He was born as a blacksmith, but he dominated the world

Chapter 260 The Way of Benevolence and Righteousness
[Perfect quenching, quality improved by 1%, attribute +]

[Good quality hammer, hardness +15, self-repair +1]

Looking at the hammer head that was still steaming in front of him, the magical treasure tree pattern on the hammer had already lit up five branches, and the sixth branch had just begun to tip.

Top grade spiritual weapon!

Jiang Lin exhaled slowly, feeling a little regretful in his heart.

This hammer incorporates only sixteen materials, most of which are used to increase hardness, and one of which increases its self-healing ability.

But I didn’t add much, so I don’t know if it would be of much use.

Jiang Lin glanced at the remaining twenty or thirty kinds of materials nearby. Unfortunately, the characteristics of these materials were not suitable for use in the hammer. Otherwise, if all of them were integrated into it, it would at least be a low-grade Xuan weapon.

However, the top-grade spiritual weapon is sufficient for now, and the most important thing is that its hardness has been increased by 15 points!
Even if the originally crafted weapons are only added 2 or 4 points, there will be a significant improvement. What does these 15 points mean?
Jiang Lin didn't know the answer either, so he simply took out a piece of black crystal iron, raised the hammer, and hit it hard.

boom--

The hard black crystal iron was smashed into a pancake shape by a hammer. Jiang Lin didn't even feel any resistance, as if he was smashing an egg with a hammer.

The entire hammer head even sank into the iron table. When I picked up the hammer again, there was no trace left.

There was a hint of surprise in Jiang Lin's eyes. Hardness +15 was indeed amazing. Considering this attribute alone, even the top-grade Xuan weapons might be inferior to it.

This was the result of him not bringing in the vital energy of heaven and earth. If he had really brought in the vital energy of heaven and earth, the shop would probably have been destroyed with one blow of the hammer.

"What a good hammer!" Jiang Lin picked up a rag and wiped the hammer head, muttering to himself: "With such hardness, if I can collect enough materials and upgrade it to divine weapon level, I'm afraid it can even smash the stars with one hammer. I'll call it the Star Destroying Hammer."

Putting the hammer on the iron table, Jiang Lin turned his head and looked outside.

It was already dark, but there were still many people gathered around and did not leave.

Seeing that Jiang Lin had nothing to do, Qi the Blacksmith and the others came over and asked eagerly, "Master Jiang, are you making ironware? What's the quality?"

"A top-grade spiritual weapon." Jiang Lin replied.

"Ah? It's only a top-grade spiritual weapon? Shouldn't it be a low-grade mysterious weapon?" said a blacksmith with a downcast face.

"Come on, a top-grade spiritual weapon is already very powerful. You will never be able to touch it in your entire life! Give me the silver now!" said several other blacksmiths proudly.

The blacksmith made a bitter face and took out dozens of taels of silver from his pocket.

Jiang Lin couldn't help laughing. Is he betting with himself?

Blacksmith Qi said with a smile: "Although it is not a low-grade Xuan weapon, you can forge a high-grade spiritual weapon in such a short time. Lord Jiang has far surpassed others. Congratulations!"

"If Lord Jiang practices more, he might be able to forge a hammer of Xuanbing grade." A blacksmith who received the silver said complacently. It was great to earn ten taels of silver for nothing!

Hearing this, Jiang Lin's heart moved. He turned to look at Hengyu Furnace, then picked up the hammer and walked over.

The fire had not yet gone out, and Jiang Lin put the hammer back in.

Qi the blacksmith looked at this curiously and asked, "Master Jiang, do you want to forge it again?"

Jiang Lin said nothing, just stared at the fire.

The fire temperature was not high, only about one thousand degrees, and it could not even have any effect on the hammer.

After burning for a while, a line of information floated before Jiang Lin's eyes, and he was immediately delighted.

[A hammer of better quality, with hardness +17, self-repair +3, and comes with a thousand-hammering effect (each hammer improves the quality by one ten-thousandth)]

The hardness and self-repair properties are both increased by 2 points, and there is also an additional hammering effect.

Each hammer improves the quality by one ten-thousandth!

Compared with those skills and abilities that can improve by dozens or even hundreds, one ten-thousandth seems insignificant, but the same weapon will require at least two or three hundred hammers.

What's more, like the hammer and the Hengyu furnace, as long as there are additional effects, they can be upgraded with the grade.

It is one in ten thousand now, but it may not be the case in the future.

If one could improve the quality by a few percent with one strike, the effect would be much stronger than a single skill!

The only pity is that although the hammer triggered the probability of upgrading its grade to perfection, it only upgraded it by one level.

"It's still difficult to improve the grade by two levels with a one-thousandth chance." Jiang Lin smiled faintly: "But with such an improvement, it's worth it."

This is equivalent to saving more than ten or twenty kinds of materials, so there is no need to worry about gains and losses.

Then, Jiang Lin put the hammer on the table and said to the blacksmiths who had just divided the silver, "Now it is a low-grade Xuan weapon."

Several people were stunned, and then ran over to look at the magical treasure tree pattern on the hammer.

"One, two, three, four, five, six! They are really low-grade Xuan weapons!" a blacksmith exclaimed.

"No, I just put it in the furnace to burn for a while, how come it became a low-grade Xuan weapon?" The other people were surprised. "Stop talking nonsense, give me back my silver! There is still one person who owes me ten taels, hurry up!" The blacksmith who had a bitter face just now was now flushed with excitement.

