Strongest Hammer God

Chapter 527 Seekers

”Finally!” Kyle shouted as he created an overarching framework for all pure Rank S Metal Materials.

Despite comprehending all the available materials in just a day, it took him five entire years to create and understand the remainder.

He was in luck that the history of this world had created about 70% of the necessary materials.

If it had only had 60%, Kyle would be here for decades.

If it had only had 50%, it might have taken over a century to guess the remainder.

As Kyle comprehended the Fragment of Rank S Metal Materials, he incorporated it into his Law of Metal.

This increased the power of his Law of Metal by quite a bit.

Moments later, Kyle crafted his new hammer.

He created the perfect Rank S Material, which was better than all potentially existing Rank SS Materials.

Then, his Law of Metal increased the power to a theoretical Rank SSS Material, and it was even the perfect Rank SSS Material.

As Kyle carried his hammer, he finally felt like it was heavy again.

This thing was not easy to swing, but that was how it was supposed to be.

ʼBased on my power, I should be between an Advanced and Fulfilled Transcendent. An Advanced Transcendent has understood a Pure Level Two Law.ʼ

ʼA Standard Transcendent knows a Pure Level One Law, which should be one point of power. A Pure Level Two Law should be two points of power.ʼ

ʼIf I only used two Elements as my Complex Law, I would have a Complex Law that gives 1.5 points of power. However, since Complex Laws are much better in combat than Pure Laws, it essentially has two points of actual power.ʼ

ʼI used three Pure Level One laws, which gives my Law of Meteor two points of power, but as a Complex Law, it exhibits 2.5 points of power.ʼ

ʼThat would put me on the level of a powerful Advanced Transcendent.ʼ

ʼA Fulfilled Transcendent uses at least one Pure Level Two Law and one other Pure Law to make their Complex Law, giving it, at least, a power of 2.5 points, which is increased to three points.ʼ

ʼI am between those two levels.ʼ

Kyle looked at the World Ceiling.

ʼThis world is not built to contain actual Transcendents. Thereʼs a chance that I can break through it with enough power.ʼ

Kyle readied his hammer and filled it with Meteor Ether.

Then, he struck the ceiling with all of his power.

BOOOOM!

The ceiling vibrated far stronger than the last time he had struck it, but there still wasnʼt even a crack.

Kyle hit the ceiling several times more, but nothing changed. ʼNot strong enough yet,ʼ he thought.

Kyle narrowed his eyes as he looked at his hammer.

ʼI need to become stronger! There has to be a way out of this place!ʼ

Kyle threw a glance at the world.

Within the last five years, things had changed again.

There was a shocking number of Warriors.

The Monsters were still extremely dangerous, but the Ferocious Beasts were no longer a big problem for the people.

Kyle could feel that the world was no longer as bad.

Something inside of him told him that the Karmic Luck he was receiving and losing was equalizing.

He was no longer losing Karmic Luck, but he was also not gaining it.

Kyle narrowed his eyes. ʼJust have to keep going! I refuse to believe that there is no way out of this!ʼ

The next moment, he charged into the ground before entering the stream of Yin-Wind.

He continued towards the east, went past the World Wall, and came out in the isolated space between the walls.

Then, Kyle looked at the mountains of Yin-Metal.

There were so many different materials there!

Kyle grabbed the first material and looked at it.

It was a round ball of energy that tried to cut Kyle.

ʼComposition first,ʼ Kyle thought.

As he started looking at the materials, he noticed that comprehending them was much harder than comprehending the Rank S Metals.

Comprehending just one of them took three days due to how alien they felt.

However, Kyle had enough time.

He spent all his time comprehending the materials, and time passed.

It took him almost an entire decade to understand them, and he finally comprehended the Fragment of Yin-Metal Composition.

ʼThis canʼt be the Base Fragment,ʼ Kyle thought. ʼThis was too easy.ʼ

ʼSebastian said that the Fragment of Lightningʼs Energy was the Base Fragment, but he also said that the Base Fragment of Yin-Lightning wasnʼt the Fragment of Energy. The Fragment had changed.ʼ

ʼThe actual Base Fragment was the new one that Yang-Lightning didnʼt have. He called it the Fragment of Yin-Lightningʼs Vampirism. Itʼs the one that explains how Yin-Lightning can steal energy.ʼ

ʼIf thatʼs also the case with Yin-Metal, there should be a Fragment related to its ethereal properties, and that should be the Base Fragment.ʼ

ʼLetʼs continue!ʼ

Kyle continued comprehending the different Fragments of Yin-Metal.

Within another decade, he comprehended the Fragment of Yin-Metalʼs Expansion.

Another decade later, he got the Fragment of Yin-Metalʼs Hardness.

Apparently, despite the fact that Yin-Metal was ethereal, it still had an interesting concept of hardness.

The potential for hardness was there, but it wasnʼt using it.

Just as water could potentially turn to ice, Yin-Metal could potentially become hard.

After another decade, Kyle comprehended the Fragment of Yin-Metalʼs Focus.

By now, he had been Overseer for about 50 years, and the world had transformed significantly.

New duchies and kingdoms had been formed, but the truly powerful people were isolated hermits.

They simply did the same thing as Kyle, sitting in front of their respective Elements, trying to learn their Laws.

They were not part of the normal society.

They didnʼt join in wars or big battles.

After all, they didnʼt need to.

As Kyle saw that, he realized something.

ʼThatʼs why, huh?ʼ he thought.

ʼThey are not looking at others. They are not trying to rule the world.ʼ

ʼThey are only seeking power, or enlightenment, if you want to sound pretentious.ʼ

ʼGuess thatʼs why people like this are called Seekers.ʼ
