Chapter 522 Earth Wind Treasures
“Yes! Of course!” Lingyu replied immediately upon seeing the materials Wu Chang had taken out.

In response to questions about peace, he replied that any hesitation, even for a second, would be disrespectful to the materials before him.

He had entered world instances before and recognized the auras of the Wind Demon King and Earth Demon King on these two materials, thus guessing that they must be extraordinary items dropped by the two.

With the Divine Craftsman's Furnace and the Immortal Essence Golden Scale Pearls before him, he no longer found the "Wind Feather" and "Earth Horn" so impressive; they even seemed somewhat ordinary.

However, this ordinariness is only in comparison to other materials obtained peacefully. Just looking at "Wind Feather" and "Earth Corner," they are anything but ordinary.

They can easily create an A-grade item involving the power of origin by simply taking any one of the core materials, even without using the Divine Craftsman's Furnace.

It should be noted that when he upgraded his Spirit Craftsmanship to the Grandmaster level, the test he underwent was simply to forge an A-grade item, and that was an ordinary A-grade item that did not involve the power of origin.

The two main materials used in that masterpiece that proved his strength were merely extraordinary items dropped by monsters at the demon general level.

With an already powerful A-grade item as the base, using divine-grade materials as the main material for reforging, and smelting it in the Divine Craftsman's Furnace, even the auxiliary materials are extraordinary items dropped by demigod-level demon kings.

Lingyu wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth. In his entire life, when had he ever fought such a lucrative battle?

This upcoming reforging is absolutely every blacksmith's dream; the materials used are so luxurious that they would be considered divinely wrathful.

He had a premonition that if he could complete this forging, his Grandmaster-level Spirit Craftsmanship would be able to advance further, not only breaking through to the Lord level, but even vaguely seeing the path of the legendary Divine Craftsman.

He would be willing to forge this kind of thing, even if it were done peacefully using divine contracts, or even if it were free—no, even if he had to pay for it himself.

The oracle looked at the materials in front of him and said:
"Your Excellency Peace, the extraordinary items you have taken out are all core materials in the forging process. They need matching auxiliary materials to activate their effects and act as a bridge to perfectly fuse them together in order to achieve their best results."

Wu Chang frowned slightly and said:
"What other materials do we need? Is it too late to find them now?"

During the world instance, he witnessed Su Wangyou reforging the Goddess of Fortune for him. At that time, Su Wangyou only used a piece of spiritual golden scale and completed the reforging with a few taps and hammers, which made him think that reforging should be that simple.

Looking back now, perhaps Lady Luck's favor was too low, and Su Wangyou didn't need to waste her time.

The reforging of the Golden Throne obviously cannot be done perfunctorily. He has used so many of his tools, and if they cannot achieve their perfect effect, he will find it unacceptable.

He planned to have Lingyu make a list, and then he would take the list to the four major organizations to borrow from them. He had done the Order Faction such a big favor this time, so he figured Hou Jingchuan and the others couldn't refuse to lend him the money.

The oracle waved his hand and said:
"As a blacksmith, I usually collect some forging materials, which will be useful for this reforging."

Wu Chang looked at the oracle in surprise and asked:

"What do I have to give?"

The oracle said:

"Being able to participate in this great forging is already the best reward."

Wu Chang glanced at Ling Yu a couple more times. He hadn't expected that this Holy Son of Tranquility was so considerate. Considering how good Ling Yu was at interpersonal relationships, he would let Ling Yu off the hook when he overthrew the Tranquility Church.

"Then it'll be hard work."

Lingyu took out more than a dozen extraordinary items from his personal space, and adjusted the amount to use according to their attributes.

Fifteen minutes later, he took a deep breath, took out his master hammer, and stood in front of the divine forge.

Wu Chang granted Ling Yu access to the Divine Craftsman's Furnace. Ling Yu naturally grasped the method of using the furnace. As he activated the array on the furnace, the temperature inside rose further.

He first placed the golden throne into the furnace, and in the blink of an eye, the throne was burning red-hot.

He then threw the "Horn of the Earth" into it. As the most core part of the Rock Armor Rhinoceros King, the "Horn of the Earth" contained the rules of the earth and was extremely solid. Even the Divine Craftsman's Furnace could not melt it in a short time.

Then it was Triton's turn to appear. She replaced the bellows array on the forge and summoned a divine storm to flow into it.

