Sixty Years of Smithing: One Hammer Strike Forged My Immortal Path

Li Ping'an, a menial worker of the Tongtian Sword Sect, has low talent and a short lifespan.

For sixty years, day and night he forged iron, bitterly keeping a promise, but what awaited him was his old friend reaching the pinnacle, the separation between immortal and mortal.

In desperate straits, his family heirloom iron hammer awakened the power to forge heaven, capable of transforming decay into spiritual essence, refining the dregs of all things.

In a neglected, abandoned hall, using waste materials as resources, with a mortal body he comprehends the Dao.

He does not contend for momentary glory as a heaven's pride, nor seeks sudden ascent to the clouds.

On the long immortal path, only through bitter endurance and steadfast action, I, with a mere mortal frame, step by step through arduous cultivation, ultimately exchange it for a supreme immortal body.
