Soul is a groundbreaking achievement in this era, but it doesn't mean much.
If he had not used his soul to develop the Thousand Forging Spirit, the soul's significance to this era would have been just an additional form of soul ring.
After all, the influence of souls on the soul master world needs to be accumulated. Only the evolution of ten thousand years from Douluo II to Douluo III can improve the entire soul master world, rather than the benefits that can be obtained as soon as the souls appear.
In order to obtain a soul, can you have an extra fighting partner, and then go to a dangerous place like the Star Dou Great Forest to persuade a soul?
Quite interesting.
Soul spirits aren't some particularly extraordinary technology, so why can't they be passed on to others?
Besides, Su Ming was not trying to sell anything. He simply let the soul appear. You could find out what incredible advantages the soul had after you obtained it.
Now all Ning Fengzhi knows is his disadvantages.
"Of course, it's my patent after all." Su Ming met Ning Fengzhi's gaze and said, "Before I determine what I need, let me give you a heads-up. Although the soul contract can be semi-enforced, it is only limited to thousand-year soul beasts, and the soul-infusing technology requires the full cooperation of the soul."
"Soul spirits can assist soul masters, but their capabilities depend on the soul master. There's also the risk of them turning against the soul master, such as retaliating by disintegrating the soul ring. It's even possible for them to prevent the soul master from using the soul skills of the soul ring they bestowed upon him during battle."
"Soul transformation is not difficult, the difficult part is finding a soul that can cooperate with forging." Su Ming said.
Ning Fengzhi narrowed his eyes slightly.
"That's not difficult."
Taming animals.
The Seven Treasures Glazed Clan is a large and powerful family, and it also has such a small department, which contains several tamed thousand-year-old soul beasts.
"By the way, infusing souls is not just a test for the blacksmith, but also a test for the soul. This also requires talent. Without talent, even if you try for years or even decades, you may not be able to find the feeling of infusing souls."
Hearing Su Ming say this, Xiao Jin beside him became excited.
See, Xiongxiong is the talented one.
And he has such exaggerated talent that he succeeded in one try!
Ning Fengzhi's expression changed slightly.
This made him feel troubled.
However, the difficulty is his own problem, and it can be solved.
He looked at Su Ming and said bluntly, "From what I can tell, the soul contract is the key, followed by the soul-infusing technique. Therefore, this second form of cooperation can be seen as a transaction between these two parties."
"Yes, Uncle Ning." Su Ming nodded and said, "I don't need anything else. First of all, in our transactions today and in the future, I hope that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect will use rare metals to settle, and at the current market price."
"Okay." Ning Fengzhi didn't hesitate.
"Also, I need to borrow your sect's Sword Douluo."
Borrowing a Titled Douluo?
Ning Fengzhi looked puzzled.
"My teacher's eighth ring needs to absorb souls. He has been looking for it for a long time but can't find any special soul beasts. So all I can think of so far is to defeat it first." Su Ming said.
Zhu Jiuyang has been looking for the soul ring for a long time, but still hasn't found it.
Su Ming could only share his teacher's worries.
A glimmer of light flashed in Ning Fengzhi's eyes.
Zhu Jiuyang actually figured out how to get his eighth soul ring on his own without asking the Spirit Hall for help.
In this case, having Jian Douluo accompany and help hunt souls is definitely a good opportunity to win him over.
"Can!"
He agreed without any hesitation, looked at Su Ming, and waited for Su Ming's next request.
"The new forging system will undoubtedly reshape the status of blacksmiths in the future. Rare metals will no longer be useless, and their prices are bound to rise. Given the size of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Uncle Ning will definitely buy up a large amount of rare metals before the prices go up when he returns this time, right?"
Ning Fengzhi nodded, not hiding this idea.
really.
Since they know that this thing will be valuable in the future, they will definitely buy it first.
All businessmen will do this.
"I want 10% of all the metals that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect acquires in the next ten years." Su Ming said.
"Boy, aren't you afraid of eating too much?" Gu Rong couldn't help but say.
