Above all spirits

Chapter 21 The Recognition of the Creation Divine Iron

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

……

"Ding!"

"Ding!"

With each swing of the hammer, each strike, and each impact of the hammer against the iron block, Gu Yun felt a mysterious force washing over his entire body from the outside in.

From its initial gentle and mild nature to its current shocking and intense intensity.

The innate energy trembled.

The power of the Shadow Fiend almost collapsed.

It was as if each strike was forging not the iron block, but the person himself.

After repeated hammering, Gu Yun became increasingly certain that what was special was not his innate talent, his Shadow Demon power, or the hammer he was gripping tightly, but the iron block in front of him.

A piece of iron that the man described as an ordinary piece of iron.

but.

It's now.

What's so ordinary about it?

At the beginning, with each hammer blow from Gu Yun, a faint red hammer mark would appear around the iron block.

At the same time, a warm current flowed into my hands.

At the time, Gu Yun, filled with doubt, didn't think much about it. He only knew that he couldn't stop, after all, this was his last chance.

but.

Until now.

The heat was washing over me like waves.

The once unremarkable, silvery-black iron block now appears as if it has been forged a thousand times, emitting a dazzling crimson light.

It also seemed to be unwilling to accept defeat.

To declare one's extraordinary nature.

It doesn't need anyone to refine it.

It is what truly shapes and refines others!

Hard work!

Nature is in control!

The indoor temperature rises because of it.

The dark corners disappeared because of it.

Gu Yun's mind and body were also ignited by it.

He couldn't understand why such a magical iron block would be found in the most inconspicuous craftsman's shop.

He didn't even consider what he would have to give in the future after accepting this gift.

One's own body? Lifespan? Or soul?

Oh, his soul no longer belongs to him alone; he has long since sold it to the devil.

He is too weak.

They are so weak that they don't even have the right to think about what the consequences would be if they took two more steps.

All he knew was that this was an opportunity for transformation.

This is a destiny that he may never be able to replicate, even as he journeys through life and reaches his end.

He needs more power.

He can't give up.

Although he kept boasting to Werner that destiny was on his side.

But he knew that if he didn't fight or compete, fate couldn't help him.

but.

Everything has its limits.

Humans are no exception.

The same goes for demons.

"Ding!"

The crisp sound echoed through the craft shop.

It was as if it were announcing the end.

His hand lost its strength.

Even with the combined assistance of his innate energy and the power of the Shadow Demon, he couldn't lift it even a little bit.

Gu Yun gritted her teeth, her whole body trembling.

But his hands felt as if he were lifting a mountain.

Not moving.

No.

Gu Yun watched as the light from the crimson iron block shrank, and cried out in his heart.

No!

what else?

What else can I do to help?

soul?

And a soul!

Demons can control their clones to descend to the mortal realm by attaching their consciousness to the soul matter.

Isn't this the method I'm also learning to master?

What would happen if I attached my consciousness to my soul and controlled my hand?

Because it seems that whatever method you use to strike, that's what the counter-shock will temper. If you add soul essence, will your soul be unable to withstand it?

Werner said that the soul is a very fragile form, which is why the gamma dimension eliminates it.

Damn!

What am I thinking?!

My soul is a golden soul capable of ignoring the rules of the gamma dimension, so why should I back down because of its rules?

It says it's fragile?

Is it fragile?

"Ding!"

The crisp sound of striking echoed once more.

Refuting all baseless claims with facts!

The innate energy that dissipates can be regenerated.

The power of the Shadow Fiend can be reassembled after it dissipates.

The soul might not be able to.

However, Gu Yun's golden soul withstood the backlash and underwent a tempering of its soul.

Overjoyed, he felt his spirits soar once more.

He closed his eyes, immersing himself completely in the soul matter.

"Ding!"

"Ding!"

"Ding!"

The crisp, rhythmic sound of hammers striking iron blocks began to echo throughout the craftsman's shop.

Endless life.

And in these subtle changes...

The man slowly opened his eyes, his sleepiness gone.

He turned around in disbelief to look at Gu Yun's frail figure.

Sweat may have already soaked his clothes, but his will was never extinguished.

......

"Boom--!"

The hammer had just struck.

A cool sensation swept over Gu Yun's entire body.

Like a sudden enlightenment, like sweet dew sprinkling on the heart.

It took away all his fatigue and weakness.

And everything about him seemed to be elevated at that moment.

This not only eliminated the hidden danger of insufficient foundation.

Furthermore, it forged the innate energy and the power of the Shadow Demon into some unknown force.

Feel the surging, unknown power within my body.

He knew he had broken through a certain bottleneck.

He opened his eyes, a hint of surprise flashing in them.

At this moment, he was completely transformed.

"The Divine Iron of Creation, which forges all things and can transform freely, truly lives up to its name. Congratulations on gaining its approval and achieving a stage of transformation. I'm a little curious, how did you do it?"

Werner: Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap, holy crap, divine iron!

A clear voice came from behind.

Ignoring the shocked Werner, Gu Yun turned around and saw the man standing behind him with an appreciative expression on his face.

"Please enlighten me, senior. I simply don't want to miss this opportunity."

Gu Yun clasped his hands in a fist and bowed again, speaking frankly.

The man nodded, seemingly having a preliminary approval of Gu Yun's character.

"The Creation Iron has a spirit. Only when you use your physical strength and all your might to hammer it without using any powers can you be considered to have reached the trial threshold it recognizes."

"Pure physical strength actually refers to all forms of power that can be attached to the physical body. For example, the racial innate power of demons, gods, and Asuras, as well as the derived energy of innate, super-innate, and Dao-returning life positions are the most common physical strengths. Others include battle energy and killing intent."

"In short, everyone's situation is different. Just use your full strength. The characteristic of the Creation Divine Iron is that it will become stronger when it encounters strength. Each counterattack will exceed half of your first full strength."

"To gain its approval, you need to withstand the superposition of 81 counter-forces, which is nearly four times the counter-force of your first full-force attack."

"So I'm curious, how did you do it? I can't do it, but I can assure you that even a God-King level expert like Ji Tian couldn't do it."

"It can be said that since she left, no one in the world has been able to gain the approval of the Creation Iron until you appeared today."

Gu Yun was taken aback.

I'm actually four times stronger than I was just a few hours ago?!
