When he first came here, Shi Fen couldn't believe it. He often doubted life. He couldn't believe it was real all the time. He even suspected that he was not dead and was in a mirage.

After Shi Fen "died" at that time, Shi Fen "saw" his "soul leaving the body" with his own eyes.

His soul shone with colored light and separated from his body.

At that moment, I felt more relaxed than ever before, and my soul seemed to be integrating with the universe. That comfortable feeling didn't last long, and the soul suddenly began to sink. It seemed that the soul had fallen into an endless abyss, and it kept falling, as if there would never be an end.

The soul seems to be falling into "reincarnation in hell".

After falling for an unknown period of time, when Shi Fen saw a dazzling golden light, the feeling of weightlessness finally ended, and he completely lost his sense of autonomy.

When Shi Fen woke up again, Shi Fen found himself lying on the crib, with many babies crying beside him. Looking at his petite "little hands", Shi Fen was shocked to find that he had been reincarnated.

When Shi Fen discovered that this was the world of Devouring Starry Sky and that he and Luo Feng were neighbors, Shi Fen became even more suspicious of life.

Not long after arriving here, when I finally accepted the reality and was preparing to sort out the timeline of events in this world in the Memory Palace, inheritance unexpectedly started.

The "Memory Palace Method" is a special memory method.

This method is a special memory method that I was forced to learn by a strange disease in my previous life.

The "Memory Palace Method" is a very powerful memory technique. It uses a place that you are familiar with to connect the things you want to remember with that place, thereby completing a systematic method of memorizing a large amount of information. This is an efficient memory method. If you master this method, you can become a "memory superman".

In layman's terms, construct a familiar scene in your mind and store a large number of memories in it. It's like building a special "database" in your mind.

Some people store their memories in books, and some people store their memories in imaginary "computers".

The form is different, but the result is the same.

That day.

Just like the daily life in the previous life.

An old man, after inspecting the "warehouse" of scientific and technological achievements in a scientific research base, wanted to go into the "study" at the deepest part of the "Memory Palace" to study unfinished projects.

Because no entertainment information is stored in the "Memory Palace".

Shi Fen could only rely on his amazing memory and reading it countless times to recall every detail. He dare not say that he recalled all the details, but he still recalled 80% to 90% of the original plot of "Swallowing the Stars".

Entering the deepest study room door, Shi Fen was shocked to find that he had accidentally entered the depths of his mind.

Here I saw a golden ball of light that illuminated the sea of ​​consciousness, and outside were 9 small dark golden spheres of solid mental power.

In his mind, Shifen's body changed from the appearance of an old man to that of a young man, and his consciousness returned to youth. Before he could be happy, his consciousness was sucked into the golden ball of light, starting the inheritance.

"Shi Fen, you have been sent to the world of Devouring Starry Sky by me.

There is also a piece of my inheritance that went with you. When you complete all the inheritance trials, it will be the day you and I meet.

Come on. Good luck. "

These words written in "Chinese language" started Shi Fen's 18-year journey to hell.

Inside the golden ball of light is a mysterious virtual space.

This space seemed like the inside of a magnificent palace, with the walls, roof, and ground all glowing with a faint milky white light. The length and width of the "hall" are at least 1 kilometer, and the height is at least 100 meters.

It is 1 kilometer long and wide, with an area equivalent to 130 standard football fields.

This is simply a "small town"!

On the ground of the "small town", there are all kinds of strange "tools", some placed on tables of different sizes, and some placed directly on the ground. The various tools are strange in shape and vary widely.

A variety of "tools", although their appearance is very different. But they all use silver as the main color, supplemented by other colors. The style is like the cool-looking science fiction products in "science fiction movies".

There is a bookshelf near the teleport point, as well as two sets of "ultra-modern" style, full of technology, spacious and huge "sofa" and "coffee table".

The bookshelf is not too wide, only about 40 centimeters, but it is at least 10 meters long. The height is not an exaggeration, only about 2 meters.