The first two requests were not a big deal, but this one was outrageous.
"I think the price of rare metals has at least doubled. Uncle Ning, if you guys buy the rare metals ahead of time because of the information I have, your profits will be quite high. I only need 10% of the metals, but even so, you'll still make at least 80% of the profit."
"Can."
Ning Fengzhi agreed.
He could see that Su Ming was confusing concepts.
Only talk about profits, not about efforts.
The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is so big and has such a wide network of contacts. How terrifying is the amount of metal it has acquired?
"Kid, is that enough? Three conditions." Gu Rong couldn't help but say.
"Don't be impatient, senior. After all, this involves the key technology of Qianduan Spiritual Forging. Being able to forge yourself and hiring someone else to do it are two different things." Su Ming smiled and said, "My fourth request is not difficult either. I just need the forgers you will train in the future, Uncle Ning, to join the Blacksmith Association. The learning and training process will also be carried out in the association. The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect recognizes the association's authority in the forging world. Of course, it's still called the Blacksmith Association for now, and it may be renamed the Blacksmith Association in a while."
Ning Fengzhi understood.
Sure enough, this is poised to change the working environment of blacksmiths.
Nowadays, blacksmiths are looked down upon and are considered to be at the bottom of society. Su Ming is planning to use the Thousand Forged Metals to change the status of blacksmiths.
Blacksmith
This is very clever.
Soul masters work as blacksmiths, while ordinary people work as blacksmiths.
This is the first impression.
In fact, only the core abilities of a blacksmith require the abilities of a soul master. Ordinary people can still perform some simple forging tasks, and they will continue to be graded within the association.
There is no distinction between groups in reality, but it directly causes people's senses to change drastically.
"Yes, I can also promise you that the sect and the Blacksmith Association will sign a cooperation agreement to help each other."
Su Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's all for now."
Ning Fengzhi also breathed a sigh of relief.
The boy finally finished.
What surprised him was that Su Ming never mentioned using soul bones for trading from beginning to end.
But at the same time, he also knew that what Su Ming obtained was definitely of great value, especially the 10% of rare metals obtained in the past ten years.
This move is too cruel.
Even if he took away 10%, it would not affect the high profits of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. It would be like getting something for nothing, and directly obtaining 10% of the metal. If it were not for the ten-year restriction, Ning Fengzhi would never agree to it.
"That's all for the deal, but Uncle Ning, you guys can't fulfill many of the conditions right now, so I can't hand over the soul transformation array for the time being."
"You kid, are you going to give it to us ten years later?" Gu Rong said dissatisfiedly.
"Actually, it's not that easy to train a master-level blacksmith." Su Ming said, "Even if I give it to you ten years later, you won't lose out. Of course, if the blacksmith trained by the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect reaches the stage where he needs to absorb a spirit ring, I will hand over the spirit formation at that time. Before that, Uncle Ning, you just need to complete the other conditions."
Seeing Su Ming say this, Gu Rong no longer refuted.
"Cooperation with the Blacksmith Association." Ning Fengzhi looked at Su Ming and said hesitantly, "Do you want to decide now?"
"Wait a little longer. Uncle Ning, you guys go back first, and then send someone to contact us." Su Ming said with a wry smile.
He himself hasn't discussed it with the Blacksmiths Association yet.
"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."
Ning Fengzhi took out a jade pendant and handed it to Su Ming, saying that it was his token of trust and that he would use it as proof when contacting him.
After Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong left, Su Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
Next to him, Xiao Jin also collapsed on the ground.
"Roar." (What a terrifying soul power.)
"It's okay, he's just playing the villain to scare us." Su Ming said, "Next, we have to talk to the association. I just don't know if the teacher received the letter."
His idea should be that Zhu Jiuyang absorbed the soul back, then mastered Qianduan Youling, and then started these plans.
But the fact is that Zhu Jiuyang had disappeared for four months and his soul had not been found yet, and Ning Fengzhi noticed the problem with the batch of armor so quickly, and acted decisively, and came to him in person so quickly.
