Chapter 84 - Extracting a Mountain?! A Riot of Divine Weapons!
Chapter 84: Extracting a Mountain?! A Riot of Divine Weapons!
No one knew what kind of brainstorm Gu Xi was brewing. To others, the Sword Mountain was just a mountain, but to Gu Xi, the treasures on it were inexhaustible.
After all, the treasures buried in it were those divine weapons from thousands of years ago. He could simply take out a flawed weapon and repair it, making it come back to life. It would be enough to shock the world.
However, Gu Xi could not test each and every one of them. He did not have the time or opportunity to do so, and he did not know which divine weapon was the most powerful.
He could only use the System four times now. Rather than trying his luck, he might as well take the best one and extract it. Of course, he had to extract its foundation.
There might be strong and weak among these divine weapons, but there was one thing that would not change, so...
Gu Xi gave the order without hesitation.
[System extracting Sword Mountain]
[Ding! Extracting –]
He actually wanted to extract the entire mountain! This idea was simply too crazy.
Hearing the notification sound in his mind, Gu Xi heaved a sigh of relief. After all, he was also thinking of taking a gamble. Due to the special nature of the Sword Mountain, he was not sure if he could succeed. Now, it seemed that everything could be extracted.
Since there were so many divine weapons on the Sword Mountain, it would be a pity if he only took one of them. He might as well make a move on the entire mountain. He was like a child, and he wanted to take all of them! He would not let go of any one of them.
Moreover, Gu Xi guessed that there must be some special reason why the Emperor chose this place back then.
It was impossible for him to randomly choose a place and make it a resting place for these divine weapons. Moreover, these divine weapons all had their own spirituality. Some of them had even been stained with blood from the killings. They had their own murderous aura. If he wanted to suppress them, it would definitely be something even more powerful.
After so many years, the entire Sword Mountain had been stained with the spiritual aura of countless divine weapons. If the Sword Mountain were to take a shape, it would definitely be an extraordinary item.
[Detected that Sword Mountain contains impurities #%@]
Gu Xi’s heart sank. He had extracted living beings and dead items before. However, extracting an entire mountain was an unprecedented thing. Therefore, he was not very confident.
Could it be that the system did not detect it, or that it had detected it, but based on his current cultivation level, he was still unable to reach that level? Was this why it appeared so messy?
After a moment, there was no reaction or prompt in his mind, as if the system had suddenly become stuck.
Just as Gu Xi was guessing, the prompt sounded again.
[Do you wish to proceed with the extraction?]
[Due to the special nature of the extraction, it is very likely that the extraction will fail!]
[Yes!]
Even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, Gu Xi still wanted to give it a try.
However, in the eyes of the others, Gu Xi’s actions did not seem to have any effect.
“Can we stop wasting time? What exactly is this kid waiting for? Trying to be mysterious is just a waste of time.”
“I heard that he was like this during the Dao of alchemy competition as well. It’s hard to figure out what his next step will be.”
“Green Lotus Princess is really blind to speak up for such a person.”
Even if he was trying to act cool, he should have the ability to do so. However, it was not like they were refining pills. No one present believed that a person could cultivate two Dao at the same time.
Even Bai Haoyu had a playful expression on his face.
“What do you guys think this kid is up to? It’s already a foregone conclusion, so why isn’t he giving up?”
Three people would be chosen from the weapon refining competition, and the rest of the rankings were all treated as failures. Now, the results were in front of everyone, Wang Dazhu deserved to be number one. Ou Yechen was second, and Bai Haoyu was third.
Ou Yechen had nothing to do with these matters. He was probably still recovering from the blow of losing to Wang Dazhu. “Let him be. In any case, none of this has anything to do with me.”
Wang Dazhu’s view was different from theirs. “I like this little brother’s temperament. Let’s not underestimate him.”
He had an ordinary background, and because of his recklessness, he had been ridiculed quite a bit along the way. Presumably, it was because of this reason that he was different from people like Bai Haoyu and Ou Yechen, who had high standards. Instead, he rather admired Gu Xi’s way of doing things.
Bai Haoyu could not help but roll his eyes, not commenting on his words.
Perhaps Gu Xi was lucky, or perhaps the Heavens were kind to him.
[Congratulations, host, for successfully extracting the soul of the 10,000-year-old Sword Mountain!]
The system notification in his mind made him feel relieved.
He succeeded!
It could be said that there were many twists and turns, and Gu Xi’s mood was like a roller coaster. Anyone who knew that he had such thoughts would be amazed at his whimsical imagination.
However, Gu Xi had did it!
Extracting the entire Sword Mountain was something that no one dared to think about.
Everyone was already impatient. Seeing that Gu Xi had been in a daze for so long, they mocked, “What’s the use of looking at the Sword Mountain? Is he expecting Sword Mountain to give him a response?”
The moment they finished speaking.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Sword Mountain suddenly burst out with waves of buzzing sounds, giving everyone a fright. An unprecedented tremor came, and it was even stronger than the previous few times.
The entire mountain was affected by something, so much so that many people fell to the ground. Countless pieces of gravel rolled down the mountain, as if the Sword mMountain was about to disintegrate.
If someone were to go 3,000 meters underground at this moment, they would find that the lower part of Sword Mountain was disintegrating at an extremely terrifying speed, and a ball of white light suddenly flew out from the depths of the Earth’s core.
The person who had spoken earlier opened his mouth wide. His mouth was so wide that it could fit an entire egg. He trembled as he said, “Sword, Sword, Sword Mountain really responded to him!”
One had to know that Sword Mountain had been extremely calm before this. However, when Gu Xi was preparing to refine his weapon, there was a sudden movement. Who else could it be if not him!