There are many books of different thicknesses arranged neatly on the bookshelves. The thickest ones are more than 20 centimeters, and the thinnest ones are only two or three centimeters. The bookshelf has a total of 4 layers of books. The books on each layer are nearly half a meter high and are "stuck" inside the bookshelf, making them fit perfectly.

On the side of the book, there are very conspicuous four square characters with complicated strokes. In addition, there are many small characters of different sizes. These small characters also have complicated strokes.

Shi Fen has some knowledge of ancient characters. After lying on the book for a long time to identify them, he felt that they were a bit like the ancient Chinese "big and small seal scripts". Compared with the "big and small seal scripts", they were more complex and more beautiful.

Just reading every word makes me feel happy, like looking at a beautiful picture.

The moment Shi Fen reached out and touched the book, countless colorful lights lit up throughout the space.

The colorful light comes suddenly and goes away suddenly.

When Shi Fen read the book again, he was stunned. All the words in the book turned into Chinese.

The name of this book is already written in "Chinese" script, "Extreme Forging: The Forging Basis of Patterned Steel". Shi Fen found a book called "Qualification" in the upper left corner of the bookshelf.

This book is only 5cm thick at most. On the cover of the book, there are two big characters "Qualification" like iron hanging silver hooks.

When Shi Fen opened this book, Shi Fen's nightmare life officially began.

A powerful flow of information rushed into Shi Fen's consciousness and was firmly imprinted on the deepest part of Shi Fen's soul.

"Shifen, welcome to officially start the qualification trial.

To help you, memorize all the content quickly and complete the trial as quickly as possible. When you read this book, I put all the information from all the books on the shelf into your mind. After all the information is instilled, your consciousness will return to the real world.

You'd better sort out all the information before coming here again. I believe that with your accumulation in the previous life, most of the previous content will not be difficult for you. As for the final stage, your understanding will be tested. But I firmly believe that it is only a matter of time before you succeed. After all, your soul is very...

Why? Why am I saying this? Forehead……

Forget it, I won’t record it again, that’s it. Anyway, you will discover your talent. If it weren't for your talent, I wouldn't bother you like this.

Ahem, in short, in this world, the faster you complete the qualification trial, the faster you can proceed to the next stage of trial. I have left you some things in the next stage. These things, as resources for you to contact the universe and cultivate your tribe, can be considered so-so. When you complete the next stage of the trial, these things will all be yours, hahaha.

This "Qualification" is the control core of this virtual trial space. I have also specially added a "one-click reset" function for you.

I just don’t know if you can meet the standards before you turn 18 with so many conveniences.

Okay, I’ve said a lot.

If you want to enter the virtual trial space in the future, after meditation, your consciousness will condense on your brain. After your consciousness enters the sea of ​​​​consciousness, just like you did this time, enter from the golden light ball.

Passing the qualification trial before the age of 18 will give you an extra small reward. Ha ha ha ha"

Behind this free-spirited, somewhat risqué message is a massive amount of graphic and textual information.

At that time, Shi Fen only read the beginning of that paragraph, and then he completely lost consciousness and fainted.

A few days later, Shi Fen woke up in a daze. His head felt like it was cracked.

since that day.

The inheritance that has lasted for nearly 18 years has officially begun.

It took Shi Fen nearly a year to complete the basic information integration.

Most of the books on the bookshelf are the "knowledge points" of Shifen's "Qualification Trial", and a small half of them are "instructions for use" of the tools in the entire "Forging Square".

In the "Memory Palace", I summarized all the information, received a lot of stimulation, and completed the preliminary digestion of knowledge. After completion, Shi Fen completely "tear down" the "Memory Palace".

Shi Fen discovered that after entering the memory palace, his conscious body was still in the state of an elderly person. Entering the virtual trial space, his conscious body was in the state of a young person.

Shi Fen vaguely felt that there would be problems if this contrasting state continued.

