Continue Roaming the Continent

Tang Chen and Ning Zi were just about to leave.

A stocky, short middle-aged man appeared with a group from the Forging Association.

They hurried toward Tang Chen.

As he ran, the man called out, "Young friend, please wait!"

Tang Chen stopped at his words and looked at him in confusion.

"You are?"

The man hurriedly introduced himself. "Uh, my name is Tie Hu. I'm the president of the Forging Association here."

Tang Chen looked puzzled. "President Tie, what can I do for you?"

Tie Hu gazed at Tang Chen with admiration and asked earnestly, "Young friend, did you forge a weapon through Divine Forging? Could you let me see it?"

"How did you know?" Tang Chen asked.

Seeing displeasure creep onto Tang Chen's face, Tie Hu quickly explained, "I heard thunder a couple of days ago, somewhere near Gengxin City. But it hasn't rained here for a month, so I wondered if someone had performed Divine Forging on metal. I asked Xiao Zhou to tell me about everyone who might have done it."

Tang Chen's expression softened. He had thought he had let his guard down and been watched. So that was all it was.

He nodded to Tie Hu. "All right."

With that, Tang Chen took his Heavenly Divine Hammer from his Storage Ring.

He set it on the ground and said, "Go ahead."

Tie Hu stared at the Heavenly Divine Hammer Tang Chen had forged, utterly entranced. "Craftsmanship that steals heaven's skill. Something beyond the mortal realm!" he murmured.

Tie Hu's forging skills might have been enough to create an embryonic Divine Artifact like this, but his physical strength made it impossible.

He circled the Heavenly Divine Hammer again and again. At last, he could no longer resist trying to pick it up for a closer look.
