Having finished the physical training, next was the mental strength cultivation.
Regarding mental strength, Quan Yi practiced control through observation and imitation.
The Blazing Apricot Flood is a perfect practice method.
Simply put, this Soul Skill can be said to be a skill that combines shape transformation and property transformation.
Quan Yi's goal was to achieve instantaneous release without relying on the Crimson Dragon Eyes.
By then, Quan Yi's control would definitely be elevated to a more terrifying level.
However, now that Quan Yi had fulfilled his oath with Dugu Bo, he decided to leave this place temporarily.
"Senior, I will be leaving for a while."
Quan Yi had been living here for two months, and had been with Dugu Bo for more than a month.
The two ate and lived together. When Quan Yi was cultivating, Dugu Bo would study by the side.
At night, Quan Yi would lie in the spring to cultivate, while Dugu Bo would deal with the backlash at the foot of the mountain.
During this process, both of them put down their respective disguises, and gradually became friends who could talk about anything.
Therefore, when Dugu Bo saw that Quan Yi was leaving for a period of time, he felt a burst of loss in his heart.
He asked in a low voice, "How long will you be gone?"
Quan Yi smiled and said, "What? Can't bear to part with me? Don't worry, it won't be long. I'll come back after I've finished my business."
After hearing this, Dugu Bo showed a look of disgust, then turned around and left directly. After walking a distance, he casually waved his hand and said, "Go, I won't see you off."
Dugu Bo's emotions fluctuated erratically. Quan Yi cursed inwardly, "He's just like an old brat, he doesn't have the demeanor of an expert at all."
Putting aside his cold exterior, the real Dugu Bo acted in his own way, but he also had his own principles, and his nature wasn't bad.
He was very generous to those he approved of. During the days they lived together, Dugu Bo would also guide Quan Yi's cultivation.
The experience of a Titled Douluo was also invaluable to Quan Yi.
This also allowed Quan Yi to slowly approve of Dugu Bo.
"Then I'm leaving." Quan Yi shouted loudly, then directly turned into flames and flew out of the poison array.
An hour and a half later, Quan Yi returned to the dormitory.
It was afternoon now, and usually this was the time for Huo Wu to cultivate Soul Skills.
Quan Yi didn't find Huo Wu's figure around the wooden house or the lake.
However, he knew that Huo Wu was currently in seclusion in the simulated environment.
There was less than a month left until the end of the semester.
As the end of the semester approached, Huo Wu focused her cultivation on breaking through bottlenecks.
In two years, Huo Wu had risen four levels in a row. Now, she was only one step away from breaking through.
A large part of the reason why Quan Yi chose to come back at this time was for Huo Wu.
Knowing that Huo Wu was still cultivating, Quan Yi didn't disturb her. He turned around and went to the Second Blacksmith Shop where Lou Gao was located.
Quan Yi walked familiarly towards Lou Gao's personal forging room.
Since taking on the task of forging armor, Lou Gao would soak himself in his forging room during the day, researching and experimenting with the various properties of Soul Guidance Metals.
However, today there was no sound of forging iron that was usually heard everywhere.
"Knock knock knock."
"Come in."
Lou Gao's voice rang out.
Quan Yi pushed open the door and walked in.
"Young Master, you're back."
Lou Gao greeted Quan Yi's arrival with a smile.
Quan Yi smiled and said, "Looking at your expression, did you succeed?"
Lou Gao nodded excitedly, and reached out to lead Quan Yi to his workbench.
On Lou Gao's forging table, there were various Soul Guidance Metals placed, and next to them were various carving tools of different shapes. These carving tools were actually forged from Soul Guidance Metals.
There was even a magnifying glass fixed on a bracket on the table.
Lou Gao walked to the workbench, picked up a piece of dark Soul Guidance Metal, and then handed it to Quan Yi.
The metal surface was smooth and flat. What was peculiar was that a complex pattern was faintly visible on the flat surface.
Obviously, this was a pattern carved by hand.
Lou Gao handed it to Quan Yi, and then excitedly explained, "Young Master, this is the pattern I imitated and carved."
Quan Yi took the metal, and then took out a golden Soul Coin from his Blazing Sun Heart.
Then, while inputting Soul Power into the metal, he brought the golden Soul Coin close to the metal.
As Quan Yi input Soul Power into the metal, his Soul Power smoothly injected into the Soul Guidance Metal, and then the complex patterns on the metal surface lit up with a faint fluorescent light under the injection of Soul Power.
Immediately afterwards, Quan Yi could feel a peculiar Soul Power fluctuation emanating from the metal. The next moment, the golden Soul Coin in Quan Yi's hand disappeared suddenly when it was only a few centimeters away from the metal.
When Quan Yi saw this situation, although his expression remained calm, his eyes were full of joy.
He turned his head to Lou Gao and praised, "Master Lou, to be able to successfully replicate the Storage Soul Guidance Device in just over a month, you truly deserve to be called a Divine Craftsman."
Lou Gao hurriedly said, "The truly remarkable one is the Young Master. I was able to complete it all because of the samples and blueprints provided by the Young Master. Without these, even if you gave me more time, I wouldn't be able to make it."
Lou Gao looked at Quan Yi with a face full of reverence. Although Quan Yi was young, he was able to repeatedly create miracles in forging.
This made Lou Gao sincerely admire him.
Being able to refine special Soul Guidance Metals was not enough. A month ago, Quan Yi suddenly appeared, and then in front of him, he successfully carved a complex pattern on the metal.
Then, this metal with the engraved pattern actually turned into a small Storage Soul Guidance Device that could hold a small amount of items.
At that moment, Lou Gao was greatly shocked.
This was an ancient technique that had lost its inheritance. He had never heard of anyone being able to replicate a Soul Guidance Device.
As a result, he didn't expect that his Young Master would actually replicate the Soul Guidance Device.
However, what was even more amazing was that the Young Master also taught him the method of manufacturing the Soul Guidance Device.
Since that day, Lou Gao temporarily stopped his work on forging armor and devoted all his energy to studying Soul Guidance Devices.
Fortunately, Lou Gao was good at forging fine objects. After spending more than a month, he successfully carved out the complex pattern without any difference.
Moreover, during the carving process, he also needed to inject a certain amount of Soul Power into the carved lines through the carving knife throughout the entire process.
However, as a Soul Saint-level Soul Master, compared to the complex patterns, Soul Power input was not difficult.
Quan Yi re-injected Soul Power. The next moment, the metal lit up with fluorescent light and spat out the golden Soul Coin.
Quan Yi took the golden Soul Coin and laughed loudly.
"Sure enough, as long as you master the method, even if it's not me, you can manufacture this Soul Guidance Device."
