Dual God Strength Hammers

The Dual God Strength Hammers, also called the Dual Legendary Hammers, are Zhou Weiqing's paired God Tier weapons and the first piece of the Ringless Ground Purging Set. Their defining trick is a freely switchable division between a real hammer and an illusory one, turning Zhou's immense strength into both a direct weapon and a deception.

History

First consolidation and revealed deception

Zhou receives the single Legendary scroll from Huyan Aobo and first uses its Consolidated Equipment in battle against Ming Hua. The dark-gold release forms two oversized, spiked hammers marked with a crying face and a smiling face. Although presented as a pair, one is real and one is illusory; Zhou can reverse those roles at will, causing a defender to commit to a blow that passes harmlessly through while the real hammer strikes elsewhere. The weapon also carries the God Protective Aura associated with its God Tier design. (Chapter 44)

Zhou quickly makes the hammers a mainstay of his close combat. Their faces let him deceive Ming Wu into guarding the wrong strike, while their broad heads can shelter him like small shields and their strength boost compounds Demonic Change and other physical enhancements. The weapon remains powerful rather than absolute: stronger opponents can repel it, and its protective aura is available only under the normal limits of summoning God Tier Consolidated Equipment. (Chapters 44, 51, 81, and 102–104)

First piece of a greater set

Duan Tianlang identifies the hammers as the first piece of the Hate Ground no Handle lineage, later called the Ringless Ground Purging Set. He explains that the design improves on the older strength set by preserving the weapon's mass while adding the real-and-illusory mechanism. As Zhou adds the Yin Yang Giant Spirit Palms and further armor pieces, the hammers benefit from the set's compounded strength and become channels for his techniques and Stored Skills. (Chapters 142, 148, and 157–158)

When Zhou completes the original ten-piece set, the hammers double in size, take on rose emblems, and both display smiling faces. With the eleventh perfected piece active, they can merge into a three-meter long-handled hammer whose head is nearly a meter wide and around which a dragon image coils. Zhou uses that form and the full set's strength against Fen Tian, though he eventually withdraws the weapon when brute-force exchanges cannot secure a final victory. (Chapters 770 and 833)

Abilities and properties

  • Reality switching: One hammer is solid and the other illusory, and Zhou can exchange those states at will. A false blow can draw a block and overextend an opponent, while the real hammer delivers the damaging strike. The smiling face initially signifies the false hammer and the crying face the real one. (Chapters 44, 51, and 148)
  • Strength and defense: The specialized Strength-type weapons magnify Zhou's physical power, especially in Demonic Change and alongside other pieces of his Legendary Set. Their enormous heads also function as improvised shields, and their summoning produces a Consolidating Equipment God Protective Aura. (Chapters 44, 81, 102–104, and 130)
  • Skill channel: Zhou can release his Skills through the hammers without sockets and with increased effect. Recorded uses include Spatial Rend-enhanced impacts, the Ward of the Demon God, and concentrated lightning attacks. At his later peak, he compresses the Astral Divine Territory onto the merged hammerhead. (Chapters 44, 60, 158, 190, and 833)
  • Completed forms: Completion of the ten-piece set enlarges the hammers and makes their movement distort or collapse nearby space. The perfected eleven-piece set permits their merger into a giant long-handled hammer and supports enormous projected strikes. These effects depend on the larger Ringless Ground Purging Set rather than the first hammer piece alone. (Chapters 770 and 833)
  • Limits: The hammers do not erase disparities in cultivation or attribute. Zhan LingTian knocks the crying-face hammer back into Zhou despite its strength boost, and Fen Tian's Destruction Energy eventually breaks free of the hammer's restraint even after the set is perfected. (Chapters 103 and 833)
