Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1577 The Armory of the Subterranean Race

Gemushan quickly led Ye Qing away from one side of the palace, and soon they arrived at a huge gate!

Ye Qing looked at the enormous building in front of him, which seemed completely out of place elsewhere!

“Back then, our ancestors didn’t know how long they would hide here, so when they built this city, they made this weapons warehouse a bit bigger!” Gemushan said as he walked to the front of the gate.

After scanning him, the door slowly opened to both sides.

Ahead lay a vast space!

Gemushan led Ye Qing inside. As soon as they entered, Ye Qing was stunned. In front of him were piles of weapons and armor, haphazardly piled together!

Ye Qing walked over, picked up a weapon and glanced at it. He was stunned. It was a sixth-grade sword, containing scorching fire attribute energy. However, as a sixth-grade weapon, it was like trash and was casually piled on the ground!

“All the weapons on this floor are sixth-grade weapons!” Gemushan said.

Ye Qing was stunned. He looked at the immeasurable number of weapons in front of him and said, "Don't tell me that all of these things, piled up like garbage, are sixth-grade weapons!"

“Of course!” Gemushan nodded and said, “Only sixth-grade weapons are qualified to enter the armory. After they forge sixth-grade weapons, they can exchange them for points, which can be used to buy food and drink in the city! There is no conflict in this city; as long as we can solve the problem of food and clothing, that’s enough.”

Although Ye Qing knew that they must have forged many weapons over the endless years, he did not expect that the number of sixth-grade weapons would be so huge!

“This floor isn’t very interesting. It might be useful if war breaks out in the future and we need to arm most of the people. The front is a bit messy, but the back has complete sets of standard weapons and armor, which are easy to identify on the battlefield!” Gemushan said, “Let’s go to the upper floors.”

As he spoke, he led Ye Qing to the second floor, which had far fewer items than the first floor.

"This floor contains seventh-grade weapons, but there are far fewer of them. Seventh-grade weapons require the combined efforts of a Venerable-level expert or many Domain Lords to forge," Gemushan said. "There are standard-issue weapons over there, but due to material limitations, only three thousand sets were ever made!"

Ye Qingren is unconscious!

Three thousand sets, and that's just the standard version, seventh-grade weapons!

But then Ye Qing's expression shifted. The Earth Core Clan could create so many weapons just from the resources inside a single planet's core. Then... how terrifying are the weapons and armor of the Heavenly Court, which monopolizes the resources of the entire universe?

The Heavenly Court and the Chaotic Star Sea are currently engaged in battle, but Ye Qing is wondering if the core secrets of the Heavenly Court have yet to be revealed!

"There aren't many weapons and armor of grade eight or higher!" Gemushan said, leading Ye Qing to the third floor. There were only a few hundred weapons and armor of grade eight or higher in total!

Gemushan said, "Forging an eighth-grade weapon is quite laborious, mainly because the materials are scarce. In the core of this planet, most of the materials are seventh-grade, and although there are some eighth-grade materials, they are few in number!"

In fact, there were quite a few, hundreds of them, including swords, spears, halberds, and all kinds of weapons!

“I’ll take you to see the fourth floor!” Gemushan said.

As they talked, the two walked toward the fourth floor. Gemushan said as they walked, "The fourth floor has ninth-grade weapons, but over the years, my Earth Core Clan has only forged eleven weapons."

"The main reason for this is the scarcity of materials!" Gemushan said proudly. "According to the records of our ancestors, there are only a handful of people in the entire universe who can forge ninth-grade weapons. Apart from our Earth Core Clan, only the Golden Crow Clan is said to be able to forge them."

“Therefore, ninth-grade weapons are extremely rare. The Golden Crow Clan was also affected back then. I wonder what their situation is now!” Gemushan said.

Ye Qing's expression shifted slightly as he said, "I'm not familiar with the matter of weapon forging in this universe!"

Upon arriving in the Ninth City, every single weapon was preserved in impeccable condition.

Although the quantity cannot compare to Zhang Tianlin's treasure, Zhang Tianlin's items were obtained through tomb raiding, while these nine items were crafted by them.

Moreover, if they have enough materials, they can continue to build.

As for how many people in the universe can forge ninth-grade weapons, Ye Qing didn't know. He could ask the people in the Ziwei Star System after he left this place.

"Ye Qing!" At this moment, Ge Mushan said, "You are our chosen one. Everything in this factory belongs to you. You can take as much as you want!"

Ye Qing's throat tightened!

He looked at the Gemu Mountain in front of him, then pondered and said, "Right now, it's not appropriate to take too much. I owe you a huge favor!"

"Please don't say that!" Gemushan said, "Compared to returning to our hometown, this is nothing at all. As long as you can lead us away from here and back to the spirit world in the future, then everything will be worth it!"

Ye Qing didn't know how to answer. These people from the Earth's core were too simple and honest. Once they believed they were their chosen ones, they began to open their hearts to each other.

Ye Qing was indeed somewhat tempted!

Among the nine pieces of ninth-grade equipment before him were three swords, two sabers, a spear, two suits of armor, and a pair of golden gauntlets!

Ye Qing's gaze fell on the two suits of armor.

This armor is somewhat similar; it appears to be a black robe.

“You want armor? You can try it on!” Gemushan said.

In fact, Ye Qing is currently wearing a set of Fierce Jade Armor, and the Fierce Jade Armor is very useful, enough to withstand a Saint's attack.

Lin Qianyu's Vermilion Bird Armor and Vermilion Bird Divine Sword are both of the ninth grade, or even the best among the ninth grade weapons, and she has no shortage of them.

But Long Rui, Ling Yingxue, and Yan Song didn't have any!

These are the people who will fight alongside me in the future.

With one more piece of ninth-grade armor, they would have one more layer of protection!
