Once the melted mold box merged into the spirit formation, the patterned formation Huo Hai had paid little attention to finally revealed its purpose. An immense surge of light power instantly poured out of the altar.
Huo Hai was startled. After spending so much time here, this was the first time he had discovered that the altar contained such terrifying radiant spiritual power. Spiritual power flowed endlessly through the spirit formation, was compressed, and then entered the longsword floating overhead. Next, distinctive lines appeared on the sword, forming an extraordinary pattern.
As the forging reached its final stage, Huo Hai felt as though the longsword was pulsing. It seemed a long time had passed, yet also only an instant. As the patterns on the sword were completed, the immense power was fully compressed.
Not only the spiritual power, but even the white flames that had surrounded the longsword were completely absorbed into it. The golden longsword fell, plunging straight into the altar. Huo Hai knew that its forging was truly complete.

As though it understood him, the Demon-Subduing Sword gave a humming sound in response. Feeling its vibrations, Huo Hai suddenly received a tremendous shock. This-this was a trait found only in Earth Grade
