Late at night.

Source Soul Research Center. It was brightly lit.

In the data room, Wu Lan, Wu Jia, and Hu Qiusheng were busy going through one book after another.

They were extremely busy, but this was also very enjoyable. This felt very fulfilling. They were working hard together on a grand undertaking. Naturally, Wu Lan was probably the only person with that thought, but the others were working just as hard as her.

"I found one!" Wu Lan suddenly exclaimed in joy and said, "Senior Sister, note this down. According to this book, the celestial dragon race was born as Great Strength cultivators with 144 acupoints opened. It will take between six months to a year to fuse their acupoints and reach the Infinite Strength Realm. There must be a reason for them to finish fusing 144 acupoints so fast."

A yawning Wu Jia walked over to record it down. She was quite impressed. Wu Lan had been reading until now. Was she not tired? Wu Jia herself was so tired she felt like she was going to die. At this point, the mere sight of a book was enough to give her a strong desire to sleep.

"Celestial dragon race..." While recording the information, Wu Jia yawned. She said, "We already found 18 races with potentially useful cultivation methods. As for the human race, there are 37 potentially useful cultivation methods that can suppress the repelling force of acupoints. But there is no way for us to get the cultivation methods of the 18 races...We will need Junior Brother Hu's help with this."

Hu Qiusheng nodded before returning to his book.

Suddenly, Jiang Mu said, "I remembered something! Record this down. I read from a book called the Myriad Realm Travel Notes. According to the book, the natural state of all living beings is the state of one acupoint. But after birth, that one acupoint would separate into numerous acupoints. Thus, the myriad races all pursue the act of fusing acupoints into one final acupoint. That is applicable for Sunmoons or even Invincibles."

He concluded, "According to this saying, these acupoints used to be one. But after separating from each other, they started repelling each other like magnets. That is the origin of the repelling force."

Wu Jia hurriedly recorded that and asked, "Does the book provide a way to remove that repelling force?"

Jiang Mu's words made a lot of sense. But at present, they simply did not have proof for anything. Natural state of one acupoint? Nobody could remember having one acupoint. And nobody had raised that speculation before. Perhaps only these random travelogs would mention such a speculation.

Jiang Mu tried to recall what he read and said, "I don't remember it too well. But...hmm...oh, the book also mentioned that since the acupoint has separated into so many acupoints that repelled each other akin to the two poles, we should look for the connecting point of the two poles..."

"What does that mean?"

Wu Jia was confused.

Hu Qiusheng wasn't confused. He said, "He meant that a single block has broken into pieces. So now, we need to find the corresponding piece before we can bring all the pieces back together..."

"I still don't understand."

Wu Jia muttered. At this time, Su Yu walked into the room. With a smile, he casually picked up a plank and broke it apart.

Then, he picked up two pieces that could be linked together and said, "It's basically the sas a jigsaw puzzle. Jiang Mi was basically saying that after the pieces separated from each other, you won't be able to solve the jigsaw puzzle by randomly putting the pieces together. Instead, the more pieces you put together, the harder it will be to complete the puzzle. You need to do things in order to slowly restore the original appearance of the puzzle. Only then can you restore the whole thing."

He then brought the broken pieces together before tossing the completed plank over to his senior sister.

He looked at Jiang Mu and said, "Jiang Mu, that is a very interesting speculation. It has givena new idea related to the source soul acupoint. What if the one original acupoint has actually been broken into numerous acupoints and apertures? Would this source soul acupoint be the core of these broken pieces?"

Su Yu picked up another plank and grinded it into a circle. Then, he drew a red dot in the middle and said, "This is the core. Assthat this is the source soul acupoint we're looking for. One one side are the source acupoints and on the other side are the soul apertures.

"If both source acupoints and soul apertures are a part of this thing that has been separated into two poles, this source soul acupoint will be the connecting node, the core, and the key of the unification of all acupoints and apertures."

Hu Qiusheng's eyes lit up as he said, "Do you mean that in the future, this source soul acupoint might becthe common path all cultural researchers and warriors take on their way to the Invincible Realm? Or to be precise, this is the path of unifying the two cultivation systems!"

Su Yu nodded, "That is possible. And if that is really true, a Sunmoon can first fuse all their acupoints into one and their apertures into one as well before finding the source soul acupoint. With the source soul acupoint, they can fuse the acupoint and aperture to step right into the Invincible Realm? At that point, perhaps the Invincibles will no longer be classified as warriors or cultural researchers."

The more Hu Qiusheng listened to this theory, the more believable it seemed to him. He said, "It is very possible that this is true. But we don't have a way to prove it. In fact, there are currently barely any cultivators around who have reached the Sunmoon Realm in both willpower and physical cultivation. Thus, nobody can prove this theory for us."

