Chapter 825: Heritage! Inheritance! Innate Artifact Soul!
Just as Chu Feng was planning to continue working on the deerskin soft armor until it was forged into Divine Lord level equipment, he suddenly discovered that the phantom opposite him looked at him as if it was looking at a fool.
Although he could not see the expression of the phantom clearly, Chu Feng was certain that the other party was looking at a fool!
Hey! I have a bad temper!
“Ahem, Senior… What can I do for you?”
Chu Feng cowered again.
The accomplished were the masters, and the masters should be respected. This was the most basic etiquette for a student.
The phantom still did not speak, but it silently put away the deerskin soft armor in its hand and actually began the next stage of teaching.
Chu Feng looked at the phantom and then at the deerskin soft armor in his hand.
“Don’t tell me that as long as I present a finished product, I pa.s.s?”
It seemed… most likely so!
Of course!
If he was asked to use ordinary divine-grade materials to forge a Divine Lord level weapon, that would be challenging!
It was much harder than forging a Divine Lord weapon with Divine Lord materials!
No wonder he looked at me like I was a fool.
Chu Feng coughed awkwardly.
Actually, what Chu Feng did not know was that if he could reach the level of the phantom who crafted a great weapon with lesser materials, he would probably be only one step away from becoming a Divine Blacksmith…
The imitation continued.
From this day onwards, Chu Feng truly began his apprenticeship.
He did whatever the phantom did.
He was not anxious and imitated bit by bit. Even if he failed again and again, he did not take it to heart.
If the first time doesn’t work, I’ll do it twice or thrice. If the teacher isn’t anxious, why should I be?
Everything about the phantom was under Chu Feng’s observation.
Whether it was its movements or its aura, Chu Feng did not neglect at all.
Occasionally, the phantom would even demonstrate some top-notch techniques that could be considered divine skills!
Chu Feng naturally accepted them without hesitation!
In this era, such means could probably be called a miracle!
Chu Feng increasingly felt that the phantom in front of him was familiar.
He was really similar to Divine Blacksmith De Lu, whom he had once met…
However, the other party did not seem to know him.
This was normal.
Divine Blacksmith De Lu’s spiritual will had probably dissipated long ago. Even if there was another one here, it was an independent one left behind by the main body.
Of course, no matter what, realization dawned on Chu Feng.
Divine Blacksmith De Lu might be teaching him everything he had learned in this way.
This was much better than the ordinary inheritance that was only recorded in videos!
A true inheritance!
This was what a teacher should be like!
Chu Feng became even more excited. A true Divine Blacksmith as his master. This was what many blacksmiths dreamed of!
Such an opportunity could not be missed!
If he could become a Master Blacksmith in the future, this ident.i.ty might bring countless benefits to Earth!
Continue!
He did not dare to delay any longer.
Chu Feng threw himself into it again.
Time quietly slipped away under his concentration.
The path of forging was not that simple.
Every Master Blacksmith had spent a lot of time practicing before they succeeded!
Without enough time, no matter how talented he was, it would only be an illusion.
In the blink of an eye, another thousand years had pa.s.sed…
Chu Feng had already forged countless treasures.
Although they were all fake, the forging process had long been firmly branded in the depths of Chu Feng’s soul.
Practice makes perfect!
Just now, Chu Feng had forged another divine-grade long saber. However, he did not care and crushed it, scattering it into nothingness.
“Senior, what’s next?”
This had become a habit.
Every time he finished forging a treasure, the phantom would teach the next one.
Every time, the weapon Chu Feng forged was divine-grade!
However, the quality of the final product depended on his state. Sometimes, it was considered a treasure at the level of a Greater G.o.d, but sometimes, it was only at the level of a Lesser G.o.d.
The difference was also quite great.
However, as long as the product was completed, the phantom would consider that Chu Feng had pa.s.sed and begin the next stage of teaching.
However, this time, the phantom seemed to be different.
Its illusory eyes stared fixedly at Chu Feng, as if it wanted to brand Chu Feng’s appearance in its soul. It even made Chu Feng’s hair stand on end.
He could not help but say, “Senior, is there… anything else?”
There was still no response. Chu Feng was already used to it.
Could the clone left behind by Divine Blacksmith De Lu be a mute?
He could not be bothered to think further.
Because the phantom moved again.
However, this time, it continued to forge on the long saber it had just forged.
This scene stunned Chu Feng.
“d.a.m.n! You can’t do that. I crushed the finished product!”
After all, this session had not happened before!
However, the phantom ignored Chu Feng and continued to move.
Gradually, Chu Feng keenly discovered something different.
This time, he actually sensed the aura of the Artifact Soul on this Divine Lord level long saber…
His eyes widened in shock.
He exclaimed, “Soul forging out of thin air?!”
“How is that possible?!”
“Isn’t the Artifact Soul only refined from the remnant souls of living beings?”
Chu Feng muttered to himself.
Generally speaking, weapons did not have Artifact Souls!
Unless it was the kind of lucky Divine Weapon that automatically carried the Artifact Soul as soon as it was born!
However, such a chance was one in a billion!
A blacksmith might not even encounter one in his life!
Other than that, to give the weapon a soul, the only way was external help!
Hunting powerful creatures and injecting their remnant souls into divine weapons!
This method was extremely difficult!
And it was also atrocious!
Ordinary armor was not worth doing this.
Only those precious and powerful divine weapons were worth it.
The blacksmith or their master would spend so much effort to find a soul for them!
Whether it was choosing a target or hunting it, every step was extremely difficult before tempering the soul in the end!
If they were not careful, all their previous efforts would be in vain!
But even so, there were still countless warriors who were eager to try. They would give up all their wealth to attach a soul to their divine weapon!
After all, the difference between a divine weapon with and one without an Artifact Soul was simply too great!
Those with Artifact Souls could even instantly kill those of the same rank!
It was not impossible for them to defeat higher-level weapons!
For example, Chu Feng’s Demon Slayer didn’t have an Artifact Soul to begin with. It was the dragon soul awakened from the shattered Nine Dragons Saber that gave the Demon Slayer spirituality!
From then on, its power increased greatly!
Chu Feng’s method of obtaining it was considered gentle. However, most warriors obtained their Artifact Souls with blood!
Although the Artifact Soul gained from killing could greatly increase a warrior’s strength, the aftereffects were also very great!
One was that it could not perfectly unleash the power of a weapon!
After all, no one was willing to be the spirit of a weapon!
Resentment, indignation, and anger!
It would affect a warrior’s control of the divine weapon!
Furthermore, when the warrior was weak, the Artifact Soul might even betray its master!
Therefore, too many warriors dreamed of finding a divine weapon with a natural Artifact Soul!
The kind of soul that would not devour its master and could perfectly a.s.sist warriors!
If someone could make any divine weapon grow a soul out of thin air and let them fuse perfectly… countless experts in the world would go crazy!
Even if they had to sell everything, they would still attach a soul to their divine weapon!
In Chu Feng’s eyes, this seemed to be what this phantom was doing now!
