Douluo Continent: The True Body and Blood Soul, Starting from Blacksmithing

Without any family inheritance, being able to successfully obtain divine equipment before the age of twelve—what this means is unknown to Qian Renxue.

If it were just a matter of secretly learning Lin Yu's forging techniques, she could make that decision herself.

However, since it involved divine equipment, Qian Renxue had no choice but to take the Serpent Spear Douluo's advice and ask her grandfather to come out of seclusion.

In order to transmit intelligence more quickly, Serpent Spear Douluo set off directly that night. However, his first target was not the Hall of Worship, but the Porcupine Douluo who was in charge of information gathering outside Tiandou City.

The young master must be protected, but the message also needs to be delivered.

…………

Ding ding ding~~

Xue Qinghe, who was cultivating in his simulated cultivation room, suddenly heard a series of extremely penetrating clanging sounds.

Realizing what was happening, Xue Qinghe quickly exited his cultivation state.

Upon arriving at the courtyard, Xue Qinghe looked in surprise toward the other side of the courtyard, in the direction from which the forging sound was coming from.

Looking at the sky, Xue Qinghe's face darkened.

No, it's the middle of the night, aren't you sleeping? Forging things at this hour?

Xue Qinghe silently contacted the Porcupine Douluo who had just been brought over to relieve him.

Fortunately, there was a Title Douluo by my side at this time.

Although Lin Yu often failed at forging, even his failed forging experiences and works allowed the Spirit Hall to train two blacksmiths capable of forging a thousand times.

Pushing open the door in the wall leading to Lin Yu's courtyard, Xue Qinghe arrived at the courtyard where Lin Yu was.

Upon arriving here, Xue Qinghe immediately saw Lin Yu excitedly swinging his hammer through the window.

At that moment, Lin Yu also looked over.

"Brother Xue, I'm sorry to disturb your rest. Things happened so suddenly that I had to start the furnace ahead of schedule. Now that you're awake, could you come over and help me control the heat?"

Seeing Xue Qinghe reluctantly come over to help him control the heat, Lin Yu smiled awkwardly.

"I mainly thought of the reason why I succeeded in the last ten thousand forging, so I couldn't wait to try it. I really didn't mean to bother you."

Xue Qinghe waved his hand dismissively, then his gaze fell on the metal that Lin Yu had forged this time.

This is a unique iron blank with a mixture of purple and gold colors. As Lin Yu swings his forging hammer, the purple and gold colors in the iron blank are constantly intertwining and merging.

Crackling sound~~

During the forging process, a streak of purple lightning suddenly appeared.

Ok? ? ?

Several question marks instantly appeared on Xue Qinghe's face.

What did he just see? Lightning flashed on a piece of iron being forged?!

No, is that right?

Xue Qinghe really wanted to ask Lin Yu what metal he was using, but seeing Lin Yu's focused expression as he forged the metal, Xue Qinghe gave up asking.

Having failed at one piece during the day, and not even having recovered enough, this forging attempt is sure to end in failure.

Once he gets his hands on this piece of scrap, he'll naturally be able to analyze its characteristics.

Time passed by, and two hours had gone by in the blink of an eye.

Xue Qinghe gradually realized that something was wrong.

The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul possesses ultimate light and fire attributes, allowing it to sense the condition of the iron blank through the burning flames.

Although not as profound as that of Lin Yu, the forger, it is still possible to simply sense the soul fluctuations.

In the past, the "spirits" that Lin Yu forged during the Wan Forging process were extremely mischievous and active.

But the spirit forged this time was very obedient, not only obedient but also very cooperative, seemingly guiding Lin Yu on where to strike with the hammer and where to inject soul power.

Besides the soul fluctuations within it, this iron blank also underwent significant changes.

The iron blanks, which were originally purple and gold, have now all turned purple and gold. The electric arcs that used to flicker from time to time have now completely stabilized.

Could it really be going to work this time?!

Could the long-lost art of ten thousand forging techniques from the mainland be revived tonight?! Xue Qinghe couldn't help but begin to look forward to it.

Finally, at some point an hour later.

A dazzling purple-gold light shone forth, as if celebrating a new life, or perhaps a sign of divine favor.

With a deafening roar, a bolt of purple lightning ripped through the silent night sky, shattered the roof of the forging room, and struck the purple-gold iron ingot that had just been successfully forged and was being shaped.

The sudden appearance of lightning caught Lin Yu and Xue Qinghe off guard.

They could only watch helplessly as lightning struck the iron ingot.

The originally smooth iron billet, after this process, instantly developed a spiderweb-like layer of cracks on its surface, with some red, gelatinous substances resembling molten glass within the cracks.

This change terrified Lin Yu, but she breathed a sigh of relief after sensing the will of the soul within.

Although the iron billet, after being struck by lightning, is covered with cracks, it can be shaped much faster.

Its shape is very simple and unadorned, which is exactly the style of the eyebrow-level staff that Lin Yu is currently most proficient in.

The stick was then inserted directly into Lin Yu's left chest.

A few days ago, there was a golden scale on the left side of Lin Yu's chest.

Because of the scale, a unique capillary structure formed on the outside of Lin Yu's heart.

The scales are gone, but the capillaries surrounding the heart have already formed and have not disappeared with the loss of the scales.

Lin Yu originally intended to deal with these blood vessels after the bone tempering was completed.

Unexpectedly, the spirit-forged weapon that I had just completed actually came to the location of the scale and formed a harder, larger protective scale on its own.

This was a completely unexpected and delightful surprise.

Unlike Lin Yu's joy, Xue Qinghe stared helplessly at the large hole in the roof that had been struck by lightning.

"Brother Yu, you clearly installed the kind of lightning rod you built a few years ago in this house, so why did this lightning still manage to break through the roof and fall down?"

Hearing Xue Qinghe's words, Lin Yu snapped out of her daze and stared at the large hole in the roof with a slight toothache.

I almost forgot about Xue Qinghe if he hadn't mentioned him.

Several years ago, after he figured out a way to counter the lightning power of the Thunder Tyrannosaurus Rex martial soul, many buildings were equipped with lightning rods.

There was no intention to deliberately guard against the Thunder King Clan; the only concern was that the house wouldn't be struck by lightning during a thunderstorm.

Lin Yu's invention has brought great convenience to areas that are plagued by thunderstorms every summer.

Unexpectedly, a bolt of lightning bypassed the lightning rod and struck my house directly today.

Is that right?!

If this were a previous life, those who installed lightning rods here would probably have suffered from heavy metal poisoning.

But in this world, there is a God! Purely physical laws don't work.

Of course, the first thing Lin Yu thought of when he saw this lightning bolt was the figure in the thunderclouds that day.

The Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone was completely destroyed by one of his lightning strikes.

Now another bolt of lightning strikes, hitting the same piece of metal that has been fused with the Blue Silver Emperor's leg bone, and everything makes sense now.

It's unclear what effect the lightning strike had on the metal.

After communicating with the weaker consciousness within, and understanding the effects of the stick being struck by lightning, Lin Yu couldn't help but gasp.

"Brother Xue, let's set the challenge with Prince Xue Beng for these next two days. I'm confident of victory; even a fourth-ring Soul Master won't fare well against me!"
