146: Great Elder: Was it the thunder disaster that destroyed Huping Mountain?

“A week has passed, so Xiang Wenyan acquiring the Legacy is drawing near.”

“Earth's Strongest Swordsmith, tsk… Speaking of which, the Jin Ming Sword was made with her help back then.”

“However, I’ve already forged the Jin Ming Sword myself now, so I probably won’t trouble her.”

“Her forging technique and talent are truly strong! Maybe I’ll need her help forging other things in the future…”

After Xiang Wenyan finished reading these short sentences, she stood dumbfounded, her mind blank.

Xiang Wenyan?

Is she talking about me?

I’ll become Earth's Strongest Swordsmith in the future?

The Jin Ming Sword was made with my help?

I… I… I…

Xiang Wenyan felt her heart pound rapidly.

She desperately wanted to tell herself to be rational, that perhaps the Xiang Wenyan mentioned in the diary was just someone with the same name, and not her at all.

But somehow, upon seeing that name and the title “Strongest Swordsmith,” once that thought emerged in her mind, she could no longer suppress it!

She even began to tremble slightly from excitement, and her eyes sparkled.

At this moment, she seemed to see hope!

If the person mentioned in the diary was her, wouldn’t she be able to continue forging works that satisfied her?

The thought filled her with surging emotions.

At the same time, she felt some worry and nervousness, fearing that if this person wasn’t her, all her hopes would be shattered!

She then continued reading the diary content…

“This little girl is probably still confused right now, isn’t she?”

“The omens appearing due to the Spiritual Qi resurgence in various places, and the monsters that emerged after the spiritual energy tide, made her question her hobby, feeling that even if she truly created a satisfying work, it would ultimately still be a mundane item.”

“When we ate together back then, she chatted with us about her past, but I wasn’t listening carefully at the time and don’t remember much.”

“I only know that later, she accidentally lifted a floor tile in her own shop and discovered the Legacy…”

“It is said that her grandfather discovered this Legacy back then, but because the omens of the Spiritual Qi resurgence had not yet begun, the Legacy was not activated. So, he had no choice but to build a blacksmith shop on top of the Legacy to conceal it.”

“However, now that I have Rebirth, the timeline seems to have changed slightly. I don’t know when she will discover the Legacy beneath her shop this time.”

When Xiang Wenyan saw this content, she could almost certainly confirm that the name mentioned inside was her!

Because her blacksmith shop was built by her grandfather!

Her grandfather had passed away when she was very young, and she knew very little about him, rarely hearing her father mention him.

But she never expected that decades ago, her grandfather had already found the Legacy and left it for them!

The thought brought Xiang Wenyan to the verge of tears from excitement…

The hope in her heart ignited, and she no longer needed to be confused.

She quickly wiped away her tears, her eyes gradually becoming resolute.

She decided her goal remained unchanged: to forge a longsword that satisfied her.

But this time, she hoped it would be a spiritual sword that satisfied her the most!

With this thought solidified, Xiang Wenyan rushed towards the blacksmith shop, wanting to see if the Legacy her grandfather had left behind was still there…

Meanwhile, in Chengyang City.

Shi Niang also saw the latest updated content in the diary, and after reading it, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Li Mu is fine, that’s really great…”

She had traveled all the way to Huping Mountain before, but only saw the ruins after the Heavenly Tribulation and the electric arcs that had not yet dissipated in the sky.

Looking at the terrifying scene before her, like a pool of lightning, just feeling the energy of those electric arcs made her heart pound with fear, showing how powerful this Heavenly Tribulation was!

It was precisely because of this that Shi Niang was even more worried about Li Mu’s safety.

Although what she saw in the future stone was that Li Mu had successfully Undergoing Tribulation, he was also very seriously injured.

She wanted to help Li Mu and treat him.

However, when she arrived at the ruins of Huping Mountain, she did not see Li Mu’s figure.

After searching for a long time without success, Shi Niang had no choice but to leave with worry and anxiety.

Now, seeing the diary content updated, along with the diary entries within, finally allowed her to breathe a sigh of relief.

At the same time, a gentle smile appeared on her face, and her eyes seemed to glow…

“The lightning storm on Huping Mountain was actually Li Mu’s Lightning Tribulation?!”

The Grand Elder saw the content in the diary, and the corner of his mouth couldn’t help but twitch slightly.

At that time, he had been wondering what had happened to Huping Mountain!

He thought of many possibilities, but he never expected that it was Li Mu Undergoing Tribulation.

At the same time, the Grand Elder also thought of a question.

That is: If the power of the Heavenly Lightning is already so terrifying at only the third Realm of Refining Spirit to Return to Emptiness, will there also be Lightning Tribulations in the later Realms? Will it be the same during Immortal Ascension?

If that’s the case, then how terrifying will the power of those Heavenly Lightning be at that time?

Can this Earth truly withstand those Heavenly Lightning?

… … … …

However, at this moment, in the Cave Heaven Small World, Li Mu’s smile deepened as he watched Xiang Wenyan’s entire process through the System video.

He then placed the reward he received from Xiang Wenyan, that Artifact Refining Legacy, beneath her family’s blacksmith shop.

As for why Li Mu knew all this, it was naturally because Li Mu had already seen Xiang Wenyan’s detailed information, and had even used Appraisal, understanding Xiang Wenyan’s information in great detail.

He then spent a few fraud points, used the System to imitate a note from her grandfather, and then communicated with the Heaven and Earth Laws, accelerating the entire note’s time by several decades to make it look very old.

After doing all this, Li Mu also placed this note under the stone bricks in the blacksmith shop, with the stone bricks pressing on it.

Once Xiang Wenyan found the Legacy, the moment she lifted the stone bricks, she would inevitably discover the existence of this note!

Li Mu had used this trick on Yang Zheng before, and now he was continuing to use this routine to arrange it for Xiang Wenyan.

Anyway, Xiang Wenyan’s grandfather and parents were already dead, and there was only a brother who occasionally came to visit but had no interest in blacksmithing.

Since there was no one to verify, this trick always worked for Li Mu!

Soon, Li Mu saw through the System video that Xiang Wenyan rushed back into the blacksmith shop.
