As long as I am always a desperate soldier, and as long as I have a breath left, I will b

As the forging continued, the size of the piece of silver decreased, and its silvery luster dimmed.

However, the shape of the life force contained within the sunken silver suddenly changed slightly.

The shape of the rhombus fragment is still there, but it seems to have been deliberately left empty.

Although Gu Lie felt a little disappointed, he was mostly relieved.

If those precious items that can turn the tide of battle could be so easily crafted by hand, then such thinking would be far too arrogant.

A person with high emotional intelligence says: Underestimating the enemy is the most dangerous military tactic in the world.

Low emotional intelligence: Pride comes before a fall.

Gu Lie remembered very clearly that Tang Hao and Ah Yin were lurking somewhere in this world, where no one could detect them, ready to deliver a blow to the Abyss Emperor, the biggest victim of the millennium plan.

Now that he had decided to deal with Tang Wulin, he certainly couldn't let those two guys get away with it.

Those were genuine god-level powerhouses, not comparable to those powerhouses who were currently restricted and could only temporarily break through to higher levels.

As long as he never forgets this matter, Gu Lie can quickly put himself into a state of desperate fighting, and as everyone knows, a desperate army is bound to win.

Or rather, as long as the desperate army still has a breath left, it will be invincible.

After adjusting his mindset, Gu Lie once again fine-tuned his forging rhythm and soul power output.

Sweat poured from his body, gradually soaking his clothes.

"This is... the final blow."

As Gu Lie finished speaking, he struck the two sides of the piece of silver with his two forging hammers simultaneously, and then the hammers fell naturally from his hands and onto the ground.

Gu Lie then waved his hands in a sweeping motion, as if he were a conductor, grabbing at the air and striking a pose of cessation.

At the same time, a seven-colored beam of light shot into the sky, reaching a height of five zhang (approximately 10 meters).

A deep, majestic murmur filled the forging room; though not the roar of a dragon or the cry of a phoenix, it was far more solemn than any of those sounds.

The dazzling, colorful light, combined with the rich energy fluctuations, gave everyone present a wonderful feeling.

"It's actually spirit forging... and not even the traditional myriad-forged life form. This clearly awakens life deep within the metal!"

Zhenhua took a few steps forward, observing Gu Lie's work with an expression of great joy.

Leng Yaozhu swiftly approached Gu Lie and carefully examined his current physical condition.

"Teacher, it's okay. I feel better than ever before!"

Seeing that his teacher even wanted to activate the Martial Soul Fusion to accelerate his soul power recovery, Gu Lie could only smile and decline.

Throwing away the forging hammer at the end of the forging process was just a whim of his to do something a little awkward and thicken his skin.

After all, if we actually manage to get our hands on a Z Crystal in the future, the awkward dance and chanting before using the corresponding move will be an essential part of the process.

Although Ancient Hunters will likely continue to use the Dragon-type "Ultimate Dragon Shakes the Sky" and the Ground-type "Earth Rumbles the Sky" in the future, their preparation animations are not that awkward. But what if you have to use a specific type of skill?

If you're too shy to complete the preparations and end up feeling embarrassed, that would be incredibly unfortunate.

"If you can't even hold a forging hammer, how can you be considered good?"

Although Leng Yaozhu had confirmed that Gu Lie's body was not in any unexpected condition, she still complained with dissatisfaction.

God knows how worried she was when she saw Gu Lie loosen the hammer.

"Ancient Hunter, would you be willing to become my apprentice and join the Blacksmith Association?"

"I can directly grant you the badge of a Level 5 Blacksmith, and..."

After observing Gu Lie's finished spirit forging for a while, Zhen Hua looked into Gu Lie's eyes with a burning gaze. Although it was a bit more restrained than Mu Ye's previous gaze, one could still feel the fervor in it.

Although theoretically, as a master craftsman, he should have been the more proactive party in today's meeting, Zhenhua now felt that the balance of power had shifted.

If I hadn't been able to take on such a talented disciple, and instead my junior brother, who's a winner in life, had, he would definitely have sent me harassing messages every day, bragging about having taken on a genius disciple.

Zhenhua wouldn't be so flamboyant. At most, he would simply retaliate when that unlucky junior brother thought he had gotten lucky and took on a good disciple, or when the junior brother used his status as a winner in life to mock him.

So he quickly introduced the benefits of the Blacksmith Association to Gu Lie, and he didn't make up any nonsense, such as what a dean of Shrek Academy said ten thousand years ago: "The academy guarantees to provide a 100,000-year soul ring and a 100,000-year soul bone."

Gu Lie agreed without hesitation.

With Leng Yaozhu around, Gu Lie believed that Zhenhua wouldn't dare to cheat him. Moreover, based on the way Zhenhua looked at his finished spirit forging product just now, Gu Lie could also judge that, at least in forging, Zhenhua was a very pure person.

Hmm. Being forced to be pure the day after tomorrow can also be considered pure.

Just then, Makino, who had changed into a chef's uniform, respectfully entered the forging room.

After being reminded by Zhenhua, Mu Ye went to the kitchen to calm down for a while and figured things out. He also realized how out of control he had been.

"Sigh... Forget it. The Body Sect has already declined to such a state that it can't even keep a single Super Douluo. If I still cling to some meaningless rules, I'll most likely just drown along with the Body Sect."

"Aruheng is indeed talented, but he is not a sect leader who can lead the Body Sect to greatness. If we can establish a de facto master-disciple relationship between the Body Sect and the Spirit Pagoda, it would surely be a good thing for the Body Sect."

With that in mind, Makino decided to go all out and, gritting her teeth, took out a lot of ingredients that she usually wouldn't take out from where she stored them, and began to cook with extra care.

Before long, the group sat around the dining table, looking at the dazzling array of dishes, each with a different expression.

"Brother, you have so many good things, you usually wouldn't take them out, why are you showing them all now?"

"Hmph, this was prepared for Her Majesty the Heavenly Phoenix and her two esteemed disciples. You only got this by benefiting from their generosity. Besides, you usually don't eat enough."

Faced with Zhenhua's teasing, Mu Ye snorted and ignored him, then turned around and cleanly peeled several red jade shrimp for Gu Lie and the others.

"It's actually Red Jade Shrimp? Thank you for your help, Sect Master Mu."

Leng Yaozhu was naturally a discerning person. Seeing that Mu Ye had actually brought out eight red jade shrimp this time, and that Gu Lie and Na'er were already enjoying them, she simply thanked him and picked up one to savor it carefully.
