Chapter 1695
Chapter 1695
Before Dao Lord Xing died, he had left behind a jade slip, which recorded some of Kong Sheng's research on the Primordial Chaos Dao World.
A million years ago, Xing County had come into contact with people from the Upper Realm, which became the source of information for Kong Sheng's research.
On the jade slip, Kong Sheng had once conceived a treasure ship that could, in theory, withstand the tearing force of the Realm Sea.
However, theory was theory after all. In order to successfully build such a treasure ship, Kong Sheng lacked the most important thing.
That thing was the power core of the treasure ship. The treasure ship needed a special crystal core that could absorb and contain super-dense energy. Only then could it withstand the tearing force of the Realm Sea and sail smoothly.
And the forging method of this crystal core was in the hands of the Dwarf Sovereign.
Furthermore, the difficulty of forging was simply too high. Even if they knew the method, only the Dwarf Sovereign could forge it in the entire Chaos Sea.
This was why Kong Sheng had imprisoned the Dwarf Sovereign back then. He had always wanted to use his power to forge the required crystal core.
With this crystal core, not only would the treasure ship crossing the Realm Sea become a reality, but it could also be used as the core to forge a large number of weapons with unimaginable destructive power.
Back then, Gu Chen had heard the Dwarf Sovereign mention the reason he had been imprisoned by Kong Sheng, so when Zhou Fengling gave him the jade slip, he quickly passed it to the Dwarf Sovereign.
In the whole world, only the Dwarf Sovereign's forging skills could turn Kong Sheng's various theoretical weapons into reality.
And the Dwarf Sovereign did not disappoint Gu Chen. Today, the treasure ship had successfully set sail.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Gu Chen looked at the majestic treasure ship and said to the Dwarf Sovereign.
This treasure ship could travel in the Chaos Sea, which was undoubtedly a huge development in the Chaos Sea.
It could be used in an unimaginable range. From now on, even without Gu Chen, cultivators would have the possibility of traveling in the Chaos Sea.
Of course, to really reach that step, a lot of effort was needed. For example, they had to solve the problem of losing their sense of direction in the Chaos Sea.
"Good fella, if you can build such a treasure ship, why didn't you do it earlier?"
Ge Huang stared at the Dwarf Sovereign. If such a treasure ship had been built earlier, who knew how many refugees they could have saved during the Chaos Sea in the past hundred years.
"Do you think that treasured ships are cabbages that can be refined just because you want to? Do you know how complicated it is? "
The Dwarf Sovereign glanced at Ge Huang in disdain. "Even with Kong Sheng's blueprint, it took the Old Man a few decades to successfully build the hull of the ship. It took another few decades to make the hull and the Crystal Core fit perfectly. Theory is theory. Although Kong Sheng's ideas are good, when it comes to implementing them, many things have to be changed. "
"I'm just asking because I don't understand. You are the authority in this field."
Ge Huang smiled embarrassedly. Then, he eagerly jumped onto the boat and touched it here and there.
Everyone curiously studied the treasure ship. To them, a ship that could sail in the Primal Chaos was simply too awesome.
"Other than this ship, can the weapons that Kong Sheng mentioned be developed?"
Gu Chen was very satisfied with the treasured ship. When he thought of the theoretical weapons he had seen in the jade slips, his heart couldn't help but be moved.
After entering the Primordial Chaos Dao World, they would encounter many dangers. If they could turn those weapons into reality, everyone's combat strength would undoubtedly increase.
"The most difficult problem is the compatibility between the Crystal Core and the weapons. In the past century, I have improved the forging mystic arts of the Crystal Core. Although I have not tried it, it shouldn't be difficult to develop those weapons. It will take much less time than this ship," the Dwarf Sovereign answered truthfully.
The Dwarf Sovereign answered honestly, but a hint of hesitation could be seen on his face.
"You don't want to refine those weapons?" Gu Chen could tell what he was thinking and asked with a smile.
The Dwarf Sovereign nodded, his expression turning solemn. "The forging mystic arts of the Crystal Core are only passed down from generation to generation among the Dwarf Race's Patriarchs. Before every generation's Patriarch imparted the forging mystic arts, he warned us not to easily refine the Crystal Core."
"Why? This weapon is so powerful. Since the Dwarf Race has grasped this technology, if it was used effectively, it wouldn't … "
The Evil Shark Sovereign was a straightforward person, but he realized that it was inappropriate at the end of his sentence. He immediately shut his mouth.
Apart from the Dwarf Sovereign, the rest of the Dwarf Race could be said to be extinct.
The Dwarf Race had grasped such a terrifying technology, but they did not use it until the extinction of the Dwarf Race. It was hard to understand.
"Using the Crystal Core as a power source, we can indeed make many killing weapons, but it will also bring terrible disasters."
The Dwarf Sovereign did not care about the Evil Shark Sovereign's straightforwardness. His eyes were filled with reminiscence.
"In the history of the Dwarf Race, our ancestors used the Crystal Core to make a large number of killing weapons, which led to wars and plunged the people into misery and suffering."
"Later on, a tall tree attracts the wind. The Dwarf Race was attacked by all the major forces. We were almost on the verge of extinction."
"Because of this, our ancestors realized that overly powerful weapons would only lead to fear and war. Therefore, they set down a rule that forbade our descendants to easily refine the Crystal Core."
The Dwarf Sovereign sighed. "The Old Man agreed with our ancestor's rule. Something as dangerous as the Crystal Core should be hidden. However, because of this, when the Xing County's army suddenly appeared in front of us with a large number of killing weapons, we lost the power to fight back!"
The crowd fell silent. They could understand the pain in the Dwarf Sovereign's heart.
It was understandable that the Dwarf Sovereign abided by the ancestor's rule. However, because of this, he lost all his family forever.
It was hard to say whether his choice was right or wrong. However, after experiencing the tragic death of his clansmen, he was still in awe of the weapons, instead of being crazy and reckless. This was admirable enough.
"The Crystal Core can be used to benefit the people, but it should never be used to make killing weapons. Even if we have good intentions, we cannot guarantee that these killing weapons will not be used to harm innocent people. "
The Dwarf King said seriously. This was his philosophy. His people had died because of Kong Sheng's weapons of slaughter. Therefore, he didn't want the more powerful weapons that Kong Sheng was researching to come into being. He didn't want the other races to suffer the same pain as the Dwarfs.
However, he was now under Gu Chen's command. He knew that Gu Chen was not a person who only knew how to kill. Therefore, if Gu Chen asked him to make the Crystal Core, he might go against his principles and agree.
He did not want to, but he could not refuse. Therefore, he told Gu Chen what he thought.
"You will achieve what you insist on. You are right. "
Gu Chen understood the Dwarf Sovereign's thoughts and affirmed him.
Everyone had their own set of principles. Even if the Dwarf Sovereign was now his man, he wouldn't force him to do anything he didn't want to do.
Moreover, if the Dwarf Sovereign was a person who would do anything to achieve his goals, he might not have become his companion.
The reason why they were able to work together was because they had the same bottom line.
