Chapter 2362: Treasure Undergoing Tribulation

Seeing Tang Ming take out a giant Medicine Tripod, many people’s faces were filled with surprise.

However, Tang Ming didn’t pay attention to them. Instead, he pulled out a large ladle and began scooping liquid from the east and west into the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod.

Those watching Tang Ming were at a loss, not understanding what he intended to do.

Actually, Tang Ming didn’t plan to use these things to forge Treasure Ore. His real aim was to inject those ores that don’t exist in the Qiankun Nine Palace Realm into it.

Tang Ming was practically cooking soup here, and those who were initially focused on him decisively shifted their gaze to others.

Feng Shendao glanced at Tang Ming, raising his eyebrows with suspicion, feeling Tang Ming was simply stalling for time.

But he had been stalling for quite a while now. Could it be he has so little faith in dealing with the people from the Blood Ancestor Divine Sect?

Boom, boom, boom.

Dadun began crafting quickly, his hammer ceaselessly forging the prepared Treasure Ore.

Dadun was the first Immortal Craftsman to handle the Treasure Ore.

He was eager since Feng Shendao had previously mentioned that the Immortal Artifacts crafted from these Treasure Ores didn’t need to be handed over to the Feng Family and could be kept for himself.

“Have they all begun crafting?”

Tang Ming swept his gaze around, noting that Dadun and three others each had different methods of crafting.

Dadun was strong, with abundant immortal power; thus, during his forging process, he became quite aggressive.

Immortal Energy erupted continuously from his body, making his arms appear transparent.

Inside, the blood flowed rapidly, elevating his Immortal Energy and imbuing him with many traits of the Blood God Plane.

Carl glanced at Dadun, sighing, seeing this approach consumed a lot from Dadun and exposed many features.

This could easily lead people in the Taoyuan World to discover something.

Recalling what Dadun had said before, how those people might have already found out about his identity, Carl thought that this should be impossible.

Earlier, Tang Ming and Feng Shendao had said many bad things about the Blood Ancestor Divine Sect, and if they unveiled his and the young master’s identity, would they still let them participate in the competition?

Or is it that they consider the Divine’s Holy Favored more important than anything else?

Reflecting on the previous Divine’s Holy Favored, Carl took a deep breath, and his gaze fell upon the Treasure Ore before him.

Each person began crafting Treasure Ores.

Seeing no one paying further attention, Tang Ming picked up his three pieces of Treasure Ore and placed them into the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod.

Unlike other ores, these three Treasure Ores had already been placed into the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod before.

Thus, the Qiankun Nine Palace Realm wouldn’t absorb them but instead helped Tang Ming to craft the three Treasure Ores.

Among the five, Tang Ming’s strength was arguably the weakest. Not in terms of combat prowess, but in the richness of immortal power, in which he was slightly inferior to the other four.

Yet, with the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod, these disparities seemed to become insignificant.

A rich fragrance emanated from within the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod, redirecting the attention back from Dadun to Tang Ming.

Breathing out, Tang Ming stared at the gradually animating Treasure Ores.

The Nine-headed Goose Deer informed him that the Treasure Ores had been processed and only the final step of forging remained to achieve a Treasure.

Tang Ming closed his eyes, sitting upright, ladling out some medicine liquid purposely left in the nine large barrels to mix with the refined clay and stone.

“That’s clay and stone.”

Feng Rui standing by Feng Shendao’s side narrowed his eyes.

Tang Ming’s purchasing of clay and stone had spread throughout Source Stone City. Before participating in the Immortal Craftsman contest, many people thought Tang Ming was foolish, yet now, Tang Ming was indeed using clay and stone.

“What, clay and stone?”

Feng Shendao’s voice rose in pitch.

To know that in Source Stone City’s annual raw stone trading, the majority yield is the useless clay and stone.

Even if Tang Ming purchased clay and stone, its price wasn’t high as it was often used for paving roads. Who would pay a high price?

Yet, during crafting treasures, Tang Ming employed clay and stone.

Isn’t this a desecration of a Treasure?

But Tang Ming remained devoted to harmonizing the clay and stone.

The clay and stone quickly formed into a mold in his hands, enclosing a necklace.

“This is a mold created with clay and stone collaborating with Immortal Elixir.”

The eyes of Feng Shendao and many Immortal Craftsmen lit up.

Molds inherently are crafted from soil, and if clay and stone could create effective molds, this was a practical use of clay and stone.

After all, soil is abundant, whereas clay and stone are yielded from raw stones.

Anyone who bought raw stones would have opened many clay and stone.

A flash of brilliance passed, and Tang Ming picked up the items on the clay and stone mold before opening the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod to pour the concentrated essence of the Treasure Ore.

Blue, green, and purple colored ore essences were poured into the mold made from clay and stone by Tang Ming.

Instantly, the clay and stone emitted radiant colors.

The brilliance enveloped the essences, preventing their power from dissipating, gradually solidifying.

Feng Shendao’s pupils contracted as a native of the Immortal Craftsman world, he knew what the hardest part of crafting a Treasure was.

To allow a Treasure Ore’s essence to rapidly consolidate and none of its power to evaporate.

The entire Treasure was completed utilizing the essence from Treasure Ore, with other ores and Immortal Elixir mixed in during prior blending.

Yet, the crafting only involved the entire power of the three Treasure Ores. This method of crafting was unprecedented.

Tang Ming didn’t pick up the Forging Hammer again but took clay and stone to make a lid, slowly covering it over the essence of the Treasure Ore.

This was merely the first step in crafting Treasure Ore; once the ore essence solidified, only then begins the actual crafting.

He closed his eyes swiftly to restore Spiritual Power inside himself and considered the rules of crafting treasures and the angle of the hammer’s descent.

Dadun wasn’t observing anyone else; his crafting had reached its final stage. The Forging Hammer constantly pressed upon the already shaped Treasure Ore, and treasure light continually circulated, releasing beams of brilliance on the Treasure.

The sky began to gather dark clouds, and rumbling thunder was faintly heard above the open-air trading market.

“This is Heavenly Tribulation. Treasures undergo tribulation; Dadun Master’s treasure has succeeded.”

Feng Shendao’s voice echoed over the grandstand, and everyone’s gaze fell on Dadun.
