Sixty years of blacksmithing, a single hammer blow forging a celestial being.

Seeing Li Ping'an's conflicted expression, Zhao Tiezhu quickly said something.

"Uncle Li, don't worry about it. Very few people can actually lift that black hammer. If you can't, I recommend buying this whisk and pairing it with the Six Yang Divine Skill as your cultivation method. It's quite powerful, and the total price should be around ten thousand spirit stones. What do you think?"

As he was speaking, he saw Li Ping'an reach out to grasp the hammer handle again.

I couldn't help but sigh inwardly. It seems the old man still won't give up!

This hammer weighs over 10,000 jin (approximately 5,000 kg). Not to mention Grandpa Li, even if a Core Formation cultivator came, few people could lift it.

However, the next second, something happened that left him speechless.

Li Ping'an slowly lifted the hammer, his expression calm and collected, as if he hadn't exerted any effort at all.

Zhao Tiezhu was dumbfounded; his mouth almost dropped to the ground.

What did he see?

How could Li Ping'an pick up the hammer so easily?

You should know that this hammer has been in Wanbaoge for several years, and in those years he has only seen two people pick it up.

One was a burly man at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, who followed the path of physical cultivation and possessed immense strength.

Even so, he had to use all his strength to barely lift the hammer a little bit.

Another powerful figure, a Core Formation stage cultivator, used his Qi to control his strength and spiritual power to lift the hammer.

But Li Ping'an picked it up so easily, as if it were effortless.

Could it be that Grandpa Li is actually a Foundation Establishment or even Core Formation cultivator?

In an instant, Zhao Tiezhu's gaze towards Li Ping'an changed.

At this moment, Li Ping'an was also shocked.

Just now, the Heaven-Forging Hammer inside his body kept trembling, as if guiding him to pick up the hammer.

He tried lifting the hammer again, just to give it a shot, and to his surprise, he actually succeeded.

Moreover, he weighed the black hammer in his hand and felt that it didn't seem very heavy at the moment.

It's only somewhat heavy; at most, it's just a solid iron rod.

He swung the hammer in the air, and a strong gust of wind suddenly blew, as if even the surrounding air was distorted.

Imagine how terrifying the force must be if a hammer weighing over 10,000 pounds is swung so easily.

Zhao Tiezhu, who was standing to the side, was so frightened that he was scared out of his wits.

Even a light touch from that hammer would probably have caused him to vomit blood and die.

He quickly said,

"Sir, please don't do that! There are too many people in Wanbaoge. Please don't swing that hammer around!"

However, many guests also witnessed this scene and were quite shocked.

Some of the regular customers who frequented Wanbaoge also recognized the black hammer and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"My God, isn't that the Xuan Tie Hammer, supposedly forged from meteorite iron from outer space? I heard it weighs over ten thousand jin (5,000 kg), and very few people can lift it. I never expected this old man to actually lift it!"

"Yes, he looks like he's doing it effortlessly. Really? Who is this old man? How can he possess such power?"

For a moment, gasps and exclamations of amazement filled the air.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman with beautiful eyes was also watching this scene from the upper floor.

When he saw Li Ping'an clearly, his expression immediately hardened. This seemed to be the Taoist priest who had sold him the third-tier mental cultivation pills before.

She immediately took light, graceful steps and slowly descended the stairs.

At this moment, Li Ping'an slowly put down the black hammer, having already made up his mind.

Zhao Tiezhu asked,

"I'll take this hammer."

Zhao Tiezhu was still in shock when Li Ping'an said the second sentence, at which point he suddenly realized what was happening.

"Alright, alright! Okay, Uncle Li, I won't wrap this hammer for you. You can just take it with you and pay at the front desk."

Li Pingan nodded and said,

"Can you recommend a suitable technique for this hammer?"

Zhao Tiezhu pondered for a moment upon hearing this, but before he could speak, he heard a clear female voice from behind him.

"Taoist Master, if you wish to practice martial arts using this black hammer, I recommend the Chaotic Hammer Technique."

"The Chaotic Hammering Technique?"

Upon hearing this, Li Ping'an turned his head and saw that the person who came was extremely beautiful and exuded a mature charm.

It was the owner of Wanbaoge, whom I had met once before.

"So it's the Pavilion Master."

Li Ping'an quickly clasped his hands in a gesture of respect.

The head of the Wanbaoge Pavilion returned the greeting and said...

"Master, are you here again today to buy ritual implements?"

"Yes, I'm quite satisfied with this black hammer and I'm planning to buy it. Could you give me a discount or something, Master?"

The pavilion master smiled slightly and said,

"This black hammer has been in my Wanbao Pavilion for several years, but it has never found its true owner. Today, however, it has finally met its true owner. Since you are so eager to own it, I will offer you a discount; I can sell it to you for five thousand spirit stones."

"Five thousand spirit stones?"

Li Ping'an was delighted when he heard the price.

You should know that this is a high-grade Xuan-level magic weapon. Magic weapons of the same grade are worth tens of thousands.

He actually sold it to me for only 5,000 spirit stones, wouldn't that be a huge profit?

He immediately clasped his hands in thanks and said...

"In that case, thank you very much for the discount, Pavilion Master. Also, please let me take a look at the Chaotic Hammer Technique you just mentioned."

The pavilion master nodded slightly.

Zhao Tiezhu, with his sharp eyes, quickly ran into the martial arts area.

He took a cultivation manual and handed it to Li Ping'an.

"Grandpa, look, this is the Chaotic Hammering Technique, a spell with a long history."

"Legend has it that it comes from an ancient hammer sect from many years ago. This sect used to make a living by forging iron. Later, the sect leader actually developed this kind of cultivation technique, which resulted in the entire sect suddenly becoming extremely powerful and even dominating half of the cultivation world."

"Is it that amazing?"

Li Ping'an's eyes lit up as he listened to Zhao Tiezhu's eloquent speech.

If he's really that good, then his hammer technique isn't bad either.

"How many spirit stones?"

Zhao Tiezhu hesitated slightly before speaking.

"This cultivation technique is a Xuan-rank technique. If you want it, it will cost six thousand spirit stones."

"What? Six thousand spirit stones!"

Upon hearing this, Li Ping'an was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.

This is more expensive than the hammer in his hand.

What kind of cultivation technique is this that costs so much?

He turned to the pavilion master and asked.

"Master, I'll take both of these items. Could you give me another discount?"

The owner of Wanbaoge smiled slightly, her beautiful eyes full of mockery.

He then said,

"Daoist Master, if you want it, you can take it for ten thousand spirit stones at once."

Ten thousand spirit stones.

Li Pingan hesitated for a moment.

Currently, both the Black Hammer and the Chaotic Hammer Technique appear to be top-tier items.

If I can master it and cultivate it, my strength will probably increase by more than just one or two levels.

It can be said that he has almost no rivals below the Foundation Establishment stage.

"Okay, I'll take it."

In the end, Li Ping'an made a decision and acquired the two priceless cultivation techniques and weapons.
