The temperature in Sword Crafting Hall was maintained at a rather high level. Heat waves tumbled about, and they were accompanied by deafening sound waves that were everywhere in the air above Sword Crafting Hall. It drained a person's body, mind, and spirit!
Happy noticed that the young people who had bullied him previously only moved around a few times before they walked outside covered in sweat to meditate and recover their qi.
Even some of the Sword Crafting Hall disciples who seemed to be very strong started having a hard time after staying for a period of time. Once they persevered for a period of time, they left and were replaced by new Sword Crafting Hall disciples.
Happy was even more impressed.
It was no wonder then why the mighty northern clan could become the top business in the Chinese server in such a hot and terrible environment. It was indeed not something a normal faction of power could do.
It was also no wonder why Sword Sect and the Nangong Clan would hand over the repair spot for Heaven Crystal to the mighty northern clan. If even the mighty northern clan could not succeed, there might not be anyone else in the world who could complete the task.
However, after doing the quest for a long period of time, Happy was delighted to find that his Arm Strength had actually increased by a little as he continuously moved heavy charcoal materials. Besides, Nine Yang Divine Skill continued circulating, and his qi also climbed up a little. The training speed did not lose to martial arts.
'As expected, it's a good place to train.'
Happy finally understood why the mighty northern clan could cultivate such a large number of forgemasters, Moksha Realm, and Inaction Realm martial artists.
After all, Heaven Crystal still needed some time to be repaired, and at that time, Ten Thousand Swords would remind him. Hence, Happy decided to immerse himself in training and seize the time to slowly increase his qi and Arm Strength.
He was about to fight against One Emperor, and if he could increase his strength in the last few days, he would do so. Happy would never think that he had too much!
But he did not know that half an hour after he entered Sword Crafting Hall, he had been noticed by some people.
"That young man is a new disciple, right?"
"That's right. He should be. I think he's called Mu Li."
"You have a deep impression of him?"
"Yes. He's Elder Lu's grandnephew. He entered in the same batch as him, and he often bullies him with the others. I ran into him a few times, and he often overloads himself with work. But what I find strange is that his Arm Strength used to be very bad, but after some time, I haven't seen him, he has become much stronger. His Arm Strength has increased very quickly, and his resistance to heat and tenacity have actually surpassed that of a normal Sword Crafting Hall disciple. It's truly unbelievable."
"Oh, interesting. Does that mean that he is very used to the environment of our Sword Forging Hall?"
"Elder, it looks like you want to promote him to an official Sword Crafting Hall disciple?" In the sky above Sword Crafting Hall, a few people stood on the stairs and monitored everything in Sword Crafting Hall without batting an eyelid while the red waves of air intersected with each other.
However …
When these people spoke, Happy keenly noticed some of their voices.
He frowned and followed the gaze that was fixed on him. Without batting an eyelid, he shifted his gaze in that direction. His Nine Yang Divine Skill's spiritual senses spread out even faster under the high temperature, and he finally caught sight of a person dozens of feet in the air. He was shocked.
The people in the air were clearly extraordinary Inaction Realm martial artists, and one of them might not lose to the great elder of the evil cult.
Happy quickly calmed down the slightly fluctuating emotions in his heart. He looked inside himself and was certain that there were no flaws in the human skin mask on his face. If it were not for the fact that he was familiar with everything in Sword Crafting Hall and Ten Thousand Swords had created a human skin mask that could withstand high heat based on the unique situation in the place, Happy's human skin mask would have long since been exposed to the heat. Also, due to the effect of Nine Yang Divine Skill concealing itself, Happy's physical constitution made him look like a normal teenager, which was why he managed to fool the people's eyes.
"He's such a good seedling. He will definitely enter Sword Crafting Hall, but there's no hurry to promote him. We can pay more attention to him and see just what realm he can reach on his own."
The person who spoke was a man with a head full of red hair. He looked to be in his forties, and his temples were bulging. His eyes shone brightly, and his built body was filled with explosive muscles. He gave off an astonishing pressure.
The people beside him were also extraordinary, but compared to the elder, they were slightly inferior. The only similarity they had in common was that they were all very young!
The elder spoke again.
"This time, Sword Sect and the Nangong Clan brought Heaven Crystal to the mighty northern clan, and it attracted quite a number of Chinese players' attention. Aside from the old guys from the Nangong Clan, there are also the elites from Xicheng Clan and Dongfang Clan. They're all people of the older generation who are about to enter their graves. "Hmph! When they heard about Heaven Crystal, all of them threw away their dignity and wanted to come and observe it. What sort of place do they think Heaven Shaker Fortress is?!"
He stopped talking for a moment before he gave a few orders to the people beside him.
"But these old guys aren't easy to deal with. They will definitely join in! Fortunately, Heaven Crystal has reappeared in the world today. Be on your guard, don't let anyone take advantage of the situation. "
"Understood, elder!"
"Elder, are we really going to hand Heaven Crystal over to Sword Sect and the Nangong Clan?"
"Hmph, of course we're going to hand it over!"
The elder let out a long sigh and answered without hesitation.
"In the past, the Nangong Clan rose to the top of the game because of Heaven Crystal, and within a short period of time, they reached the peak of the game, but what happened in the end? They fought against the people from the legendary evil cult until their family was destroyed, and because of it, the Nangong Clan has fallen to its current state. Heaven Crystal might be an ancient divine weapon, but it's also a source of calamity. It brings endless disasters, and it's not a blessing in disguise! "
Happy listened to the elder's words carefully from below, and he was stunned.
Indeed, the elder of the mighty northern clan had extraordinary knowledge!
He stopped talking for a moment before he continued speaking.
"Heaven Shaker Fortress has seen all sorts of divine weapons over the centuries, and there is no one who can surpass us when it comes to our understanding toward divine weapons! True divine weapons can only be obtained by peerless elites who are benevolent, righteous, and have a heart for the world. As of now, we don't have such a person in the mighty northern clan. That's why it's not worth it to break the rules we've followed for generations for Heaven Crystal and bring about the destruction of the fortress and the end of our legacy! "
The elder's last sentence was filled with a myriad of emotions and the regret of missing out on Heaven Crystal.
When he heard this, Happy frowned.
'Does that mean that the mighty northern clan doesn't actually have the intention to fight for or keep Heaven Crystal?
'What's going on?!
'Damn it …
'Did the four abandoned disciples of Sword Sect lie to me, or did the quest change?'
Happy had a lot of experience from his previous life, so he quickly noticed the change in the quest. He also quickly grasped the possibility of two of the changes.
The four abandoned disciples of Sword Sect did not have the prestige of the sect, so it was not impossible for them to lie. However, based on what Happy understood while he was on the way, the four had a deep hatred for Sword Sect, so it should not be fake. Besides, Defeating Armies had even sacrificed his own life to protect Happy.
If Happy eliminated this possibility, then there was only one possibility left …
The quest had changed!
Happy soon remembered the things they mentioned during their conversation, and a faint hint of unease instantly rose in his heart.
It seemed like he had stayed in Sword Crafting Hall for too long!
