Chapter 1019 Invitation
Seeing this, Li Mu and the others were shocked.
This Forging Palace was too dangerous.
There must be some way to pass it.
Dong Xue and her husband said that several batches of outsiders had entered the Athanasia Immortal Palace before them. Along the way, they had seen some corpses, but some people must have broken into the Forging Palace. Now that there was no trace of these people, it meant that the experts of the Lightning Taoist Ancestor Mountain and other forces had passed through the Forging Palace.
“Could it be that those people who had come before us was all smashed into ashes by the huge square hammers here?” Caicai asked.
Zhuge Yun shook his head and said, “It’s impossible. If they can’t pass through, the people of the major forces won’t go die themselves. They will definitely return. They must have found a way to pass through the Forging Palace safely.”
The Sword Fanatic said, “Indeed, although those bastards on Lightning Taoist Ancestor Mountain are crazy, they won’t do anything that will inevitably make them to death. They must have already passed through it.”
“How about I give it a try?” Yuan Hou suggested.
He had been practicing the Ultimate Yin and Yang Cultivation Method, so his body was as hard as divine iron. Moreover, he was proficient in changing. He could turn into wind or hair. In this way, he might be able to pass through.
Li Mu shook his head and said, “No, the speed of the immortal sword is not fast enough, let alone your changes.”
The gap between Yuan Hou and the Sword Fanatic was huge. Even the Flowing Frost Sword of the Sword Fanatic couldn’t cross it, let alone the changes of Yuan Hou. The Ultimate Yin and Yang Cultivation Method was indeed unparalleled, but the cultivation level of Yuan Hou was too low.
Yuan Hou also knew his strength, so he stopped putting on airs.
At this time, Qing Feng suddenly came out and said, ” Young Master, let me have a try.”
Li Mu looked at him in surprise and asked, “You?”
Qing Feng did not like to fight head-on, and his combat capability was not as good as that of Yuan Hou. However, this Forging Palace was not testing combat capability. Moreover, Qing Feng was mature and never did anything that he was not sure of. Perhaps, he had found something.
After a moment of hesitation, Li Mu nodded and said, “Okay, but be careful. Don’t push yourself too hard.”
“Yes, Young Master.”
Qing Feng saluted and walked to the Forging Palace.
When he came to the threshold of the Forging Palace, he looked carefully at the huge square hammers constantly rising and falling in the road a thousand meters long as if he was observing something.
Li Mu’s heart skipped a beat.
“Could it be that the rising and falling of these huge hammers is regular? Is it just like many small games that test one’s reaction and hand speed in my previous life? As long as people can figure out it, they can enter a hammer range when the huge hammer rises. Before the hammer falls, they can enter another hammer range. In that way, people can go through the Forging Palace in such a cycle.”
But after observing for a moment, he quickly denied this idea.
There was no regular pattern to the rising and falling of these giant hammers. They kept changing moves. Moreover, according to the previous test conducted by the Sword Fanatic, the faster and stronger the objects entered, the faster the giant hammers rose and fell.
If it was so easy to deal with the traps set up by Cosmic Emperor Deathless, the emperor who had succeeded in the Way of casting would be underestimated.
Just as countless thoughts flashed through Li Mu’s mind, Qing Feng, who had been standing quietly in front of the Forging Palace, suddenly lifted his foot and walked in without warning. Li Mu was stunned.
“Dangerous! Brother Qing Feng.”
Ming Yue could not help yelling.
Li Mu and the Sword Fanatic were about to pull Qing Feng back.
But the next moment, both of them stopped.
When Qing Feng stepped on the place under the first square hammer of the Forging Palace, the huge hammer about to hit Qing Feng suddenly stopped and floated above his head.
“It stopped.”
Song Bie and the others widened their eyes.
“What did he do just now?” The Sword Fanatic looked at Li Mu.
Li Mu also shook his head.
He didn’t see what happened.
Qing Feng turned back and waved his hand to everyone. With a faint smile on his face, he said, “I think I’ve found the way to pass it. Everyone, be quick to stand by my side.”
Li Mu and the others moved, turned into flowing lights, and came to Qing Feng.
Ming Yue looked up at the huge hammer floating above her in a panic and said, “Brother Qing Feng, don’t make any mistake, or you will never see me again in your life.”
“Don’t worry.” Qing Feng answered simply.
He held a small piece of dark green metal and threw it at the narrow road ahead.
Boom!
The moment the small piece of metal fell to the ground, it was directly smashed by the giant hammer and embedded in the strange metal ground.
Qing Feng walked forward.
Sure enough, when one of his feet stepped on the next square huge hammer, the huge hammer suddenly stopped and floated in the air.
Just like that, Qing Feng stepped on the two places of two hammers with his two feet. Then, he said, “Everyone, go to the front of me.”
Everyone had different looks, but they still came to the second giant hammer’s place as they were told.
Only then did Qing Feng land his other foot on the area under the second giant hammer.
Boom!
The huge hammer, which had been suspended in the air, quickly smashed down on the place where everyone just stood.
