Chapter 344 - 339: The Highlight
Passing on skills is a standard reward, not an advanced one. It only allows skill transfer, not spell transmission. Under these circumstances, Pella can gain part of his cultivation and become stronger but should not be able to master the Sword Control Technique.
Leon furrowed his brow, considering a possibility. He thought that the cultivation he passed on to Pella might include his understanding of spells, giving her the opportunity to learn the Sword Control Technique.
"Is there a problem?" Pella had never seen her master show such a solemn expression.
"No problem, it’s a good thing." Leon reassured, though he couldn’t guarantee his guess was correct, "How did you learn the Sword Control Technique? Did you suddenly feel inspired?"
"I don’t know." Pella gently shook her head, her flaxen long hair swaying softly, "Every time the master used the flying sword, I’d watch and learn, but I never managed to understand. After the master granted me the power, the parts I couldn’t comprehend suddenly made sense. I felt I could give it a try, and then I succeeded... It seems I didn’t succeed after all."
Leon stroked his chin, pondering for a moment. He thought Pella’s Sword Control Technique didn’t seem to come from insight into the cultivation he transferred but mainly from watching him use the Sword Control Technique regularly... Cecilia said her talent was good; it really seemed impressive. As for why others couldn’t learn, the reason was simple—they didn’t have the cultivation that he transferred, so there wasn’t a foundation for using the Sword Control Technique.
Leon felt the new hypothesis was more reasonable. He casually drew a sword, saying, "Watch carefully."
Leon handed over the sword, brought his index and middle fingers together, and controlled the flying sword to roam chaotically, asking, "Did you see clearly?"
Leon suddenly realized something, recalled the flying sword, held it in his hand, and said, "To use the Sword Control Technique, you must first bind a sword, entrusting your spirit to that sword, making the sword an extension of yourself..."
