Chapter 2446 Divine Smithing Sect


    “What''s the matter?” Jared asked cautiously.


    However, the old priestpletely ignored him and continued crying, which left Jared feeling


    speechless.


    With that, Jared and xseed had no choice but to watch the old priest cry for over ten minutes


    before he finally ceased his tears.


    “Hey—” Just when Jared was about to ask what had happened, the old priest spoke, cutting him off.


    “The Fire Incineration Sect I mentioned is in the Ethereal Realm, and that''s why you haven''t heard


    of it. It''s hard to believe that in the blink of an eye, I''ve been away from the Ethereal Realm for more


    than ten years...” The old priest''s voice was tinged with sadness.


    His utterances stupefied Jared and xseed.


    “You''re... You''re from the Ethereal Realm?” Jared''s face was filled with disbelief as he struggled to


    comprehend the notion of someone from the Ethereal Realm descending into the mundane world.


    The old priest nodded solemnly. “For all these years, I had believed I was still living in the Ethereal


    Realm, but little did I know that I had left the ce many years ago.”


    “Aren''t you subjected to the suppression by thews of nature when you descended from the


    Ethereal Realm into the mundane world?”


    Jared was curious to know if the old priest was like him, unaffected by the suppression of thews


    of nature.


    “Of course, I''m affected by thews of nature. But for the sake of survival, I had no choice. Over the


    past ten years or so, my strength has regressed significantly under the suppression of thews of


    nature. However, my skills in refining weapons have not been affected by the suppression. So it''s


    effortless for me to repair weapons,” the old priest exined in a calm voice.


    “What exactly happened? What made you leave the Ethereal Realm and willingly endure the


    suppression of thews of nature toe to the mundane world?” Jared was eager to find out why


    the old priest left the Ethereal Realm.


    After all, to cultivators in the mundane world, the Ethereal Realm was literally a paradise!


    The old priest sighed and replied, “It''s a long story...”


    Jared and xseed listened to his recount attentively and finally understood the whole situation.


    The old priest was not actually a priest but a cksmith master from Divine Smithing Sect. His


    name was Hammerhead.


    Due to Divine Smithing Sect''s renowned expertise in crafting divine weapons, they caught the


    attention of Fire Incineration Sect.


    Fire Incineration Sect demanded the assistance of Divine Smithing Sect in forging weapons.


    However, Divine Smithing Sect refused toply because Fire Incineration Sect practiced Demonic


    Cultivation. That refusal led to the annihtion of Divine Smithing Sect, with their sect leader being


    captured.


    Amidst the chaos, Hammerhead managed to escape with the sect''s secret scrolls, causing him to


    be the target of relentless pursuit by members of Fire Incineration Sect.


    Left with no other options, Hammerhead tore through space and time and found refuge in the


    mundane world, willingly subjecting himself to the suppression of thews of nature in order to


    elude the grasp of Fire Incineration Sect.


    As members of Fire Incineration Sect were terrified of thews of nature, they eventually


    abandoned their pursuit, granting Hammerhead a narrow escape.


    Stranded in the mundane world, Hammerhead could only be a wanderer andter became a priest


    in Spiritus ultus Monastery. However, because the monastery fell into dpidation afterward, he


    lived a life of uncertainty again, with no fixed abode.


    Despite his circumstances, Hammerhead remained steadfast in his determination to rescue his sect


    leader. That was why when Jared sought him out, heid down a clear condition—they must first


    save his sect leader.


    As Jared listened to Hammerhead''s ount, he realized the Ethereal Realm was far from being a


    heavenly paradise, as it was filled with deceit and constant battles.

    He sympathized with Hammerhead, who had spent many lonely years wandering in the mundane


    world.


    Jared and xseed remained silent for a long time after hearing the story.


    Hammerhead, ovee with sorrow, took a long moment topose himself. He then exhaled


    deeply and forced a smile. “Since you two listened to me so attentively, I will not impose the


    condition on you anymore. With your abilities, rescuing someone from Fire Incineration Sect is


    impossible anyway. If you have any weapons that need repairing, just take them out. After I repair


    them, I''ll be leaving this ce as well.”
