Douluo Continent: Simulating Douluo Dalu III, Exclusively Targeting Tang San

The fluctuations weren't too intense, but they were visible to the naked eye, and the occurrence of these fluctuations meant that he had successfully helped "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" establish a fixed pattern.

A faint smile appeared on Gong Yu's face. Suddenly, he opened his eyes. Two beams of purple light, almost tangible, shot out from his eyes— the Purple Demon Eye.

This was simply injecting pure Spiritual Power into the metal, so he only used the Purple Demon Eye and did not switch to the Ice and Fire Twin Pupils.

The Purple Demon Eye unleashed its Spiritual Power, instantly enveloping the entire piece of metal. The metal surface emitted a faint luster, and stimulated by the Purple Demon Eye, "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" immediately produced a buzzing sound.

In an instant, red and purple light shone brightly, illuminating the entire forging room and rendering it the same color.

Gong Yu raised both hands simultaneously, and the two Soul Forging Heavy Silver fell into his palms. To save time, he had switched to using two hammers for forging a long time ago.

Under his grasp, the surfaces of the two hammers emitted a soft glow, as if they had come alive.

"Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" has already been tempered by the energy of heaven and earth, so it does not need to be forged again and can be used directly for forging.

At this moment, Gong Yu's eyes narrowed, and his twin hammers fell fiercely towards "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" like shooting stars.

Chapter 179 Soul Forging

Ding-dong...

The two hammers struck the "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder," instantly amplifying its red and purple aura. For a moment, red and purple lights flashed wildly, creating a mesmerizing effect.

The twin hammers in Gong Yu's hands lit up the instant they collided, their dazzling silver light radiating an overwhelming sense of oppression.

The two hammers fell in a perfectly timed sequence. In the instant following the flash of golden and blue light, under the illumination of silver light, and guided by Gong Yu's Spiritual Power, the red and purple light emitted by "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" slowed down slightly.

At that moment, Gong Yu circulated his qi and blood, combined with his Spiritual Power, and directly attacked "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" and the Golden Dragon King’s Roar, the dragon's might surging in the roar.

Immediately afterwards, the red and purple light that had been slowing down suddenly began to spin, swirling like a vortex, accompanied by Gong Yu 'Golden Dragon King’s Roar.

At first, the two colors of light were somewhat uneven, but soon their trajectories began to slowly overlap, and the two colors of light superimposed and changed evenly.

That roar wasn't some superb forging technique, but rather a skill bestowed upon him by the Golden Dragon King Bloodline, called Dragon Might Intimidation. Dragon Might Intimidation -Inducing itself contains powerful Spiritual Power.

"Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" is too active and needs external force to calm its active elements so that it can be better hammered. The Dragon Might Intimidation does just that.

Gong Yu raised his twin hammers, a faint smile appearing on his face. The hammers fell again, but the speed at which they fell appeared to be very slow.

When the pair of hammers struck "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" again, a series of dense knocking sounds rang out from inside the metal. It was the sound of layers of metal colliding. Even with stacked hammers, it would be impossible for so many collisions to occur at once.

In that instant, Gong Yu's wrist trembled, completing Five Consecutive Vibrations. With the added hammer effect, that's fifteen strikes. Double hammers double that, making it thirty strikes.

The Five Consecutive Vibrations combo isn't a particularly powerful forging technique; it's simply a stacked hammer effect. However, no one in this era can achieve it. Even Gong Xiao, who has reached the level of Spirit Forging, can only manage a three-strike combo.

However, for a Soul Master to create a multi-layered hammer during forging, in addition to requiring the blacksmith to have great confidence in himself, he also needs to have a complete understanding of the properties of the metal.

Moreover, it is much more difficult to stack hammers on highly reactive metals like "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" than on ordinary metals, because the high reactivity often weakens the shock force left by the hammer.

Just then, a dazzling light suddenly burst forth from the "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder".

The red and purple lights seemed to merge into one in an instant, transforming into a pillar of light intertwined with red and purple that shot into the sky.

This strange phenomenon suddenly erupted, attracting the attention of countless Soul Saint, Soul Douluo, and even a small number of Titled Douluo.

However, when the powerful figures turned their gazes to the Academy of the Gods and discovered that the strange phenomenon originated from there, they all withdrew their attention. This was because the Academy of the Gods was not something they could afford to provoke. Whatever happened there was Academy of the Gods private matter.

