Myth Beyond Heaven

"By the way, Teacher. There's no lunch break here?" Seeing Tie Shan didn't say anything, Yun Lintian asked. 

"There is." Tie Shan didn't ask about Yun Lintian further. He turned to others and said loudly. "Alright, everyone. That's it for today. You can go back and come again tomorrow."

All the students put their hammers down and prepared to leave. Judging from their expressions, some of them might not come back again tomorrow. After all, they came here to try out in case they could become a forge master and earn a living from it.

"Great God Yun, where are we going to eat?" Fei Mao asked while wiping sweats out of his face.

"Stop calling me that. Just call me by my name directly." Yun Lintian was annoyed.

Fei Mao's eyes lit up and hurriedly said. "Brother Yun. Hehe, I will be your little brother from now on."

Yun Lintian shook his head annoyingly and turned to Tie Shan. "Teacher, is there a way to fix the weapon and promote it to the next level? I have a defective weapon with me. It is said that the forge master had created it when he wasn't skillful enough."

In this world, an excellent Divine-rank weapon was scarce. Yun Lintian didn't think he would find one in the near future. Even if there was one, the price would be insanely high, and he would probably have to compete with a lot of powerful forces, which could lead to the cliche auction plot. So he better try to fix the White Dragon Spear first. Perhaps he could upgrade it to the next rank.

Tie Shan replied in almost an instant. "There is. Usually, a defective weapon is born because the forge master cannot realize the maximum potential of the material. The forge master's technique is coming second. Therefore, whether you can promote or fix it depends on the material. If it is high enough, there will be a room for improvement with a better forge master." He paused for a moment and asked. "Why don't you show it to me?"

Yun Lintian didn't hesitate to take the White Dragon Spear out and handed it to Tie Shan.

"This…" Tie Shan's pupils constricted instantly as he held the spear. His hands visibly trembled, and tears started to form in his eyes.

Yun Lintian looked at Tie Shan strangely and wondered why he had this reaction. He glanced at the White Dragon Spear and recalled the information about it. According to Zhang Yuhuang, the previous owner, this spear was created by the renowned Divine blacksmith Tie Mutian when he was young.

Wait a second. Tie Mutian? Surname Tie? Yun Lintian looked at Tie Shan uncertainly. He wasn't sure if there was a connection between the two. 

Fei Mao was dumbfounded seeing Tie Shan sobbing. What kind of spear was this to make a thousand-year-old man cry? He turned his head to Yun Lintian, asking for a clue, but Yun Lintian remained silent.

"This… where did you get this spear?" Tie Shan asked.

"I got it from Zhang Yuhuang, the eldest miss of the Thunder City's Zhang clan." Yun Lintian replied honestly.

Tie Shan caressed the dragon pattern on the spear's shaft emotionally. His eyes were full of reminiscence. "You must know already that the creator of this spear is Tie Mutian… He's my ancestor."

  "What!?" Fei Mao's jaw dropped in shock. "Tie Mutian? The Divine Blacksmith Tie Mutian?" 

As a descendant of the forge master's clan, Fei Mao couldn't be more familiar with this name. Tie Mutian was a legendary existence, an idol of all forge masters.

Tie Shan nodded his head with a smile. "It's him. Counting the generation, I am his great-grandson." He turned to Yun Lintian and continued. "This spear is the first pseudo-Divine rank weapon he created. The entire spear's shaft was made by the White Meteorite Divine Iron mixing with a divine dragon bone while using one of the sharpest materials, Deep Water White Obsidian, to make the tip. It could only be the pseudo-Divine rank wasn't because my ancestor lacks technique, but the fire wasn't strong enough."

"Fire?" Yun Lintian frowned slightly. He had no idea about this. However, with the knowledge from various novels he had read before, there was something called a strange fire. He wasn't sure whether there was such a thing in this world.

Tie Shan nodded. "That's right. You two probably never heard about the Heaven and Earth Fire before, right?" Seeing they shook their heads, Tie Shan continued. "When the heaven and earth were born, they had produced a kind of fire that later called Heaven and Earth Fire by us. These fires have various characteristics, and some of them possess a spirit just like a heavenly treasure."

"My ancestor had spent his life searching for this Heaven and Earth-Fire, but he was ultimately failed in the end. Although he could produce some genuine Divine-rank artifacts later, he could not break through to the realm beyond that because of this."

"Heaven and Earth Fire…" Fei Mao muttered to himself. He seemed to have heard about it before.

"With Senior Tie Mutian's reputation, it doesn't make sense he can't find one. I guess there should be another reason, right, Teacher?" Yun Lintian refused to believe Tie Mutian couldn't find this Heaven and Earth Fire. After all, several top powerhouses in this world definitely wanted to flatter him with various methods. It shouldn't be a problem for him If Tie Mutian asked them to find a clue about Heaven and Earth Fire. 

Tie Shan nodded his head. "That's because Heaven and Earth Fire don't exist in this Azure World anymore. Someone had taken all of them away a long time ago."

Yun Lintian and Fei Mao had disbelief expressions on their faces. Who on earth was that person?

"If that's the case, this person should be dead by now, right? All the fires should also be left behind somewhere in this world." Yun Lintian expressed his doubt.

Tie Shan was silent for a moment before saying. "What if I tell you there's another world beyond this world?"
