Chapter 200: Character Technique (2)
A short while later.
Su Yu was brought into a large room. The room looked rather crude and ordinary.
There were some bookshelves in the room. The bookshelves were filled with all sorts of willpower texts. Some were made of bone, some were made of jade, and some were made of hide.
When Chen Yong saw Su Yu looking at the texts, he smiled, "These texts aren't the core of this room. They are merely some unimportant books. Zhou Pingsheng and his people have no way of accessing the true core of this place."
Suddenly, the space in front of him lit up brightly. One golden Divine Character after another appeared out of nowhere. Su Yu glanced at the Divine Characters and couldn't help but be impressed. There were dozens of them.
Before long, the Divine Characters started melting. Yes, they were melting away. They melted and fused into one. In the blink of an eye, a key appeared in front of Chen Yong. Holding the key in his hand, Chen Yong waved it at the wall in front of him.
Su Yu couldn't resist rubbing his eyes when he saw what happened next. The wall had...melted into nothingness.
Chen Yong's voice rang out, "Come on. Get in."
Su Yu followed Chen Yong forward in a daze. Behind the wall was yet another room.
When he looked behind after entering the room, the previous wall had reappeared. The First Fusion Hall was no longer visible. They had entered a different room.
Bai Feng grinned and asked, "Are you surprised? This is the real First Fusion Hall. Only those from our multiple character faction can enter. The other room is merely a cover."
Su Yu nodded. He was so impressed that he didn't even react to Bai Feng's smugness.
He looked around and noted that this was a sealed room.
At around 40 square meters, it wasn't too big.
Several bookshelves could be seen in the room as well. But apart from these bookshelves, he couldn't see anything else. He failed to see what was so special about the room.
"Look at the walls." Bai Feng said, "Those books aren't the core of the First Fusion Hall. It's the walls. These walls can be considered a unique myriad race willpower text. Or to be precise, they are walls made of countless willpower texts combined together."
Chen Yong said, "Su Yu, like I said, the multiple character faction focuses on the fusion of Divine Characters. Like acupoints, we can join all our characters to form a technique. That is the so-called fusion of our faction.
"Our characters are connected in a systematic manner, not random. For example, after opening 108 acupoints, the War God Art would connect your acupoints in a specific manner instead of in a random manner. Without a proper cultivation method or martial technique, you won't be able to properly display your strength even with 1,800 acupoints."
With the explanation of Chen Yong and Bai Feng, Su Yu finally understood what the multiple character faction was all about. He also finally understood the purpose of the First Fusion Hall. This was where he would pick his path.
After picking his path, he would need to form a frame for his future character technique in his sea of willpower. In the future, he would slowly fill the frame with his Divine Characters, slowly completing his character technique.
As part of the explanation, Bai Feng even demonstrated his character technique to Su Yu.
It was a sword.
A short and tiny sword.
"I named this the Dragon Slaying Sword..."
Su Yu resisted the urge to roll his eyes. What a childish name.
Bai Feng did not care about Su Yu's reaction. He continued explaining, "During the Mental Tempering Stage, I formed the frame of my technique. Subsequently, I formed 12 Divine Characters and filled them into the frame to stabilize it. With 12 Divine Characters, my Dragon Slaying Sword was completed, granting me incomparable offensive strength."
"Generally, a single frame would need at least 10 Divine Characters for the formation to be considered successful. Otherwise, the frame would lack stability and collapse upon reaching the Skysoar Realm. That is also why our faction requires our members to form at least 10 Divine Characters before the Skysoar Realm.
"My Dragon Slaying Sword can only stay stable with 12 Divine Characters. After reaching the Skysoar Realm, I formed 6 more Divine Characters. In total, I had added 18 Divine Characters into the frame, allowing me to defeat Hu Wensheng with one move."
Su Yu finally understood.
He needed to form a frame during the Mental Tempering Stage and the frame would need some points of support to keep it stable. And Divine Characters would act as these points of support.
Only after supplying the frame with its points of support could one enter the Skysoar Realm. As for the remaining required Divine Characters, one could always slowly add them in later. Without proper points of support, the frame would break apart the moment one entered the Skysoar Realm.
And at the Skysoar Realm, with the materialization of willpower, one's sea of willpower would no longer be as malleable as before. Thus, forming a new frame at the Skysoar Realm was impossible.
