Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: I, Huo Yuhao, join the Sun Moon Sect.

Chapter 253 Forging Techniques of Later Generations

As the number one Soul Master of the Sun Moon Empire, Kong Deming naturally possessed many methods for purifying rare metals.

Therefore, faced with this unfamiliar Ice Extreme Divine Crystal, he naturally took out a furnace with mysterious patterns from his storage soul tool.

This is a specially made level nine soul tool, specifically designed to purify rare metals. Compared to the Conferred God Platform, which is specifically used to capture transformed soul beasts, it has a much wider range of applications.

Of course, if you want to purify a large amount of rare metals, you will need some extremely large purification soul tools.

The furnace was quite large; when Kong Deming placed it on the lab table, it took up almost a third of the table's space.

Kong Deming opened the furnace lid, then put some of the Ice Extreme God Crystals from the lab table into the furnace, and began to infuse it with soul power. Soon, white flames began to rise in the furnace, and then Kong Deming closed the lid.

Kong Deming looked at the silvery patterns on the outside of the furnace, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Alright, we can start the furnace soon and see how pure the Ice Extreme Divine Crystal can be. This rare metal is truly unheard of."

In my memory, aside from the Ice Extreme Divine Crystal, it seems only Yuhao's Life Guardian Blade possesses vitality. I hope it can be purified as soon as possible and then used to create a humanoid soul tool for Yuhao, this great contributor.

Xuan Ziwen, who was standing to the side, said, "Elder Kong, it's too difficult to purify this kind of thing. I feel it's hard to purify it in a short time. I've spent many days and still haven't been able to purify the Ice Extreme Divine Crystal."

Kong Deming said confidently, "Don't worry, all the materials I use to make level 10 soul tools are purified using this furnace. After all, during the process of turning the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield into my natal soul tool, I need to add some special materials to improve the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield."

I admit that the Ice Extreme Divine Crystal is an extremely rare metal, but in the world of Soul Masters, there is no metal that cannot be purified.

Now that he has become an unprecedented level 10 Soul Master, he is bursting with confidence. After all, since the profession of Soul Master appeared, there has never been a level 10 Soul Master.

Upon hearing this, Xuan Ziwen's face showed a thoughtful expression. He thought to himself, "My teacher has now become a level ten Soul Master. Purifying an Ice Extreme God Crystal shouldn't be a big problem, right?"
A moment later, Kong Deming saw that the patterns on the furnace gradually stopped emitting light, and a chill emanated from the furnace. He immediately opened the furnace and eagerly investigated the situation. What came into view was a pile of ice crystals that had melted and then solidified again.

Near these Ice Extreme Crystals, there are very few black impurities.

"The purification was successful, but the efficiency was too low."

Kong Deming's face was grim. He picked up a piece of Ice Extreme Divine Crystal and began to infuse it with soul power, but immediately felt a bit sluggish.

"At this efficiency, it would take a lot of time to purify, and it might not even be able to achieve a near-perfect result."

"One reason is technical, and the other is that the Ice Extreme Crystal is of the ultimate ice attribute, making it quite troublesome to handle."

His standards for perfection are naturally quite high, and the reason for purifying rare metals in the production of soul tools is mainly to improve the efficiency of soul power transmission.

Generally speaking, the higher the purity of a rare metal, the more efficient it is at transmitting soul power. This is one of the important reasons why soul masters purify rare metals.

Therefore, Kong Deming hoped to use the Ice Extreme Divine Crystal as raw material to create a level 10 humanoid soul tool for Huo Yuhao. After all, Huo Yuhao had made a huge contribution to the Sun Moon Empire, and he would inevitably become a pillar of the Sun Moon Empire in the future. As for the threshold for using a level 10 soul tool, there were ways to lower it. Although Jing Hongchen's Red Dust Protection was only a level 9 soul tool, it had no usage threshold.

"Teacher, is there really no other way?" Xuan Ziwen was somewhat unwilling. His teacher was already a level 10 Soul Master, and even he couldn't find a way to quickly purify and purify the Ice Extreme God Crystal with high quality?
Kong Deming looked at the Ice Extreme Divine Crystal in front of him and said, "There is no better way at the moment. We can only use time to grind it down. I think it should be no problem to make a level nine soul tool using the Ice Extreme Divine Crystal as raw material, but it would be too difficult to make a level ten soul tool."

"However, I will try to study how to remove more impurities in order to improve the purity of the Ice Extreme Crystal."

"By the way, I don't know if Yuhao has come back yet. Go and find Yuhao. He has the Ultimate Ice Martial Soul and the Spirit Detection Sharing Soul Skill, which is actually very suitable for helping us purify the Ice Extreme God Crystal."

After hearing these words, Xuan Ziwen hesitated and said, "Teacher, has Yuhao come back now? I feel like I might not be able to find him if I go looking for him."

He has been staying in the lab these days, so he is in a state of "being oblivious to what is happening outside" and doesn't know much about the outside world.

Kong Deming patiently explained, "Yuhao has already returned. Perhaps he is in seclusion cultivating, which is why he didn't come to find you immediately."

Xuan Ziwen nodded: "Okay, then I'll go find Yuhao now."

Then Xuan Ziwen turned and left. After a while, Xuan Ziwen brought Huo Yuhao to the laboratory.

"Yuhao, you're here. We've run into some problems." Kong Deming quickly explained the issues to Huo Yuhao, and as he spoke, the helplessness on his face grew stronger.

Huo Yuhao looked at Kong Deming and thought that in the original story, it was Xuan Ziwen and Huo Yuhao who worked together to create the Ice Extreme War God Armor. But now that Kong Deming was helping, the upper limit of this Ice Extreme War God Armor should be raised a lot.

The Ice Extreme War God Armor can actually enhance combat power; even when Huo Gua challenged Di Tian, ​​he wore a full set of Ice Extreme War God Armor.

Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao said, "Elder Kong, I do have a good way to purify the Ice Extreme Divine Crystal. This method is called forging!"

"Forging?" Kong Deming asked, somewhat puzzled.

In fact, forging is already an obsolete technology in the Sun Moon Empire. He admitted that forging does have a purification effect, but the purification effect is too poor and it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, so most Soul Masters are unwilling to forge rare metals.

Only places like Shrek Academy would have the phenomenon of forging soul tools. However, in Kong Deming's view, this phenomenon was undoubtedly a sign of backwardness, because forging did not have any obvious benefits for making soul tools. He even suspected that the soul tool masters at Shrek Academy did this in order to pay tribute to Tang San.

Huo Yuhao said, "Yes, forging. I know you may not understand forging, after all, it is a relatively outdated technology."

But the forging I'm talking about is slightly different from what you think of forging. The forging I'm referring to can play a significant role in creating soul tools.
