Su Yun's eyebrows shot up. Can living things be scanned?
After some time, a hint of regret flashed across Su Yun's eyes. No, they can't.
Shaking his head, he continued to examine the System.
An update couldn't possibly add just one new function, right?
Have the other three functions been enhanced? Su Yun stroked his smooth chin.
It's possible. Su Yun began to experiment one by one.
After a while, the shock and joy in Su Yun's eyes were unmistakable.
This is a bit too overpowered! Su Yun was no longer in his room but had appeared directly in the courtyard.
In a flash, he silently left the courtyard, moving away from the house.
Fifty meters!
The System's scanning ability had been enhanced to fifty meters!
Even the range from which he could exit the System space had increased to fifty meters!
Such a significant enhancement could be fully utilized in battle! A look of excitement flashed across Su Yun's face.
Using the System space as a stepping stone, he could achieve the effect of spatial teleportation!
Su Yun's figure flashed again, appearing in the hall.
His eyebrows shot up. Hai Bo Dong was standing by the window, looking at the moon.
"Elder Hai."
This startled Hai Bo Dong.
"You little brat, how did you suddenly appear here?"
A hint of shock flashed across Hai Bo Dong's eyes. He had already recovered his Martial Emperor cultivation, yet he hadn't sensed when this kid appeared behind him.
Su Yun smiled slightly but didn't answer Hai Bo Dong's question. Instead, he asked,
"Elder Hai, why are you still up so late?"
Hai Bo Dong crossed his arms.
"The body of a Martial Emperor is already very different from an ordinary person's. We don't need as much sleep as ordinary people. Even at the Great Martial Master level, one can go seven days without eating, drinking, or sleeping, and continue cultivating. You can't be unaware of this, right?"
Su Yun smiled slightly. That's not bad.
As one's Martial Qi cultivation increases, the body transforms in ways that are no longer human.
He no longer sleeps every day, but he doesn't skip his three meals a day.
Food is one of life's great pleasures.
He strives to cultivate to enjoy life and live freely. Besides, if he doesn't eat the meals Xian prepares for him every day, she will be upset.
"In that case, I won't disturb you, Elder Hai." Su Yun smiled and returned to his room.
Hai Bo Dong sighed, placed his hands behind his back, and looked up at the moon, beginning to feel melancholic.
Back in his room, Su Yun continued to explore the changes in the System.
Su Yun focused on the fusion function.
The change in scanning distance was related to recycling, but not to fusion.
After some experimentation, Su Yun found that the fusion function had also undergone significant changes.
Energy Crystal!
Previously, the fusion function could only consume Beast Cores.
Now, it could convert other energy-containing items into Energy Crystals and then consume them! The energy consumption of the conversion function was also settled using Energy Crystals.
Su Yun's eyes lit up. This update is great. Now he wouldn't be limited to collecting Beast Cores.
Energy Crystals, like Beast Cores, were divided into ranks from one to nine, with one first-rank Beast Core equivalent to one first-rank Energy Crystal.
Moreover, lower-rank Beast Cores and Energy Crystals could be converted into higher-rank Energy Crystals.
Of course, the conversion ratio wasn't one-to-one.
Two first-rank Beast Cores could be converted into one second-rank Energy Crystal.
Three second-rank Beast Cores could be converted into one third-rank Energy Crystal.
Four third-rank Beast Cores could be converted into one fourth-rank Energy Crystal.
And so on.
Noticing this conversion condition, Su Yun nodded slightly. Not bad.
The higher the rank, the greater the energy difference between Beast Cores.
Dark, but acceptable.
However, Su Yun's face darkened immediately after that.
"System, convert a sixth-rank Beast Core into a fifth-rank Energy Crystal."
"Ding, a sixth-rank Beast Core can be converted into two fifth-rank Energy Crystals. Do you wish to proceed with the conversion?"
Su Yun's face was filled with black lines, as he seemed to have thought of a possibility.
"System, convert a fourth-rank Beast Core into a third-rank Energy Crystal."
"Ding, a fourth-rank Beast Core can be converted into two third-rank Energy Crystals. Do you wish to proceed with the conversion?"
Su Yun tested again.
"System, convert a second-rank Beast Core into a first-rank Energy Crystal."
"Ding, a second-rank Beast Core can be converted into two first-rank Energy Crystals. Do you wish to proceed with the conversion?"
Dark, really damn dark!
From now on, I'll use you to describe unscrupulous entrepreneurs!
Su Yun abandoned the idea of converting a sixth-rank Beast Core into a fifth-rank Energy Crystal and decided not to fuse an Earth Rank Martial Technique.
The System understands capital.
It's really too exaggerated. Only a fool would do this. The higher the rank of the Beast Core, the more it loses.
Su Yun shook his head and immersed himself in the System again.
"System, convert a fourth-rank Beast Core into a fifth-rank Energy Crystal."
"Ding, it requires five fourth-rank Beast Cores. Do you wish to proceed with the conversion?"
"Convert."
"Ding, insufficient fourth-rank Beast Cores in System space. Conversion failed."
Hearing this, Su Yun's eyes widened. What the hell?
Insufficient fourth-rank Beast Cores?
Su Yun quickly checked the Beast Cores in the System space.
Two fourth-rank Beast Cores lay there alone.
After a moment of thought, Su Yun understood. When he was refining the Green Lotus Heart Fire to enhance his physical body, he had consumed a total of nine fourth-rank Beast Cores.
And he had only purchased eleven fourth-rank Beast Cores in Blackrock City.
Su Yun rubbed his forehead and spent eight third-rank Beast Cores to convert them into two fourth-rank Energy Crystals.
Only then did he successfully convert one fifth-rank Energy Crystal.
Finally, he was about to acquire his first Earth Rank Martial Technique!
A hint of excitement flashed across Su Yun's eyes.
"System, fuse the Intermediate Earth Rank Martial Technique 'Flowing Flame Dragon Slash' with me!"
"Ding, the Intermediate Earth Rank Martial Technique 'Flowing Flame Dragon Slash' will be fused with the System, requiring one fifth-rank Energy Crystal. Do you wish to proceed with the consumption?"
"Consume!"
Instantly, a massive amount of information flooded Su Yun's mind.
Fortunately, his soul power was strong, even reaching the level where he could refine Sixth Rank Pills. Otherwise, mastering an Intermediate Earth Rank Martial Technique all at once would have been quite challenging.
After half an hour, Su Yun opened his eyes, a fiery glint flashing in them.
Previously, when he fought opponents of higher ranks, he could often suppress them with his Mystic Rank cultivation techniques and martial techniques, but it took some time to determine the winner and he couldn't defeat them immediately.
But now, with a fully mastered Earth Rank Martial Technique at his disposal, he could deliver a fatal blow as soon as he found an opening!
Su Yun thought of the Fifth Rank Gale Tiger that had attacked him in the Beast Mountain Range.
Ha, your days are numbered!
The next day.
Su Yun called Hai Bo Dong over.
"You little brat, what do you want this time? If it's another cleaning job, I'll teach you a lesson!"
Hai Bo Dong's eyes were full of threats, clearly still upset about what happened yesterday.
Su Yun chuckled and said,
"Sorry, Elder Hai.
Rest assured, this time it's serious business."
Hearing this, Hai Bo Dong relaxed.
"Well, what is it today?"
