Immortal Dao Fruits, Cards to Help Me

Chapter 85 Cards, Fusion for Me!
"Ding~ System upgrade complete. Please check it yourself."

Chen Xiuxian, who was organizing information on the four "leaders" of the Youyuan Dao sect and planning to trick them, suddenly received a system notification.

Good news from the delivery room: the system has been upgraded!

Chen Xiuxian quickly put down his calligraphy brush and opened the system interface.

The system interface has changed this time!
Below the card deck, there's something that looks like an alchemy furnace!

Upon clicking, a special interface appeared before Chen Xiuxian.

There's a rectangular empty space in the middle, clearly meant for holding cards.

The card with the toad gold is already on the table!

Among the empty spaces of the surrounding cards, there is also a purple-skinned toad leader card.

"Ding~ Do you wish to fuse the cards [Golden Toad Leader's Tactical Fairy Squad (Red)] and [Purple Toad Leader (Blue)]?"

Another system notification appeared.

Chen Xiuxian carefully examined the interface.

Is the system now capable of fusing cards?

What are the effects of fusion?
What are the conditions for integration?
The [Golden Toad Leader's Tactical Fairy Squad (Red)] in the middle will definitely remain unchanged, but besides the empty space that already has the [Purple Toad Leader (Blue)] inlaid, there are three more empty spaces next to it!
Does this mean we can add a few more cards and fuse them together?
Chen Xiu thought for a moment and then put away the card containing the toad gold.

The time Chen Xiuxian accidentally triggered card fusion, he had no choice but to risk his "favorite general" for fear of missing out.

Now that the system has been updated with new features, you can no longer immediately use your trusted subordinates for practice.

He thought for a moment and then pulled out all the white cards, which numbered nearly two hundred.

The vast majority consist of materials and low-level equipment.

Those low-level equipment are just leather armor, cloth armor, and the like.

Since it exists in card form, it doesn't take up much space, and Chen Xiuxian isn't short of money. He got a bit of a squirrel complex, thinking he might need it later, so he kept it.

See, now we don't need to go online!

Place a piece of hardwood (white) in the center, and all the blank inlays around it will become dull, leaving only one.

Um? What does it mean?
Could it be... related to the card's level?
The toad gold was a level 4 red card with four sockets.

Is it a white card now, and there's only one?
Reasonable!

To be on the safe side, Chen Xiuxian placed the same [Hardwood (White)] in the surrounding slots to see what two [Hardwood (White)] could be combined into.

When I tried to synthesize it, there was no reaction.

A line of small text appeared on the screen: Insufficient Magic Dust.

"Demonic dust? What's that?" Chen Xiuxian asked, puzzled.

At this point, a "Magic Dust: 0" indicator appeared in the bottom right corner of the screen.

"Could it be something needed for card fusion? But where can I get it?"

At this point, the highlight reappears at the top of the screen.

Chen Xiuxian took a look and exclaimed, "Decompose!"
With focused attention, the interface switches instantly, transforming from fusion to decomposition.

That's about right, with an inlay in the middle.

Chen Xiuxian placed a [Wooden Shield (White)] on it, and the message "Disassemble to obtain 8 Magic Dust" appeared below it. Then the "Disassemble" button below lit up.

Chen Xiuxian focused his attention and pressed the button.

The [Wooden Shield (White)] card suddenly enlarged and lit up, then numerous cracks appeared on its surface, and it shattered into dust with a "crack" and disappeared.

Then the "Magic Dust: 0" in the bottom right corner changed to "Magic Dust: 8"!
So that's how it is. Card fusion requires magic dust, and magic dust is obtained by dismantling cards. What a simplistic approach!
Chen Xiuxian dismantled more than a dozen unusable white cards, and the amount of magic dust he gained varied, ranging from about 5 to 9.

Finally, he made the difficult decision to take out a green equipment card and distribute it as well.

I received 26 magic dust this time.

Generally speaking, dismantling a white card will yield less than 10 magic dust, and dismantling a green card will yield less than 30 magic dust.

This data is too little; more experiments are needed. Unfortunately, Chen Xiuxian is reluctant to dismantle the green and blue cards right now.

That's enough for now! Let's explore it slowly.

Two pieces of [hardwood (white)], merge them!

"Ding~ 10 Magic Dust consumed, card fusion successful, obtained [Great Hardwood (White)]".

Hey! It's still a blank card.

Aside from the name, it seems like... Ah! The wooden stake on the card is much bigger.

Chen Xiuxian placed the card on top again, then found another [Hardwood (White)] card and inlaid it around it, combining them!
Another 10 Magic Dust, and then [Great Hardwood (White)] was upgraded to [Hardwood Heart (Green)].

Wow, you got a green card!

Upgrading three [Great Hardwood (White)] cards to [Hardwood Heart (Green)] cost 20 Magic Dust.

It takes about four or five cards of the same level to upgrade to the next tier.
That's how it looks for now; there are too few cases to summarize.

However, this is a great thing!
I actually have a lot of cards that I don't need! I didn't know what to do with them before!

This ability to both decompose and fuse is such a wonderful thing, isn't it?

You can even buy things from auction houses to combine them.

Buy things, combine them into a high-end product, then sell it online, then buy more, combine them again, and sell it online again!

Hahaha!

Isn't this a closed loop?

Of course, the specific operations still require careful calculation to avoid total losses. But overall, it has a very promising future!
I always said that combining the best features of two companies will result in an effect greater than the sum of its parts!
Chen Xiuxian rubbed his hands excitedly. He had several cards he had just obtained from the Calabash Brothers dungeon, and they were two identical cards.

If it's an upgrade, it definitely won't go astray.

【Heartfelt Scorpion Tail Hook (Blue)】+【Heartfelt Scorpion Tail Hook (Blue)】!
[Bewitching Thousand Miles of Mind - Remnant (Blue)] + [Bewitching Thousand Miles of Mind - Remnant (Blue)]!
[Manifestation of Ruyi - Remnant (Blue)] + [Manifestation of Ruyi - Remnant (Blue)]!
If I continue to integrate like this, it won't be long before this magic weapon becomes complete and regains the power it had in Mo Chou's hands.

Damn, why should I be afraid of some important figure with a predestined connection?
Let him come!
I want to hit ten!
……

"Ding~ 100 Magic Dust consumed, card fusion successful, obtained [Bewitching Thousand Miles Realm - Remnant (Blue)]".

"Ding~ 100 Magic Dust consumed, card fusion successful, obtained [Manifestation of Wish - Remnant (Blue)]".

Although the card names and rarity remain the same, the changes are evident simply by looking at the designs on the cards.

The Bewitching Thousand Mile Realm has grown from the size of a palm to the size of a human head!

The miraculous Ruyi also changed from having only one Ruyi-shaped Ganoderma lucidum head to having two-thirds the size of the entire Ruyi.

There's a chance! There really is a chance!
Of course, the consumption is quite significant!
Looking at it now, we still don't have enough white cards!
Chen Xiuxian felt that he should make good use of the auction house.

Furthermore, when fusing, try to fill the slots with as many inlaid cards as possible.

For example, if all three card slots of a blue card are filled with blue cards, then it will only cost 100 magic dust once to upgrade it directly to a red card!

However, if you fuse four different cards, it's uncertain what the final result will be.

I do have some blue cards that I could try out. Should I give it a shot?

Or should we try for a green card first?
