Synopsis
"Master Ouyang, please smith a divine weapon for me!"
"Master Ouyang, you're the only person who can forge a weapon with seven attributes. Please make my dream come true!"
"Master Ouyang, could you..."
"Ouyang my *ss! My surname is Ou!"
Ou Yangming was an orphan who was adopted by a reputable old blacksmith from a military camp. After working as a helper under the old man for years, he was given a chance to acquire the Military Fire—a trait allowing him to smith and restore equipment with the Military Fire produced from his hands.
Gifted with mental power, Ou Yangming controlled his Military Fire unusually well and was also strangely talented in martial arts. On top of it, he could also attach Unique Attributes into weapons with a hundred-percent success rate. Those who belittled Ou Yangming because of his background and age eventually honored him so much that they would do anything to get their hands on his equipment.
Little did Ou Yangming know that as he slowly unfolded the mysteries of the Military Fire and his mental power, he was advancing step by step on the immortal path to Heaven!

A cultivation novel that is actually different from the thousands of cultivation novels where the main character is considered trash even when he reaches immortality. The novel reminds of Upgrade Specialist in Another World. The main character has the ability to upgrade weapons in a more efficient manner than other blacksmiths. He has extreme talent in smithing. His talent in cultivation is ordinary, however, due to receiving an object with the devour attribute he can take the blood and qi of beasts to increase his to cultivate faster. Others can also do this through the use of special herbs to increase their blood and Qi. It's just easier for the main character as all he has to do is kill animals. His cheat? allows him to hold attributes in his mind palace? which allows him to transfer and take unique attributes from weapons and apply them elsewhere as he wills.
I was nicely surprised because I excepted a typical xianxia novel with full time face-slapping but no it s not so I recommand it. Well the present cheat is not overpowered but gives the MC a really nice advantage.
Absolutely standard story, where the main character gets everything out of great luck .. He is constantly lucky and does not understand at all how this or that action leads to its improvement, which is funny because knowledge is not added, but the ambition grows like clockwork. The licking of the ass of the main character is incredibly shocking when he demounts his cheating ability in absolutely inappropriate places, in this work this is found in almost every chapter. In general, for 50 chapters, it only becomes clear that he does not live in a military camp, but in a licking camp. Nothing is clear about the world at all. About the story of the characters and their elaboration - they all lick asses for everyone who is older in rank or have skills, absolutely all characters up to chapter 54 inclusive, there are no proud ones. In general, the story of chapter 54 causes sickening urges. I do not advise people who are friends with the logic of things, here you will not find it.

I don't know what the hype is about this novel, it's no where nearly as good as others, I guess it's because it's very mainstream people really like it. If you are looking for something innovative and exciting then don't read this, because it's not it's the same old novel like all other....mc gets powers and smashes everyone....nothing interesting at all, you can predict the end at the start.

Expedited turn of events to the point that we are not given time to sympathize with the MC when he does stupid sh*t. Rather than feeling that his actions were justified, it feels like explanations were glossed over and his actions become crude and immoral. I have no clue if it's the translation or it's created by design, but so far I'm not invested or impressed. Verdict: Pass.
Don't be fooled by the summary, our MC is a hard working black Smith. It is well paced, a bit slow when in comparison to this style, but unlike those, the plot is not based on stereotypes. The characters are well developed, a worthy read.
A hard working MC blacksmith in a military camp. So far, so good the plot is moving forward without too many stereotypes. A recommended read if you enjoy this genre.
It starts out alright, but honestly the main character is just incredibly stupid about everything. He never once seems to think about decisions that cause major world changing events past how it affects him and like 3 other people. He's told thing he can do are incredibly rare, even for people realms above him, and still seems shocked when they're called impossible or godlike. Insists on humans being the most important race, despite having all of his followers being magical beasts on different kinds. But not that one kind, they're evil. Starts a war with the only evil kind of beasts over 2 villages of common people, doesn't even consider that even more of his precious humans will die because of it because he think he'll get away with killing beasts whose master is one of the highest realms mentioned so far. The cultivation system is constantly on the back burner as the MC "learns" smithing techniques that he picks up because of the special fire he got.

