Chapter 2152 Forging Rules
Chapter 2152: Forging Rules Chapter 2152: Forging Rules Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Ge Qing immediately smiled with joy. She took out a jade slip from her bosom and threw it to Ye Chen. “Ye Chen, all of the family’s information is recorded in this jade slip. If you need any resources to go to the Southern Region, just use my token to ask the academy’s instructors to arrange it for you. “However, you must be careful and prioritize your own safety. You have my thanks in advance.” As Ge Qing finished his sentence, his expression turned serious. He certainly did not want his students to encounter any accidents because of him. Ye Chen smiled. “You are welcome, Dean Ge. I am the one who wants to thank you for informing me about this. If that inheritor is indeed my friend, I will owe you a huge favor.” Ge Qing laughed and said, “Alright, we do not have to be so polite anymore. Go on, do not worry. I was careless before. I will be in the academy this time, and I will take care of your friends for you.” “Thank you very much,” said Ye Chen gratefully. With that, he walked out of the dean’s office. After leaving the tower, Ye Chen first found a forging workshop in the Divine Fire Academy. According to the instructions of the Demon Emperor, the Blood Demon Sword needed to be reconstructed. As soon as Ye Chen entered the forging workshop, he saw a short but muscular old man with short hair and a big white beard. He was bare-chested and wore only an apron. The old man was sitting at the door, snoring. Ye Chen could not help but laugh. He had heard that this forging workshop was managed by the most respected instructor in the academy. However, although this old man looked unrestrained, his cultivation level had indeed reached the late stage of the Sealed Gate realm! Moreover, Ye Chen, who possessed the Immortal Divine Body and Demon Body, could easily sense the terrifying power contained in this old man’s body. The old man seemed to have sensed Ye Chen’s arrival. He slowly opened his eyes and stretched. “Little fellow, you have come to see me. Is there something you need?” “I wish to forge something,” Ye Chen said with a smile. “Oh?” The old man waved at Ye Chen. “You do not have to address me as an instructor here. Just call me Old Wu. Follow me in.” After saying that, he turned around and walked into the forging workshop. Ye Chen followed him into the workshop. As soon as he entered, he felt a very hot aura blowing against his face. A hint of surprise flashed across Ye Chen’s eyes. This level of temperature was terrifying! Even an ordinary Star Aperture realm expert would likely find it very difficult to withstand the temperature here, right? However, with Ye Chen’s physique, this was not a big deal. Moreover, he had the Mystic Flame. Even if the temperature increased tenfold, Ye Chen could still endure it. Old Wu glanced at Ye Chen. A glint flashed in his eyes, and he smiled. “Kid, your physique is not bad. You have passed the first round.” “Ah?” Ye Chen was stunned. “Old Wu, what do you mean?” “Do you not know the rules of my workshop?” Old Wu frowned at Ye Chen. “What rules?” Ye Chen asked curiously. “Do not tell me that this workshop does not use academy points?” Old Wu shook his head. “My workshop never accepts points. Even if that old geezer Ge Qing came himself, he would still have to follow my rules. First, you must be able to withstand the temperature in this workshop!” After saying that, he continued to walk into the workshop. Ye Chen naturally followed closely behind. He knew that the Divine Fire Academy was full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons. This old man was definitely one of them. Soon, Old Wu came to a small room. Inside, there were three kinds of hammers, ranging from big to small. Old Wu pointed at the three hammers and said, “This old man will only forge three types of weapons. Spacetime artifacts, divine artifacts, and True God artifacts. To forge different weapons, you need to be able to lift and swing hammers of different weights. This is the content of the second stage!” Ye Chen nodded and immediately looked at the largest hammer. He naturally hoped that the Blood Demon Sword would become the strongest! Old Wu looked at Ye Chen’s expression and could not help but feel helpless. He smiled and said, “Kid, I know you are that Ye Chen. You are indeed very strong, but I advise you not to bite off more than you can chew.” “The weight of this hammer is unimaginable!” “Do not think that you are omnipotent just because you have some strength. It is a good thing to have confidence. Blind confidence is foolish!” “Moreover, I must remind you that you are only qualified to forge with me once a year!” “If you fail this time, I will not accept any more requests from you for a year. Do you understand?” After Old Wu finished speaking, he looked at Ye Chen smugly. Ye Chen’s aptitude was indeed very good, and he also thought highly of Ye Chen. However, he still felt that Ye Chen’s performance was a little arrogant. He wanted to use this opportunity to teach Ye Chen a lesson. Unexpectedly, after Ye Chen heard Old Wu’s words, he still said firmly, “Thank you for your reminder, Old Wu. I understand. However, I still choose this True God hammer!” “What?” Old Wu glared at Ye Chen angrily. Why did this young man not listen to his advice? However, even he did not realize that there was a hint of admiration hidden in the depths of his eyes. Although choosing a lighter hammer was indeed a more reasonable and advantageous choice, there were always people in this world who knew the difficulty and still wanted to challenge their limits. A person who knew that it was unreasonable, but still wanted to continue being arrogant… Old Wu actually admired this kind of person! That was because he had such a personality when he was young. However, Old Wu still snorted at Ye Chen. “Hmph, kid. Do not blame me for not warning you.” Ye Chen took a deep breath and stared at the True God hammer. The pressure emitted by that True God artifact was something that even he could not casually deal with. Immediately, Ye Chen shouted. The Divine Demon Reincarnation Technique, the Burning Blood Technique, and other abilities, were all unleashed. A powerful aura rose from Ye Chen’s body! Ye Chen’s strength increased significantly! While Ye Chen was condensing his aura, Old Wu was also shocked. He had devoted his entire life to forging and was no stranger to strength. When Ye Chen transformed, he could clearly feel that Ye Chen’s body contained a terrifying power that was like a top-notch demonic beast from ancient times. Initially, he had thought that Ye Chen’s decision to choose the True God hammer was just because he was too arrogant, but it seemed that he had been mistaken. Ye Chen was not arrogant. He was absolutely confident in his own strength!
