I'm not just human!

To be even more precise, the elbows, knuckles, and knees could be replaced with "absolutely cutting copper" instead of "pure white light-traveling silver," which would increase the destructive power of the attack by several times.

Previously, Xia Fa had no choice but to melt all the sacred metal given to him by his second brother, the Paradox Clown, into his right arm. But now, things are different.

Fortunately, the full-body treasures created using the mechanical body-forging method are all replaceable, just like replacing parts on a robot, which is quite convenient.

Upon realizing this, Xia Fa immediately released the black bag, and a secret treasure crafting workshop instantly appeared in the garden.

He bought this at the Gold Pound City in the afternoon; it was quite expensive, but of course, it's very handy to use.

Picking up the shrunken axe, Xia Fa didn't hesitate and threw it, along with the broken handle, into the furnace.

An immense amount of divine power surged forth from his body and poured into the furnace.

With a loud boom, a transparent flame, formed purely from the power of the Outer God, ignited, enveloping the dazzling and brilliantly colored metal axe.

The metal axe immediately began to melt, quickly turning into a pool of colorful molten iron.

In fact, if it were an ordinary god to melt it, it would take at least several years. But Xia Fa knew that the power of the outer god within him was already comparable to the power of his second brother, the Paradox Clown, so the melting was very quick.

With a thought, three streams of gleaming silver molten iron separated from the colorful pool and quickly fell into the quenching tank beside him.

With a whoosh, a large amount of water vapor rose up. This water vapor carried an extremely cold power, and although it had already evaporated, it still froze the surrounding air.

This is a rare material of the Celestial Venerable level called "Deep Sea Frost Abyss Water Essence." It can only be collected bit by bit by Celestial Venerables in the Strange Realm of the Star Spirit World, where there are rules related to "water." Its price is extremely high.

That is why it can be used to cool sacred metals; if you use ordinary water, it wouldn't be enough to evaporate the oceans of an entire planet.

Soon, three lumps of pure white, light-seeking silver, each the size of a water vat, floated up from the steam and landed on the ground nearby.

Although Xia Fa didn't go to see it, he could already feel the flow of the mystical living silver in his blood vessels accelerating wildly, as if it were calling out strongly to the three lumps of pure white light-seeking crystalline silver the size of water tanks.

Even after separating three lumps of pure white, light-emitting crystalline silver the size of water vats, the colorful molten iron transformed from the great axe was only reduced by about one-fifth.

Just as Xia Fa was about to continue smelting, he suddenly exclaimed "Huh!" as if he had discovered something.

Ignoring the heat, he reached into the furnace and grabbed at the molten iron, which was ablaze with vibrant colors.

"This is……!!!"

hot.

Extremely hot.

It felt like grabbing a red-hot coal; even the skin was burned and rolled up, and the muscles in the palm were instantly carbonized.

Even with the powerful regenerative abilities far exceeding those of ordinary gods, enhanced by the [Immortal Creation Opportunity], it was still unable to offset the injuries.

But Xia Fa refused to let go, instead staring at the lump of metal the size of a lychee in his palm as if it were a precious treasure.

This metal seems to possess all the world's most dazzling colors, yet they blend together so perfectly that the overall effect leans towards silver. At first glance, it can make one feel dizzy, yet also as if one's soul has been cleansed.

What's even more surprising is the high temperature that this metal possesses.

This goes beyond the ordinary concept of "temperature." After all, it could burn his entire right arm, including his hand, which had been forged using the "Mechanical Body Forging Method." In the real world, it could probably burn down a star field in an instant.

On the other hand, what surprised Xia Fa was the weight of the metal.

Just by holding this small lump of metal, he felt its weight; it was as heavy as when he was an ordinary person holding a piece of gold.

You should know that with his current strength, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he could easily lift up all the planets in a galaxy, yet he still felt the rather heavy weight of this piece of metal.

Xia Fa was overjoyed and even more certain that he had obtained a rare treasure!

He didn't know how this metal was formed. He hadn't even noticed it when he was smelting Julius's great axe. It wasn't until he burned the axe into a mass of multicolored molten iron and extracted three pieces of pure white, light-seeking silver the size of water tanks that he finally sensed a trace of the metal's aura.

