Chapter 320 [The Impossible]
During the past few days of forging alloys, he noticed that his success rate had increased. It was clear to him that the bond between metal and blood essence was deeper than the one between metal and soul power. After that discovery ,Ouranos level of forging entered a whole new realm. He didn’t increase in rank, but his success rate soared.
This was the reason why he could forge the titanium crystal so perfectly today.
Ouranos's hammers rained down on the titanium crystal. The golden ball inside of it grew brighter with each heavy hit, growing larger as the crystal that encased it became smaller. This was a truly bizarre scene to behold. It looked as if he were actually granting life to the metal.
Everyone knew that titanium crystal was spirit refined the moment that only its gold remained. Titanium gold had an astronomical value. It was one of the top ten metals and could be reforged into an alloy. Forget normal spirit masters, even Titled Immortal desired such a metal! All who were not yet four-word battle armor masters would! A single piece of titanium gold could drastically boost the toughness and other properties of battle armor. It was an absolute treasure. Titanium crystal was rare, but finding titanium gold was like spotting a unicorn! A piece once appeared in an auction auction and sold for a whopping eighty million coins! It was so rare that it didn’t have a set market value!
Ouranos kept on his forging he was still calm but his face showed that he was pale and tired he couldn't help it but stare straight ahead and he shook his head he can't give up at all.
He could feel the connection between the metal and his bloodline growing deeper and more intense. The titanium crystal was an infant about to be born and on the verge of gaining awareness.
Ouranos could feel his blood essence roar within him. It was being consumed at a much slower pace than his soul power had been. He allowed its flow to reverse, feeling no need to really control it. The aura of his blood essence immediately grew thicker, a warmth spreading throughout his body.
Boom after the boom filled the air. The song of Ouranos's forging now followed the same tune as Parker had. In fact, it was even louder. The titanium crystal grew brighter with each strike, the golden ball rapidly filling the space that the crystal of the metal previously occupied.
W-what! He’s about to succeed at spirit refining? H-he’s actually a fifth-rank blacksmith?
Parker looked at Ouranos in shock. He was one of the oldest students in the second grade so of course he has always thought to himself as a prodigy for becoming a fourth rank blacksmith. But then Kimberly appeared a fifteen year old girl who was already a fourth rank blacksmith they were many people who believed she was extremely talented and she should go up but she told them she would rather not. No one knew the reason. Parker eyes narrowed he didn't look down at the young boy at all but he was shocked to see him be this talented
Oruanos group of friends cheered loudly as if there wasn't anything else to do.
But then Ouranos did the impossible!
He’s still young! He can’t be more than fifteen, much younger than me, yet he can actually spirit refine! I don’t even know when I’ll be able to!
In the audience, a pair of shining eyes stared at Ouranos in astonishment. These eyes belonged to Kimberly!
She stood up he really does know how to spirit refine she knew the moment when they asked her to go up on the arena. It was already case she in her heart that her class would lose this match there was no way they would be able to win this fight.
Kimberly smile grew wider and wider as she watched him forge. He’s advanced step by step, and now he’s able to spirit refine titanium crystal. Is there anything he can’t do? Fortunately, none of her classmates paid any attention to her. They were all focused on the spectacle happening on-stage. If some had seen her face, they surely would have doubted which side she was on.
The metal started making small cracks, cracks, cracks.
Did he actually fail?
Cracks quickly ran rampant across the metal ball, branching off into two, then four, then eight, until a myriad of them completely covered the ball.
Then, after a tense moment, the crystal broke apart. Thin translucent flakes fell away from the ball one by one, each coming to rest atop the forging table to reveal a flawless golden ball that exuded life. Evangeline could feel the life force the mental and she nodded her head approving this.
The golden ball resembled a bird that had just hatched. It slowly floated up into the air, then it began circling Ouranos like a baby bird greeting its mother, breaking the silence of the arena with cheerful humming. It rubbed against Ouranos and kept on flying around like crazy with joy and it flattered around the arena and it came back to Ouranos and it kept on rubbing on Ouranos. After all he was the one that granted it life which meant it was the father of the little metal that life!
He had granted this metal life and sentience. He had succeeded at spirit refining before, but the product hadn’t been anywhere near as intelligent as this golden ball before him. This was his first time seeing such intelligent spirit refined metal.
It was a miracle.