Within the Academy of the Gods, the beam of light caused a brief commotion. It was only after some teachers personally went to quell the disturbance and lied that it was an anomaly caused by an experiment being conducted by the academy that the commotion was gradually brought under control.

The beam of light shot up more than three zhang (approximately 10 meters) high, its reddish-purple radiance dazzling and full of vitality, as if it were about to fill the entire world.

Gong Xiao watched from the side and couldn't help but cover her mouth. Others might not know what was happening, but she saw it all clearly.

The strange phenomenon was clearly caused by the Thousand Refinement with Spirit Thousand Refinement with Spirit, but the light it emitted shot up more than three zhang high. Could this still be considered Thousand Refinement with Spirit? It probably far exceeded the level of Thousand Refinement with Spirit, yet it wasn't Spirit Forging. So how should this be classified?

When the Thousand Refinement with Spirit, the higher the light rises, the higher the quality of the Thousand Refinement. If the light is one foot high, it can be called a First-Grade Thousand Refinement, and it is of very good quality.

For most metals, the limit is that they can emit a five-foot beam of light.

However, this "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" could actually rise to a height of about three zhang (approximately 10 meters), which shows that its quality had reached an extremely high level.

The higher the quality of the metal, the higher its activity. The higher the activity of the metal, the more difficult it is to achieve the highest First-Grade Thousand Refinement, let alone generate a three-zhang-long spiritual light.

Gradually recovering from her shock, Gong Xiao thought to herself that reaching Gong Yu's level was probably something she could never achieve in this lifetime.

Judging from Gong Yu's series of actions, he is undoubtedly capable of completing the Thousand Refinement instantly.

The secret lies in that shout just now. Through that shout, guided by Spiritual Power, "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" instantly reached a delicate balance, and its internal activity became regular. Only after Gong Yu grasped this regularity was he able to complete the Thousand Refinement.

To achieve this, one needs to be perfect in creating patterns, seize the right opportunity, and then succeed in one fell swoop.

A faint light appeared on Gong Yu's face. He flashed and leaped up, smashing his hammers directly into the rising light that was over ten feet high.

The crimson-purple light dissipated under the hammers, transforming into halos that rippled outwards, and a deep Dragon's Roar echoed from Gong Yu's mouth.

The Dragon's Roar's roar was soft and deep, yet inexhaustible. The dissipated red-purple light, as if drawn by something, swirled and circled around "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder," turning itself red-purple and solidifying the form of "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder."

The continuous roar of Dragon's Roar echoed, always remaining within a single tone.

Amidst the Dragon's Roar's roar, the crimson-purple light released when "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder"Thousand Refinement was completed lingered, swirling around it for a long time.

Gong Yu continued to forge the metal by swinging his hammer, preventing the spiritual light from returning, thus preserving the metal's spiritual essence to the greatest extent possible.

"Boom!"

About ten minutes later, when Gong Yu's two hammers fell simultaneously and slammed hard onto the surface of "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder", the red and purple light suddenly froze.

Immediately afterwards, a reddish-purple vortex appeared out of thin air around the metal, frantically absorbing various elements from the surrounding environment.

The Spirit Forging was successful! Thousand Refinement with Spirit, and the Spirit Forging Creation!

The jubilation that erupted from the "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" even infected every piece of metal in the forging room.

Some of the high-grade metals themselves emitted a faint humming sound, as if responding to "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder," as if paying tribute to it.

Metal creation is a miracle of Spirit Forging; the higher the quality of the metal, the more difficult it becomes to Spirit Forging.

The crimson-purple vortex fluctuated violently, and Gong Yu took a step back, catching her breath slightly.

The next instant, Gong Yu's eyes suddenly brightened, and the hammer in his left hand lashed out, slamming into his own chest with a dull thud.

Chapter 180 Blood Sacrifice

A violent heartbeat followed, and Gong Yu opened his mouth, spitting out a mouthful of blood that landed right in the center of the "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" vortex.

"Young Master..." Upon seeing Gong Yu's actions, Gong Xiao instinctively raised her hand and called out. She wanted to tell Gong Yu that this was just forging and there was no need to resort to self-harm.

But when she saw Gong Yu concentrate on forging again after spitting out a mouthful of blood, she stopped midway through her shout.

Gong Yu's actions were nothing more than a blood sacrifice.

