Guan Yue immediately voiced his doubt .
All major forces were clear about the Holy Spirit Cult's structure of One Emperor, Two Lords, Four Kings. Su Ming should also know this.
Yet, he defined the cult's destruction as the fall of the Two Lords and Four Kings, not the Demon Empress.
Why?
What was so special about the Demon Empress?
"So, how much does the Federation understand about the Demon Empress so far?"
Su Ming asked indifferently.
This time, Guan Yue was dumbfounded.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.
It seemed, perhaps, that the Demon Empress was only a name. The Federation had no other information about her.
He looked at Su Ming.
"So, you don't want to waste time?"
"No. The Demon Empress has another purpose. I know her origins. But to be honest, if we really want to find her, I also don't know where she is. If you truly want to kill her, you might as well go to the Abyssal battlefield first."
Go to the Abyssal battlefield first?
Guan Yue's face changed slightly.
He kept repeating Su Ming's words in his heart.
Could it be that the Demon Empress is there?
"During our fight against the Abyss, the Demon Empress will appear on her own."
Hearing Su Ming's explanation, Guan Yue was quite puzzled.
Su Ming shook his head.
He didn't continue explaining.
Revealing this was already the limit. Any further, and if the fact that the Abyssal Sage King could descend through the Demon Empress became common knowledge, the variable would be too great.
As for telling only Guan Yue?
Laughable.
Why tell him?
Su Ming said this much only to make Guan Yue quickly finish dealing with Halosa and the Four Kings and then hurry to the Abyssal battlefield.
Once he entered the Abyssal battlefield, he couldn't intervene in Federation matters anymore.
Then Su Ming himself could take over the War God Hall.
Hmm, good. Now Su Ming also wanted to serve as the War God Hall Master.
After urging Guan Yue, Su Ming arrived at Sky Dou City.
The Blacksmith Association Headquarters.
At this moment, a large number of Body Sect members had gathered here.
"Greetings, Sect Master."
Mu Ye, leading a group of Body Sect members, smiling addressed Su Ming.
From today, Su Ming would also become the Body Sect Master.
And it didn't end there.
Su Ming's return to the Federation from the battlefield this time was naturally to obtain all attainable statures.
He looked at Zhen Hua.
"Teacher Zhen Hua, I am now capable of Heaven Refinement. Let's do it today. A Federation-wide broadcast. I will perform Heaven Refinement."
Zhen Hua was taken aback.
He hadn't received prior notice from Su Ming, thinking today was only about Su Ming succeeding the Body Sect Master position.
Broadcast Heaven Refinement?
After only hesitating for a moment, Zhen Hua understood Su Ming's meaning.
He was preparing to simultaneously become the President of the Blacksmith Association.
A smile appeared on his face.
What was there to object?
He certainly wouldn't refuse.
Not only wouldn't he refuse, but he was also very happy, having long wanted to hand over this responsibility to Su Ming.
"Wait for me to prepare. It will take about ten minutes."
Zhen Hua immediately left the scene to prepare the broadcast.
"Since you're going to perform Heaven Refinement, then adjust your condition. We won't disturb you," Mu Ye said.
Su Ming didn't force himself to put on a strong front.
Today's Heaven Refinement, although not forging materials for his future Four-Word Battle Armor, the metal he was about to forge was no small matter.
Since the next theme was fighting the Abyss, he naturally had to make some preparations for it.
"Rong Nianbing's two supreme skills can both reach Quasi-God King level."
Both supreme skills required matching artifacts to achieve their best effects.
The Federation-wide broadcast was quickly launched under Zhen Hua's arrangements.
Although the initial viewer count wasn't high, as time passed and Su Ming ascended the Blacksmith Association rooftop, the live broadcast viewership grew larger and larger.
Even major television stations immediately stopped their ongoing broadcasts and cut in on this Heaven Refinement broadcast.
Heaven Refinement!
The hype surrounding this broadcast was immense.
Words spread from one to ten, ten to a hundred, and the viewership soared crazily.
Until almost every corner of the Federation had someone watching this broadcast.
A new Divine Blacksmith had been born!
And in The most conspicuous manner possible.
Su Ming's forging was exceptionally steady.
Without a single mistake, the nine-colored tribulations descent was complete, and the Heaven Refinement was finished.
Su Ming calmly handled the nine-colored tribulation. This tribulation, powerful enough to threaten a Limit Douluo, was calmly received by him.
He seemed to peel silk from a cocoon in combing through this nine-colored tribulation. The lightning, frantically jumping like serpents, was gently grasped in his hands, smoothed bit by bit. The internal elemental power began to be separated, then re-interwoven, forming new elemental lightning, becoming docile in Su Ming's hands.
"Good, good, so exaggerated..." Even Zhen Hua was shocked, not knowing how to describe this. Scene.
For him, the biggest danger of Heaven Refinement was this elemental tribulation. He could only help a little each time, absolutely impossible, to help the forged Heaven Refinement metal withstand all the tribulation alone, let alone do it with such effortless and graceful poise as Su Ming now.
"That can't be right?"
Many viewers muttered to themselves.
"I remember Su Ming. He was clearly very violent, using his fists for everything."
At Shrek Academy, some students remembered the fear of being dominated by Su Ming's ultimate simplicity of fists.
Mu Ye also couldn't help but suspect if Su Ming had been replaced by someone else.
The previous Su Ming would definitely have just thrown a punch, scattering the tribulation.
The current Su Ming had He became so refined.
This left Mu Ye somewhat depressed.
Because recently during his cultivation, he had many insights. Achieving unity of man and blade, he developed different supreme skills, but ultimately, referring to Su Ming, he integrated them all into the most ordinary slash.
Yet how could Su Ming now quietly and without a word change his style?
Mu Ye was speechless, depressed, feeling betrayed by his disciple.
Su Ming performed seven consecutive forge sessions. Each session represented the birth of the strongest Heaven Refinement metal for the corresponding elemental attribute on the current Douluo Planet.
Not a single failure.
Seven Heaven Refinements, all with nine-colored tribulation, made the entire broadcast continuously climactic.
In one day, seven pieces Heaven Refinement metal.
In the shadows, countless powerhouses revealed expressions of longing.
With Su Ming's performance like this, who didn't know his forging skill had reached an unprecedented level?
A set of Four-Word Battle Armor might take Su Ming only two or three days to complete.
Zhen Hua was also puzzled about how Su Ming had elevated his Heaven Refinement skill to this level.
Even Su Ming's learning of Heaven Refinement was limited to calls. He hadn't formally come to the Blacksmith Association to hear his explanations, only inquired about techniques via spirit communication on the ship returning from the Star Luo Continent.
Immersed in this unreal shock, Zhen Hua was somewhat dazed.
Seven Heaven Refinements, seven successes, nine-colored tribulations.
"Little Ming's forging skill has already reached the pinnacle of the Heaven Refinement domain."
He grew excited.
"So, can Little Ming pioneer a realm higher than Heaven Refinement?"
While Zhen Hua was excited, Su Ming's forging had also stopped.
The tribulation dissipated.
Across the Federation, people watching the broadcast were all anticipating the final scene of this broadcast.
Zhen Hua took a deep breath, walked to Su Ming's side, and announced to the entire Federation—
"Su Ming has become a new Divine Blacksmith and will also take over the Blacksmith Association on my behalf, becoming the new President."
After saying this, he suddenly heard Su Ming's voice in his ear, then curled the corner of his mouth and delivered the next line.
"Similarly, he will also take my place to lead the forging world forward,pioneering a brand new era!"
