Douluo's Blue Silver Family

Chapter 12 Future Development Plans

Soto City, Blue Silver Village.

Since graduating, Yuan Changqing has been staying at home.

Every day, he either cultivates himself or helps his parents take care of their children. Occasionally, he also does farm work during the busy farming season.

To hone his blacksmithing skills, he built a blacksmith shop next to his house. Since the blacksmith shop was built, the villagers no longer needed to buy farm tools from Soto City, as Yuan Changqing's skills were sufficient to forge them.

While diligently cultivating his skills in the village, Yuan Changqing was also carefully planning his future path and making plans.

The first thing is to improve his blacksmithing skills, ever since his second soul skill (Light of Life) soul ring was added, along with his first soul skill (Light of Soul Power).

Yuan Changqing's blacksmithing skills have improved noticeably. When he is tired or injured, he uses his soul skills, which greatly helps him when he is forging.

As the blacksmith's skills improved, he was able to successfully complete the crafting he needed, and he also occasionally took on some subcontracting work from the Iron Hammer family.

Due to the loss of soul guidance technology in Douluo Continent, and the scarcity of information about soul guidance technology that Yuan Changqing could find in the school library, he was helpless in his efforts to create soul guidance devices.

However, Yuan Changqing also decided that after he reached the Soul King level, he would go to those higher academies to see if he could find any books about soul tools.

Yuan Changqing also longed to have his own soul tool.

During the time he spent forging and blacksmithing, his family members asked him why he became a blacksmith.

If your own martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, wouldn't it be more efficient to use a hammer or similar martial soul for forging iron?

Yuan Changqing casually mentioned that blacksmithing could be used to forge soul tools, and that if he could find the technology in the future, he could forge some soul tools to protect himself and his family.

Just from that casual remark, one night, Grandpa suddenly gave me something.

"Changqing, Grandpa has something here, passed down from our ancestors. It's said to be able to store things, but it's broken. Take it and see if you can fix it."

"Grandpa, how did our ancestors obtain this?"

Yuan Changqing was overjoyed. Now he finally had a reference point, and perhaps he could figure out the reason behind it!

Grandpa said, "I'm not really sure either. It's said that our ancestor, who cultivated to the Soul Master level, encountered danger while hunting for Soul Rings."

"While trying to escape danger, I accidentally entered a cave and found it inside. However, it was already broken when I found it, so I kept it at home and passed it down."

"Take a look. If you can't fix it, just consider it scrap. It's not worth keeping at home anyway."

Hearing his grandfather recount the whole story, Yuan Changqing was speechless. He had finally found a soul tool, but it turned out to be broken.

Yuan Changqing thought to himself, "That ancestor must have been quite angry back then."

"Okay, Grandpa, I'll take it and study it. If I can figure it out, our family can make our own soul tools."

"Go ahead, it's okay if you don't figure it out. Our family doesn't need it right now anyway, but it would be best if you could figure it out." In the end, Grandpa said to me with encouragement and comfort.

After receiving a broken soul tool from his grandfather Yuan Tao, Yuan Changqing had a new task to do.

...

Time passed slowly, and Yuan Changqing began to plan his own scheme.

He remembered when he read the book Douluo Continent before, at the beginning of the story.

Dugu Bo reached the Title Douluo level about ten years before the protagonist Tang San was born, and about thirteen years later when he met Tang San.

Dugu Bo almost died from poisoning in an accident, but luckily he stumbled upon the wondrous place of ice and fire.

He used the power of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to suppress the poison in his body and took the opportunity to break through to the Title Douluo level.

It was only because he was powerful enough that his son and daughter-in-law would not have died with the help of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Although he didn't know Dugu Bo's current strength, based on the information he had, he should be about the same age as Tang Hao of the Haotian Sect, or maybe even older.

Based on this, I can obtain the immortal herbs from the Yin-Yang Well in advance, which will greatly improve the cultivation speed of my family members.

Also, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye is located in the Sunset Forest outside the Heaven Dou City, the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, and it's not too far away.

It seems that Yuan Changqing needs to go to Tiandou City, where there are many advanced academies. He can apply to be a teacher there when he reaches the Soul King level.

That would make it easier for me to find the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, and also make it easier to hunt for my subsequent soul rings.

After finalizing his plans, Yuan Changqing continued with his own pursuits, such as studying the runes in Feng Shui and researching the broken soul tool, hoping to combine them to create his own unique soul tool technology in the future.

Yuan Changqing chose the offensive type for his martial soul path.

...

Ten years later.

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. My younger brother and sister have graduated and are now thirteen years old, and their strength has reached the level of a Great Soul Master.

Moreover, both she and her aunt had gotten married; Yuan Changqing and Wang Yuyan were already married and had their own child.

Yuan Changqing married Wang Yuyan when he was 18 years old, and they had a son who is now three years old. They named him Yuan Qinglan, which means "the student surpasses the teacher".

As expected, the aunt found a son-in-law who moved in with her. It was on their way back from Soto City that he and the aunt found an injured man in a clump of grass.

After taking him home and treating him, she learned that he was an ordinary person and an orphan, and quite handsome. With the help of her aunt, they developed feelings for each other and naturally got married.

My aunt's husband is named Ye Xiaofan. His martial soul is the Flamingo, and his innate soul power is level 7, which is a high-level martial soul. When I met him, he was already a Soul King. Because he hunted soul beasts on his own, his fifth soul ring was only a thousand-year soul ring.

After absorbing the spirit ring, he encountered a spirit beast, was injured in battle, and ran all the way out of the Star Dou Great Forest, eventually meeting Yuan Changqing and her niece.

He was 5 years older than his aunt. At the time, Yuan Changqing was 14 years old, his aunt was 21 years old, and Ye Xiaofan was 26 years old.

...

Ten years have passed, and Yuan Changqing's family has grown considerably. Yuan Changqing is now 22 years old, a level 49 Soul Master, specializing in offensive attacks.

Grandpa Yuan Tao is 58 years old, a level 54 Soul King, and a strong attack type.

Grandma Lan Tong is 58 years old, a level 51 Soul King, and a control-type character.

Father Yuan Fei is 40 years old, a level 45 Soul Master, and a strong attack type.

Mother Lan Ling is 39 years old, a level 43 Soul Master, and a control-type cultivator.

My aunt, Yuan Linglong, is 29 years old, a level 49 Soul Master, and a control-type character.

Ye Xiaofan, the uncle of the youngest aunt, is 34 years old and a level 61 Soul Emperor. He has the highest cultivation level in the family and obtained the family's cultivation technique through a Martial Soul Oath.

Wang Yuyan is 22 years old, a level 36 Soul Master, with agility and control abilities. After swearing an oath to her Martial Soul, she also obtained her family's cultivation technique.

The second sister, Yuan Ziyi, is 13 years old, a level 23 Great Soul Master, and belongs to the control type.

The third brother, Yuan Zilong, is 13 years old, a level 23 Great Soul Master, and a power-attack type.

My son, Yuan Qinglan, is 3 years old; he's still a little kid.

My younger brother, Ye Guang, is 7 years old. His martial soul is a flamingo, his innate soul power is level 7, he is an 11th-level soul master, and he is a power attack type.

Judging from this, the family is quite strong; Yuan Changqing and her aunt are also close to advancing to the Soul King level.
