Peerless Tang Sect: Becoming a God Through Medicine

Chapter 42 Linno's Destructive Forging Experiment

With Xiao Hongchen being so helpful, Lin Nuo naturally couldn't let him fall behind. He started using the forging methods Xiao Hongchen taught him to catch up with Xiao Hongchen's progress. Once he caught up with Xiao Hongchen, he would then use what he had learned from him to guide him.

This wave is called forgetting one's roots.

To be honest, forging to a hundred times isn't that difficult. As long as you use the correct forging method and hammer it a few hundred times, reaching the level of a hundred forgings is easy. At most, it's just a difference in the purity of the metal or how easy it is for the blacksmith.

With the correct experience given by Xiao Hongchen, Lin Nuo also began to try the Hundred Forging technique.

The metal he chose was also smelt silver.

After carefully studying the characteristics of this thing, Lin Nuo discovered that there was a reason why Tang Wulin loved the Heavy Silver. Its stability was too high, and its effect of amplifying soul power was also very significant.

Ignoring all the miscellaneous characteristics, the most important function of battle armor is to directly amplify combat power. A one-word battle armor can give a Soul King the combat power of a Soul Saint, while a four-word battle armor can make a Title Douluo comparable to a Limit Douluo.

In other words, if Lin Nuo could create Heavenly Forging now and equip the Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire with Armored Battle Armor, then the Sun Moon Empire could instantly produce multiple Limit Douluos.

Even if their combat strength is only the lowest level of Limit Douluo realm, the power of one Xuan, there are still enough ants to kill an elephant.

If one Xuanzi can't defeat a powerful Limit Douluo like Mu Enlong or Xiaoyao, then if I gang up on you with ten of them, wouldn't you be blown up?

There are only three Limit Douluo in this era, Shrek Mun and Holy Spirit Cult Long Ye, but does the Sun Moon Empire have thirty level nine Soul Masters?
There should be one; otherwise, it would be impossible for a single country to rival the other three.

However, at the current stage, it is definitely impossible to produce high-level spirit metals. The conditions are too scarce, not only in terms of technology, but also possibly in terms of rules.

According to Lin Nuo's speculation, before the development of the Spirit Forging System, the pinnacle of forging in Douluo Continent should have been the forging that Lou Gao sacrificed his life for ten thousand years ago. Lin Nuo speculated in a bolder direction that the forging that time should have already advanced metal to the level of spirit forging.

To put it simply...

Spirit forging gives life to metal, while soul forging gives life a soul. Lou Gao obviously cannot reach the level of soul forging, and soul forging cannot be carried by a single metal; it must be forged from an alloy.

Therefore, that forging could only achieve the level of flawed spirit forging at best.

Then a very awkward problem arises: metal formulas require generations of people to experiment and accumulate over time to find the best ratio for alloy forging.

The combination of various difficulties meant that it was unlikely that a true Heavenly Forging technique would emerge in this era.

Humans have their limits; it's impossible for one person's efforts to replace the experience accumulated over generations.

I don't have the energy or the time.

Lin Nuo only hoped that after he and Xiao Hongchen developed the Thousand Forging and even the Spirit Forging, they could mobilize the entire Sun Moon Empire to cooperate with them in proposing Fusion Forging, developing Soul Forging, and looking forward to Heaven Forging.

Given the current situation, the best option for Lin Nuo and Xiao Hongchen is to refine the metal, Chenyin, to the level of thousand-fold forging or even spirit forging, and create the true prototype of the battle armor.

As long as they have a goal, the Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire, who are already eyeing humanoid Soul Guidance Devices with envy, will spare no effort to help them.

Lin Nuo kept probing Shen Yin with his little hammer, trying to find the feeling described by Xiao Hongchen.

Before he knew it, he had become completely absorbed in the experience and found the metallic patterns that Xiao Hongchen had mentioned. These were lines inside the sunken silver that resembled ocean waves. With each strike of Lin Nuo's hammer, these lines seemed to ripple like ocean waves.

Sunken silver, silver from the deep sea, can generally only be found in seabed veins. Under the high pressure of seawater, it becomes extremely stable and tough.

Its interior naturally possessed the unique characteristics of the sea, deep and stable. As Lin Nuo forged the heavy silver, the sound of hammering echoed in his ears, seemingly transforming into the sound of ocean waves.

Just like in his past life, when he went to the beach at night and faced the rising tide, the surrounding darkness enveloped him, and all he could see were the waves of pitch-black seawater that seemed to be about to engulf him.

slam-la-

clang! ! !
Wow…

clang……

Even Lin Nuo himself was unaware that although his pointed head affected his thinking and intelligence, it gave him a characteristic that is hard for ordinary people to possess: focus.

He is unable to think about other things while doing one thing, and it is even difficult for him to think about the next step from the previous one like a normal person. He can only focus on the thing in front of him.

To put it more nicely, he has a clear mind.

To put it simply, he's incredibly stubborn and has some kind of mental problem.

If he's heading in the wrong direction from the start, given his circumstances, he'll either end up on a dead end or keep going in circles in a dead end.

However, if he is heading in the right direction, his headstrong approach will prevent him from becoming confused and overthinking like others, and he will simply follow his own convictions to the end.

That's where Lin Nuo's brilliance lies.

He knew he wasn't very bright, so he never thought for himself. After giving out the method according to the original plot, he relied on his external brain to think and just went about his business.

The sniper rifle given to Jing Hongchen was like this, and so was the push for Xiao Hongchen to develop the Spirit Forging technique.

Arnold, just do the work; you all just think.

(Sinking Silver: Dad... stop hitting Dad, it's about to explode...)
As expected, Arno destroyed this piece of sunken silver in the end. All the impurities were indeed removed, but the wave patterns inside the silver were almost beyond saving, and it was impossible for it to generate any spiritual energy.

However, this was within Lin Nuo's expectations, as he had originally intended to acquire the sunken silver from the Hammer Waste.

Only by understanding how to destroy it can we figure out how to 'cure' it.

This is just like when Lin Nuo was a child, he took apart all sorts of things at home, including radios, remote controls, and DVDs. Those that could be put back together would survive, and those that couldn't be put back together were simply destined to be.

Forget about whether it still works or not. Just tell me if Arnold learned something while taking it apart.

Although the piece of silver was ruined by the hammer, Lin Nuo actually figured out a bit of the trick to refining it.

The internal patterns of metal can be broken, or they can be sublimated and elevated. The key is to increase the proportion of sublimation, decrease the proportion of breakage, and remove all internal impurities.

Then it is a qualified piece of forged metal.

"There's no other way. Given the limited resources, we can only experiment little by little through this destructive method..."
