Chapter 333 Ancient Forging Table
"Boom!"
The coffin lid suddenly slid open by itself, and everyone looked into the coffin!
It was unknown whether those people had touched a mechanism or not, but the huge coffin’s lid suddenly opened up and revealed the inside of it.
Just as the lid of the coffin was opened, a loud rumbling sound could be heard as a colossus rose up from the coffin.
It was a huge platform, and the light it radiated was dazzling. Even though it had been sealed for who knows how many years, it was still as bright as new.
The platform was filled with all sorts of tools, and they were emitting a grand aura, as if they were alive.
"Crafting platform."
Everyone stared blankly. They never thought that this coffin would contain the corpses of ancient people and all kinds of secret weapons. It only contained a huge forging platform.
"Weapons!"
Someone with sharp eyes was able to see the glittering hammer on the forging platform.
The awl was not big, only the size of a plate, and there was a two-foot-long handle on the back.
But when everyone saw this awl, their hearts began to beat wildly. This hammer brought them endless pressure.
"Sou sou …"
Suddenly, some of the unspecialized characters on the righteous path could no longer hold themselves back and charged towards the forging platform.
Puff.
However, before that person could even get close to the forging platform, he was cut into two by a Favored expert.
"This item belongs to the Mysterious Sky Courtyard. Whoever dares to lay their hands on it will be killed without question!" A cultivator that followed Zhao Mingshan shouted angrily.
Although none of those present were blacksmiths, if such an ancient blacksmith platform were handed over to the branch, it would definitely receive a massive amount of rewards.
A Forging Platform was not easy to differentiate between, but when it was exchanged for a massive amount of rewards, it became much simpler. Among the experts on the righteous path, Zhao Mingshan and the other Chosen realm expert were the most important.
The two of them had no use for this forging platform, so they would not fight over it. When the two of them obtained benefits, they would naturally leave a portion of the benefits for their subordinates.
As for the experts from the other courtyards, whether or not they could share the benefits would depend on the mood of the two.
The evil disciples couldn’t help but feel their eyes turn red with envy when they saw the appearance of this forging platform. This was because this sort of ancient object was no longer of value to them.
If a Forging Master were to be able to obtain a sliver of the knowledge of ancient times from this ancient Forging Platform, then it would be an astonishing fortune.
According to historical records, the wisdom of the ancient people was as deep as the sea. Regardless of whether it was battle skills or pill forging, at that time, it had already reached its peak.
However, for some unknown reason, everything seemed to have declined. It was as if the ancient civilizations were all cut off with a single blade.
In the past several hundred thousand years, cultivators had constantly explored the Ancient Era’s Remnants. Gradually, they discovered that the wisdom of the ancient people was as profound as the sea.
The more treasures people obtained from the secret realm, the more confused they would become. This was because there were many things that they would not be able to understand with the intelligence of the modern era.
However, after many years of research, people gradually gained a lot of insights, hoping to continue the glory of the ancients by studying their wisdom.
As for this forging platform before them, even though they were unable to determine its value, it did not mean that it was truly worthless. It was very possible that it was a priceless treasure.
The eyes of those evil disciples were all burning with passion. However, the leader of the evil disciples sneakily glanced at the evil supreme expert. He only saw the latter shake his head imperceptibly and did not make a move.
Long Chen glanced at the forging platform. Although he was somewhat shocked, this was reasonable.
He knew that whether it was a pill master or a blacksmith, these people were all very arrogant.
Things that they had personally used would usually accompany them to sleep in the ground for a long time, which was why they rarely passed down to disciples.
However, Long Chen had originally thought that the owner of the tomb would only leave behind a portion of his tools or a few masterpieces that he was proud of. He hadn’t thought that this person would actually leave behind the entire forging platform.
Long Chen’s heart burned with passion as he gazed at the enormous forging platform. He knew that if Guo Ran saw this forging platform, he would risk his life to seize it.
Even though the forging platform had appeared, Zhao Mingyuan and the rest’s subordinates did not relax at all. They continued to forcefully attack Long Chen and were not in a hurry to retrieve the massive forging platform.
Zhao Mingshan and the other Chosen realm expert were very confident. The two of them had the most people in the courtyard, and there were also quite a few disciples who were on good terms with each other. Among them, Zhao Mingshan and the other Chosen realm expert were the strongest; no one could defeat them.
As for the Evil Realm being, they were not afraid. Previously, it was only because they did not see the treasure, so they did not risk their lives to fight. If that Evil Dao Chosen truly dared to fall out, they would definitely retaliate.
Two against one, and there were so many other disciples. They weren’t afraid at all, so the first thought of the two was to work with that evil Chosen to kill Long Chen.
Long Chen was simply too powerful. Without the assistance of that evil supreme expert, the two of them might not have been able to leave Long Chen behind even if they did not use all of their strength.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The four of them continued to fight fiercely, and everyone could only watch. Only those unspecialized characters would occasionally steal a glance at this massive forging platform, and their hearts were filled with unwillingness and helplessness.
But all they could do was sigh in their hearts, and even somewhat regret. They had entered this ancient tomb, and now that they had stayed behind, they basically couldn’t obtain anything.