After the explanation, Chen Yong solemnly said, "A frame is not something you form casually. These walls are basically unique willpower texts that serve as a unique guide for the formation of a character technique frame.
"When you send your willpower into a wall later, a character technique suitable for you would form in your sea of willpower. You would be able to start filling the frame of that technique up to form a complete character technique."
Bai Feng added, "Different character techniques require different numbers of support points. It could be as low as 10 support points, which means you only need 10 Divine Characters for it. It could also be more, like 13 or maybe 14 Divine Characters, but remember this. Just because the technique requires more Divine Characters does not mean that the technique is better."
"Remember to assess your capabilities accordingly before making your choice. At the Mental Tempering Stage, you will have limited willpower. You won't be able to complete a character technique that requires too many support points. If you end up getting a character technique like this, it would be troublesome. You might end up stuck in the Mental Tempering Stage for years.
"For example, if you end up forming a sword that requires 50 support points, you would have to form 50 Divine Characters during the Mental Tempering Stage. And not every Divine Character might be suitable for your character technique, so you still need to aim for specific Divine Characters as well. How many years would that take?
"Even if you do manage to accomplish that feat, would your willpower be strong enough to take this burden at the Mental Tempering Stage? Even if your willpower is strong enough, 30 years might have passed since then. Sure, you are unrivaled within the Skysoar Realm. But what's the point if all your peers have reached the Mountainsea Realm by then?"
Chen Yong agreed, "Your teacher is right. You need to make your choice according to your own capability. Do not only aim for a high number. You only need to pick a frame that you can confidently complete. If you really want a character technique with more Divine Characters, you can always grow your character technique by filling it with more Divine Characters at the Skysoar Realm."
Su Yu asked curiously, "Martial Uncle, Teacher, as long as I am picking a frame I can complete, would higher support points be better?"
Chen Yong smiled and said, "Yes. There are some advantages to that. For example, your teacher's Dragon Slaying Sword needs 12 Divine Characters as the support. With 12 support points, his character technique is naturally more stable than one with only 10 support points. It also allows him to add more abilities to his character technique. If a character technique is filled with 10 support points, one would only be able to add 10 abilities to the technique. But your teacher's technique can house 12 abilities.
"The abilities of the Divine Characters used as the support points of your character technique can be transferred to your character technique, allowing them to exist as the basic abilities of your character technique. For example, abilities such as sharpness, concealment, armor piercing, blood absorption, baleful aura, explosion, burning, and so on."
Bai Feng interrupted, "Offensive character techniques generally focus on strengthening their attacks. The basic abilities of my Dragon Slaying Sword are all offense oriented. For offensive character technique cultivators, sharpness is an ability almost all of us would pick. The second most popular ability is the strength ability. It will give the technique more destructive power. Agility is also a useful ability as it allows you to attack faster."
"..."
With Bai Feng's explanation, Su Yu understood even more.
"Teacher, do you mean that if I put all three of my Divine Characters into a character technique, the technique would possess abilities such as illusion, blood absorption, lightning, and killing intent?"
"Yes."
Bai Feng nodded, "Exactly. All three of your Divine Characters can be considered offensive characters. They are quite suitable for the path of offense. Of course, your Divine Characters won't be stuck the moment they are fused into the technique. You can always take off these characters to use them independently. Generally, you only use your character technique as the trump card that will kill once unleashed. The drain on your willpower would be too heavy if you intend to use it for normal combat. In other situations, it is more advisable to use your characters independently and adjust accordingly depending on the combat situation."
"I see."
Su Yu finally understood. The so-called character technique was similar to cultivation methods and martial techniques.
For cultivation methods and martial techniques, the number of required acupoints would determine their strength. A character technique sword requiring 15 Divine Characters would possess 15 abilities. In most situations, this sword would be stronger than a sword with 10 Divine Characters. n.-o/-v/-e)/l//b--1-.n
Su Yu looked at the walls around him. To his left was a wall with defensive character techniques. To his right was the wall with balanced character techniques. And in front of him was the wall with offensive character techniques.
These walls were made by the predecessors of the multiple character faction to help the newcomers of the faction lay down their foundation.
"Teacher, Martial Uncle, I'll be starting."
Su Yu wasted no time and stood facing the offensive wall and sent his willpower over.
When Su Yu entered the state of concentration, Bai Feng inhaled deeply and transmitted his voice to Chen Yong, "Senior Brother, what do you think he will form?"
