    ❤️First book. When it comes to mastering the use of a knife, this is the first book that comes to mind. The protagonist transmigrates to an ancient, fictional dynasty and becomes a blind man, making a living by singing. But he has a cheat ability: he can fight various swordsmen from martial arts novels/movies in his dreams. If he wins, he can learn their sword techniques. Fu Hongxue, Li Xunhuan… even throwing knives are swords… all become his "masters." In the end, he masters the art of using a staff-shaped knife. ❤️Second book. Spiritual energy revives, ghosts roam freely, and humanity rises from the darkness, giving rise to cultivators. Cultivators inscribe magical runes on their bodies. After successfully inscribing them, they manifest the runes on their skin, using the power within them. Those who can inscribe magical runes are called rune masters. Protagonist: The world is so chaotic, it's normal for a rune master like me to carry a knife, isn't it? ❤️Third book. Three years ago, an immortal passed by, and a fairy surnamed Mo gave him a book, which turned out to be a sword manual. Unexpectedly, after three years of practice, he actually mastered a pretty good swordsmanship. ❤️ In the fourth book, the protagonist, who enters the infinite flow genre, focuses on swordsmanship. Everything he does serves the way of the sword, and he is basically passive. The later the story goes, the more focused and dedicated he becomes, eventually achieving the ability to turn a normal slash into a powerful move, destroying a star with a single strike.

    One Dao, one Buddha, two gods, three demons, four saints, five ghosts. A young man, a white horse, a beautiful woman, the martial world. One sword opens the gates of heaven, one palm kills a martial saint. Winter. Lingering snow. Her sword is moonlight. Her poison is honey. Her name is a secret. Purple clothes, like lightning. A person, like poetry. The world only knows Princess Jinning, Zhao Qingli, a walking portrait of a lady in the deep palace. But they do not know that she is also the only successor of the Sword God, a once-in-a-century genius of the Tang Clan. Her sword is called "Purple Lightning". When the sword is drawn, it is like a startled swan reflecting its shadow. No one in the world can withstand three of her moves. Because those who have seen the third move have all become mute dead men. Her palm is called "Soul Chaser". Her fingers are called "Wind Splitter". Chu Yueyao and Wen Yunshu are not maids, but two deadly shadows. Three women, a game in winter. The martial world is a cup of strong liquor.
