Fusion Combat Skill

"Ding-dong!"

"Congratulations, your Experience Points have filled up and you have leveled up four times in a row. Current level: Nine Star Dou Zhe."

As a stream of energy flowed out from the system, four successive sounds like bursting bubbles rang out within Xiao Han's Dantian. His cultivation had entered the realm of a Nine Star Dou Zhe.

"Haha, a First Kill BOSS! A little effort, and I got two treasure chests! Awesome, absolutely awesome!"

Though delighted, Xiao Han did not rush to open the treasure chests. Instead, he eagerly learned his new skill.

"System, learn Blazing Impact, and raise the proficiency of both new skills to the highest level."

After killing the Mammoth Giant Tiger, Xiao Han was overjoyed. Not only had his cultivation improved tremendously, but he had also mastered a Dou Skill: Blazing Impact.

"System, how much Energy Points does it take to fuse Dou Skills?" Xiao Han asked curiously.

"Ding-dong!"

"Replying to Host: the Energy Points consumed in fusing Dou Skills are related to the ranks of the skills being fused. If Host fuses two Yellow Rank Low-Level Dou Skills, only five Energy Points are required. If Host fuses a Yellow Rank Low-Level Dou Skill with a Yellow Rank Mid-Level Dou Skill, fifteen Energy Points are required. If—"

"Enough with the 'ifs.' Fuse Reckless Charge and Blazing Impact directly," Xiao Han commanded. Ever since the system had gained this ability, Xiao Han had never fused Combat Skills before. At the thought of being able to raise the rank of his Combat Skills, he could not help but feel excited.

"Ding-dong!"

"Congratulations, you spent fifteen Energy Points to successfully fuse the Yellow Rank Mid-Level Dou Skill Reckless Charge and the Mysterious Low-Rank Dou Skill Blazing Impact. You have obtained a new Combat Skill: Red Charge."

Red Charge: Mysterious Rank Advanced Combat Skill. After activation, it could build up power and instantly unleash formidable charging force. Furthermore, this skill inherited the burning effect of Blazing Impact. Anyone struck by this skill would have their body engulfed in flames.

"Holy shit, I actually got a Mysterious Rank Advanced Combat Skill!" Xiao Han was overjoyed.

A Mysterious Rank Advanced Combat Skill—if it were sold on the market, it would be worth at least a hundred Gold Coins. It was worth noting that even the eldest Miss of the Gu Clan, one of the Ancient Eight Great Clans, only possessed a Mysterious Rank Advanced Combat Skill in Yan Counterattack.

In other words, as a beginner skill, this Dou Skill was already quite impressive.

"System, raise this skill to the Great Perfection realm," Xiao Han commanded.

"Ding-dong!"

"Congratulations, you spent 1110 Points to successfully raise the Combat Skill—Red Charge—to the Great Perfection realm."

Awooo!

Just then, the leaves among the fallen trees around Xiao Han trembled slightly. Immediately afterward, more than a dozen Fierce Wolves the size of calves sprang out from the thicket.

Good heavens, there were quite a few Fierce Wolves—eighteen in total. They must have caught the scent of blood and entered this clearing.

If it had been anyone else, surrounded by eighteen Fierce Wolves at once, they would probably have been so frightened that their legs shook and they wet themselves. But Xiao Han was different; all he felt was excitement.

"Perfect timing. I'll use you lot to test my new skill!" Xiao Han curled his lips slightly as Dou Qi swirled around his body.

Red Charge

Xiao Han stomped hard with his foot and shot forward like a streak of light. Before anyone could react, he slammed into a Fierce Wolf.

Bang

With a muffled thud, the pitiful Fierce Wolf was sent flying by Xiao Han. It then crashed heavily to the ground, motionless amid a pool of blood.

"Ding-dong!"

"Congratulations, you killed a late-stage Tier 1 Magic Beast—Fierce Wolf. You gained 20 Experience Points and 0.02 Energy Points."

"Ding-dong!"

"Congratulations, you killed a late-stage Tier 1 Magic Beast—Fierce Wolf. A skill book has dropped: Wolf Howl!"

Wolf Howl: Yellow Rank Mid-Level soundwave Dou Skill. After activation, it could unleash a powerful soundwave to attack the enemy, catching them off guard.

"Haha, a skill book dropped! As expected of the invincible system that drops divine items from killing monsters. I love it."

Xiao Han was delighted. A yellow skill book had appeared in his System Inventory.

"Right now, I'm only a Nine Star Dou Zhe, yet this Red Charge can instantly kill Fierce Wolves of nearly the same level. It truly deserves to be called a Mysterious Rank Advanced Combat Skill."

Xiao Han swept his gaze over the dumbfounded Fierce Wolves, his fighting spirit surging. "Hmm, there are still seventeen left. Can't let them go to waste."

Red Charge

Bang

As a red figure darted through the air, the Fierce Wolves, all merely at the late stage of the first tier, could not last even a single exchange against Xiao Han. Every one of them was instantly slain by him.

Before long, Xiao Han had killed all eighteen Fierce Wolves, gaining another substantial 340 Experience Points.

"Huh, could this be a magical core?"

Xiao Han exclaimed in surprise, his gaze falling on the corpse of a Fierce Wolf.

The Fierce Wolf's belly had been struck by Xiao Han's terrifying force, as though it had been run over by a wheel. Near its shattered head lay a red crystal.

"Hehe, not bad. I actually got a blood-element magical core." Xiao Han smiled knowingly.

Killing magical beasts in the Monster Beast Mountain Range came with a certain chance of dropping magical cores. Magical cores were crystallizations of magical beast energy and counted as relatively rare treasures. If one was unlucky, even killing ten thousand magical beasts might not yield a single magical core.

Yet now, after killing only eighteen magical beasts, he had obtained one magical core. More importantly, it was a blood-element magical core.

With God's Perspective, Xiao Han knew that the energy within a blood-element magical core had an exceptionally good effect on strengthening the body.

"This first training session went well."

Xiao Han was quite satisfied with what he had gained today. He placed the magical core into the System Inventory, then grabbed one of the Mammoth Giant Tiger's hind legs with one hand and dragged its corpse out of the fallen-tree thicket.

"Little Fairy Doctor, I'm back. We're having tiger meat tonight."

Xiao Han made his way step by step toward the waterfall. Amid the thunderous roar of the falling water, several hurried eagle cries could clearly be heard. Evidently, their owner was feeling extremely anxious and uneasy at the moment.
