Chapter 472: Witchcraft Workshop? Demon Lair?

Until he walked out of Jiuhe Tower, Shang Lu was still marveling at Lu Dao’s thoughtfulness and attentiveness.

After bidding farewell to the beautiful snake and walking out of the government office, Shang Lu carefully looked through the manual and found that the manual recorded in detail every step and precaution for breaking through to the Tongtian realm.

Not only that, in the manual, Lu Dao also made a number of suggestions specifically tailored to his situation.

There is no doubt that this manual was specially written for Shang Lu by Lu Dao before he went into seclusion to break through to the fifth-grade inner palace realm.

This is not much different from hands-on teaching.

Even in the Witch Academy, many of the doctors’ direct disciples did not receive such treatment.

Lu Dao did this, of course, with the intention of repaying Shang Lu for saving his life.

But it was enough to make Shang Lu grateful for Lu Dao’s kindness.

After all, if Lu Dao didn’t leave behind such a breakthrough manual, no one would be able to find fault with him, because he himself was not responsible for teaching. Or he could just write some breakthrough items casually and get away with it.

“All I can do is study this manual carefully and strive to make a breakthrough as soon as possible. I can’t let Uncle Lu’s kindness and expectations go to waste.”

Shang Lu encouraged himself in his heart.

After closing the manual, he took out the paper bird he had torn earlier from his sleeve, pointed with his finger, and while chanting a spell, the paper bird quickly grew larger.

Just as Shang Lu had mounted his paper bird and was about to go home to study the breakthrough manual carefully in preparation for a breakthrough, the Witch Academy Jade Card in his arms began to vibrate and made a series of beeping sounds.

Shang Lu took out the jade token and saw that it was actually a message from Gongshu Ling: “Junior Brother Shang, I heard that you left the Dragon Head Treasure Land?”

Shang Lu was a little surprised, and half-jokingly replied: “Senior sister is well-informed, you didn’t release a wooden kite outside the Dragon Head Treasure Land to monitor me, did you?”

“I would like to do that, but the Witch Academy won’t allow it.”

The Witch Academy doesn’t allow it? Shang Lu couldn’t help but grin when he saw this.

It seems that Gongshu Ling must have tried it before, otherwise how would she know that the Witch Academy does not allow it?
It is normal that the Witch Academy does not allow it.

The outer courtyard is fine, but the people living in the inner mountain are all wizards, and no one likes to be monitored.

Especially the doctors of various disciplines all have their own secret skills, which they will not easily pass on even to their disciples.

If monitoring methods like wooden kites are not banned, then the secret skills of these doctors will surely be stolen by others, right?

However, if someone who is not well-trained learns witchcraft that he cannot control, he will go astray and become crazy and weird.

Gongshu Ling didn’t know what Shang Lu was thinking, nor did he care.

She quickly sent another message: “The Guiding Crane told me that the pollution and evil miasma in your body have been cleansed?”

“Thank you for your concern, Senior Sister. I have been purified now.”

Shang Lu knew that Gongshu Ling’s reason for looking for him was definitely not just out of concern.

Just as he was about to ask Gongshu Ling what was going on, he saw a new message coming in.

“Have you thought about your needs for witch armor? I’m going to refine a new witch armor soon, so we can refine it together.”

“Make a new witch armor? What about the old one?”

“Of course the old one is a spare. Could it be that it is lost?”

Shang Lu thought to himself that it was a good thing that I kept it as a backup. I was afraid that you would say that you sold it second-hand on someone else’s site…

He had really considered Wu Jia’s needs during these days. However, it was difficult to express these words in Fei Xin, so he asked, “Senior Sister, where are you? Is it convenient for me to come and talk to you?”

Gongshu Ling said: “Sure, I’m in the weapon refining workshop, just come over.”

Shang Lu replied “OK”, put away the jade token, asked the paper bird to adjust its direction, and flew straight to Gong Shuling’s weapon refining workshop.

After a while, we saw the cave where the weapon refining workshop was located.

At the same time, a disciple from the Witch Academy was seen coming to deliver materials.

As a result, they unloaded the boxes and ran away far away from the cave.

Not only did he not dare to get close, he seemed to be afraid that a monster would rush out of the cave and capture him.

