Otherworldly Affairs Office-Chapter 758 Fusion Technique Part 1 (Seeking Subscription)

In the days that followed, all members of the Awakening Domain, under the baton of Lin Junzhao, methodically embarked on the deep development of their abilities and the fusion use of their domains. As Lin Junzhao had previously stated, this period of training was unbearable for everyone, not only were they mentally tormented, but even their daily lives were greatly affected.

According to Lin Junzhao's methods in the Awakening Domain, everyone was required to fully activate their abilities around the clock. Maintaining this state for a day was manageable, but over time, the side effects quickly appeared: under extreme mental fatigue, the domain would go out of control. Often, when a group was eating, they would suddenly feel the gravity around them increase, and everyone would be pressed to the ground, scraping along it, with Xia Yu, on the brink of collapse, continuously apologizing to everyone. Or during training, a slight mishap would result in a series of explosions, thunder strikes, and other such tragedies occurring frequently.

Under such high-pressure training intensity, it wasn't until half a month later that this situation improved. Being immersed in the domain state around the clock quickly accustomed all team members to the way of fighting within the domain. After completing the initial integration, the entire team quickly engaged in joint combat exercises.

This training, hosted by Lin Junzhao, continued for another half month before being called off by her. Lin Junzhao privately summoned Gu Shenghui and instructed, "Now that the development of the domain is becoming increasingly mature, the next step is the integration phase. But I need to take Pei Yan and Pei Jin with me to prepare another separate Jiezhi Space for special training."

"Why? They are the main forces of the team match. Losing two people at once, won't it affect the training?" Gu Shenghui frowned slightly and asked in confusion.

"The competition starts in just two weeks, and since we already know the opponent will send two Children of Origin, special training for them is very necessary. Don't worry, this training will only last a week; I'll release them back for the final joint training with the other three. The timing should work out." After spending time together, Lin Junzhao knew Gu Shenghui was a very pragmatic person, so she wasn't displeased by his questioning and responded candidly.

"Then I have no issues. The Jiezhi Space is ready-made, and I'm already familiar with the general training process. I entrust the Pei Family Siblings' training here to you." Having heard Lin Junzhao's explanation, Gu Shenghui had no further objections. He reached into his ring and handed a Jiezhi Space to Lin Junzhao for safekeeping.

"Alright, leave it to me!"

Inside the Jiezhi Space, Pei Yan and Pei Jin stood within a temporary forest, looking at each other in confusion, unsure of what to do. Eventually, Pei Yan spoke first, "Big sister, you brought us here from the training ground, what kind of special training are you planning to do?"

"Big sister" was Pei Yan's special term for Lin Junzhao. Upon hearing his call, a voice rang simultaneously in the minds of Pei Yan and Pei Jin, saying, "I'm bringing you here to conduct joint special training for you both. Pei Yan, I know you're unhappy about me choosing your sister to compete, but you have to understand that she was also one of my candidates and not a little woman in need of your protection! You can't stand in front of her forever; this is harming her rather than helping. As my candidate, she is destined to face wave after wave of challenges. But you? Ever since you found out your sister is an ability user, in battles big and small, you've gone ahead, not giving her any chance for real combat. What if she meets a strong enemy someday when you're not there?"

Hearing this, Pei Yan looked at Pei Jin in embarrassment, knowing that what Lin Junzhao said was correct but still found it hard to accept, railing, "I know, but besides being your candidate, she's my sister, my family. Just like you said she's been secretly protecting me for over a decade; isn't it time for me to protect her! I think I'm capable of protecting my family!"

"That's your business, and you seriously underestimate your sister. Don't forget, in terms of effort, I've put much more into her than into you. Right now, when you two face off, it's yet to be decided who would win. She's truly the ace I've been hiding. Unfortunately, you refuse to let her participate in the individual competition; otherwise, I wouldn't have let Gu Shenghui go on stage."

"How is that possible!" Pei Yan jumped up indignantly, "I've merged many abilities, and all the resources of the hall have been poured into me. Even with all your prior attention to my sister, I should be stronger now, shouldn't I?"

"Well, that's true. The only area where you're currently stronger than your sister is that you've continuously absorbed two puppet artifacts comparable to Divine Artifacts. As for the rest, you might not have as much of an advantage as you think." Lin Junzhao spoke, then turned to the smiling, silent Pei Jin, and said, "Share what you've gained with your foolish brother, would you?"

Pei Yan, confused by Lin Junzhao's words, looked at his sister, who smiled nonchalantly and said, "Ever since I joined the investigation hall, the resources dedicated to me have been equally substantial, although our focuses differ. You focus on mechanical science, while mine is biological science. In terms of the value of absorbed products, I am no less than you. Moreover, the Origin fragments Lin sent and the biological specimens collected from several planes by the investigation hall have been continuously sent to me, augmenting my strength. Thus, I'm not as weak as you think."

"How come I didn't know any of this!" Pei Yan gasped in astonishment after hearing his sister, then suddenly realized and continued, "So that's why you returned to the real world every now and then all those years; I thought you were just visiting mom and dad. And Lin Junzhao, how come you sometimes occupied my body and cut off my senses, you were having special sessions with my sister! Why didn't you tell me? I didn't know anything about the hall's resources."

"That was part of my negotiation terms with the investigation hall after they captured me, to foster the development of you siblings." Seeing Pei Yan's shocked face, Lin Junzhao smugly added, "I kept it a secret to prevent you from getting in the way. See! Now it proves my decision back then was correct. You two are destined to fight together; it was fated from the moment I chose you."

"Well, since you've said all that, what else can I say? Just tell us what kind of special training we should prepare for." Pei Yan resignedly sighed, knowing he had no choice but to accept the situation.

"It's both simple and complex, a two-person fusion training!" Lin Junzhao replied with a laugh, giving Pei Yan an answer that left him utterly speechless.
