Transmigration After Becoming Love Saint-Chapter 527 - 178 Practicing Sword in the Pond, Yan Chao Mu Shang_4

"Oh."

"..."

The door opened. Heroine Yan, holding the Breeze Long Sword, emerged and said, "Follow me. I’ll teach you the Mixed Elements Heart Sword."

The two walked to a pond, with Wang Mu trailing behind Heroine Yan.

Her tall figure moved gracefully. Her hips swayed slightly, and despite the somewhat loose, cinched long skirt, this movement accentuated her remarkably stunning curves.

Sword practitioners indeed have wonderful postures.

I wonder how she compares to the real Elder Yan...

Heroine Yan led Wang Mu through a forest. It had a pond on its periphery and clusters of flowers within. The leaves were as dense as falling rain, making it a quiet place perfect for sword practice.

Everything is an illusion, not real, Wang Mu thought to himself. Yet, it looks somewhat real.

"Draw your sword," Heroine Yan commanded.

Wang Mu gripped his sword, feeling the power contained within. He gently touched his blade to Heroine Yan’s, and they began to move in the tranquil clearing.

After practicing for a while, Wang Mu realized that this Swordsmanship indeed originated from the Love Nine Swords.

As they moved, a force emanated from each sword, intertwining with the other.

The sword he held burst with an overwhelming Sword Intent. This caused his body to heat up, and an immense tingling sensation spread through him, especially around his heart, as if countless ants were crawling there. The sensation spread throughout his body, finally converging three inches below his navel.

Having practiced the Great Yin-Yang Harmony Diagram, Wang Mu knew this was the Supreme Yang Qi, drawn forth by the Sword Intent. It was stored within the sword.

Indeed, Heroine Yan, having contended with Mu Hongyuan for many years, has absorbed some aspects of her old rival’s techniques, he thought. But... if this is an illusion, is this Swordsmanship really created by Elder Yan? Or is it just a false creation derived from the illusion?

Wang Mu was a bit confused, not very clear on the matter. Based on his previous experiences in illusions, the events within this particular illusion were all derived from processes he remembered from the game. But now, it was completely different.

Moreover, Elder Yan has ascended... How could she possibly create any illusion?

Wang Mu could not understand. It felt like he was dreaming.

It might also be that Qingbi Jiantu hadn’t taken effect. Perhaps I’ve already perished, and all this is just an illusion.

Who cares... Wang Mu thought. Even if it’s fake, can’t I still enjoy it? Since everything is already a mess, I might as well let it get messier.

Wang Mu watched the figure dancing with her sword. She was still dressed in white, her demeanor still cold. She wore no hat, but her cheeks now had a flush.

Presumably, it’s due to practicing this Swordsmanship, he thought.

Wang Mu sensed for a moment.

[Cultivation: Mixed Elements Heart Sword (+)]

The system is still active... Looks like I really didn’t die... I am indeed in an Illusion Realm... Well, then I’ll enjoy it thoroughly. Surviving a great disaster surely brings blessings. Though, I guess even if I’m fine now, having narrowly escaped death, I probably won’t be as capable as before...

Wang Mu immediately used Action Points to cultivate this Swordsmanship. In an instant, the long sword in Wang Mu’s hand seemed to come alive. His proficiency in the Swordsmanship soared as he immersed himself in its practice. At a certain moment, his body surged with power, as if it were burning flames, on the verge of exploding.

"What’s happening?" Wang Mu hurriedly asked.

He glanced at her. Heroine Yan’s body was trembling slightly, and her face was flushed. Although she maintained a composed expression, a different meaning was discernible in her eyes.

"To cultivate this sword... properly... one needs to... comprehend it oneself..." Heroine Yan murmured softly.

Wang Mu was silent. Watching her, he understood.

"This place isn’t ideal. How about practicing in the water?" Wang Mu suggested.

Heroine Yan did not respond.

Wang Mu sheathed his long sword and walked towards the nearby pond, Heroine Yan following silently behind him.

Arriving at the edge of the pond, Wang Mu jumped in, sending ripples across the water. Soon after, the water beside him gently stirred with another ripple.

Then, Wang Mu gently unlatched his sword sheath, encountering no resistance.

This sword... its blade is as white as moonlight, shining as if reflecting the Mortal World... Wang Mu mused, closing his eyes and touching the blade. Moistened by the water, the blade was slightly cold. Yet, it felt like top-grade satin, smooth as Jade, and touching it evoked a dreamlike sensation. Sword Intent erupted, causing the blade to tremble slightly. He touched the pommel of the hilt and gripped it lightly. The Sword Intent intensified, making the blade’s trembling slightly more violent. Clearly, this was the first time it had been used for sword practice in water. Even the Sword itself seemed unable to bear it.

"Heroine Yan, aren’t you going to unsheathe your sword?" Wang Mu suddenly asked.

Heroine Yan remained silent. Perhaps chilled by the cold water, her body trembled slightly.

Wang Mu gently stroked the hilt. He felt the sword was immense; he couldn’t grasp it with one hand, so he used both. Slowly, he sensed the Sword Intent contained within. His fingertips, as if assisted by a mighty force, employed sophisticated finger techniques for a better grip.

After a while, Heroine Yan also gently unsheathed her sword, revealing her peerless long sword. Her sword was translucent, like jade of the first winter snow, immaculate and spotless. She gently covered it, seemingly unwilling to let him see her Divine Sword.

"If we’re going to practice Swordsmanship, how can you do it with your sword covered?" This Illusion Realm is interesting, Wang Mu thought. Isn’t it too real? Hmm... The real Elder Yan definitely wouldn’t do this. This feels even more real than when I faced the Foundation Establishment Heart Demon.

Wang Mu vaguely remembered becoming a Taoist couple with Elder Yan during his Foundation Establishment Heart Demon trial, and the various encounters they had.

But that was very fake. After Seeing Through the Heart Demon, I couldn’t remember anything clearly. It’s like trying to recall the details after an erotic dream; you can never remember the specifics. That’s because the brain doesn’t actually store those images, so no matter how vividly you dream, you can’t conjure up details that aren’t there. It’s really too much to ask of the brain.
