Next Day,
Lin Lee appeared in the main hall of the forging mountain.
Looking at the large metal furnace with red color painted above it, also a simple large rock block made from rock, which serves as a forging table, there are hammers and other tools almost enough to forge normal cold weapons.
"They are not enough; I have to create stronger tools in order to manufacture stronger weapons. It’s a universal truth: more powerful tools, more powerful weapons."
Lin Lee muttered and then walked forward toward the storage room attached to the hall.
After looking at the metals and stones mix boulders inside, he appeared beside those metals and stone boulders, touched them one by one,
After closing his eyes for a while, he opened them brightly, looking at the large boulder the size of ten meters.
"This is it,"
Lin Lee muttered and then dragged the boulder outside and grabbed the hammer; he struck the boulder.
Bang! Bang!! Bang!!!
Instantly cracks spread around, and then the boulder separated into two pieces.
Lin Lee nodded, satisfied after picking each piece and looking at the metal content inside.
He then put one part on the table and then grabbed the hammer in his hand tightly, looking at the boulder pieces with a focused gaze.
At this moment an unexpected figure appeared in the hall; then that figure fell silent and stood in place, looking at Lin Lee standing in front of the forging table.
The next moment, Lin Lee took the stance and stroked the hammer.
Bang!!!
A loud noise spread around in the hall; even the ground trembled a little.
Instantly the figure standing at the entrance was shocked looking at his direction; actually, he was looking at the large boulder part on the table in front of Lin Lee.
The boulder surface has become a little red and revealing a metallic surface at the same time a lot of impurities and dirt have fallen around the table.
’How is this possible? Who is this guy? He is smelting and refining the ore without a furnace. What kind of forging technique is this?’ The figure thought to himself, then his gaze became solemn looking at Lin Lee’s back.
On the other hand, Lin Lee struck the boulder part; each strike is more powerful than the previous one. Find adventures on freewebnovel

Bang! Bang!! Bang!!! Bang!!!! Bang!!!!!
A rhythmic sound spread through the forging hall, while the figure behind became more and more shocked, looking at the red and gold burning metal piece lying on the table without any dregs. Also, its red and gold color without any flaw indicates that it has no impurities inside.
Then the figure expression filled with awe looking at the burning metal, condensing and reducing in size, and slowly it took the shape of a hammerhead.
After a while,
Lin Lee stopped striking, and then he nodded, looking at the red hammerhead in front of him, and then he glanced at the hammer in his hand, which is also red and completely disfigured.
’It is really not a good hammer for me; anyway, its other side is enough to create another hammerhead,’ Lin Lee thought to himself, looking at the hammer in his hand.
At this moment, the figure behind returned to his senses and hurriedly walked forward, appearing beside him anxiously, "Let me see it."
Lin Lee was startled; he got aside, looking at the old giant with white hair and beard who suddenly appeared beside him.
He was observing the hammerhead with an excited and wretched expression as if watching a naked beauty.
’Is this old guy the weapon master in this village?’ Lin Lee thought to himself, looking at the old man silently.
After observing the hammerhead, he turned and glanced at Lin Lee with a bright gaze and asked, "Boy, you are amazing. Where did you learn such a divine forging technique? I haven’t seen anything like this before."
Lin Lee startled, looking at him, and replied thoughtfully, "I created it myself; it’s simply using the power of vibration frequency and friction to heat up the metal."
"Amazing, tell me more about this vibration frequency and friction; I will accept you as my mentor." The old man hurriedly spoke with a burning gaze.
Lin Lee glanced at him, nodded, and then raised the disfigured hammer. He turned it around and then pointed at the other part of the boulder and spoke,
"I won’t accept you as a student, but I will show you and explain the forging process once; after that, it depends on your talent whether you can comprehend it or not."
The old giant was startled and then nodded after a little hesitation; he hurriedly picked the other five-meter part of the boulder and put it above the table.
"Watch it carefully; along with each strike, my hammer trembles and rattles at high speed. Such phenomena create an oscillating frequency at the same time the vibration along with the collision creates a friction that heats up the metals. After each strike, I am matching the frequency of both metals and using it to remove the impurities and dregs and also reshape the metal."
Lin Lee spoke the theoretical terms amidst the confused expression on the old giant’s face; still, the old giant didn’t ask anything, just nodded attentively.
Lin Lee then glanced at the boulder part with a focused expression and spoke, "Next, observe each of my strikes carefully."
After speaking, he struck the boulder part with all his might.
Bang!
A spark flashed through the old giant pupils; at the same time, dregs and rock debris scattered around, and the boulder part’s surface flickered with a metallic luster.
Bang!! Bang!!!
After another two strikes, the old giant saw the rock particles and dreg completely separated from the metal and scattered around, revealing a dark silver metal piece.
Then he observed the next barrage of hammer strikes; the next one is more powerful than the previous one.
Bang! Bang!! Bang!!!
’Is this the vibration frequency he was talking about?’
Old Giant thought he noticed the humming sound released by the collision of the hammer and metal piece; at the same time, he saw the metal turning pure red gold with each strike, and then the metal started compressing and condensing at an alarming rate, reshaping into another hammerhead almost exactly the size as the previous hammerhead.
"Amazing," Old Giant couldn’t contain his emotion and muttered in awe, looking at the other red burning hammerhead.
Lin Lee also stopped the forging process and released a long sigh, adjusting his breath; then he glanced at the dazed face of the old giant and asked, "Do you understand?"
The old giant returned to his senses, and then he shook his head and sighed, "Although I understood the vibration frequency that you talked about earlier, I can’t master it; my weapon master talent is just a normal one; it will take me decades to learn it, and my lifespan is not enough for that."
Lin Lee glanced at him speechlessly and then shook his head and replied, "I didn’t say you can learn it, but at least you can upgrade the technique you are using with this knowledge."
The old man’s eyes lit up, and he replied, looking at him, "Yes, why haven’t I thought about it before? Teacher, you are really a genius."
Lin Lee once again became speechless hearing teacher from the old giant’s mouth, and then he shook his head and replied, "Don’t call me teacher; my name is Lin Lee."
The old giant was startled and then shook his head and replied, "You have imparted me such precious knowledge; how can I call you by name? You are my respectful teacher. Also, teacher, my name is Jon Lander."
Lin Lee was surprised hearing his name and asked thoughtfully, "Are you related to village chief Jin?"
The old giant glanced at him and then nodded with a calm expression on his face, "Yes, teacher, he is my son; also, there is another son of mine; his name is Jill."
Lin Lee nodded hearing his words and didn’t care about him calling him teacher, then he glanced at the hammerhead with the handle section missing, but he left holes in the middle of both hammerheads in order to insert the handle inside later.
"Do you know about a flexible metal with characteristics that can absorb the shockwaves and is highly resistant to heat?" Lin Lee asked thoughtfully, looking at the old giant.
The old giant was startled, and then his expression became thoughtful. After thinking for a while, he pointed at the furnace and spoke,
"Teacher, I know such metal; the furnace is made from it; this metal is known as red copper."
Lin Lee glanced at the huge furnace and walked beside it; after touching the surface of the furnace, he closed his eyes, and then, opening them, he walked toward the storage room.
After a while he returned with two three-meter boulders.
’It seems the teacher is more experienced than I thought; despite his age, only legendary weapon masters can tell the difference between metal by touching them.’
Old giant Jon thought, and then a brilliance flashed through his eyes.
