Wait, wait, wait, hold up a sec.
Does this mean Sun whatshisface somehow has a Fate and a Victory Anam technique?
Who the fuck is carrying that cheat level character?!?
I mean, we didn't even know that Soldier apparently requires techniques of every Element you use to be considered 'Complete' until literally just now, and here's a guy who has what's apparently an ordinary background, has somehow lucksacked his way into just being handed a Twelfth Order Anam technique soon enough that he's apparently already early Farmer?
All I'll say is that there is a very real benefit to having very rich friends in high places with long histories of Cultivation who want nothing more than to punch you in the face.
It'd be great if Time had a similarly bullshit influence on us, like additional actions per week or something. We could really use them right now.Also, while Time likes Kong Zhi, Fate apparently likes Sun Yujin. And Fate in xianxia is very good at getting those that it loves exactly what they need. Like rich, powerful, and helpful friends.
The second is an ancient skeleton the size of a small house that has stood for so long that it has fused into the wall. Bone and Earth anam radiate off of the Warrior Standing Vigil, but I care only for the Steel. A small concentration of it joins the Sun and Force in my body, just waiting to be used.
Btw, does anyone know how potent Jai Fa's steel natural treasure was again? I don't think she'd let us borrow it (if it's not already bound to her), but if it's not enough to satisfy her Steel anam needs for the indefinite future, she's going to want to find a Steel natural wonder too. We might be able to convince her to go searching for one with us.
Hmm, do we know anyone else who is confirmed to use Steel or Smoke? I don't think anyone in the expedition did (or at least, they didn't have techs with those aspects). The only one who springs to mind is Huo Shi, since he was the original owner of the treasure we cycle smoke from. We're on vaguely OK terms with him, aren't we? (if only because he doesn't realize we're trying to steal his girl...) Maybe he has some good info.Fa's Treasure is explicitly off-limits to us - she told us not to even try using it. Also, she doesn't need a Steel Wonder because her Treasure is apparently very good.

It does: We call it SV.It'd be great if Time had a similarly bullshit influence on us
Yet even if he is renting one that does imply there is one to rent, which is good to know since it wasn't available on the list we looked at before. I think it would be a good thing ask him about--perhaps through Mo Hanying when next we see her. She might even send us off to go cycle with him (this is wishful thinking, I know, but I could see her do it just to put us in an amusingly awkward social situation).Given Huo Shi is a noble he may well have just been renting Wonders with his allowance
This seems like a terrible thing to bet on. It would take weeks to hear back from them, and there is no guarantee our family has the appropriate techs. Siani would be most displeased if we waited for a letter from home to begin progressing too.Actually, couldn't we write to the family and ask for smoke and steel techs? The archives don't really matter for this.
It'd take a while. Tho I wouldn't mind asking for some extra arts alongside the ones Siani is giving us. More options are always fun to have.Actually, couldn't we write to the family and ask for smoke and steel techs? The archives don't really matter for this.
[X] You will accept techniques from Elder Siani's personal collection.
Definitely this. We already have a Time Wonder and a Smoke Natural Treasue and Steel and Smoke Wonders should be simple enough to buy access to as they're not very uncommon elements or get pills for. High quality techniques though are far more of a pain to find I imagine.
Also, what's the plan for this?;

Unknown Technique ?? (Any 15)
Cost: ??
Current Phase: 0/??
Description: You extracted several bottles of glowing green Ichor from the body of the Vestige you slew in the Ghost City. You feel there is power in this blood- and you want to know the secrets it holds.
Get some Steel Pills and cycle Time, Smoke, and Steel at the same time in the Second?
Wouldn't it be better to make it have all three elements of our Core instead of just one though? If the benefits stack it would only cost 50% to use/learn.Nah, that's going to be the spark behind our Time Technique, we just don't know what it'll spit out yet.