This is Gong Yu's second blood sacrifice. The first time was when he forged Half-Step Soul Forging metal. That piece of metal was later sent to Lou Gao in Gengxin City. Today is his second blood sacrifice, in order to truly advance to the Soul Forging.

Back then, he was relatively weak, and the seal on the Golden Dragon King Bloodline hadn't been broken yet, so the Golden Dragon King Bloodline in his body wasn't as concentrated as it is now. Now, the concentration of his bloodline far exceeds what it was back then, so it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Gong Yu is half Dragon Clan.

His mouthfuls of Golden Dragon King blood, fused with the purest life essence of a superior being, were unparalleled in the world in terms of the richness of his life energy and the purity of his Golden Dragon King Bloodline.

Therefore, when that mouthful of blood landed on the metal surface, the entire "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" instantly emitted a loud buzzing sound.

Then, the buzzing sound instantly transformed into Dragon's Roar, and the red and purple halo in the air instantly transformed into a dragon, circling around "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" joyfully.

Because of the blood sacrifice, the grade of "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" was directly upgraded by a large margin. The red and purple dragon-shaped light and shadow moved in and out of "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder", constantly transforming and cleansing the newly created life.

Gong Yu's Soul Core and Dragon Core pulsed in sync, silently feeling the intimacy of "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" merging with his own bloodline.

The Golden Dragon King Bloodline was so domineering that it was completely fused into one with "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" in the blink of an eye.

A faint smile appeared on Gong Yu's face. He could clearly feel that during the blood sacrifice, the last impurities inside "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" had been completely removed, and had formed a subtle connection with his Spiritual Power.

After the blood sacrifice, he was able to control the "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" with his Spiritual Power through the bloodline connection between them.

At this moment, Gong Yu let out another Dragon's Roar, and golden scales suddenly emerged from the surface of his skin. He grew taller, and the hammers in his hands, infused with the power of the Golden Dragon King Bloodline, turned golden.

At this moment, he looked like a dragon-man covered in scales, radiating dragon might, and then he began forging again.

Each strike of the forging hammers was accompanied by a deafening Dragon's Roar's roar. With each blow, it was as if a Golden Dragon was being poured into the "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder," and the red-purple light emanating from the "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" itself became increasingly translucent.

In this era, no one could teach Gong Yu how to advance in the path of forging. He lacked sufficient skills and experience, so he could only explore and use the simple and crude method of blood sacrifice to make up for his shortcomings.

As early as when Gong Yu began the blood sacrifice, he had already made preparations for the subsequent forging.

The greatest purpose of blood sacrifice is to create an opportunity for oneself to perfectly fuse one's bloodline power with "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder".

He forged a whole piece of "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" as part of himself, and the resulting "Liu Huo Hong Lei" perfectly fused with the Golden Dragon King Bloodline, thus producing some of the characteristics of the Golden Dragon King Bloodline.

In doing so, when Gong Yu endowed "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" with intelligence, he also gave it a part of himself.

However, while this made the "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" metal even more compatible with Gong Yu, from now on, only he himself could use it.

However, this was a plan he had made long ago. He was naturally reluctant to let others use such a high-quality metal as "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder," so he had to restrict its use through blood sacrifice, allowing only himself to use it.

With the fusion of his own Golden Dragon King Bloodline aura, Gong Yu was completely immersed in the communication between himself and "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder".

"Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" is like a newborn but very lively and adorable child, constantly growing under Gong Yu's forging and energy infusion.

The scales on his body gradually changed, and specks of light appeared at his joints. Gong Yu's body also began to grow taller, Dragon's Roar Battle Armor appeared, covering his entire body.

The Dragon's Roar Battle Armor is the Two-Word Battle Armor worn by Gong Yu.

As the Dragon's Roar Battle Armor appeared, Gong Yu's aura surged once more. The fluctuations of his aura, resembling those of a ferocious Ferocious Beast, made Gong Xiao feel a little short of breath.

Finally, as the pair of gleaming golden forging hammers fell, he suddenly heard a melodious cheer beside him.

The next instant, the "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" shook for a moment, then transformed into a small golden dragon that soared into the air and pounced directly in front of Gong Yu, burrowing into his Dragon's Roar Battle Armor.

Instantly, Gong Yu's entire Battle Armor shone brightly. The surface of the Dragon's Roar Battle Armor, which was already covered with dragon patterns, instantly gained a layer of crystal-clear, glaze-like luster.

