Chapter 183 Failing On The Verge Of Success

Inside the Ni family’s big courtyard, Ou Yangming, Old Craftsman, Ni Yunhong, his younger sister, the Ni family’s three Supreme Great Ancestors, and five elders gathered.

The five elders were able to attend the meeting not because of their statuses or their cultivation bases, but because of their smithing abilities.

They were the greatest blacksmith elders in their clan, and Ni Yunhong had learned his skills through their careful guidance.

The Ni family’s Supreme Great Ancestors could not sit idly once they knew Ou Yangming was going to smith magic tools. They immediately gave an order to stop the word from spreading while they s.h.i.+fted their attention to Ou Yangming. This time, the great ancestors even personally came to keep watch and allowed five blacksmith elders to observe from the side.

Nonetheless, the five blacksmith elders cast strange looks at Ou Yangming because they were dubious about the news.

They received news that Ou Yangming displayed his mastery at the Fang residence, where even Fang Xuande praised the young fella’s smithing art and was ashamed of his inferiority instead.

Ou Yangming possessed excellent skills, but if he had to smith a magic tool…

None of the five elders were optimistic about it, and they were ready to mock Ou Yangming.

A magic tool. It was a magic tool that Ou Yangming was going to smith.

How many people in the whole world were confident enough to say “I can smith magic tools”?

In any case, the five elders did not believe it.

Nevertheless, due to the pressure from the three Supreme Great Ancestors, they could only come to watch whether they believed it or not.

Old Craftsman picked a suitable peculiar stone and handed it to Ou Yangming. He instructed, “Smith a military saber.”

The military saber was the first weapon Ou Yangming smithed, and it was the equipment he was most familiar with.

Unquestionably, smithing a military saber was the best option.

Ou Yangming considered for a while before he nodded and said, “Okay.”

He did not incite the Military Fire once he received the stone, but he quietly studied it as though he wanted to perceive its mystery.

The three Supreme Great Ancestors kept quiet, Ni Yunhong and his younger sister were nervous, whereas the five Ni family elders were calm but scornful.

‘What is he trying to do? Be pretentious?’ The elders thought.

Ou Yangming took a deep breath after a long time, and he kept recalling the various changes that occurred when he embedded a gem into his waist sash, which caused it to upgrade into a magic tool.

He had replayed the scene in his head numerous times, where he could perfectly reproduce it as soon as he thought about it.

Ou Yangming paid the most attention to the feeling he had the instant the sash was upgraded.

The power inside the waist sash broke through the world’s limit at the moment, allowing it to arrive at a new height. It was the exact reason the waist sash could be upgraded into a magic tool.

‘What exactly happened during that time?’ Although Ou Yangming recalled the process countless times, he dared not say that he had fully comprehended it. Ou Yangming could only say after his experience that he had vaguely grasped the network behind it, and he could carry out a targeted attempt.

“Woosh…”

His Military Fire suddenly burned and enveloped the rare stone.

The stone quickly melted due to the burning Military Fire, and the melted liquid formed the shape of a military saber under Ou Yangming’s control.

Ni Yunhong and his younger sister were not surprised at all because they had witnessed the process many times.

On the other hand, the five blacksmith elders’ faces changed.

Ou Yangming’s act was not astounding because they could easily do the same. However, the process of the bizarre stone melting and turning into a military saber was so smooth that everything seemed like uncanny workmans.h.i.+p, and they could not find a single flaw.

The five elders exchanged glances and noticed how appalled they all were.

‘This young fella is actually something!’

Even though the military saber had not been completed, they already had a relatively high remark for it.

They were certain that the military saber was of great quality even if it was not a magic tool.

Ou Yangming was fully immersed in the smithing process. His Military Fire grew more vigorous while the military saber constantly twisted inside, causing every impurity to be eliminated at the speed of light.

His forehead was covered in sweat by then, but he fixed his eyes on the military saber.

Ou Yangming could sense that the saber was getting closer to the peak of Fine Grade.

Throughout the process, he did not utilize his ability to upgrade the weapon; he fully relied on his own strength.

This was because he had a feeling that he could not smith a real magic tool even by using the unique upgrading ability if he could not get past the hurdle.
