Controlling the Truth Society

Su Yuan sat cross-legged beside the pool.

I carefully observed the subtle changes in my body.

Heart rate, blood flow speed, the subtle peristalsis of the internal organs... and the connection between the body and the outside world.

"My rate of absorbing external energy has increased by 10%..."

Su Yuan thought to himself, "To be precise, it's that my body's ability to absorb and digest energy has increased."

Previously, my body absorbed and consumed 10 points of energy per minute.

"So now, it's consuming 11 points of energy per minute..."

Su Yuan thought to himself, "In this way, my cultivation speed will naturally increase within the same amount of time."

Su Primordial Spirit was happening.

Although he had already obtained detailed information about the effects of absorbing and refining the outer dragon blood from the Grey Mirror.

But knowing is one thing, experiencing it firsthand is another. Feeling the subtle changes in every part of your body is a hundred times more intense than simply knowing.

"Now that I've completed the Level 3 Lifeform stage, I don't need fifty cultivation sessions anymore; forty-five will suffice."

Su Yuan thought to himself, "A 10% increase in cultivation speed is a huge boost to the overall cultivation pace."

"Unfortunately, these kinds of treasures that increase the upper limit of cultivation speed only have an effect the first time they are used..."

Su Yuan shook his head slightly. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to kill the Exotic Dragon Fish directly.

Instead, they would choose to capture them alive, and then either clone or reproduce them.

Anyway, with Su Yuan's abilities, as long as he spends more time, he won't lack dragon blood in the future.

After leaving the room, Su Yuan found Gao Dehai, the person in charge of Laboratory No. 3, and told him how to dispose of the dragonfish carcass.

"Don't worry, boss, I will definitely do as you instruct."

Gao Dehai was visibly excited; being able to study this Exotic Dragon Fish up close was a real treat for him.

"Um."

Su Yuan inquired with the Grey Mirror deep within his sea of consciousness, and after confirming that Gao Dehai would not make any mistakes, he left Laboratory No. 3.

Villa 66.

In the quiet room, Su Yuan sat cross-legged.

"The Sacred Art <Thought Imprint> has been mastered; it's time to practice other Sacred Art..."

1

After a brief moment of contemplation, Su Yuan made his decision. "I will first cultivate the Sacred Art of preserving my life."

No matter what, survival skills are always the most important thing.

Even if Su Yuan possessed the Omniscient Mirror and knew the dangers he would face in the future.

However, the stronger the means of survival, the less dangerous something was originally considered dangerous, and the Omniscient Mirror can offer more options.

At all times, strength determines everything.

For example, if Su Yuan wants to fight against Alien Force, the Omniscient Mirror will provide many methods, but all methods are inevitably cumbersome and require the help of various external forces.

This is inevitable; how can you win without external help when the enemy is attacking from below?

But what if Su Yuan were a Saint? He wouldn't need to fight against Alien Force at all. If they knew there was a Saint on Blue Star, they would obediently come and kowtow.

This illustrates how different strengths lead to different outcomes.

Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice.

"To be honest, from the time I started cultivating until now, I've never practiced any offensive or defensive techniques. My ability to rank among the top on Blue Star is entirely due to brute force..."

Su Yuan muttered to himself.

As for the combat experience gained from watching battle videos... it's not really a means of attacking or defending oneself; at most, it's just a certain combat technique.

On Blue Star, even the most powerful Sorcerer possess various spells and curses.

In the quiet room, Su Yuan sat cross-legged, asking the Grey Mirror deep within his sea of consciousness about many details and cultivation methods of the life-saving Sacred Art, the Yin-Yang Dharma Robe.

The Gray Mirror rippled and churned, revealing individual characters.

[By fusing and combining the Power of Ultimate Yin Power of Ultimate Yang of the universe in a specific way... a Yin-Yang Dharma Robe is formed... Once completed, the robe is impervious to all evil and unaffected by any magic... It cannot be broken by anything but the power of Great Saint...]

Su Yuan stared at it for half an hour, then fell into thought.

Can't read.

That's right, unlike the auxiliary Sacred Art of <Thought Imprint, which requires no understanding and can be condensed simply by following its steps.

The concepts and essence of the Sacred Art <Yin-Yang Dharma Robe> were completely beyond Su Yuan's comprehension.

Su Yuan thought for a moment, then continued to ask the Grey Mirror, "What is the Power of Ultimate Yang of the universe, and how can it be understood and controlled?"

The Gray Mirror churned and blurred, giving a reply.

[The Power of Ultimate Yang of the universe is the perfect embodiment of Yang...]

