THE LEGEND OF THE DRAGON KING
chapter26.five hundred kilograms of power

The blacksmith's strength test was divided into left and right arms. Tang Wulin shocked Mang Tian the first time he took the test, as his left and right arms were extremely balanced. His right arm was only slightly stronger than his left.

Tang Wulin gripped the forging hammer in his left hand. The spiral pattern on the handle was dug in his soft hand and hard calluses. His grip became very strong.

He took a deep breath and twisted his body in the middle of the road. Then his arm suddenly swung the forging hammer with the force of his entire body condensing. At that moment when he fully exerted his strength, he felt a surge of warmth flowing from his tailbone. In an instant, this warmth spread throughout his spine. The hammer let out an ear-piercing whistle as he swung it, ruthlessly crushing the dishes.

Bang ~~~

The mercury on the inside of the pillar lifted quickly. A clear voice rang out in Tang Wulin and Mang Tian's ears, giving them a short period of tinnitus.

Mang Tian bent his eyes, as if to confirm that what he saw before him was the truth. At this time, the screen revealed the number.

An electronic voice coldly stated, “Surprising power, 483 kilograms.” Tang Wulin and Mang Tian could only stand there in shock from shock.

When he took the test the year before, Tang Wulin could already shock Mang Tian when his right arm exerted 200 kilograms of strength. But now, this number had already exceeded Brother Long who was an adult!

In one short year, his strength had increased dramatically again. Moreover, this was only his left arm .. A nine-year-old was actually able to exert nearly 500 kilograms of strength with one hand! This really should be an innate divine power!

Mang Tian did his best to control his emotions when he said, “Right arm.”

Tang Wulin turned the hammer to his right hand and once again took a deep breath. A flash of golden light appeared in the depths of his deepest eyes. He turned his body again, then swung his hand. Once again, a warm feeling began to flow into him from his spine. This time, the hammer howled in the air with greater ear-piercing ferocity, causing a series of explosions to be heard in the air.

Bang ~~~

The entire room trembled slightly under his power. This time, Mang Tian had to cover his ears to protect himself from ringing. The room continued to shake due to the impact.

“Surprising strength, 543 kilograms.” 543 kilograms? He has broken through 500 kilograms !?

Mang Tian was once again confused. Even though he had already guessed that the boy's strength had increased by a not small amount, he definitely didn't expect his strength to increase by that much.

At the age of nine, both of his hands had a combined strength of over a thousand kilograms. His existence could already be considered the property of a small monster. Even though this was merely an explosive force, this was still a power that could be used when forging. Even with the automatic reduction of the machine from the weight of the hammer, his arm could still reach a strength of around five hundred kilograms. Even a Grandmaster Soul power system would not always have such power! It was not until the rank of the Soul Elder that this type of strength could be seen.

He had this kind of innate divine power, but why was his martial soul Bluesilver Grass !? It should be a martial soul force type. If his martial soul was a hammer, then he would truly be a genius.

Tang Wulin was also shocked by his own strength. Even if he did not understand the meaning of 500 kilograms of strength, he still clearly understood just how terrifying this type of power was to someone who only had one soul ring. Few could compare to his strength even if they used soul skills.

“Teacher, bus-can I really learn Thousand Refinements?” He asked doubtfully.

Mang Tian woke up from a daze and nodded. “I didn't expect your strength to actually reach such a level. Let's go to your forging room. ”

“The so-called Thousand Refinements are not as simple as just pounding metal a thousand times. Conversely, metal impurities should be removed under continuous forging, thus increasing their density. Also, the most important effect of Thousand Refinements was refining. It could only be called Thousand Refinements if the metal was purified and enhanced. ”

“For example, there is tungsten steel in Thousand Refined Tungsten Hammer that you use. It was already extremely powerful, but after undergoing Thousand Refinements, its size had been reduced by a third while its strength had doubled! Another effect is that the weight increases by thirty percent. Compared to another piece of tungsten, only a qualitative change can add to its weight as well as its incredible strength.

“Tungsten steel refinement is one of the simplest refinement. Excellent Thousand Refinements can have even more unusual effects. The better the refinement effect, the higher the value of the Thousand Purified Metal. After reaching the level of Thousand Refinements, you should first have the metal undergo Thousand Refinements before you use any other techniques to form them. As a result, any value made with the Thousand Refined metal was a hundred times higher than that made from the Hundred Forged metal. Only after you achieve the skill of utilizing Thousand Refinements can you be considered a true blacksmith. ”

Tang Wulin did not know that for ninety percent of blacksmiths, the level Mang Tian spoke of was an unattainable dream.

Thousand Refinements required more than just strength; what really mattered was understanding. Especially in the sense of metal.

Tang Wulin had studied hard for three years. Only now, coupled with his innate divine power, did he finally have the qualifications to try Thousand Refinements.

“Teacher, what techniques are required when doing a Thousand Improvements?” Ask Tang Wulin.

Mang Tian shook his head. “There are no techniques I can teach you. The only thing I can say is that when you forge, you should treat the metal as if it were a living organism. You should think of ways to communicate with the metal while you forge. Only with perfect communication can you get his approval. Find the secret, the pulse. Thousand Refinements was also called Mind Forging. The style each blacksmith performed Thousand Refinements was different. They all have different characteristics. Use your heart to forge. Go and try to understand my words. ”

“Ya.” Tang Wulin nodded.

He originally thought that Mang Tian would at least give him a demonstration, but it seemed that his teacher had a completely different idea. Instead, he left Tang Wulin to study it himself.

After opening the forging table, he placed the Heavy Silver inside the forging table furnace and started heating it.

This piece of Heavy Silver was about 30 square centimeters. It was shining a soft silver light. When entering the forging furnace, Tang Wulin began to recall the introduction to the properties of Heavy Silver that Mang Tian had given him earlier.

Heavy Silver is an unusual metal that can only be found on the ocean floor at depths exceeding one kilometer. It was extremely hard and had incredible tenacity under high temperatures, it was also an excellent conductor of soul force. In fact, it was so good that it could strengthen his soul force and give him a boost of five to ten percent.

Whether it is used for industrial purposes or for manufacturing mechanisms, it is still an excellent metal that is hard to come by.

Even so, Heavy Silver was not without its own flaws. It was too dense, giving it an incredible weight. For example, this piece of Heavy Silver that was less than a third of a meter long was over 200 kilograms. In fact, the odds are close to 300 kilograms!

As a result, even if Heavy Silver was overproduced, it would still be impossible to use it in large-scale mecha manufacturing. Its weight also limits its application in the manufacture of mecha. It was much more prevalent in large solid soul devices.

Heavy Silver is rarely found in cities located further inland. It is even more common in seaside towns and acts as an important source of income for these seaside towns.

His teacher had given him a piece of Heavy Silver. After checking, it looks perfect. The color is very flat, signifying that it has been purified before. Lastly, it feels heavier than usual.

The Silver Weight was hard, but it still softened under the heat of the furnace, becoming much more tenacious. Only when Heavy Silver was in this condition was it suitable for forging.
