Chapter 155 Makino's New Idea (Please Subscribe!!!)
"You want to try it too?"

Dugu Bo could tell what Su Mingyi was thinking just by looking at his interested expression.

"Of course, is that not allowed?"

"If the soul is not strong enough, it will face great pressure when separated from the body."

"My mental strength is still—"

Before Su Ming could finish speaking, Dugu Bo interrupted him.

"No matter how strong your mental strength is, it takes time for it to be reflected in your soul. Just like your blood and qi, which exceed the level of your physical body due to the power of your blood source, driving your physical growth, but it cannot immediately bring your physical strength to the corresponding level."

The same applies to the soul. Strong spiritual power can drive the growth of the soul, but it is not instantaneous; it takes time.

Just as the human body grows, the soul also needs to grow. Even if you have strong blood and energy, your body is only twelve years old. This is a measure of your physical development. The same applies to your soul; your soul is only twelve years old.

Moreover, the soul is different from the body. The body can easily obtain nutrients that it can directly absorb, while the soul can only be shaped and refined over a long period of time.

Makes sense.

But it didn't work.

Su Ming is not a twelve-year-old soul.

However, he did not ignore the risks and try it directly in front of Dugu Bo, which would be tantamount to slapping Dugu Bo in the face.

He simply let himself, who was second or third in command, try it out.

"Just focus on your normal cultivation. There's no point in sensing so much right now. But given your current setup, you should still try out a few things before you reach level 70 and get your seventh spirit ring. This will benefit your seventh spirit skill."

"it is good."

Su Ming returned to the vicinity of the forging platform and began meditating and cultivating.

"After absorbing the ten-thousand-year-old blood vine, plus the residual medicinal power of the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, my soul power is only level forty-five."

The Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum raised Su Ming's level from thirty-six to forty, which is only level four.

According to Su Ming's estimate, at least two more levels of soul power are stuck.

So, by this calculation, a ten-thousand-year soul ring only increased by three levels.

talent.
I wonder what Dugu Bo would think if he knew what Su Ming was thinking.

The sun rises and the moon sets.

Su Ming resumed his regular cultivation practice.

The forging technique was gradually improved through his and Xiao Jin's efforts, and the ultimate level of spirit empowerment relied less and less on the power of ice and fire from the Yin-Yang Well.

"This is a technology that I completely pioneered. Even if it is used in Dou San, it is a technology that transcends time."

"Xiao Ming always has some strange ideas."

After listening to Su Ming's idea of ​​imbuing his spirit, Zhenhua chuckled and ignored it.

The purpose of imbuing metals with spirit is to give them a spiritual quality.

But rare metals already possess spirituality, so why would they need any further spiritual imbuing?

"But teacher, what if the process of imbuing the metal with spirit allows it to enter an energy form?"

"What do you mean? Explain in detail."

Zhenhua became interested.

"It's a rare metal without any spirituality. We use the spirituality of a soul to guide it into the rare metal. During this process, if the external spirituality can perfectly absorb the characteristics of the rare metal, it can simultaneously remove other impurities from the metal and complete its energy transformation."

A glint of light flashed in Zhenhua's eyes. If there were rare metals that lacked spirituality, then this method would indeed be reasonable.

The spirituality inherent in rare metals is naturally integrated with the metal itself, and it is impossible for it to devour the characteristics of rare metals. But what if it is an external spirituality?

"A good idea, but unfortunately there are no rare metals that do not possess spirituality."

Su Ming certainly knew this.

But since he shared this idea with Zhenhua, he must have found a solution.

"That's the idea, but we can also be flexible. For example, we can find two rare metals and graft their spiritual properties onto each other."

Su Ming spoke with great enthusiasm.

"For example, if there is a piece of pure silver and a piece of magic silver, we can guide the spirituality of the pure silver into the magic silver, and then guide the spirituality of the magic silver into the pure silver. Then, using the spirit-enhancing technique I just mentioned, we can forge both rare metals into an energy state. It may seem complicated, but the technique itself is not difficult and can lay a better foundation for the subsequent fusion and forging of multi-element spirit alloys and soul forging."

Zhenhua frowned, pondering the feasibility.

According to Su Ming, he roughly deduced the level of this forging technique, which was roughly equivalent to spirit forging and ordinary fusion forging. It was of little use to a level six forging master, but it would have a very profound impact on subsequent three-in-one fusion forging, four-in-one fusion forging, and even higher-level soul forging.

From the very beginning, it involves forging spiritual metals in an energy state. Whether it's spirit forging or fusion forging, it lays a better foundation and naturally benefits subsequent fusion forging.

"Haha, that's a very insightful idea."

Makino's voice came through.

Along with his voice came a rich fragrance.

Su Ming turned his head and saw Mu Ye pushing a small food cart toward him.

"Mr. Makino, what are we having for dinner today? It smells delicious."

"I caught a thousand-year-old sea dragon for you today, and I added some thousand-year-old spiritual herbs that I had saved up before." Mu Ye laughed, "Haven't you been clamoring to strengthen your physique? The tendons and meat of this sea dragon are both highly nourishing and very useful for body tempering."

He waved his hand and took out a dining table, placing all four dishes from the food cart onto it.

The three sat down and continued their discussion while enjoying the food.

"The theory of spirit infusion is good, but guiding the exchange of spirituality between two different rare metals is still too difficult to master."

Makino's words caught Su Ming's attention.

"Does Professor Makino have any other simple and direct methods?"

Su Ming knew that his teacher was also a thoughtful Soul Master, and that he was quite talented to think of integrating Soul Spirits into Mecha.

“Haha, of course there is. Isn’t your foundation for spiritualization just rare metals without spirituality? Then use rare metals without spirituality.” Mu Ye raised his hand to signal Su Ming and Zhen Hua to stop talking and then said his idea in one breath: “Yes, rare metals all have spirituality, so why not try ordinary metals?”

Common metals?
"Imbuing with spirit, since spirituality can be acquired and integrated into metal, and can also absorb special properties, why can't we let spirituality absorb special properties and integrate into ordinary metal?"

Su Ming was stunned.

He didn't even bother to chew the dragon tendon in his mouth, swallowing it whole and asking, "Teacher Makino, are you talking about our man-made rare metals?"

"Pretty much." Makino chuckled. "The Spirit Pagoda can create artificial souls, so it's reasonable for our Blacksmith Association to create rare metals, right?"

Su Ming gave a thumbs up.

“I think it’s doable.”

Zhenhua's lips twitched.

What I mean by "it feels feasible" is...

Who will ultimately explore and develop this idea?
Even a fool could figure out the answer.

"Hehe, Teacher Zhenhua, this spirit-enhancing technique may have to be handled by you."

"What do you mean by 'hand it over to me'?" Zhenhua's face hardened. "Your idea is good, but have you considered where the special properties will come from? Are you going to take the properties of existing rare metals and use them to artificially create rare metals from ordinary metals?"
