The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

Actually, Jiang Chuan wasn't really bothered by anything, but the Scarlet Witch's strange actions made him feel embarrassed.

The Scarlet Witch also put away her pitiful appearance and calmly opened the small wooden box. Inside the box was a headdress that looked very old, because such a headdress would not exist in this era. Instead, it looked like a headdress that was popular thirty years ago.

Scarlet Witch picked up the small hairpin, removed her wig, and let her hair down, revealing a jet-black waterfall of black hair.

Jiang Chuan stared intently at the Scarlet Witch, hoping to glean something from her, but also hoping he wouldn't see anything he shouldn't.

At this moment, Ling Juan was in a coma, or rather, not entirely unconscious, because she was in a secret realm, which was Ling Juan's inner world. As for the Scarlet Witch's words about finding the secrets deep within her heart, it seems that this was just a pass.

Where have I gotten here?

Looking around at the green mountains and clear waters, even the shimmering light and shadows on the water's surface resemble a beautiful painting.

"It's so beautiful here! Jiang Chuan! Jiang Chuan, where are you?!" Ling Juan kept calling out, trying to find Jiang Chuan, but there was no response for a long time.

Ling Juan had no choice but to give up. He then searched everywhere for a way out. Despite his small body, he possessed great energy. He searched for a long time within the painting, but it seemed he was still trapped in the same place.

Suddenly, a small path appeared ahead. The side of the path was dark, and there must be something mysterious about it. Ling Juan was naturally suspicious and hesitated to go in.

But for some reason, as soon as Lingjuan glanced at this path, she couldn't forget it, and there was even a voice calling out to her.

"Come on! All the secrets you want to know are here."

Ling Juan shook her head. With Jiang Chuan not by her side, she suddenly felt something was missing. It seemed that she couldn't fight side by side this time and would have to face the dark and unknown path in front of her alone.

As they ventured deeper into the alley, the sound gradually became clearer. Lingjuan realized it wasn't a sound she had imagined; the sound was real. It seemed there really was a story behind the alley.

Suddenly! A blinding light suddenly appeared before her eyes, and Ling Juan, who had been in the darkness for a long time, felt extremely dizzy and her eyes were glared at.

"what!"

"Don't be nervous, I am Ling Juan!"

Ling Juan slowly removed the arm that was blocking her eyes, and saw an old man standing in front of her. This old man looked very much like Ling Juan, even nine-tenths similar. However, Ling Juan looked like an old, weak, sick, and disabled person in his twilight years.

Old Lingjuan smiled as he looked at Lingjuan, squinting his eyes as he spoke.

"You are Ling Juan! You've finally arrived!"

Ling Juan blinked, not daring to get closer, but he could feel that his body did not reject the old Ling Juan.

"Who are you? How do you know me?"

"I am you, and you are me!"

Old Lingjuan answered calmly, leaning on his cane as he slowly approached Lingjuan. Lingjuan did not reject him, but allowed Old Lingjuan to get closer.

"These are all deep within your heart; I am your other side."

"What! Why is this? I don't feel like I have this side to me at all."

Lingjuan was terrified. She never expected that she was not the complete person she was now, and that there was another personality residing deep within her. However, Lingjuan remained calm.

"Could it be that the reason I always feel like something is missing from my memories is because you are missing from my life?"

Old Lingjuan smiled faintly, and unconsciously tapped his cane on the ground.

"Actually, I'm not exactly part of your personality, so it's not entirely accurate for you to say that."

"what is that!"

Ling Juan shook his head; he didn't understand why this old Ling Juan wasn't part of his own personality.

"Actually, I am you, and you are me; we are half and half."

This news greatly shocked Ling Juan. Her vision went black, and she almost fainted. She had thought she was only lacking a little intelligence, but she never expected that she was missing half of her soul.

"Then what should we do? Should we merge together?"

Old Spirit Scroll nodded and said.

"Actually, I didn't merge with you at first because after you became a sentient being, your weak body couldn't withstand so much energy, so we were forced to split into two parts, one is you, and the other is me."

