Douluo Dragon King: Nine Dragons Break the Abyss

Chapter 55: Learning Spiritual Forging
"Pa bang bang~"

The door of the forging room was pushed open and applause came from outside the room.

Many blacksmiths who had completed the assessment couldn't help but cast curious glances over here.

A young man who had just passed the fourth-level blacksmith examination ran over to the middle-aged man with a big beard with a look of joy on his face. He asked curiously:
"Teacher, what's going on over there? I think I saw His Majesty Zhenhua?"

Every blacksmith who grew up in Tiandou City regards Zhenhua as his idol, and this young man is no exception.

The bearded middle-aged man glanced at his apprentice, who was showing his pride, and decided to give him a beating:
"Your Highness Zhenhua's disciple took the fourth-level blacksmith assessment today, and it looks like he passed."

"His Majesty Zhenhua is accepting disciples? A fourth-level blacksmith, isn't that the same level as me?"

"Haha." The middle-aged man with a big beard tapped his disciple's forehead unhappily. "You really think highly of yourself. It is said that the disciple accepted by His Majesty Zhenhua is not even ten years old this year. How can you compare with him?"

"Ten...ten years old?!"

The young man thought back to when he was ten years old, when he seemed to be still practicing the simplest knocking.

……

"Excellent, truly excellent. Another extraordinary genius has emerged in the world of blacksmiths."

Boyun said loudly.

Qiangu Qitian said modestly: "Uncle Master, you are too kind. I was just lucky."

"It's not a fluke."

Mu Xi muttered softly.

She came to Qiangu Qitian and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a silk scarf.

"Why don't you take a break after forging a piece of metal? The test time limit is three hours~"

There was a hint of blame in Mu Xi's tone, but more of it was heartache.

Qiangu Qitian smiled slightly: "It's okay, Sister Xi."

"Alright, alright, Xiaoxi, you can feel sorry for your brother Xiaotian later. Now let's determine the quality of the metal."

Zhenhua said with a bit of a smile.

The old father Mu Chen standing by had a blank expression on his face, as if he had heard nothing.

For them, the quality of the metal can be seen in the observation room, but the regulations for the fourth-level blacksmith assessment state that the examiner must personally verify the metal grade.

As high-ranking members of the Blacksmith Association, they cannot break the rules.

Qiangu Qitian pulled Mu Xi aside, made room, and handed over the forging table to these big guys.

The three parts were passed back and forth among several people, with sounds of admiration and amazement.

"It's too perfect. It's a perfect thousand forgings. There's hardly any impurities to be seen."

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe that anyone could forge a piece of work that was one of the thousand-forged items in the fourth-level blacksmith examination."

That’s right, among the three metals forged by Qiangu Qitian, the quality of refined gold has reached the best quality among the thousand forgings - the first quality among the thousand forgings.

When the quality of metal reaches the first level of a thousand forgings, the metal will have the ability to initially fuse with soul power.

This means that it can be used to make battle armor.

Of course, this is only the basis for making battle armor, and it is also the material used by most battle armor masters to make battle armor.

After all, there are still only a few rich young men like Qiangu Zhangting who use spiritual alloy to make one-word battle armor.

The price difference is more than a hundred times.

Spiritual alloy is a metal that can only be made by a sixth-level blacksmith.

After the three finished products were inspected one by one by the masters, Zhenhua, as the teacher, officially put the four-star badge symbolizing the fourth-level blacksmith for Qiangu Qitian.

After watching Qiangu Qitian's Level 4 Blacksmith Assessment, these busy guild leaders also needed to rush back to deal with their own affairs. Before leaving, they all gave Qiangu Qitian a gift.

There are only a few common people like Qiangu Dongfeng who give money as soon as they meet someone. Most of the things given to Qiangu Qitian by the elders are beneficial to his cultivation.

The most generous among them is the president from Gengxin City.

He gave Qiangu Qitian a set of more than twenty kinds of rare metals!
Of course, except for the most precious gold and water.

That thing was very rare, and he didn't have much of it.

Qiangu Qitian accepted them all and kept the kindness in his heart.

When he arrived at Mu Chen's place, he gave Qiangu Qitian a notebook.

When Zhenhua saw Mu Chen's gift, the corners of his mouth twitched.

Whose disciple is this?

The others were a little surprised when they saw Mu Chen's gift.

No one would think that the gift Mu Chen gave was worthless.

Those are the forging notes of a holy craftsman.

Every blacksmith has his or her own diary, which records every detail of their forging, including their insights and experiences.

At a super-large auction, a Saint Craftsman's Notes from two hundred years ago were sold at a price of 30 million federal coins.

Because in addition to insights and experiences, it also records a formula for smelting six kinds of metals.

Of course, Muchen also had his own researched formula for melting and forging.

This was originally a treasure that would not be easily passed on to others, but now it was given directly to Qiangu Qitian.

Qiangu Qitian took it solemnly and put it away carefully.

Mu Xi looked at Qiangu Qitian with a smile on her face, feeling like a son selling his father's land without any regret.

The presidents left the Tiandou City Blacksmith Association headquarters one after another, and Mu Xi also returned to Tianhai City with his father Mu Chen.

She looked at Qiangu Qitian with some reluctance as usual, but still said nothing.

Qiangu Qitian did not leave. He came here not just to take the exam to become a level 4 blacksmith.

The master and the apprentice went to the forging room for daily training, ready to start the next teaching.

"You are now a fourth-level blacksmith, and a fourth-level blacksmith of high level. If you can forge refined gold to the first level, then spiritual forging is not far away."

Spirit forging is the symbol of a fifth-level blacksmith.

What is soul forging? One step to heaven, ten thousand souls forging.

This is a threshold for blacksmiths, a watershed that distinguishes geniuses from ordinary people, and a symbol of high social status.

Once you complete the spiritual forging, you will become a master blacksmith, and your status will far exceed that of other professions at the same level.

The mind is forged, this is a process of constant exchange and communication between the blacksmith and the metal.

Every time the blacksmith hammers the metal, he maintains the spirituality of the metal after thousands of forgings, and then through the injection of soul power, guides the metal to generate its own life.

To give birth to life, this is the great power that only the Creator possesses!

"Then teacher... shall we learn spiritual forging today?"

Qiangu Qitian was eager to try.

Learning spirit forging in advance can make him have a deeper understanding of the levels of life. Moreover, it won’t be long before Qiangu Qitian will awaken the third dragon soul, which happens to be closely related to life.

Zhenhua smiled and said, "Spiritual forging requires more than just forging skills. Let me show you what spiritual forging is."
