Chapter 46: Replacing Soul with Qi
Soul power was continuously transmitted and injected into the ice crystals through hammering. Gu You's mental power was running violently, but the ice crystals were like a bottomless pit, constantly devouring his soul power and mental power, making it impossible to make ends meet.
He must succeed, and he must succeed brilliantly, so as not to waste his three years of hard study.
Three years of training and accumulation were all displayed at this moment. Under the influence of powerful thoughts, Gu You fully unleashed his potential.
At this moment, with his potential stimulated, every time he dropped the hammer and every time he communicated with the ice crystal was just right, causing the ice crystal to constantly undergo miraculous changes. As long as Gu You maintained communication with the ice crystal, these changes guided him to perform better.
When spiritual forging, the most feared thing is that the connection with the rare metal is severed, and the life construction is not sustained. Once that happens, the rare metal will instantly lose its spirituality and become an ordinary metal, not even a thousand-forged metal. This is why spiritual forging is so resource-consuming.
I don't know how many blacksmiths are stuck at the spiritual forging stage and cannot complete it in their entire lives. In addition to their own qualities, they just don't have enough money. The success rate of cultivating spiritual forgers in large families is higher because they have enough resources to smash and forge spiritual forging.
Gu You's speed was getting faster and faster. If he knew the Ghost Shadow Step, the process would be smoother. Unfortunately, he couldn't learn it.
The blue flame became stronger and stronger, and the size of the ice crystals became smaller and smaller. The spirit-forged life hammer in Gu You's hands was affected by the flame, and it also emitted a green light. There were also faint golden lines on it, which were the traces left by Gu You's blood sacrifice spirit-forged.
Over the years, he has been using this pair of life hammers for forging. He has no idea how many pieces he has forged and how much money he has earned.
At this moment, while they were knocking on the ice crystal, they also produced a wonderful communication with the ice crystal, and changed imperceptibly together with the ice crystal.
The soul power was consumed too quickly. After the spiritual forging began, only ten minutes later, Gu You's soul power was almost exhausted. Without soul power as a bridge, his spiritual forging could not continue. The previous communication was very smooth, but once the soul power was interrupted, the communication would be interrupted. In the event of spiritual forging failure, this ice crystal would become waste. At that time, it would already have a certain spirituality and would burst out with strong resentment, thereby backlashing against the blacksmith.
Even for a four-ring soul master, it would take a long time to recover after enduring such a backlash, not to mention that Gu Youcai was only a three-ring soul master. That might be a serious blow to him that could never be healed.
The soul power is almost exhausted, but the spiritual forging is not yet completed. This piece of sunken silver has begun to have the breath of life, just like a small life it has bred. It still needs more vitality to complete its own cycle and build its own life system.
How to do?
The role of the bottle is reflected.
A calm and huge soul power continuously replenished Gu You, allowing him to instantly recover to his peak soul power state.
"Wonderful~"
Zhenhua couldn't help but exclaimed, it is actually possible to do this, why didn't he think of using a bottle to replenish soul power before, it seems that his brain is not working well due to old age, his eyes looked at the special gourd-shaped soul guide bottle on Gu You's waist, he thought a lot in his mind, if this is the case, the forging world will surely be in turmoil, even if your soul power is low, you can still forge higher-level forgings.
Gu You made a bold decision. He suddenly switched the hammer to his left hand, held a pair of ice crystal hammers in his left hand and continued hammering, while his right hand pressed directly on the piece of heavy silver.
"Chi!" White smoke rose, and Gu You's palm trembled violently. It was extremely hot! If it was an ordinary person, just a touch of this would melt his body. But Gu You didn't. White smoke rose from his palm, and at the same time, a circle of purple-blue soul rings and purple scales appeared on his arm.
crazy!
Zhenhua was naturally curious about the origin of this special colored soul ring, but stopping the supply of bottle soul power now would be a complete mistake. What was this kid doing?
Zhenhua had a very high opinion of blacksmiths, but his understanding of the soul masters' martial soul bloodlines was very limited. He had only heard of the power of qi and blood, but had never actually seen it.
"Hah!" Gu You shouted loudly, his forehead already covered with sweat. The severe pain seemed to be forcibly suppressed by him with this shout.
The communication continued, but the soul power was replaced by his own blood power, and Gu You no longer used the bottle to supply it! !
He was testing his own Qi and blood power to see if it was strong enough. After the last battle, Gu You discovered that the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear's palm bone had completely reunited with his dragon claw. Now his right dragon claw should be renamed the Purple Emperor Terror Claw. At the same time, the destructive power of a single soul bone skill had become even stronger.
As he shouted, his upper body clothes suddenly exploded, revealing his strong body. Zhenhua could clearly see the fine purple diamond-shaped scales covering Gu You's right arm, spreading to his shoulder and right chest. All these scales were emitting brilliant light.
Purple-gold mist rose from the purple scales on Gu You's right hand, wrapping around the ice crystal. At the same time, he continued to move around the ice crystal, and the double hammers in his left hand kept hitting the sides of the ice crystal.
Feeling the majestic feeling of blood boiling in the air, Zhenhua indirectly confirmed that it was indeed the energy and blood power of the dragon bloodline. This was the first time he had seen it.
At the moment when the power of qi and blood replaced the soul power, Gu You clearly felt that the vitality of the ice crystal was about to collapse. At that moment, his heart was in his throat.
However, the moment he pressed his right hand on it, before the scales appeared, Gu You's blood began to flow out while burning. The strange thing was that this blood seemed to seal the vitality of the ice crystal, and managed to stabilize the vitality that was on the verge of collapse.
Gu You's blood and energy surged out, and the originally bright blue light of the ice crystal suddenly had a layer of light purple, and a faint golden hue.
Use qi and blood instead of soul power?
Zhenhua was completely stunned. Is this boy so bold?
Gu You's eyes lit up. It really worked. His energy and blood could really replace soul power for spiritual tempering. If he hadn't been unfamiliar with it and released the scales in advance during the previous conversion, the palm of his right hand would not even have been burned.
Qi and blood gushed out, and the powerful force of qi and blood made the blood in Gu You's body flow "gurglingly". Along with the infusion of qi and blood, the ice crystal began to change faster, and the Life Hammer in Gu You's hand hammered at an astonishing speed, but the strange thing was that when it hit the ice crystal again, the ice crystal actually showed a decomposition effect, and every time it hit, it seemed to stick to a part of the ice crystal and absorb into the Life Hammer.
