Douluo Dragon King: Nine-Colored Lotus, Incinerating All Things

"It can be used as an aid, but it should never be relied upon entirely."

"Forging is a very laborious process."

"It's not just physical strength, but also energy and soul power."

"Moreover, the learning before the thousand-fold forging is, in my opinion, the most important stage, the foundation-building stage."

"While the lotus can certainly help you complete the Thousand Refinements better than anyone else, without a foundation, you will not be able to proceed with the subsequent forging."

Lin Jin nodded in agreement.

After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Then, teacher, shouldn't I use Lianhua's ability to forge myself a good forging hammer?"

Mu Chen was taken aback upon hearing this, but a satisfied look appeared on his face as he smiled and said, "Of course, it is necessary."

For a blacksmith, a forging hammer with good special effects is like having a suitable weapon, which can bring twice the result with half the effort in the forging process.

For example, the penetrating effect of his early thousand-fold forging hammer, and the resonance effect of his current forging hammer.

All of these would make his forging process much simpler.

Senior Brother Zhenhua's forging hammer now has an even more domineering vibration effect.

With a single hammer blow, a three-dimensional shockwave ripples outwards, penetrating directly into the metal core; a single hammer blow can forge a hundred times over, which is commonplace.

Mu Chen's eyes flickered slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he spoke softly.

"This matter is not urgent for now. I need to carefully consider what rare metals are suitable as materials for your thousand-forging hammer."

Chapter 13 Mu Xi flees overnight, divine-level metal ethereal gold?

An hour later.

Strands of barely perceptible crimson light detached from Mu Xi's body and merged into Lin Jin's body.

Instantly, a sense of clarity filled my mind and body.

He felt as if the world before him had become much clearer.

Clearly, this gain was substantial.

the other side.

Mu Xi's breathing became rapid, and the moment she opened her eyes, her gaze was fixed on Lin Jin.

It was like looking at a rare treasure.

Although it was burned, and the experience was unpleasant.

But she did indeed feel the benefits.

Not only did their soul power become more solid, but their mental power also improved.

She had a hunch that this might greatly accelerate her advancement to Level 2 Blacksmith.

At this moment, Mu Xi only wanted Lin Jin to burn her again.

Whether you feel uncomfortable or not is not important.

If she can keep improving like this, then it doesn't matter if I keep burning her!

Lin Jin felt a little uneasy under Mu Xi's gaze and quickly looked at Mu Chen.

Mu Chen covered his face and glared at him, saying, "Alright, this kind of good thing only happens once. There won't be any follow-up effects, so don't even think about catching Ah Jin again."

He paused, then added, "Remember this well, don't be careless about anything."

Mu Chen and Mu Xi are father and daughter, and they also share the same martial spirit.

Having been watching closely, he naturally knew how much his daughter had benefited, and also knew how significant the impact would be if it were exposed now.

So he immediately spoke up to remind him.

"Is that so..."

Mu Xi's face showed obvious disappointment.

But then, seeing her father's serious expression, she stuck out her tongue and immediately promised, "Okay, okay, I know, I definitely won't tell anyone."

“Ah Jin is my good brother, how could I not even keep my brother’s secret?”

She looked at Lin Jin and smiled brightly, "Right, little brother?"

Boom!

Mu Chen flicked his forehead, causing his daughter to cry out in pain.

Ignoring her daughter's protests, she turned to Lin Jin, frowning, and asked, "Wang Tao, the spirit master who awakened your martial soul?"

He feared that Wang Tao, who would benefit from this, would reveal the secret for his own future.

Lin Jin said, "He doesn't seem like a bad person, otherwise I wouldn't have had the chance to come here."

Mu Chen was taken aback upon hearing this, but nodded in agreement.

However, my heart was also stirred.

Lin Jin was even more shrewd than he had imagined.

The reason for his swift arrival at the Blacksmith Association was probably not just because he was poor, but because he realized the risks associated with the abilities of his martial soul.

shrewd……

Also good.

In today's world, you can't survive without being shrewd!

Mu Chen felt no anger at Lin Jin's "scheming".

On the contrary, this made him appreciate Lin Jin, his disciple, even more.

Thinking this, Mu Chen's expression turned serious. He glared at Mu Xi, then looked at Lin Jin.

"Alright, now that this matter is settled, I will begin to formally teach you how to become a blacksmith."

Upon hearing this, Mu Xi's eyes narrowed, and she immediately retreated subtly, trying to escape the scene.

But the next moment, Mu Chen caught her red-handed and pulled her back.

"Now that you're back, there's no need to rush off."

"I...I have an exam tomorrow!"

"Heh, I'll personally escort you back to the academy tonight."

"..."

Mu Xi was pulled aside by Mu Chen to check if her forging skills had improved in the past month.

Lin Jin's homework was relatively simple, even somewhat boring.

Mu Chen specially prepared a pair of tungsten steel hammers of just the right weight for him, and let him keep swinging them.

smash!

This was the first lesson Mu Chen taught Lin Jin.

After only a hundred or so reps, Lin Jin already felt soreness in his arms and could no longer continue.

A pair of tungsten steel hammers, each weighing about ten kilograms.

For an average adult, swinging a hammer a hundred times in a row would be a huge challenge.

Lin Jin is now just a six-year-old child.

If she hadn't already become a Soul Master, and hadn't received Mu Chen's meticulous care during this time, it would have been impossible for her to reach this level.

Ultimately, Lin Jin's physique is still far inferior to that of those beast spirit masters.

Compared to Tang Wulin, who possesses the bloodline of the Golden Dragon King, he is extremely weak.

Therefore, although the lotus flower could provide considerable assistance to his forging.

However, in terms of basic practice, standing out from the crowd is actually quite difficult.

However, Lin Jin did not give up despite the soreness in his arms.

He continued to swing his hammer.

The clanging sound of hammering echoed continuously in the forging chamber.

While testing his daughter, Mu Chen also kept a close eye on Lin Jin.

Seeing the perseverance Lin Jin displayed, an expression of approval appeared in his eyes. At the same time, he already had an idea in his mind about what material Lin Jin should use for his first forging hammer.

Soon, night fell.

Lin Jin paused and rested intermittently, swinging his hammer over a thousand times.

Mu Xi was miserable under Mu Chen's probing, and left in the middle of the night without looking back, without letting Mu Chen see her off.

Lin Jin's studies were not yet finished.

Taking advantage of the recovery period, Mu Chen explained in detail to Lin Jin the relevant precautions for forging, as well as some of his own experience.

As night deepened, Lin Jin sat cross-legged on his bed, meditating, both cultivating his soul power and organizing what he had learned during the day.

Gradually, he fell into a deep meditative state.

the other side.

Mu Chen dialed a number.

After a few beeps, the call was connected.

"what's up?"

Mu Chen's eyes were deep. "You're still my senior brother, aren't you?"

"Ok?"

Zhenhua sensed something was wrong, but still answered instinctively, "Of course, what's wrong? Did you get into some trouble?"

Based on Zhenhua's experience, his junior brother is actually quite arrogant.

Unless they encounter a problem that is absolutely unsolvable, they would never easily approach him.
