In these following days, Chen Yun was accompanying the Black Saber Mercenaries in order to appease their anger.
In the third day, he left the residence early in the morning and headed directly to the ‘Heavenly Great Hammer’ where Blacksmith Orozco was working at.
He quickly entered and looked for Chuna Yuan before heading directly to the third floor where Blacksmith Orozco was.
Clang Clang Clang!
As usual, clanging sounds echoed out inside the room, and a person was hammering something at the anvil.
When Chen Yun saw the thing he was hammering, his eyes lit up. Because it was a pair of bracers, he then walked but blocked by Chuna Yuan, Chen Yun looked at him felt puzzled but Chuna Yuan shook his head indicating that they needed to wait for Blacksmith Orozco finish his work like last time in order for him not to be distracted.
Peng! Shiing!
But they did not wait much longer because Blacksmith Orozco stopped his hammering as the bracer glows fervently with different colors. Blacksmith Orozco’s eyes were gleaming that it turns into zealotry.
“HAHA…HAHAHAHHA!” Blacksmith Orozco suddenly laughed uproariously shaking the whole third floor.
His laughter lasts for three breaths of time before he stopped.
Clap Clap Clap!
Clapping sounds woke Blacksmith Orozco from his indulged self towards the item in front of him.
“Oh, it’s you!” Blacksmith Orozco smiled.
“You seem so happy today, what have you discovered?” Chen Yun asked.
“I have a very interesting discovery! But before that, I will prepare first all the things.” Blacksmith Orozco said.
…
Chen Yun was sent in a room somewhere inside the third floor.
He thought that this was the office of Blacksmith Orozco or something like that.
Right now, he was waiting for his items to be retrieved; Blacksmith Orozco indeed met his promise that in three days he can finish all the items, he’s really a freak.
Creak~
The door opens, and a bulky singed brows man appears. It was Blacksmith Orozco while carrying the items Chen Yun had requested.
He sat on a chair in front of Chen Yun and placed the items on the table between them.
“These are the items you requested.” Blacksmith Orozco said with a hint of happiness.
“What did you discover?” Chen Yun didn’t reply but asked.
“Do you really want to know?” Blacksmith Orozco suddenly smiled.
“Yes I would, It’s my weapon after all.” Chen Yun answered.
But the smile on Blacksmith Orozco’s face grew wider.
“Your weapon was a growth type item….” Blacksmith Orozco mysteriously replied.
“……”
Silence fell in the room. But Blacksmith Orozco’s wide smile didn’t falter and he didn’t mind the silence as he anticipates the reaction of Chen Yun.
An incense stick to burn before Chen Yun replied that made Blacksmith Orozco baffled that he almost fell from his chair that he was sitting upon.
“What is a growth type item?”
“!#@$!”
Slam!
Blacksmith Orozco slammed the table and the items abruptly jump off from the impact while he breathed heavily.
“Y-you don’t know what is growth type item?” Blacksmith Orozco said with a hint of anger deep in his voice.
“Yes, I don’t know because nobody told me. I only knew the level of each weapon and its strength may vary from the user’s strength in each realm, but if the user was only at the earthen realm and the weapon was at the horizon realm only 10% of its power will be unleashed with a backlash from the user.” Chen Yun replied calmly.
“Okay, I get it.” Blacksmith Orozco scratched his head but he cools himself down.
“A growth type weapon was a type that can grow with the user’s cultivation level, but in the case of your weapon was different.” Blacksmith Orozco explained.
“What was different?” Chen Yun couldn’t help but asked him.
Smirk~

Blacksmith Orozco smirked at Chen Yun as if telling him ‘It’s a payback!’
“Please tell me Blacksmith Orozco” Chen Yun could only act that he was intrigued but indeed he was really hooked about this topic but he kept acting cool, when he saw the wide smile of Blacksmith Orozco he felt irritated that is why he asked as if he was not shocked.
Blacksmith Orozco didn’t know what Chen Yun was thinking, thus he continued.
“Your pair of gloves was only owned recently right?” Blacksmith Orozco asked.
“How did you know?” Chen Yun questioned.
“It’s because those pair of gloves was already at the peak of Earthen Realm while you were only at the Second Rank of Earthen Realm!” He answered.
“What?” Chen Yun was now really shocked without any falsehood.
“Don’t tell me, that Shamo Huangye was at the peak of Earthen Realm!” Chen Yun thought.
:”Yes, that is why it didn’t resonate or give any special attribute that can boost your fighting capabilities but only increases your comprehension. But if you reach the peak of Earthen Realm, it will unlock its ability.” Blacksmith Orozco answered.
“Then, do you know what its ability is?” Chen Yun asked.
Blacksmith Orozco didn’t answer or smiled widely but a serious expression was on his face.
A heavy atmosphere suddenly appeared inside the room.
“I can’t tell you about that, you will need to uncover it yourself or else it will be spoiled.” He said mysteriously.
…
Chen Yun left the building with a daze expression while carrying the items at his hands.
Screech!
