"Hiss—why is there so much transcendent radiance on you? Yet there's not a single transcendent item on you???"
"And why is there so much inside your body???"
Mafas had been a bit too curious and used a Detect Magic spell on Gu Shanhai, who had no ability to conceal it, so it was seen through.
This somewhat shook Mafas's worldview.
"Oh, you're talking about this? It's because of the plants I cultivate and the constant prophecy spells I have on me. The reason you see so much radiance is that each prophecy spell is reinforced with a great deal of transcendent magic techniques," Gu Shanhai said, seemingly unconcerned.
"I get the latter part but why would the plants have radiance? And I don't see any plants," Mafas said, puzzled.
"Because I cultivate them inside me. Look," Gu Shanhai said, and a tender sprout popped out from his forehead.
Mafas recognized it at a glance—it was a newly sprouted oak tree. At that moment, his worldview began to invert.
