Shi Tianhao, Wang Lin and everyone else present was considerably knowledgeable and experienced by then. After sensing the aura coming from the erect metal bar that was seemingly holding up the heavens, they immediately recognized what it was. "The Malleable Holy Metal? So this Monkey seized the Malleable Holy Metal ore mines."
There are currently Six Mystical Metals in the world, but before the Middle Ages, there were seven, the final one being the Malleable Holy Metal. Its shape could be altered with ease, possessing highly confounding qualities, with its most unique trait being that it only had a single ore mine. The amount of reserves there was astronomical, all at prime quality and seemingly infinite.
However, by the Middle Ages, the entire ore mine miraculously disappeared, and the Malleable Holy Metal supposedly vanished from the face of the Grand Celestial World. No one expected that it had actually been seized by this Monkey.
