NOVEL NEXT Chapter 18 Bedfellows
Chapter 18 Bedfellows
This "Ice Shattering Jade" is a high-level Profound Rank martial skill, and Su Yun found it in Yao Chen's collection.
It's a long-range group attack martial skill that can shoot out frigid Qi, with a maximum of nine shots.
Previously, he used this martial skill to save Xiao Yi Xian.
After fusion, insights into "Ice Shattering Jade" appeared in Su Yun's mind, and in a moment, he absorbed them completely.
Another martial skill was comprehended to perfection by Su Yun.
With an ample supply of magic cores, Su Yun's rudimentary system once again revealed a glimpse of its capabilities.
It can allow a person to cultivate a martial skill to perfection in an extremely short time!
Without spending too much time on "Ice Shattering Jade," Su Yun shifted his focus to another martial skill.
"Frost Flame Mantra" is a high-level Profound Rank martial skill that forms an omnidirectional fire Qi protective barrier centered around the body, providing additional protection against fire attribute attacks.
Without hesitation, Su Yun directly fused this martial skill, and another fourth-rank magic core disappeared in the system space.
This martial skill, he hadn't cultivated it before; he carefully selected it. According to his plan, it would play a significant role in the future.
After absorbing and digesting this martial skill, Su Yun felt a hint of chaos flashing through his mind.
The amount of information contained in comprehending three martial skills in an instant is not low.
Su Yun stopped the progress of fusing martial skills. With his current state, digesting a few more martial skills would be easy.
But he still needed to leave time for cultivation.
After cultivating for two hours, Su Yun exhaled, feeling somewhat tired.
Getting ready to rest, people at the Fighter stage still need to sleep.
Just as Su Yun covered himself with the blanket and closed his eyes, his door was knocked.
"Boom, boom, brother, are you asleep?"
At this time, Xiao Yi Xian's voice came in, with a hint of crying.
Su Yun got up, opened the door, and there were still tears in Xiao Yi Xian's eyes.
"What's wrong, Xian'er?"
Su Yun asked with concern.
"Xian'er... Xian'er is afraid of the dark. Can Xian'er sleep with brother?"
Su Yun smiled helplessly. It's normal for children to be afraid of the dark. She probably got scared after waking up halfway through her sleep.
"Come up."
Su Yun lifted Xiao Yi Xian onto the bed. Without considering any gender differences, they were still children. It's too early for those things.
The night was quiet, and nothing happened.
Su Yun stayed at home for two days without going out.
During this time, he was proficient in the newly comprehended martial skills.
Although he can directly comprehend martial skills to perfection through the system, the practical application in actual combat still depends on experience.
The martial skills he comprehended through the system were carefully selected.
Among them are those he uses himself, and some are prepared for future avatars.
Today, Su Yun is going to perform the final fusion according to his plan. In the short term, he doesn't need to use magic cores on martial skills.
"System, fuse Ice Spirit Flame Grass and 'Frost Flame Mantra.'"
"Ding, a fusion plan is detected."
"Ding, it requires the consumption of one fourth-rank magic core. Would you like to proceed with the fusion?"
"Fuse."
Su Yun grinned, and after absorbing the information that appeared in his mind, he activated the newly updated "Frost Flame Mantra."
Extending his hand, a unique Qi appeared on his palm. This Qi was a mixture of red and white, unmistakably the Qi with both fire and ice attributes that Su Yun had yearned for.
Su Yun circulated the Qi and unleashed "Eight Extremes Burst" towards a giant rock in front.
The rock exploded with a resounding noise.
"The destructive power!"
Su Yun looked satisfied at the floating martial skill in his hand. With such Qi, his destructive power has risen to a new level!
Moreover, "Frost Flame Mantra" didn't lose its singular fire and ice attributes. Su Yun can still convert his Qi into the previous single attribute.
Su Yun has already made up his mind; in the future, he will have at least three avatars!
Calming the surging emotions in his heart, Su Yun transformed into the appearance of the middle-aged man he was before and walked out.
Wutan City, Xiao Family—his target this time was here.
Whether to establish contact with the Xiao Family had been the subject of his contemplation for a long time.
Today, he arrived here, and the final answer was naturally no different from what was implied.
According to his plan, his next destination is the Tagore Great Desert.
Qinglian Earth Heart Fire!
The allure of the different fires to alchemists is too great.
Moreover, different fires are related to his future achievements!
Although his "Frigid Incineration Technique" can be upgraded to the advanced Celestial Stage through system fusion, his innate talent is a big problem!
The reason why Xiao Yan ultimately became a Battle Emperor, "Frigid Incineration Technique" played the most significant role.
Xiao Yan's talent is not bad, but limited to the Gamma Empire, there are plenty of geniuses in Central Continent. There are many who have better talent than Xiao Yan.
But only Xiao Yan reached the Battle Emperor realm, and the key lies in "Frigid Incineration Technique," and the repeated forging of different fires, which endlessly elevated Xiao Yan's talent and foundation!
Forging with different fires can enhance talent, which is a consensus on the continent.
In his view, every time Xiao Yan absorbs different fires, the biggest gain is not the improvement in strength but the experience of forging with different fires, continuously raising his talent.
With Xiao Yan's original talent, becoming a Battle Master is straightforward, and with a bit of luck, becoming a Battle Venerable is not impossible.
But to become a Battle Saint, he would need the Battle Emperor bloodline from Xiao Xuan, unless he abandons "Frigid Incineration Technique," it would be impossible.
In the original work, it was Xiao Yan's multiple forges with different fires that gave him the qualifications for the Battle Emperor.
With an open path laid out in front of him, Su Yun how could he possibly give up?
On the continent of Qi, talent, background, resources, and opportunities determine your level of achievement.
He has good talent, but it's only comparable to Xiao Yan.
He has no background, no resources, and no opportunities.
To become strong, besides relying on his golden finger, his advantage as a transmigrator is essential!
Forming a relationship with the Xiao Family is part of his plan to obtain the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire.
Potato did not make it very clear about the location of the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire, only a rough indication from the three locations on Haibodong's hand.
But Su Yun, being a lone traveler, trying to find the exact entrance through a rough mark on a map would be like a wild goose chase.
At this time, the importance of influence becomes evident.
Xiao Yan's two older brothers establishing the Desert Iron Mercenary Corps in the Tagore Great Desert is an excellent choice.
His contact with the Xiao Family is not just for this, but also for Xiao Yan himself.
If you've read the original work, you'll know that Xiao Yan is not exactly a good person, but he is not a bad person either.
He is someone who dares to act and will repay kindness.
To live well on the continent of Qi, going solo is simply impractical. Without a certain influence and helpers, when surrounded, you won't even be able to call for help.
His previous sheltering of Xiao Yi Xian was also with this kind of consideration.
