Douluo: Simplify Cultivation, Holy Angel

Chapter 155 Gengxin City

After absorbing the soul ring, Li Xuanji and Qian Renxue returned to Tiandou City.

Qian Renxue continued to pretend to be Prince Tiandou, while Li Xuanji quietly disappeared.

Star Luo Empire, Gengxin City.

Gengxin City is one of the main cities of the Star Luo Empire. There are a large number of high-quality iron ores nearby. It is the metal city of the Star Luo Empire and plays an important role in the entire Douluo Continent.

In fact, even the powerful combat power of the Star Luo Empire army is due to the equipment blessing of Gengxin City.

Although Douluo Continent is a world of soul masters, ordinary people who make up the majority of human beings are the most basic unit of soldiers in the army.

(Third Young Master said that a place like Gengxin City is not taken seriously, which is simply a lack of common sense. A thousand soldiers wearing armor can easily defeat 10,000 soldiers without armor. So, here are some modifications.)
Moreover, before Soul Master, the combat effectiveness of soul masters was not very strong. A team of well-equipped elite soldiers could easily kill a great soul master.

Just like Yu Xiaogang, the great soul master with level 29 soul power, what kind of fighting ability does he have?

Because there are a large number of iron mines near Gengxin City, there are a large number of blacksmith shops and a large number of blacksmiths in the city.

The salt and iron business is a hugely profitable industry in Douluo Continent. Although the miners responsible for mining and the blacksmiths responsible for forging iron were poor, the merchants who controlled the salt and iron trade were extremely wealthy.

The gates on three sides were opened simultaneously, and there was not even a guard. There was an endless stream of people coming and going, including merchants in luxurious clothes.

Walking in Gengxin City, Li Xuanji came to a tall building in the center of the city. Looking up, this huge building is at least thirty meters high and covers an extremely large area.

He passed through the third floor easily and came to the two guards on the fourth floor. The aura of his body enveloped the two guards. The two men trembled inwardly and looked at Li Xuanji with incomparable respect.

Both of them were soul saints, but they were like two little ants in front of Li Xuanji, and they couldn't help but salute respectfully.

Li Xuanji walked into the Blacksmiths Association and looked at it carefully. The trading area on the first floor is a fully open hall. Except for the huge pillars supporting the building, it is completely empty. Only some cabinets are placed near the outermost wall, and the cabinets contain various works cast by blacksmiths.

Li Xuanji took a quick look around, but didn't find anything good, so he walked directly to the fifth floor.

The senior in front of me is a titled Douluo!
"Senior, I am Sidi (Silong), a disciple of the master craftsman Lou Gao. I wonder what the purpose of this trip is for my senior?"

The second floor is the rare metal trading area, which may contain treasures such as vitality crystals.

Blacksmiths are simply divided into seven levels according to their forging level. From low to high, they are: junior blacksmith, intermediate blacksmith, senior blacksmith, master blacksmith, master blacksmith, master blacksmith and divine blacksmith.

There were much fewer people on the second floor, and there was a lot less noise than the first floor, but it was still relatively speaking. In fact, there are hundreds of shops on the second floor of the Blacksmiths Association, so the number of people is naturally even greater.

Occupying such a wide area in the city center shows the importance of the Blacksmiths Association in Gengxin City. Even if it can't compare to the City Lord's Mansion and Wuhun Palace, it's almost there.

The Blacksmith Association is divided into five floors. The first floor is the trading area. Some high-level blacksmiths will bring their works here to trade. Of course, there are also some merchants who sell metal ore. These blacksmiths are their biggest customers. .

Speaking of Lou Gao, according to the original trajectory, he would be plotted by Tang San and sacrifice his life to help Tang San create the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle.

The second floor is the high-end trading area, which deals with rare metals. The blacksmiths here are basically blacksmiths above the blacksmith level; the third floor is the area for blacksmith registration and assessment, which is responsible for the assessment of blacksmiths; the fourth floor is The VIP area is also the auction area, where some particularly precious castings are auctioned regularly; the fifth floor is the office of the Blacksmiths Association, where the master craftsman works.

He didn't need the blacksmith assessment on the third floor, and the auction on the fourth floor hadn't come yet, so the blacksmith's union was only worth a visit because it was only as high as the God's Craftsman Building.

A dark plaque hangs directly above the building. There are no words on it, only two raised images of a hammer and a chisel. There is no doubt that this is the location of the headquarters of the Blacksmiths Guild.

There was the smell of coke from burning flames in the air, and the sound was a little noisy. Li Xuanji roughly walked around the first floor and found that there was no advantage to be taken, so he walked towards the second floor.