After a moment, Su Yuan continued to ask, "What does 'Perfect Yang' mean, and how do you comprehend and master it?"

The Gray Mirror churned and rippled, revealing words once more.

[The ultimate heat is fire, the ultimate fire is yang, and the ultimate yang is extreme yang. To comprehend extreme yang, one must master the following spear technique...]

Characters rapidly appeared on the Gray Mirror, forming a set of marksmanship techniques.

The marksmanship had no name, but it exuded an extreme heat, as if it could incinerate everything.

Su Yuan spent three hours memorizing all thirty-six spear techniques, and then immediately grasped the Jet-Black Spear beside him.

The Jet-Black Spear was the very one Su Yuan had used to pierce the head of the Exotic Dragon Fish. After sending the Exotic Dragon Fish back to Laboratory No. 3, Su Yuan also brought this spear back with him.

Call!

As a Level 3 Lifeform, Su Yuan had an excellent memory and immediately began practicing the gun techniques given by the Grey Mirror.

The Thirty-Six Forms of Spear Techniques, each one like a burning flame.

Burn, burn, burn!

Let the world turn into flames!

Twenty minutes later, Su Yuan stopped.

"How's my training going?" Su Yuan asked Grey Mirror.

The answer emerged from the Gray Mirror.

[Very bad]

"Very bad?" Su Yuan raised an eyebrow. He felt he had practiced very well, and even believed that the lethality of this gun technique had surpassed any offensive method on Blue Star.

What's wrong with it?

Su Yuan humbly sought answers.

[The first horizontal slash was too deliberate...]

The Grey Mirror precisely pointed out Su Yuan's mistakes.

Su Yuan pondered for a moment, then immediately corrected himself and began practicing the spear technique that resembled burning flames again.

Time passed.

A week has passed in the blink of an eye.

This week, apart from his regular training, Su Yuan devoted all his energy to practicing that fiery spear technique.

"I underestimated the Sacred Art. Every normal Sacred Art is created by Saint with countless efforts. To comprehend it? To understand it? To master it? It's too difficult."

Su Primordial Spirit was slightly wistful.

Let alone the Sacred Art, even the meager spear techniques that were derived from the Sacred Art are still beyond Su Yuan's comprehension.

"Take your time, I have plenty of time."

Su Yuan steadied himself. Compared to other cultivators who practiced Sacred Art, he was already very lucky.

With the cultivation plan devised by the Grey Mirror, as long as one follows it step by step, one is destined to master the Sacred Art; it's just a matter of time.

After finishing his marksmanship practice, Su Yuan went to the basement.

"Xiao Lan, contact Kaido."

Su Yuan gave the instructions.

"Yes, Master."

Xiao Lan answered.

A short while later.

On the enormous screen in front of Su Yuan, Kaido's image appeared.

Kaido is Eight-eyed Member of the Truth Society and the head of the Truth Society's Android factory in Europe.

About two weeks ago, Su Yuan personally went to Europe and used the Sacred Art <Thought Imprint> to control Kaido and two other Seven-Eye Level members, and also took over all the Android in the factory.

"Owner!"

Kaido's gaze turned fanatical when he saw Su Yuan.

"Later, do as I instruct you to contact Bruce, tell him you're in Magic City, and then use the excuse of the Longevity Serum to get him to come to Magic City..."

Su Yuan spoke.

Bruce, Eight-eyed Member of the Truth Society, has the best relationship with Kaido.

"Let Bruce go to Magic City..."

Kaido hesitated slightly.

It's not that his loyalty to Su Yuan is questionable.

Instead...

"Master, I know Bruce well; he might not agree."

Kaido stated the truth.

The Truth Society Founder had long ago stipulated that Eight-eyed Member were prohibited from meeting in private.

Furthermore, without permission, high-level members are prohibited from entering the territory of Great Xia.

In this situation, even if Bruce is his closest friend, he might not necessarily come.

He will agree.

Su Yuan said calmly.

This is why he only now had Kaido contact Bruce.

"Good."

Kaido trusted Su Yuan unconditionally and immediately began contacting Bruce.

Across the ocean.

Bruce had just attended his mother's funeral.

His mother's death had a great impact on him.

"If I had a Longevity Serum, my mother wouldn't have died," Bruce thought to himself.

As Eight-eyed Member of the Truth Society, Bruce appeared extremely glamorous, wielding great power within the Truth Society and conversing with heads of state of major powers.

In reality, the most crucial power of the Truth Society —the management of the Longevity Serum —is still firmly held in the hands of the Truth Society's president.

The Longevity Serum is extremely difficult to manufacture. Even Eight-eyed Member only have two doses available every ten years, and each Longevity Serum can only extend one's lifespan by ten years.

