The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 807 Treasures of Civilization
The furnace arrived, and the scorching heat, as intense as the sun, made Richard feel suffocated.

Richard was certain that the Fire Spirit's words were not false at all; if he did not admit defeat, the Fire Spirit could definitely kill him!

"That's a really rigorous test."

Richard's expression was grave as he swung the Titan's Hammer with a fierce roar. Power surged like a tidal wave, and the hammerhead, crackling with black lightning, collided with the attacking furnace, producing a deafening explosion that seemed to split the heavens and earth.

boom!
A shockwave, almost tangible, swept across the plain in an instant, leaving behind a massive, bottomless abyss in the earth.

Richard's hand holding the hammer trembled slightly; he was already struggling to defend himself after just the first move.

"it is good!"

Seeing that Richard had taken the attack unscathed, Furnace Spirit couldn't help but shout "Good!"

The power of his attack was equivalent to the full-force attack of three thousand ordinary Titans.

Even during the height of the Titan civilization, very few Titans could have withstood such a blow so effortlessly, given Richard's current physique.

The Fire Spirit's eyes were full of admiration. Although it was a Fire Spirit, it only appeared in the form of a Fire Spirit because the Furnace Man had the largest dimension.

Its essence is the embodiment of the shared dimensions of the three dimensions.

Seeing that the Titans of later generations possessed such power, Furnace Spirit, being a part of the Titans, couldn't help but feel joy.

"It seems I underestimated you."

Furnace Spirit pulled back into the furnace, its aura swelling once more.

"Come on, let me see your limit!"

As he spoke, Furnace Spirit swung the furnace once more.

The furnace struck like the sun, moving so fast that there was almost no time to react.

At that moment, Richard's mind suddenly became incredibly calm.

The world suddenly began to slow down before his eyes, and his perception of his body reached its limit.

He could clearly feel his very core trembling.

The old life core fragments shattered, and under the influence of the abyss evolution field, those fragments, along with the power of the abyss, transformed into new life core fragments and re-integrated into the life core.

"The power of the abyss has actually been incorporated into the evolution?"

A thought flashed through Richard's mind: in the past evolutions, although the power of the abyss would cause the life core to mutate, it would not be added to the evolution process like raw materials.

The contents of the Titan Body training method flashed through his mind, and Richard instantly understood his condition.

"Is this the beginning?"

The next moment, the slow-motion world ended.

Richard swung his hammer almost instinctively, the violent force causing the cells in his body that were not yet fully evolved to instantly disintegrate.

In an instant, Richard's body exploded into clouds of blood mist. Beneath the blood mist, his body looked as if it had been rolled in a meat grinder, covered in hideous wounds.

boom!
The hammerhead collided with the furnace again.

This time, the violent shockwave was no longer as precise as a scalpel.

It's like a mad bull that's gone berserk, its iron plow violently tearing the earth into irregular, giant abysses.

The plains have vanished, and now beneath the feet of the two terrifying creatures lies only a bottomless, pitch-black abyss.

"Hahaha, good!"

Furnace Spirit cheered again, the appreciation in his eyes turning into amazement.

He could see that Richard had successfully completed an evolution by using his attack.

This evolution brought Richard a hundred points of improvement in physique, and the changes in cells and body structure resulted in a combat power increase that is too high to be quantified!
Under the power of the rules, or rather, the dimensions, Richard's body recovered rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, his body had fully recovered.

The Fire Spirit did not take the opportunity to attack. It was not a product of rigid rules, but a truly intelligent being.

He didn't need to deliberately disgust Richard.

Richard certainly wouldn't stop the trial before reaching his limit. Even if he conceded defeat, he would start the trial again after recovering.

Once the recovery was complete, Richard felt his body was stronger than before and couldn't help but marvel at the power of the Titan Body cultivation method.

"Is this the reason for the Abyss Overlord's astonishing life force field?"

After the power of the abyss participated in the evolution, Richard's energy cycle became even more refined. The power of the abyss participated in the composition of his cells like matter, which qualitatively improved his life force field.

Originally, his life force field could only withstand attacks of a few hundred energy levels at most; true defense still relied on his physical body.

But now, the life force field alone is enough to withstand attacks of thousands of energy levels.

Richard stretched his body, his gaze towards the Fire Spirit filled with fighting spirit.

Without any communication, the furnace struck again.

This time, the furnace's strength has been increased significantly once again.

Even with his evolved powers, Richard could barely withstand the furnace.

Richard's arms trembled slightly, and dark red, viscous blood dripped down the hammer handle, each drop transforming into a twisted creature comparable to the ruler of the world.

But he still didn't stop.

Combat is the best catalyst for the evolution of powerful creatures!

"Again!" he shouted.

Because of the loss of the furnace and the resulting darkness in the furnace-man dimension, thunderous explosions continuously emanated between the two figures.

The aftershocks of the violent battle nearly plowed an entire continent into a trench.

In the sky, Richard's physique grew stronger with each fight, and his aura became increasingly vigorous.

No matter how much he improves, Furnace Spirit can always keep up with him.