It can be said that Lou Gao was really unlucky when he met Tang San.

Lou Gao is the president of the blacksmith association and is best at fine forging. When Li Xuanji wanted to make some fine parts of the soul guide, only Lou Gao could do it.

But now there are only three master craftsmen on Douluo Continent, namely Tang Hao, Lou Gao, and Tai Tai.

"No need to be polite, two masters, I am also here to see the master craftsman Lou Gao, please help me report it."

Li Xuanji restrained his breath and spoke in a gentle tone.

"Yes, senior, please come this way."

Silong walked to the door on the fifth floor, raised his hand and knocked several times with different strength on different places on the alloy door. The sound of mechanical operation was also heard from behind the metal door.

When Silong knocked on the door thirty-six times, the metal door made a clanking sound and slowly opened to the side.

“The gate is so strong, what’s the use of the house if it’s not strong enough?”

Li Xuanji stroked the door, which was made of various alloys, and complained helplessly for a while. This alloy gate can block the attacks of ordinary Soul Saints, but the walls of the Blacksmith Association cannot block the attacks of Soul Saints.

"Senior, this gate is called the Grandmaster's Gate, just for decoration. The Grandmaster's Gate was built by the first divine craftsman, and it is of great significance to the Blacksmith Association. Only blacksmiths above the Grandmaster can have their own casting area. It is not true. To block the enemy’s attack.”

Silong said with a smile beside him, the status of a titled Douluo is much more noble than that of Lou Gao. Although Lou Gao is a master craftsman, if he can become a powerful Titled Douluo, doesn't he have any secondary duties?
Take Dugu Bo, the weakest titled Douluo, for example. If he revealed his idea of ​​going to the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect to serve as the guardian elder, Ning Fengzhi would definitely visit the thatched cottage three times and promise that Dugu would be the third figure in the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect from now on.

Of course, now Dugu Bo has been shot to death by an arrow from Light Ling Douluo, and even the Ice and Fire Eyes have been taken over by Li Xuanji.

It’s just that Dugu Yan ran away and didn’t know where he went. But after such a long time, the hatred in Li Xuanji's heart has also reduced a lot, and the entire Douluo Continent will no longer hunt Dugu Yan.

After all, in the face of time, all hatred in the world seems insignificant and weak.

There are a total of thirty-six casting rooms on the fifth floor, only five of which make noise. Obviously, even a master craftsman would not spend all day in this forging room.

Silong came to the No. 1 forging room at the innermost part of the fifth floor, stopped, stood respectfully outside the door, raised his hand and knocked on the door three times.

"What's the matter? Didn't I say..." A dull voice sounded, and it was full of energy, which showed from the side that the owner of the voice had deep cultivation.

"Teacher, your Majesty is looking for you."

Silong was afraid that his teacher would say something that would offend Li Xuanji, so he quickly replied.

But Silong's voice entered the forging room, and Lou Gao put away all his complaints.

He has a hot temper, but who can be right?

Soon the door of the No. 1 forging room opened, and an old man with a height of 1.6 meters, a waist of 1.6 meters, small eyes, and messy short white hair walked out quickly, like a big meat ball rolling on the ground.

"What's your title? I've never seen him before."

Lou Gao narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Xuanji carefully.

He is about 1.9 meters tall, with a well-proportioned body, neat short black hair, healthy wheat-colored skin, and a wild vitality. There is a smile on the corner of the mouth, which looks very soft, and the eyes are deep, as if he is very smart.

But the most important thing is that the man in front of him looks very young, and there is no trace of soul power fluctuations in his body. Lou Gao is not only a master craftsman, but also a Soul Douluo. If he can hide the soul power fluctuations so perfectly under his eyes, he must be a titled Douluo.

(Currently Li Xuanji is using Qianbian Wanhua, which looks like a small version of Li Shenji.)
"A ban? I haven't taken it yet. However, I recently established a new force in Tiandou City called Shenji Palace. I am Li Shenji, the leader of Shenji Palace."

Li Xuanji no longer hid his soul power fluctuations, but silently used the ever-changing soul rings, and nine soul rings appeared on his body: yellow, yellow, purple, black, black, black, and red.

That look of scorning the world and that irresistible pressure made Lou Gao almost suffocated and unable to resist at all.

His body instinctively wanted to kneel down, but at this moment Li Xuanji simply put away his soul ring. Lou Gao breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Li Xuanji with eyes filled with awe.

"Tiled Douluo above level ninety-five! Divine Machine Hall!"

It's not that Lou Gao has never seen a titled Douluo, but even the aura of Emperor Xingluo is not as scary as Li Xuanji!

