  Zhen Hua smiled slightly. “This isn’t made to take your breath away. It has a practical side to it. I mentioned just now that Heavenly Refinement requires us to guide heaven-and-earth power, which will be influenced by various elements. Not only is it unstable, it’ll also be weakened and absorbed by many entities. That’s why I built this Heavenly Ascension Platform. To tell you the truth, all my Heavenly Refined products are refined here. This Heavenly Ascension Platform alone costs more than a complete suit of four-word battle armor. However, it can raise my success rate by ten percent.”


  Tang Wulin was shocked to the core. What was the price of four-word battle armor? It was definitely an astronomical figure! His uncle master went so far as to say that this Heavenly Ascension Platform was more expensive that. It was unbelievable. The sole purpose of this was construction was to raise the success rate by ten percent.

  If the success rate for Heavenly Refinement under normal circumstances was ten percent, then would it be twenty percent here?

  Zhen Hua could tell what he was thinking about. He said with a faint smile, “Are you thinking that the success rate of my Heavenly Refinement will become twenty percent here?”


  Tang Wulin nodded, “Isn’t it?”


  Zhen Hua shook his head. “If it were that easy to raise the overall success rate by ten percent, would Divine Craftsmen still be in short supply? I’m talking about raising my own success rate by ten percent, which means it’ll raise the overall success rate by one percent.”


  Incredulous, Tang Wulin eyes bulged. The success rate was only increased by one percent after spending such a huge amount of money? It was unheard of.

  Zhen Hua brought him to the center of the rooftop. He tapped the floor lightly with his right foot. With the deep hum of mechanical parts, metallic structures started rising in the center of the rooftop.

  The first structure that came into view was a forging table, which was at least five times larger than a usual model. The whole thing was a light-silver color. Tang Wulin gave it a glance and could feel a mysterious force contained within it. The sensation he felt was similar to the domain unleashed by his three-word battle armor.

  Since the metal itself had a domain-like feeling to it, this could only mean one thing. This forging table’s surface was itself made from divine metal.

  This was too extravagant! To think that someone would actually make a forging table out of divine metal.

  A few racks rose around the forging table, forming an octagon. There were up to a hundred pieces of metal on every rack, about a thousand altogether. The exhaustive range left Tang Wulin speechless.

  Zhen Hua said, “Other than me, you’re the second person to have set foot in this place. Even your teacher’s never been here before. It’s because only those who’ll surely become Divine Craftsman can come here. In the future, I hope that you can be a master of this place as well. You don’t have to worry about resources here. The metals that you’ve used will replenish immediately. The Blacksmith’s Association’s resources will be dedicated to this. If you want it, you’ll have an endless supply of resources.”


  Zhen Hua pointed at the sky. “With the addition of this Heavenly Ascension Platform, as long as you become a Divine Craftsman, you can use it directly. You may forge Heavenly Refined products here in the future.”


  Tang Wulin nodded vigorously. “Uncle master, I’ll surely work hard.”


  Zhen Hua smiled faintly. He had no intention of concealing his intention to tempt Tang Wulin. “The Blacksmith’s Association will have a successor. Watch and learn.”


  As he said this, Zhen Hua stretched out his right hand. Two chunks of metal flew out of the Treasure Cabinet on the side and landed onto the forging table in the center.

  Tang Wulin interest was piqued and looked on with full attention.

  He had been studying forging under Zhen Hua for a long time. However, this was his first time witnessing Zhen Hua doing Heavenly Refinement. In truth, even in the world of blacksmiths, there were not many who had the opportunity to witness this.

  Zhen Hua placed his right hand on the forging table before him and gave it a slight press. Something intriguing happened. The forging table’s surface seemed to melt. Then, it seemed to have opened its mouth and swallowed the two chunks of metal.

  Incredible! The forging table was like a living being. It was a treasure in itself already.

  At the same time, Tang Wulin could clearly feel the change in Zhen Hua’s aura. That was a very intriguing feeling. If Tang Wulin closed his eyes, his uncle master would have disappeared in his senses. It was as if his uncle master had completely merged with the world.

  Around him, the Heavenly Ascension Platform was changing as well.

  The initially transparent glass dome was gradually painted with colors as he looked at it from the inside.

