Other than the 100,000-year soul beasts that would inevitably produce Soul Bones, it was already not bad if ordinary soul beasts had a one in 10,000 chance of producing one.
A soul master could fuse at most six Soul Bones, including the skull, torso, and the four limbs. Until now, other than Liu Feng who had a right arm bone, no one else had any Soul Bones. It was simply because they were too precious. Lan Xuanyu didn't want to fuse ordinary Soul Bones either.
Mr Le smiled and shook his head. "No, you shouldn't be learning Soul Refinement right now. You have to go further on Spirit Refinement. Spirit Refining one type of metal is only the beginning. If you continue like this, Soul Refinement might be your end. Even if you can complete Divine Refinement in the future, it will only be an ordinary Divine Refinement. You won't be able to forge a truly powerful divine metal. What I want to teach you today is how to fuse various types of metals into one and preserve the characteristics of each metal. It might even be a sublimated forging method. Completing this Fuse Forging at the Spirit Refinement level is the most important thing you have to learn in forging."
"It will take a longer time and it will consume a lot of Spirit Forged metals, but with your current success rate, it should be enough. When you have your Two-Word Battle Armor, you will have to fuse a second type of metal into it. And the more types of metal you fuse with, the stronger your Battle Armor will be."
"Fuse Forging ?" Lan Xuanyu obviously knew what this was. He was no longer that ignorant youth who had just started forging. That's right! How could he have forgotten about Fuse Forging?
"Uncle Le, how many types of metals can one fuse into together?" Lan Xuanyu asked curiously.
Mr Le said, "From a purely forging perspective, seven types of metals seem to be the limit. But if one can reach another level and break away from the scope of ordinary forging and forge with Divine Sense, perhaps nine types are possible too. Nine is the extreme number, but the quality of the metals required would be extremely high. At the very least, I've never seen a metal that could be used as the eighth and ninth types. Or maybe, my train of thought isn't right, those shouldn't be ordinary metals."
Lan Xuanyu stared at Mr Le with his mouth agape because he had read the relevant ancient books and information. In his memory, anyone who could complete four types of alloy forging was already hailed as a god! But Uncle Le said that he could fuse seven types.
"Uncle Le, can you fuse seven types of metals?" Lan Xuanyu asked.
Mr Le smiled and said, "I haven't tried it in a long time. But if the metals are suitable, it should be fine. I seem to be very good at Fuse Forging. Although I don't remember it very clearly, it should be fine. Give me two types of metals, anything.""Alright." Lan Xuanyu quickly took out two metals and placed them in front of Mr Le.
Heavy Silver and Mithril, these two metals had similar characteristics.
Mr Le took the pair of forging hammers from Lan Xuanyu's hands. After pondering for a moment, he said, "It's time for your pair of forging hammers to evolve. I'll teach you Fuse Forging today, so I'll forge them for you again. Watch closely."
As he spoke, Mr Le didn't calcine the two metals. Instead, he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of golden flames. He merely swept it over the Heavy Silver and Mithril, and the two metals immediately turned red.
The two hammers struck down at the same time as fast as lightning. Lan Xuanyu watched carefully from the side. Even though Mr Le's movements were very fast, when the two hammers landed on the metal, Mr Le still appeared elegant and calm.
"Dang! Dang!" Two loud booms resounded. In the next moment, the two pieces of metal burst forth with a glaring light and each of them had a light that was over three meters in length.
One strike, Thousand Refinements!
At this moment, Lan Xuanyu felt all the hair on his body stand up and his eyes were completely blank.
‘What level of forging is this! Just a single strike and he actually completed the Thousand Refinements, and it clearly surpasses the standard of an ordinary first-grade Thousand Refinements!'
A faint dragon roar came from Mr Le's body as a layer of golden diamond-shaped scales appeared on the surface of his hands.
Seeing this scale, Lan Xuanyu was stunned. It was actually very similar to the scales on his right hand, but the scale on Mr Le's hand was clearly more solid and heavier. There was also a ferocious aura that naturally burst forth from his body, and it was many times stronger than Lan Xuanyu's aura.
This ferocious aura only lasted for a moment before Mr Le's hammers landed once again. With a low dragon roar, the two metals shook violently. A golden dragon appeared from each of them and that golden dragon drilled around in the metal.
The metal was shrinking rapidly, but the light on its body became brighter.
One strike to create life, Spirit Forging completed!
If anyone told Lan Xuanyu that someone could Thousand Refine in one strike and Spirit Refine in another, Lan Xuanyu would never believe it. Or if he told others, no one would believe him either.
However, the truth was right before their eyes. The Spirit Forging of the two metals was completed in such a short time.
Mr Le's wrists trembled slightly. It was different from the ferocious hammer from before. When the two metals were completed, the forging hammers in his hands had already turned illusory and he knocked them lightly.
The two metals immediately stuck together and a faint golden airflow circulated between them. One could see that the dragon-shaped shadows that were originally surrounding both sides of the metal actually began to fuse together, transforming into an even larger golden dragon. The two metals were fusing together under his continuous knocking.
The fusion was not just about the metals themselves, but also the life energy of these metals.
Lan Xuanyu held his breath. He knew that this was the process of Fuse Forging and what he wanted to learn was exactly this. He released his spiritual power and could clearly feel every detail of Mr Le's forging.
Very soon, he realized that the fusion of the metal itself wasn't a difficult task. With his years of forging experience, it was completely possible. The key was the fusion of the life aura between the metal and how to maintain the unification of their sentience during the fusion. The unification of the characteristics without losing them was the most important.
Mr Le's forging speed was very fast, but in Lan Xuanyu's spiritual world, everything seemed to have slowed down and every detail was deeply imprinted in his heart.
He knew that Uncle Le was teaching him through his spiritual power to him and quickly memorized it.
Finally, the two metals completely merged into one. Its luster suddenly changed and the entire metal became crystal clear with a transparent texture.
A small golden dragon circled around it and the energy fluctuation it emitted was clearly different.
The Fuse Forging was completed.
However, Mr Le didn't stop. The forging hammer in his hand left a series of afterimages as he continued to strike upwards. Not only that, two rays of light that were like cold lightning shot out from his eyes and shone on the metal.
Lan Xuanyu only felt that the Uncle Le in front of him suddenly became incomparably tall like a vast ocean, while his spiritual power, which had reached the Spirit Abyss realm, was only a drop in the vast ocean.
A large amount of spiritual power accompanied the forging and ferociously washed over that piece of metal. The life that was just created quickly grew and strengthened, gradually having its own undulations.
The dragon roar became more intense, and the entire metal responded to Mr Le's breathing. Every strike carried not strength but spiritual power.
This was Soul Forging!
Lan Xuanyu immediately understood what Uncle Le was doing. He was performing Soul Refinement! And it was Soul Refinement right after Fuse Forging.
That piece of alloy gradually turned soft, as though it had turned into liquid and was constantly changing forms to receive the hammer.
