Douluo: Start with a stone

Chapter 2 Martial Spirit Forging

The next day.

In the early morning, the sunlight shines through the window and shines on Shi Yun's young face, exuding the warmth of facial cleanser.

In a daze, Shi Yun rubbed his hands gently in the bed, slowly opened his eyes, blocked the dazzling sunlight with his right hand, sat up slowly, and moved his hands.

"Fortunately, there is nothing wrong with my body. The soul power in my body seems to have grown a bit, more than twice as much. Is this considered level three? It can be considered a blessing in disguise."

Shi Yun could clearly feel that the soul power in his body had become stronger, even more than twice the original amount. He had just awakened his martial soul yesterday and was electrocuted before he could practice the meditation method given by the martial soul hall.

Hearing a jingling sound, Shi Yun knew that Shi Pu had already started his daily work. Unlike Tang Hao, the villagers did not need to wait when they came to their blacksmith shop, but were preparing various kinds of work. Just choose from the ironware. Some items that need to be customized need to be made fresh. When you don't need to replenish the ironware, you only need to use forged iron blocks as spares.

Seeing that breakfast had been prepared on the table not far away, Shi Yun felt a surge of heat in his heart. After a brief wash, he began to destroy the food on the table.

"Xiaoyun, are you okay?" Shi Yun, who was eating, heard a familiar voice reaching his ears.

Shi Yun put down his rice bowl and looked at Shi Pu, shook his head and said, "It's okay. It was Wuhun who was struck by lightning last night, and his body was just numbed by electricity."

Shi Pu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. Just stay at home and don't run around. In two months, the Notting Junior Soul Master Academy will start. Then you can go to school properly."

"Okay, okay, okay...uncle."

Hearing Shi Pu's nagging, Shi Yun responded.

"Uncle, can you teach me forging?" Shi Yun asked tentatively.

"Hey...little bastard, are you stupid because of the electric shock? You are not a good soul master, what? You want to be a blacksmith like me."

When Shi Pu heard this, he immediately thought that Shi Yun was dissatisfied with his innate soul power and had given up on cultivation.

Shi Yun also understood that the status of blacksmiths in Douluo Continent was not high, at least in this era without advanced soul guides and battle armors.

Shi Yun immediately explained, "This is related to my practice. I don't learn casting, I only learn hammer and iron forging."

Shi Pu was not stupid, he understood Shi Yun's intention immediately. As an uncle, he certainly knew what Shi Yun's martial spirit was, but he was shocked by Shi Yun's thoughts. He also understood Shi Yun, his little nephew always There are some wild ideas.

"You mean... you want to forge your own martial soul?"

Shi Yun nodded and pointed to the ores piled up in the corner of the room, "Since they can be forged into iron, martial arts might also be able to do it. Do you want to try your technique?"

Hearing this, Shi Pu hesitated, "Xiaoyun, you can't make fun of your own martial spirit. What if..."

Shi Yun raised his right hand, and Wuhun slowly appeared in the palm of his right hand, interrupting Shi Pu's words.

"Uncle, look at the difference after my martial spirit was struck by lightning."

Shi Pu looked at Shi Yun's martial spirit. As an experienced blacksmith, he could tell at a glance that Shi Yun's martial spirit was different from yesterday. It contained more iron and was more densely distributed in the ore.

"It's definitely different."

Shi Pu subconsciously raised his hand and touched it. The next second, his pupils shrank and his fingers instinctively retracted.

"Is this... thunder-patterned iron?"

Shi Yun was a little surprised when he heard this. His body was numb last night, so he just looked at his martial soul casually, without touching it.

"Uncle, are you sure this is not ordinary iron?" Shi Yun said in surprise.

"Little bastard, feel for yourself and see if you feel an electric shock. How can you admit your mistake? I have been a blacksmith for more than 20 years, and I am also a Level 2 blacksmith certified by the Blacksmith Association. According to the teacher at the time, as long as you have some soul power, you My uncle's achievements are at least a third-level blacksmith."

As he spoke, a proud look appeared on Shi Pu's face.

Shi Yun touched his martial soul and felt the numbness of electric shock. He only casually looked at the later parts of Douluo Dalu and didn't remember much about the levels of blacksmiths.

Shi Yun asked doubtfully, "Second-level blacksmith, is he very powerful?"

