Chapter 256: Great Xia, King of the South
Meng Bai looked at Zhou Shu and praised him inwardly.
Any other young man would probably be a little arrogant now.
At such a young age, his Martial Dao cultivation was already almost invincible. He was Great Qin’s side-by-side king and Great Xia’s You Marquis. No matter which title it was, it was something that ordinary people couldn’t attain in their entire lives.
However, not only was Zhou Shu not complacent, but he also felt that this reputation was dragging him down.
When he was famous, he was not immersed in this glory. Instead, he was focused on forging. At this time, he was still in the mood to discuss weapons with him.
Perhaps this was why he had achieved so much.
How could such a person not achieve anything?
Zhou Shu’s enthusiasm for forging also deeply infected Meng Bai.
“Where’s your Heavenly Halberd? Could you let me take a look first?” Meng Bai didn’t hastily agree to buy Zhou Shu’s Heavenly Halberd.
Speaking of which, although Zhou Shu was famous for forging, he was only a Forging Master.
Even if he had almost taken over the Yellow-grade Armament Manual, it didn’t change this fact.
The weapons he forged now were only yellow-grade.
Many years ago, before Meng Bai was injured, the weapon he used was already earth-grade.
Now that he was a first-rank martial artist, it wasn’t difficult for him to obtain a heaven-grade weapon with his status and cultivation.

If he used a yellow-grade weapon now, it would be a burden to his own strength.
It was not an exaggeration to say that a yellow-grade weapon wouldn’t be able to unleash his strength.
To put it bluntly, to first-rank martial artists, yellow-grade weapons were no different from toys.
Wang Mu liked the Overlord Spear purely because he liked it. He had a famous sword at the top of the Heaven-grade Armament Manual, so he didn’t need other weapons.
He wanted the Overlord Spear purely for fun.
Unlike Wang Mu, Meng Bai didn’t have a weapon.
What he lacked now was a weapon that could match his strength, not a toy.
He knew that Zhou Shu had brought a few large boxes with him when he left Chang’an. He had taken the Overlord Spear from those boxes.
Meng Bai was curious about what other weapons he had in the boxes.
“Of course.” Zhou Shu smiled. “You definitely have to see it before buying it.
“The Heavenly Halberd is only one step away from completion. I’ll let you take a look at it later.”
Zhou Shu wasn’t just saying this.
In the following days, he directly entered a carriage and didn’t even show up to eat.
Everyone could only see faint flames flashing inside the carriage.
The greatest benefit of cultivating the Iron Smelting Hands Technique was that Zhou Shu could forge weapons at any time.
Of course, with his current cultivation in the Iron Smelting Hands Technique, he couldn’t forge a weapon anytime, anywhere. But if it was only positioning the stars, it wasn’t a big problem.
As the Great Xia diplomatic mission gradually approached the border of Great Xia, Zhou Shu finally walked out of the carriage.
Meng Bai immediately saw the weapon in Zhou Shu’s hand. Just like Wang Mu, he was moved!
The weapon was 12 feet long, and there seemed to be the spirit of the Eight Desolates Fire Dragon on the long rod. It was hot to touch, and the sharp tip of the halberd revealed an incomparably ruthless killing intent. The four-edged blade seemed to contain the power of Asura, mind charming and bloodthirsty.
This was an out-and-out killing weapon!
No general could resist its temptation!
“Great General, what do you think of this Heavenly Halberd?” Zhou Shu said.
Before he went to Great Qin, he had spent countless efforts to forge two weapons.
One of them was the Overlord Spear sold to Great Qin’s Great General Wang Xin.
And the other was the Heavenly Halberd.
Zhou Shu had originally planned to find a fierce general in Great Qin to take in as a worker, but the series of events in Great Qin made him unable to find a suitable candidate.
Even so, the Heavenly Halberd had already been forged. He couldn’t just leave it there.
Letting Meng Bai have it was not the best choice, but it was better than the weapon being useless in his own hands.
On his horse, Meng Bai took the Heavenly Halberd and waved it a few times.
His spiritual essence surged, and the Heavenly Halberd shone brightly, as if a fire dragon was accompanying it. It was murderous.
“What a pity.” Meng Bai tried a few times, a look of pity crossing his face. “If this weapon were a heaven-grade weapon, it would definitely have a place in the Heaven-grade Armament Manual.”
“When my forging skills improve in the future, it will become a heaven-grade weapon,” Zhou Shu said confidently.
As the number of weapon kills increased, the Legendary Armament Canon would unlock the ability to upgrade weapons. At that time, Zhou Shu would be able to upgrade these weapons.
What other forgers couldn’t do was no problem for him.
Meng Bai hesitated for a moment, then said reluctantly, “This Heavenly Halberd is very good. However, it doesn’t suit me. It can’t emit the glory it deserves in my hands. You should find another master for it.”
He reluctantly returned the Heavenly Halberd to Zhou Shu.
With Meng Bai’s status, there was naturally no problem in buying a yellow-grade weapon.
But this was not how Meng Bai saw the problem now. Great Xia was not as powerful as Great Qin. It would be a waste to just keep a good weapon in his hands.
To Meng Bai, this Heavenly Halberd should be used to increase the strength of Great Xia. This was its optimal path.
