Sharing a Bed

This "Ice Shattering Jade" was a Mysterious Tier Middle Grade Dou Technique he had found in Medicine Elder's collection.

It was a long-range area-of-effect Dou Technique, capable of firing Ice Dou Qi, up to nine shots at most.

Earlier, he had used this Dou Technique to save Xiao Yi Xian.

After the fusion, insights into "Ice Shattering Jade" surfaced in Su Yun's mind. In just a moment, he had absorbed them completely.

Another Dou Technique had been comprehended by Su Yun to major accomplishment.

With enough Magic Cores, Su Yun's crude system once again revealed the tip of its iceberg.

It could let someone cultivate a Dou Technique to major accomplishment in an extremely short time!

Su Yun did not spend too much time on "Ice Shattering Jade" and shifted his target to another Dou Technique.

"Blazing Shield," a Mysterious Rank High Grade Dou Technique. With the body as the center, it formed a fire-attribute Dou Qi protective barrier with no blind spots, and it had an additional defensive effect against fire-attribute attacks.

Without hesitation, he directly fused this Dou Technique. Another Fourth Tier Magic Core disappeared from the System Space.

He had not cultivated this Dou Technique before. It was one he had carefully selected, and according to his plans, it would play a huge role in the future...

After absorbing and digesting this Dou Technique, Su Yun felt a trace of chaos flash through his mind.

The amount of information from three Dou Techniques instantly reaching major accomplishment was not small.

Su Yun stopped the progress of fusing Dou Techniques. In his current state, digesting a few more Dou Techniques would still be very easy.

But he still had to leave time for cultivation.

After cultivating for four hours, Su Yun breathed out, feeling somewhat tired.

He was ready to sleep and rest. People at the Dou Shi stage still needed to sleep.

Just as Su Yun had pulled up the quilt and closed his eyes, someone knocked on his door.

"Knock, knock. Brother, are you asleep?"

At this moment, Xiao Yi Xian's voice came through, carrying a trace of sobbing.

Su Yun got up and opened the door. Tears still shimmered in Xiao Yi Xian's eyes.

"What's wrong, Xian'er?"

Su Yun asked worriedly.

"Xian'er... Xian'er is afraid of the dark. Can Xian'er sleep together with Brother?"

Su Yun did not know whether to laugh or cry. It was normal for children to be afraid of the dark. She had probably woken up halfway through sleeping and frightened herself.

"Come up."

Su Yun carried Xiao Yi Xian onto the bed, without worrying about any distinction between men and women. They were both still children now; those things were still far off.

The night passed without words, and nothing happened.

Su Yun stayed at home for two days without going out.

He spent all this time getting familiar with the Dou Techniques he had newly comprehended.

Although the system could directly let him comprehend a Dou Technique to major accomplishment, its use in actual combat still depended on experience.

The Dou Techniques he had newly comprehended through the system were all ones he had carefully selected.

Among them were some for his own use, and another portion had been prepared for his future aliases.

His "Fennel Cold Art" could separately use the characteristics of two attributes. It would be a real pity not to use it to create aliases.

Today, Su Yun was going to carry out the final fusion. According to his plan, for a short time, he would not need to use Magic Cores on Qi Methods and Dou Techniques.

"System, fuse Ice Spirit Flame Grass and 'Fennel Cold Art.'"

"Ding, fusible plan detected."

"Ding, one Fourth Tier Magic Core needs to be consumed. Fuse?"

"Fuse."

Su Yun grinned. After absorbing the information that surfaced in his mind, he began circulating the once again updated "Fennel Cold Art."

He stretched out his hand. A unique Dou Qi surfaced on his palm. This Dou Qi was a mix of red and white, shockingly the very Dou Qi with both fire and ice attributes that Su Yun had been yearning for.

Su Yun circulated his Dou Qi and struck Eight Extremities Collapse toward the huge boulder ahead.

The huge boulder exploded with a boom, letting out a loud crash.

"This destructive power!"

Su Yun looked with satisfaction at the Dou Qi floating over his hand. With this Dou Qi enhancing him, his destructive power had risen by a whole level!

Moreover, "Fennel Cold Art" had not lost its single fire attribute and ice attribute. Su Yun could transform his own Dou Qi into the previous single attributes.

Su Yun had already thought it through. In the future, he would have at least three aliases!

After calming the surging emotions in his heart, Su Yun changed into the appearance of the middle-aged man from before and walked out the door.

Wutan City, the Xiao Family. This was his target this time.

As for whether he should make contact with the Xiao Family, he had thought about it for a very long time.

Since he had come here today, the final answer naturally needed no further explanation.

According to his plan, his next stop was the Tagor Desert.

Green Lotus Core Flame!

The attraction of Heavenly Flames to an alchemist was too great.

Moreover, Heavenly Flames were related to his future achievements!

Although his "Fennel Cold Art" could reach the Heaven Rank High Grade level through system fusion, aptitude was a huge problem!

The reason Xiao Yan was ultimately able to cultivate into a Dou Di was that "Flame Mantra" was the greatest contributor.

Xiao Yan's aptitude was not bad, but that was only within the Jia Ma Empire. In the Central Plains, there were geniuses everywhere. There were plenty of people with better aptitude than Xiao Yan.

But only Xiao Yan reached the Dou Di realm. The key lay in "Flame Mantra," and in the repeated tempering of his body by Heavenly Flames, which infinitely raised Xiao Yan's aptitude and foundation!

Heavenly Flame body tempering could improve aptitude. This was common knowledge on the continent.

In his view, every time Xiao Yan absorbed a Heavenly Flame, the greatest gain was not the increase in strength, but experiencing Heavenly Flame body tempering and continuously improving his aptitude.

With Xiao Yan's original aptitude, becoming a Dou Zong was simple. With a little opportunity, becoming a Dou Zun was not impossible either.

But if he wanted to become a Dou Sheng under the premise of giving up "Flame Mantra," then unless he obtained the Dou Di Bloodline in Xiao Xuan's hands, it would be impossible.

In the original work, it was precisely the many times of Heavenly Flame body tempering that gave him the talent of a Dou Di.

A path to the heavens lay before him, lay before him. How could Su Yun possibly give it up?

On the Douqi Continent, talent, background, resources, and opportunities determined how high your achievements would be.

His talent was not weak, but it was only about the same as Xiao Yan's.

He had no background, he had no resources, and he had no opportunities either.

If he wanted to become strong, other than relying on his Cheat/System, he only had the advantage of being a transmigrator!

Establishing a relationship with the Xiao Family was one step in his plan to obtain the Green Lotus Core Flame.

Potato had not explained the location of the Green Lotus Core Flame very clearly. It could only be narrowed down through the three approximate locations on the map in Hai Bodong's hands.

But Su Yun was all alone. To find the exact entrance through rough markings on a map was undoubtedly a fantasy.

At a time like this, the importance of influence revealed itself.

The Desert Iron Mercenary Group established by Xiao Yan's two brothers in the Tagor Desert was a very good choice.

He was making contact with the Xiao Family not only for this, but also for Xiao Yan himself.

Anyone who had read the original work would know that Xiao Yan could not be considered a good person, but he was not a bad person either.

He was someone who dared to act and dared to take responsibility, and he repaid every favor.

If one wanted to live well on the Douqi Continent, going it alone simply would not work. Without a certain amount of influence and helpers, when one got surrounded and beaten, there would be no one to call.

When he had taken in Xiao Yi Xian before, he had also had this thought in mind.
