You Want to Steal My Son

His world seemed to have expanded; although he did not use his eyes to see, everything around him became clear.

His mental power seemed to have entered another level.

This was the Spirit Abyss Realm, which stood above the Spirit Sea Realm! It was the Spirit Abyss Realm capable of absorbing a hundred-thousand-year soul spirit!

The Spirit Abyss Realm almost meant that as long as a soul master's body did not encounter issues in the future, they would inevitably become a Titled Douluo.

However, Mu Han paid no attention to this at the moment, because the forging was still continuing.

A crisp echo emanated from within the Jade Silver.

Upon hearing this sound, Zhen Hua felt his body jolt violently.

It sounded like a very ordinary echo!

Yet, to his ears, it was as if he had heard the most wonderful thing in the world.

He understood all too well what this signified.

The echo was a phased victory for Soul Forging!

It meant that the various energies injected into the metal had unified and could now assist in the forging from within.

Many level-six blacksmiths never reached this point in their entire lives, and this point was also the most difficult part of Soul Forging!

In fact, this was the efficacy of the Cloud Gold Forging Hammer.

This pair of Cloud Gold Forging Hammer was of excellent quality and had followed a Divine Craftsman for many years, having been imbued with the aura of Zhen Hua himself.

Although this was only the forging hammer Zhen Hua used before becoming a Saint Craftsman.

It was, after all, an object of a Divine Craftsman, especially since that Divine Craftsman was right beside him at this moment.

Cloud Gold itself was a Spirit Alloy.

And Mu Han's martial soul, Gold-Water Mutual Containment, could bring the fusion rate of Spirit Alloy to one hundred percent.

Under the deliberate guidance of Mu Han through Gold-Water Mutual Containment, the essence, energy, and spirit left behind by Zhen Hua within the hammer were channeled out.

Coupled with his excellent state at this moment, being in the midst of an epiphany and breakthrough, the Soul Forging Echo finally appeared.

Zhen Hua's Fusion Forging techniques were of no use to Mu Han at all.

His martial soul was the best medium itself.

If one only considered Fusion Forging, even all the Divine Craftsmen throughout history combined could not compare to him.

From beginning to end, he only wanted to use Zhen Hua's forging hammer to forge by Zhen Hua's side.

The biggest difference between Spirit Forging and Soul Forging was that Spirit Forging bestowed life, while Soul Forging bestowed one's own heritage upon the metal. It was like a soul inheritance.

Everyone's blood, soul power, and mental power could never be exactly the same.

Therefore, the Soul Forging Echo could only impart a feeling; there was no technique to speak of, and it required the blacksmith to comprehend it themselves.

After reaching the Spirit Abyss Realm, Mu Han successfully touched upon the Soul Forging Echo.

Relying on the Soul Forging Echo, Mu Han's mental power, which had just accumulated and broken through, quickly stabilized and completed Soul Forging Solidification.

Once solidification was completed, seventy percent of the Soul Forging was finished.

After the final Soul Awakening was completed, the Soul Forging would be a success.

And Soul Awakening required using the energy injected during forging to call out to the Soul Forging metal, forming a mutual resonance with it.

Spirit Forging with vitality was just like a plant, but Soul Forging with a soul would make the metal become like an animal.

However, among the three major hurdles of Soul Forging, the most difficult one was actually the first: the Soul Forging Echo.

This required more luck than anything else.

Blacksmiths who could achieve this, provided they had enough time to accumulate experience, could almost all eventually become Saint Craftsmen.

And Mu Han had even achieved Soul Forging Solidification. All that was needed now was the accumulation of time and a deeper understanding of Soul Forging.

But even Mu Han himself had not expected that he would actually succeed.

He succeeded on his very first attempt?

That piece of Jade Silver, fused from Sinking Silver and Magic Silver, had actually merged directly into the center of his brow.

The highly ductile Sinking Silver corresponded to the corrosion attribute.

The element-affine Magic Silver corresponded to the fire attribute.

