Chapter 350: Drumming Golden Hammer
Ding Ling didn’t think too much and instead decided to avoid unnecessary delays.
He immediately began to flip through the Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique.
Whirr, whirr!
Ding Ling rapidly scanned through each line, hundreds of lines.
Amidst the rustling sound of turning pages, he quickly finished reading.
A book simultaneously appeared in his sea of consciousness, in the mental library.
In an instant.
[Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique Full Level]
The essence, truths, and mysteries of the Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique surged and flowed in his mind.
Soon after, it transformed into an instinct and was etched into every part of Ding Ling’s body, from limbs to organs.
In just a blink, Ding Ling had completely mastered the Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique!
"Such a powerful hammer technique!"
After truly mastering it.
Ding Ling finally understood why Li Yuanba swung his hammers so aggressively and unrivaled!
This was the essence of the hammer technique.
Once the great hammer was swung, it was like the thunderbolt of the Nine Heavens striking down to the mortal realm, unstoppable, invincible, overwhelming all under heaven!
"Such a hammer technique, if it can increase the four-dimensional attribute value, might directly boost power by more than 0.4."
Such was the lethal nature of this hammer technique!
Absolutely a top-notch mystic technique rarely found in the world.
Surpassing countless sword techniques and spear techniques.
Among all the sword techniques, spear techniques, and saber techniques Ding Ling had mastered, almost none could compare to this Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique!
Even the Sword God Skill, on which he relied as his trump card, was slightly inferior to the Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique.
This seemed like a hammer technique not of the human world.
Not meant for mortals to learn.
After seeing it, Ding Ling only felt its difficulty in training was defying the heavens, a common person wouldn’t even be able to wield several thousand jin hammers through mere physical strength!
Li Yuanba must have mastered the Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique to full level, which is why he could skillfully utilize the intricacy of the technique and easily lift the two giant hammers, running with them wildly!
"So even if this Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique was written down and placed here, it would be useless to others even if they got it."
Ding Ling was relieved.
That’s why he could cheat.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to learn this Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique either.
"The Sword God Skill is incomplete. If the Sword God Skill was complete, it might contend with the Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique, but now it can only fall a bit behind."
Ding Ling indeed hadn’t expected.
After learning the Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique.
His strongest martial skill turned from the sword to the hammer.
"However, the four-dimensional attributes cannot be increased. It’s a bit of a pity; perhaps in the future, when breaking through the void, I can try to bring some secret manuals while ascending. If I can, I might rapidly grow powerful in another world."
But Ding Ling guessed this was impossible.
Because ascension strictly specifies how much can be brought.
Secret manuals are not within the allowable items.
As for memorizing and then bringing them?
Other players could, but for Ding Ling, his Divine Skill automatically reaches full level once memorized. What’s the use of memorizing?
So he could only attempt and let go if it wasn’t possible.
"Tap, tap."
Ding Ling casually tucked the secret manual into his pocket, walked over to Li Yuanba’s corpse, glanced at it, and thought:
"Li Yuanba said his second brother would avenge him. Was he talking about Li Shimin?"
He walked past the body, approached the giant hammer, grasped its handle, and lifted it with a slight pull.
Very heavy.
At least seven to eight hundred jin!
Such a heavy hammer, if smashed down, could collapse a city gate; ordinary first-class experts could only be crushed facing this heavy hammer.
"Is this the Drumming Golden Hammer?"
Ding Ling activated the Breathing Technique, operated the Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique, and instantly felt the heavy Drumming Golden Hammer become much lighter.
"This is a hammer highly compatible with the Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique!"
Ding Ling was moved:
"This is definitely not a mundane item."
Ding Ling observed that the hammer had almost no scratches, further affirming his thoughts.
This hammer had been clashing with the Giant Que Sword numerous times.
Yet it remained unscathed, not even with a scratch, an absolute top-grade Divine Weapon!
Ding Ling looked at the other hammer.
He walked over, lifted it, also very heavy.
But unlike the previous one, this hammer was dented and cracked all over, seemingly ready to shatter at any moment.
Ding Ling remembered the ascension rules.
"Ordinary ascenders can only bring one weapon, one set of clothing!"
Surely Li Yuanba only brought one Drumming Golden Hammer through the realm barrier.
Ding Ling was relieved.
He casually threw away the tattered giant hammer and, carrying the Drumming Golden Hammer, set off towards the direction of Qu Feiyan and the others’ inn.
"In legends, the Drumming Golden Hammer is recorded as a pair weighing eight hundred jin. And this one Drumming Golden Hammer is perhaps eight hundred jin. Seems that the military generals of the Sui and Tang Dynasty World in the lower realm became stronger and fiercer after the Breathing Techniques and martial arts were disseminated!"
"An eight-hundred-jin Drumming Golden Hammer."
Once Ding Ling grasped the Drumming Golden Hammer with his right hand, he found that the full-level Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique was operating on its own within his body, making the Drumming Golden Hammer in his hand ever lighter, like a floating feather, light as can be to smash outward!
"No wonder Li Yuanba could run so fast carrying this hammer. Turns out this is a Divine Weapon specially designed for the Nine Heavens Thunder Hammer Technique."
Ding Ling marveled secretly.
It was his first time seeing such a weapon.
The person who crafted this weapon for Li Yuanba must be a Divine Being!
Ordinary people wouldn’t have this kind of skill.
"I wonder who crafted this weapon for Li Yuanba? If they knew I killed Li Yuanba, would they come seeking revenge?"
"Or is it that the Drumming Golden Hammer wasn’t crafted by anyone, but a historical relic godly weapon, which matched Li Yuanba so perfectly that it came to be possessed by him?"
Exactly what the truth is.
Is unknown.
But since Ding Ling had obtained this Drumming Golden Hammer, there was no possibility of returning it.
Though this hammer was indeed quite large.
Ding Ling shook his head, decided not to worry; such a giant hammer, forged of divine iron, could be melted and remodeled to craft numerous Divine Weapons.
For Ding Ling, there’s no reason to give it up.
Moreover, he couldn’t possibly melt it down.
Tap, tap!
He walked along the way.
Swish, swish!
Passersby along the path avoided him as if they saw a ghost god.
In an instant.
A wide ’avenue of hope’ opened up before Ding Ling.
Ding Ling was speechless.
He glanced at the surrounding people; no one dared to meet his eyes. Those who did either looked panic-stricken, quickly lowered their heads, stepped back a few steps, or had faces full of tension...
Of course, among them, there were those with fanatical faces and eyes gleaming with joy, who raised their hands toward Ding Ling, uttering words that completely mismatched the scene:
"Idol, idol! Can I shake your hand!"
"Idol, I really like you. Is there a chance for us to have a good exchange?"
"Idol. Can I become your apprentice?"
...
The players included both young and old, men and women.
This battle.
Inspired many young men whose blood boiled with excitement.
