Chapter 161: The real forging that is different from the shaping of the Yantian space! (Second update, please subscribe)

"This is your second senior sister, Li Hongshuang. She is considered to have the best forging talent among my disciples. Unfortunately, she does not have the talent of a card maker, which is a bit regrettable."

The Second Senior Sister is completely different from the First Senior Sister's sturdy stand-in.

To be more precise, only the eldest sister's body shape is a bit unfair.

The second senior sister has a gentle appearance, and her figure is somewhat similar to Huang Yuetian.

She was plump and mature, with a unique charm even though she was only wearing a few strips of cloth and was covered in sweat.

"Hello, little junior brother~" Second senior sister Li Hongshuang smiled and extended her hand first.

"Hello, Second Senior Sister." Ye Ning stretched out his hand nervously and shook hands with Li Hongshuang.

"Don't listen to Master's nonsense. I'm not the one with the best forging talent. I'm just not a card maker after all. So I don't have the time to study card making. The extra time can only be used for forging."

"Okay, second brother, you should get back to work. We need to speed up the delivery of the props that the city needs."

"Yes, Master!"

Then Huang Yuetian brought Ye Ning to the last two.

When Ye Ning saw the two of them closer, he realized that they didn't look just a little similar, but they looked exactly the same.

But it is very easy to distinguish them because their expressions are quite different.

"You should have figured out that these two little Nings are twins. The one who looks more sunny and dyed her hair golden is called Wang Xiaolu, and she is your third senior sister.

The one who looks a bit silly and a bit shy is Wang Xiaoyue, your fourth senior sister."

"Hello, Third Senior Sister and Fourth Senior Sister." Looking at the two people who looked the same but were completely different in every way, Ye Ning greeted them respectfully, and then tried his best not to look at the "Fourth Senior Sister" who looked a little shy.

"Okay, third brother, you continue working, and fourth brother, go change your clothes first." After arranging everything, Huang Yuetian took Ye Ning to the forging room.

"Xiao Ning, what do you think forging is for?"

Huang Yuetian's sudden question stunned Ye Ning.

He was not quite sure what Huang Yuetian meant by this question.

What is forging?
To be honest, Ye Ning really didn't know how to answer this question.

If it was in the previous life, forging was forging, which was a necessary step in making metal products and a craft.

But in this world, the presence of forging is actually lower.

There is no way. The card maker's Yantian Space can melt all materials, which is sometimes more useful than forging.

So, in fact, from Ye Ning's personal point of view, he felt that it was quite strange that after the existence of the profession of card maker, there were also specialized blacksmiths in this world.

But the "aunt" in front of him was not only a master of forging, but also a card maker at the Venerable level.

At the same time, her four apprentices were doing forging work.

Is forging really dispensable?

At this moment, Ye Ning felt that there might be something he didn't know about this forging. On the other side, seeing that Ye Ning seemed to be thinking for a long time without answering, Huang Yuetian smiled.

As a card maker, since he did not answer this question immediately, it seems that he has already started thinking about forging.

This kid is really good.

"You are a card maker yourself. I think you must have thought about this question before. Obviously, all materials can be melted in the Yantian space and reshaped into the shape you want, so why do we need the profession of blacksmith?

Maybe you have thought before that it might be because there are so few card makers."

Hearing Huang Yuetian's words, Ye Ning nodded.

That's right. Before today, he had always thought that the Blacksmith was a lower-level substitute for the Card Maker, or that he was purely a helper who helped the Card Maker process materials in advance when making equipment cards.

But now it seems that it is not just that, or things are not that simple.

“Actually, there is some truth to this. In fact, the earliest blacksmiths did appear because of the scarcity of card makers. However, as the blacksmiths were passed down from generation to generation, some branches were formed.

Only those blacksmiths who have truly walked their own path can be considered blacksmiths.

Those who forge for the sake of forging without any special features can only be called blacksmiths."

Blacksmith and forger?
Ye Ning nodded, not quite understanding. He roughly understood what Huang Yuetian meant, but it was obviously unlikely that he could fully understand it.

After all, he had no idea about the so-called path of a blacksmith.

Huang Yuetian certainly didn't expect that just a few words would make Ye Ning understand the true meaning of a blacksmith.

After all, Ye Ning was not her apprentice. In fact, although she loved Ye Ning because of Ding Dequan's relationship, she had no intention of accepting Ye Ning as her apprentice.

The purpose of saying this is to let Ye Ning not rely too much on the ability of his card maker Yantian Space to evolve all things.

“Forging is a very complex skill that involves many aspects. Some techniques and skills often cause some changes, but these changes bring about differences in card quality. For card makers, these differences can be compensated through subsequent upgrades.

But it is different for real high-level blacksmiths. They can inject their own spirit into their works through forging. This special emotion from people can add special power to the works, and this power can even evolve into special abilities when making cards.

The card maker's shaping in the Yantian space is due to the special nature of the Yantian space, it only completes the reshaping of the form, this is the biggest difference between the two."

The spirit of a blacksmith?
Ye Ning actually had a general understanding of this.

This is like the settings in some novels in previous lives.

Certain equipment has special souls, and only special forging masters can add such souls to equipment.

There are even legends that say some special equipment was obtained by sacrificing the lives of the forging masters themselves.

Probably something like that.

However, because of the existence of spiritual energy in this world, those blacksmiths possess powerful star power and mental power, and can use these two as a sacrifice instead of life to enhance the "soul" of the equipment and props they produce.

That being said, Ye Ning might be able to understand.

"Xiao Ning, originally your aunt was going to forge the [Transformer Steel] for you herself, but someone from above had something to ask me this morning, so I have to leave for a while. As for your [Transformer Steel], let your senior sister help you complete it. Don't worry about her skills. After all, she is my longest-serving disciple. Besides, the [Forging Special Stand] she made actually has unique abilities. It's actually great for her to complete the [Transformer Steel]."