So I was cruel and demolished it directly!

After completing the information integration, Shi Fen spent nearly another year learning how to use various tools in the square.

Shi Fen saw many heaven-defying technological tools. Shi Fen received a lot of stimulation and forcibly broadened Shi Fen's "eyesight." Shi Fen's trial mission did not use those "world-defying technological tools" at all.

In fact, the tools used for stone separation are all super simplified versions.

To give a few examples, tools such as iron felt, hammer, etc.

The heaven-defying version of the tool can change shape, change size, adjust weight, etc. It is extremely convenient and effective. It's a pity that because I don't have the authority to recognize the master, I can only pick it up and stare at it.

The "super simplified version" tools used by Shi Fen include nearly a thousand types of hammers alone, and each type is divided into dozens to dozens of types according to different volume and weight.

Ishibun has learned how to use countless tools this year, and can basically use them reluctantly. If he wants to be proficient in using them, it will take a long time of training.

The operational foundation has been laid, and Shifen has officially entered the focus of the "Qualification Trial".

"Extreme Forging"!

Ultimate forging can be divided into three major stages, and each major stage is further divided into three small stages, for a total of 9 small stages.

The first major stage is basic forging.

According to the degree of basic forging, it is divided into three small stages, namely:

1. Purification of pig iron.

Second, fine steel comes out of a thousand hammers.

Third, Kobelco is forged through hundreds of refinements.

The second major stage is pattern steel forging.

According to the internal pattern of the metal, it is divided into three stages, namely:

One, "rope" pattern.

Second, the "cloth" pattern.

Third, the "star sea" pattern.

The third major stage is the "basic structure" forging of metal (also known as "transformation forging").

According to the volume concentration of metal, it is divided into three stages.

One, the metal is concentrated 3 times.

Second, the metal is concentrated 9 times.

Third, the metal is concentrated 100 times.

The first major stage.

It is to purify pig iron into ordinary steel, and then upgrade the ordinary steel to top-grade refined steel through repeated tempering.

The second major stage.

Although the name of this stage is pattern steel forging, the real pattern is inside the metal. The pattern here refers to the arrangement and texture of metal atoms at the atomic level of the metal as a whole. The metal surface can be a pattern of any shape.

At this stage, after forging, the metal has no special patterns or marks, the internal texture is not prominent, and the metallic luster is as original as it is.

"Rope" pattern, "cloth" pattern, "star sea" pattern.

They are the three states of the overall arrangement of metal atoms inside the metal.

Simply put, through forging, metal atoms are crystallized, condensed into "ropes", woven into "cloth", and gathered into the inseparable "star sea" in the universe.

In this large stage, metal atoms will be condensed together so that they are extremely tightly combined, forcibly improving the strength and performance of the metal.

Reached the level of "Star Sea Pattern"

In the internal structure of the metal at this time, the crystallization of metal atoms is extremely evenly distributed. The metal atoms are like stars in the sea of ​​stars, firmly connected together, and the atomic cohesion is amazing.

The metallic properties of steel far exceed the limits of the metallic properties of "steel".

These are the first two major stages.

Stone separation requires only the use of a "normal" forging hammer, which has the ability to detect the atomic ordering within the metal. With this forging hammer, Shi Fen can completely sense the arrangement of atoms inside the metal and assist him in forging.

The third major stage has been reached.

Stone separation requires the use of a more advanced "vibration hammer" to make up for the lack of ability. With the "shock wave" of the "shock hammer", Shi Fen can perform this stage of forging.

At this stage, on the basis of Xinghai grain steel, through forging, the magical properties of the vibrating hammer are used to change the state of metal atoms, destroy the "metal bonds" between metal atoms, and "fit" the metal atoms together one by one. Forcibly "concentrate" the metal to increase its density and strength.

This is a treasure refining method that "turns decay into magic" and can forge "ordinary iron" into "divine iron".

