AST 1775 - Forging, Qing Shui’s Current Strength

It took some time to melt the Vampiric Divine Gold. Then, the molten Vampiric Divine Gold was poured directly on the Golden Battle Halberd.

At Qing Shui's current level, he didn’t need special forging platform anymore, he could directly perform it instead.

The Golden Battle Halberd floated in front of Qing Shui. Swinging the violet False God-grade hammer, he began using Thousand Hammering Technique to forge the Golden Battle Halberd.

The hammering speed was very fast yet not frantic. It was very rhythmic, enabling people to see it vividly with a pressuring beat.

Nine Yang Golden Body, Qi of the Ancient Strengthening Technique, combined with the Nature Energy and indescribable Tenacious Strength, Qing Shui seemed to be obsessed and on fire. He was uninterrupted by the surroundings, actually he seemed to be possessed by the God of Smith.

Qing Shui knew that he was in a trance, but he had yet to achieve the State of Nothingness. Though he wanted to, the State of Nothingness required some luck.

In fact, Qing Shui’s current condition was considered as Semi Conscious state. He was able to achieve twice the results using half the effort now, in forging as well as refinement. However, it was still far from the actual State of Nothingness.

Time passed by gradually, the violet liquid on the Golden Battle Halberd was hammered and merged into Golden Battle Halberd bit by bit. The thick violet layer covering the Golden Battle Halberd was slowly replaced by the sparkling golden color.

Bang!

A cloud of shiny golden color exploded and dispersed like a flashing golden halo to the surroundings and it brightened up the entire world instantly.

Succeeded, a joyful smile crept on Qing Shui’s face. Though the process didn't enter his desired realm, it went doubtlessly smooth. Qing Shui was still satisfied that it went well. Looking at the glittering gold and now stronger Golden Battle Halberd, Qing Shui was confused. Under normal circumstances, Qing Shui had yet to achieve the level to forge a Divine Artifact like the Golden Battle Halberd.

Needless to say to strengthen the power of the Golden Battle Halberd.

“Never mind, forget about it, let's see how strong is the Golden Battle Halberd now!” Qing Shui smiled.

Golden Battle Halberd! Double the strength!

Invincible destructive power: able to penetrate very tough defense and armor within its limits, 9 times increase in the existing ability of penetration.

This was comprehensive 10,000 Yang strength could theoretically penetrate 90,000 Yang defense and armor.

Absolute penetration: 1% absolute penetration rate to pierce through everything and neglect anything.

Qing Shui felt indifferent to see the attribute because the absolute penetration rate was apparently too low. Qing Shui had never experienced it despite its 1% occurrence. It was based on strength, the absolute penetration would not occur if the discrepancy was too great. Over the battles all of these years, penetration effect happened many times. Yet, he was unsure for the absolute penetration and did not place too much hope on this magical probability.

Three times increase in absolute penetration rate to 3% while performing Nine Stances of Ancient Divine Battle Technique.

This sounded as unreliable as before to Qing Shui……

Hardness: One of the toughest, hardest and most Yang weapons in the world. 90% decrease in the probability of being damaged even under disastrous destructive force.

Golden God: Golden Battle God’s powerful ability, 4 times increase in the power of Battle God Halo, passive skill, zero consumption.

Qing Shui smirked looking at this. As the king of the Battle Gods, the Golden Battle God had a strong physique and a great justice power. The Battle God Halo could bring improvements in all aspects. Now, he could finally show the greatness of the Battle God Halo.

Bloodthirst: absorbs part of the opponent’s endurance and Origin Qi according to the damaging power in every attack.

This should be the ability of the Vampiric Divine Gold, yet, it was too vague. Although the exact consumption was not stated, it was alright as long as it existed. Moreover, more importantly, the power of the Golden Battle Halberd had increased now.

Divine Artifact and Divine Weapon, upgrade enabled!

Qing Shui understood why he could now successfully forge the Divine Artifact, the Golden Battle Halberd. It must be largely related to its upgradeability.

Qing Shui knew that he only awakened a part of the Golden Battle Halberd’s own abilities. He didn’t forge it, he only activated some of its existing abilities.

This Bloodthirst was supposed to be the Vampiric Divine Gold’s ability.

Nevertheless, it was a joyful thing that Bloodthirst ability could come in handy in a prolonged war. It could engulf the opponent’s endurance and Origin Qi, hence it could indirectly increase the opponent’s consumption and create a panic situation.

At present, Qing Shui achieved 130,000 Dao Force in strength. It would be a terrific 700,000 Dao Force to use the Paragon Strike. Because of the Divine Wood Essence, Qing Shui achieved 260,000 Dao Force in his wood attribute abilities. The power of Primordial Flames was about the same too.

The trip to Sacred Ocean Sound Cave made Qing Shui’s defense even more stunning, the Foolish Loyalty of the Hell Nightmare Beast enhanced his defense by four times. Qing Shui’s own defensive power was daunting enough, currently, he could effortlessly withstand his own Paragon Strike.

It was a given to be attacked in a great war. Nothing would happen when the opponents attempted an attack, whereas one own strike could take their life, this was indeed an advantage.

This forging was considered very successful, Qing Shui was rather satisfied.

Warming up was done after he finished forging. It was almost a month. Since the remaining time was very long, Qing Shui decided to refine the Sacred Mudra Flower for Luo Qingcheng.

There was only one Sacred Mudra Flower, still, he was out of choice. He would return to the Sacred Ocean Sound Cave to look for small Sacred Mudra Flower and transplanted it to the Realm of Violet Jade Immortal when the opportunity arose.

It was simple to refine the Sacred Mudra Flower. The main problem was to match the Life and Death Needles and irradiated the rebirth ability in Luo Qingcheng’s body. Then, it would force out the destructive energy of the Immortal Vanquishing Arrow.

Sacred Mudra Flower Refinement aimed to enhance the strength and purity of its energy, it was similar to the upgrade of the Vampiric Divine Gold.

He spent around three days to finish it. This Sacred Mudra Flower was mature and highly graded, thus, Qing Shui did not waste too much time on it.

……

……

The next day, Qing Shui offered to treat Luo Qingcheng’s injuries after breakfast.

“Can we do it today?” asked Luo Qingcheng joyfully.

“Sure, you would recover immediately and even make a massive advancement. This Sacred Mudra Flower is not only made for healing injuries,” Qing Shui said with a smile.

“Thank you, wonderful, I thought I have to leave everyone forever after these few months,” Luo Qingcheng sounded like she just survived a disaster.

“How come, I said I won’t let anything happen to you. You promised me before to be my woman when you recover,” Qing Shui smiled and looked at Luo Qingcheng.
