Inside a red-coloured hall, there was Ivor hitting the Anvil with his Soul Weapon. Ivor had created his own 7th-grade anvil, whetstone, and other necessary resources.
Ivor was currently forging a staff, this staff was currently dark silver it was a complex weapon he had been creating over the last 50 years, When he broke through he obtained a void stone and dark silver these were rare materials that contained strength and ability to expand without losing mass but instead increasing mass.
What Ivor was creating was a black staff that can change size but also acts as a storage space for capturing enemies, this meant that the staff had a prison build inside. The Prison was a nine-storied pagoda and the other space was his temporary home if he wanted a place to sleep while outside.
Ivor just finished the last hit and the room shined, it was a sign that a 7th-grade weapon was created also Ivor noticed he broke through to the next stage as well.
The Soul Transformation worked with 10 stages and they worked by the size and strength of Soul Transformation Realm.
They were Small world, Middle-Small, Large Small to Small-Middle World, Middle World, Large Middle World to Small-Large World, Middle-Larger, Large World and the last stage was Peak World.
Peak World would contain mountains, and large amounts of space for him to store life forms as in beast and grow plants that he plants or naturally born plants can be born within.
Ivor just happened to break through a major stage, he his now a Large world stage cultivator. He has formed many mountains within and a artifical sun and moon also there is a sea with multiple Islands.
In order for Ivor to reach such a stage he had to refine his hammer and increase it strength while understanding more of his divine soul world well as the hammer.
Currently Ivor did not know how storng he was but he didn't care either, he just wanted to forge but he noticed a problem, he was running out of ideas.
He belived it was time to venture outside of the cave and find inspiration.
*Ding
[Time Formation shutting down]
The time formation shut down and all the Qi gathered within 500 years suddenly spread out to all the cornors of the cave, even soldier outside felt a slight increase of Qi.
Nellie the elephant infact had just broken to Soul Formation stage from the sudden change of Qi.
Outside the door there were few soldiers but they were middle or peak adult stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
"Did you feel that?"
"Yes... Olly report this to Minister Zuo."
"i'll be right back sir." Left Olly.
Back inside the cave Ivor called everyone also Nellie.
"Lord, how may we serve you?" asked Steel.
"I Will leave this cave for sometime, but don't worry I will increase your cultivation to Peak Soul Formation stage and make it possible for you to cultivate on your own."
"Really Sir!" asked the smith excitedly.
Ivor asked the system how many Supreme Spirit Stones he had left and found out he had 500 thousand, he was baffeled but apparently getting to soul formation stage he was given 100 thousand and getting to Soul Transaformation stage he was given 400 thousand.
Ivor then added 10 thousand to each servant making them Peak Divine Soul, while he was doing this he added engravings onto them making it possible for them to cultivate, also they will be a bti in cultivation since there cultivation was forced giving them a set back but they had no life span.
Ivor left some materials for them to use to create things they desired. Ivor had a lot to spare due getting mass amounts of rewards for creating 3 6th grade weapons.
The Ice Sword, Never Ending Whip and Dragon Spear these were weapons he created in 150 years but then he had multiple 5th and 4th grade also the 7th grade staff he forged.
Ivor walked towards the large wooden doors with Nellie. Nellie was excited he had never seen sun or grass but his FireWater waves were surging out of excited but Ivor used his soul to calm down Nellie.
Ivor Changed his appearance back to the old man with long white hair and a long smooth white beard and using the 7th grade staff as walking stick.
Ivor opened the door and walked out closing the door behind him.
"STOP!" This was the word he heard first when he walked out.
"May I ask Why?" Asked Ivor with a slight confused face.
"In the name of the emperor, you are under suspicion of killing families of the empire!" Stated a Late-Adult Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator.
"I have not killed... may I talk to someone about this?" asked Ivor, he wanted this cleared up.
Before the soldier could take action a man walked in with thousand people behind him.
This was Minister Zuo and he had brought a Thousand man army containing Golden core and Nascent Soul cultivators.
"It seems something serious happened here." Said Ivor still with calm voice.
"Senior, years ago families of our empire were slaughtered here." Minister Zuo told ivor.
"Oh, well if you strike it will amplify the attack and rebound it." Answered Ivor with a slight lie the other option was his servant but that didn't matter.
"Why would you create such a lethal door." This was a random soldier who was an diciple within the Li family.
Minister Zuo and the rest look at him with and expression of saying "Are you an idiot, it's of course for protection?!?!"
Bur Ivor Answered with a simple answer "I wanted my privacy."
"Sir, you still need to come back to the empire for killing our people." said Minister Zuo.
"Why, no one here can even beat Nellie?" Said Ivor while patting a small firewater elephant who was playing on dirt and rolling about.
"Really.. that baby elephant... it doesn't even have a cultivation." said a Golden Core soldeir.
"oh... no no... Nellie is in the Soul Formation stage... I agree he is a little weak but cute." Ivor said these words casually but everyone else stiffened even Minsiter Zuo.
"Great Senior.... Please would you like to visit our Emperor as guest..." Minister Zuo was quick, he noticed there kingdom can be in extreme dangour if he wanted to cause trouble.
"Oh... well thats now different, do i get free food... i have no money but few weapons, i can give for the invite." said Ivor, his mood seemed to keep changing from agressive to calm always depending on the situation... in fact he was a bit mad from being inside that cave for over 600 years from the age of 13.
Ivor pulled out a low-4th grade weapon and dropped it on the ground. Minsiter ZUo walked up and picked it up and bowed to Ivor as a thanks, he didn't dare to inspect it in worry of disrespecting him.
"Sir... may I know your name?" asked Minister Zuo.
"Ivor"
"Senior Ivor, My name is Lei Zuo. I am the Minsiter of Intellegence."
"Now... can we go i haven't been out for 600 years." Ivor once again said words that made others realise how old this man was and how dangerous he could be.
Ivor hoped on Nellie just after Nellie changed his size to a normal elephant while the other marched behind. If a pass byer were to see this, they would think they were going to a battle of no return due to serious faces of all the soldiers.
