46. Sky Mirage True Demon Technique
Witch Academy was truly massive. Although there were teleportation arrays, the location Zi Yan had sent was still some distance from the nearest teleportation anchor point. By the time Meng Lian arrived, it was already nine fifty-eight.
Just in time.
Meng Lian straightened her slightly disheveled dress, then pushed open the door, preparing to greet everyone.
"Good morn... huh, why is there no one here?"
The meeting location Zi Yan had chosen was an unused empty classroom. Meng Lian checked the address Zi Yan had sent and confirmed she hadn't come to the wrong place.
Meng Lian walked into the classroom. It was completely empty, with only graffiti on the front and back blackboards, making the place feel both spacious and eerie.
This was...
Just then, Meng Lian suddenly noticed something not far from her. She hesitated for a moment, then reached out her hand, only to unexpectedly touch something soft and smooth.
"Eek!"
A startled cry suddenly came from before her, and Fei Xing's petite figure was revealed.
And what Meng Lian had just touched was Fei Xing's little face.
Fei Xing's face was completely red now, and her eyes were full of embarrassment and indignation as she looked at Meng Lian.
"Little Star lost! Didn't expect Little Junior Sister to discover Little Star so quickly."
A snap of fingers suddenly exploded beside her ear. Soon, the scene within the classroom began to distort, and Xian Yun's figure was also revealed at this moment.
"I'm sorry, Third Senior Sister, I didn't mean to."
Meng Lian hurriedly moved her hand away. Fei Xing turned her head, looking unhappy.
"It's not your fault, it's my fault for not practicing enough. My skills aren't up to par yet."
Fei Xing knew it was her own problem, so she lowered her head, looking dejected.
"It's fine, you haven't been learning illusion arts for long either. Little Star, don't be so pessimistic~"
Xian Yun, seeing this, hugged Fei Xing and placed her hand on the girl's forehead, completing their combined state.
"Xian Yun is right. The threshold for illusion arts is naturally very high. Fei Xing, being able to conceal your figure already is quite impressive."
Just then, an extremely mature and enchanting voice came from behind.
Meng Lian turned around to find a purple-haired woman standing behind her, having appeared without her noticing.
The woman had flowing purple long hair, soft and lustrous, like the glittering galaxy in the night sky. Every strand emanated a mysterious aura, and with the addition of twinkling star textures, it added a dreamy quality, like a spirit of the night sky.
She wore a signature magic hat, deep purple in color with a tall, pointed tip, giving her a mysterious witch-like air. The brim was decorated with exquisite lace trim, as well as small magical runes and gems that shimmered faintly in the light.
She was dressed in a purple-gray gown in Gothic Lolita style. The gown was covered with exquisite lace patterns and mysterious eye motifs. From the neckline to the hem, eye elements were everywhere. These eye patterns were not merely visual effects but concealed symbols of illusion arts, the Mysterious Eye, symbolizing the exploration of the unknown and the illusory.
"Little one, I'm Zi Yan, your teacher for the next five years~"
"Hello, Teacher. I'm Meng Lian, I..."
"I know."
Zi Yan suddenly moved closer to Meng Lian. In her purple pupils, starry patterns faintly appeared. Zi Yan looked at the golden vertical pupils that emerged in Meng Lian's eyes due to her proximity and smiled slightly.
"Sure enough, the Sky Mirage True Demon Pupils. Little one, your talent is truly remarkable."
Sky Mirage True Demon Pupils? What was that?
Meng Lian looked confused. Zi Yan smiled and patiently explained, "The Sky Mirage True Demon Pupils are an extremely rare type of heterochromatic eyes. They can help you see through illusions, and learning illusion arts becomes twice as effective. If the Sky Mirage True Demon Pupils reach perfection, an ordinary person only needs to make eye contact with you once, and they will fall into an endless illusion until death."
That powerful?
"Of course. Otherwise, how could you see Fei Xing, who was hidden in illusion arts, right after your Witch Transformation?"
Fei Xing heard that Meng Lian actually possessed the Sky Mirage True Demon Pupils and breathed a sigh of relief. The other party had a special ability, so it was understandable that she was discovered.
"I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. Something this coincidental makes one suspect the handiwork of Fate (#6)."
Zi Yan narrowed her eyes and said this with implied meaning.
Meng Lian listened in confusion, but Zi Yan didn't explain further. She took out a book from the void and handed it to Meng Lian.
"Sky Mirage True Demon Technique. Wasn't Little One worried before about getting lost in Nordlin? If you cultivate this technique, you won't have to worry anymore. The Sky Mirage True Demon Technique is enough for you to cultivate all the way to Great Witch."
