Imprisoned in a woodshed for ten years, Mu Qingyu has his dantian shattered by a branch family, endures endless beatings and abuse, and becomes the good-for-nothing reviled by his entire clan.
On the brink of death, the ancestral Wanmu Spirit Pearl suddenly awakens, and the long-lost ancient Golden Water Forging Dao enters his body!
While others meditate to cultivate, he gets stronger by forging metal. While others spend fortunes refining weapons, he can turn scrap into top-grade spirit weapons with a casual toss!
He leaves the Mu family, slaughters his enemies, and vows to flatten the Li family of the commandery within three months;
He settles in Smithing Street, opens Qingyu’s Forge, and takes in countless down-and-out smiths persecuted by the Canglan Sect;
At the smithing tournament, he crushes the genius Li Haoran with secret arts of water and fire. A mid-grade spirit weapon makes its debut, sweeping the commandery’s young talents!
On the day he claims victory, the overbearing Canglan Sect makes its move, brazenly trying to seize the Golden Water Forging Dao and the Wanmu Spirit Pearl!
Mu Qingyu, Chu Yanran, and a group of smiths set out for the Canglan Secret Realm. In this desperate situation, the spirit pearl fully awakens, unlocking the Origin of the Water God!
In the secret realm, he slays an elder and seizes an ancient forging scripture, uncovering a secret buried for a thousand years: the Canglan Sect Master is a traitor who betrayed the way of water, having built his dominance by slaughtering smiths and plundering their legacy!
He infiltrates the Canglan Sect, forms a Smithing Alliance, and exposes the sect’s dark secrets. He battles across the four regions, crushing every force allied with evil!
After gathering the three divine artifacts, slaying his archenemy, and destroying the Demon God, Mu Qingyu ascends to the position of Water God and reforms the smithing order throughout the entire Canglan Domain.