The dragon patterns on it are so lifelike, as if they have come to life. The Dragon's Roar Battle Armor even begins to produce a slight wriggling sensation, giving people a strange feeling.

There were no grand displays of power or dazzling effects, but Gong Yu succeeded; the Soul Forging was finally complete.

The "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" had already reached a level of communion with his mind when it had just completed its Soul Forging, which is why it was able to integrate into his Two-Word Battle Armor immediately.

With the integration of the Soul-Forged Metal "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder," although Gong Yu has not yet begun forging Three-Word Battle Armor, "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" has already begun to improve his Two-Word Battle Armor, allowing it to better evolve into Three-Word Battle Armor in the future.

Unfortunately, he originally planned to undergo Soul Forging Fusion Forging, but after the blood sacrifice, the "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" directly merged into his Dragon's Roar Battle Armor after the Soul Forging was successful, so the Fusion Forging that should have been carried out could not be completed.

Seeing that the piece of metal had penetrated into Gong Yu's Two-Word Battle Armor, and that Gong Yu's movements had stopped, Gong Xiao asked, "Young Master, did you succeed?"

Gong Yu nodded but didn't speak. He gently put down the forging hammer in his hand, raised his hand to signal Gong Xiao not to speak either, and then closed his eyes to fully feel the changes after "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" was integrated into his Dragon's Roar Battle Armor.

After observation, he was astonished to discover that the "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder" after completing the Soul Forging was like a catalyst, causing the Dragon's Roar Battle Armor to constantly change and improve.

Under the influence of "Blazing Fire Roaring Thunder", some minor inconsistencies were gradually being improved.

The Battle Armor on its entire body seemed to have softened, or rather, become a better prototype, just waiting for the next evolution.

The next evolution will be when his full set of Two-Word Battle Armor evolves into Three-Word Battle Armor.

Chapter 181 One must always be wary of others

After experiencing the changes in the full Battle Armor, Gong Yu slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at Gong Xiao, Gong Yu slowly said, "Xiaoxiao, after my Dragon's Roar Battle Armor fused with that piece of Soul-Forged Metal, it has entered the prototype state of Three-Word Battle Armor. Therefore, it is impossible to use it in battle before it is fully upgraded to Three-Word Battle Armor."

So for the next few days, I decided to stay at the blacksmith's workshop and finish the Three-Word Battle Armor in one go. As for the Soul Master Elite Tournament, go back and tell your older sister that I won't be going to watch it anytime soon.

The finals are in about a month, and we'll be competing in Spirit City. So, Gong Yu wants to use this time to quickly forge his Three-Word Battle Armor, which will give him more ways to protect himself.

"Yes, young master." Gong Xiao nodded, but then she seemed to remember something and asked, "But... young master, aren't you going to watch our battle against the Shitrek Academy?"

Upon hearing this, Gong Yu was also taken aback, and then asked in return, "When was our battle against the Shitrek Academy?"

Gong Xiao said, "Tomorrow."

"I see!" Gong Yu pondered for a moment, stroking his chin, and then said, "Alright, then I'll start making the Three-Word Battle Armor after watching the match tomorrow."

"Yes, yes, I'll do as you say, young master." Gong Xiao was overjoyed. She had felt a little disappointed when Gong Yu said he would stay in the blacksmith's workshop. After all, before they started forging, Gong Yu had told her to leave the door open at night. If Gong Yu stayed in the blacksmith's workshop, the door wouldn't need to be left open.

Gong Xiao blushed and looked at Gong Yu, asking shyly, "Young Master, should I leave the door open for you tonight?"

"Oh dear, what a forgetful thing I am, I completely forgot about that." Gong Yu looked a little embarrassed. He glanced at Gong Xiao's rosy cheeks, which were quite adorable with their shyness, and immediately changed his mind, saying, "There's no need to leave the door open tonight."

"Well... alright then!" Hearing Gong Yu's words, Gong Xiao's face fell again.

"I meant you don't need to leave the door open tonight." Gong Yu walked over, raised his hand and gently pinched Gong Xiao's cheek, whispering in her ear in a voice only the two of them could hear, "But I didn't say I was going to let you off the hook, I just wanted to move the time forward. Let's go back now."

After saying that, Gong Yu gave Gong Xiao a princess carry, then tapped the ground with his toes, creating a wormhole. He then carried Gong Xiao inside.

Time quickly passed to the next day.

Early in the morning, Gong Yu and his group arrived at the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena.