Sparks flew in all directions.
“What is going on?”
Yuan Hou was extremely surprised.
Song Bie and the other two Sword Envoys, as well as the three experts from the Military of Man, also looked at Qing Feng in disbelief.
The Sword Fanatic looked at Li Mu with a playful look.
It was interesting.
Li Mu had two little attendants. The girl grabbed a set of suits of the Celestial Master casually in the Myriad Blades Palace, and the boy easily took them into the Forging Palace as if going home. Wherever he passed, the huge hammer above his head that could kill an Emperor-to-be could not fall.
Why did the two little attendants so powerful?
“Seventh Brother, are you the reincarnation of the Cosmic Emperor Deathless?”
The Sword Fanatic stroked his chin and asked.
The others also fixed their eyes on Li Mu in an instant.
Could it be that Senior Sword Fanatic has noticed something?
“Is Chief Li the one who secretly controls everything?”
“Are you kidding me?” Li Mu was puzzled and didn’t know what was wrong with the Sword Fanatic. He covered his forehead and said, “Third Brother, do you have a fever?”
“I know it.” Zhuge Yun suddenly said.
Everyone turned to look at him.
Zhuge Yun looked at Qing Feng with a look of appreciation and said, “I didn’t expect that there would be so many hidden talents in this small Zone. It can’t be underestimated. Little brother, you have a better comprehension of the casting than me.”
“Senior, I wish I deserved your compliment.” Qing Feng returned the salute gracefully and said, “I also found the secret of the Forging Palace by accident.”
“Oh, you two, don’t keep me guessing. What’s going on?” The Sword Fanatic couldn’t wait to know the secret of these hammers.
Zhuge Yun laughed out loud and said, “You’re so impatient. Ha… The little brother discovered the secret first. Let him tell everyone.”
Everyone’s eyes were fixed on Qing Feng again.
Qing Feng smiled and said, “In fact, the secret is simple. I was thinking why the Cosmic Emperor Deathless set up the palace. It is definitely not to stop people or to kill people. From the perspective of a Weapon Refiner, I guess the real purpose of the Cosmic Emperor Deathless is to forge materials and refine them into essence. This palace is like the forging platforms and hammers of ordinary Weapon Refiners.”
Hearing this, everyone nodded subconsciously.
That was indeed the case.
The Cosmic Emperor Deathless would not be so bored as to build such a palace to kill people.
“But so what?” The Sword Fanatic asked with a curious look, “Even if everything is as you said, why do you only need to throw a small piece of metal, and this hammer will not smash you?”
Qing Feng said, “That is not a piece of ordinary metal but a piece of immortal gold, a rare divine material for forging weapons.”
“What’s the difference?” The Sword Fanatic asked.
Qing Feng said, “These hammers have a spirit. Any ordinary miscellaneous material will be reduced to ashes if it enters. But if a high-quality raw divine material enters it, the material will be refined with a secret skill. The divine material I just threw in is just like a sacrificial offering to a deity. As long as the hammers and the forging platform admit the qualification of the sacrificial offering, it means that the person who offers it will also be recognized. When the person enters the forging platform, the hammers will not fall.”
The Sword Lunatic was stunned when he heard this. He touched his chin and said. “Really?”
Zhuge Yun said with a smile, “Yes. I just realized it. In addition to exquisite secret skills and various tools, the master of forging also needs a devout heart to forge weapons. That’s why this little brother detected the secret of this Forging Palace. Such a genius is extremely rare even in our Holy Land of the Shenji of Hundred Refinements. Little brother, are you willing to join our Holy Land? I am willing to accept you as my direct disciple. Or, if you don’t like me, you can choose to be apprenticed to my master.”
This was the second time Zhuge Yun, one of the three Creators of the Battlefield of Chaos, had invited Qing Feng.
It should be noted that in the Battlefield of Chaos, countless geniuses and heroes were eager to be his disciples. They used all of their connections and means and showed their strength desperately but they couldn’t be Zhuge Yun’s disciples. But now, Zhuge Yun invited Qing Feng to be his direct disciple.
Even the three experts from the Military of Man were a little envious of such an opportunity.
They were just registered disciples of Zhuge Yun. They could become generals led by the Military of Mans after learning some superficial knowledge. If they could become Zhuge Yun’s direct disciples, they would even have a chance to enter the center of the Military of Man in the future, let alone become the followers of the Chief of the Holy Land of the Shenji of Hundred Refinements. That would be a skyrocketing achievement.
Without thinking, Qing Feng said directly, “I’m sorry.”
He didn’t explain the reason and refused directly.
Zhuge Yun sighed regretfully and said, “That’s a pity. My invitation will always be effective for you. If you change your mind one day, come to me at any time.”
“Thank you for your kindness, senior.” Qing Feng returned the salute elegantly.
Hearing that, Ming Yue trembled and said, “Senior, Brother Qing Feng, let’s not talk so much. It’s more important to get out of here first. The hammer has been hanging over my head. I’m a little scared.”