Hearing this, Shi Pu was quite emotional and explained, "The requirements of the second-level blacksmith are to forge the metal to the level of a hundred forgings, which is also the limit of ordinary people's physical strength, while the third-level blacksmiths are required to forge the metal to the level of a thousand forgings. , it is impossible to complete it without soul power and relying on the physical strength of ordinary people. As for the higher level, I don’t know.”

Shi Yun looked surprised, "Uncle, how about you give me the Hammer Spirit?"

Shi Pu looked serious, "Xiaoyun, this is no joke. Are you sure you want to try it?"

<divclass="contentadv">"Let's try..."

Shi Yun immediately took Shi Pu to the forging platform.

"If something goes wrong, you kid will be beaten."

Shi Pu said helplessly, trying to make Shi Yun give up.

Shi Yun consoled him, "No, no. Wasn't there nothing wrong with the lightning strike last night?"

In fact, Shi Yun didn't know what would happen if he put his martial soul into the forging platform.

To be on the safe side, Shi Pu decided to use the stupidest and safest method, which was to continuously beat the metal to remove impurities, so that he could stop at any time even if there was a problem.

Shi Pu summoned his martial spirit, and a forging hammer appeared in Shi Pu's hand.

Shi Pu said seriously, "I'm ready to start. If you feel uncomfortable, you must speak up immediately."

Shi Yun saw Shi Pu slowly raising his hand, his whole body tense, like a fully drawn bow, and he let out a muffled groan as the forging hammer in his hand fell on the martial spirit.

bang...

Shi Yun instantly felt a slight shock coming from the depths of his soul.

Shi Yun thought to himself, "This is the feeling of collision between weapon souls. No wonder Tang San used the Clear Sky Hammer's weapon soul in the soul master competition, which would consume a lot of concentration."

At this time, Shi Pu stared at Shi Yun, "There is nothing unusual about it."

Shi Yun shook his head, "You continue."

Seeing that Shi Yun was fine, Shi Pu continued to move.

With Shi Pu's movements, Shi Yun felt more and more tired. This tiredness did not come from his body, nor was his soul power exhausted, but from the depths of his soul, the loss of spiritual energy.

A quarter of an hour later.

"Okay, uncle, you can stop now."

Shi Yun understood the principle and immediately stopped. Shi Pu thought something was wrong with his nephew and stopped quickly.

Shi Pu asked Shi Yun with a serious face, "What's the problem, Xiao Yun."

"There is no problem, it's just that the beating of the martial soul requires soul power. Now that the soul power has been almost consumed, it can be over."

Shi Yun didn't explain too much to Shi Pu, he just covered it up with the reason of soul power so as not to worry Shi Pu.

Shi Pu nodded, relieved.

"As expected of a rare metal, it is much more difficult to forge than ordinary iron. After hammering it for so long, the shape has only changed slightly. It seems that my level is not enough to forge this rare metal."

Shi Pu felt a little emotional. In his career as a blacksmith, he had never forged a rare metal like thunder-patterned iron.

Shi Yun asked curiously, "Uncle, if you were of your level, how long would it take to forge thunder-patterned iron without any impurities?"

Shi Pu shook his head and explained, "With my level, if I just rely on hammering, I will never be able to forge thunder-patterned iron without impurities in my life. Xiaoyun, you know, the physical strength and strength of a soul master are far beyond ordinary people." , Level 2 is the limit for ordinary people, but the gap between Level 2 and Level 3 is not just as simple as going from a hundred forgings to a thousand forgings, the power of each hammer blow is an insurmountable gap."

After hearing this, Shi Yun showed a look of surprise on his face and yawned.

"Uncle, you go ahead and do it first. I'll go back to the room and sleep for a while. I'm still a little tired after standing for a long time after being electrocuted last night."

"Then you go and have a good rest. From tomorrow on, you can work with me during the day, and at night you can read the meditation method given by Lord Wuhundian. Although I can't teach you anything beyond the second level, there is no problem in laying the foundation for you. . It’s also good to exercise. Look at the ordinary soul masters in the city who act like weaklings every day. If you give me the same soul power as them, your uncle can beat a group of them."

After speaking, Shi Pu turned around and left, while Shi Yun looked at his uncle's back in surprise.

His uncle could understand the simple principle of physical training, but those soul masters with low talents were obsessed with meditation. This made Shi Yun have to lament that the soul master's training system was too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in Douluo Continent.