The wind fanned the flames, and with the divine storm infiltrating it, even the sturdy "corner of the earth" began to melt.

Once the most difficult hurdle is overcome, the following steps become much simpler.

The oracle placed the "Wind Feather" and other materials he had prepared into the furnace in different orders, constantly changing the hammering method as he tapped and pounded the golden throne.

During the forging process, he also remotely controlled Tessa, allowing her to consume excess heat through the power of devouring, thus achieving a more precise temperature control than the forge itself.

The oracle's demands were tedious, the temperature changes were urgent, and his attitude was extremely irritable, but Tessa accepted the oracle's commands with relish and showed no impatience whatsoever.

This was not because Wu Chang was supervising the work, but because consuming the earth fire within the divine craftsman's furnace was extremely beneficial to her.

Even a fool knows that the earth fire inside the Divine Craftsman's Furnace is a valuable resource. If she were to ask for it directly, He Ping might not be willing to give it to her, and even if she were, she would have to pay a heavy price. By using the excuse of helping, she can not only eat it openly, but He Ping will also have to thank her after the forging is completed.

Thus, with the combined efforts of the three lower gods, raw materials were fed into the divine furnace and fused with the golden throne.

All the materials were fused together with the golden throne. At the last moment, Lingyu reluctantly threw the Immortal Essence Golden Scales into the Divine Craftsman's Furnace.

The moment the Immortal Essence Golden Scale was added, a burst of celestial energy erupted. Unlike the "Wind Feather" or "Earth Horn," it did not cause any obvious changes to the Golden Throne upon its addition, but everyone could sense that the Golden Throne in the furnace was undergoing some changes.

The change was indescribable, yet it was like the finishing touch on a painting, giving the golden throne, which was originally an "inanimate object," a soul.

Guided by celestial energy, the accumulated heavenly lightning above continuously struck down.

After nine bolts of heavenly lightning, and after the final hammering by the oracle, the oracle commanded Tessa to transform into a giant wolf and directly carry the golden throne out of the divine furnace.

Tessa's divine power to absorb light and heat, when used in forging, is far more effective than any quenching process.

After the golden throne cooled down and returned to gold from its fiery red state, a new golden throne, combining magnificence and majesty, appeared before everyone's eyes.

Like the old Golden Throne, the new Golden Throne retains its heavy texture, and has even been super-enhanced.

The previous Golden Throne was just a more imposing metal chair. The current Golden Throne is three meters tall, and in addition to the throne itself, there are three tiers of steps below as a base.

At either end of the throne are two enormous golden rhinoceroses serving as armrests. Behind the throne's backrest, a pair of golden wings unfold, their ornate design replicating the wings of the original Azure Feather Bird, with faint golden light swirling between them.

The backrest of the chair and the two rhinoceros armrests are inlaid with jewels of various decorations, which, together with the patterns between the parts of the throne, connect the different parts of the throne as a whole.

Wu Chang couldn't help but sigh. Ling Yu truly lived up to his reputation as a master blacksmith. Regardless of the effects of the tools, the craftsmanship alone far surpassed that of the original Golden Throne.

He walked up the golden steps to the golden throne, turned around and sat on it.

Item Name: Golden Throne

Item Level: A (Upgradeable)

"Item Description: By sitting on this throne, your soul will shine as pure as gold, your body will be as eternal and indestructible as gold, you will be crowned king and begin your own golden kingdom."

"Item Skill: King of Gold"

"Skill Description: When equipped with the Golden Throne, your soul will be flawless. You will be immune to all control below the Root level. All non-divine mental skills and statuses will be partially weakened, with a weakening degree of 40+ (the difference between your inspiration and the opponent's will/10)."

When you are attacked by divine spiritual skills or status effects, if the opponent's divinity is no more than two realms higher than yours, the effect is reduced to 50%; if the opponent's divinity is significantly higher than yours, the effect is reduced to 30%.

"Item Skill: Earth Wind Treasure"

"Skill Effect: The Golden Throne can transform into four special forms: Greatsword (Earth), Armor (Earth), Scepter (Wind), and Crown (Wind). A maximum of two forms can exist at the same time. If the two forms have the same attributes, the corresponding set attributes will be activated."

When you equip both a greatsword and armor, you gain the set bonus: you will receive 40% damage reduction and ignore any knockback or interruption effects.

