Omni-Mastery

Chapter 452 - 'Fusion' (Incomplete)

[ 'Hammer Arts' (Unique) has been upgraded to 'Hammer Arts' (Epic)! ]

[ 'Hammer Mastery' has leveled up! ]

[ 'Hammer Mastery' has reached Lv.8! ]

'Finally…'

Turning back 'Lightning Cloud' from its hammer phase into the 'Cloud' phase, I let out a sigh of relief as it floated around my head in an amusing way.

Even though I was simply switching my understanding of the technique from the sword to the other weapons using 'Weapon Mastery' as a basis, it wasn't that easy at all, especially this time…

'It seems like grasping 'Darkness Unity' wasn't the only one that had problems.'

Judging from the point that I had to spend two more days to finish leveling up my other weapon masteries, it was pretty obvious that the difficulty of understanding more techniques and incorporating them into my 'Arts' got higher as I advanced more.

'That seems to be especially the case at the essence stage…'

Considering it wasn't even that hard after I broke through the essence stage, it seems that the restriction was placed on advancing within the stage itself.

'Well, it's still only a simple hindrance. Now that I'm done…'

Perhaps that restriction was more effective for others, but the most it did for me was give me a bit of frustration before I overcame it. It was just about time to finish the last two tasks that I had before getting on with the great run!

'Not to mention…'

Just the gains that were obtained from the energy cleansing were good enough for 'emotional compensation', it even allowed the hidden 0.01 stat per leveling addition to appear for the main three 'body' stats.

Furthermore, this wasn't supposed to be the end of it!

[ 'Weapon Mastery' has leveled up! ]

[ 'Weapon Mastery' has reached Lv.8! ]

[ 'Weapon Mastery' Lv.8 (Epic)

Skill type: Passive

*The strength and damage you deal increase by 40% while wielding any type of weapon (Stackable with weapon-specific masteries).

*You acquire an energy ability, 'Complete Harmony'.

*You acquire an energy ability, 'Unification'.

*You acquire an energy ability, 'Fusion'(Incomplete). ]

Hearing the last string of notifications that I was just waiting for, I felt another tinge of slight excitement as I checked the positive change.

Just looking at the strength and damage bonus that both 'Weapon Mastery' and individual masteries were currently at, it was worth celebrating that the bonus damage could be said to have already surpassed the base damage itself at 110%!

After all, these bonuses were the silver linings that would quickly allow me to stand on the same stage as veteran powerhouses, it no longer seemed overboard for me to take part in the crucial 'leader' battle!

Most importantly, the special ability that I expected to surface at the seventh level had finally shown up now that the skill had broken through to the epic grade!

[ 'Fusion' (Incomplete) (Epic)

Description: As mastery over weapons evolves in complete harmony, you begin to touch upon the boundaries of true weapon fusion.

- You can use the 'Fusion' state on two to three weapons, allowing them to stack and breakthrough their limits. ]

'So this is caused by the change in the original 'Weapon Harmony'...?'

Looking at this new energy ability which I found to be very intriguing, I quickly checked the evolved 'Complete Harmony', only to find…

'Only its title is different?'

The description of the skill remained the exact same even though its title has changed. However, as I decided to ignore what the system showed and check the situation myself, I managed to find the true difference!

The weapon energy core within my heart looked several times more resplendent than usual, the energy within no longer seemed to have the intent to fight it out whenever one of them increased their power. Instead, they looked like they were interacting in a peaceful and friendly manner.

[ ? Abilities:

= Energy:

- 'Axe Energy (S+)'

- 'Arrow Energy (S+)'

- 'Hammer Energy (S+)'

- 'Sword Energy (S+)'

- 'Spear Energy (S+)' ]

Moreover, even though the effect of 'Complete Harmony' remained only capable of raising the energy level by one, this was already a great effect at this stage, the difference between S-rank energy and lower with that much according to my own experience!

'I should already get to trying it.'

Still, what occupied my mind the most at this moment was 'Fusion' that resulted from this upgrade of 'Weapon Harmony'.

Without much thought, I already asked the little 'Cloud' to turn into the long sword form as I held it in my hand and started pouring Sword Energy into it.

A few moments later, I took the handle of the now gentle Spear Energy and directly poured it in through the same stream!

'This…'

The next moment, I could only focus on the sword that now held two types of energy in surprise, both weapon energies were simply interfusing together similar to how they acted within my weapon energy core in the state of 'Weapon Harmony'!

As if to prove its worth, my status instantly revealed a change!

[ - 'Sword Energy (SS-)' ]

However, that wasn't the only effect of 'Fusion', I couldn't control myself as I unconsciously started training my 'Swordsmanship', feeling as if the wall that blocked me from advancing was thinning by the second!

'If this is just the effect of two, then what about…'

No longer showing any hesitation, I directly pushed my Halberd/Axe Energy into the sword, feeling the effect of it as if struck by enlightenment!
