The middle-aged man was delighted. It was a
deal. "It's a pleasure to work with you,"
the middle-aged man said, beaming.
After calculating the price, he left the VIP room. A moment later, he returned, holding a card.
"Master, this card contains your entire payment, a total of 2.9 million gold coins."
The middle-aged man smiled at Su Yun.
Su Yun took it, his heart aching. Now it was time to go shopping.
"I also want to buy some herbs and magic cores here. Is that convenient?"
"Yes, of course."
Su Yun then bought several third- and fourth-grade magic cores, as well as herbs for refining second- and third-grade elixirs, at the auction.
Putting everything into his storage ring, Su Yun nodded in satisfaction. Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped.
"Master, wait a minute. I wonder if you're interested in joining our Mitel family?"
the middle-aged man said, smiling.
Su Yun frowned, pondered for a moment, and then understood.
This seemed to be related to the Mitel family's internal promotion system.
Xiao Yan had also faced Ya Fei's attempts to win him over.
"Thank you for your kindness, Boss, but I'm used to being a free spirit, so let's just forget about it," Su
Yun waved his hand and declined. The middle-aged man continued to greet him with a smile; he hadn't expected to succeed on his first try. After leaving the Mitel auction house, Su Yun didn't return home immediately. Instead, he entered the system space in a deserted corner, changed his clothes, and went to the house sale area in Wutan City, where he bought a house in a secluded area before returning home. His previous house was a bit small, with only one room. It wasn't a big deal now, but it would be different in a few years. He planned to cultivate in Wutan City for a few years. His next plans were still too low for a Dou Shi level. Furthermore, the small space made many things difficult to accomplish... After changing back into his old clothes, Su Yun returned home and asked Xiao Yixian to pack his things and begin the move. It didn't take long to pack; he only had a few sets of clothes to do, and Su Yun stored everything in his storage ring. "Storage ring!" This scene happened to be witnessed by Little Medical Fairy. Little Medical Fairy's eyes widened, her face still a bit chubby, looking incredibly adorable. "Brother, that's amazing!" In her young eyes, such high-end items were only available to the wealthy families in the city. Su Yun couldn't help but touch her adorable face. "Do you want one?" "Xian'er, do you have one too?" Little Medical Fairy's face beamed with joy. "Of course." Su Yun pulled out a ring from his arms. He had just bought it at the Mitel Auction House. After this period of training, Little Medical Fairy had already cultivated Dou Qi and reached Dou Qi Level 1. She could also use a storage ring, so when he bought the herbs and magic cores, he also prepared one for her. "Here, let me put it on you." Su Yun placed the storage ring on Little Medical Fairy's left ring finger. He then taught her how to use it. After Little Medical Fairy placed her luggage in the storage ring, Su Yun spoke to her seriously.
"Don't reveal this ring is a storage ring outside, understand?"
Su Yun was right to be cautious. In Wutan City, there weren't many people who possessed storage rings, let alone powerful individuals.
If it were revealed, Little Medical Immortal's strength would be like a child flaunting gold bricks in public.
"Yes, yes!" Little Medical Immortal nodded.
Children in this world often mature early, and Little Medical Immortal understood the principle of not showing off one's wealth.
Su Yun brought Little Medical Immortal to their new home. After a quick cleanup, it was already dark.
The house wasn't huge, but it was much nicer than when they were crammed together.
The child was sleepy, and Little Medical Immortal had already returned to her room.
Su Yun pulled all the magic cores he had acquired today from his storage ring and placed them in the system space.
His eyes burned. Next, it was time to patch it!
Previously, due to a lack of magic cores, his "Burning Cold Art" was only a high-level Yellow rank technique. Now that he had enough magic cores, he naturally needed to enhance it.
Su Yun pondered for a moment and didn't immediately begin fusing. Instead, he combined the skills and combat techniques of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint and Yao Lao, experimenting with the system's fusion function's consumption of these skills.
Previously, he'd struggled with a lack of magic cores, but now things were different. Understanding this would make it easier to collect the corresponding magic cores in the future.
After some experimentation, Su Yun finally figured out the magic cores needed for fusion. There were three types:
Yellow Rank Low, Yellow Rank Intermediate, First-Level Magic Cores,
Yellow Rank High
, Second-Level Magic Cores, Profound Rank Low, Profound Rank Intermediate, Third-Level Magic Cores, Profound
Rank High, Fourth-Level Magic Cores,
Earth Rank Low, Earth Rank Intermediate, Fifth-Level Magic Cores,
Earth Rank High, Sixth-Level Magic Cores, Heaven Rank
Low, Seventh-Level Magic Cores,
Heaven Rank Intermediate, Eighth-Level Magic Cores ,
Heaven
Rank High, and Ninth-Level Magic Cores. This was likely due to the large gap between Heaven Ranks, as the required magic cores jumped a level from low to intermediate.
He didn't have a fifth-level magic core, so today, he could only upgrade his "Burning Cold Art" to Profound Rank High.
Su Yun was quite content; he could always upgrade later, and Profound Rank High wasn't bad either.
The only Earth-level martial arts that appeared in the early stages were probably the Yunlan Sect's signature martial arts.
Advanced Xuan-level martial arts were practically the most advanced martial arts in the Jiama Empire.
Su Yun followed his previous approach of upgrading the "Burning Cold Art" to the advanced Yellow-level.
He found a high-level Xuan-level ice-attributed martial art and upgraded it to the advanced Xuan-level.
Su Yun sat cross-legged and practiced the new "Burning Cold Art," sensing the difference between the two.
An incense stick of time later, Su Yun stood up, a glint in his eyes.
Although his level hadn't changed, the amount and quality of his Dou Qi were far superior to what they had been before.
Now, he wouldn't even need to use 30% of his strength to defeat his former self, who was still practicing a high-level Yellow-level martial art.
Su Yun suppressed his excitement; it wasn't over yet!
"System, fuse the Eight Extreme Collapse with me!"
"Ding, a fusion option has been detected. This requires a fourth-tier magic core. Do you wish to fuse?"
"Fusion!"
A fourth-tier magic core quietly vanished from the system space, and in its place, Su Yun's understanding of the Eight Extreme Collapse surfaced in his mind.
Previously, he could only unleash the fourth level of Dark Energy from the Eight Extreme Collapse, but now he could unleash the eighth level! Once detonated, its power rivaled that of a low-level Earth-tier fighting technique!
Su Yun's expression was filled with excitement. This surge in strength was enough to make even his stubborn personality burst into laughter.
He now possessed the ability to fight across levels. And he no longer had to be as frugal with his Dou Qi as before.
"System, fuse the Ice Shattered Jade with me."
"Ding, a fusion option has been detected. This requires a third-tier magic core. Do you wish to fuse?"
"Fusion!"
