The Solemn Philosopher

Tang Junxin stared at Fang incredulously. Swallowing his saliva, he let Fang entire the carriage before him as the chauffeur closed his mouth in shock.

The carriage turned around and started moving in the direction of the palace after the duo had gotten on. Gazing out of the window, Fang stared at the wondrous sights that passed by. He was not inclined to talk as Tang Junxin would definitely ask him all kinds of questions that he would not be able to answer. Simply gazing outside, he took in the peaceful scenery.

[Naive Painter's Cultivation Style acquired]

[Would host like to integrate the method?]

Fang looked at the notifications in his mind. He struggled to suppress his excitement, although a mysterious smile did appear on his face.

'Yes,' he thought.

[Agreed. Integrating now.....Acquired. As long as the host continues to observe and respect nature, his cultivation will increase. It will increase further if the host creates their own version of this natural beauty and animates it.]

Fang frowned. So he had to be a painter now? Although it might not be ideal with the amount of time he spent cultivating through gardening and simply being himself, he would now have to make time for painting. This would make his schedule somewhat busier, but he supposed that he could get it done.

[Would host like to learn more about cultivation merges?]

Fang raised his eyebrows.

'Yes,' he thought.

[When host acquires several different cultivation methods that fit nicely with each other, the host will be given the opportunity to merge these systems. This will create a much stronger type of cultivation method and reduce the amount of time that the host spends in doing different tasks.]

'I see. So I can merge cultivation methods and make it easier on myself to cultivate. Interesting...'

'Agreed. What can I merge right now?'

[Host can merge the Naive Painter, Nihilist's Acceptance, and True Universal Essence cultivation methods can be merged. Would host like to merge them now?]

'Yes,'

[Merging. Solemn Philosopher's Cultivation created. Would host like to see stats?]

'I would,'

[Solemn Philosopher's Cultivation]

[Cultivates by simply being who you are and expressing your essence in everything you do]

[A variant merged cultivation style that allows you to cultivate faster with much efficiently compared to the other styles]

[Attributed evenly with all elements and styles]

[Enhances the effect and power of the Twin Universal Palm Technique]

Fang stared at the notifications with joy in his face. He couldn't have expected that such a cultivation method would fall into his hands. It was truly a gem and he wouldn't exchange it for the world.

Smiling, he gazed at Tang Junxin. The latter looked puzzled as to the slew of rapid emotions of Fang's face.

"Tang Junxin, when will we arrive?" he asked.

Breathing a sigh of internal relief, Tang Junxin answered.

"Revered Master, we shall arrive in a few minutes. Please bear with us," he requested.

Fang smiled and nodded. He gazed at Tang Junxin's face. Tang Junxin's face seemed somewhat troubled. Lines ran through his forehead as cracks ran through a cliff.

"Is there something bothering you? Can I help?" he asked.

Tang Junxin's head snapped up as he stared at Fang. This esteemed master was going to provide help for his problems! He could not let this opportunity go to waste!

"Well you see...I've been having some trouble master...my cultivation is facing a breakthrough right now..." Tang Junxin began.

Fang smiled.

"Of course I can help you. Here," he spoke.

Stretching his arm out, he flicked his finger. There were a series of successive booms as Tang Junxin yelled.