Chen Yun wakes up from his daze state, then he looked up to the sky and saw a flying beast who screeched recently, it has a black feather and his wings spans twenty meters, its talons was like a claws of death that was an inky black in color as its neck was surrounded by a frill of white feathers. It was Inky Death Talon Condor, an Earthen Realm demonic beast. Any demonic beast that has a demonic core can cultivate like a human.
Above the Inky Death Talon Condor was a person standing, she wore white daoist robe that sways gently like the slowly moving clouds in the sky, her black shiny hair that reaches the back of her waist was tied into a pony tail while on each side of her waist was strapped of black and white sheathed swords. She was standing proudly and aloof, though Chen Yun can only see her back he thinks that she was so beautiful.
“Wow! An Inky Death Talon Condor! Who might be the owner of that demonic beast?” someone said.
“It was a girl…”
“She’s…”
Many people talked about the flying beast but he filtered them out and walks away from the crowds of people as he looks at the pair of gloves with a pair of bracers. His eyes gleamed excitedly but he controlled himself as he stuffed all the items in his bosoms and headed directly to the nearby mountain which was not far from the residence of old merchant Olaf’s.
The outline of Blazing Spear City was a circular form, in the middle was the pointing spear that sunders the skies, the enormous spear was surrounded by the City Lord, two clans and two sects while another two unoccupied places which was forbidden place for a practitioner below the Earthen Realm.
At the north was the Mo Clan. In the north east was the Yan Clan, while in the east was the City Lord’s Mansion, south east was the Blazing Spear Sect and the south was the forbidden place which was named Shadow River, it will suddenly shrouded with darkness when someone enters and when the time darkness were gone a skeletal bodies will be remained in the river floating adrift. The south-west was the tyrant Dragon Spear Sect and the last was the forbidden place that occupies the west and the north-west it was named the Earth Shaking Mountain Range, because the mountain from time to time will suddenly shake as if there was a sleeping dragon underneath the mountain range, though it was shaking, no sounds where resonating only the cries of the flying beast leaving the mountain grounds.
The mountains were also a training ground at the Earthen Realm disciples of the two sects that sometimes may inflict bloody battles when they meet, though the people in the Blazing Spear Sect was low-key it didn’t mean that their disciples were not a hot-blooded one.
Though the Earth Shaking Mountain Range was forbidden below the Earthen Realm, when one enters further inside the level of danger rose as the demonic beasts will appear at the Middle Rank of Earthen Realm to the Peak of Earthen Realm that three to five practitioners were needed to fight off one of the demonic beasts.
The most common demonic beast that will appear inside the Earth Shaking Mountain Range was the Swift Black Wolf and were ferocious when the night comes, many people will not sleep in the mountain range because these demonic beast was like an assassin that adeptly camouflage in the surrounding darkness and was swift on killing their prey, but when it was day they were like an easy prey for the cultivators because no matter how swift they are their claws was only used for assassinating an enemy on their vital points but if someone can predict and block the incoming attack, it can be easily beat down with their weak physiques.
…
Chen Yun reached the feet of Earth Shaking Mountain Range, the atmosphere was cool and refreshing but the surrounding area in an entrance was attached many different kinds of posters that warns all the people who want to enter the mountain range that will not rashly hunts inside because of the great dangers that even the middle and peak level of Earthen Realm will not be spared if they will go alone.
But Chen Yun didn’t heed any of these warnings because he just wants to test his pair of gloves and the pair of bracers. He didn’t want to have any commotion inside the old merchant’s residence and he don’t want to be seen by those people whom he tricked and act as if trying to appease their anger though it was already appeased.
Right now he was wearing the pair of gloves that didn’t resemble from what the gloves look like, because it was now silvery in color with no hint of rust from it, the gauntlets was made of fine silver essence which can be channeled elemental energy but as Blacksmith Orozco said, because he has a growth type gauntlets, no matter how many times he channels his elemental energy it will not glow and he can only gathers his elemental energy outside form it that will surround the gauntlets to amplify his explosive attacks.
The knuckles down towards the finger’s middle part of the gauntlets were his Forming Stage ethereal state which was a roaring tiger but other than this there are no additional parts added like the turtle’s shell or the vermillion’s wings. But he was already satisfied that it was not fully repaired.
The enhancement that can increase his comprehension was still there but he feels that there was something more that he needed time to explore as what Blacksmith Orozco said, he felt that this blacksmith was rather mysterious and was an impeccable in creating miraculous items. He even attached something of the gauntlet which was much more ferocious to look and overbearing presence to it.
But what makes him excited was the newly made bracers which were clearly fitted with the pair of gauntlets of his hands, when he wears it before the gloves he felt comfortable. There us a clicking sound was heard as if something was linked with each other when he wore the pair of gauntlets and he saw that the gauntlets and the bracers was connected as one. As if they were already one body in the first place.
The bracers were a contrast that the gauntlets in terms on what it were made of. The bracers were only made of simple leather that made him puzzled a bit but when he wears it he understood quickly that it can increase his attack speed. If it was made up of metal it can only hinders his maneuverability of his hands that was way slower than his normal attacking speed.
He didn’t dally any further and slowly walks towards the entrance.
“Hey! Young lad! Are you going inside the Earth Shaking Mountain Range?” Someone said.
