Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang finished dealing with the assassin set out to hunt him and then turned around to leave for the black rock mountains. Lady Yao observed him and she sensed nothing from him and asked, "You don't wish to take revenge on the Situ family?"

Shi Lang shook his head and he replied, "I will do it when I am strong enough. At the moment kill one Dao King who does not know what he is facing is my limit. Only when I am strong enough will I go back and level the score with the enemies, before that, just getting stronger is my goal."

Lady Yao sensed how stable his thoughts were and nodded. The two people moved forward and After a day they reached the Black Rock Mountains. This place was named very simply, the entire landscape seemed to have been made from obsidian growing wild from the ground.

Shi Lang and Lady Yao stopped at a distance and the Terran said, "I see the city before me, I will go there on foot."

Lady Yao nodded and Shi Lang landed on the ground. He then treaded the way using his light movement and combining with space Dao laws. Lady Yao sighed and shook her head in the void, "This cultivation maniac, who knows when he would come up and develop a new move."

Ten Minutes later. Shi Lang was standing at the door of the city and what shocked him was the fact that a giant human was standing their with a huge halberd.

The giant was nine feet tall, he lowered his head and looked at Shi Lang as he asked, "Kid, why are you here?"

Shi Lang was surprised and said, "I came here to practice the art of forging alongside the dwarf masters."

He then clenched his fist and the giant narrowed his gaze as he said, "This is not the place where your race could continue. Leave."

Shi Lang did not even get the time to reel from the shock that the person before him was addressing himself as a dwarf, when the person even issued the decree of eviction.

Shi Lang cupped his fist and said, "Brother, I will not practice for the sake of selling weapons, but to comprehend Dao."

The giant frowned and looked down at the man before him. After some time he said, "To enter the city, you must pay a tax, but if you wish to go in for the purpose of forging, you should take the forging test and produce a high grade spirit weapon."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "I agree, please show me to a forging room."

The giant took a step to the side, and stomped the shaft of his halberd to the ground. The ground shook and the door opened slowly. Shi Lang saw a city bustling with activity and a lot of hammering sounds filled the air. The city seemed to have a strong isolation barrier surrounding himself.

The young man took a deep breath and the giant said, "Follow me, and do not wander or you will be resented to death by my people."

Shi Lang nodded and then walked inside the city behind the big man. The city was made of stone houses, and the layout of the place was something that put the entire immortal world to shame. Shi Lang could see plumbing, and underground transport roads. These things were very crudely implemented in the other cities Shi Lang had been to.

The giant brought him to the side room, a place where a forge was set up. It was not much, but Shi Lang did not mind.

He took a look around and found many metals placed around on different shelves. The Giant said, "You can use the metals, but if you fail the refining you will have to pay for them."

Shi Lang nodded and then after a few minutes, he decided to make a sword. He did not wish to be too wild with this test. He set up the forge and then he began to smelt the metals slowly. The speed allowed him to remove more impurities.

This build was not much of a task for Shi Lang, but he was a cautious person by nature. After two hours he finished the sword and used a technique to inscribe spirit energy channels for the energy to travel smoothly inside. He did not use any fancy materials but this sword made by using common materials was as good as a high level immortal weapon.

This also happened to be the highest level that Shi Lang could refine at the moment, he had yet to try infusing Dao Laws in the weapons to increase their attack power.

The giant took hold of the weapon and snorted, "Even a toddle can refine this here, and given the time you took, it probably is the best that you can do."

Shi Lang put on a wry smile and the giant said, "The rules are rule, go in and practice, you better not show up in front of me before you manage to learn how to craft Dao Armaments."

That said the nine feet tall man walked away. Shi Lang really disliked the difference in the size but he had no choice other than bearing with it. Once he passed the threshold, he found that the place was filled with many humans but none of them seemed to be forging experts.

On the other hand, in the center of the city, there was a tall pillar made of black rock. Shi Lang walked up to it and heard someone say, "You don't even know what the Heaven Forging Pillar is? This is an artifact that was refined by the ancestors of the Dwarves, the stronger the forger the higher and deeper their name will be engraved on the list.

None of the human masters have ever been able to leave a name there."

The person next to him asked, "What do you mean they have never been able to leave a name?"

In return his friend replied, "The human masters have yet to master the infusion of Dao Laws, this is why they do not come here. I am a human but I feel ashamed at times when I do not see them competing real hard. I wish I can see one human master leave their name here, even if it is just scratch."

Shi Lang understood the difference between the humans and the dwarves when it came to forging from this pillar. He took a deep breath and clenched his fists. The pillar ignited his fighting spirit. He turned around and left to make preparations for his practice.