Mu Han's first Soul Forging work had actually fused directly with his head soul bone?

To be precise, it had fused with his Sea of Consciousness.

After all, his Sea of Consciousness had originally absorbed the evil spirit conceived when this piece of Jade Silver was Spirit Forged.

Now, could this only be considered "using the original soup to cook the original ingredients"?

This forging process was truly exhilarating, and Mu Han discovered that his mental power could reach an even higher level.

Zhen Hua's brows had furrowed tightly at some unknown point.

"Thank you for the forging hammers; I've found the feeling." Mu Han turned around and spoke respectfully to Zhen Hua.

Cherishing one's own secrets is a trait of the strong, and the blacksmithing world is no exception.

Zhen Hua, however, said in a deep voice, "Whose disciple are you, and how old are you this year?"

"My foster father is Mu Chen. This junior, Mu Han, greets Martial Uncle. I am fourteen years old this year."

The moment these words were spoken, the entire room erupted in an uproar!

Spirit Forging means a Saint Craftsman—a fourteen-year-old Saint Craftsman!

One must know that even Divine Craftsman Zhen Hua was only at the sixth level at eighteen, which was already a record-breaking feat.

Wasn't the youngest Saint Craftsman supposed to be Feng Wuyu from Shrek Academy?

And he was thirty-four, right?

Mu Han hadn't just broken the record; he had surpassed it by twenty years!

Zhen Hua's chest heaved slightly, and his eyes were clearly unfocused. "Mu Chen."

He knew about this kid, Mu Han.

Mu Han had caused quite a stir a while back, and Mu Chen had been the one covering for him.

But in reality, Mu Chen couldn't handle it at all; it was Zhen Hua who had been covering everything.

However, Zhen Hua was also very busy and had never looked into the details.

He only knew that Mu Han's research capabilities were formidable, and his Beast Soul Weaponization project had overturned the entire Spirit Master world.

Moreover, the Fatui established by Mu Han was a super-organization capable of threatening the Federation.

In terms of high-level combat power, it had already surpassed any of the Federation's four major organizations.

"Chairman, I have already absorbed that Jade Silver. I can pay for the raw materials by completing tasks."

Zhen Hua shook his head. "It was yours to begin with, and so are those forging hammers."

As he spoke, he pointed to the pair of Cloud Gold Forging Hammer.

Possessing the Quake Hammer special effect, this pair of forging hammers was absolutely priceless!

Not to mention that they came from the hands of a Divine Craftsman.

However, this pair of forging hammers was no longer at the Spirit Forging level; they were now Soul-Forged Cloud Gold Hammer.

Although that piece of Jade Silver had been absorbed by Mu Han, the Cloud Gold Forging Hammer had already fused with Mu Han's Gold-Water Mutual Containment martial soul.

After Mu Han's spiritual power broke through repeatedly, these hammers had also been upgraded.

Now, the compatibility between these Cloud Gold Forging Hammer and Mu Han even exceeded their compatibility with their original owner, Zhen Hua.

With this pair of forging hammers, Mu Han would soon be able to stabilize his level at the seventh grade.

Such a promising talent meant that the Blacksmith Association had its next Divine Craftsman!

As long as he could become a Titled Douluo, becoming a Divine Craftsman was almost a certainty.

Even if he had to be propped up by heavenly treasures, it could be done.

What did an unstable foundation matter? As long as he could reach the Titled Douluo level, having enough spirit power to forge was sufficient.

Therefore, Zhen Hua was not worried about these things at all.

In terms of resources and wealth, he ranked in the top ten across the entire continent.

What's more, Mu Han was not short on money either.

So, after Zhen Hua took Mu Han to the small cafeteria, he immediately contacted Mu Chen, appealing to his reason and emotions:

"Junior Brother, I don't need a disciple; I need a child to look after me in my old age and see me off!"

"Senior Brother, are you trying to snatch my son away?" A soft, sweet voice came from the other side of the spirit communication device.

Zhen Hua shivered involuntarily. "Bao'er?"