Upon hearing this, Ling Juan roughly understood why her body had remained in the form of a child and had been growing very slowly: it turned out that half of her soul had been sealed away by herself.

"Shall we merge now?"

"No rush. Before we merge, I'll tell you some things to know. After all, most of the power is with me, while you only carry the physical and mental parts."

Ling Juan nodded, gesturing for Old Ling Juan to sit down, and the two sat on the ground.

The situation was a bit awkward, because the two spirit scrolls were essentially from the same person, but they were divided into two parts.

"What should you say first?"

Old Lingjuan sat on the ground and began to tell his story.

"Once you successfully merge into one, you will become your ultimate form. As for what it will look like, I don't know. Also, don't use this energy recklessly. I can tell you clearly that this power is comparable to that of a Sealer."

Ling Juan was stunned, his face twitching involuntarily. He never expected that he would be so powerful if he became the complete form.

"What happens next? Will I lose consciousness?"

After some thought, the old spirit scroll gave a vague answer.

"Actually, everything is uncertain. I'm now considering whether you want to stay in this state or become the complete version."

Ling Juan thought about it and realized that if she maintained the status quo and her strength remained the same, she would eventually become nothing more than an encyclopedia, or even an encyclopedia with several pages torn out.

If one receives this power, one will not only have the ability to protect oneself, but also be able to unleash its full strength and become part of the fighting force. This is beyond doubt.

Old Spirit Scroll wasn't eager to know the answer. He was naturally part of Spirit Scroll and knew what he was thinking, so he handed the decision over to Spirit Scroll.

"What if I go berserk, or lose my mind because of the fusion?!"

“It’s alright. Jiang Chuan still has the Scarlet Witch by his side. She will protect Jiang Chuan. In fact, Jiang Chuan will be even stronger than the Scarlet Witch in the future. I can see his future.”

Ling Juan was shocked when he heard this, but then he was no longer surprised. That's right, this old Ling Juan was his other half. He had just been thinking that if he took Jiang Chuan away, there would be no one to take care of him.

A normal person would think about how to return to normal after going berserk, but the old spirit scroll's first words were to tell it not to worry about Jiang Chuan. "Okay! I've decided, I want to merge with you and become my final form, no, I want to become the person I'm supposed to be."

Seeing Lingjuan's decisiveness, Old Lingjuan said no more. He stood up with his cane, raised it to the sky, and the cane displayed a dazzling light. Suddenly, the cane's exterior tore apart.

After being torn apart, it formed a cone of light. Gradually, the light faded a bit. The spirit scroll watched carefully from both sides, praying that the process would proceed smoothly.

"Malay sword! Come out! It's been so long since we've seen your true face!"

At this moment, the old, worn-out cane transformed into a brand-new sword—a Malay sword, the core weapon of the Spirit Scroll and his exclusive weapon.

"It seems we have to re-evaluate this precious sword."

When the old spirit saw the sword, his eyes were no longer filled with a sense of vicissitude and confusion, but instead he exuded a heroic and spirited air.

"This sword! Why do I feel a strange sense of familiarity with it?"

"This is a part of your own crystallization, called a Malay sword!"

"Malay sword! Excellent! What a fine sword! It rivals Jiang Chuan's Dragon Roar Sword."

Old Lingjuan smiled, shook his head, and said.

"No, no, no, his sword is about the sword's construction and craftsmanship, as well as the benefits of Jiang Chuan's connection with the sword and the unity of man and sword. But for you, this sword is part of your body. The sword wounds, the person wounds; the person is ruthless, the sword is ruthless!"

Upon hearing this, Lingjuan opened her eyes wide and sighed.

"This is actually part of my body!"

"The next step is for the two of us to merge. Take your hand away!"

After saying that, Ling Juan offered his hands. Old Ling Juan did not dodge, but took one of his hands and gripped the Malay sword tightly with the other.

Come on! Let's meditate together.

Lingjuan closed his eyes and listened to what the old Lingjuan said.

"Remember, in a little while you will not be who you are now, but a completely new you. Don't be surprised, slowly, slowly~"

After saying that, the old spirit scroll turned into tiny floating particles and disappeared. Since the spirit scroll had its eyes closed, it did not see the old spirit scroll disappear.

