"Kaguya, alter the course."

"Focus the Star's energy on the altar!"

Yunlong grasped the Warhammer's handle with one hand and closed his eyes. Before that, he ordered Kaguya to exploit the giant star's energy toward the altar.

Yes, he wanted to borrow the power of the star to forge Divine Tools.

Kaguya didn't reply verbally, but her action made the purple-gold star five hundred thousand kilometers away release a wave of explosion.

SWOOOSH! BOOM!

A powerful and dangerous shockwave washed the area. Fortunately, the hovering ring they are currently in is made with durable materials and enchanted with countless layers of sealing formations.

She narrowed her eyes and mumbled, "How annoying."

Kaguya has made and manipulated countless dimensions in her life, but playing around with stars is one of her dislikes. Not because she couldn't do it, it's because doing so is bothersome.

It's like having a steaming hot potato in her hand.

The steaming hot potato wouldn't kill Kaguya as it was a mere fare. It was so soft she could shape it like clay easily, but she would get the heat in the process.

Stars are the same. They are no different than hot potatoes in Kaguya's eyes.

If anyone had the same way of thinking as Kaguya, people would call that person crazy. Only a Goddess like her could have such a unique perspective due to her origin and in-depth power!

Kaguya waved her hands and caused invisible forces to appear around the giant star, forming a blanket-like barrier.

"Go down..." She clasped her hand forcibly.

The giant star seemingly squished by the invisible force and spewed out a high-traveling and intense light beam. The beam struck the sealing array around the hovering ring, causing several ancient characters to light up.

The ring released a bright light that blinds one's eyes, turning the beam into raw primordial heat.

"It finally begins." From afar, Gu Yuena and others stared at this sight solemnly. Since they knew Yunlong's prowess, they were confident he would succeed.

If other people like 2nd Class Gods did something like this. They either turned into ashes or died miserably.

Yunlong opened his eyes and revealed a pair of golden-colored Rinnegan shining with evil red light. He looked down at the table where he placed Exodium and observed the array successfully converting the giant star's power into primordial heat.

The black table becomes completely golden, allowing Exodium to heat up rapidly.

A 'normal' metal would turn orange, but Exodium is a Divine Metal with rich water attributes, so the whole ore slowly turned azure.

[Name: Greed]

[Form: Black Night Skyhammer]

[Skill: Black Night's Shift]

[Effect: Devour the Heaven and Earth's energy in the atmosphere, imbuing it on every strike dealt to the enemy]

'Are you ready, Boss?' Greed asked Yunlong. He could hear the excited tone in her voice.

"Let's start." He breathed in, regulating the divine power in his body.

Yunlong moved his lower body and twisted his waist rhythmically without further ado. He lifted Black Night Skyhammer and swung it with extreme control, striking the heating Exodium.

BOOOOOOOOM!!

Yunlong didn't stop and kept hammering Exodium rapidly.

At first, the sounds are chaotic. But soon enough, Yunlong's hammer-handling skill is still superb in creating a harmonious rhyme.

Once Yunlong's hammer hit Exodium, Heaven and Earth's energy blessed the Divine Metal and changed its shape.

It happens rapidly under Kaguya's vision as the Divine Metal becomes O's shape with an ambiguous pattern.

"Kaguya!" Yunlong cried out.

Kaguya walked forward to the forging table and slashed her right hand, dropping her blood over the Divine Metal.

DING!

BOOM!

The Divine Metal blazed with silver light due to Kaguya's blood as it was rich with vitality. After all, Kaguya's body is that of the Blue Silver Empress, who regained her human form.

Yunlong lifted his free hand and slashed open a wound with Infinite Sword Path, spraying his blood over Exodium as well.

ROOOOOOOOR!!

Dragonic attribute within Exodium is 'tactfully' unearthed, causing a majestic dragon roar to spread all over the Erupting Scale Galaxy.

"Shut up." Kaguya slapped the Divine Metal.

And as if responding to Kaguya, Exodium let a soft growl, and its light became dimmer.

"..." Yunlong.

"..." Greed.

"D-Did she just slaps the Divine Metal?" Qian Renxue commented after watching this from afar. The other ladies dumbly nodded, feeling Kaguya's action was out of their expectation.

Shouldn't you treat it with more care?

Yunlong knew Exodium had gained innate spirituality since its birth and conscience after absorbing his and Kaguya's blood, but to make it react like this.

