Chapter Thirty-One: Top-Grade Special Effects

ral as Shirayuki Academy, the qualifications should be very high. 。As for why the Blood God Legion was here, Moren Douluo didn't say. These things need Tang Wulin to find out himself. 。Last night's b...Please collect, recommend votes.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At first glance, this pair of thousand-forged silver hammers appears unremarkable, dull and gray, like any ordinary blacksmith's hammer. But upon closer inspection, one discovers a network of rippling dark patterns covering every inch of the hammer head and handle. These patterns seem to contain an inexhaustible power within them.

A spiral pattern extends down the handle, culminating in a spherical bottom that tapers to a sharp point.

It took three whole years, painstakingly forging it piece by piece. The process of forging it felt incredibly connected, accelerating the progress tenfold. Even then, it still took this long to finally be considered truly complete.

"Give it a try, and see what its thousand forging effect is like." Mang said to Tang Wulin, in this master blacksmith's eyes, there was even a glimmer of expectation.

"Hmm." Tang Wulin nodded, his hands gripping the two thousand-forged silver hammers each.

After forging, a series of measurements have been conducted. The left hammer weighs 152 kilograms and the right hammer weighs 166 kilograms. Don't be fooled by the size of these hammers, their weight can definitely be described as astonishing.

Tang Wulin gripped the spiraled hammer handle, and instantly felt his soul power surge within him. In that moment, he connected with the pair of heavy hammers.

Although Tang Wulin's strength had improved, he was still not strong enough to forge this pair of hammers with his own power alone. He was only nine years old, and even his divine power had its limits.

But when that feeling of kinship came over him, the pair of hammers felt noticeably lighter. With his soul power infused into them, he was finally able to lift them steadily.

A piece of prepped metal rose from the forging furnace. Tang Wulin's eyes narrowed, instantly becoming focused. He habitually tapped the metal with his left hand hammer.

"Ding, ding, ding!" three crisp sounds rang out.

Tang Wulin froze, while Meng is pupils shrank instantly.

"Try again." Mang said, almost eagerly.

Tang Wulin once again tapped lightly with his left hand hammer.

"Ding, ding, ding" still came the three crisp sounds. Yet, he had clearly only tapped the metal once with his left hammer.

"Heavy blow!" Mang roared in a deep voice.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Tang Wulin's right fist almost swept up in a whirlwind, heavily smashing onto the piece of metal.

"Ding, ding, ding!" The three sharp sounds almost rose instantly. This time because of the large amplitude, Tang Wulin and Mang both clearly saw that in the instant when the hammer was smashed down, two afterimages were actually pulled out behind the thousand-forged silver hammer, and the two booming sounds behind it were caused by them.

"This is..." Tang Wulin looked at Meng beside him with a bewildered expression.

Mang was stunned and speechless, "Stacked hammer effect."

"Teacher, what is a hammer"

"Looking at him, his eyes became strange. "You, you're simply a monster! Even I have never forged a hammer with the stacking hammer effect."

After a few quick breaths to calm his racing heart, Meng was still in disbelief. Although he had vaguely sensed that Tang Wulin’s first thousand forging might have some impressive effects, he never expected them to be this extraordinary.

The reason why a blacksmith's first thousand-forged piece needs to undergo a blood ritual is mainly because the first piece often exhibits good special effects. The blood ritual connects the metal with the blacksmith's bloodline, pushing the special effects to the extreme. Therefore, the vast majority of blacksmiths' first thousand-forged pieces are their own forging hammers, and they accompany them for life.

Tang Wulin was a clever child, and he immediately understood. It turned out that when the teacher took out the piece of silver, he had already prepared to give it to him. He wasn't sure how valuable silver was, but it was definitely worth a lot. Especially such a large, complete piece of refined silver.

Máng continued, "Within the Thousand Forging Special Effects, there are some particularly exceptional ones. But even these exceptional effects can only be fully realized in a suitable form. As I mentioned before, Thousand Forged metal is at its best during its first shaping. Once reshaped into other forms, it inevitably damages the internal structure, thereby affecting its quality. Therefore, a first-time shaped Thousand Forged product with a suitable top-tier special effect becomes extremely rare."

Tang Wulin had already understood his teacher's meaning. "You mean, the stacking effect of my Silver Hammer is an exceptional effect And it's especially suitable for a Silver Hammer"

"Māo nodded, smiling. "I'm a little jealous of you. Top-notch special effects, only you can use them after the blood sacrifice."

“What is called hammering is that after one hammer blow, the metal itself will produce a secondary or even tertiary hammer effect through its own resonance. This is your triple hammering, which is also the strongest hammering. Simply put, when you refine metals with hundreds of hammers, at least three times hammering can save you half the time. The power of two hammer blows is 70% and 50% of your initial strength, respectively. Once you master the effect of hammering, then in your future forging, no matter what you forge, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort.”

Tang Wulin said, "How controllable is the hammer's special effect"

"It's normally hard to control," Mang said, "but since you've blood-sacrificed this thousand-forged silver hammer and it's now connected to your bloodline, its greatest feature is that it becomes one with you. Controlling it naturally becomes much easier."

Blood sacrifice allows for a mystical bloodline connection between a person and metal. This metal can only be forged by themselves, so in a way, blood sacrifice forging is almost exclusive to blacksmiths. Even if you forge metal for someone else and perform a blood sacrifice on it, the other party must also possess the ability to forge the finished product.

Therefore, blood sacrifice is not widely used in the forging world. Forgers themselves are not accustomed to using this method of blood sacrifice.

Tang Wulin's bad luck in both his Martial Soul and Soul Spirit seems to have been made up for in forging. The Thousand Forging Heavy Silver Hammer with the Stacked Hammering Thousand Forging effect will undoubtedly make his path as a blacksmith smoother in the future.

"You need to practice hard and control the layered hammer as soon as possible," Mang said in a deep voice. "Also, try not to use this pair of forging hammers in front of others. The world of blacksmiths is also fiercely competitive. Such an excellent blood sacrifice forging hammer should not be revealed easily before your ability is sufficient to protect yourself, understand"

Tang Wulin nodded vaguely. He only knew that the teacher did this for his own good.

"Here, this is for you." Mang raised his hand, and in his palm appeared two metal rings. These rings too looked grayish and nondescript, forged from the same thousand-tempered silver.rring and practicing combat. 。This was the largest area Tang Wulin had seen in this shelter, about 200 meters in diameter and about 30 meters high. The dome had a perfect arc, obviously man-made. 。To...
