"We agreed we could take whatever we wanted, so why is there only one item? This doesn't quite match what we agreed upon," Chu Feng said.
"One is enough," Yin Zhuanghong said. With that, she stepped onto the stairs and headed up to the second floor.
Seeing this, Chu Feng hurriedly followed after her.
Upon reaching the second floor, it was just as empty, but in the center sat a saber.
The saber appeared to be forged from white steel and looked extraordinarily sharp.
Chu Feng could tell that this blade was crafted with exceptional workmanship, but it wouldn't offer any benefit to martial cultivators. However, if it fell into the hands of a world spirit, it would boost the world spirit's combat power.
"A true world spirit master indeed."
Chu Feng couldn't help but marvel, because even with his current abilities, he wouldn't be able to forge such a weapon.
On the second floor, Yin Zhuanghong merely glanced at the saber before continuing her ascent.
And Chu Feng, after his moment of admiration, continued climbing as well.
As they went on, Chu Feng and Yin Zhuanghong noticed that each floor of the Armament Heaven Tower held a single weapon.
Moreover, the higher the floor, the better the weapon.
Under these circumstances, Chu Feng and Yin Zhuanghong simply stopped looking altogether and focused solely on climbing.
It should be noted that the Armament Heaven Tower had a total of eight thousand seven hundred and sixty-five floors. If the weapon on the second floor was already of such fine quality, one could only imagine how extraordinary the weapon on the top floor must be.
However, when Chu Feng and Yin Zhuanghong reached the one hundred and first floor, they realized something was off.
The weapon on the one hundred and first floor was not just slightly better than the one on the hundredth—it represented a leap in quality.
Below the one hundred and first floor, the weapons could be taken freely.
But the weapons from the one hundred and first floor onward were protected by formations, and one had to break through those formations to claim them.
"We were told we could take whatever we wanted, but it turns out we can only take one. Now we have to break through formations too? It seems the rumors really can't be trusted," Chu Feng sighed.
"I actually think it's quite reasonable. Otherwise, if someone entered and took all the weapons, what would be left for those who came after?"
"Take whichever weapon matches your ability—I don't see anything wrong with that," Yin Zhuanghong said.
"I was just making an observation. I didn't say there was anything wrong with it," Chu Feng said.
After that, Yin Zhuanghong and Chu Feng continued their ascent.
Without question, the higher the floor, the better the weapon—and the more powerful the formations guarding them. The early formations were practically nothing to Chu Feng, but the later ones required real effort to break through.
Especially on the eight thousand seven hundred and sixty-fourth floor.
This formation was extremely dangerous—several times more perilous than the killing formation outside the Armament Heaven Tower.
Breaking through this protective formation would absolutely not be a simple task. It would require careful preparation.
However, the weapon guarded by this formation had reached the absolute pinnacle of craftsmanship.
It was a longsword, entirely golden, exquisitely crafted. Though it didn't look particularly imposing from the outside, the aura it emanated was one of majesty—this sword was the king among weapons.
The other weapons, no matter how impressive, didn't even have names.
But this longsword was the only named weapon Chu Feng had encountered so far.
And this sword was called the Imperial Nether Sword!!!
Throughout their journey, Chu Feng had seen many weapons that caught his eye, but after laying eyes on this longsword, he abandoned interest in all the others.
Chu Feng felt that if he had to choose right now, he would undoubtedly choose the Imperial Nether Sword.
"It seems you've been tempted as well."
At that moment, Chu Feng looked over at Yin Zhuanghong and found that her gaze remained fixed upon the Imperial Nether Sword.
