White World, Spirit Hall, Supreme Pontiff Palace.
"You fool, what do you mean 'don't worry about him'? Send someone to follow up immediately!"
"That was the beginning of changing the continent's landscape. Originally, our Spirit Hall could have kept up with the progress!!"
Seeing his past self's indifferent look in the heavenly curtain, Qian Xunji roared directly at the heavenly curtain.
He knew, of course, that no matter how much he roared, he could no longer change the current outcome.
But he truly regretted it.
Back then, when Yu Xiaogang was just starting out, he had seen everything.
But what was the result?
He hadn't cared, viewing that Artificial Soul Bone as a mere trick or trivial toy, letting Yu Xiaogang research and develop it.
By the time he snapped out of it, Yu Xiaogang and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect had long since developed the Artificial Soul Bone.
Furthermore, they destroyed all their early products, making it impossible for latecomers like them to try and keep up by learning through imitating simple creations.
Because the creations they could get their hands on now had already evolved several times.
Without the preceding learning steps, they were forced to face the latest products directly.
It's just like monkeys living in a forest; if you have them learn nothing and then immediately put them in charge of a faction, expecting them to be flawless.
They can't do it; they simply can't do it.
At the same time, it was impossible for Qian Xunji to obtain it through force.
Because the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect was no longer the one he had once looked down upon.
So Qian Xunji could only vent his incompetent rage like this now.
Below, Dragon Scale Douluo and Iron Wall Douluo saw their Supreme Pontiff's breakdown and could only keep their eyes downcast and their thoughts to themselves.
They once also thought Yu Xiaogang was wasting his talent.
As Yu Yuanzhen's good brother, Dragon Scale Douluo had even taken the initiative to advise Yu Xiaogang not to focus on these useless things.
But what was the result?
A resounding slap to the face!
Now, in the entire Douluo Continent, who doesn't covet the things produced by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect?
One can only say, never judge a Genius through your own eyes.
Because you never know what kind of change a Genius, who seems to be neglecting their proper duties in your eyes, will bring to this World.
[The video continues...]
[Time flew by, and half a month passed. Today was the completion date the Blacksmith Shop had promised.]
[Early in the morning, Yu Xiaogang couldn't wait to head to the Blacksmith Shop to pick up the custom parts he had ordered.]
[Arriving at the Blacksmith Shop, the owner, who was also waiting for Yu Xiaogang, immediately greeted him with a smile upon seeing him.]
[Yu Xiaogang's order was the largest in nearly half a year. The Blacksmith Shop Owner wished he could enshrine this God of Wealth who brought in money.]
["Young Master Xiaogang, look, we've used several different Materials to forge all the components you requested according to your instructions."]
[Led by the Blacksmith Shop Owner, Yu Xiaogang came to a table.]
[On the table were various parts forged from different metals.]
[It must be said that a Blacksmith Shop capable of establishing itself in a place like Spirit City still had some skill.]
[From Yu Xiaogang's perspective, these forged parts perfectly met his requirements.]
[And between different Materials, there was almost no difference in the size of the parts.]
["Very good! Thank you, boss. Here is the remaining payment."]
[Yu Xiaogang showed a satisfied expression and then pulled a bag of gold coins from his storage soul tool.]
[Taking the gold coins, the Blacksmith Shop Owner beamed with joy.]
[Half a month of hard work was all for this moment.]
["The amount is correct. Thank you for trusting our shop, Young Master Xiaogang. If you have similar work in the future, just give it to us. We guarantee we'll do even better than this time!"]
[The Blacksmith Shop Owner thumped his chest and guaranteed.]
["Alright, I'll come again if I need anything."]
[Nodding, Yu Xiaogang collected all the parts into his storage soul tool and left the Blacksmith Shop.]
[Before long, back at the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's station, he entered the laboratory. Yu Xiaogang hurriedly took out all the parts and began assembling the ones made of one type of metal.]
[The clanging sound of metal clashing rang out continuously. During this time, Lin Lang came to the laboratory, took a look at Yu Xiaogang's movements, and then stayed aside to wait quietly.]
[The assembly process was not short; during it, Yu Xiaogang still needed to make some special adjustments.]
[After all, he couldn't just hand over the complete blueprints to the Blacksmith Shop so bluntly.]
[Under Yu Xiaogang's operation, half a day quickly passed. When the last part was assembled, Yu Xiaogang wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a long breath.]
["Whew, it's finally finished."]
[Lin Lang leaned in from the side and looked over the iron lump in front of him.]
[Compared to the previous palm-sized Spirit Bone, this Artificial Soul Bone in front of him was significantly larger.]
[Its size was about as large as Yu Xiaogang's forearm.]
[Originally, Yu Xiaogang intended to make it the same size as that Spirit Bone, but the Blacksmith Shop said the parts were too delicate, and the time required would jump to about half a year.]
[Yu Xiaogang wasn't willing to wait half a year, so he enlarged it to its current state.]
["Young Sect Master, can this thing really release Spirit Abilities like a Spirit Bone?"]
[To be honest, even after witnessing his Young Sect Master successfully use a Spirit Bone's skill through some simple devices, he still couldn't accept that a lump of iron could use a Spirit Ability.]
[A Spirit Bone and a pile of metal—the difference was just too great.]
["Actually, I'm not sure if it will work either."]
["But I think there's a high possibility."]
["Uncle Lin, you've also absorbed a Spirit Bone, so you should know that a Spirit Bone is something you input Soul Power into, and then it outputs a Spirit Ability."]
["Being able to achieve this effect proves that a Spirit Bone is actually a type of Soul Power conversion device."]
["The Soul Power flowing into the Spirit Bone is converted by the Spirit Bone into a Spirit Ability."]
["In that case, we learn the method by which a Spirit Bone converts Soul Power, and then use different conversion devices to convert Soul Power in the same way."]
["Both involve inputting Soul Power, converting it, and outputting a Spirit Ability."]
["Since we can do the same things with this iron lump as with a Spirit Bone, there's no reason we can't use it to perform the same Spirit Bone Skill."]
[Yu Xiaogang picked up the Artificial Soul Bone in his hand.]
[Success or failure depended on this.]
[Yu Xiaogang followed the method he used with that Spirit Bone before, connecting the wiring for the Artificial Soul Bone he had created.]
[Putting on gloves, he held the metal ball with his other hand and began to input Soul Power.]
[The metal ball and wire of the input section turned red one after another. Yu Xiaogang and Lin Lang stared intently at the Artificial Soul Bone part.]
[Under their gaze, the Artificial Soul Bone also underwent a change and began to emit light.]
["This, this is..."]
[Lin Lang was so excited he almost jumped. The previous Spirit Bone had changed like this too; could it be they actually succeeded?]
[Yu Xiaogang was equally excited. He stared at the output section without blinking; this was the key to determining success or failure.]
[Soon, the Soul Power completed its transformation within the Artificial Soul Bone, and the wiring of the output section began to turn red.]
[The glove immediately received the Soul Power.]
[Taking a deep breath, just like his first attempt, Yu Xiaogang used Soul Power to turn on the switch of the output section.]
[Whoosh!]
[With a muffled sound, an orange-red fireball appeared on Yu Xiaogang's palm like a sun.]
[Artificial Soul Bone, success!]}],