  The colors were very faint, but they continued changing.Tang Wulin could feel the elemental density in the area intensifying. With Zhen Hua at the center, the various elements were increasing in density.

  Zhen Hua was releasing a unique type of aura. It seemed to have been activated by his spiritual power. Tang Wulin quickly found out the secrets behind this Heavenly Ascension Platform. It was like a spiritual power amplifier. It amplified Zhen Hua’s spiritual power outward through itself and hence guided more elements of every kind to this place.

  Tang Wulin was very confident in this regard. His spiritual power was of Spirit Domain realm. His position there was steady, and not unstable as he was before.

  If the Spirit Domain could be divided into ten ranks, through his tireless cultivation and the completion of the first of the Sea God’s Nine Trials, Tang Wulin’s spiritual cultivation base was currently at the fifth rank. He could be considered a soul master with mid-rank Spirit Domain.

  Even a Limit Douluo might not reach Spirit Domain. The more advanced a soul master was, the more difficult it would be to increase his spiritual power, and there might even be some risks involved. Tang Wulin was only able to continuously improve himself until this rank under a combination of luck and favorable conditions.

  At that moment, a dark red vortex appeared in the center of the forging table. The vortex surged upward and gradually formed a dark red fireball as it protruded outward.

  When Tang Wulin looked closely, he noticed that this fireball was the two metals he had seen just now. Under such a high temperature, they had melted completely and mixed with each other.

  At this point, Zhen Hua suddenly opened his eyes. They were extremely bright and focused. His body had not increased in size, but he exuded a presence that seemed to connect the heavens with the earth.

  He joined his hands together and a surge of his formidable soul power instantly burst forth. A great, dark red hammer condensed from soul power immediately appeared.

  “Bam!” With a single strike, the dark red fireball was flattened.

  This……

  Tang Wulin stared at this scene with his mouth agape. This was his first time seeing a metal being instantly flattened during forging. Would that not destroy its structure?

  However, much to his surprise, he quickly discovered that it would not!

  The flattened metal bounced back up. Tang Wulin was astonished that the two mixed metals had increased in harmony rate.

  He was also a rank-8 blacksmith. Naturally, he was very familiar with fuse forging. However, he could not do what Zhen Hua just did. He achieved fuse forging in one strike!

  That was right. With a single hammer strike, the fuse forging of the two metals was completed. Also, a beam of light a foot tall shot toward the skies.

  Thousand refined with spirit! Grade One Thousand Refined! The best there was!

  This was not simple forging. This was a realm where the blacksmith’s spirit was connected to the act of forging itself. Tang Wulin was not only awestruck as he looked on, he even felt his blood boil.

  This was the extreme form of forging, the state which he sought after!

  The great hammer rose and fell.

  “Bam!” This time, the sound of the blow sounded louder. A faint life aura was born from this heavy hammer strike.

  By then, Tang Wulin was even more focused. He noticed that although the hammer fell quickly, throughout the entire process, the various elements in the Heavenly Ascension Platform gathered toward him like rivers flowing into the sea. It was as if the great hammer itself was a funnel that converged all the energies into a single point.

  The influx of the immense amount of energy was flung into the two metals with this hammer strike.

  Also, what shocked Tang Wulin even more was that Zhen Hua’s spiritual power was clearly not at Spirit Domain realm yet. However, his control of the elements was so masterful that he could manipulate every particle.

  The inserted elements were clearly adjusted by him during the process of the hammer’s fall. They were infused into the metal at a certain ratio. From the beginning until the end, Zhen Hua’s spirits were at their maximum.

  The still-flattened metal let out a buzz, and it was clearly emitting a glow from its surface.

  Spirit Forged with a single hammer strike!

  Achieving Thousand Refinement with a single hammer strike was impressive enough, but one could still argue that it was thanks to the effects of the forging table which was like a divine tool. However, what could be said about achieving Spirit Forge with a single strike?

  Many blacksmiths got stuck at rank-4 and would never learn to Spirit Forge their entire lives. However, in the hands of this Divine Craftsman, Spirit Forging was completed with a single hammer strike. If this had been seen by the blacksmiths from the Blacksmith’s Association, they would have been beside themselves.

  Zhen Hua seemed to have gotten used to this. He gripped his great hammer with both hands and raised it above his head. This time, he raised it higher than the previous two times.
