[Heaven Pillar Spear]: Grade: Epic, Stats: Strength +20, Intelligence +20, Constitution +20, Agility +20, Description: Originally the Legendary grade Piercing Snake Spear, the spear fused with the Heaven Pillar General Star’s power and became a General Armament, the Heaven Pillar Spear.
The Heaven Pillar Spear had fairly well-rounded stats, potentially because of the nature of the Heaven Pillar Star itself. At the same time, the Heaven Pillar Spear had six special effects, and the first five were the same as the other General Armaments.
Zhao Fu was somewhat curious about the ‘Soldier Aura Formation’ – Bai Qi’s was an eagle, Wang Jian’s was a tiger, and Wei Liao’s was a wolf, so he couldn’t help but wonder what Meng Tian’s would be.
Zhao Fu then looked at the Heaven Pillar Spear’s sixth effect:
[Balanced Soldier]: Soldiers receive large boosts to attack, defense, speed, recovery, and skill resistance.
The Heaven Pillar Spear’s sixth effect gave soldiers boosts in all areas, making them quite balanced and suitable for all sorts of battles. No matter what sort of military profession or being they were against, they would have great resistances.
Even though the sixth effect wasn’t as powerful or destructive as the sixth effect of the other Stars, it was quite balanced and comprehensive, so Zhao Fu was quite satisfied with it.
The Heaven Pillar Spear looked quite noble and seemed to be made out of jade. There was also a Flood Dragon engraved on it. Its spearhead gave off an icy light and seemed to be incredibly sharp.
After looking at the Heaven Pillar Spear, Zhao Fu returned it to Meng Tian. Now, Great Qin had four General Armaments, all of which were quite powerful. They would greatly help in battles, and Zhao Fu wanted as many as possible.
However, General Armaments required Soldier Souls, which were quite rare. Only powerful soldiers who had died would leave behind such things, and it took even Great Qin a long time to gather 100 Soldier Souls.
At the same time, Zhao Fu started to feel great anticipation towards King Armaments, which he would be able to fuse after obtaining 24 General Armaments.
“Your Majesty, each General Armament can increase the purity of Great Qin’s Fate,” Xianru exclaimed after detecting the changes in Great Qin’s Fate.
“Oh?” Zhao Fu felt quite surprised, and after sensing Great Qin’s Fate, he found that it had indeed become purer. The purer the Fate was the better – the Fate itself would become stronger and denser, making it more difficult to scatter.
“Let’s go!” Zhao Fu smiled – this General Armament would be quite useful. After returning to the Great Qin City, Zhao Fu found that there wasn’t much for him to do, so he went to a small creek and took out the One World Rod as he started to cultivate.
A few hours later, his cultivation was interrupted by Li Wen, who reported, “Your Majesty, our team finished exploring one of the passages and discovered a historical remnant.”
“A historical remnant?” When he heard this, Zhao Fu opened his eyes – every historical remnant contained great benefits, especially those that contained legacies. Zhao Fu had always felt that the underground region wasn’t simple, so he stood up and made the One World Rod become the Royal Wood Sword.
Zhao Fu walked forwards, and Li Wen followed behind him as Zhao Fu asked, “What’s the historical remnant like? Has anyone gone in to explore it yet?”
Li Wen explained that after giving the 100 Soldier Souls to Zhao Fu, he had returned to the underground region and opened up a new passage. He had never thought that there would be a historical remnant within it.
Li Wen had already sent a few people to explore it, and he found that there wasn’t any danger within. After that, he came to report to Zhao Fu.
Soon, Zhao Fu arrived at the underground region. At the start, they had blocked off the thousand or so passages for safety reasons, and after such a long time, they had already explored 100 or so.
Zhao Fu followed Li Wen into a passage, which was just as dark and eerie as the other ones, giving him chills.
Li Wen and Zhao Fu walked until they reached a large area, which was where the exploration team was waiting. Seeing Zhao Fu arrive, they immediately respectfully bowed as they called out, “Your Majesty!”
Zhao Fu nodded before looking at this historical remnant.
This historical remnant was about three kilometers wide, and there were all sorts of structures within it. Even though the historical remnant was incredibly old and ruined, one could guess that it was a manufacturing workshop as opposed to a residential area.
The ground was covered by a thick layer of dust, and their surroundings were deathly silent to the point that it was terrifying. There were many skeletons on the ground wearing incredibly tattered clothing. The skeletons here hadn’t turned into Undead, so they weren’t dangerous.
After Zhao Fu walked in, Li Wen and the team followed behind him. Zhao Fu carefully looked around him as he walked, and after reaching the center, he hadn’t detected any danger.
Here, Zhao Fu found a picture of a dragon with golden wings – this place was most likely related to that mysterious empire. Zhao Fu had always felt quite curious about that mysterious empire, as any empire with the Heaven and Earth Refining Formation would definitely be quite extraordinary.
It was a pity that Zhao Fu didn’t know what the dragon picture was or what empire it represented even with the information from God Kerr.
Putting that empire aside, Zhao Fu wondered what this workshop was used for. He ordered his people to carefully look around to see if they could find anything.
Ten minutes later, a soldier reported, “Your Majesty! This subordinate found a spatial ring on one of the skeletons.”
The ring that the soldier brought over was gray and didn’t have any light, and it even had a few cracks in it. It had been corroded by the passage of time and seemed like it would break soon.
Zhao Fu looked inside the spatial ring and found a few pieces of clothes, a few tools, a blueprint, and a book.
Zhao Fu ignored the clothes and tools because they were quite ordinary, and he took out the book.
Zhao Fu scanned through the book and saw that it was very archaic writing that he couldn’t understand. Just as he was about to give up reading it, he remembered that this language was in the information he had obtained from God Kerr.
With this knowledge, Zhao Fu looked through the book curiously, and his face immediately went pale – Great Qin was in great danger!