When you equip both the scepter and the crown, you gain the Wind Set bonus: all energy-based skills are enhanced by 50%, and you can transform yourself into an elemental state, becoming immune to all physical attacks, but taking 30% more energy attacks.

"Item Skill: Golden Kingdom"

"Skill Description: Construct an indestructible inner world. In the Golden Kingdom, the cooldown time of your spatial abilities is greatly reduced. You can arbitrarily change the terrain of the Golden Kingdom and attach a golden rule that applies to everyone."

"Item Skill: ???" "Skill Status: Not Activated"

Skill Description: ???

The Golden Throne did not disappoint Wu Chang's investment in it, and was directly upgraded from an ordinary A-grade item to an A-grade upgradeable item.

The skills of the Golden Throne have not only been greatly enhanced, but its core treasures and Golden Kingdom skills have also undergone a qualitative change.

In mysticism and various religions, gold, due to its stability and scarcity, often carries special significance, typically associated with the soul, preciousness, royalty, eternity, and divinity.

The reforged Golden Throne's three skills, to some extent, correspond to these traits.

After being amplified by the Immortal Golden Scales, the Golden Throne is no longer subject to the upper limit, and its first skill changes directly from "Chosen One" to "Golden King".

This change means that the reason why the person holding the throne is immune to abnormal states has changed from being blessed by the gods to having a flawless soul. They no longer rely on the gods, and can even resist some of the gods' power.

Next comes the Earth and Wind Treasure, which incorporates "Wind Feather" and "Earth Corner." The Treasure Skill represents the preciousness and rarity of gold.

The upgraded Treasure Skills have increased the number of forms of the Golden Throne from three to four, with each form corresponding to a different power.

The greatsword represents unparalleled sharpness, the armor represents impenetrable defense, the scepter represents control and suppression of the elements, and the crown represents the powerful posture of a king.

The four different forms are each influenced by the rules of wind and earth.

Both the greatsword and armor forms are influenced by the rules of the earth. They can grow larger and smaller according to Wu Chang's size, and they also possess the sturdiness effect of the rules of the earth.

The rules of the earth represent an absolutely solid elemental form; pure energy without impact will have little effect on the form of greatswords and armor.

This means that when facing abilities that do not contain divinity, even those at the source level, the golden greatsword can easily pass through various energy barriers, and the golden armor can withstand various energy attacks.

The scepter and crown, in particular, are influenced by the rules of wind.

The rules of wind represent the flow and change of elements, and are the most flexible and changeable of the rules of earth, water, fire, and wind.

Wu Chang had never used the Golden Scepter's abilities before. It possesses two abilities: one is the control of elements, which can change one's own elemental attributes to better adapt to the effects of magic; the other is the ability to micromanage the released skills, making the skill effects more precise and the trajectory more unpredictable.

In addition, the golden scepter can also emit mental pressure to suppress targets within its range.

After incorporating the rules of wind, the Golden Scepter's control over the elements is further enhanced, and its pressure effect can be applied not only to living things but also to energy, allowing it to directly disrupt an opponent's skills.

The final golden crown is a new form added to the Golden Throne. In the Midnight Graveyard dungeon, Mikel I used this form before. However, after defeating him, the Ascension Crown, which allows Irene to be upgraded to a Power Angel, was dropped. Wu Chang then assumed that the Golden Throne did not have a crown form.

After this reforging, the Golden Throne regained its crown shape, and its effect is somewhat similar to the former Ascended Crown.

When wearing the crown, he can designate a specific item or ability to temporarily upgrade it by one level.

The effect sounds powerful, but it's not without limitations. The limitation for this item is that it cannot be used on oneself or on S-rank items.

The limitation on the ability is that its level cannot exceed Wu Chang's current life state.

Simply put, Wu Chang is currently at the Lord level, so the Crown's upgrade effect can only apply to Lord-level skills. For example, it can temporarily upgrade his Lord-level Mysticism to the lowest level, Lower God Divine Script.

For the time being, there is nothing that can be done about the powerful abilities such as the Seed of the Deep Sea Origin and the Power of Chaos, as well as the even more powerful colored titles and extraordinary talents, such as the Crown of Ascension.

However, this was exactly what Wu Chang had expected. The level of existence of the colored titles was frighteningly high. Not to mention A-grade upgradeable items, even if the Golden Throne were upgraded to S-grade, it wouldn't be enough to enhance this ability.

