three such mines in the Luniverse, but they were dug up by you. The molten iron flowing outside were collected over many years. You are very wise to have placed fire here as well to melt the floating gold. Back then, when I created the World Tide, I took 81 days just to melt the floating gold!”
“Wait.” Lu Shu was dumbfounded. “Are you saying that the World Tide was created from this material?!”
“Yes.” Ouyang Lishang said, “Although the Armor that Shook Mountains is made out of shooting stars and cannot be created again, the World Tide is different. It was just that you did not allow many pieces to be created. You only gave it to the Imperial Palace Soldiers.”
Lu Shu thought about it for a long time. Then, he said, “If I give this place to you, how long do you need to create one World Tide?”
“The floating gold here is all melted, so it can be used immediately.” Ouyang Lishang calculated. “But the structure of the World Tide is complex and needs intricate work. The carving of the patterns is also complex. I feel that even if the disciples are able to master the techniques, it is already good enough for each of them to create one in a month. Furthermore, the rate of substandard weapons being produced is very high. If nine out of 18 pieces can be used, it is good enough.”
Lu Shu furrowed his eyebrows. They did not have much time left. The space pathway would definitely open in two months. This meant that along with the disciples, they would only be able to cast nine usable pieces of the World Tide.
“But don’t worry about the materials being used up. After all, substandard pieces can be thrown back here. The materials will not go to waste.” Ouyang Lishang explained, “It’s just that you gave me too few disciples. If there were more disciples, even if the rate of wastage is higher, the rate of production will also be higher. I will polish and cut the finished weapons. I will make sure that they are of quality.”
Wait. Lu Shu suddenly thought of something. There were not that few refiner disciples.
Ouyang Lishang did not have much demands for their foundations. They had to understand the specific properties of transmitting Spirit Qi to metal. Furthermore, they needed to have average strength…
There were many such disciples in the major Cultivation Colleges. Each of the colleges had students in the weapon refinery specialization. These were the first things that these students learned.
The professional refiners in the Heavenly Network were of much higher positions than the students, but they were the same in Ouyang Lishang’s eyes. They were all rookies!
Rookies were enough for this assembly line operation.
