Douluo: Trinity, I run through the timeline.

Where do these characteristics come from?

"Soul beasts, of course. Their bloodline, soul skills, and even body parts—there's bound to be a suitable one."

Makino's answer came out without hesitation.

“I’ve been thinking for a while now that besides soul rings and soul bones, soul beasts actually have many valuable parts, but the technology wasn’t advanced enough to utilize them before.”

"You make it sound so easy. Soul beasts are almost extinct now. Even if I hunt soul beasts, my quota is limited," Zhenhua said helplessly.

“Sea spirit beasts,” Mu Ye said. “The ocean is so vast that the number of sea spirit beasts is more than the total number of continental spirit beasts 20,000 years ago, at least ten times more.”

This isn't determined by area; strictly speaking, the density of a soul beast can also take volume into account!
The ocean is more than twice the size of the landmass, and it also often varies in depth.
Makino took out a dragon scale.

"I've kept the corpse of the sea dragon we ate. Its scales contain a certain dragon's might, and the power in its blood is also unique. These can be used as special properties to be incorporated into ordinary metals."

A few black lines appeared on Zhenhua's forehead.

do not talk.

The tasks for labor and management are becoming increasingly heavy.

"It's still easy to find the characteristics. Even if Teacher Zhenhua doesn't like to hunt sea spirit beasts indiscriminately and is worried about causing new ecological damage, we can cooperate with the Spirit Pagoda. The Spirit Pagoda has many defective artificial spirits. We can take them over and maybe after secondary processing, they won't be defective anymore."

Su Ming also offered his thoughts.

Zhenhua's vision went black.

He has now found a successor and just wants to train Su Ming to become a master craftsman as soon as possible before retiring.

Why did this successor give him such a big job?

Su Ming's proposed approach was to use defective artificial souls to represent special characteristics, which was a completely new field.

Does the soul count as life?

If an artificial soul is successfully fused into metal, is it considered spirit-forged metal or ordinary rare metal?
In addition, can the soul skills contained in artificial souls be considered as the inheritance of the corresponding metal? Would that be considered soul forging?
"Teacher Zhenhua, please help me out. I'm hiding in the Spirit Pagoda because of the Light Orb, but this can't go on forever."

Su Ming clasped his hands together and looked at his teacher with anticipation.

Zhenhua felt embarrassed to refuse.

He could also tell what Su Ming was thinking from Su Ming's words.

"You want to compete for the position of Tower Master?"

"Ah."

"Alright, but the Blacksmith Association is neutral and won't interfere in any of your internal affairs. As for cooperation, I can take a different approach and work with Zhang Tianyang."

Su Ming was overjoyed.

"Thank you teacher!"

With this project, Zhang Tianyang's position in the Spirit Pagoda will be more secure, and he may even rise to a higher level.

Moreover, having such a stable cooperative project with the Blacksmith Association in his hands is more conducive to cultivating relationships between their faction and other high-ranking members of the Spirit Pagoda.

After all, everyone wants a four-word battle armor, but the Spirit Pagoda has had a bad relationship with the Blacksmith Association in recent years. If they try to talk to Zhenhua directly in the name of the Spirit Pagoda's higher-ups, all they'll get is a "get in line" response.

If Zhenhua can forge a set of four-word battle armor made of Heavenly Forged Metal in a year, that would be considered highly efficient. There are countless Soul Masters on the continent who want four-word battle armor.

If you really have to wait in line, you probably won't get a turn in your lifetime.

Therefore, Zhang Tianyang, who has projects in cooperation with the Forging Association, will become a hot commodity.

[Fight One]

Eyes of ice and fire.

Su Ming looked very pleased.

This is the power of the Trinity.

To be honest, he originally only thought about using his little idea of ​​imbuing spirits to help him open a source of faith in the Douluo Continent III era. He never expected that Mu Ye's expansion of artificial rare metals would bring him even greater gains.

“The soul beasts on the Dou San continent have become extinct, and we need to consider all sorts of miscellaneous issues, but there wasn’t one in Dou Yi!” Moreover, even with some technology that Su Ming brought from the future in the Dou Yi era, mining rare metals was still a long-term project.

Ten years?

Su Ming estimated that he would soon become a god, if not yet. What kind of conveniences would he be able to enjoy then?
The greatest benefit of mining rare metals is that it helps Su Ming establish a foundation. He can directly use the properties of these rare metals that Dou San has already explored to stably output 'new technologies,' show off his abilities in front of others, and reap the benefits of their faith.

But for him personally, the idea of ​​creating artificial rare metals proposed by Makino is the direction he wants to work towards.

"Whether it's materials from a soul beast or artificial soul spirits, as long as they have characteristics, they can theoretically be used as the core for metal to transform into rare metals. For example, the ice and fire power here should also be considered a characteristic."

"My level is still too low. My development progress is slow. Now that I have Professor Zhenhua's help, it may be faster, but it is still not enough."

and so--

"Old Master Yi, I'm begging you."

Amazing wisdom, start!
【Dou Er】

Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy.

"Elder Yi, I want to combine the properties of metals myself."

Electrolux was a little confused when he was suddenly asked the question.

You need to ask me about forging?

This has nothing to do with me, does it?

"That's right. The properties of rare metals are specific. I'm wondering if I can turn the properties I want into the properties of metals, just like Soul Masters. Although they need rare metals, the materials that can be used to make core laws also include various soul beast materials."

As Electrolux listened to Su Ming's explanation, he gradually understood what he meant.

"It's a good idea."

He showed interest and was now starting to think about it.

"It's highly feasible. Wait a moment, let me check it out first."

Electrolux reviewed the entire crafting system for magical equipment from his hometown.

He is a remnant soul, and only has a portion of his memories. However, as the remnant soul recovers, his memories are gradually reviving, and he has now remembered many things.

Although the crafting system for magical equipment is made up of fragmented knowledge, it allowed Elex to discover many key techniques.

If these technologies were applied to Douluo Continent, specifically to Su Ming's spirit-enhancing technology.
Su Ming waited for a whole month.

That's right, it's only because Electrolux is still active that Su Ming would suspect he's asleep.

A month is not a long time.

However, in the third installment of the Douluo Continent series, Zhenhua had already helped Su Ming to imbue ordinary metals with spirituality, meaning that the technique of imbuing metals with spirituality appeared in the third era of Douluo Continent.

This is a decent technique, giving ordinary metals a kind of spirituality. It doesn't have any special properties, but it can be used for practice, directly reducing the cost of practice for blacksmiths.

To this end, Zhenhua even held a special exchange meeting for Su Ming.

Headquarters of the Forging Masters Association.

First floor.

As is customary, this day of the month is when Zhenhua, the president of the Forging Masters Association, shares forging techniques. However, the atmosphere here today seems different, and the number of people gathered is alarmingly large.

Some blacksmiths spotted the reporters and the live-streaming equipment. The square outside the Blacksmiths Association building was packed with people watching the large screen in the square, eagerly anticipating the exchange meeting that Zhenhua had mentioned.

　Tsk, it seems inevitable that there will be plot points that require frequent time shifts. I came up with a solution: I added 【】 to terms like "Battle 1", "Battle 2", and "Battle 3" as time anchors.

　　Same routine as today: I'll write two chapters first, and the third chapter will serve as the starting point for this afternoon's writing. I'll go and revise the first hundred or so chapters, changing the time anchors to the [斗几] format.