The four forms of the Earth Wind Treasures are already very powerful. Each one is an extremely powerful A-grade item on its own, not to mention that they can be combined to form extremely powerful set attributes.

It can be said that the treasures from the earth alone were worth Wu Chang's investment.

As for the final skill, the Golden Kingdom, it embodies the royal power and eternity of gold.

The upgraded Golden Kingdom became indestructible and existed eternally.

As the owner of the Golden Kingdom, Wu Chang can also exercise "royal power" and set rules for the Golden Kingdom.

Although the golden rule he established also applies to himself, if applied properly and as long as the opponent cannot break through the golden rule, he is almost invincible.

He only needs to add the condition that "only martial arts techniques are effective within the Golden Kingdom" to be able to kill most of his enemies.

Wu Chang shifted his attention from the golden throne and looked down at the three Spirit Oracles below.

The three of them were gazing at the golden throne, their eyes filled with envy.

Triton and Tessa both came from small organizations with limited resources. Before receiving support from the Light Society, they didn't even have A-grade items. They had rarely even seen A-grade evolutionary items in person.

Lingyu, being the Holy Son of Tranquility, possessed far greater knowledge than the other two. However, precisely because of his extensive experience and his status as a Grandmaster-level blacksmith, he was even more aware that the true strength of the Golden Throne far exceeded its apparent level.

Seeing Wu Chang's gaze turn towards them, the three quickly looked away, and Ling Yu asked:

"Your Excellency Peace, are you satisfied with this item?"

Wu Chang put away the golden throne, came to Ling Yu's side, and patted him on the shoulder.

"You did a great job, I'm very satisfied. I'll come to you again if I need anything related to forging next time."

Upon hearing this, Lingyu's face immediately lit up with excitement.

"Don't worry, I will definitely not let you down!"

Rebuilding the Golden Kingdom successfully upgraded his Grandmaster-level Spirit Craftsman to Lord-level, and the benefits he gained were greater than those from crafting dozens of low-grade A-level items.

Peace can collect such outrageous materials in the Desolate Realm; heaven knows what he can get in the Realm of Reason.

If I forge a few more items for Heping, I might be able to become a master craftsman just by relying on this one client.

As the forging of the Golden Kingdom was completed, the flames in the divine craftsman's furnace gradually died down, and the earth fire that overflowed from the furnace flowed into a river, spreading outwards along the mountainside.

Unlike ordinary magma, earth fire gathers the essence of the earth. Wherever it passes, it turns the land into scorched earth, but the scorched earth is nurtured by spiritual energy. When the earth fire is extinguished, this land will become the most fertile and spiritual land in the plane.

Before the subterranean fire dies out, using them as a fire source is far superior to using ordinary flames.

Triton felt nothing for the subterranean fire, but the Oracle and Tessa were envious.

Wu Chang saw what the two were thinking and waved his hand, saying:

"This plane has survived a calamity and needs to be nourished by the earth's fire. You cannot take all of the remaining earth's fire; each of you may take a quarter."

Lingyu and Tessa were delighted. After thanking Wu Chang, they got to work.

The Oracle collects earth fire for forging, while Tessa collects it for food.

Wu Chang valued fairness, and Triton also contributed to the recasting of the Golden Throne. The remaining residue after the Golden Throne was recast was given to Triton as payment.

Although they are remnants, they are remnants of the Golden Throne, the Feather of Wind, and the Horn of Earth. They have also been affected by the Immortal Essence Golden Scales. With the help of the Spirit Oracle, these remnants can be used to reforge Triton's Trident into a decent A-grade item.

After the three received their benefits, Wu Chang opened the Pillar of the Present World, allowing them to leave the Underground Sanctuary plane, while he himself went alone to the Divine Craftsman's Furnace.

The Divine Craftsman's Furnace, activated by the Earth Fire Token, is a one-time use item. After forging the Golden Throne, the furnace itself, and even the entire Immortal Abode, are now covered in cracks.

Wu Chang transformed the golden throne into a greatsword and inserted it into the gap of the forging furnace. With a slight pry, the forging furnace collapsed with a roar, and the entire immortal mansion shattered along with it.

Amidst the ruins, Wu Chang summoned the golden scepter and used the wind to disperse the smoke and dust.

He then used the golden greatsword to further dismantle the forge, dismantling it all the way to the center, where a flame floated in the air, still dancing energetically.
