Chapter 1396 The Awakening of the Artifact
Because of Zhou Shu's strong spiritual consciousness, the elves outside couldn't see the situation inside the formation, but the words outside fell into Zhou Shu's ears, and he seemed to realize something.
The demon refining pot should be the artifact they fear most.
It's not surprising, if the demon refining pot is fully restored and the final demon refining formula can be used, then these heaven and earth elves can't be opponents at all, and they can be refined if they find an opportunity.
The spirits of heaven and earth are also "demons".
If they had known that this artifact was a demon refining pot, they probably wouldn't have come, but how could Heaven tell them the truth?
Tiandao just wanted them to fight Zhou Shu to the death, as for their life and death, it was nothing.
Zhou Shu wouldn't say it, firstly, they wouldn't believe it, and secondly, Zhou Shu wanted to keep them, even if the demon refining pot hadn't fully recovered, it could be weakened slowly by using the power refining formula, and then If you use the Soul Refining Art when they are at their weakest, there is a high chance of success.
Came, snatched, and still want to go back safely? There is no such reason.
They can't go back, and the heaven and sect that let them come have to pay the price.
As time passed, the elves outside slowed down their attack. Zhou Shu recuperated for a while and continued to wait.
In front of him, a faint light suddenly lit up, and the long-silent Demon Refining Pot responded.
Zhou Shu said slowly, "Are you awake?"
The light on the pot flowed and gradually merged into one word, "Yes."
This character is not a natural language of heaven and earth, but an ancient language that Zhou Shu can understand.
Looking at the demon refining pot, Zhou Shu showed a hint of satisfaction, and said with a pun, "You really woke up."
A few months ago, the Demon Refining Pot had just recovered, and soon fell asleep like a newborn baby.
——The demon refining pot has gone through countless years, and there are countless memories in the pot. When the demon refining pot is reborn, all these memories will flood in. It can't accept it at once when it is born, and has to fall into a deep sleep. Come slowly Accept this vast amount of information.
Now that it can communicate with Zhou Shu in a language that Zhou Shu understands, it means that it has completely absorbed the memories of the past and has truly awakened.
From then on, Zhou Shu was able to communicate normally with the Demon Refining Pot.
Only by communicating with each other can he display the true function of the artifact.
Sacred artifacts are not just a few spells. As the guardian of the Xuanhuang world, a complete artifact is stronger than Almighty.
The light on the demon refining pot flowed again and merged into a row of small characters, "Those elves were sent by Pu Lao."
Zhou Shu looked slightly stagnant, "Pulao, who is that?"
As the light flickered, the handwriting changed again, "In the words of the immortal cultivators, Pu Lao is the way of heaven, the way of heaven in the Xuanhuang world for the last 30,000 years."
"Is the way of heaven called Pulao, so it is so."
Zhou Shu seemed to realize something, "In the past 30,000 years, that is to say, the candidates for Tiandao have been changing all the time. For these 30,000 years, Pu Lao has been in charge. The name Pu Lao doesn't seem very strange."
He also had some impressions of these things, but it was quite shocking to say them so clearly like the demon refining pot.
It was as if he had learned some great secret.
But the Demon Refining Pot didn't want to say any more, and the light flashed, "I'll talk about it later, you must protect me now, or I will be taken away by Pu Lao."
Zhou Shu looked calm, and said seriously, "Naturally, you are already mine, and I will not allow anyone to take you away, even if it is the way of heaven."
The light moved, and the handwriting flashed very quickly, "I don't belong to anyone, I only belong to the Xuanhuang world. You guard me well, and I will help you, but don't try to get all of me...unless you can satisfy all of me. Require."
The last few words came out very slowly, as if he hesitated for a while.
Zhou Shu smiled unconsciously, and said slowly, "You are very important to me. If the request is reasonable, I have no reason not to agree. Why don't you tell me?"
The Demon Refining Pot was silent for a while, "I'll talk about it later, you just need to protect me. My strength is still very weak, less than one percent of my full strength. If you do it, I will give you enough benefits."
"I will do my best."
Zhou Shu nodded slightly, and said thoughtfully, "It seems that you and Tiandao, no, Pu Lao, do have a lot of hatred. Is it true that you want to refine the Xuanhuang world, so you and him Enmity?"
The Demon Refining Pot suddenly shook, and the light flashed rapidly, "Where did the rumors come from?"
Zhou Shu's expression was slightly condensed, "That is to say, the rumors are true?"
"of course not."
The Demon Refining Pot said word by word, "I was born with the Xuanhuang World, and my destiny is the guardian of the Xuanhuang World. How can I refine the Xuanhuang World? I don't have such ambitions, nor do I have such ability. Besides, The Demon Refining Realm I painstakingly built back then may not be much worse than the outside world, but it's a pity..."
There seemed to be something hidden in it, Zhou Shu showed a bit of solemnity, and said slowly, "What's going on?"
During the exchange, several mountain peaks rushed towards him with countless wooden spikes. Zhou Shu raised his hand, and it was wiped out. He was still looking at the demon refining pot, wanting to get the answer.
The Demon Refining Pot paused, "My weapon spirit was bewitched by Pu Lao and did some outrageous things. Then Pu Lao blamed me, saying that I tried to refine the world in vain, violated the rules, and committed crimes." It's not to be punished, asking me to submit to him... It's ridiculous, it's my fault for indulging Qi Ling, but it's my fault to put this huge crime on me, and use this as an excuse to make me submit to him, how can I accept it ?”
Zhou Shu nodded unconsciously.
Such things seem to be what Tiandao is good at, as can be seen from what he did to Zhou Shu, and the elves in front of him are also bewitched by Tiandao.
Zhou Shu said slowly, "If you don't agree, what then?"
The light on the pot flickered, "He declared my guilt to the upper realm, and issued a censure order in the name of the upper realm. If he is alone, it's fine. I'm not afraid at all, but he also united with the other two artifacts to surround me together. Killing me is hateful! I was seriously injured and my original power was almost wiped out. I could only hide all my aura. I planned to recover slowly in the demon refining world and take revenge when I had a chance, but my weapon spirit knew it was wrong If you don’t change it, you will tell Heaven where I am, attracting them, and the Demon Refining Realm that has been in operation for countless years will be destroyed... When I feel it again, it will already be in your hands."
Zhou Shu nodded slightly.
Compared with Tiandao, it seems that the words of the demon refining pot are more credible.
He said slowly, "Why isn't your body destroyed?"
The demon refining pot flickered slowly, "Before the Xuanhuang World is destroyed, no one can destroy my body. Pu Lao knows this too. Why do you have so many questions?"
"Not much more, the last one."
Zhou Shu smiled faintly, "Since the artifact is born with spirits, why do we need other spirits?"
The demon refining pot vibrated a few times, "I need the weapon spirit because I have important things to do, a small part of the time to protect the world, and most of the time to build and expand the demon refining world, but other things can't be let go, such as managing the refining world. The demon world and so on, then it has to be handed over to others, and then others are the spirits."
Zhou Shu nodded slightly, "I see."
Just like a sect, there can't be only the suzerain and the disciples, there must be elders to manage it.
