Five days later, Gengxin City.
The Blacksmith Association.
The air was filled with the scent of burning coals, and the sounds of hammers clanging echoed everywhere, like a symphony of metal striking metal.
A group of muscular, dark-skinned men watched from a distance, their eyes fixed on a child surrounded by a crowd ahead.
At this moment, the child's actions had everyone watching wide-eyed, mouths agape.
"A monster…"
"Is he really only six years old?"
"We tested the weight of that hammer last time. Even a Soul Elder would need to release soul power to lift it."
"But this child… this child doesn't even seem to be using soul power!"
The child described by everyone stood bare-chested, wearing a delicate black half-mask on his face. He swung the hammer again and again, the clashing of metal deafening.
The astonishing thing was that the hammer he wielded was almost as tall as he was, yet in his hands, it seemed weightless. He twirled it effortlessly in the air, showcasing the violent beauty of strength in full display.
"That's Chi Xiu. He's the one who split the meteor stone."
A deep voice spoke as Lou Gao slowly walked over to the dark-skinned men.
"President!"
Lou Gao gazed at Chi Xiu and sighed deeply.
"This child's future achievements are incalculable. Chen Xin really lost big this time… lost big…"
"What's the relationship between this child and Chen Xin Mianxia?" asked a few curious blacksmiths.
Lou Gao laughed. "Five days ago, all the major sects wanted to meet this child, but he directly refused to meet anyone—only I was allowed to see him. Even that old Chen Xin was refused at the door. Hahaha…"
Lou Gao was particularly proud as he spoke. Especially when he thought of Chen Xin being turned away at the door—the look of defeat on him was especially satisfying!
But Lou Gao was now certain: this child's talent surpassed even Chen Xin, and his future achievements would far outstrip Chen Xin's.
...
"All done!"
"Phew~"
Chi Xiu slammed down the last strike and finally set the massive hammer aside. The watching blacksmiths applauded in admiration, and even Lou Gao a short distance away clapped along.
Chi Xiu smiled shyly. He had originally only been helping an uncle blacksmith hammer a metal block, but as he worked, more and more blacksmiths gathered around. Their expressions looked like they had just seen a ghost.
...
Five days ago, in a conversation with Lou Gao, Chi Xiu had learned another function of the meteor stone.
The meteor stone was not only indestructible but could also conceal one's aura to the greatest extent.
At that time, Chi Xiu thought: why not have Lou Gao make a mask that hides his aura and give it to him?
Over these days, he already knew that Bibi Dong was searching for him everywhere.
Bibi Dong remembered his appearance and might even be familiar with his aura, but wearing the mask would avoid much trouble.
Bibi Dong was only the first; in the future, he might attract more women.
During these five days, Chi Xiu also gained a lot from his daily sleep: though his first-level soul power had not increased, he obtained a priceless ten-thousand-year immortal herb, a Great Rejuvenation Pill, and three Marrow-Cleansing Pills.
After taking them, eighty percent of his meridians were now unblocked.
Although only six years old in body, his physical strength could rival a Soul Elder. His power was flourishing; with soul power, a full-force punch could already break through a Soul Elder's defense.
That explained why lifting the hammer just now was so effortless.
And the reason he was now at the Sotuo City Blacksmith Association was because…
"It's done!"
"It's done!"
Several dark-skinned blacksmiths stood opposite a huge furnace, staring at its contents with excitement.
Lou Gao immediately rushed over. Carefully using soul power, he lifted a crimson object from the furnace and began quenching it.
"Shhh-sss…"
Lou Gao's expression was ecstatic. He stared at the object as if it were a naked beauty he wanted to kiss at once.
"You little brat! It worked!"
Lou Gao quickly called Chi Xiu over.
Chi Xiu approached, and Lou Gao revealed the object: it was a suit of clothing, as thin as cicada wings, entirely black, and emanating a multi-colored aura.
This was Lou Gao's second gift to Chi Xiu, also made from meteor stone.
"You little brat, once you wear this, attacks from below Ultimate Douluo level can be completely ignored. Even if Chen Xin attacks you with full force, you won't take a scratch. Unless…"
Lou Gao paused dramatically. Chi Xiu immediately asked curiously:
"Unless what?"
"Unless someone attacks you using your martial soul. Otherwise, no one can break the defense this suit provides!"
"Awesome!"
Lou Gao hesitated slightly as he handed the suit to Chi Xiu, reluctant to part with it. He hadn't expected to give his first two meteor stone creations to this little guy!
But without his help, none of it could have been made.
He warned, "Remember, I've given you this suit. If you ever need to use the meteor stone again, you must come to Gengxin City to help. After all, besides you, no one else on the continent can cut that thing."
"Okay, okay! No problem!"
Chi Xiu immediately laughed and treated the suit like a treasure. With this suit in the world, the continent's defense-type soul masters would be crying—after decades of cultivation, none of their defensive power could surpass this.
...
Chi Xiu had stayed in Sotuo City for five days.
Now, wearing the mask to return, he didn't know if anyone in the sect could still recognize him.
With the mask on, to other soul masters, he looked like an ordinary child—no trace of soul power radiating from him.
Chi Xiu planned to remove the mask before sleeping, and put it back on after teleporting, so that women he had "slept with" would never find him in real life.
Thinking this way felt as carefree as a god.
Back at the Purple Star Sect, indeed, no one immediately recognized him. When he revealed his identity, they could only barely match the masked Chi Xiu with the previous one.
Of course, this was also because his body had been enhanced over the past five days; he had grown taller and more handsome.
Under the mask, no one would have guessed such a striking face lay beneath.
...
After dinner, Chi Yuan suddenly came to visit.
"Son, it's time for you to obtain your soul rings. Tomorrow, I'll take you to the Star Dou Forest to hunt soul beasts. How about it?"
Chi Xiu paused for a moment. Thinking it over, he realized it was a necessary step and agreed.
After Chi Yuan left, Chi Xiu closed his door.
For most soul masters, nighttime was not for sleeping—using the time to meditate and improve soul power was the priority.
But for Chi Xiu, a special soul master, sleeping was the shortcut to ultimate strength.
He removed the mask, revealing long eyelashes and a divine-like face, pale and delicate in the moonlight.
"Good night, Makapaka."
Chi Xiu closed his eyes.
...
The Spirit Hall.
Hu Liena had been sleepless all night.
Previously, when her master had free time, she would patiently teach her, but now, after handling the Spirit Hall's trivial matters, her master simply stared blankly, seemingly forgetting she even had a disciple waiting to be taught.
Damn it! What kind of boy could make her master think of him day and night like this?
By now, it must be morning. Hu Liena sighed and prepared to get up to train.
But as she turned over, she froze.
Beside her lay an impossibly handsome boy.
