- it's even more probable that it WASN'T created for the sword, since eunuchs typically couldn't carry swords around. The needle would even be a more suitable for them.
- the technique part, without being powered by its qi part, is completely useless. This is very different from Dugu 9 sword. And you cannot use other qi to power its technique. It must be Sun Flower qi. No other ways.
- there was never any record about the qi part being used alone like 9Yang or Yijinjing or used with other techniques. So it's probably only compatible with its own technique.
- that makes Sun Flower the number one art, in terms of internal and technique synergy. No othe arts in JY's universe are this tightly coupled.
- DFBB's version should be more "intact" than the Pixie sword manual, because the latter went through another layer of interpretation.
- still, considering how strong DFBB was, the original Sun Flower manual must be insane. That eunuch should easily be in the 90-95 range.