Bruce gave one Longevity Serum to his wife and then took one himself.

So he could only watch helplessly as his mother grew old and died.

"Father..

Bruce looked at his father, who looked dejected, not far away, and fell silent once again.

If nothing unexpected happens, given my father's health, he will pass away from old age in the next few years.

"If only I could have one more Longevity Serum..." Bruce sighed, knowing full well that it was impossible.

The Truth Society's ability to distribute two Longevity Serum every ten years is already considered quite comprehensive.

It's impossible to issue more.

As for buying it from others who possess Longevity Serum? That's impossible too. Who would sell such a life-extending substance?

Just as Bruce was sighing inwardly, his cell phone suddenly rang.

"Kaido?"

Bruce glanced at the caller ID and answered.

He and Kaido are both Eight-eyed Member, and they usually have a good relationship and often keep in touch.

Bruce, guess where I am?

Kaido said excitedly.

Where?

Bruce asked.

"Magic City, it's Magic City!"

Kaido immediately said.

Magic City?

Bruce's expression changed slightly. "The Magic City of the Xia Kingdom?"

"Kaido, be careful. The Chairman said long ago that no one is allowed to enter Xia Kingdom without his orders."

"Bruce, the Chairman is too old." Kaido shook his head and said, "With the current strength of my Truth Society, why can't we enter Xia Kingdom?"

These words were spoken.

Bruce was speechless.

Really.

The president's attitude towards the Xia Kingdom is still stuck a hundred years in the past.

In fact, after a century of development, the Truth Society produced several times more Level 4 Artificial Human. If another Great War of Nations were to break out, the Xia Kingdom would certainly be unable to stop the Truth Society's advance.

"No matter what, we must obey the chairman's orders."

Bruce shook his head and said.

However, they did not dwell on the issue further.

Just as Kaido said, Bruce didn't think Xia Kingdom posed any threat.

But at the very least, one cannot openly disobey the chairman's orders.

"By the way, Bruce, what are you doing right now?"

Kaido asked casually.

"I was attending my mother's funeral," Bruce said in a low voice.

"Your mother..." Kaido moment, then slapped his thigh, "Why didn't you say so sooner? I had extra Longevity Serum..."

Given Bruce's status, it's impossible for his mother to have died from various illnesses or accidents; she could only have died at the end of her lifespan.

"You have extra Longevity Serum?" Bruce suddenly realized.

Compared to him, who had a family, Kaido lost his parents at a young age and never married. He does have several children, but they are still far from the end of their lifespan.

"Yeah, I carry it with me." Kaido said nonchalantly.

"I see..." Bruce glanced at his elderly father not far away and tentatively asked, "Kaido, could you lend me a Longevity Serum?"

Although Kaido had just expressed his intention to "lend" him, Bruce wasn't sure if he was just being polite.

After all, Longevity Serum are something that, even if kept unused, are not easily lent out.

"Sure."

Kaido readily agreed, "However, I'm currently in Magic City and can't go back anytime soon..."

"I'll have someone..." Bruce thought for a moment, then immediately said, "I'll go to Magic City."

Bruce wasn't entirely comfortable sending his men to retrieve such a precious item as the Longevity Serum.

If anything unexpected happens, not only will he still owe Kaido the Longevity Serum, but his own father will still be unable to escape old age and death.

As for sending absolutely loyal Android to retrieve it... the highest authority of all Android in the Truth Society rests with the Chairman. The Chairman knows everything about where they've been and what they've done.

Sending Android to Magic City without authorization is not only against the rules, but it also exposes Kaido's presence in Magic City.

After much consideration, Bruce decided to go in person.

Like Kaido, Bruce also believed that the Xia Kingdom did not need to be as wary as it had been a hundred years ago.

Using his status as Eight-eyed Member of the Truth Society, forging visa information, and secretly entering Magic City —who could possibly know?

And even if the Xia Kingdom knew, so what? Would they dare to lay a hand on a member of the prestigious Truth Society at the Eight-eyed Member?

"You're coming in person? Great! I rented a villa in the suburbs of Magic City; the scenery here is beautiful, perfect for a vacation."

Kaido said, "This villa is Villa 66 in the Jinshan Villa District. You can just come in when you arrive."

"Okay, I'll leave tonight."

Bruce nodded, indicating that he had memorized it.

One month later.

Villa 66, Jinshan Villa District, Magic City.

All Eight-eyed Member of the Truth Society and twenty-two core Seven-Eye Level members stood there respectfully.

The gaze directed at Su Yuan was filled with intense fervor.

It's filled with loyalty and sincerity!