In terms of physique, Furnace Spirit is undoubtedly superior. In terms of combat skills, Furnace Spirit is also the embodiment of the Titan dimension, essentially a collection of all Titans since the Shepherd Titan civilization became a civilization.

Richard, who only possessed the legacy of the Furnace Man, was clearly no match for the Furnace Fire Spirit. "Drink!"

Richard swung Titan's Hammer once more, and the power to sink a continent instantly sent the furnace flying.

But this time, he didn't keep shouting for another round.

Because he faintly heard a clicking sound.

"I surrender."

Without hesitation, Richard immediately conceded defeat the moment he experienced the auditory hallucination.

After nearly a month of fighting, he could confirm one thing: the upper limit of Furnace Fire Spirit should be the soft limit of physique, which is 10,000 points.

Before breaking through his limits, there is no way he can defeat Furnace Spirit.

"Wise choice."

The Furnace Spirit put down the furnace and returned to its furnace-human form.

"Your body has reached its limit. Continuing to evolve will only damage your life core."

At this moment, Lu Huoling's attitude had completely transformed into that of an elder guiding a younger generation.

Richard's performance greatly satisfied the Titan portion of the Hearthfire Spirit team.

Richard nodded slightly, placed the Titan's Hammer into the dimensional space, and looked at the Fire Spirit.

"I have a question: what will I get after passing the trial? I think the reward for such a difficult trial should be more than just dimensional power."

For a ruler, dimensional power is important, but not extremely important.

Once dimensions are complete, the importance of dimensional power will decrease by a significant level.

After all, as long as there are no problems with the civilization dimension, the branch dimensions of the rulers will receive dimensional power every moment.

"Of course, it's not just about dimensions," the Fire Spirit smiled. "The three trials represent three inheritances and two supreme treasures of civilization."

"Two pieces?"

Richard noticed this somewhat discordant number.

"Yes, two items."

Furnace Spirit looked at Richard with a surprised expression, as if to say, "How could you ask such a question?"

"The Hearthstone's most precious cultural treasures are already in your possession, so how could there be any new cultural treasures for you?"

Richard was taken aback by what he heard, and felt a little embarrassed.

Indeed, the furnace of the furnace people has become a furnace of miracles; where would they find any treasures of civilization for themselves?

"What is the inheritance of the Furnace Trial?" Richard asked with some doubt. "I already have the inheritance of knowledge."

The Spirit of Furnace Fire opened its arms: "The inheritance of the Furnace Fire Trial is this dimension. The Way of Furnace Fire will nourish your illusory dimension until it is fully mature."

“What about the Titan Trials?” Richard continued to ask.

"The Titan civilization legacy is the legacy of the Shepherd Titans, and their most precious artifact—the Hammer of Creation."

"The Hammer of Creation!?" Richard's eyes widened suddenly. "Isn't that the legend of the Titans?"

Even the Titans, the Shepherds, experienced a long period of ignorance in the early days of civilization.

Back then, the Titans were a nomadic people who spent their days chasing the winds of energy and herding giant beasts across the world.

It was also during this period that the Shepherd Titans acquired their mythology.

Legend has it that the creator god forged this world from nothingness using a hammer and chaos. And that hammer is the Hammer of Creation.

But isn't this just a legend?
“It’s not just a legend,” the Fire Spirit suddenly transformed into a Titan, “In endless dimensions, the boundary between illusion and reality is not so clear-cut.”

The Hammer of Creation is a supreme treasure of civilization, forged using legends and dimensional power as its materials and advanced civilization technology.

In the initial plans, the Hammer of Creation was the prototype of the ultimate weapon.

“How could no one know?” Richard asked in surprise. “I found a Fire Seed base, and there was no record of the Hammer of Creation in the knowledge there.”

“It’s very simple.” A hint of helplessness flashed across Furnace Spirit’s face. “Because the Hammer of Creation has never been used before.”

"How could it not have been used!?" Richard was even more astonished.

Such a powerful treasure, even if you don't use it every day, you should at least have used it at some point.

The helplessness on Lu Huoling's face deepened.

"Because the king didn't like it; he preferred the pure annihilation stone hammer that he forged himself."

According to him, this hammer was too light and not as comfortable to hold as his own.

Richard was stunned. In that instant, he considered many possibilities, such as the weapon could only be used in the Titan dimension, or that the weapon was not fully forged at that time and was only completed in the last million years.

But he never imagined that the Titan King's reason would be so simple.

It's so simple it borders on arrogance.

"Not convenient?"

Richard asked incredulously.

Shouldn't people adapt to this kind of thing?

“Yes, it’s that simple.” The Fire Spirit sighed deeply. “The King was a very arrogant being. He was the first Star Shepherd Titan and the last Star Shepherd Titan.”

In his eyes, the Hammer of Creation was nothing special.

and……"

A hint of reverence flashed in the eyes of the Fire Spirit, a collection of the gazes of countless powerful Titans who had looked upon the Titan King over the past countless years.

"Moreover, the Hammer of Creation is indeed of little use to him."

All the king needs is a hammer that is sturdy and heavy enough.
