Douluo: Trinity, I run through the timeline.

Chapter 163 Everything is Ready (Please Subscribe!!!)
Zhenhua listened to Su Ming's method and fell into deep thought.

"Xiao Ming, doing it this way requires a high level of skill. Not only do you have to correctly imbue the spirit and adjust it in real time, but you also have to consider the variables of the spirit."

"Develop it first. If we can successfully complete a man-made rare metal experiment, we might have a different experience. Then we can go back and improve the previous technology. It will only be more efficient. Otherwise, no matter how easy or excellent the previous technology is, if it doesn't fit with our subsequent content, it will just be a castle in the air, good to look at but useless."

Zhenhua nodded upon hearing this.

That statement is correct.

He also picked a spirit orb, the spirit inside of which was also made of fire element, and was a fire monkey.

He had almost complete control over the Fire Monkey, and it even felt like he could crush it.

Compared to Su Ming, Zhenhua's power is undoubtedly more aggressive, and the minor mistakes that Su Ming mentioned may not exist for him.

At this moment, Makino had already heated up a piece of ordinary iron for each of them.

"Teacher, let me try first."

Su Ming was the first to try.

Then, at the crucial moment of forging, everything collapsed, the iron block shattered, and the soul dissipated.

The spirit cannot be integrated into the iron block!

This is a fatal problem.

After protecting Su Ming, Zhenhua immediately gathered the iron block and the remaining spiritual energy to sense its state.

His face was grave.

"As expected, there are far more problems than I imagined," he said. "This spirit ultimately lacks intelligence and cannot cooperate with our efforts to integrate into the metal."

Cooperate.

Not only must one refrain from moving things during the forging process, but one must also have the will to encroach upon the metal structure; otherwise, the forger alone cannot achieve this.

Spirituality, that's something really special.

"Can it infiltrate the spirituality of our souls?"

Su Ming put forward his idea.

Hearing this, Makino had something else to say.

“If that’s the case, why not just strip away the characteristics of the external soul, or even just a part of it? That way, this artificial soul can still live and you can continue to use it in the future. You can keep replicating it like this, which is equivalent to figuring out the forging technique of a template. If you succeed in one go, you can keep using it in the future.”

Makino's words touched Su Ming.

The same applies to Zhenhua.

When they had the idea of ​​using artificial souls to create artificial rare metals, they subconsciously felt that they were incorporating the artificial souls entirely into them.

Because the artificial spirits they understood were too weak. Like the two spirits they had just used, they were both at the ten-year level and their structures were fragile. Without the environment provided by the spirit orb, they would die within three days.

They don't even have the ability to survive on their own.

Such a tiny soul is naturally a disposable item.

However, Makino has now torn open this subconscious within them.

"Going back to the beginning, our initial need was simply for specific characteristics, and the purpose of using artificial souls to experiment was to achieve those characteristics."

"In that case, we should proceed step by step. Let's try using our souls first. By imbuing ordinary metals with spirituality and special characteristics using our souls, we can find a way to replace our souls with artificial ones."

Upon hearing Zhenhua's words, Su Ming gave a wry smile.

"Xiao Ming, what's wrong?"

"Teacher, I suddenly realized that imbuing metals with properties is similar to the inheritance of soul forging. Is the technology we envisioned for creating rare metals a Saint-level technology?"

Zhenhua was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes, of course it's the skill of a master craftsman." "Oh right, Xiao Ming, you're only a level six blacksmith."

Su Ming blinked, somewhat speechless.

"It's definitely impossible for you to attempt Soul Forging now. The basic requirements for Soul Forging are too high. Not only do you have to compress the entire Spirit Forging and Fusion process, which currently takes several hours, into less than an hour, but you also have to spend at least ten times that amount of time to imbue the metal with its inheritance. Even with your foundation, you would need at least a Soul King to attempt this, and you would also need a One-Word Battle Armor."

"However, you can dabble in this artificial rare metal, because the loss is not that high, and you can use it as a warm-up for the Soul Forging."

Zhenhua then told Su Ming to stay and participate in the subsequent research.

At the same time, he realized the problem and changed the main focus of the research, taking the lead himself.

【Dou Er】

"This is the forging principle of my plane."

Electrolux spent three days teaching Su Ming before he could clearly explain the forging philosophy of the Holy Demon Continent to him.

Su Ming covered his head, indicating that he couldn't digest it in a short time.

The forging processes on both sides are fundamentally different, and he was greatly impacted, needing time to gradually accept them.

"Haha, it's okay if you don't understand. Just keep developing your project, and I'll point out any problems you encounter."

"Thank you, Mr. Yi."

Two eras, two Su Mings, plus two external brains, to develop a brand-new forging technology.

This is Su Ming's advantage: he combines the wisdom of people from different eras.

He used to be a mere conveyor of knowledge, but now he's slowly starting to explore the field of developing new knowledge.

This is progress.

Not only Electrolux and the others, Su Ming also thought of Xuan Ziwen, and the sword fanatic Ji Juechen.

These are all talents that he can utilize across time and space.

"Phew, it's been half a month since we started developing the forging system, and we're still stuck."

The spirituality and characteristics of one's own soul are integrated into the metal to create artificial rare metals. No problem, this technology has been broken through.

But how do we utilize these external properties to integrate them into the metal?

Su Ming from Dou San is stuck in a bottleneck, and Zhen Hua also needs to keep trying and making mistakes.

Su Ming from Dou Er didn't have any materials, but he raised the question and discussed it theoretically with Electrolux.

"Let's find a batch of materials with these properties first."

Su Ming finally emerged from seclusion.

After clearing customs, he saw Su Can's message and headed towards Su Can's research institute.

"Grandpa, is the Blacksmiths' Association branch completed?"

"We're just waiting for you, the guild leader and branch sect master, to return to your positions."

Su Can stated that the family had resolved all the trivial matters, and now the association's branch had been established and was recruiting blacksmiths. Ten members had already joined the association and passed the Su family's assessment, expressing their willingness to delve deeper into blacksmithing.

The branch sects of the original sect have also been established.

It's not that the Su family is highly efficient, but rather that establishing a branch of the Body Sect is very simple; all you need to do is gather the necessary people.

No fixed mountain gate is needed; as long as there is a fixed place to stay, the Body Sect exists and serves as the spiritual anchor for all Body Sect disciples.

"The Soul Masters whose main body was taken to Snow Demon Mountain by your teacher a few years ago have all been brought back to our Su family. There are also some Soul Masters whose main body martial souls we hadn't discovered before who have grown up on their own, and we have also recruited them. In total, there are twenty-seven people. In addition, we have also identified eight Shrek spies. How to deal with them is up to you."