This means that the metal is even naturally capable of shielding perception, avoiding spiritual intuition, and even causing people to subconsciously ignore it. Perhaps even Julius did not discover that such a lump of metal had grown inside his great axe.

"Could it be... because Julius has collected so many sacred metals over the past 30,000 years, all kinds of them, and forcibly melted them together, causing this metal to slowly grow out?"

By now, the metal was slowly cooling down and could no longer burn his palm. Xia Fa played with the lychee-sized lump, becoming more and more delighted with it.

He first flicked his left hand, sending out several streams of divine power that flew into the furnace. In an instant, the large mass of colorful molten iron was completely separated. After cooling, it fell to the ground and turned into more than a dozen pieces of sacred metal the size of water tanks.

These sacred metals range from the whispering secret titanium to the primordial explosion secret uranium. The only regret is that there is only one "Gathering of All Miracles," but since it was originally intended to be melted into the brain, it is barely enough.

After doing all this, Xia Fa finally refocused his attention on the lychee-sized piece of metal he had just obtained.

He held the metal in one hand, closed his eyes slightly, and quickly performed a dream divination.

In an instant, countless images flooded my mind.

Suddenly, the omnipresent "Eternal Error" within every cell of the body stirred, unleashing a vast power that cleansed all these images.

Xiafa immediately realized why, because the images he obtained through divination were almost all related to Julius.

Although he was divining the origin of this small, incredibly mysterious lump of metal, it would inevitably involve Julius, and Julius might even sense it.

In this situation, the "eternal error" within the body acts like an instinctive reaction, actively guiding these divination images in a "wrong" way, so Julius can no longer sense them.

Xia Fa suddenly realized that after he became an Outer God and fully absorbed the Eternal Error, this eternal certificate had become a part of his body. Whenever he encountered danger and the Eternal Error could deal with it, it would naturally trigger an instinctive reaction.

This is like when a small flying insect suddenly hits your eyeball while you're walking down the street; your eyelids will automatically close. It's a subconscious defense mechanism of the body.

Thinking this, Xia Fa looked at the scene he had divined with peace of mind, but immediately, he was stunned.

"Wait, this..."

In the divination image, what should have been Julius was transformed by "Eternal Error" into a pig riding a donkey.

It has to be said that this "erroneous" change is truly ridiculous, especially considering Julius's status as the oldest gold cleaner and his current position as the second most powerful being in the entire universe, making it all the more amusing.

Xia Fa smiled and shook his head, but continued watching anyway.

The first scene depicts Julius, during the height of the extraordinary era, transforming himself into a centaur, a race of demi-humans, and venturing into various mysterious forbidden lands, celestial realms, and even ancient realms, searching for sacred metals.

They even entered the land where time stood still and the promised land within the gray fog of time.

Then, it merged all the sacred metals it had collected bit by bit into its dark gold axe.

The Dark Gold Axe... or rather, the weapon of any Cleaner, is something that comes with the Cleaner's birth; this is information that the extraordinary beings have long known.

However, this does not prevent Gold Cleaners like Julius, who once survived by chance and whose wisdom gradually grew, from learning to further forge their own weapons.

The second scene depicts Julius secretly hunting down extraordinary gods everywhere, including Outer Gods, Celestials, and even the Devas.

After Julius hunted down the extraordinary gods, he also took their treasures or sealed artifacts, melted them down, extracted various sizes of sacred metals, and incorporated them into his own weapons.

The third scene, however, no longer features Julius; only the dark gold axe remains.

The image shows that the thickest part of the dark gold axe is gradually gathering the essence of sacred metal, and a brand new, extraordinary metal is beginning to grow from it.

Finally, after countless years, it grew to the size of a lychee, then stopped growing and never changed again.

"This really is born from sacred metal..."

The dream divination ended there, but Xia Fa began to ponder.

It should be noted that sacred metals were also born after that great event more than 30,000 years ago. In essence, they are supreme treasures imbued with extraordinary power. The largest number were born during that event 30,000 years ago, and afterwards they only grow in veins or strange realms at an extremely slow rate.

