"Since you find it inconvenient to reveal your identity, I'll just call you Dao." Lin Shen told the white-haired Celestial everything he knew, then asked, "Dao, what's with my body, and can it ever return to normal?"
"I quite like the na Dao, let's stick with that," the white-haired Celestial said. "You're quite unfortunate. With Golden Star being so vast, you could have landed anywhere, but you just had to end up in the Micro Immortal Realm. This place has been shrunk down to a re inch by an immortal being using supre power, forming this Micro Immortal Realm."
"Any creature that steps into this place will be affected by the power of the Micro Immortal Realm and beco miniature. To return to normal, you must remove the miniaturizing power from your body."
"How can I remove this miniaturizing power?" Lin Shen felt a surge of joy upon hearing this but did not show it.
After hearing what Dao had said, Lin Shen already had an idea in his mind.
The power of miniaturization only exists within this area of the Micro Immortal Realm. The reason Evolution Theory has been unable to restore his body to its original state is probably due to the overwhelming power here that continues to exert its influence, preventing Evolution Theory from truly taking effect in a short period of ti.
However, as long as he leaves the boundary of the Micro Immortal Realm and is no longer under the influence of its power, Evolution Theory might slowly begin to work, allowing his body to return to normal.
Of course, this was a last resort. If there were other viable thods, there would be no need to take such a risk.
"It's difficult if you say it's difficult, easy if you say it's easy. You just need to find soone who can break the power of the Micro Immortal Realm, and naturally, you can rid yourself of the miniaturization." Dao said with a smile.
"Where can I find such a person?" Lin Shen asked with a wry smile.
Dao had said the power of miniaturization was left by an immortal being. Where could Lin Shen find another such immortal being, when he didn't know any such important figures yet?
"If you can't find one, I might be able to think of a way to help you, but since we're strangers and have no friendship, I naturally can't help you for nothing. How about this, you stay and help forge for a hundred days, and I have a way to help you get rid of the miniaturization from your body. What do you think?" Dao said.
"I'm just afraid that if I vanish for a hundred days, the people from the Celestial Master Institute will think I've died on Golden Star and send soone else to find my body," Lin Shen said.
"Don't worry about that, the miniaturized realm doesn't just shrink the vast mountains and rivers, if you stay here for a hundred days, only a few days will have passed on the outside," Dao said.
"Is the Micro Immortal Realm really that magical? Then why does the day and night cycle here match the one outside?" Lin Shen felt Dao was deceiving him.
"I can't explain that either. If you don't believe it, you are free to leave and see how much ti has passed once you're outside the realm. You'll know whether it's true or false." Dao clearly had no intention of explaining.
Lin Shen hesitated, as Dao seed to have no reason to lie to him with sothing that could be so easily disproved.
"Alright, it's settled then. I'll help you forge, and in return, you help get rid of the miniaturization on my body." Lin Shen pondered for a mont and decided to stay and see what would happen, rather than risk antagonizing Dao on the spot.
"It's settled," Dao didn't care whether Lin Shen was truly willing, he was quite pleased, "Co on, start by moving that material into the furnace."
Dao pointed to the red-colored materials of the Vajra Bull beside him and then pointed to the slting port of the furnace.
The furnace was highly functional, capable of both lting tals and heating up tals for forging.
Dao wanted him to move the materials into the furnace first, which ant lting and refining them to extract the tal embryo. Only then could the materials be forged, and finally, a sword could be made.
Lin Shen had originally thought that the materials forged by the red tal ox would only be roughly refined and not too heavy.
However, when he reached out to grab a piece of material that Dao had cut open, he put in so effort but couldn't lift it up.
"How can it be so heavy?" Lin Shen wondered in surprise, rushing to exert more strength. Only then was he able to lift the half-cut material, sowhat laboriously making his way to the furnace to toss it in.
Although he didn't use the Super Base Form, the weight was still shocking enough. Lin Shen's own strength was considerable, much stronger than the average Ascender, and if he found it difficult, this revealed just how heavy the material was.
"Not using a skill and yet able to move it, for an Ascender to have such strength is indeed a bit impressive. No wonder Tianshu has appointed you as the Dean; it seems not without reason," even Dao seed slightly surprised by Lin Shen's formidable strength.
"Strong muscles, great endurance, these are pretty much the only advantages I have," said Lin Shen.
"With these two advantages, a man is sure to lead a comfortable life. Try this hamr and see if you can lift it up, let see just how strong you are," suggested Dao, pointing to a large hamr by the side.
Lin Shen approached the hamr and saw that its material was the sa as the blades', with the hamrhead being forged from Blood Vein tal.
However, the mass of the hamr should be less than that of the blades.
Because those blades were forged entirely from Blood Vein tal, even the handles were made of the sa material.
This hamr, on the other hand, had only its head made of Blood Vein tal, with the handle being wooden, creating a top-heavy balance more suitable for swinging and hamring.
Lin Shen gripped the handle of the hamr, finding the wooden texture extrely comfortable to hold, not knowing what kind of wood it was. It had been used for so long that it was already polished smooth with use.
The wooden handle indeed felt light, but when Lin Shen tried to lift the hamr, it felt significantly heavier, more so than the materials he had handled before.
The hamrhead, although similar in size, was many tis heavier than the materials.
Lin Shen suddenly thought he might have been too naive; the blades were probably heavier than the hamr, and at the Base Mutation level, he feared he might not even be able to lift them, let alone wield them against enemies.
Although he barely managed to lift the hamrhead, swinging it was another matter entirely—he really couldn't handle it.
"Use your skill, try and see if you can swing it," Dao took out a glowing golden-red piece of tal from the furnace and placed it on the workbench, indicating for Lin Shen to strike it with the hamr.
Lin Shen, unable to swing it on his own, had to activate the Super Base Form. Then he swung the hamr and smashed it down on the tal block, sending dark red slag flying in all directions.
"Not bad, give it a few more hits; let's see if your endurance is as strong as you claim," Dao said with a smile.
Lin Shen swung the hamr several more tis, and since Dao didn't say stop, he kept on swinging.
The hamr was heavy, but it was still manageable under the Super Base Form. Additionally, the power from the Super Base Pattern's extraction of the World's Force supplented the effort, and as long as he didn't swing too quickly, he could continue indefinitely.
At first, Dao did not pay much attention when Lin Shen swung the hamr a few tis. But after Lin Shen had swung it over a dozen tis, severely deforming the tal block, Dao started to look on with a trace of astonishnt, "That endurance is actually quite sothing."