They wanted to leave, but those evil disciples had tightly guarded the passage and didn’t dare to let them go.
Even if they were to step aside, the only response they would receive would be the weapons in their hands, because the disciples of the evil way would only temporarily cooperate with the disciples of the Mysterious Sky Mansion, not with unspecialized characters like them.
Therefore, they could neither leave nor stay. They could only stand there foolishly, as bystanders.
"Gu Qi, go and put away that forging platform!" Zhao Mingshan was afraid that he might not be able to hold the dragon dust for a while. In order to be at ease, he asked a trustworthy cultivator to keep the forging platform.
The one known as Gu Qi was a powerful cultivator. Upon hearing this, he hurriedly rushed towards the forging platform.
“Crap, this platform is too heavy. I can’t store it.” The cultivator called Gu Qi tried several times, but he was still unable to store the platform into his spatial ring.
The interspatial ring was extremely mysterious. It could place objects within the third space, but that required a user’s body to be able to withstand the weight and powerful soul force.
This forging platform was enough to be 10 feet tall, 50 feet long, and 20 feet wide. The tools used to create this platform were all part of the forging platform; it was unknown just how much weight this platform weighed.
The one called Gu Qi had pushed the platform with all of his might, but the platform only trembled a bit. If one wasn’t careful, one wouldn’t even be able to feel the platform shaking.
“Then let’s put away the hammer first,” Zhao Mingshan said.
He was also able to tell that other than the forging platform, that hammer was definitely a treasure. Otherwise, if it was clearly a dead object, it would not have given them so much pressure.
"Why work so hard? "Let me do it for you!"
A smile appeared on Long Chen’s face as he suddenly slashed out with his saber. The strong wind whistled and the force was enough to break a mountain. The three people were knocked back several steps by Long Chen’s saber strike.
After knocking the three people back with a single slash, Long Chen took a step forward and suddenly disappeared from their sight.
"Be careful!"
Puff.
Just as Zhao Mingshan discovered that the dragon dust had disappeared, he felt a sense of discomfort. He hurriedly shouted out, but it was already too late.
Just as Gu Qi’s big hand was about to touch the hammer, his neck suddenly felt cold and the sky started spinning.
His vision kept rolling on the spot and he saw many people’s faces filled with shock. He also saw a long sword and a familiar body. However, there was no head on that body. Fresh blood sprayed out madly from his neck.
He had heard Zhao Mingshan’s warning, but that voice seemed to be very far away. He suddenly seemed to understand something, and immediately sank into eternal darkness.
“Long Chen, you’re courting death!”
Zhao Mingshan hadn’t thought that Long Chen would have such a strange movement ability, instantly killing Gu Qi.
Long Chen sneered as he reached out to grab the hammer.
“My god, it’s twice as heavy than my Evil Slaying!”
Long Chen didn’t even have time to carefully examine this hammer. He directly stored it in his spatial ring and went to retrieve the forging platform.
"Die!"
Suddenly, a gust of wind appeared behind his head and a terrifying aura attacked him. Long Chen didn’t have time to retrieve the forging platform and hastily retreated to the side.
"Boom!"
A terrifying Bladeqi heavily chopped down on the forging platform. This time, Zhao Mingshan was truly furious. He had used his full strength in this saber strike, and simply did not care about the consequences.
The power of one slash had made a big hole in the ceiling of the tomb. The entire tomb had almost been cut into two halves by him. The tomb shook violently.
Who knew how much weight the forging platform had? It was actually knocked down from the top of the huge coffin with a single slash. The entire forging platform smashed towards Long Chen.
"Haha, thank you!"
Seeing that enormous forging platform flying towards Long Chen, Long Chen was not alarmed. Instead, he was happy as he stretched out a hand towards the forging platform.
"This is bad!"
Zhao Mingshan and the others immediately felt something was wrong.
"Phew!"
When Long Chen’s large hand came in contact with the platform, the entire platform disappeared in an instant. It was unexpectedly sucked into Long Chen’s spatial ring.
As it turns out, an interspatial ring had a special characteristic, which was that it could only store items that left the ground. Thus, most people thought that only things that could be moved could be kept in the interspatial ring.
In fact, as long as the object left the ground, it could be stored in a spatial ring along with a strong soul force.
Long Chen had originally thought that he would have to cripple his hands and feet before he could keep the forging platform. He hadn’t thought that Zhao Mingshan would be so understanding that he would directly hand the treasure over to him.
"Rumble …"
Under Zhao Mingshan’s blade, the entire tomb began to shake crazily, as if an earthquake was occurring. A large amount of soil fell off the walls, and large chunks of soil fell off the ceiling.
"This place is about to collapse, hurry up and run!"
Following the sound of Huhe’s voice, all the righteous disciples rushed out of the cave. Even the evil disciples were dumbfounded. If this place collapsed, everyone would die.
Seeing those righteous disciples rush over, he didn’t know whether he should kill them or flee.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, an enormous pillar collapsed. An enormous pillar that was a few feet in diameter smashed two unlucky fellows to death.
To everyone’s surprise, the pillar coincidentally smashed into the huge coffin. The huge force caused the coffin to explode.
