Douluo: Legend of the Dragon King - The Voice of the Purple Emperor

Chapter 170 The Real Mecha Maker

Each mark must be perfectly rounded and harmonious, conforming to the quality of the jade and silver itself, and inducing changes in its internal structure. The complexity involved is beyond description.

Forging jade silver is difficult; it requires countless hammer blows and tempering, even imbuing it with spirit and life. The process of creating battle armor is like improving its vital signs, fully stimulating its spirit and vitality. If Gu You is the biological father of this jade silver, then Ye Xinglan is now its foster mother, nurturing it to grow up and truly transforming it from a fledgling eagle into a soaring eagle.

It's hard to say which is more difficult. If we had to rank them, generally speaking, it's more difficult for blacksmiths, but both are indispensable. Life is created, but if it goes astray during its nurturing, it can only become a useless person.

Ye Xinglan's expression was very focused. Each starlight ray released from her Star God Sword was very stable, solid, yet not overly intense. The dense, continuous sword light overlapped, with her powerful soul force serving as the foundation for everything.

This cool manufacturing method has even made Gu You want to become a mecha maker.

As time goes by, the patterns on the jade and silver begin to deepen from their initial coarseness, gradually becoming more complex from their initial simplicity. The patterns become interconnected and intertwined, creating a resonance.

The brilliance of the jade and silver itself became more and more dazzling, and the starlight seemed to come alive, wandering and flowing on the surface of the jade and silver, and the life force became more and more intense.

As its creator, Guyou can deeply feel its cheers. At this moment, it seems to be stretching its muscles and bones, slowly growing up.

Only by truly witnessing the creation of battle armor could Gu You clearly understand why some people say that one must participate in the creation of battle armor; without participation, one will never truly understand its essence.

Seven hours later, the speed at which Ye Xinglan wielded the Star God Sword finally began to slow down. Halfway through, the core array had been inscribed more than halfway. However, her soul power clearly showed signs of being insufficient to make up for the shortfall.

Of course, at this point, Gu You would definitely stop reading and instead fall asleep while watching.

Ye Xinglan stretched her left hand to the side, and Xu Lizhi immediately handed her a large meat bun. Her right hand wielded the Star God Sword with effortless ease, while her left hand stuffed the bun into her mouth, devouring it in a few bites.

The radiance on the Star God Sword remained unchanged, and no matter what situation she was in, the Star God Sword in her right hand remained stable.

Restoring the large meat bun can restore both physical strength and soul power, a dual restoration that naturally helps her.

Soon, three minutes later, she reached out her hand a second time and asked for another large meat bun, which she then ate.

In the following period, every three minutes, she would eat a large meat bun to restore her physical strength and soul power.

Physical strength didn't seem to be a big problem, but the consumption of soul power was clearly insufficient. Moreover, what worried Xu Lizhi was that Ye Xinglan's lower abdomen was visibly swelling.

Not everyone has a strong digestive system. Ye Xinglan had already eaten twenty steamed buns, which was far beyond her normal appetite. If she continued like this, she might die from overeating.

Although the food released by a food-type martial soul is an energy body, it is the same as food in itself. Eating too much of it is not only not beneficial, but also harmful and will make you fat.

Ye Xinglan is in a difficult situation. If she doesn't eat, the battle armor simply cannot be made.

Ye Xinglan raised her left hand again, but this time, she only raised it halfway before pulling it back, unable to eat anymore.

Twenty-odd steamed buns were far too much for her; eating any more might affect her control over the Star God Sword and her health. So, after hesitating for a moment, she decided not to eat them.

Sweat began to drip from Ye Xinglan's forehead, but her expression remained unchanged. The speed of her Star God Sword increased rather than decreased, and patterns steadily formed on it, allowing the battle armor to take shape continuously.

"Give me a red bean bun!" Ye Xinglan suddenly shouted.

Xu Lizhi hesitated for a moment, but still released his third soul skill and handed over a bloodthirsty red bean bun.

Ye Xinglan took the red bean bun in her hand, took a deep breath, and then ate it.

As Xu Lizhi's third soul skill, and also his most powerful soul skill at present, the Bloodthirsty Red Bean Bun has a very significant effect. After eating just one red bean bun, Ye Xinglan's aura suddenly changed. His soul power, which had been weakening, rapidly increased, and even his aura became different. His physical strength quickly recovered and even surpassed his peak.

The Bloodthirsty Red Bean Bun provides a double boost to both physical strength and soul power, with the most significant increases in physical strength and bloodline power. The boost to soul power is secondary.

As her soul power surged, Ye Xinglan's lower abdomen quickly deflated. With her qi and blood circulating at a high level, her digestive ability was greatly enhanced. Combined with the recovery meat buns she had eaten earlier, her soul power suddenly soared.

However, the side effects are obvious: she becomes extremely weak and her life force is depleted. Ye Xinglan is currently using half of her life force to create this battle armor!

The Star God Sword shone brightly, and the star lines became noticeably more solid. Each strike was like a powerful, sweeping axe, and the progress of the battle armor's creation was clearly accelerating.

The Star God Sword shone brightly once more, its dazzling starlight weaving into a vast net that continuously slashed down upon the jade silver. At this moment, the jade silver had fully manifested the form of a right gauntlet and forearm armor, with brilliant starlight crisscrossing and shimmering across its surface, creating a magnificent and awe-inspiring sight.

But at this moment, Ye Xinglan's body began to tremble uncontrollably. The effects of the Bloodthirsty Red Bean Bun were starting to weaken.

But Ye Xinglan still persevered. As a mecha maker, their destiny, from the moment they learned this skill, was sealed: to tirelessly strive to create armor that could not be saved, to create the most powerful and invincible mecha.

Ye Xinglan bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes shining like stars. Her hands remained steady throughout, her gaze unwavering. What kind of belief sustained her as she continuously unleashed streaks of starlight?

Brilliant starlight fell, its rays crisscrossing and overlapping, allowing the jade-silver gauntlet to take shape in a sea of ​​light.

A blinding silver light rose. Ye Xinglan's Star God Sword, having exerted all its strength, unleashed nine consecutive strikes, all of which fell into that cluster of starlight. In an instant, the starlight shone brilliantly, soaring into the sky.

It was a success...

"The match is over." Wu Changkong stepped onto the stage and announced expressionlessly.

This also means that the team that will truly compete against the sixth-grade students has been formed...
