Mu Chen kicked open Forging Room's door. The noise was so loud that even the Forging Rooms next door opened the door instantly, revealing their angry faces. However, after seeing that it was Mu Chen who kicked the door, they still managed not to have an attack.
In the center of the room, stood a middle-aged man with handsome appearance, black hair and black eyes. Although he looked like he was only in his thirties, his eyes were full of vicissitudes and depth, and he also had a kind of wisdom that could see through everything.
His sideburns are completely white, in stark contrast to the black hair on his head.
His hands were the most eye-catching, white and slender, at least 50% larger than ordinary people, but had no protruding joints, just like a pair of enlarged women's hands.
Even the skin on the palms is crystal clear and looks like jade.
It is the only Divine Craftsman of the Douluo Continent today--Zhen Hua.
Zhen Hua slowly turned around, his spiritual eyes swept over Long Yuan, and finally landed on Mu Chen, and said expressionlessly, "Mu Chen, when did you develop such a frivolous temper?"
After a pause, he looked at Long Yuan again, his eyes full of inquiry. "Is this the genius you mentioned?"
Mu Chen immediately pushed Long Yuan forward, confidently saying, "That's right! Long Yuan, Eastsea City Vice President Blacksmith Association is ten times more talented than you! I came to him today just to open your eyes to what a true genius is!"
Long Yuan felt funny in his heart. Although he didn't know the specific reason yet, he could make some guesses.
After all, he is very clear about the relationship between Zhen Hua and Mu Chen.
In fact, Zhen Hua and Mu Chen grew up together and were so good at wearing the same pair of pants.
Later, they also entered the blacksmith industry together. Both of them are extremely talented in blacksmithing. They are best friends and were once their biggest competitors.
Just like Yu Xiaogang and Flender fell in love with Liu Erlong at the same time twenty thousand years ago, and Long Xiaoyao and Mu En fell in love with Ye Xishui at the same time ten thousand years ago, these two fell in love with Yuan Bao'er at the same time.
Didn't San like this plot so much?
Long Yuan suddenly cursed.
But finally there was an opportunity, and Zhen Hua chose that opportunity, and finally improved continuously and became Divine Craftsman; while Mu Chen embraced the beauty and took Yuan Bao'er to Eastsea City, which is also her wife's hometown.
Of course, Mu Chen has never been convinced about the fact that Zhen Hua became Divine Craftsman. This time he came to Blacksmith Association Headquarters for a meeting on a whim and wanted to give Zhen Hua a good blow.
After listening to Mu Chen's words, Zhen Hua smiled, his eyes fell on the badge on Long Yuan's chest, and his tone was a bit serious. "You are so young, Level 6 Grandmaster? But Soul Refinement does not rely on badges. I have lived for so many years, and I have seen not only a thousand but also eight hundred masters. Those who can really understand Soul Refinement can be counted on both hands."
His words are of course an exaggeration, but we can also see how difficult Soul Refinement is.
"Huh! Whether it can be done or not is not up to you, you have to let it happen!" Mu Chen put it next to Long Yuan's ear and whispered, "Long Yuan, I have seen your progress. It just so happens that this time is a good opportunity. I will help you blackmail this bastard later. He has a lot of good things."
Soul Refinement of Long Yuan learned from Mu Chen, so he is very clear about Long Yuan's current level. Soul Refinement is definitely a no-brainer, but he hasn't taken the test yet. This time, he takes advantage of this good opportunity to kill three birds with one stone.
"Oh? Really? Long Yuan, are you really good at Soul Refinement?" Zhen Hua looked at Mu Chen's serious face, and finally took it seriously.
Long Yuan nodded. "Zhen Hua Grandmaster, although I am not old, I still know a little bit about Soul Refinement."
"Well, since you are so confident, let's give it a try." Zhen Hua suddenly showed a wicked smile, waved his hand, and a piece of metal that was completely blue and seemed to have stars flowing inside slowly rose up in the center of the forging platform.
"This is Star Abyss Dark Iron, a rare treasure recorded in the association's records that can only be seen in a hundred years. It is extremely spiritual and extremely difficult to forge. Normally Soul Master would feel unsteady even when approaching it, let alone forging it." Zhen Hua took the photo. When it comes to shooting metal, his Titled Douluo strength naturally has no influence. "I originally wanted to forge it myself, but since you are so confident, why not give it a try? If you can succeed, it will be yours. In addition, I can also let you choose any one from my collection."
He said without hesitation that although he spent a lot of money to buy this piece of Star Abyss Dark Iron, if Long Yuan can really complete Soul Refinement, it would be okay to give it to him. After all, it means that he is a real genius, and they Blacksmith Association will also have successors in the future, which is equivalent to a disguised investment.
Long Yuan's eyes narrowed.
He could clearly feel that inside this piece of Star Abyss Dark Iron, there was an extremely violent but extremely restrained spirituality, which was more unruly than any metal he had ever forged before.
Of course, he didn't use his spiritual consciousness or his own strength to feel it. He just instinctively felt the "temper" of this piece of metal, otherwise it wouldn't be this feeling.
Mu Chen immediately became anxious. "Zhen Hua! You are deliberately making things difficult! If you use materials of this level right from the start, who can guarantee success the first time?"
Although he has great faith in the level of Long Yuan, even he himself has a success rate of less than 60% when performing Soul Refinement on this level of metal.
Moreover, he had never seen Long Yuan forge this level of metal before. He usually practiced with "ordinary" metals such as Sinking Silver and Refined Gold.
Zhen Hua ignored Mu Chen's call and just looked at Long Yuan silently, waiting for his answer.
Long Yuan raised his hand and held down Mu Chen, taking a step forward. "Okay, let me try."
Although he said he would give it a try, Long Yuan's tone was extremely confident, as if he had already assumed that he would succeed.
"Okay, let me give you a try." Zhen Hua smiled slightly and forcibly pulled Mu Chen towards the small door on the side. Behind the door was a small room where you could use special glass to observe what was going on in Forging Room.
After Mu Chen and Zhen Hua left, Soul Power slowly surged around Long Yuan. There was no earth-shattering momentum, but the temperature of the entire Forging Room dropped slightly.
He did not pick up the hammer immediately, but closed his eyes and gently placed his right hand on the surface of Star Abyss Dark Iron.
He naturally has his own methods for these violent metals.
Divine consciousness penetrated into the metal without reservation.
The next moment, countless fragmented, violent spirits, like broken stars, flowed and collided inside the metal, as if countless souls were shouting in unison, resisting being forged and shaped.
It can be said that this is not an ordinary metal, but a living and spiritual treasure.
But I want to forge it, but I am stuck on this point.
The so-called Spirit Refinement Spirit Awakening, Soul Refinement summons the soul, and Heavenly Forging conferred the god.
Spirit Refinement is to give spirituality and life to metal, turning it from a dead thing into a living thing; Soul Refinement is to give wisdom and soul to metal, so that it has preliminary self-awareness; and Heavenly Forging is the process of turning this new life into a strong one.
But for this Star Abyss Dark Iron, the situation is completely different. For it, the process of Spirit Refinement is a process of killing all the spirituality in its body and starting anew.
This is something it is absolutely unwilling to do, so it will try its best to resist this process, even at the risk of self-destruction!
