Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
However, as he observed Ye Chen’s back, a sense of suspicion lingered within him.
He was aware that Ye Chen possessed imnse strength, yet whether he could truly lift the True God hamr remained uncertain.
After all, he had spent many years at the Divine Fire Academy and had encountered countless geniuses. Among these individuals, there were many who exhibited extraordinary strength.
Nevertheless, even among these remarkable talents, none had managed to raise the True God hamr while they were Creation realm cultivators.
In fact, there were very few who had even managed to do so as Sealed Gate realm experts.
Old Wu was one of the most seasoned instructors at the Divine Fire Academy, so Ooe could only imagine the number of prodigious geniuses he had encountered over the years.
Soon, Ye Chen arrived before the True God hamr. He grasped the handle of the hamr with both hands and exerted a portion of his strength. Imdiately, he frowned.
This hamr was heavier than he had anticipated!
Noticing Ye Chen’s expression, Old Wu shook his head with a smirk and remarked, “Do you comprehend how heavy it is now? Have you ever heard the saying, ‘Always heed the words of your elders…'”
However, before Old Wu could complete his sentence, Ye Chen let out a low growl and applied strength with both hands. He lifted the True God hamr and began to swing it with reckless abandon in the forging workshop.
The enormous hamr, which had an astonishing weight, seed to have been transford into an ordinary wooden stick in Ye Chen’s hands.
The hamr spun in Ye Chen’s grasp, creating gusts of wind that sent various items in the workshop flying to the side.
As for Old Wu? He stood there, utterly astonished.
He was so taken aback that he could not utter a word.
His mouth, hidden beneath his white beard, hung open in disbelief.
If Ye Chen had simply lifted the hamr, Old Wu might have been able to accept it reluctantly, but this kid was swinging it around wildly.
This left Old Wu questioning whether his eyes were deceiving him, and his mind was nearly frozen in shock.
Ye Chen finally set down the giant hamr and smiled. “Old Wu, am I considered qualified now?”
Old Wu regained his senses upon hearing Ye Chen’s voice. He gazed at the giant hamr, his eyes shining with excitent. He nodded repeatedly. “You have passed! You could not be more qualified!”
The primary reason he had devised three tests in the workshop was to discover an heir with exceptional qualifications.
Although he had instructed many talented disciples at the Divine Fire Academy, and had taken in so true disciples with comndable aptitude, none had ever managed to grasp the essence of his forging technique.
Ye Chen, however, had demonstrated astonishing talent in both endurance and strength. Now, Old Wu looked at Ye Chen as if he were gazing upon a treasure. His excitent was palpable. How could he not be thrilled?
“Old Wu, what do we do next?” Ye Chen inquired awkwardly.
“Young man, do you know what else is most crucial in forging besides patience and strength?” Old Wu asked with a smile.
“Comprehension?” Ye Chen pondered for a mont before responding.
After all, Forging Divine Lord had imparted this knowledge to him previously.
Old Wu chuckled and shook his head. “Only with a sufficiently powerful soul can one exert effective control over the materials!”
“While comprehension is indeed important, one cannot grasp the essence of forging without the talent in one’s soul!”
“The third stage is a test of the soul!”
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen smiled in a relaxed manner. He possessed the ntal Demon Body.
Though his strength was already extraordinary, Ye Chen’s divine soul was now the most remarkable aspect of his abilities.
When Old Wu observed Ye Chen’s relaxed deanor, he snorted dismissively. “Young man, do not beco overly pleased with yourself. Your strength is indeed exceptional. However, the reason I placed the soul as the third test is that it is the most difficult stage. Do not be careless. Follow .”
As he spoke, Ye Chen followed Old Wu down a long and narrow passageway.
Even without entering the tunnel, Ye Chen could distinctly sense a powerful soul power pressure emanating from it through his ntal Demon Body.
“Kid, the final round requires you to traverse this tunnel within an hour,” Old Wu stated indifferently. “Do not underestimate the fact that this tunnel is only ten ters long. What it contains is beyond your imagination!”
“This ti, you must heed my advice. Do not be arrogant and proceed hastily. If you rush through too quickly, your divine soul may not be able to withstand the pressure and could even suffer serious injury. Do you understand?”
“I understand,” Ye Chen replied with a smile.
Monts later, lightning crackled around his body. He executed the Hundred Steps Chasing Lightning technique and surged toward the tunnel at an astonishing speed.
It was not that he disregarded Old Wu’s advice; rather, he wished to minimize the ti spent on forging. He needed to make his way to the Southern Region as swiftly as possible.
Perhaps Chen Zhifan, the mysterious girl, and the masters of the Kunlun Mountains awaited him there.
Old Wu’s expression shifted drastically upon witnessing this. “Return quickly!”
As he spoke, his late-stage Seal Gate realm aura erupted with intensity. He was prepared to use all of his strength to save Ye Chen.
From his perspective, with Ye Chen’s speed, he would have to endure the full brunt of the tunnel’s soul power pressure!
Even a Sealed Gate realm expert would sustain severe injuries under such circumstances!
However, the next mont, Ye Chen’s calm voice erged from the other side of the tunnel. “Old Wu, do not worry. I am fine. I simply hurried a little.”
What was happening?
This ti, Old Wu’s shock surpassed that of when he witnessed Ye Chen wield the True God hamr.
In fact, his entire body went rigid, and his eyes appeared vacant as he stared ahead.
How was Ye Chen unscathed?
Old Wu’s mind was in turmoil.
He had assud Ye Chen’s physical fitness and strength were already remarkable enough. He had not held high expectations for his soul, expecting him to barely pass. After all, the talent for soul power was typically more challenging to attain than strength and physical fitness.
However, Ye Chen had completely upended his understanding.
Was he even human?
Perhaps, throughout the entire history of the Lingwu Continent, there would be no other genius as extraordinary as Ye Chen.
Seeing Old Wu in a daze, Ye Chen’s figure flickered again, disregarding the daunting soul power pressure in the tunnel as he returned to Old Wu’s side and patted him on the shoulder. “Old Wu? Are you alright?”
At that mont, Old Wu suddenly snapped back to reality. He grasped Ye Chen’s hand tightly. “Tell , am I dreaming?”
Ye Chen could only smile wryly. “You are not dreaming. Now, can you assist
in forging?”
Old Wu looked at Ye Chen with kindness and smiled. “Of course. Did you bring the materials? Even if you did not, I can still forge for you. However, I do have one condition that I hope you will agree to.”