In the qualification trial, in addition to mastering the main part of "Extreme Forging", Shifen also needs to master the "Miscellaneous" part of "Extreme Forging".

"Miscellaneous"

It has many projects, thousands of them, all related to treasure refining or forging.

Such as: the use of various technological tools and hand forging tools.

Iron ore refining. Iron is 100% purified.

Tool processing and shaping. Various forms of casting processes.

Quenching, annealing, tempering, normalizing and other processes.

Cutting, filing, drilling, tapping, cutting, grinding, welding, complex precision engraving and other processes.

Special forging processes such as metal powder metallurgy, steel cladding, steel clamping, soil-covered burning edge, pattern steel pattern customization, etc.

Pickling, sharpening and other processes reveal the shape and edge of the blade.

Decorative techniques such as engraving, engraving, gilding, inlay, distressing, etc.

Weapon protective case manufacturing process.

These are just the crafts that Shi Fen has heard about. There are many craft methods that Shi Fen has never imagined in the "miscellaneous items". The total number of them is far more than 1,000.

"Miscellaneous" although there are many items.

But because the supporting tools are so efficient and powerful, Shifen can easily complete most "miscellaneous tasks" just like operating a "fool machine" by pressing a few buttons, at most doing it himself, and setting a few more operating requirements. "project.

For Shi Fen, these projects are simply "entertainment projects" specially set up for Shi Fen. Shi Fen is not willing to complete them all at once, and wants to leave them to himself to enjoy slowly, thereby alleviating other pressures.

In addition to these "miscellaneous" items that are simple to operate.

Apart from this, all the remaining projects require Shi Fen to figure it out himself. These projects are all more or less related to extreme forging. Generally speaking, they are all cold weapon forging abilities that improve stone points.

The most important technology in "Miscellaneous".

It is the pattern steel pattern customization technology.

It is the second major stage, the entry-level technology for pattern steel forging.

Explain the principle of texture generation from a macro perspective.

After initially mastering this technology, Shifen can try the second stage of forging. After fully mastering this technology, the forged weapons can be decorated with various patterns and patterns on the basis of ensuring the material quality. Such as: wavy pattern, whirling pattern, feather pattern, fish intestine pattern, chrysanthemum pattern, ladder pattern, etc.

The requirements for the "Qualification Trial" are very high.

The stone must be forged with 100-fold concentration and all miscellaneous items must be completed to pass the "Qualification Trial".

There are some "projects" among them. Shi Fen has been exposed to similar technologies in his previous life, and Shi Fen is quite confident about them.

The most unassuming thing about stone division is the third major stage of metal "basic structure" forging.

This is a heaven-defying "magic" that completely shocked Shifen's "view of science and technology".

If we compare the science and technology accumulated in previous lives to a technology tree. What Shifen sees and hears now is directly digging the roots of the technology tree. Completely subversive and destroying Shifen's understanding of science.

The "memory palace of the past life" has been demolished, but the technology tree in Shi Xin's heart will not disappear with it.

Originally, the growth of the technology tree required a little bit of learning and accumulation on your own. As a result, the science and technology that emerged in the "Qualification Trial" directly uprooted the technology tree that Shi Xin was focusing on and forcibly improved it countless times.

It opened the door to a new world of Shi Fen's understanding of science and technology.

Because of Shi Fen's advantages in the blacksmith environment at home, Shi Fen stepped on the shoulders of Shi Tie and Mr. Shi and made rapid progress all the way.

At the age of 8, the first major stage is completed.

At the age of 12, the second major stage is completed.

When I was less than 16 years old, I broke through to the eighth small stage, and then entered a bottleneck, making it difficult to make progress.

At the age of 17, complete all miscellaneous content.

He made a breakthrough before the age of 18, but was sucked into sex by Black Mirror.

"It's a pity that I didn't see those heaven-defying technological tools showing off their power in the qualification trial."

As a technology geek, this is Shi Xin's most troubled regret.
