54 I will repeat it

Following the information of Infinite Darkness came a string of knowledge on how to use the method.

The Soul Strengthening method that Infinite Darkness created had the various techniques that Xue Mo knew about Soul Cultivation. Furthermore, combining these techniques and calculating the best combination created the Soul Strengthening method.

When the information entered Xue Mo and Lu Yao's minds, the latter reeled back as the stream of knowledge was too much to handle, giving her a massive headache. However, Xue Mo was used to processing information at very high speeds, which helped him avoid this overload.

After checking the technique and its usage, Xue Mo opened his eyes in surprise. Infinite Darkness took its Soul Power usage into account and made the technique help temper the Soul by letting Infinite Darkness consume the Energy and let it naturally recover.

This would help the Soul upgrade while also increasing the amount of Soul power the user has. Without something like Infinite Darkness to help deplete the Energy this method wouldn't work.

This ability is a passive one that wouldn't need Xue Mo or Lu Yao's attention to use but relied solely on Infinite Darkness. 'Did it do that to show its worth? Was it worried about me using the failsafe, so it tried to make itself more useful?' Xue Mo couldn't help thinking that once he saw what the method does.

Xue Mo's cautiousness was bordering paranoia with these thoughts, Infinite Darkness was trying to help while lessening the burden that Xue Mo and Lu Yao had to deal with, but its intentions made its creator doubt it.

Xue Mo put this in the back of his mind as it wasn't a priority. If Infinite Darkness ever tried going against them, he would destroy it no matter how useful it appeared, so he didn't worry about this.

"What the hell was that?!!" Lu Yao growled after organizing her mind. The overload made her mind buzz as the Soul Strengthening method's amount of info and complexity wasn't low. It was a technique that could temper the soul after all!

"Next time, download the memories slowly and arrange it into a place where they can easily be used and retained. In simpler words, make my perfect memory even more perfect, make it like a library!" In accordance with Lu Yao's condition and because this was a better way to utilize the function, Xue Mo ordered Infinite Darkness.

"Thank you."

"No need for thanks, it was a burden that you aren't used to after all. If my mind weren't used to even higher utilization of thought processing, I would have also been in the same situation as you."

While conversing with Lu Yao, Xue Mo was also checking the new ability and how to use it most efficiently. He suddenly remembered something that made him widen his eyes. Cutting the small talk with Lu Yao, he asked,

"Infinite Darkness, can this Soul Strengthening technique help me unlock the seals on my soul and the bloodline that was locked with it?" Hoping for an answer that satisfied him, he clenched his fists and waited for an answer.

[Calculating the possibility of the usage. Task finished, host, your request is possible. According to the request, changing some of the characteristics of future upgrades of the method would make future add-ons superior.] The ever-loyal Infinite Darkness answered.

Xue Mo unclenched his fist while thinking of possibilities to speed his plans up. With the confirmation that Infinite Darkness gave, he was confident to utilize his locked racial abilities and bloodlines soon. This would significantly augment his powers.

"Scan all my memories and categorize them into different files concerning their aspects—pill concoction, Weapon refinement, Cultivation Technique, etc. After you're done, store this info as a backup in you and upload them into my mind the same way I described before. As for information and knowledge that share similarities, cross-reference them, and put create a new file. Put them into the original and the new file so I can easily access them."

Xue Mo's orders were clear, he saw the potential that Infinite Darkness' learning and processing ability and started utilizing it, and after a minute, Infinite Darkness spoke.

[Task completed. Hosts memories had been arranged into different places that will act as a library for the host to use. The host needs to think of the info, and it will appear naturally in the shape of thought. Modifying the Soul Strengthening method will be completed in a month]

With Infinite Darkness's words, Xue Mo's brain had drastic changes that happen to it. His mind seemed more organized now, and Infinite Darkness had backed it into itself for preservation. That way, if he somehow lost his memories, he would still be able to have them back with an upload from Infinite Darkness.

"So, are you done now?" Lu Yao started feeling ignored. She stood on two paws crossing her arms, pouting. Her eyes warned that if he spoke anything other than 'yes,' he would get it.

"Hmm, oh ya." Xue Mo casually answered while still staring at the black display screen. "You should also do the same. This will help you tremendously in the future, your mind's thinking speed and information utilization will become a great necessity and help once we reach… Never mind that, I will tell you when you are ready. For now, do as I say."

Xue Mo's tone took on a demanding tone, but Lu Yao ignored that, this time only. She was his partner and not his subordinate; he shouldn't order her around. But because she knew he was telling her this for her safety and to help her, she disregarded it.

After she finished ordering Infinite Darkness and had her mind organized as if a considerable weight left her, Lu Yao closed her eyes. She started mumbling, "so this is what I was missing. I see… I can do that in this way too!"

Lu Yao seemed lost in thought as she mumbled away, and after an hour of being in that state, she opened her eyes. At that time, Xue Mo observed her as he saw that she seemed to be excited. Lu Yao seemed about to breakthrough something, and when she opened her eyes, it looked like she succeeded.

As soon as she opened her eyes, Lu Yao took a pen from the table in the room and started drawing with big and heavy strokes. Her paws were firm as she got used to her new body.

Slowly the small patterns started becoming more prominent and connected. They gradually converged and created a complex shape, and when Lu Yao traced the last line, a blue light followed. Mana exuded from the light as it followed a certain pattern, lightning the whole rune up.

Lu Yao had beads of sweat rolling off her once she finished, but her clear eyes and a beautiful smirk on her white-furred face showed how happy she was. It appeared that Lu Yao had again advanced in her Rune Mastery.

Xue Mo watched this from the side as he felt the Mana density in the room increase, and soon after, the blue light dimmed. The Mana in the air started getting purer and purer. What Lu Yao created was a Mana Purifying Formation. This would greatly help in upgrading their Cultivation Technique!

Xue Mo started thinking of the various possibilities that this formation could use and looked at Lu Yao with concentrated eyes.

"I said it before, and I will repeat it, you are amazing!"