This is a slow starting novel where author likes to introduce you to the world similar to novels like Record of a Mortal's Journey to immortality. As such, if you're looking for a standard fast paced typical xuanhuan then this is not it. That being said, this is a CRAFTING novel, more specifically a blacksmith crafting novel. MC gains a system where he can easily upgrade his smithed items with attributes. However, he doesn't abuse the system and instead learns how to craft without the system whilst learning many new blacksmith techniques e.g. Adding gems slots, making set items etc. The whole crafting process is very in depth and highly satisfying for crafting fanatics. A little similar to Upgrade Specialist in Another World, this novel although a Xuanhuan, has a more classical Xianxia setting and the crafting system is more fleshed out. The downside so far is its pretty crafting intense (approx 50%) so novel can feel VERY SLOW. The author has introduced a few different blacksmith type arcs (tests, new items) but there's very little drama or excitement which can make the novel a bit dull. The cultivation side is a bit more standard, he gets a "devouring" attribute which he puts on weapons to help him grow faster. Romance starts after a few hundred chapters and then stops for a long while - generally there isn't much. The MC is very cautious and calm, similar to Han Li (RMJI) and is very mature for his age (15). The cultivation progress is slow (in terms of chapters) but fast in terms of age. However, the balance isn't as good as RMJI because levels are split into 5 (which is too many) and so to keep the pacing the author has the MC 'skip' many levels at a time and he can constantly jump 1-2 large boundaries to fight. As such you can't feel the impact of a specific level. This is all confounded by the author not having a clear power structure that you don't really know how strong MC is (he was very strong in first few hundred chapters but because crafting chapters occupy bulk of novel it's unclear how strong MC is later on). The translation quality is great with very few grammar errors while the updates are regular. If you're looking for a more in depth blacksmith novel with an emphasis on crafting then give this novel a read. Translation should be done in 18 months at current rate. I dropped a star from initial 5 star to 4 star as although the crafting is great, author has got the balance wrong (too much crafting and not enough cultivation, drama, fighting etc) so novel can feel dry and difficult to continue reading at times. Update: I've currently taken a break from this novel with <300 chapters to go. One big gripe is he spends half the novel at the same cultivation boundary - because author writes long slow paced crafting arcs and then adds even more crafting e.g. Alchemy and formations, the cultivation time has to take a back seat. These newer crafts feel rushed as he quickly gets to the same level as his blacksmithing without the hard graft we've seen before so it all feels a bit cheap. The kicker is, after waiting for so long for him to gain the next cultivation level he starts getting fast power ups again. It all feels like lazy writing and you wonder why author didn't have a better pacing to the novel. It's not a bad read but if you're reading this as just a xuanhuan then the cultivation side is very dry and slow that I'd probably skip the novel. Read only if you really like crafting and don't mind slower, longer chapters.
I honestly have no problems with this. The story line is great and I really like the character plot.

Yeah baby this novel is the bomb to. Tis good to read and very addictive. Fried chicken is delicious and very good for the body. I like fried chicken yeah
There are some cliche elements with the arrogant young master right at the beginning but it didn't make it less enjoyable to read. The cultivation system isn't anything new so far but mc cheat is pretty fun and mostly focused on accumulation and learning instead of instant power-ups. I recommend it to people looking for some light reading.
Really enjoyed the 60 chapters released.. It has a balance of talent, cultivation levels, skills and his cheats.. His cheat is very unique and reminds me of 'Chu Li's Omniscient Mirror from 'White-Robed Chief' it's kinda OP if used correctly.. really can't wait for more chapters
A repetitive, one-dimensional story centered around an MC who simps for a forced love interest. At every turn, everyone disdains the MC until he face slaps them with his ability. He then is ‘magnanimous’ by giving those he slapped benefits. I’m more than 200 chapters in and disappointment is all I can really say. It took a drastic turn ever since he started simping for the girl. Verdict: Trash
The start was not that bad honestly. translation quality wise there are some errors there and there but it is still readable. I can honestly also get behind that the main female is brain dead and falls deep in love with MC for absolutely no reason nor prior contact or before even having spoken a single word to him. However it went downhill when the author keeps forcing that random stone gambling garbage story line there. I am 100% thinking it should not even be a thing. Not only does he keep selecting trash stones each time but the reason he does so is not even properly explained, just half assessed excuses like, does not want to show off. I honeslty hate this type of stuff so much he is actively hiding his skill for no reason at all since we had seen no real consequences, like i wouldn’t mind he did as he is doing now if there are actual consequences shown but there isn’t, because there is a guy clearly known for picking right stones most of the time our of 10 and MC decides he needs to hide his skill and picks 2 with 8 empty stones. It’s honestly the whole story each time, he could have so much benefits showing off his skills but he doesn’t, every encounter there exists for the sole reason of trash talking MC before even knowing, the brain level of villains in this novel is simply in a word : abysmal. I’d rather honestly read about a MC that fights and figure out his own benefits first for doing this or that than one actively hiding his skill and crippling his ability in doing so and again for seemingly no proper reason given.
It's nothing special, but I do enjoy reading it. The premise is basically that the MC gets a special blacksmithing flame that lets him take attributes from other weapons and ores to forge better gear. I'd have rated a little higher, but I am a little put-off by the fact that the mc doesn't seem to really struggle for most of what he has. His special flame was found through some amount of innate ability but good luck. He wins his competitions relying on his ability rather than hard-earned skill even though he is supposedly a good smith even without it, and there are a few other points into the story that just feel like he rolled well on some cosmic random number generator. I know most cultivation novels have that "Cheat" that the MC's get, but this one just leaves me with the feeling that he doesn't deserve it. Despite that, as I said, I do enjoy the story. The characters aren't as one-dimensional as they are in most Xianxia. There are a few too many people that faun over the MC, but everyone has a valid reason for doing what they do at the very least. Anyway, overall it's solid. Not without its flaws, but it's better than 80% of the garbage out there.

If you get confused by the synopsis this is basically a blacksmith novel with a bit of fightning, arrogant young master, ass licking young master and ascending to immortality with his blacksmithing skills
