Chapter 98: Enlightenment and Soul Forging (Please Read More!!!)
Looking at the wonderful scene in front of him, Zhu Jiuyang's eyes were full of fascination.
This is forging!
"Xiao Ming, I just had a special feeling"
After admiring his masterpiece, Zhu Jiuyang immediately told Su Ming about his feelings during forging and told Su Ming all the experience he had accumulated this time.
"Teacher, you must be a Soul Douluo to be able to hold on. Otherwise, if you were a normal person, whose martial spirit could last this long?"
Su Ming knew what Zhu Jiuyang meant, and could only helplessly tell Zhu Jiuyang the reality.
The reality is that even though he knew that this was the path after spiritual forging, he had no way to try it.
Not enough cultivation.
"Like you said, teacher, after spiritual forging, there is definitely a further spiritual forging metal inheritance. This inheritance may be a kind of talent, different from the talent born when the spirituality is awakened."
Although he directly told Zhu Jiuyang that his cultivation was not high enough to try this method, Su Ming still "thought" for a while and analyzed Zhu Jiuyang's findings.
"If Thousand Forgings is about awakening the spirit of metal, and Spirit Forging is about giving life to metal, then the realm you experienced, teacher, should be about bestowing inheritance upon metal, or giving it a soul. I intend to name it Soul Forging."
Zhu Jiuyang had no objection to his disciple naming the child after him. Not only that, he was very satisfied with the name Su Ming gave him.
"Soul Forging, what a Soul Forging!"
"Of course, teacher, we are only level five blacksmiths in the new blacksmith system. Level six blacksmiths are also at the spirit forging level, but they need to master the techniques of fusion forging." Su Ming said: "Compared to soul forging, I think we should thoroughly study fusion forging first."
Zhu Jiuyang nodded.
"That makes sense. The jade silver you discovered earlier, a fusion of sunken silver and magic silver, is indeed superior to any single rare metal in every way."
He agreed with Su Ming's statement.
Instead of trying to figure out soul forging, it is better to lay a solid foundation first, master fusion forging, and then elevate fusion forging to the level of spirit forging.
"Actually, Teacher, you've entered a special state today. After listening to what you said, I feel that fusion forging is even more important."
"oh?"
Facing Zhu Jiuyang's doubtful gaze, Su Ming explained seriously, "I think our lack of Soul Forging isn't just in forging skills, but in our thinking."
This was also his realization. Just now, a flash of inspiration came into his mind, and he had a new understanding of soul forging.
Not only that, he also found Zhenhua in real time during the Douluo Dalu era to verify his own insights.
"Fusion forging is absolutely crucial to soul forging. If the so-called bestowal inheritance is merely the inheritance of the blacksmith, then it's too shallow. After all, a blacksmith needs to be proficient in forging and also master the inheritance of different metals. This is simply unbelievable."
"Rather than saying that the forger's own martial spirit is inherited and bestowed upon the soul-forged metal, it's better to say that the characteristics of the metals are integrated to create the so-called talent!"
"And what is needed here is fusion forging!"
Zhu Jiuyang's breathing became rapid.
"Xiao Ming, you are truly a natural blacksmith!"
The future Zhenhua also gave Su Ming a positive reply.
The so-called spiritual alloy formula is actually a kind of inheritance. Different soul masters choose different spiritual alloys in the production of battle armor, which means they are choosing the inheritance that suits them, so that their martial souls can have more blessings from this inheritance.
After Su Ming finished speaking, he closed his eyes, sat down cross-legged, and further organized his thoughts.
Seeing this, Zhu Jiuyang did not disturb his disciples.
He began to recover on his own while thinking about what Su Ming had said.
"Forging, every spiritual alloy needs to be explored. Perhaps any two rare metals can be forged, but the fusion ratio and forging method also need to be explored. This will take a long time. It requires the subsequent development of the Blacksmith Association to improve it, not Xiao Ming and I."
"For Xiaoming and I, the key is a successful fusion forging formula that doesn't require extensive experimentation. That is, rare metals with similar properties or that are easily compatible. The fusion forging of these rare metals is the focus of Xiaoming and I's exploration."
"Xiao Ming and I have further refined the concept of rare metals. The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is searching all over the continent, and the association has temporarily gained control of two rare metal veins."
"But this is not enough. There are still too few types of rare metals. We need to find more rare metals to find easier combinations."
"This requires collecting rare metals on a larger scale and searching for rare metal veins on a larger scale. Before this can happen, the association must have sufficient support."
"cooperate."
Zhu Jiuyang attached more importance to the upcoming negotiations.
At the same time, he once again began to think about the problems he was unwilling to face.
"Soul Hall, Qian Family."
Half a month has passed since the Blacksmith Association auctioned off twelve pieces of spiritual metal.
Su Ming felt that the atmosphere in the association had become strange, and he always had a vague feeling that he was being spied on.
"My faith's feeling is not wrong. It seems that all parties have sent people to investigate."
Under Ning Yuan's guidance, Su Ming found Sword Douluo Chen Xin.
"Senior, the opportunity to help my teacher hunt souls as promised should be right now."
Chen Xin didn't argue with Su Ming, but just nodded in agreement.
He didn't question that this was different from what had been agreed.
Once you strike, you strike.
Soul hunting or deterrence, it's all the same.
Seeing that Chen Xin had no objection, Su Ming breathed a sigh of relief. He left Chen Xin's meditation room and returned to the forging room. He also had his own forging room on the fifth floor.
When Su Ming left, Ning Yuan looked at his back, and Ning Fengzhi's instructions when he left the sect more than a year ago echoed in his mind.
"If the Blacksmith Association cooperates with the Spirit Hall during my time here, Uncle Jian will use his power to intimidate them. Feel free to use this as leverage to gain some benefits for the sect."
"What a pity, the Sect Master still missed one point. The Sect must start to restrain itself a bit." Ning Yuan thought secretly: "Zhu Jiuyang's soul did not use Elder Jian's opportunity to strike. This time, he used the opportunity in the transaction to deter others, not to sell a favor."
He sighed.
There were many flaws in Su Ming's cooperation with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, but he also took care of this initial shareholder, allowing the soul formation obtained by the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect to play a role for a year, giving them an excellent opportunity to win over forging talents and laying a good initial foundation in the Blacksmith Association.
Over the course of a year, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, relying on its wealth and possession of a soul formation, recruited a considerable number of blacksmiths from the Blacksmith Association.
"After this move, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect will no longer have the priority to recruit."
Ning Yuan knew this clearly.
But he also doesn't think it's a bad thing.
"After this, the association will form multiple factions to check and balance each other. Xiao Ming should also officially start spreading the spirit-infusing technique to outsiders."