In addition, following the major event 30,000 years ago, the Great Old Ones were destroyed by the Nine Great Gods, and the entire universe entered an incomparably prosperous and extraordinary era, which naturally led to an extreme shortage of sacred metals.

After all, even the nine great gods had to search high and low for sacred metals, which shows how rare they were.

On the other hand, after the nine righteous gods had collected enough sacred metals to forge their own sacred treasures, they showed enough magnanimity that they no longer deliberately collected sacred metals—this was naturally to reserve them for the use of the Heavenly Venerable and the extraordinary gods below him.

Not only can extraordinary gods use it, but ordinary extraordinary beings can also use it, whether to absorb it or to create secret treasures. Of course, the prerequisite for absorption is that one must have signed a hegemon-level secret contract.

This situation naturally led to the fact that for over 30,000 years, no one had ever collected more than a dozen pieces of sacred metal the size of water tanks and melted them together like Julius.

In other words, apart from Julius's dark gold axe, there is no other environment where such a miraculous new metal could be born!

At the same time, even the nine great gods did not know that when enough sacred metals were collected together, over time an even more powerful and potent metal would be born!

"I've really hit the jackpot..."

Xia Fa held the heavy, brand-new metal in his palm and nodded in satisfaction.

"How about we just call it God King Metal, which corresponds perfectly to Sacred Metal..."

Since it was a completely new discovery, he named it immediately.

"I wonder if we'll be able to find any more God-King Metal in other places in the future. This is a bit too little..."

Xia Fa sighed. This little bit wasn't even enough to forge an outer mystical treasure. He couldn't possibly forge a treasure now; he had to become a true god first. Only then could he forge a true mystical treasure.

However, even if a true divine treasure were crafted using such an incredibly powerful divine king metal, the worst it would be the size of a watermelon. This size of a lychee is simply too small.

However, Xia Fa vaguely believed that as long as he was willing to delve into the depths of the Star Spirit Starry Sky or enter the Time Mist, he might be able to find a large vein of fused sacred metals somewhere, and discover more God King metals from it.

By then, that should be enough.

However, the probability is extremely low. After all, for over 30,000 years, neither the nine great gods nor Julius have ever discovered God-King Metal, nor even known of the existence of such a rare treasure. This shows just how difficult it is.

"If only I could find a piece of God-King Metal the size of a watermelon, I could even forge my own exclusive sacred treasure..."

Xia Fa shook his head with a sigh, feeling quite regretful.

But just then, my brain suddenly throbbed with pain.

It was an incredibly intense pain, as if someone had ripped a piece of flesh from the brain or torn off a blood vessel.

Before Xia Fa could react, the pain vanished instantly.

Immediately afterwards, he was surprised to find that at the boundary between his mental body and his astral body... the hegemonic-level secret contract "Forge of All Things" that he had just signed actually flew out on its own and was hovering not far in front of him!

"This……"

Xia Faren was dumbfounded. In the past month or so, he had signed so many top-level secret contracts, and this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

However, not only did his spiritual intuition not raise any warnings of danger, but his status also did not decline. In fact, with a thought, he discovered that he could still use the two secret abilities of the Forge of All Things: "Myriad Machines Forging" and "Cosmic Furnace".

This means that although the All Things Forging Furnace, a supreme-level secret contract, flew out of his body on its own, it did not truly leave him.

So, what exactly happened?

Xia Fa was puzzled, but then he saw countless secret texts suddenly emerge from the All Things Forging Furnace floating in the air.

As these secret texts emerged, Xia Fa suddenly felt his "Cosmic Furnace" secret ability start operating wildly on its own, and in just a moment, it drained his Outer God power.

Keep in mind that his Outer God power was now so immense that it was comparable to his second brother, the Paradox Joker, yet it was still completely exhausted in an instant!

Those secret texts, all of them being the secret texts of the All Things Forging Furnace itself, numbering in the thousands or tens of thousands, all surged into his palm at this moment.

Suddenly, Xia Fa sensed something and opened his palm. The lychee-sized piece of divine metal in his palm indeed flew up on its own, spinning in the air and absorbing all the incoming runes.
