Things mentioned in the novel so far
[Spiritual Roots]
A spiritual root is something that exists within all humans from birth, awakening at the age of twelve.
The roots are divided by density.
Why this division?
It's simple: the brighter it is, the stronger its attraction to the energy of heaven and earth, and the faster cultivation will be.
[Spiritual Soul]
After awakening, it is necessary to open the mental space. Since the spiritual root is something that has existed since birth, once this space is opened, cultivators can begin cultivation by forming the Spiritual Weapon, which is an exact copy of the spiritual root.
[Qi]
Qi is the manifestation of something.
Example:
Blood Qi
Nature Qi
Poisonous Qi
Among others.
[Energy]
If Qi is manifestation, Energy is creation.
There are also various levels:
Heaven and Earth Energy – Present throughout the world.
Spiritual Energy – The name given by humans when they transform Heaven and Earth Energy.
Air Energy – Cultivated by Body Cultivators; the air serves to open internal pores, and by enduring the pain, they can refine their bones.
(Jin Yun's Cultivation)
The protagonist of this novel is somewhat special: his talent is considered trash.
But his willpower is on another level.
After awakening a useless root, he did not give up. Instead, he spent his time studying and discovered the best way to use his root, which is a Low-Level Metal Sword.
He developed a unique method: merging with metal.
This attempt succeeded.
Thus, he created an exclusive cultivation method that only he follows.

[Fusion Rules]
Each type of metal can only be fused once.
The spiritual root is constantly undergoing fusions; the protagonist does not lose anything from previous fusions, but everything merges and becomes one.
Each fused metal must be stronger than the previous one.
Failures:
If he tries to fuse something far beyond his level, no matter how strong his will is, he will explode.
Side Effects:
Jin Yun is influenced by the things he fuses with.
For example, Blood Qi puts him in a bloodthirsty state.
