The saintess I possessed had a head full of nonsense.

"I suddenly recalled a peerless female sword immortal. She also graduated from the Holy Sword University and once condensed the five basic sword seals of the Basic Sword Manual in one day during her spell seal burst period!"

The scene became tense, with everyone staring intently at the girl.

She won't.

Swish!

"It's the [Sword Twisting Technique]!" Everyone's eyes widened, unable to believe what they were seeing, their hearts clenched in disbelief.

"Slash, stab, hook, flick, twist—that's the simplest way to condense the sword technique! Why did she condense the fifth one, [Twisting Sword Technique], first?!"

"This can only prove one thing: the five basic sword techniques are completely effortless for her. She is an absolute genius in swordsmanship!"

Boom!

"It's the [Sword Lifting Technique]!" The speaker's voice trembled.

A deathly silence fell over the entire arena. Everyone's eyes were wide with shock and disbelief, an indescribable sense of awe. Had they witnessed the birth of a female sword immortal without any warning?!

In the center of my vision, the black-haired girl with a high ponytail held a sword, sweating profusely, yet seemingly radiating light, with a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth.

"Vain women are so easy to manipulate."

"You agree, don't you, imposter?"

Chapter 30 This is so Beaver, it's got me fired up!

I am truly a top genius!

Walking through the campus of Holy Sword University, feeling the stares and exclamations of passersby, and listening to the inner voice within her, Li Xuan couldn't help but think of a saying—"I am the queen, my confidence shines."

He just took a test.

[The Pretender] Since you can deceive yourself into thinking you're mediocre, can you use that to your advantage and turn Jiang Yueyue into an even more talented sorcerer?

Just then, the [Mirror Flower Water Moon] version was updated, and the magic seals can be stored first and then retrieved at the appropriate time. Obviously, the developers finally realized that mindlessly obtaining magic seals would cause great shock to the possessed person and lead to some unpredictable things.

How to do it?

Li Xuan ignored Jiang Yueyue's advice not to practice the basic sword techniques of the [Basic Sword Manual] in public, as it would ruin the mystique she had cultivated using the [Impersonator] persona.

He acquired the [Thrusting Sword Technique] and [Hanging Sword Technique] in public, which not only amazed Jiang Yueyue with his swordsmanship talent, but also greatly satisfied her vanity amidst the astonished gasps of the passersby.

The more insecure you are, the more vain you become, just like the more lonely you become as you grow older—it's an inescapable law of the world.

Jiang Yueyue's vanity indeed triggered an event, granting Li Xuan a random spell seal from the "Basic Sword Manual," which would inevitably be one of the [Lifting Sword Technique] or [Twisting Sword Technique]—because the "Basic Sword Manual" only has five basic spell seals: slash, thrust, hang, lift, and twist.

Even more fortunately, he was given priority access to the fifth basic sword technique seal, [Twisting Sword Technique].

"This can only prove one thing: the five basic sword techniques are completely effortless for her. She is an absolute genius in swordsmanship!"

Amidst the awe-inspiring murmurs of the onlookers, Jiang Yueyue's vanity was greatly satisfied, her talent as a swordsman was fundamentally confirmed, and she completed the second time in her life that she had deceived her own body.

During the peak of her magical seal, Li Xuan and Jiang Yueyue, with their two minds combined, coupled with her successful self-deception and the boost from vanity, caused her emotions and mental activity to surge to an indescribable level!

Then, through continuous swordplay involving slashing, thrusting, hooking, and twisting, Li Xuan successfully condensed the fourth basic sword technique seal with her: the "Lifting Sword Technique"!

During this training process, Li Xuan could only be considered a supporting character to her, and the formation of the [Sword Lifting Technique] was almost entirely due to her own efforts! — Because Li Xuan could not deceive himself with the [Impersonator], the difference in talent was enormous.

So, is it reasonable for "The Pretender" to deceive himself into believing he is a top genius whose talent has truly broken through the limits?

This is very beaver-like.

Let's set aside the fact that scientists believe humans can only use 10% of their brains, which could be rumors or misjudgments.

When a mage is in battle, near death, or in a state of extreme rage, it is easier for them to condense spell seals!

What does this mean?

Under normal circumstances, a warlock cannot fully unleash their talents!

The deception of Jiang Yueyue by the [Impersonator] was to free her from this "normal state" and directly put her into a state similar to "near death, battle, or extreme anger," with no time limit, forcibly releasing more of her mage talent!

It worked!

Of course, there is another possibility: the "Impersonator" is a spiritual talent!

It can influence reality through the logical behavior of its holder, preventing people from having the idea of ​​verifying any of its information.

Perhaps Jiang Yueyue wasn't exploring her potential this time, but rather genuinely improved her talent through the deception of the "Impersonator."

I am truly a top genius!

"Otherwise, why do you think I chose you?" Li Xuan didn't mind adding fuel to the fire.

Jiang Yueyue, that shameless bastard, still needs to be exploited.

[Difficult and challenging] Jiang Yueyue was shocked.

"That's right, I chose you not because you burned, but because you are a sword-training prodigy, one in a million! You should know that Saint Christine is my other body, and you wouldn't be so stupid as to let me choose a body at will without any consequences, would you?"

"Because I'm a magic genius like Saint Christine?" Jiang Yueyue exclaimed excitedly.

