Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law-Chapter 765 - 764: Polar Hammering Technique
Everyone was in astonishment. Had this guy really just finished forging his handprints and started hammering after resting for less than an hour?
Wasn’t that too quick? Could it be that he had truly recovered.
"Haha, he must be doing this deliberately to attract attention. He simply can’t forge that many inscriptions, so he’s resorting to this method to gain a good reputation," Chi Yun said with a laugh.
The crowd around nodded in agreement, realizing that it was indeed the case.
It seemed Xu Ping’an never intended to forge that many inscriptions from the start.
He forcibly condensed so many handprints solely to gain a good reputation.
In the end, he would use the excuse of his soul power not being fully recovered to absolve himself.
"Alas, why did he give up after getting off to such a good start? How great it would have been if he could truly make it," the Fifth Elder said with a sigh.
"But this is a very difficult task. Since neither you nor I can achieve it, why should we force it upon him?" the Fourth Elder added.
The brows of the other Great Elders were also tightly knitted, obviously feeling disappointed by Xu Ping’an’s actions.
"It’s not over yet. The outcome remains uncertain. Do not rush to conclusions," the Great Elder said in a cold voice.
The other elders fell silent, though deep down they were pretty certain Xu Ping’an couldn’t complete the forging.
Even the Great Elder himself wasn’t feeling confident.

His gaze heavily settled on Xu Ping’an.
At this moment, Xu Ping’an was ignoring the gazes from the crowd and was focusing wholeheartedly on condensing the Soul Hammer.
That’s right, he didn’t have a hammer-like weapon, so he had to continue using the Soul Hammer.
But this time, Xu Ping’an was not condensing two Soul Hammers but only one.
"Just one Soul Hammer? He used to use two when forging before. Has he really given up?" someone in the crowd asked.
Others also sighed. It seemed Xu Ping’an had indeed decided to give up.
Ji Zhong saw this scene and smiled smugly.
So in the end, he was still the first. What did it matter how many handprints he condensed if he couldn’t succeed in forging? It was all in vain.
"Haha, Xu Ping’an, your Chaotic Flame is mine now," Chi Yun laughed triumphantly.
Dongfang Qingxue’s brows furrowed, a hint of confusion in her eyes.
The forging method she and Xu Ping’an used was the same. His previous double hammer overlay had seemed incredibly ingenious to her.
Because the alternating blows of the dual hammers left almost no gap, this forging technique felt like the pinnacle to her.
What did it mean for Xu Ping’an to give up now?
Could it really be that he had no intention of completing the forging process?
Dongfang Qingxue felt disappointed in her heart as well.
The Great Elder on the stage also shook his head in disappointment. He had originally believed Xu Ping’an might create a miracle, but now it seemed he had thought too highly of him.
"Boom!"
However, when Xu Ping’an’s first sound of forging rang out, the Great Elder jumped up from his chair instantly.
"How is this possible?" The Great Elder’s face showed an extremely shocked expression.
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible." Dongfang Qingxue was also full of incredulity, standing still as if struck by thunder.
The rest wore faces of bewilderment, not understanding what had happened.
Even the other Great Elders looked on with confusion.
"Clang!"
But when the second sound of Xu Ping’an’s hammer landed,
The expressions of the other Great Elders completely changed as well, becoming filled with shock.
"This... This is a hundred and sixty-two layers, how is this possible?" the Great Supreme Second Elder exclaimed in surprise.
"Indeed, it is a hundred and sixty-two layers. I could discern the superimposed hammering sounds within that one hammer blow," the Great Supreme Elder stated.
"Doesn’t that mean he has created an entirely new forging method, and it’s the supreme Divine Forging Technique?" the Great Supreme Third Elder said.
"It truly counts as Divine Forging. Such a forging method has surpassed our Refining Alliance and can compare to the heritage of some Divine Artifact Refiners," the Great Supreme Elder nodded and replied.
His gaze towards Xu Ping’an was filled with even greater disbelief.
If he didn’t know that the forging method Xu Ping’an had used was created by the former Heaven Immortal Emperor, he would’ve certainly believed Xu Ping’an had received some powerful divine heritage.
However, what Xu Ping’an now displayed was even more terrifying than a divine heritage; he had created a Divine Forging Technique himself. What an appalling talent.
Dongfang Qingxue at this moment was also incomparably shocked.
Could it be that the very problem the former Immortal Emperor hadn’t solved was now resolved by the man before her, Qin Feng?
Qin Feng was how old, not even twenty, right?
At such an age, to possess such fearsome artifact refining strength and talent, is there really such a monstrous figure in this world?
In this moment, Dongfang Qingxue was profoundly awestruck by Xu Ping’an’s artifact refining prowess.
Listening to the successive sounds of Xu Ping’an’s hammering, Dongfang Qingxue’s eyes were full of admiration when she looked at him.
"It’s just forging, what’s there to be shocked about? If he cannot complete the final forging, he’s still useless," Chi Yun said disdainfully, failing to grasp the significance of the forging method Xu Ping’an had displayed.
"Idiot!"
However, as soon as Chi Yun’s words fell, he was met with a fierce rolling of the eyes from Dongfang Qingxue.
Chi Yun instantly flew into a rage; Dongfang Qingxue was his fiancée, yet now she was calling him an idiot over another man?
"Damn it, you treacherous woman, once I’ve married you, I’ll see how I’ll torment you," Chi Yun roared in anger.
"You won’t have the chance because I would rather die than marry you," Dongfang Qingxue said disdainfully.
"If not me, then whom do you wish to marry? Could it be that you truly want to marry this Qin Feng?" asked Chi Yun furiously.
"No, I’m not worthy of him. No one can match his talent; compared to him, you’re nothing but a piece of shit," Dongfang Qingxue did not mince her words, speaking straightforwardly.
Chi Yun’s fists clenched tightly, his eyes filled with endless rage.
Others were surprised at Dongfang Qingxue’s words.
Dongfang Qingxue actually said she wasn’t worthy of Qin Feng?
Is Qin Feng truly so heaven-defying?
Yao Feifei was also surprised by this scene at the moment.
She naturally also sensed the extraordinariness of Xu Ping’an’s forging method.
In fact, anyone with eyes could see how terrifying this forging method was.
Because Xu Ping’an was inscribing one rune with each hammer strike, and now, after ten strikes, he had already completed the forging of ten runes.
What kind of speed is that?
If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, Yao Feifei would have never believed that such a horrifying forging method existed.
Even the immensely proud Yao Feifei was thoroughly convinced at this point.
However, Ji Zhong clenched his fists, his eyes brimming with deep jealousy.
All of it should have been his; all these things should have belonged to him.
This person must die!
Ji Zhong’s heart surged with an intense murderous intent.
As time passed, Xu Ping’an continued hammering.
In just half a day, Xu Ping’an had already completed the forging of no less than ninety runes.
At this moment, Xu Ping’an had begun forging the ninety-first one.
