Chapter 00: Transformation
At first, Lian Yun thought that the two sword techniques he had initially chosen were not suitable for merging with the other more than one hundred techniques. So, he selected two new sword techniques to attempt the fusion.
However, the newly merged sword techniques also failed to integrate with the other one hundred ninety-six techniques. Afterward, Lian Yun even tried to merge the first and second sets of techniques he had already fused, but still could not succeed.
Lian Yun did not feel anxious about this; instead, he methodically went through all two hundred sword techniques one by one, discarding those that were impossible to merge. In total, he successfully fused seventy-six brand new sword techniques.
Then, Lian Yun took these seventy techniques and attempted to merge them one by one. Yet, without exception, none of the sword techniques could be fused together.
At this point, Lian Yun had to pause and rethink his approach, even considering a change in strategy.
It was clear that the most basic one hundred eleven sword techniques could be merged, but once fused, they could not integrate with any other technique. What if three sword techniques were merged together into one?
Lian Yun tried this approach as well, but it still did not work.
This so-called attempt sounded simple but actually took Lian Yun nearly three months of time. By now, he had spent a total of a year and a half on this endeavor.
When nothing seemed to work, Lian Yun decided not to force it anymore. Instead, he dismantled the sword techniques back into two hundred sets, planning to seek a new perspective.
Initially, Lian Yun thought of a concept where a set of sword techniques was similar—ten sets of techniques combined to form ten brand new sets, which could then merge into one complete set. This would create a myriad of swords.
However, since merging three sword techniques proved difficult, merging ten at once seemed utterly impossible. Nevertheless, Lian Yun still dedicated half a year to this attempt.
The outcome was still unsuccessful.
At this moment, Lian Yun felt as though he had hit a bottleneck and was unable to find a way forward. Consequently, he suddenly decided to abandon everything and start anew.
Because he realized that his own ideas were misled by the "Ten Thousand Swords Classic," "Ten Thousand People Cultivation," "Thousand People Cultivation," and "Hundred-Person Cultivation."
Lian Yun originally thought that by reversing his approach, he could master the "Ten Thousand Sword Technique." However, he now understood that there was an essential difference between the "Ten Thousand Sword Technique" and the "Ten Thousand Swords Classic."
Understanding this, Lian Yun took hold of Wu Tai and practiced the sword techniques he had learned one by one, free from distractions. He continued to practice and gain insights. Over time, Lian Yun's heart became calm and serene. The myriad sword techniques flowed freely in his mind, while he felt like a spectator observing these techniques.
Gradually, Lian Yun began to gain some insights. He then dismantled the two hundred sets of sword techniques he had previously combined, essentially abandoning nearly two years of effort.
He suddenly realized that the myriad swords he sought were not merely a collection of fixed techniques; they needed to possess the ability to change endlessly.
In other words, if he practiced the sword techniques as he had originally envisioned, the myriad techniques within the "Ten Thousand Sword Technique" would be fixed. What Lian Yun initially imagined was that the "Ten Thousand Sword Technique" could allow for the addition and replacement of sword techniques at will, thereby continuously increasing their power.
Having spent over two years on this journey, Lian Yun decided to pause his work with Le and Yan Capital before starting anew. Yan then began to comprehend intermediate sword techniques, merging any ten techniques into one, creating as many combinations as possible.
Le also merged any ten elementary sword techniques, generating as many combinations as possible.
Although Le and Yan Capital shared nearly identical thoughts due to Lian Yun's identity, there was still a distinction: Yan had been continuously practicing sword techniques. Thus, Yan Clone possessed some inherent understanding of these techniques. Even though Le's clone could use all the sword techniques known to Yan Clone, their power would always be less than that of Yan.
Thus, Lian Yun entrusted the more challenging task of merging intermediate sword techniques to Yan.
Meanwhile, Lian Yun focused on comprehending advanced sword techniques, randomly merging ten different techniques.
As a result, what originally consisted of only tens of thousands of sword techniques began to multiply exponentially through Lian Yun's reckless merging.
It is important to note that the geometric multiples among tens of thousands are virtually infinite. However, this infinity represented a vast growth space for Lian Yun's "Ten Thousand Sword Technique."
At that moment, he didn't need to think too much; he just needed to merge the sword techniques first and then build upon them.
Lian Yun's previous idea of having similar attributes was a kind of routine, and routines formed rules that created boundaries. Now, Lian Yun's merging of sword techniques was random, but it wasn't without its own logic.
The principle was that the fusion of ten basic sword techniques should resemble a single intermediate sword technique as closely as possible. The more similar they were, the better. Thus, the ten sets of merged basic sword techniques could be directly applied to one intermediate sword technique that had been formed through fusion.
Then, in a compatible manner, the intermediate sword technique could be layered onto an advanced sword technique.
Ultimately, the resulting Ten Thousand Sword Technique would be a combination of ten thousand basic sword techniques.
It truly was a complete Myriad Sword Techniques.
However, this was only the first form of the initial Ten Thousand Sword Technique. If in the future, ten sets of merged advanced sword techniques were to be fused again, then this first form would become ten Myriad Sword Techniques.
Perhaps it wouldn't even take ten sets; two sets could suffice. Moreover, if based on an intermediate sword technique, the power of the sword technique would surely skyrocket.
Of course, all of this was a matter for the future. The Ten Thousand Sword Technique had not yet been completed, and Lian Yun wouldn't aim too high or delve too deeply into understanding it just yet.
For now, he only needed to create the Ten Thousand Sword Technique.
Furthermore, once he mastered the Ten Thousand Sword Technique, even if he didn't change his sword techniques later on, continuous practice and comprehension would still enhance their power.
The difficulty of merging advanced sword techniques was the greatest. However, at this moment, Lian Yun changed his previous mindset; he decided to first merge some sword techniques together. With a clear and defined thought process, once these ten advanced sword techniques were successfully fused, it would represent a framework for the Ten Thousand Sword Technique. Achieving mastery over it would merely be a matter of time.
Yet there remained one question: Would the haphazardly merged sword techniques truly suit Lian Yun?
Lian Yun was purposeful in choosing ten sword techniques for fusion. As long as the outcome of the fusion met Lian Yun's expectations, it was acceptable; if not, he would abandon it and select again.
Here, abandoning did not mean discarding, as the advancements of the Ten Thousand Sword Technique could still be utilized in the future.
Thus, after half a year, Lian Yun had fused nearly nine sets of sword techniques before finally finding one that suited him. However, he did not stop there; riding on the current momentum, he pressed on and fused one more set, bringing the total to ten.
This was to prepare in advance for the future advancements of the Ten Thousand Sword Technique.
With a sword technique he liked, Lian Yun's main body began to fuse with Yan, focusing on medium-level sword techniques.
Using a set of sword techniques fused from ten high-level techniques as a benchmark, he sought out ten medium-level techniques that could be compatible with the properties of high-level sword techniques.
With a clear goal and Lian Yun's main body working alongside Yan Clone, the ten sets of fused medium-level sword techniques were quickly identified.
Next came Lian Yun's main body, Yan Clone, and Le Clone, who worked together to fuse one thousand sets of elementary sword techniques derived from ten different sword techniques.
At this point, the Ten Thousand Sword Technique was not just completed; it was ready for action.