"That's right! You are the peerless swordswoman I chose. You possess qualities that no one else has. Punching down spoiled young masters and trampling on scheming young ladies is just the beginning. All enemies who stand in your way have already met their demise. At the pinnacle of the sword, you will challenge heaven and earth, and even the Great Dao will be obliterated by you. This is your future!"

"How can I be so amazing?" Jiang Yueyue hesitated.

Li Xuan sneered, "Ha, do you think I'm still the same Li Xuan? Are you questioning my judgment in choosing people?"

[Could it be that you are] Jiang Yueyue immediately conjured up a bunch of scenarios like "the return of a king" or "the revival of an ancient being".

"That's right. I am actually the God of Sorcerers. I was forced to merge with Li Xuan because of my enemies' schemes. As long as you work hard to cultivate and help me, I will make you the first sword god under my command once I regain my identity as the God of Sorcerers."

"I can." Jiang Yueyue's inner thoughts were so chaotic that they were like a TV tuned to static.

"Alright, Peerless Sword Maiden, your awakening has briefly restored my will. I'm going to go back to sleep now. Just cooperate with Li Xuan. He is me too, but he will become me sooner or later."

I understand.

【I am the Peerless Swordswoman!】 Jiang Yueyue's thoughts soared and ignited!

Ah, this feels so good! Is this what it feels like when a boss makes empty promises to employees and then sees them eat those promises and work hard?

Possession, transfer of spell marks, and transfer of talent—these three points alone leave Jiang Yueyue with no choice but to question them!

Li Xuan walked all the way to the meditation room of Holy Sword University, a quiet place specifically for magic students to communicate and enter the magic world.

The room was small but empty, with only the lights illuminating every inch of the space.

Li Xuan sat down cross-legged in the quiet room.

After obtaining all five spell seals—slash, stab, hang, flick, and twist—they automatically created a completely new spell seal.

Basic Sword

Restriction: The sorcerer must use a sword.

Effect: Performs five sword techniques—slash, thrust, hook, parry, and twist—using 110% of your magic power. Each technique has a 0.5-second cooldown.

After the breakthrough of [Sword Slash Technique], the cooldown is reduced to 0.5 seconds. Once the other four sword techniques are mastered, the five techniques work together and immediately reach the same level!

This is the brilliance of the "Basic Sword Manual". If you learn these five movements through other techniques, it is impossible to do this.

The Holy Sword University's "Basic Sword Manual" is both ordinary and extraordinary. It is the result of countless years of revisions by our predecessors. Swordsmen all share a tacit understanding that the "Basic Sword Manual" is a compulsory course for every swordsman.

Once you've mastered three of the following hand seals—slash, stab, hook, flick, and twist—you can attempt to open the gate to the realm of magic.

Li Xuan is activating the [Basic Sword] technique seal, attempting to open the gate to the realm of magic within the "Basic Sword Manual" and embark on his first journey into the realm of magic.

What bothered him even more was that [Mirror Flower Water Moon] was a possession ability, while the Journey to the Magic World was a soul entering that illusory world. Had the developers properly conceived of the uses of [Mirror Flower Water Moon] in this regard?

As long as it's not a soul fusion, becoming a futa is fine.

As he pondered, Li Xuan's will sensed the gate to the realm of magic. Upon touching it, darkness engulfed his thoughts.

When he woke up again, he found Jiang Yueyue lying next to him.

The girl excitedly raised her hands: "My body."

But Li Xuan suddenly had a change of heart, and his body transformed into a black sword, falling into Jiang Yueyue's hands.

And he once again took control of Jiang Yueyue's body.

【Aaaaaah! How could this happen?!】

Li Xuan looked at the black sword he had transformed into in his hand.

【Wave Sword】- Gain 18 points of Soul Power in the Spell Realm, and cause your Spell Power to fluctuate between +10 and -10.

Huh?

Chapter 31 The Shape of the Soul, The Sword Corridor

The realm of arts is a virtual world that the spirit, will, or soul can enter.

Once inside the realm of magic, the soul will take on the form of its original body to explore this illusory world.

"When sorcerers enter the sorcery world, they should be completely naked," Jiang Yueyue murmured.

Li Xuan glanced down at her dark-themed JK uniform. The "nakedness" he was referring to didn't mean what was on her body, but rather that she couldn't obtain any [Craft Essences] or [Weapons] here, except for talismans and magical power.

Only spell marks and spell power are engraved on a sorcerer's soul and can be carried into the world of magic to accompany them on their journey.

But the developers still managed to come up with some amazing ideas.

Due to possession, Li Xuan's soul and Jiang Yueyue's soul became entangled and entered the realm of magic together!

Li Xuan's soul brought with it five items: [Wave Burst], [Blessing of Courage], [The Price of Impulsiveness], [Sharp Eye], and [Black Hole Source].

No, there's also his soul!

Furthermore, the [Mirror Flower Water Moon] technique can actually transform his suddenly appearing soul into Jiang Yueyue's [ceremonial attire] or [weapon]!

Perhaps because Li Xuan's soul contains five things—[Wave Burst], [Blessing of Courage], [The Price of Impulsiveness], [Sharp Eye], and [Black Hole Source]—the weapon he transformed into, [Wave Sword], also gained corresponding effects within the magical realm.

The effect of [Wave Sword] seems to be related to the single [Wave Burst] seal?

With a thought, the black sword in his hand suddenly transformed into a pure white leather leg ring, which tightened around her black-stockinged thigh!

【Courage Leg Ring】- Gain 10 points of Soul Power in the Spell Realm and resist fear to a certain extent.
