Douluo Continent: Starting with a Void Treasure Trove

Although Jing Hongchen did not understand Xiao Hongchen's purpose in forging the platform.

But it was obviously related to his previous deep meditation. Jing Hongchen didn't think much of it and rummaged through his storage soul tool for a long time before finally finding a forging table.

Moreover, it was quite rudimentary, because people like Jing Hongchen rarely bothered to pre-process rare metals themselves.

This is usually the work done by apprentices of the Soul Master.

Due to technological limitations, the rare metals pre-processed by a level nine Soul Master and the rare metals pre-processed by a Soul Grandmaster differ greatly in terms of speed.

There is little difference in quality.

The time of a level nine soul master is clearly much more valuable than that of an apprentice.

Xiao Hongchen's eyes twitched slightly as he looked at the forging table that Jing Hongchen had taken out, a forging table that was probably from many years ago.

He knew that Jing Hongchen's forging platform might not have been used for a long time, but it seems that he still underestimated Jing Hongchen.

This forging table is probably several times his age.

Fortunately, it doesn't affect its use.

Jing Hongchen was also a little embarrassed. He had made so many preparations. He never expected that Xiao Hongchen would ask him for something like a forging table.

This forging table was the one he used when he was an apprentice learning about soul tools, it must have been there for at least several decades.

Fortunately, it was made by himself, so it's sturdy and durable.

What rare metal do you want?

Jing Hongchen continued to ask.

Since he had already taken out the forging table, it must be because he was going to process rare metals, so his question was quite natural.

"Grandpa has most of the rare metals, and he even has some rare metals that are not available on the market."

As he spoke, he took out a pitch-black stone, which was sparkling with starlight.

"This is Star Gold, a rare metal that has long been discontinued on the market. You can find very few people in the entire Sun Moon Empire who possess this rare metal."

"No need, just give me a piece of sunken silver."

Xiao Hongchen didn't look at the priceless piece of star gold in Jing Hongchen's hand, but instead changed the subject.

"Sunken silver?"

Jing Hongchen took out another piece of silvery-white metal. This is one of the most commonly used metals in soul tools because it has a good compatibility with soul power, especially in terms of soul power transmission, which is superior to many rare metals.

Therefore, the core magic arrays of many soul tools are carved using melted silver.

It is also one of the metals that the Sun and Moon Empire mines the most.

Every year, a considerable number are smuggled into the Three Kingdoms of Douluo Continent.

As for whether it was embezzlement by someone in charge, that's unknown.

Xiao Hongchen took the piece of heavy silver, examined it carefully for a while, then took a deep breath and placed it on the forging table.

At this opportune moment, Xu Yang handed over a forging hammer, which he had made in his spare time.

He also used the tail of a ten-thousand-year-old metal earth dragon, and Xu Yang preserved the characteristics of the earth dragon's body and skull to make this hammer.

The function is simple: to enhance the hammer user's control over the metal.

Originally, it intended to try its hand at forging, but now it seems to have found its true master.

After calming his mind, Xiao Hongchen glanced at the forging hammer beside him and then looked gratefully at Xu Yang.

He knew that the value of this forging hammer was even greater than that of his pair of golden claws.

Finding a ten-thousand-year-old earth dragon is difficult enough, let alone turning its skeleton into a forging hammer.

Moreover, the compatibility between this forging hammer and his golden crystal claws is even greater.

This was a huge boost for him as a person.

As Xiao Hongchen's martial spirit possessed him, he held a forging hammer, and the forging table began to heat the sunken silver after being infused with soul power.

Once the sunken silver was heated to the appropriate temperature again, Xiao Hongchen, who had been doing nothing until now, finally made a move.

He swung his forging hammer, smashing it down on the sunken silver one blow after another. None of the people present dared to disturb Xiao Hongchen; they simply watched quietly.

Instead, Xiao Hongchen entered an increasingly selfless state, as if he had become one with the forging hammer. Every time the forging hammer struck the dark silver, Xiao Hongchen's aura would become stronger and stronger.

As for Xiao Hongchen himself, he felt that his current sensation was very peculiar. If he could maintain this state, he could take on ten Xu Yangs!

In the eyes of Xu Yang and his companions, the piece of sunken silver that was being constantly hammered by Xiao Hongchen underwent some changes that they could not explain.

But they were certain that the quality of the sunken silver had improved considerably after Xiao Hongchen's hammering.

If used to make soul tools, they would definitely be much more powerful than those made from normal sunken silver.

As Xiao Hongchen struck the piece of silver, a faint spiritual light appeared on it.

"This should be the Thousand Refinement, but I don't know how many grades it can reach."

Xu Yang guessed to himself.

Time passed little by little, but the ridiculous momentum of the mortal world showed no signs of stopping.

"The aura of the sunken silver is also constantly rising; it's almost at the top grade of the thousand-refinement level."

Looking at the height of the light, Xu Yang sighed.

I never expected that Xiao Hongchen would actually be such a genius.

He hadn't expected Xiao Hongchen to be able to do this.

"To have reached the Thousand Refinements stage before even reaching the Soul Venerable level! It's a pity the next step is Spirit Refinement. Is Xiao Hongchen's cultivation really sufficient?"

Xu Yang began to have doubts about Xiao Hongchen. In his eyes, even Tang Wulin, who was exceptionally talented in forging in the original work, did not manage to perform spirit forging with only a soul power of level 20 or so.

But why hasn't it stopped yet?

This puzzled Xu Yang a bit.

As time passed and the quality of the sunken silver stopped improving, Xiao Hongchen continued to hammer away with undivided devotion.

Xu Yang frowned slightly; he sensed that things were not so simple.

Suddenly, Xiao Hongchen, who had been relentlessly hammering at Chen Yin, stopped, but his entire demeanor seemed to change.

Xu Yang's brows furrowed even more; he could tell what was causing Xiao Hongchen's change.

Divinity—just now, a strange divinity appeared on Xiao Hongchen's body.

However, it seems that this divine quality has no ill intentions towards Xiao Hongchen.

As that unfamiliar divinity flowed into Xiao Hongchen's body, he resumed his actions, which had stopped earlier.

As the silver shards fell with Xiao Hongchen's movements, they underwent another transformation.

This is—Spirit Forging!

That divine quality is helping Xiao Hongchen refine his spirit.

With the Silver Dragon Martial Soul fused with the Metal of Life, Xu Yang now has a deep understanding of this spirituality.

That piece of sunken silver is about to come to life.

The Spirit Forging Creation technique appeared on the Douluo Continent thousands of years ahead of schedule.

Its founder, Xiao Hongchen, stood opposite him. Despite the help of that unfamiliar divine power, it was still a moment worth commemorating.
