Peerless Tang Sect: Becoming a God Through Medicine

Chapter 39 Ah Xiao, Do You Yearn for the Truth?

"Brother Tianmeng, what was that just now?"

On the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, Huo Yuhao asked the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, whom he had just met, with a puzzled expression.

Although he was merging with the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm at that time, he was not without consciousness, so he naturally saw the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm blocking Ilex, and then the latter leaving and flying to another place.

This made him curious about the gray stream of air.

But he only had time to ask this question now that the integration was complete.

"Never mind him, he's just some roadside guy trying to take over my territory. We can easily deal with him," Tianmeng Bingcan said nonchalantly.

Compared to the gray aura, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was more concerned about Huo Yuhao's health.

"Oh my god, how come your talent is so bad? How could I be so unlucky to have chosen a host like you..."

"I'm sorry, Brother Tianmeng, I will try my best."

Hearing the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's miserable cries, Huo Yuhao felt a little embarrassed. After all, he knew his own talent, and the fact that the other was willing to merge with him was already a bargain for him. So, the best choice at this time was naturally to offer words of comfort.

However, the gray aura that Tianmeng Ice Silkworm didn't seem to care about at all remained unforgettable for Huo Yuhao.

Even though Tianmeng Ice Silkworm told him not to worry, he still had an indescribable feeling in his heart. Limited by his level of education, he couldn't find a suitable adjective, and could only describe it as a feeling of emptiness.

Of course, at this point he understood nothing, so naturally he didn't know what he had missed.

"Alright, we can talk about this later. Go outside, there are two little ones looking for you..."

"……Find me?"

……

Lin Nuo's breakthrough to Soul Emperor was undoubtedly something to celebrate. Even Jing Hongchen only inquired about what had happened during the nearly one month that Lin Nuo was away from Mingde Hall before returning home to celebrate together.

No outsiders were invited to the dinner; it was just the four of them enjoying each other's company.

After dinner.

Xiao Meng very virtuously cleaned up the mess, Jing Hongchen sat on the sofa flipping through documents, while Lin Nuo went to find Xiao Hongchen.

"Ah Xiao, have you ever taken the Mysterious Water Pill?"

Lin Nuo's question stumped Xiao Hongchen. He scratched his head and said, "Of course I've taken it. Although I have full innate soul power, I've taken a lot of medicine to cultivate, so there are still impurities in my body. The effect of the Xuan Shui Dan in enhancing innate soul power is useless to me, but it can clear the impurities in my body."

“Not only me, but Meng also takes a Xuan Shui Pill every now and then to cleanse her body of impurities. You know that, so what?”

Lin Nuo's words not only piqued Xiao Hongchen's interest, but also drew the attention of Xiao Meng, who was standing nearby.

Jing Hongchen also put down the documents in his hand and looked over with great interest.

When Lin Nuo speaks, he always brings some interesting and insightful ideas, which is already a well-known fact in their family. So, hearing Lin Nuo's ambiguous words, they were naturally interested in discussing it.

Lin Nuo's next words indeed made them all fall into deep thought. "Mysterious Water Pill, to cleanse impurities," Lin Nuo repeated these two key words.

"Yes, our bodies have impurities, so do metals also have impurities? When we made soul tools before, we simply used the metal extracted from the ore as the material. If we use forging to continuously hammer the metal, could we force out the impurities inside the metal, making it more tough and stronger?"

“Soul Masters can make their soul power more solid by repeatedly hammering, so why can’t metal do the same? High temperature, high pressure, repeated forging, feeling the internal structure of the metal, treating a piece of metal with the same care as engraving a core magic array, can make it transform from the inside out and give it a true new life.”

“Ah Xiao, your martial soul is the three-legged golden toad, which gives you the natural ability to control metal and an extremely high affinity for it. Don’t you think that the theory I’m talking about can actually be realized by you?”

"The development of our soul tools has been limited to some extent by the materials. Just like the Judgment Sword that Grandpa Mirror gave me, the strength of the material made it destined to not become a level nine soul tool."

"Ah Xiao... if you can fulfill the vision I have proposed, you will become another unyielding monument in the world of Soul Masters, you will become the truth..."

Before this, Lin Nuo had thought for a long time about the battle armor from the Legend of the Dragon King and the spirit-forging system, but it turned out that he really didn't have the talent in this area.

And coincidentally, right in front of him was a true genius with one in ten thousand soul tool talents.

He really didn't know how to figure out spirit forging, but that's okay. If he didn't know how, he could just find someone who did.

Lin Nuo only needs to provide the theory to Xiao Hongchen, and then let Xiao Hongchen use his amazing wisdom to create the Spirit Forging Technique. Wouldn't that be enough?

After listening to Lin Nuo's words.

Xiao Hongchen fell into deep thought.

Meng Hongchen blinked.

Jing Hongchen quickly constructed a model in her mind to simulate the feasibility of Lin Nuo's words.

"Grandpa, is it possible for Arno's theory on metal forging to be realized?" Meng Hongchen asked.

Jing Hongchen frowned, hesitated, and nodded.

Because he hadn't considered this path either. The Sun Moon Empire's consistent method of mining metal was to separate impurities from the raw ore mined from the vein through high-temperature smelting, allowing the metal to cool and solidify after the impurities were removed, and then directly use it as material for soul tools.

Even if forging techniques are used, it involves high-temperature stamping to shape the metal into the desired form. They rarely hammer the metal into soul tool components themselves.

Making the core magic circle is already exhausting enough, where would we find the energy to forge iron? As long as the outer shell works, it's fine, right?

Do metal ores that have been purified from the raw ore also contain impurities?
There should be.

Jing Hongchen discovered that he seemed to have found another gap in soul guidance technology. They seemed to have been too focused on the core magic array and soul guidance theory, and had only focused on developing new technologies, but had ignored the most fundamental thing in making soul guidance devices.

That is the material, the metal that is the most fundamental component of Soul Guidance Technology.

Why...why haven't they ever thought about this question all these years?
forging……

Could such primitive technology really be the key to further advancements in Soul Guidance Technology?
"Xiao, I think you can give it a try." After a long silence, Jing Hongchen spoke to Xiao Hongchen, who was also deep in thought.

“Arnold is right. You have an extremely high affinity for metals. If anyone can achieve what Arnold proposed, you are undoubtedly the one with the best chance.”
