Chapter 2546: An Esteemed Guest Visits the Blacksmith Shop (2)

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

His father rarely talked so much to a stranger…

No, he never talked to strangers.

But this time, they seemed to be having a good time. That person dared to make fun of his father.

Cao Erzhu could not help but become more curious about the identity of the middle-aged man in white.

Perhaps he was not just a village chief.

His father’s friend should be mighty.

“Friend…”

His thoughts kept jumping. Early in the morning, Cao Erzhu was already a little sad.

However, after he lifted the hammer, he immediately perked up.

He thought, “I have friends, too. Big Hammer is a good friend!”

However, what did that uncle mean by raising his eyebrows at the end?

Cao Erzhu wondered.

He suddenly felt something strange in his palm. After turning it over to take a look, he realized that some simple lines on the palm had just held the communication bead.

They formed a friendly handshake.

“Oh? Oh?”

Cao Erzhu was overjoyed. He lifted the iron hammer and almost danced on the spot.

He could tell this should be one of those magical spiritual array patterns. As long as he injected spirit essence, he would sense it.

“Try it?”

He did as he thought.

When he realized the uncle was in the backyard, Cao Erzhu had already injected his spirit essence into it.

He held his head, feeling that he had messed up something.

“Di di, di di, di di…”

From the direction of the backyard, an ear-piercing beeping sound could be heard.

Soon after, the entire blacksmith shop fell silent. The beeping sound quickly disappeared.

“Ahaha, listen to my explanation first…” His uncle sounded panicked.

Then, his father’s familiar irritable roar appeared and crushed his uncle’s embarrassment.

“You showy Elder Dao, you’re f***ing courting death!”

Boom!

Thunder exploded.

A huge hole was broken in the roof of the blacksmith shop.

When Cao Erzhu turned around, he saw a greyish-white figure flying out of the sky.

“Boom!.”

A broken jade hairpin and a bloody tooth fell from the backyard—big front teeth.

Cao Erzhu shivered and rushed out of the door to see the uncle.

For some reason, the sky had darkened. It was fine just now, but now thunder was rolling as if there were going to be a rainstorm.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

Bolts of blue lightning struck down from the sky and accurately struck the uncle’s body.

The greyish-white colour quickly turned into charred black.

The uncle was sent flying repeatedly, unable to resist the lightning and out of sight and spiritual sense.

“This…”

Cao Erzhu looked at his palm hesitantly. The corner of his mouth twitched. He was somewhat regretful but did not dare to make a sound.

A dull sound came from the backyard, “Come here!”

Cao Erzhu walked over with a steeled head. Soon, he saw his father lying on the ground, covered in sweat.

His brain worked quickly, and he explained first, “He wanted me to go out, but I had no interest in the spiritual cultivation world. After I discovered this, I let you find out in time. Am I right?”

Cao Erzhu giggled as he scratched his head with the hammer.

Unexpectedly, he did not get scolded or reprimanded. Instead, his father said calmly, “Open your hands.”

“Oh.” Cao Erzhu obediently let the handshake symbol appear.

“Try to erase it.”

“Oh.” Cao Erzhu hurriedly wiped it with his hand.

“Hahahaha…”

His father suddenly laughed loudly, and purple lightning crackled in the air.

Cao Erzhu saw his father move his fingers just now. He probably wanted to beat him up.

“Use your spiritual source.” It was rare for his father to be gentle again, and his calmness was a rare gentleness.

“Oh.” Cao Erzhu activated his energy reserve. He destroyed the symbol on his hand like rotten wood with a loud sound, turning it into spirit qi and disappearing.

“It’s gone.” He was a little depressed, but his expression was pleased.

“It’s not gone, it’s just hidden deeper.”

His father had never been as patient as he was now. He even explained, “Use your Penetrating Divine Senses.”

“Oh.” Cao Erzhu hurriedly responded again. Soon, crackling sounds could be heard from his body as purple electric arcs swam out, forming a thin layer on the surface of his body.

“Buzz”

The lightning snakes flashed across the void.

The space in the backyard began to crack. After the shocking light, black threads formed and quickly repaired themselves.

“Strength, strength, strength!” His father was impatient. “Let’s get to the point of strength. How is this even possible?”

“The shop can’t take it…” Cao Erzhu mumbled.

“I told you to increase the intensity, so just do it! Don’t talk nonsense!”

“Oh.”

Cao Erzhu could only increase the intensity.

One ten-thousandth of Penetrating Divine Senses was his limit.

Since his father wasn’t afraid that the shop would explode, he wouldn’t enter the cultivation room. He would open it here.

“Rumble!”

A thunderous roar exploded in the backyard.

The purple lightning arcs around Cao Erzhu surged and howled, almost turning into a small sea of lightning that drowned his entire body.

“Kakaka!”

The space quickly shattered.

Even the ironware on the wall began to disintegrate. As the remaining heat melted, the thunder blew away a little bit of molten iron.

“Attack again! This is less than 10%!”

His father glared at him, and the lightning that had been blown away surged towards him, pouring into his mouth and nose.

All kinds of power disappeared after that as if wholly eaten up.

His father made his move!

Cao Erzhu was surprised. His father would help him practice. This was a rare thing!

He immediately went all out.

In an instant, the small sea of lightning around him expanded and almost filled the entire blacksmith shop.
