Hey I'm finally back and I'm feeling lucky that i decide to take a break in writing for a week because my job suddenly become extra busy this week 😂😭
well please enjoy 😁
--------------------
within a forge room the sound of metal being forged was ringing in a rhythmic way.
*Clang *Clang *Clang
the one forging was a tall young man, even though his body seems to be mature his childish face shows that his age is still very young .
it was Lin Tian who was forging in one of the public forge room he rented in Gengxin City.
6 months have already passed since he received the ancient inheritance and now he is already 10 years old.
for the past six month Lin Tian has spend a lot of time in the forge trying to implement the inscription knowledge he recieved and even developed more from it.
Now Lin Tian was able to create Soul Guidance weapon of grade 3 after so much trial and error, he also able to forge metal to a thousand refinement level.
if he were to be graded Lin Tian should be considered as a 4th grade Balcksmith now and currently Lin Tian is trying to forge a spirit refinement Metal which is the requirement to be a 5th grade Blacksmith.
Lin Tian spirit level is currently at lvl 30 which is considered to be the bare minimum limit to be able to forge a spirit refinement metal, but he was able to do this step because of his unique cultivation technique, strong body and strong Spiritual Power.
after being repeatedly forged the metal in front of Lin Tian finally have a big reaction, from his spiritual sense Lin Tian can feel that something is going to be born from the metal.
without any hesitation he keep forging while using his Spirit power to feed the metal through his hammer and keeping his Spiritual sense open feeling the changes.
after a while Lin Tian finally stop his hammer, he can now feel that the metal in front of him is not a simple metal anymore but something alive with its own intelligence.
seeing the metal Lin tian smiled widely, "Now everthing is ready, with this i will have the chance to implement the first step of my long term plan."
feeling tired from overworking his mind and body Lin Tian directly leave the forge while putting his newly forget metal ingots into his storage.
--------------------
The next day.
wearing a semi formal clothes Lin Tian is currently standing in front of the Blacksmith association building, when he walked to the receptionist table the receptionist staff directly reacted.
"Mr Lin Tian please follow me, the President have been waiting for your arrival."
Lin Tian nodded. "Lead the way."
over the past 6 month Lin Tian has already have a bit of fame in the Gengxin city as a successful businessman and a rich tycoon.
everytime he went to the monthly Blacksmith association Auction Lin Tian always spend hundreds of thousand to millions of gold coins which is one of the source of his fame while the other reason is his restaurant.
climbing to the highest floor finally Lin Tian arrived at the Association President room, The room itself is spacious with various weapon and armor displayed on each side of the walls.
in the middle of the room an old man was sitting comfortably on the sofa while drinking tea, he is Luo Gao the current president of the Blacksmith association and the main target of Lin Tian's plan today.
the man is old and fat wirh the height of 1.6 meters. even though he seems like a gentle neighborhood grandpa Lin Tian knows better to not underestimate this sly old man, being the head of such a big association definitely need a good head for scheming to run it.
"It's good to see you again Old man Gao."
"you're finally here, so what are you going to request for today Brat and don't ask me for the soft armor anymore i won't sell it no matter the price."
this isn't the first time Lin Tian has met with Luo Gao, being the owner of a famous restaurant and a rich person make Lin Tian able to meet and befriend a lot of famous people in the city easily.
Lin Tian also has also requested some item to be made by Luo Gao a few times, mostly for him and his bodyguards. well he also try to buy the Soft Armor from Luo Gao but he never succeeded.
"Old man today I'm going to make an offer that you definitely can't refuse."
while saying this Lin Tian pull out a sword from his storage, the sword is 1 meter long with grey color and double edge. overall it seems to be a normal weapon made of steel but Luo Gao being a divine blacksmith didn't insult this sword but analyze the sword closely.
"Nice craftmanship based on the metal it is only made of a high grade pure steel but the one who created this is at the level of grandmaster smith or even scholar smith."
"As expected of a Divine Smith. old man you can actually analyze so far just from seeing it, but this is not the surprise that i wanted to show."
walking to the side of the room Lin Tian pick up a shield that was being hanged in the room, this shield is made of Heavy Deep silver metal the metal famous for its defensive power, density and heavy weight.
without any hesitation Lin Tian take his sword, pour soul power into it and slash at the shield. Luo Gao didn't say anything and just watch this process because he know even though the sword is a good one it's material grade is too low and the sword will definitely break when clashed against the shield.
but what happen make him completely jaw slacked, the shield was split apart and so easily at that. he can see from the smooth cut on the shield that the sword was able to cut the shield easily as if a knife cutting a soft butter.
Lin Tian just calmly sheathed his sword, even though it's only made of normal steel the inscription he used already made this sword a 3rd grade Soul Guidance weapon.
Luo Gao instantly take the sword from Lin Tian's hand and start to analyze it with full concentration. Lin Tian seeing this just sit comfortably on the sofa while waiting, the old blacksmith has already bite the bait he set now.
after a while Luo Gao let out a sigh, "I don't understand the sword craftmanship and material is nothing really special, yet somehow it was able to cut a shield made of precious metal so easily."
"Old Gao this is one of the two thing i wanted to show you and before i continue you can take a look at this."
Lin Tian took out 3 ingots of metal, the ingots are made from of the same precious metal Tungsten steel. the difference of the 3 ingots lies on the refinement level , the first one is hundred refinement, the second thousand refinement and the lest one is the spiritual refinement.
Seeing the 3 ingots Luo Gao directly focused on the second and third ingots. he can see the first ingots being the same level as the metal he normally refined for his craft while the second and third ingots was far above the first metal.
especially the third one he can even feel the metal being alive but this made him confused and surpirse, because how is it possible for a metal to be alive.
finally Luo Gao look at Lin Tian asking for his explanation. Lin Tian seeing him like this smiled and finally said.
"Now old man I'll give you an offer that you will definitely accept."