Unexpectedly, the legendary Master of Divine Machinery was not only a master of theory, but also had such terrifying strength.

Now that the Haotian Sect has been severely damaged by the Wuhun Palace, and has lost its external resources, the power of the Haotian Sect may decline rapidly. The Shenji Palace has the support of the Tiandou royal family, as well as the young titleholder Li Shenji. Douluo.

I am afraid that the Divine Machine Palace will replace the Haotian Sect and become one of the three sects on the Douluo Continent in the future.

Based on the news obtained in recent days, Lou Gao began to guess the purpose of Li Xuanji's visit.

"My Majesty, please come inside. My room is a bit shabby, so please don't blame me, senior."

Lou Gao looked at Li Xuanji and said carefully, and his originally loud voice became gentle.

There is a saying that is right, your height determines the attitude of others towards you.

When he saw Li Xuanji, Lou Gao banned many of the common expressions he usually used for fear of offending Li Xuanji.

"The mountains are not high, and immortals are famous. Waters are not deep, and dragons are spiritual. How can this forging room be so simple when Senior Lou Gao is sitting in it?"

Jianghu, it is not about fighting and killing, it is about human relations.

Although Li Xuanji's strength far exceeds the height of the building, his superficial etiquette is still very good.

"Your Majesty, why did you come to Gengxin City this time? Is there anything I can do for you?"

Lou Gao was extremely happy to be called senior by Li Xuanji. After all, the two identities of Divine Craftsman and Contra were nothing before Titled Douluo, and no Titled Douluo was usually so polite to him.

"Senior Lou Gao, among the three great craftsmen of Douluo Continent, your forging technology is undoubtedly the best, and I have done some research on making soul guides. Some of these fine parts may only be made by you on Douluo Continent. So I would like to invite senior to join me in the Divine Machine Palace."

Li Xuanji's idea was to develop the Divine Machine Hall into a force similar to the Mingde Hall of the Sun and Moon Empire during the Dou Er Period. Naturally, a forging master like Lou Gao was indispensable for forging soul guides.

Do you want me to join the Divine Machine Temple? How is this possible? He is the president of the Blacksmiths Association, and he is considered a very powerful person in Gengxin City. Even the city lord of Gengxin City and the Bishop of Wuhun Palace have to give him face.

Why should he go to another force to be his younger brother? What's more, he went to the Tiandou Empire, and he was from the Star Luo Empire.

"My Majesty Shenji invited me, I shouldn't have declined, but the inheritance of blacksmiths in Douluo Continent is difficult, and all the big and small matters of this blacksmith association cannot be separated from me. I really can't get away from going to Tiandou City. It's all my fault, these apprentices. I can't handle the big and small matters of the Blacksmiths Association, otherwise I, Lou Gao, would not have said a word if Your Majesty invited me."

Lou Gao started to perform, as if he was very sorry that he could not join the Shenji Temple.

"Senior, there is no need to go to Tiandou City. In the future, my Divine Machine Palace will cover the entire Douluo Continent, just like today's Wuhun Palace."

"And the main business of our Divine Machine Palace is the manufacturing of soul guidance devices. I believe that seniors also know that the soul guidance devices that exist today are all antiques from ancient times. Only Wuhun Palace can manufacture a small number of soul guidance devices."

"However, the soul guides that Wuhun Palace can manufacture are also very limited, and they have not invested much energy in the research and development of soul guides. However, Wuhun Palace has launched several soul guides that can be used to increase productivity and improve people's livelihood. "

"Soul guides are the future of Douluo Continent. My Divine Machine Palace will gradually grow in this historical trend. At that time, the blacksmith will not only be a blacksmith, but will be respected as a blacksmith, and his status will be greatly improved. "Senior Lou Gao doesn't need to go to Tiandou City. In a few years, the Divine Machine Palace will be spread throughout the main city of the Star Luo Empire."

Li Xuanji said sincerely that perhaps the current soul tools cannot effectively improve the combat power of soul masters, but they can be used to improve people's livelihood.

The beliefs generated by the largest group of ordinary people will all converge on Li Xuanji. Moreover, Li Xuanji also has a soul master's basic training manual, which can harvest the soul master's faith.

The speed of gathering faith must be extremely fast, and when Douluo Continent gets on the right track, Li Xuanji will go to Sun Moon Continent to harvest the faith of Sun Moon Continent.

Hearing Li Xuanji's words, Lou Gao looked thoughtful, hesitated for a moment and then said: "If the Shenji Temple can develop to Gengxin City, then I, Lou Gao, and even the entire Blacksmiths Association are willing to help you."
