Chapter 982 A Thousand Hammers and Hundred Refinements
Yunxi was initially somewhat skeptical. She was now a Golden Immortal, and she had been beaten so badly by the two Ice-Yi White Tigers that she was only one step away from breaking through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. Not to mention her physical strength, her power was incomparable to what it used to be. There was no reason why she couldn't lift a hammer.

But she was mercilessly mocked by Chui Bingzhuo:
"Ranxi, don't doubt it. You're only holding one-tenth of my own weight right now. It's not that I'm looking down on you, but you still need to keep practicing."

Yunxi took a deep breath and decided not to argue with the other party. Since they said she needed to practice more, she would practice more. So, it became a fixed routine for her to carry the hammer and strike the refining materials a thousand times every day. And as her strength increased, the number of strikes would also increase.

It took Yunxi sixty years to adapt to the weight of the Hammer Master and master the technique of removing impurities from the refining materials. When she was able to lift the Hammer Master completely, her cultivation also successfully broke through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm.

"It's just because I'm in a secret realm that I haven't experienced the tribulation of lightning," Hammer Ice Wash said shamelessly.
"Don't worry, once you've completed your apprenticeship, I can leave the secret realm with you. Your body, tempered by this master, will definitely withstand the tribulation lightning. You don't need to worry, just focus on learning weapon crafting."

Yunxi inwardly grimaced. She had thought this big hammer would offer to take the fall for her, but it had only made her happy for nothing.

To be honest, she was indeed able to break through successfully thanks to this big hammer. She had already noticed the changes in her body, and her endurance and strength were no longer what they used to be.

She can now shatter a low-level plane with a single punch, which is why cultivators from high-level planes are forbidden from venturing into low-level planes—the destructive power is simply too great.

Next, Yunxi will learn how to fuse various refining materials. Since refining a weapon cannot use only one type of material, the weapon refiner will fuse suitable materials together to take into account the appearance, function, and attack power of the magic weapon. This process is very important; the result will be different if it is a moment earlier or later, so mastering the timing is crucial.

At this time, the Purple Jade Dragon Cauldron reappeared and began to play its role, but it was disliked by Hammer Ice Cleansing:
"It's a bit low-level, and it's only used for alchemy, but it's usable. Once you graduate, you can find suitable materials to upgrade the Panlong Cauldron so that it can be used for both alchemy and weapon crafting."

Yun Xi helplessly spread his hands and said:
"Master Hammer, this is all we have for now. Don't ask for too much. It's good enough to have a furnace. Let's make do for now and talk about it again after we leave the secret realm."

"Alright, next I will teach you how to fuse refining materials. This is based on the melting points of the materials, and there is also a specific order to follow. If you encounter conflicting refining materials, you will need to add a neutralizing agent."

As Yunxi listened, she tried it herself. At first, her success rate was very low, and she wasted some refining materials. Heartbroken, Chui Bingzhuo chased after her and beat her, claiming that he was helping her strengthen her muscles and bones. Yunxi was so angry that she dared not say anything, since it was only natural for a master to teach his disciple.

This led Yunxi to spend a long time running around the canyon, but her hammer blows were not in vain. Hammering Ice Cleansing truly used her as a prototype to forge her, helping her develop ice-like skin and jade-like bones, making her not only beautiful but also highly lethal.

The Bingyi and Baihu couple had something to watch every day, so they didn't sleep much anymore. When they felt itchy to fight, they would ask Yunxi to spar. Yunxi could occasionally gain the upper hand, which made them quite happy.

When the Forging Fire Secret Realm reopened, the Wanqi family sent disciples in again to try to find Yunxi, but they found nothing before the secret realm closed.

At that time, Yunxi was busy learning how to fuse materials and didn't pay any attention to the immortals who entered the secret realm. She spent a hundred years mastering the fusion technique and then entered the stage of inscribing array patterns. This was the most important part of refining weapons. Array patterns can amplify the attributes of magical weapons, and can maximize their effectiveness in both defense and attack.

Looking at the array patterns that Master Hammer taught her, she thought for a moment and then tried to replace them with divine runes, which ruined the sword embryo she was forging.

Yunxi held the sword blank, which had been broken in two, and began to study it carefully, trying to find out why it had failed.

Master Hammer also flew around the sword blank once, then asked in confusion:

"Ranxi, what did you use to inscribe the array patterns?"

Yunxi said without looking up:
"Use runes, what else can we use?"

"But you're not using runes from the Celestial Realm."

Yunxi then looked up and said:
“I use divine script.”

Master Hammer flew in front of Yunxi in a flash:
"Can you say that again?"

Yunxi asked with a puzzled look, "I used divine script. Divine script is more powerful and can communicate with heaven and earth to enhance the power of magical artifacts."

Hammer Master said speechlessly:

"Alright, stop researching. You'll fail even if you forge a hundred more swords."

Yunxi was somewhat unconvinced:
"how come?"

"These materials simply cannot withstand the power of the divine runes. Unless you can find the most advanced refining materials in the Immortal Realm, you will never succeed no matter how long you try to refine them."

Yunxi suddenly realized that she had overlooked this point. Previously, when she inscribed the divine runes, she used immortal energy, blood essence, and merit to draw them in mid-air, which probably only brought out one-third of the power of the divine runes.

The only array plate that was successfully crafted was used to destroy the passage connecting the Wuwang Ruins to the ancient battlefield, but that success had an element of luck involved.

After finding the cause, Yunxi switched back to the runes commonly used in the Immortal Realm, and this time she succeeded. Next, she shaped the sword blank, then carried out a second forging to make the runes fit the sword body better, and finally baked it to set the shape.

During this process, Ziyan also resigned herself to shining and generating heat, cooperating perfectly with her master, making Yunxi more and more proficient in her practice. When she was forging the fiftieth sword, Master Hammer judged it to be passed, and then she began to forge the second magic weapon.

Yunxi was refining magical artifacts in the center of the secret realm, to the point that she lost all sense of the world around her. It wasn't until Lili used the contract seal to communicate with her that she was able to break free from her frenzied state of refining artifacts.

Even Hammer Ice was relieved at this moment. It was worried that if Yunxi continued refining, she would squander all of its stock. However, the other party was already immersed in refining, and it could not forcibly interrupt her. It could only cooperate. Fortunately, the other party stopped.

Yunxi flashed out of the ice house and communicated with Lili:

"Lili, you've broken through to the Immortal Rank?"

"Yes, Master, Lili is now a celestial beast, and at the third rank, so she can leave seclusion."

Yunxi entered the space with her divine sense, opened the "moon gate," and released Lili.

Lili, who had just stepped out of the Moon Gate, was in her complete form. Her size was no less than that of the Ice-Yi White Tiger, and her pair of black grape eyes were even more piercing. Her yellow and black fur was coated with a layer of light.

The next moment, Lili quickly shrank her body and was then summoned out of the space by Yunxi.

Upon seeing her owner, Lili said with a hint of annoyance:
“Master, you’ve broken through again. Lili is still a step behind.”

Yunxi gently rubbed Lili's head and said with a smile:

"You're making progress, so I can't fall behind!"

Lili squinted her eyes contentedly, nestled comfortably in her owner's arms. She couldn't even remember the last time she had been held by her owner.

At this moment, Bingyi and Baihu leaped in front of Yunxi:

"Ranxi, is this your natal mythical beast?"

　See you tomorrow~ Goodnight~