After watching the Witch Academy disciple leave, Shang Lu took a deep breath and shouted towards the cave: “Senior Sister Gongshu, I’m here.”

This time, Gongshu Ling did not scold him for shouting too loudly.

A night owl perched on a tree outside the cave lowered its head and spoke in human language, saying to him, “Just come in.”

It was the voice of Gongshu Ling.

Shang Lu looked up and saw that this night owl was also a magical weapon, but it had a layer of feathers stuck on its body to camouflage it. Well, this is a good idea. Shang Lu had an idea, but he quickly rejected it.

It is easy to stick feathers on the outside of the witch armor, but it is too easy to stick flesh and blood on it.

Even if a layer of skin and flesh could be stuck to the outside of the witch armor, how to keep it fresh would be a big problem.

It’s impossible to learn a set of methods to raise and refine corpses and use them on Wu Jia, right?

Whether it succeeds or not is another matter, but it is somewhat abnormal.

Shang Lu shook his head and put the ridiculous idea behind him. However, he did not rush into the cave. Instead, he pointed at the wooden box placed outside the cave by the Wu Academy disciples and asked, “Do you need me to help you move it in?”

The night owl on the tree continued to speak in human language: “No need, we are already moving.”

Shang Lu took a closer look and discovered that there was a group of ants under the wooden box, carrying the box into the cave.

He couldn’t help but marvel inwardly, thinking that he had never enjoyed such mechanization and automation in his previous life on Earth, but he didn’t expect that Senior Sister Gongshu would be the first to enjoy it in the world of immortal cultivation.

Then I thought, are these ants also magical tools? They seem to be quite useful.

I wonder how many good things are hidden in Senior Sister Gongshu’s weapon-making workshop?
Maybe this time, besides Wu Jia, we can gain something else.

With curiosity and anticipation, Shang Lu walked into this weapon-making workshop that many Witch Academy disciples were afraid to enter and regarded as a den of dragons and tigers.

You can’t see anything from outside the cave, and it even feels pitch black inside.

But after walking into the cave, you will find that it is like a different world inside.

Not only is the space huge, but it is also bright.

There are magical tools for lighting in the cave, and a magical formation has been built. In addition to providing lighting, it also blows away all the dust and other things out of the cave.

“Wow, it’s still a dust-free laboratory.”

Shang Lu looked around and saw that the cave was spotless. He couldn’t help but marvel at it.

No wonder Senior Sister Gongshu’s weapon-refining skills are better than many teaching assistants and even doctors in the Department of Magical Weapons. This can be seen from these details.

“Come on, I’m in there.”

A disheveled head suddenly floated out from the side, motioning Shang Lu to follow.

Shang Lu almost drew his sword, but luckily he held back.

Looking at it curiously, I found that the head was hideous and strange, with a piece of intestine dragging under the broken neck, and dirty blood dripping continuously.

A mechanical dog follows closely behind it. As soon as dirty blood drops, the mechanical dog will open its mouth to catch the food without waiting for it to hit the ground.

This scene is weird no matter how you look at it.

“Senior Sister, this is the Flying Head Barbarian, right? Have you also refined it into a magical weapon?”

“Yes. But it was not successful and useless. It is a product of a failed experiment.”

Gongshu Ling’s voice came out from Feitouman’s mouth.

Then, she seemed to have thought of something, and turned Fei Tou Man around, looking at Shang Lu with bulging corrupt eyes.

“This isn’t the kind of flesh and blood you want, is it?”

“of course not.”

Shang Lu quickly shook his head.

What kind of flesh and blood is this?
Rather than having a flesh and blood body like this, it is better to refine a corpse… Although they are all perverted, it is better to have less perverted ones.

“I also think that with a flesh and blood body like this, it would be better to become a ghost cultivator or a corpse cultivator.”

Feitouman floated up and down, as if nodding, then turned around and led Shang Lu deeper into the cave.

Shang Lu looked around as he walked.

The more I looked at it, the more surprised I became.

He finally understood why all the disciples in the Witch Academy were afraid of Gongshu Ling.

It’s not just because she gave up her flesh and blood and transformed herself into a witch, but also because of her weapon refining workshop.

If Shang Lu hadn’t known Gongshu Ling’s situation, he would have suspected that he had entered the lair of some evil cultivator…
