Legendary Armament Canon

1036 The Consciousness of a Divine Weapon, I’ll Let You Die (2)

In the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, Zhou Shu sized up the thing Cang Hao had sent back curiously.

The thing looked like a closed lotus flower. After washing away the blood on the surface, it was completely golden. Upon closer inspection, it gave off a crystal clear feeling.

It was still pulsating. With every beat, a force seemed to circulate in it.

“Interesting.”

This was the first time Zhou Shu had seen a divine weapon with consciousness.

Even he couldn’t figure out how it was accomplished.

If divine weapons have consciousness, doesn’t that mean martial artists can really fight two-on-one? Or even many-on-one?

An image appeared in Zhou Shu’s mind. He was fighting with someone. He stood in the air without moving his hands or shouting. Countless connate divine weapons flew out, and even without him controlling them, they attacked the enemy.

Zhou Shu felt good just thinking about this scene.

But then again, this might not be a good thing.

For example, after the thing in front of him gained consciousness, it had actually seized the bodies of other races and tried to be an individual, an individual who ate others.

As the saying goes, those who are not of our race will definitely have different thoughts. If divine weapons had self-awareness, they might not be friends anymore. They might even be enemies.

This path has gone astray. Zhou Shu didn’t know who had forged this thing, but he didn’t agree with this path.

A tool was a tool, and a divine weapon was a divine weapon. Zhou Shu still remembered the debate in his previous life about whether artificial intelligence could replace humans.

He also remembered that in some sci-fi movies, robots ruled the world, and humans became slaves.

How similar was it to artificial intelligence to let divine weapons develop their own consciousness?

If a divine weapon had its own consciousness, then between it and a martial artist, who was the lead? Who was the support?

If the lead was the stronger one, it was obvious that divine weapons had greater advantages.

At that time, wouldn’t the divine weapon become the master of the martial artist?

In that case, what was the significance of forgers forging divine weapons?

Zhou Shu could understand the existence who was very likely to be a peer. He had forged this thing and knew its danger, but he couldn’t bear to destroy it.

Therefore, he could only abandon it and let it fend for itself.

Putting himself in this person’s shoes, Zhou Shu might have chosen to do the same.

Zhou Shu now suspected that the person who had forged this golden lotus was Jun Tian, the traitor mentioned by You Tian and Yang Tian of the Nine Immortals.

Apart from him, Zhou Shu couldn’t think of anyone else. Who else could have forged a connate divine weapon in this ancient era?!

The law of the ‘Bing’ syllable contained the profundities of all weapons in the world. Anyone who controlled it could naturally master the art of forging.

Moreover, Zhou Shu had always suspected that the Legendary Armament Canon had something to do with the law of the ‘Bing’ syllable and Jun Tian.

He wouldn’t be surprised if Jun Tian had forged this golden lotus.

The monster transformed from the golden lotus had also said that the person who had suppressed it back then was Jun Tian.

If this thing hadn’t been forged by Jun Tian, with his strength, killing that monster would be as easy as flipping his hand.

Unfortunately, he was still a little soft-hearted about his work, so he didn’t destroy the golden lotus.

“You didn’t destroy your work and instead killed my workers. How should I settle this score?” Zhou Shu said out loud. “The materials used to forge this golden lotus look extraordinary. If I melt it and reforge it, I should be able to make a connate divine weapon.”

Buzz—

The golden lotus hummed.

“I can work for you. I can do anything.” The golden lotus suddenly let out a metallic sound, as if it was the sound of the lotus petals trembling with the air.

A cold smile appeared on Zhou Shu’s lips. Cang Hao was still a little careless. The consciousness of this thing is still here!

“You can do anything?” Zhou Shu said.

“I can do anything!” The golden lotus seemed to be a little anxious. “I’ve lived for many years. Although I was trapped in a cave, there were always people sending me information. I’ve learned a lot of things. I can do everything others can do. As long as I condense a body, I can replace the person I killed and work for you. I’ll do better than him!

“Don’t melt me and reforge me.”

This last sentence finally revealed its thoughts.

After the divine weapon had its own consciousness, it also became afraid of death.

This golden lotus was far smarter than Cang Hao had described. A divine weapon that could hide its strength was really interesting.

From its words, Zhou Shu could tell that before it met Cang Huan, apart from bewitching the Half-Beast King, it had probably bewitched others.

Thinking about it, it made sense. Divine weapons were not humans. They had no lifespan and lived for countless years. Who knew what they had mastered?

This was also why Zhou Shu felt that letting divine weapons develop their own consciousness was wrong.

If divine weapons had their own consciousness, not only humans, but all the races in the world would probably be inferior to divine weapons.

Divine weapons were originally created by humans to strengthen themselves. If divine weapons took over, wouldn’t it be putting the cart before the horse?

There were many ways to increase the power of divine weapons. Letting them develop their own consciousness was clearly not the best method.

“It’s not impossible not to reforge you,” Zhou Shu said indifferently while fiddling with the Cosmic Cauldron beside him.

The Cosmic Cauldron emitted a chaotic and ancient aura, causing all the lotus petals of the golden lotus to tremble slightly.

The man in front of it was different from the others. This one really brought it the threat of death.

“I’ll agree to anything you ask as long as you don’t reforge me,” the golden lotus said in a metallic voice.

Zhou Shu said word by word, “I want you to die.”

Before he finished speaking, he reached out and patted the Cosmic Cauldron.

Ever since he used the Cosmic Cauldron to deal with Yang Tian, Zhou Shu already knew that in ancient times, using the Cosmic Cauldron wouldn’t attract the attack of the mysterious giant hands. Moreover, this Cosmic Cauldron was infinitely powerful and could even trap Yang Tian. Zhou Shu naturally wouldn’t let it go.

Using the Cosmic Cauldron to destroy a small golden lotus was like using a sledgehammer to kill a chicken. Nothing would go wrong.

The Cosmic Cauldron buzzed and sucked the golden lotus in.
