"Alright, I'll have someone prepare the materials for you right away," Xu Lin said without further ado, immediately dialing his Soul Guidance Phone to contact someone to send the materials.
In less than five minutes, a middle-aged man arrived at the office, bringing three sets of materials.
After the middle-aged man left, Xu Lin led Yun Ze and Gu Yue Na to his exclusive workshop, where the metallic aura was particularly strong.
Many rare metals were placed on the shelves on both sides, numerous in quantity and variety. Most high-grade metals could be found there.
However, most were high-grade metals. Metals of the level needed to create a Third Level Soul Guidance Ray Gun were not present, otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to ask someone to prepare them.
"I had someone prepare three sets of materials, which means you have three chances," Xu Lin said, giving Yun Ze room for error.
Yun Ze merely smiled at this, looking at Gu Yue Na, who took out a silver-white Engraving Knife and handed it to him.
Seeing this, Xu Lin couldn't help but say, "You don't have your own Engraving Knife?"
Generally, Soul Tool Creators would have their own Engraving Knife. A familiar Engraving Knife allows for better inscription of Arrays.
"No, this is actually my first time making a Soul Tool," Yun Ze replied naturally, organizing the materials before beginning to inscribe the Arrays.
These materials were already processed and didn't need further polishing. They only required the inscription of Arrays and final assembly.
Inscribing Arrays is the key to making Soul Tools. What Xu Lin wanted to see was Yun Ze inscribing the Arrays, so he had someone prepare the polished metals directly.
"First time making a Soul Tool?" Xu Lin froze in place, looking at Yun Ze with surprise and uncertainty.
He remained silent, staring intently at Yun Ze's movements, his eyes unblinking, as if afraid of missing a single step.
Gu Yue Na also watched with interest, feeling a bit anxious. Could he succeed on his first attempt at making a Soul Tool?
This kid must be lying to me. How could someone have such skilled technique on their first time making a Soul Tool? Xu Lin thought angrily.
Yun Ze's movements were not only not clumsy but also very practiced, with appropriate force and smooth, continuous lines in his inscriptions, without the slightest pause.
The starting points, trajectories, and ending points of the Array lines were chosen extremely correctly, even perfectly. Not even he could find any flaws.
"This kid is truly a genius!" Xu Lin's face showed shock, along with unconcealed excitement.
An expert's skill is evident at first glance. As a Ninth Level Soul Tool Creator, he knew within less than two minutes that Yun Ze was a rare genius in the world.
His technique and understanding of Arrays were nothing like a six-year-old child's; he clearly resembled an old man who had specialized in Soul Tools for decades.
Having such practiced Array inscription technique at just over six years old made it obvious what this meant: this child's Soul Tool talent was incredibly high.
The more Xu Lin watched, the more astonished he became. Half an hour later, his mouth was wide open, almost able to fit an egg, his expression of surprise frozen.
A Third Level Soul Guidance Ray Gun has twenty-three components, including four main components and nineteen sub-components.
Inscribing the sub-components is relatively easier, requiring only the inscription of twenty to thirty secondary Arrays, and their connection and fusion are also simple.
However, inscribing the Arrays on the main components is much more difficult, and this is where the real challenge in making Soul Tools lies.
Third-level main components require the inscription of two core Arrays and ten to thirty secondary Arrays. There are conflicts between the core Arrays, and handling these conflicts to make them a cohesive whole is the key to inscription and the most challenging aspect for a Soul Tool Creator.
Yun Ze started by making the main components. In the past half hour, he had already completed one main component.
The second main component was also nearly half-finished with its Array inscription, and now he had reached the critical stage of inscribing and fusing the core Arrays.
Xu Lin's eyes widened, and he moved closer, standing in a position that was near but wouldn't affect Yun Ze, to observe.
Xu Lin was left in awe by Yun Ze's handling of the core array conflicts. Not only did he resolve the conflicts, but he also made the arrays more closely connected, mutually amplifying each other.
"He improved the arrays!" Xu Lin exclaimed in surprise, almost shouting out loud. He had only guessed before, but after observing again, he reached a definitive conclusion.
Yun Ze had indeed improved the arrays, making the two Third Level arrays more complex and profound. They were even more difficult to engrave than typical Fourth Level arrays.
Although the finished product hadn't been made yet, he could already say with certainty that its power would definitely surpass that of a normal Third Level Soul Guidance Ray Gun.
This Soul Tool could even be considered a Fourth Level Soul Tool.
Because the core arrays that made up this Soul Tool were comparable to Fourth Level arrays! After reaching this conclusion, Xu Lin's gaze towards Yun Ze became even more fervent. Yun Ze's Soul Tool talent exceeded his imagination.
Time passed bit by bit. After engraving the third main component, Yun Ze temporarily stopped to rest.
Although his Soul Power was much more abundant than that of ordinary Soul Masters, he was still only at Level 21, and the quantity was somewhat lacking.
Engraving three Soul Venerable-level Third Level arrays continuously was his limit. His Soul Power was basically exhausted now and needed to recover.
Gu Yue Na took out the pre-prepared Soul Guidance Milk Bottle and handed it to Yun Ze. The latter took it and quickly recovered his Soul Power with it.
"Yun Ze, did you improve these arrays yourself?" Xu Lin asked, holding the engraved main component.
His fingers traced the patterns on the component, carefully feeling the lines of the arrays. It felt like touching a treasure, making him reluctant to let go.
"Yes, when I was reading, I felt that perhaps engraving these arrays this way would be better, so I tried engraving them like this," Yun Ze said.
Besides combat, his greatest skill was alchemy. In the Immortal Realm, he was one of the top three alchemists.
However, he wasn't just skilled in alchemy. He had also dabbled in arrays, artifact refining, and other areas, though he wasn't as proficient as he was in alchemy.
But his lack of proficiency was only relative. He couldn't compare to the top array masters and artifact refiners, but he was still far more powerful than others.
After all, with the cultivation of an Immortal Emperor as support, his comprehension was also top-notch, coupled with accumulations over several epochs. How bad could he possibly be? These arrays were also a small branch of array formations, relatively simple, and easy to modify.
His improvement of these Third Level arrays was also an improvisation. If he hadn't considered his Soul Power, he would have improved them even further.
"You've never engraved before, you just thought it could be improved in your mind, and then you improved it?" Xu Lin asked, dumbfounded.
"Yes," Yun Ze nodded.
"This..." Xu Lin felt his throat dry and couldn't speak. He didn't know what to say.
His heart was in turmoil, with huge waves crashing hundreds of feet high. His heartbeat was much faster than usual, making it difficult to calm down.
"Student Gu Yue Na, is this Yun Ze a descendant of a god?" Xu Lin asked this question on a whim.
"Dean, why would you ask that?" Gu Yue Na feigned surprise, but felt amused in her heart. He wasn't a descendant of a god; he himself was a god.
However, speaking of which, since Yun Ze was so powerful, his bloodline background should also be very powerful. Saying he was a descendant of a god wasn't wrong.