Kaguya probably saw something with her eyes and felt displeased.

'Boss, we should continue.' Greed commented weirdly.

Yunlong sighed, "Yeah."

The forging process continued, and Yunlong began shaping the Divine Metal based on Kaguya's instruction earlier. He carefully hammered some parts and turned the Exodium into an arc-like shape.

After a while, the Divine Metal released another brilliance similar to a moon's glow.

KABOOM!

An intense thunderclap echoed in the sky.

Everyone looked up and saw cosmic dust gathering fast, forming cloud formations with powerful lightning swam around it.

"Lighting Calamity, huh?" Yunlong's eyes saw through this phenomenon immediately. "I can't leave the altar, which means this would be a little dangerous."

"Can you handle it?"

Kaguya also looked up and answered, "Based on the size, I can last thirty minutes or so. If Yu Ning'er was here, she should be able to help us..."

Upon hearing her comment, Yunlong couldn't help but smile inwardly because it was difficult for Kaguya to acknowledge someone.

Yet here she was, praising Yu Ning'er. And to be fair, only Yu Ning'er is proficient in handling lightning and thunder elements among Yunlong's maids.

Cracks! BOOM!

The dust storm settled, and two more phenomena appeared.

A bright white moon appeared, illuminating the altar.

A storm also appeared, revealing an eastern dragon with silverish-white scales.

"Continue!" Kaguya lowered her head and gave Yunlong a firm nod.

Yunlong started hammering again, pumping Heaven and Earth's energy into the half-finished Divine Tool.

BOOM!

A thunder strike fell.

Kaguya lifted her hand and slapped the thunderstrike away.

The lightning calamity didn't like this and sent two more at Kaguya's face, making the Moon Goddess frown.

'You dare to challenge me!' Kaguya activated her power even more, twisting dimensions around the altar.

BOOM! BOOM!

As Kaguya resisted the lightning calamity, Yunlong focused on the Divine Tool and shaped it meticulously. He turned his free hand into dragon claws and carved two eastern statues wrapping around the arc.

The Divine Tool's silver body shone brightly, and two dragons were seemingly alive. They squirmed and let their tails entangled.

GRRR!

KABOOOOOOOOM!!

A thunder strike slipped Kaguya's defense and tore her dimensional barrier, scratching Yunlong's back. While it's not powerful enough to damage him, his shirt and coat become handfuls of ashes.

"Yunlong!" Kaguya called out worriedly.

Yunlong is still hammering some imperfection in the Divine Tool and answered casually, "I'm fine."

Kaguya bit her lips and looked up indifferently. This annoying lightning calamity actually dared to sneak attack her husband!

UNFORGIVABLE!

'You've truly angered me! A mere cloud of dust!' Kaguya's eyes gleamed with coldness.

Yunlong and Kaguya focused on their tasks.

One is fending the lightning calamity's relentless advance.

And the other is trying to activate divinities within the Divine Tool.

Twenty minutes later, Yunlong heard a crack from the depth of the newly-created Divine Tool. A smile bloomed on his face because he only needed two last steps.

Yunlong breathed out and said, "Kaguya, redirect the lightning calamity to me."

"I, okay." Kaguya wanted to say no, but Yunlong's confident smile put her heart in a difficult situation. In the end, she agreed.

She deactivated her dimensional power, and the lightning calamity instantly became rowdy.

Yunlong watched a swirl appear above his hand and looked down at the massive silver arcs on the table. It looks like a bow, but not a bow, as there are no bowstrings.

It also looks like a moon's arc, but there is no thin curve, as it appears rounder than it must be.

"Come on!" Yunlong challenged the lightning calamity with a grin.

A white lightning suddenly descended, baring its fang at Yunlong.

KABOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

Yunlong ignored the lightning and watched the Divine Tool he created baptized by the lightning calamity, awakening its divine power.

After a few seconds, the lightning calamity disappeared and a new Divine Tool appeared in this universe. Birthed from unorthodox Divine Metal, and two divine entities.

Kaguya charged to Yunlong's side, "This is..."

"Come here." Yunlong dragged Kaguya's hand and placed it on the Divine Tool. "It's yours, you can give it a name."

Kaguya looked at the Divine Tool with great interest and said, "Boat of Moonlit Dragon, Lunaris."

[Ding! You have created a Divine Tool for the first time!}

[Congratulation, Host]

[You have entered the rank of Divine Blacksmith]