Sky Mirage True Demon Technique?
Meng Lian thought of her own Sky Mirage True Demon Pupils, finding it somewhat unbelievable.
Could it really be that coincidental?
"Mm, just as you're thinking. This book is a unique copy. Its first owner, who was also the author of this book, was a possessor of the Sky Mirage True Demon Pupils. Other ordinary people can also cultivate this technique, but unlike someone like you who possesses the Sky Mirage True Demon Pupils, they cannot cultivate the complete technique. Even I can't do that."
Meng Lian accepted the Sky Mirage True Demon Technique. For some reason, she felt that everything was too coincidental. This technique seemed to be tailor-made for her, as if an invisible hand behind the scenes was manipulating everything.
"I also think it's quite a coincidence, but don't worry. We walk the path of illusion arts, after all, and we are disciples of Illusion (#4). No matter what, Fate (#6) will give her some face and shouldn't interfere with your destiny. This is probably all just coincidence."
Zi Yan seemed to know some inside information and comforted Meng Lian.
"I understand, thank you, Teacher."
Meng Lian sincerely bowed to Zi Yan.
The other party was so dedicated and thorough, truly treating her as her own genuine disciple.
"It's nothing. School starts tomorrow, Little One. Do your best~"
Zi Yan smiled, then chatted with Xian Yun about some graduation-related matters, encouraged Fei Xing a bit more, and then stepped into a suddenly appearing spatial rift and disappeared.
Is this what a Great Witch is? Creating spatial rifts with just a wave of her hand.
Meng Lian watched this and couldn't help but marvel continuously.
Now only she, Xian Yun, and Fei Xing remained in the classroom. Meng Lian asked the question that had been on her mind.
"Eldest Senior Sister, where is Second Senior Sister? Why don't I see her?"
"Junior Sister, she felt she was about to break through to Extraordinary Witch, so she went into seclusion."
Xian Yun had a strange expression on her face.
Modu's breakthrough was quite amusing. In the end, it was still related to Meng Lian.
Modu had always been a famous figure at Witch Academy, an ice queen goddess with high cultivation. She had always had many admirers, but due to her extremely peculiar tastes, countless witches had become entangled with her. Every day, the Witch Forum had gossip about her and various witches.
But not long ago, in order to win over Meng Lian, Modu had unexpectedly betrayed her NTR ways and decided to pursue pure love instead. She even prepared three very detailed plans. Perhaps the heavens couldn't bear to watch, but just as Modu was about to implement her plan, she suddenly felt she was on the verge of a breakthrough and began a death seclusion.
Zi Yan had her own explanation for this, saying something about thoughts becoming clear, how sometimes choosing the opposite path brings unexpected surprises.
But Xian Yun scoffed at this. She just felt that the heavens pitied their Little Junior Sister, and to prevent her from falling into Modu's clutches, they made Modu break through and enter seclusion to protect the Little Junior Sister.
Of course, Xian Yun didn't tell Meng Lian any of this. She just found an excuse to brush past it.
……
Zi Yan: "Teacher, I just accepted a cute little disciple. What do you think?"
Zi Yan: (Image)
IllusionArtsIsMy** (Illusion): "Beautiful. Photo album."
Zi Yan: "She's your disciple's disciple, don't get any ideas about her."
IllusionArtsIsMy** (Illusion): "Cut the crap. Tell me what you want. I'm very busy right now."
Zi Yan: "Teacher knows me best. I just want to ask if Fate has been paying attention to my little disciple lately."
Fate (#6) always liked to interfere with the destinies of people she was interested in. Zi Yan suspected Fate (#6)'s influence behind Meng Lian.
IllusionArtsIsMy** (Illusion): "Fate? She dares? Last time I made her unable to straighten her back for a hundred years, and she still dares to target my disciple's disciple?"
That's exactly why I'm worried!
Zi Yan was speechless. Illusion (#4) was good in every way, except for her love of lewd things. That was why the entire path of illusion arts was more or less improper.
Sometimes Zi Yan suspected that Illusion (#4) had become so absurd from spending too much time with Pleasure (#3).
IllusionArtsIsMy** (Illusion): "Alright, I'll handle this matter. This time, let's fry that Fate person a hundred times over."
Fate: In danger.
At this moment, in a certain world within a certain galaxy, Fate (#6), who was weaving the destiny of this world's Child of Destiny, suddenly sensed a wave of malice.
This malice was pure. It was aimed directly at her.
Oh no, it's coming for my body!
