997 Forging Legacy, First True Disciple (2)
“If I can change it, I will definitely do it. But I know it’s impossible.” Bai Yue smiled bitterly.
“I’m glad you understand,” Zhou Shu said indifferently. “Bai Ze King, history might not be unchangeable. I think you should just forget about those things. You still have to do what you have to do.
“Otherwise, it won’t help if you sit around and wait for death.”
Bai Yue smiled bitterly. It wasn’t that he didn’t understand the logic, but it was easier said than done to forget something. Sometimes, the more he wanted to forget, the harder it was to forget.
Bai Yue shook his head and shook off the messy thoughts in his mind. “I’ve heard a principle in the Origin World. Haste makes waste. The way you’re pushing the Giant Spirit King, I’m afraid that something will happen to him.”
“Nothing will happen to him.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “Even if anything happens, it doesn’t matter.
“If history changes because of this, it might be a good thing.
“Bai Ze King, there’s no need to talk about this anymore. I’ve thought about it. You also need a connate divine weapon now.”
“I don’t need it.” Bai Yue shook his head. “I had a chance to obtain a connate divine weapon in the Origin World, but I didn’t think I needed it.
“In any case, that’s all there is for my bai ze race. It won’t make much of a difference if I’m stronger or weaker. Connate divine weapons are not that useful to me.”
Bai Yue looked calm.
Zhou Shu looked at Bai Yue in surprise. “Don’t you want to be stronger?”
“What’s the use? Even if I have a connate divine weapon, can I defeat you?” Bai Yue asked.
Zhou Shu shrugged. “It’s unlikely, but it’s not impossible.”
As long as Zhou Shu surpassed anyone in strength, it was impossible for them to catch up to him.
Even if Bai Yue had a connate divine weapon, it was impossible for him to defeat Zhou Shu.
“Then, isn’t it settled? I can’t defeat you either way. What’s the point of me obtaining a connate divine weapon?” Bai Yue said,
“You see things clearly.” Zhou Shu couldn’t help laughing. This was the first time someone had rejected his connate divine weapon.
But what Bai Yue said made sense. If he didn’t have any intention of fighting for supremacy, it wouldn’t be of much use for him to own a connate divine weapon.
His current strength was in the first tier. If he had a connate divine weapon, he would indeed be stronger, but there wouldn’t be any fundamental changes.
Besides, Bai Yue had no intention of competing at all.
Now, he only wanted the bai ze race to live safely until all the races in the world disappeared.
In any case, the bai ze race was now a vassal of the giant spirit race. As long as the giant spirit race wasn’t destroyed, the bai ze race wouldn’t be in danger of being destroyed.
If anyone wanted to destroy the giant spirit race, they had to get past Zhou Shu first.
If anyone could get past Zhou Shu, then it didn’t matter if Bai Yue had a connate divine weapon or not.
“Forget it if you don’t want it.” Zhou Shu shrugged. “Bai Ze King, your understanding of connate divine weapons is still too one-sided. Connate divine weapons are not just for increasing combat strength.
“Connate divine weapons can also be auxiliary.”
Zhou Shu pointed at the hall. “For example, the Lingxiao Treasure Palace.”
Bai Yue looked thoughtful. A moment later, he shook his head and said, “I don’t want a connate divine weapon, but if you don’t mind, I want to learn forging from you.”
Zhou Shu asked, “You want to learn how to forge? Didn’t you just say that you don’t want to become stronger?”
“Learning forging isn’t to make myself stronger,” Bai Yue replied. “I feel that if we want to change the fate of our bai ze race, the art of forging might give us a chance of survival.”
“I don’t know how the myriad races are destroyed, but if I can forge a connate divine weapon like the Lingxiao Treasure Palace and protect all of us, will our bai ze race be able to survive?”
Bai Yue had never given up on saving the bai ze race.
“You can give it a try,” Zhou Shu said.
He didn’t know if the destruction of all the races was because of a natural disaster or an artificial disaster. Bai Yue’s method might not be useful.
But if he didn’t try, there was no hope at all.
Who could say for sure?
What if he succeeded?
If the bai ze race could really live to the future…
Actually, wasn’t he the same as Bai Yue?
Bai Yue wanted to save the bai ze race. Zhou Shu wanted to save himself.
Although Zhou Shu didn’t care much when Feng Wu broke the news to him, he was still affected.
Knowing that he might die in battle, he was eager to increase his cultivation.
It was also because of this that he had thought of a way to drive Cang Huan.
Otherwise, he would have still patiently waited for the giant spirit race to grow slowly.
