In the Demon Realm Ancestral Court, a ball of fire burned fiercely.
These flames were Bai Qianqian's anger.
While driving the flames in the furnace, she gritted her teeth and cursed Shi Changsheng.
Only now did she realize that she had been tricked!
But it was too late. If she went back on her word halfway, wouldn't she be at a disadvantage?
Therefore, even if she had to do it with tears in her eyes, she had to be responsible for her choice.
Damn you, Shi Changsheng. I'll burn you to death! Bai Qianqian treated the pieces of forging materials as Shi Changsheng and urged the flames with all her might.
She was a rare forger in the Demon Realm, and she had personally forged the one-heaven divine weapon the Tiger Soul Saber. Her forging skills were actually quite impressive.
At the very least, all the forgers Zhou Shu had seen before were inferior to Bai Qianqian in terms of forging skills.
Zhou Shu himself had never forged a one-heaven divine weapon.
But Bai Qianqian should be a genius. Although she had forged the Tiger Soul Saber, her foundation in forging was so bad that Shi Songtao was miles ahead of her.
She was able to forge the Tiger Soul Saber purely because of her cultivation and luck. If she had to do it again, she might not succeed.
Clearly, she knew her weakness, which was why she was so concerned about the forging legacy of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain.
The demonic beasts of the Demon Realm didn't have a forging legacy. Even the Nine Heavens Nine Sections that Ji Lutian had established had never been given a complete set of forging techniques. Yao Yi and the other demonic beasts had only learned bits and pieces of various skills.
Actually, not many demonic beasts were really interested in forging.
Bai Qianqian was an outlier.
She didn't like fighting, and she liked forging. In the past, she had even thought of disguising herself and going to the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain to become a disciple and learn. Unfortunately, the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain had a Demon Mirror, so she couldn't enter.
Now, there was a chance. Although she was being ordered around by Shi Changsheng, she could barely accept it.
"Focus!" Zhou Shu berated. "Look at the forging materials you've smelted. Even a Forging Apprentice of our human race is better than you!"
"How dare you say that I'm inferior to a Forging Apprentice?" Bai Qianqian said angrily. If you keep berating me, I'll quit!
"Can't I say a few more words if you're not doing a good job?" Zhou Shu said. "I've already taught you step by step, but you can't even learn it. If that's the case, you might as well not learn forging. You're not cut out for it!"
"No! I'll learn!" Bai Qianqian glared at him. "Just you wait!"
She puffed up her chest and urged her strength to smelt the forging materials.
Zhou Shu's lips curled up slightly. Bai Qianqian is really useful!
He activated his spiritual essence, and the temperature between his hands increased greatly. A ball of fiery red liquid kept changing between his hands, and a weapon gradually took shape.
A complete grotto-heaven like the Demon Realm Ancestral Court formed its own world, and the speed of time inside was different from the outside world.
Back then, inside the Zhuling Grotto-Heaven, one day in the outside world has been one year inside.
Now, under Bai Qianqian's control, the internal time of the Demon Realm Ancestral Court had also reached this level.
Zhou Shu was much faster at forging connate divine weapons than ordinary forgers. Without considering the quality, he could forge a connate divine weapon in a few months.
Of course, if it was exquisitely crafted, it wouldn't be surprising if it took a few years.
If they were outside, Zhou Shu definitely wouldn't have so much time to forge slowly.
It was different here. A year here was only a day outside.
He had time to forge slowly.
As Bai Qianqian smelted forging materials, she secretly watched Zhou Shu forge.
Her eyes were full of envy. This is a true forger. His posture is really handsome.
Although she was also a forger, she came from an unorthodox background. Whether she could successfully forge a weapon depended purely on luck. How could she be as at ease as Zhou Shu?
At the thought of this, Bai Qianqian immediately felt motivated.
This time, she had to learn the forging techniques of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain!
In the Demon Realm Ancestral Court, the human and the demon were increasingly in sync, and divine weapons were constantly forged by Zhou Shu.
He didn't put away the connate divine weapons and casually threw them aside, making Bai Qianqian extremely envious.

"Young fellow, it's useless no matter how many useless divine weapons you forge. Why waste the forging material? You might as well give them to me. I can let you dominate the world with just a few moves." Shi Changsheng's voice suddenly sounded in Zhou Shu's consciousness.
"Divine weapons are like humans. If they're not grotto-heaven weapons, they're just a waste of forging materials."
"Old Shi, are you awake?" Zhou Shu's hands didn't stop moving as he replied in his consciousness, "Old Shi, how many heavens is your Longevity Sword? Are there eighteen heavens?"
Zhou Shu didn't take Shi Changsheng's words to heart at all.
Ordinary connate divine weapons were naturally not incomparable to grotto-heaven divine weapons. But Zhou Shu didn't plan to use these divine weapons himself. There were strong and weak workers. It wasn't that the stronger the divine weapon, the better.
There was naturally no need to explain this to Shi Changsheng.
"If you don't talk about this, we can still have a good chat!" Shi Changsheng said angrily.
You started the topic first. Zhou Shu rolled his eyes in his heart. "Old Shi, what's the matter?"
If there was nothing important, Shi Changsheng would never take the initiative to talk to him.
"Young fellow, do you want to forge a grotto-heaven divine weapon?" Shi Changsheng said mysteriously.
"Of course. The problem is that I don't have a Divine Stone." Zhou Shu shrugged.
Just like how forging connate divine weapons required Heaven Refining Stones, Divine Stones were indispensable when forging grotto-heaven divine weapons.
Without Divine Stones, it was impossible to make divine weapons contain worlds.
"If you don't have any, then steal them or rob them," Shi Changsheng said matter-of-factly. "Isn't this what you're best at?"
Zhou Shu's face darkened. What do you mean I'm best at it?
When have I ever stolen or robbed?
Alright, but does that really count as stealing?
I was the victim.
There's not even a Divine Stone in a grotto-heaven as big as the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven. Even if I want to steal one, there's nowhere I can steal it from.
Zhou Shu said casually. "Old Shi, do you know where to find Divine Stones?"
Last time, when Shi Changsheng explained heavenly slaves, he had revealed a lot of secrets. But Zhou Shu still didn't know much about Divine Stones.
"I know a place that definitely has Divine Stones, at least three!" Shi Changsheng said in Zhou Shu's consciousness. "If you go get them, we'll split them thirty/seventy. How about that?"
"No," Zhou Shu said firmly without hesitation.
The barrier between the Demon Realm and the Ten Nations Continent had already been torn, and the damage was constantly expanding. Moreover, the Demon Kings of the Demon Realm had said that the Demon Realm would invade again in three months.
At this moment, forging divine weapons was the most important thing for Zhou Shu.
Before the war began, he had to equip his workers well. Only then could he enter a harvesting state and become stronger during the war.
Not to mention for Divine Stones, no matter how Shi Changsheng persuaded him, he wouldn't go out.
To others, grotto-heaven divine weapons might be better, but they weren't too important to Zhou Shu at all. As long as he had enough divine weapons, he would have enough workers. This way, there would be more people providing him with strength.
This was much better than forging one extremely powerful grotto-heaven divine weapon.
"Young fellow, you don't know how important Divine Stones are! Let me tell you. If you miss this opportunity, you won't be able to get it again. If they use the Divine Stones, you will only be able to cry," Shi Changsheng said.
"I won't cry." Zhou Shu pursed his lips. "Old Shi, if you want them yourself, then tell me you want them. If you really want them, I can consider helping you. I just need you to help me do something small."
"Kid, do you think I'm that silly girl?" Shi Changsheng said disdainfully. "Ever since I was born, no one has been able to take advantage of me."