"That depends on him." Chen Yong said, "There are many things in there. What he gets will depend on what he can see, what he can catch, and what he can form. His luck and talent will play a big role here. There is nothing we can do."
He smiled and continued, "Back then, the frame of your Dragon Slaying Sword required 12 support points. That is already a very decent character technique. The path of offense has always been harder than the path of defense. I will be satisfied if Su Yu can form a frame with the same number of support points as you."
Bai Feng rolled his eyes. He then sighed, "I told him several times to not get too greedy. Having a higher number might not necessarily be a good thing. But I'm worried that this brat would disregard our advice. If he ends up picking one with too many support points, it would get troublesome."
Chen Yong curiously said, "You're so confident in him? Most people won't be able to form a frame with many support points even if they can encounter one. After failing, he would naturally pick one with fewer support points."
"You don't understand."
Bai Feng sighed. He wanted to say that his senior brother was too naive. This brat was an expert face slapper. He had lost count of the number of times he had told Su Yu that something was impossible only for that brat to turn around and slap him across his face.
Nowadays, he no longer dared to make any judgment about his student in advance.
"I have a feeling he might end up forming a character technique with more than 15 support points."
Chen Yong looked at Bai Feng curiously. His junior brother was really confident.
"Back then, Jia only formed one with 10 support points. She had also entered the academy with a high-high evaluation."
Bai Feng sighed again, "It's different. It's different! Even high-high students can differ from each other!"
Chen Yong couldn't help but to laugh. Bai Feng looked really troubled here.
It was clear that Su Yu had probably shocked Bai Feng too much previously.
"Sure. Let me take a look at just what manner of character technique he would end up forming."
"Just wait and see."
Bai Feng rubbed his chin. Was he still underestimating Su Yu when he made an estimate of 15 support points?
Sigh. It was really hard being the teacher of such an unpredictable student.

In most situations, this sword would be stronger than a sword with 10 Divine Characters. n.-o/-v/-e/l//b--1-.nSu Yu looked at the walls around him. To his left was a wall with defensive character techniques. To his right was the wall with balanced character techniques. And in front of him was the wall with offensive character techniques. These walls were made by the predecessors of the multiple character faction to help the newcomers of the faction lay down their foundation. "Teacher, Martial Uncle, I'll be starting." Su Yu wasted no time and stood facing the offensive wall and sent his willpower over. When Su Yu entered the state of concentration, Bai Feng inhaled deeply and transmitted his voice to Chen Yong, "Senior Brother, what do you think he will form?" "That depends on him." Chen Yong said, "There are many things in there. What he gets will depend on what he can see, what he can catch, and what he can form. His luck and talent will play a big role here. There is nothing we can do." He smiled and continued, "Back then, the frame of your Dragon Slaying Sword required 12 support points. That is already a very decent character technique. The path of offense has always been harder than the path of defense. I will be satisfied if Su Yu can form a frame with the same number of support points as you." Bai Feng rolled his eyes. He then sighed, "I told him several times to not get too greedy. Having a higher number might not necessarily be a good thing. But I'm worried that this brat would disregard our advice. If he ends up picking one with too many support points, it would get troublesome." Chen Yong curiously said, "You're so confident in him? Most people won't be able to form a frame with many support points even if they can encounter one. After failing, he would naturally pick one with fewer support points." "You don't understand." Bai Feng sighed. He wanted to say that his senior brother was too naive. This brat was an expert face slapper. He had lost count of the number of times he had told Su Yu that something was impossible only for that brat to turn around and slap him across his face. Nowadays, he no longer dared to make any judgment about his student in advance. "I have a feeling he might end up forming a character technique with more than 15 support points." Chen Yong looked at Bai Feng curiously. His junior brother was really confident. "Back then, Jia only formed one with 10 support points. She had also entered the academy with a high-high evaluation." Bai Feng sighed again, "It's different. It's different! Even high-high students can differ from each other!" Chen Yong couldn't help but to laugh. Bai Feng looked really troubled here. It was clear that Su Yu had probably shocked Bai Feng too much previously. "Sure. Let me take a look at just what manner of character technique he would end up forming." "Just wait and see." Bai Feng rubbed his chin. Was he still underestimating Su Yu when he made an estimate of 15 support points? Sigh. It was really hard being the teacher of such an unpredictable student.