It is really a desperate situation with no way out, but there is another village with dark flowers and bright flowers!
"With your strength, you are not worthy of looking down on Lord Jiang! I have said that the iron weapon made by Lord Jiang must be a low-grade Xuan weapon, hahahahahaha..."

The other blacksmiths looked at his arrogance and felt like vomiting blood. They wanted to curse someone, but they didn't know who to curse.

They could only pay the money while looking at Jiang Lin with resentment.

Lord Jiang is going too far. He is just playing tricks on us!
If you had told me earlier that you could forge inferior iron weapons, I would have chopped off my hands rather than gamble. You made us happy for nothing!
Blacksmith Qi saw what they were thinking and scolded them with a smile, "Don't look so gloomy here, Lord Jiang can forge iron tools of lower-grade Xuanbing, which shows that his skills have improved. Don't you think you can use the iron tools he made later?"

Several people were startled when they heard this, and then their eyes lit up.

Yes, when Lord Jiang used the first-grade hammer before, they used the middle fourth-grade hammer, and occasionally the upper third-grade hammer.

Now that Lord Jiang's iron hammer has been upgraded to a lower-grade black weapon, it wouldn't be excessive for them to get a few pieces of precious-weapon-grade iron tools, right?

Compared with precious weapons and iron tools, a little bit of silver is nothing!
The blacksmiths were not unhappy at all and quickly came to Jiang Lin, serving him tea and water and handing him a towel.

With a flattering smile on his face, he said, "Master Jiang, when will you give us some soup as a reward?"

"The requirements are not high. I don't want any mysterious weapons. Low-grade spiritual weapons will do. If that's not possible, high-grade treasure weapons will also do."

Blacksmith Qi didn't say anything. He also wanted better iron tools. It was the foundation of a blacksmith's career.

"The quality of the iron I made has indeed improved. It has reached the level that can be used to make precious weapons. But whether you can make such weapons depends on your own abilities. If you have enough abilities, use the iron tools well. If you don't have enough abilities, continue to hone your skills." Jiang Lin said.

Although the blacksmiths were a little disappointed, they cheered up again.

They were all master craftsmen from the Southern Blacksmith Camp. They all had superb skills and were already able to forge fourth-grade weapons with ease.

Now that the quality of iron made by Jiang Lin has improved again, I may have the opportunity to forge precious weapon-grade ironware by myself!

Thinking of this possibility, they became very excited.

To forge a precious weapon is the dream of a blacksmith. Anyone with a little ambition will not miss this opportunity!
Seeing them looking at him eagerly, Jiang Lin smiled and said, "It's too late today. Let's try again tomorrow. There's no rush."

Several blacksmiths nodded repeatedly, not daring to have the slightest thought of disobedience.

"It's time for dinner now. Eat your fill first. Why are you in such a hurry?" said Qi the blacksmith.

Seeing them turning around and preparing to leave, Jiang Lin suddenly said, "Master Qi, wait a moment, I have something to tell you."

Blacksmith Qi stopped walking, turned back, and asked respectfully, "Master Jiang, what do you want?"

Jiang Lin said: "Come here tomorrow to forge iron tools, and I will help you get into the treasure weapon grade then."

Blacksmith Qi was startled, then surprised and delighted: "Master Jiang, are you serious?"

Blacksmith Qi knew his own worth. He was considered above average among many master craftsmen, but definitely not the best.

Moreover, they could only forge middle-fourth-grade weapons before, and now it is impossible to jump four levels to the precious weapon level. Those who can forge upper-third-grade weapons may still be qualified to give it a try.

Now Jiang Lin said he would help him forge precious weapon-grade ironware. How could Qi the blacksmith not be happy?

Just thinking of what Jiang Lin just said, he couldn't help but said anxiously: "Didn't Lord Jiang tell us to try it on our own, and if it doesn't work, we can continue to hone our skills? If you help me forge precious weapons and iron tools, what will others do if they find out?"

Qi the blacksmith is a generous man who always considers the overall situation first.

Jiang Lin said, "When I first came to the Southern Blacksmith Camp, you and Master gave me guidance. Now that my skills have improved, I naturally want some feedback. Who can say that it is not right? If they really have any objections, let them come to me."

"I, Jiang Lin, am not afraid of offending others, but if I can't even take care of those who have done me a favor in the past, then I am not a human being!"

These words brought tears to the eyes of Qi the blacksmith. He wiped his eyes, then took a few steps back and bowed.

"Master Jiang, I appreciate your kindness. Although my skills are not as good as yours, I will never let you be accused of partiality because you are so kind! I will definitely make the precious weapon-grade ironware myself and will never let Master Jiang down!"

Jiang Lin opened his mouth to say something, but Qi the Blacksmith looked up and said, "Master Jiang, it's time to eat."

His eyes were so determined, as if he would smash his head and die in this blacksmith shop if he said one more word.

Jiang Lin was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "In that case, I will wait for Master Qi to personally make your own precious weapon!"

"Of course." Blacksmith Qi smiled. "Back then, my skills were among the best in the Southern Blacksmith Camp."

Jiang Lin understood in his heart that even though he was just an ordinary blacksmith, he still had his own pride in his heart.

What he had just done might make some people happy, but to people like Qi the blacksmith, it would hurt them instead.

Pride is sometimes equal to conceit, but it should never be used on someone like Qi the Blacksmith!
