Shaking his head inwardly, Zhen Hua quickly put aside his complex thoughts. His tone became serious.
"This new forging method allows the metal to gradually adapt to the power of heaven and earth before Heaven Forging, absorbing more of that power during Heaven Forging, further improving the metal's quality and the success rate of Heaven Forging. That's the benefit."
"But!"
Hearing the word "but," both Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena looked up at Zhen Hua.
In the field of metal forging, Zhen Hua was undoubtedly the most authoritative voice. Hearing his judgment on this new method would be very beneficial for their subsequent development.
Zhen Hua said: "Too much is as bad as too little. Once you come into contact with the laws of heaven and earth, if you continue using this forging method, the metal will face the thunder tribulation prematurely. At that point — forget Thousand-Forging — you might not even be able to complete Hundred-Forging."
"If you break through to Title Douluo and begin comprehending the power of laws, be sure not to integrate your comprehension of laws into the metal at the very beginning. As long as you avoid this in the early stages, preventing the metal from facing the thunder tribulation as a result, your success rate for Heaven Forging at the later stage will absolutely be higher than mine!"
Gu Yuena blinked and transmitted to Huo Yuhao: "Yuhao, what if I can control the elemental thunder tribulation, imprinting the laws into the metal bit by bit starting from Hundred-Forging? What would the forged metal be like?"
"It would be even stronger than ordinary Heaven Forge Metal."
Huo Yuhao answered. "Hundred-Forging, Thousand-Forging, Spirit Forging, Soul Forging, Heaven Forging — this is a process of the metal's growth. A tall building rises from the ground. If the foundation is stronger than that of other metals, the final final product will naturally be stronger too."
Gu Yuena's eyes lit up. "Then, if we also add your technology — entrusting me with forging a top-grade alloy with one hundred percent — would the Heaven Forge Metal far surpass his Heaven Forge Metal? Battle Armor made from that kind of metal would surpass Four-Word Battle Armor, wouldn't it?"
"...That's just theory. It would take time to implement it."
Seeing that Zhen Hua was still going on at length, passionately elaborating with his vast theoretical knowledge, Huo Yuhao gave a light cough."He's thinking of taking you on as a disciple. Think it over for yourself."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena looked up at Zhen Hua, paused for a moment, then said:
"I would like to observe your Heaven Forging process."
This meant that she was willing to learn.
Getting this answer before even asking, Zhen Hua's expression froze, then he was overjoyed. "Good! When I forge the Eternal Jade Silver later, you can all come and observe."
With that, he led the way out of the forging room, looking impatiently.
But Zhen Hua's good mood soon disappeared.
When they arrived at the office door, Dark Phoenix Douluo was already waiting there. Not only her, but also another middle-aged man.
"Chef, what are you doing here?" Seeing the middle-aged man, who fixed his gaze on Huo Yuhao as soon as they arrived, Zhen Hua had a bad feeling. "Don't do anything rash. Tower Master Snow Empress is here."
The middle-aged man's brow furrowed deeply. He looked at Snow Empress standing quietly to the side and Dark Phoenix Douluo, who was subtly raising her aura. His heart sank.
So why did it have to be the Spirit Transmission Tower?
If it were a Shrek Academy student, he might even dare to fight for them. But with a core disciple of the Spirit Transmission Tower right before him, unable to take them in... what a pity.
Seeing the middle-aged man calm down, Zhen Hua sighed in relief. He nodded to everyone. "Sorry to dampen your spirits. The place for Heaven Forging is the Heaven Ascension Platform. Please follow me."
He evasively changed the subject. No one minded, and they followed him.
But Huo Yuhao, walking at the back, lingered as he was about to pass the middle-aged man, drawing everyone's attention back.
Hearing the nickname "Chef," Huo Yuhao had a guess about the middle-aged man's identity. He smiled at everyone. "This senior seems to want to communicate with me. I'll stay here."
Snow Empress's delicate brows furrowed slightly. She transmitted: "Any problem?"
Huo Yuhao: "He is the Body Sect's Sect Master — Mu Ye!"
Snow Empress instantly understood his intention. She said no more. She smiled at the somewhat worried Zhen Hua. "Since Yuhao wants to stay here, let it be. We will go ahead. Your Majesty Zhen Hua — setting aside sect prejudices is truly admirable. We will observe the Heaven Forging scene."
"Well... if that's the case." Zhen Hua glanced at Mu Ye, transmitted a reminder, then headed to the Heaven Ascension Platform.
Gu Yuena exchanged a glance with Huo Yuhao and followed.
A few seconds later, only Huo Yuhao and Mu Ye remained. The latter had been savoring Snow Empress's last words, his brow furrowed tightly.
Zhen Hua was going to teach a Spirit Transmission Tower member Heaven Forging?
Setting aside sect prejudices? Had that Tower Master Snow Empress guessed his identity and intentions and was deliberately hinting at him?
Huo Yuhao also inwardly marveled at Snow Empress's delicate and delicate thoughts.
With one sentence, Snow Empress had understood his intention and made a response.
A true friend is hard to find in a thousand lifetimes.
And he already had one — right by his side...
Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and looked at Mu Ye. "Senior, you were staring at me just now. Do you have something urgent to discuss with me?"
Although the Body Sect had declined, it still had many good things that could benefit him.
The method for martial soul's second awakening need not be mentioned. Besides that, what impressed Huo Yuhao the most was the Body Sect's Innate Secret Method.
Once the Innate Secret Method was completed, using one's own body as the martial soul every part of the body would become a weapon, like a Divine Artifact. That was the Body Sect's strongest ability, and the strongest body-training method in Douluo!
Even Tang Wulin, who had broken through the tenth level of the Golden Dragon King's seal, could not suppress A Ruheng purely with his physique and strength. In fact, he was suppressed by the latter, winning only by outsmarting him.
And the Innate Secret Method, when cultivated to its peak, was known as the Flawless Golden Body. At this stage, regardless of the Body Douluo's spirit power level, the path up to the quasi-divine level would be unimpeded, and they would reach it in a short time.
Flawless Golden Body — inevitably becomes a quasi-divine being!
And such a quasi-divine being had inexhaustible physical strength and immense energy. Even if facing two or three quasi-divine beings at once, they would be safe. After all, the physical strength of the Flawless Golden Body was enough to rival that of a true god — basically impossible to kill!
So the Body Sect's Innate Secret Method had another name — God-Making.
Yes — a very familiar term to Huo Yuhao.
Mu Ye snapped back to reality at Huo Yuhao's voice. He looked at Huo Yuhao, narrowed his eyes, and didn't speak.
And in the next instant, Mu Ye's aura suddenly changed, as if a dormant volcano had suddenly awakened. A suffocating spread from his entire body.
An ordinary spirit master, facing this aura, might have already used their martial soul to resist. But Huo Yuhao simply stood there calmly, like a rock in a rainstorm — unmoving.
"Good, good, good!"
Mu Ye's gaze grew even more excited. He further enhanced his spirit power pressure. But Huo Yuhao still didn't use his martial soul. Mu Ye's excited expression gradually took on a hint of surprise.
Almost at the Soul Emperor level of pressure — and he still wasn't using spirit power to resist — could this child's physical strength be even higher than a Soul King's?
