[Ding! New system function unlocked]
Surprise flickered across his face as he stared at the notification hovering in the air. What could this be? The Double Exp function was already absurdly powerful, allowing him to achieve what others would consider impossible cultivation speeds. Now there was something new?
His mental command acknowledged the notification, revealing:
[System Function: Double Exp (Cooldown: 24hrs); Fusion]
Knowledge flooded into his mind instantly, a comprehensive understanding of the new system function washing through his consciousness. Fusion would allow him to merge techniques and scriptures, combining their strengths to create something greater than the sum of its parts. However, there were limitations—techniques could only be merged if they had reached the perfect stage and were compatible with each other. Scriptures merely needed compatibility, without the perfection requirement.
A thought immediately sparked in Xiang Yu’s mind. The Mountain Heart Scripture and Sutra were described as two halves of the same whole. Wouldn’t they be perfect candidates for fusion?
To his surprise, when he checked their compatibility, the system indicated they couldn’t be merged. This puzzled him briefly before understanding dawned. Perhaps they were considered halves not because they originated from the same source technique, but because they complemented each other—one cultivating the body, the other the mind. While slightly disappointed, he didn’t dwell on it.
His attention shifted to his perfect techniques—the Basic Knife Technique and now-perfected Basic Sword Technique. The system showed they were compatible and could be merged immediately. A smile stretched across his face as he contemplated the power such a fusion might yield. fre ewe bnove l.com
Then, a more ambitious idea took root. The system hadn’t specified a limit on how many techniques could be merged at once. What if...
"What if I ask Martial Aunt for more weapon techniques?" he thought, excitement building. "If they’re compatible with sword and knife techniques, I could perfect them all and merge them together."
The possibilities made his pulse quicken. Perhaps he could create something truly extraordinary—something like an invincible weapon master technique that would elevate his combat potential exponentially. With his mid-level enlightenment, perfecting additional techniques would be far easier than before.
His mind made up, Xiang Yu sheathed his sword and turned to Li Yao.
"Let’s take a break," he suggested, his tone casual despite the plans forming in his mind.
Li Yao tilted her head, confusion evident in her expression. "Isn’t it too early?" Their training sessions typically lasted much longer.
"No, it’s just the perfect time," he replied with unusual enthusiasm. "We’re going to prepare a feast."
"A feast?" Li Yao’s eyebrows rose in curiosity. "Is today a special day?"
She mentally reviewed the sect calendar, unable to recall any particular occasion worth celebrating today.
Xiang Yu nodded with apparent pride. "Of course. Today is the day I perfected two techniques."
Li Yao’s eyes sparkled with genuine appreciation. Perfecting even one technique was a monumental achievement for most cultivators—two was truly extraordinary.
"I’ll go capture more wild boars!" she exclaimed, taking off with childlike excitement.
As she disappeared from sight, the smug smile on Xiang Yu’s face revealed his true intentions. He wasn’t actually narcissistic enough to throw a celebration merely for perfecting techniques. His real motivation was far more pragmatic: this would be his first opportunity to prepare seventh-grade spiritual food.
Walking toward the kitchen, he couldn’t suppress a satisfied chuckle. With food of this quality, convincing—or more accurately, bribing—his martial aunt into sharing additional weapon techniques should be effortless. Given her obvious weakness for his cooking, she’d likely agree to part with several techniques.