Su Yu smiled, "There is no rush."

It was still too early to worry about that.

Su Yu moved on from the topic and said, "Record all these discoveries and our discussion as well and seal the records. These will be our top secret records. Forget about the source soul acupoint for now. How's the progress with the acupoint fusion method?"

Wu Jia handed over the things she had recorded. After taking a look, Su Yu could only admit that numbers could also be a form of strength. That was impressive! In a single night, they had discovered so many races and cultivation methods that might help with acupoint fusion.

After thinking for a bit, Su Yu looked around and asked, "Where's Xia Huyou?"

"He was sleepy so he went to bed."

Wu Jia sounded somewhat resentful when she said that. Inwardly, she was grumbling that the fatty was too lazy. No wonder that fellow was so fat.

Su Yu smiled and called Xia Huyou with his communicator instead of using the voice transmission talisman.

A helpless voice rang out, "It's so late. Why are you not sleeping?"

"I have a list for you. Buy the blood essence of all the races on the list tomorrow. I don't need the blood essence to be at a high level. Great Strength or Infinite Strength blood essence will be acceptable."

"Will this be expensive?"

"I don't know. You can check the list to get an idea of the value."

Su Yu was telling the truth. He did not know the price for all the blood essence he wanted, but he was sure that it wouldn't be cheap. After all, even the celestial dragon race was on the list. That was a top 100 race. Or to be precise, that was a top 10 race. The dragon race was merely a collective way to address a group of draconic races. And as a whole, the dragon race was a top 10 race.

Meanwhile, the celestial dragon race was one of the three strongest sub-races in the dragon race. This was an extremely powerful race.

Su Yu wasn't even sure if they would be able to get scelestial dragon blood essence. In any case, he had never consumed the blood essence of this race before. And he couldn't recall if he had ever been killed by this race in his dreams before.

He already had the pages of sof the races on the list open. But due to a lack of blood essence, he had yet to activate their abilities. Thus, he still needed more blood essence. Additionally, he also needed to work on deciphering the pages he had activated.

After ending the call, he said to the others, "Everyone, check the racial abilities and cultivation methods of these races for me..."

He then complained, "It has been so many years. Why has nobody in the academy created a translating device that can translate the languages of the myriad races?"

If there was something like that, he would be able to easily find out more about the racial abilities and cultivation methods on the pages he had activated.

"For something unrelated to willpower or characters, you need someone from a scientific research academy to do it." Hu Qiusheng explained, "Our academy will generally not bother with the production of these devices. That is an entirely different field."

Su Yu grumbled, "But isn't a translating device something we need? There are so many races and languages out there. Are we supposed to rely on those old, pedantic scholars each twe need something translated?"

"Not really." Hu Qiusheng explained, "In truth, our academy simply doesn't view this matter with that much importance. According to the higher ups, it is better for cultivators to master those languages themselves. That will help with the learning process when one is cultivating the methods and techniques of those races. Relying on a translating device will not be the sas truly knowing the language. Swords will change in meaning after translation."

"When it comes to cultivation, inaccurate translation can be very dangerous. A single mistake might result in a massive error during cultivation."

Su Yu could understand that. Cultivating was very different from any other task. A slight mistake might result in the loss of lives.

In that case, it wasn't that the academy was too lazy to create such a device. Rather, they had their own considerations and worries about the accuracy of such automatic translation devices.

But Su Yu continued complaining, "Even if they don't translate cultivation methods, they can still have a translating device for sbasic, everyday words, right? That shouldn't cause too big of an issue even if there is a translation mistake. For these everyday words, we only need to get the general gist of what the words mean. Is there something like that out there?"

"I think so?" Hu Qiusheng was unsure.

Jiang Mu answered, "Yes, there are. Do you need one? I can get one for you."

"That would be great!"

Su Yu was overjoyed. Was there really something like that out there? Awesome! A device like that would make things easier for him. At the very least, he would be able to translate the words on the pages he had activated.

As for the pages he had yet to open, well, there wasn't anything he could do about them for now. Once again, he was full of praise for the power of quantity. Just look at how a solution was offered right after he voiced a problem.

If he was working alone, just how long would it take for him to derive the cultivation methods he needed?

"Everyone has worked hard. You should take a rest now and continue tomorrow."

Wu Jia was relieved to hear that, but Wu Lan was unhappy. "Look at the time! The Breakthrough Team is in charge of blazing through difficulties. Are we supposed to bow to a small obstacle like sleep? Continue!"

"..."

Silence descended.
