Douluo: Traveling Through the Universe, Reversing Time and Space

Chapter 353 Master Craftsman Zhenhua Visits in the Dead of Night
Along the way, Shi Yu encountered many abyssal creatures, but he only flashed by in their lives.
A creature from the abyss caught a glimpse of Shi Yu, but by the time it tried to focus and look closely, he had vanished, and it wasn't sure if it had imagined him.
Shi Yu could already see the beams of light shooting from above. Instead of teleporting away, he hid in the space and entered a state of invisibility.
Teleporting directly out might attract attention, as there are quite a few people from the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy here, and he doesn't want them to discover his whereabouts.
He slipped into the space, moving silently, and left the abyss entrance.
When he came out, he felt as if he had seen the light of day again. The abyss plane was dark and gloomy, and it was really too uncomfortable to stay in it.
After coming out, I felt relieved and free.
Moving slowly through the air, he paid close attention to his direction, avoiding directions he deemed extremely dangerous.
There should be quite a few Soul Masters over there, and there might even be some at the pinnacle of power. Going that way would still pose a significant risk of him being exposed.
Even though he was hiding in the space, he wasn't completely undetectable. If he encountered a Limit Douluo, he would definitely be detected unless he remained completely still.
There were powerful members of the Tang Clan in the Blood God Legion, and he didn't want to run into them.
Moving in a relatively safe direction is quite easy to leave the Abyss Battlefield area.
Once they reached a safe location, they appeared and began teleporting repeatedly, quickly moving far away from the area.
In Tian Dou City, Shi Yu, wearing a mask, entered the city silently.
He should still be a wanted criminal by Shrek Academy and Tang Sect. If he shows himself, he will inevitably be besieged by a group of powerful figures.
He needs to cover his face appropriately, even though it might arouse suspicion, it's still better than exposing his face directly.
Having been hidden in the space for too long, I'd like to come out and get some fresh air.
After making inquiries along the way, Shi Yu arrived at the Blacksmith Association in Tian Dou City, where a large crowd had gathered, watching something.
Shi Yu stared at it curiously for a while, and through the discussions of those around him, he roughly understood what was going on.
This is a monthly public forging lecture by the master craftsman Zhenhua, where he shares his forging experience. Many blacksmiths come from far and wide, as attending just one lecture can greatly benefit them.
There were also many people watching the spectacle; although they didn't understand forging, it didn't stop them from enjoying the show.
"I wonder if this public lecture is the same one that Zhenhua was assassinated in the original story," Shi Yu wondered.
It's impossible to be sure. If so, perhaps I could gain Zhenhua's favor by reminding him or directly helping him, which would make it easier for Zhenhua to agree to help me forge the four-word battle armor.
He continued to look, but because of the distance, he couldn't see very clearly, and he wasn't sure who was there.
He watched for over an hour, but the assassination attempt he had imagined didn't happen; it seemed to be just a normal public lecture.
Zhenhua was not assassinated, so he had no opportunity to help.
As the crowd gradually dispersed, Shi Yu followed suit and ordered a sumptuous meal at a nearby restaurant.
He wanted a private room, because given his situation, only a private room could allow him to have a proper meal.
These past few days in the Abyss Plane, I've only been able to survive on the dry rations I have on me, so this rare opportunity to have a meal has put me in a rather good mood.
After finishing my meal, I took out a pen and paper, wrote quite a few words on it, folded it up, paid the bill, and left.
In the evening, Zhenhua returned to his room after a busy day and, as usual, subconsciously reached for a glass of water.
When I got my water glass, I suddenly noticed a folded piece of paper on the table.
His gaze sharpened slightly, and he swiftly released the god-level mech to protect him.
At the same time, he called Makino and asked him to come over immediately.
In less than thirty seconds, Makino appeared in his room, asking with concern, "What's wrong?"

Zhenhua pointed to the paper on the table and frowned, saying, "I don't know when this thing appeared in my room."

"I'm pretty sure this thing wasn't there before I left the room."

Makino also became wary. Zhenhua's room was always heavily guarded, making it impossible for him to enter silently.
Now, someone has managed to sneak in here silently and leave a piece of paper without Zhenhua's knowledge. This is no simple matter.
He carefully sensed the situation in the room, confirming that no one was hiding and also checking whether any bombs had been planted.
There was nothing there; the only extra thing in the room was this piece of paper.
Zhenhua wanted to take a look, but Muye stopped him.
After shaking his head at Zhenhua, Muye picked up the paper himself and slowly unfolded it, being quite careful.
There were no problems after the paper was unfolded, and a few lines of text caught the eyes of Mu Ye and Zhen Hua, making them both startled.
The paper read: I know the predicament you are facing, Master Craftsman. As you get older, your Qi and blood strength are affected, making Heavenly Forging increasingly difficult and reducing the success rate considerably. In the next few years, you may even completely lose your ability to forge. I have a way to help you restore your Qi and blood. If you are interested, just open the window and let me know your attitude.
Their gazes simultaneously fell on the closed window, a specially made window strong enough to withstand an attack from a level 8 artillery shell.
There are many people who want to harm the master craftsman, both from abroad and within the country. If his residence isn't securely and tightly protected, the master craftsman's safety will be difficult to guarantee.
The two slowly approached the window, cautiously peering outside, but after a long time they didn't see anything suspicious.
"Should we open it?" Makino asked Zhenhua for his opinion.
He wasn't quite sure what the person who left the note meant.
Zhenhua thought for a moment and nodded slightly.
He was quite curious about the owner of the note, mainly because the other person had hit the nail on the head regarding his problem. His condition had indeed been deteriorating year by year, and if the other person really had a solution, it wouldn't hurt to risk meeting them.
"I'll do it," Zhenhua wanted to open the window himself, but Muye beat him to it.
Makino opened the window, then stepped back to Zhenhua's side, his gaze sharp and his vigilance palpable.
"You two don't need to be so tense, I mean you no harm," a voice came from behind them, causing them to turn around in a flash.
Mu Ye instinctively released his martial spirit, and nine extraordinary spirit rings appeared, instantly making the atmosphere in the room tense.
Zhenhua's god-level mechs were also on high alert, entering combat readiness.
