Ten Thousand Year Cold Iron.
Before artifacts appeared, it was the main material for weapons called divine weapons.
Unlike other types of irons, it had overwhelming durability.
It was so hard that unless you were more than an ordinary craftsman, you couldn’t even attempt to smelt it.
In the past, several centuries ago.
When the Demonic Gate opened and demonic beasts poured out.
When that era called the Age of Despair began, a problem arose.
Even back then, Ten Thousand Year Cold Iron was extremely precious.
But since it was a time when they had to use it to survive, families and sects without exception had to pull out Ten Thousand Year Cold Iron to make weapons and armors.
Why?
Because low-realm martial artists needed at least cold iron to kill demonic beasts.
Also, because around the time when prestigious families and sects that saved the precious material were swept away and disappeared, numbering in double digits.
It was such an era.
An era where you had to grab anything and struggle with all your might to maybe survive.
This was also an anecdote showing the power of Ten Thousand Year Cold Iron.
Making low-realm martial artists one level stronger.
Meaning it’s that excellent and hard steel.
The Force Qi that manifests from Peak Realm and above.
Unless reaching that level, you can’t even scratch Ten Thousand Year Cold Iron.
That is the natural principle.
Yet.
Thud thud-!