Gradually, the spirit scroll turned into specks of floating matter, becoming transparent.

In the blink of an eye, a huge beam of light emanated from the library of District 11, enveloping the library and radiating bursts of light.

"What's going on! Is it an invasion?"

Jiang Chuan immediately became alert and was about to switch to battle mode when the Scarlet Witch grabbed him.

"It's alright, I guess your little friend has a new opportunity, let's go take a look!"

Jiang Chuan found this very reasonable, and since the Scarlet Witch knew more about District 11 than she did, the two of them closed the door and strode towards the guest room.

As soon as I arrived here, I sensed something was wrong. The spirit scroll in front of me had already risen into the sky and was enveloped by beams of light. The bright moonlight shone on it, making it seem as if it was bound together.

But upon closer inspection, it was not bound at all; on the contrary, it was absorbing the moonlight energy in front of it.

Jiang Chuan stepped forward, about to investigate, when the Scarlet Witch used her telekinesis to pull him back and glared at him.

"Remember, when faced with the unknown, don't try to touch it. Instead, see if there's anything wrong with it. You have a pair of bright eyes, not a pair of feet that go around causing trouble."

Hearing this, Jiang Chuan could only nod repeatedly, never expecting that Scarlet Witch would start lecturing like this now.

The spirit scroll before him gradually became more rugged in appearance, growing larger and larger until it resembled an adult. Even its mustache grew longer and longer. Far from being unkempt, it exuded an aura of a venerable being, resembling an adult version of the spirit scroll.

Jiang Chuan looked at Scarlet Witch and said quietly.

"Is the Spirit Scroll evolving on its own? Why is it suddenly like this?"

Scarlet Witch gave it a disapproving look.

"You're treating me like an encyclopedia. You'll need your spirit scroll to return to normal in a while before you can have a proper discussion with him about what's going on. If I knew, I would definitely tell you."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuan kept muttering to himself.

"It would be better if you told me everything you knew."

I didn't expect Scarlet Witch to have such good hearing. She could hear Jiang Chuan muttering something from so far away. In an instant, my ear was already on Scarlet Witch's fair little hand.

"What did you say! Say it again!" Scarlet Witch pouted, wanting to give Jiang Chuan a big "reward".

"Ouch! Sister, no, Master, Master, I was really wrong! Stop pinching me, my ear is going to fall off!"

Seeing Jiang Chuan's remorseful expression, the Scarlet Witch stopped teasing him and let go of his hand, no longer pinching him, but still leaving a deep mark on Jiang Chuan's ear.

"I don't know why, but the spirit scroll seems to have changed!"

"It must have been a stroke of luck for him; I guess it was him who found himself."

"Have you found yourself?"

Jiang Chuan was puzzled, but seeing that the Scarlet Witch remained silent, he could only wait quietly to see what would happen.

After about ten minutes, the spirit scroll had absorbed almost all the moonlight. Its color was getting lighter and lighter, while its body was getting darker and darker. It seemed that it was almost finished.

Unexpectedly, Ling Juan suddenly landed on the ground, knelt on one knee, and slammed her fist into the ground, creating a large crater. It seems that Ling Juan completely forgot that this was a library and made such a commotion.

The Scarlet Witch didn't stop him. After all, the library was just a hobby of hers, and the treasures around her were all dispensable. Compared to the Spirit Scroll, everything else was insignificant.

"It seems I've finally found myself!"

A deep, resonant voice rang out. Upon closer listening, it was indeed Ling Juan's voice, but it lacked the childishness of hers; instead, it possessed a more serious and rugged tone.

"Jiang Chuan! Look at me, am I as tall as you now?"

Ling Juan was very excited at this moment. He had transformed into his ultimate form, with a handsome appearance. Although he had a small mustache, he also had youthful vigor and looked like he was twenty-five or twenty-six years old. Jiang Chuan was stunned when he heard this.

"I'm 1.85 meters tall! Holy crap! When did you get so tall?! You really startled me! Come over here and let me take a look." (End of Chapter)
