Exploring Truth Within Perception!

The room was tidied until not a speck of dust remained.

With the cleaning done, Luo Zhou let out a sigh of relief.

Through this work, he was familiarizing himself with his own body, adapting to the Devil Master's sacred physique.

In truth, whether it was strength, agility, physique, or perception, nothing seemed to have changed.

Yet, something felt different.

Now, it was: I think, therefore I can.

He gently clenched his fist. His original strength of 14,000 jin could be further increased, boosted to 18,000 jin in one go, without any strain.

He could hold a teacup without breaking it, gently push a door open, and all his strength was under his complete control.

His body was the same. It possessed immense flexibility, resilience, and agility, far exceeding his past self by several times.

His five senses had expanded invisibly, allowing him to perceive the world more perfectly.

All of this still required slow study and summarization, but Luo Zhou knew he was worlds apart from his former self, completely different.

He had been a chrysalis; now he had transformed into a butterfly!

Soaring through the heavens, traversing the universe, he now had the first seed of capital!

Not to mention, Dragon-Slaying Thrust had silently expanded its range from twenty-five feet to forty-three feet.

Weak Water Three Thousand, the ability Flying Pounce, had also expanded to a forty-three-foot range.

His strength had skyrocketed!

And if he wished, he could easily advance to the eighth or ninth level of Body Tempering, or even reach the Great Perfection of Body Tempering.

But Luo Zhou wouldn't do that. He would continue to maintain Body Tempering at the seventh level.

This was just the tip of the iceberg of the Devil Master's sacred physique. He needed to adapt slowly and gain even greater power.

Luo Zhou tried to check the Primordial Golden Seal on his chest.

The golden seal was branded onto his chest. Apart from himself, no other holy sons among the Devils could see it.

Staring closely, the Primordial Golden Seal transformed into the appearance of a secret manual.

Slowly opening the manual, two large characters appeared: Omniscience!

But as Luo Zhou watched, the strokes of Omniscience gradually dimmed, leaving behind only a single ray of light.

Self-explanation!

"You can activate true Omniscience, knowing everything, but you cannot withstand such a massive amount of information and will die immediately. Do you wish to consume one life to activate Omniscience?"

This was normal. To achieve Omniscience, one needed a body capable of withstanding it.

To consume a life for Omniscient perception? Was he crazy? Wasn't living better?

Luo Zhou shook his head and said, "No!"

Instantly, Omniscience changed, splitting into two forms.

"Peering into the profound mysteries from ignorance!"

"Exploring truth from knowledge!"

Two choices. One was to peer into the secrets of all things in the void where Luo Zhou could not perceive.

The other was to use Luo Zhou's body to understand and explore the truths of the universe.

Luo Zhou immediately chose the latter: Exploring truth from knowledge!

Peering from ignorance would attract inexplicable strangeness and cosmic illusions. He was merely in the Body Tempering stage; seeking death.

Another change occurred!

"Primordial Golden Seal activated. It will analyze the world and explore the universe by leveraging your knowledge."

This mode relies on your self-awareness and knowledge. There is a certain possibility of errors in Omniscience, please discern it yourself.

This Omniscience is a pseudo-Omniscience, an auxiliary tool within your cultivation. It does not possess other auxiliary abilities such as guiding cultivation, predicting danger, or completing techniques. Please be clear in your mind and do not rely on it too heavily.

Please accumulate more knowledge and expand the scope of Omniscience. The aforementioned abilities may be born as your understanding is supplemented.

When Omniscience reaches a certain level with your knowledge, it will automatically enable other exploration and perception channels.

Channels such as Heavenly Knowledge, Earthly Knowledge, Life Knowledge, Death Knowledge, Divine Knowledge, Spiritual Knowledge, Heart Knowledge, Perception, Cognition, Awareness, etc., will be used to obtain Omniscience.

Heavenly Knowledge refers to what the world knows, Earthly Knowledge refers to the traces of existence on the earth, Life Knowledge refers to what all living beings know, Death Knowledge refers to what the dead and the underworld know..."

Luo Zhou nodded continuously. His work was done. He would go find Headmaster Zhao to claim his reward.

He headed towards the principal's office. Along the way, he gradually noticed text appearing above the surrounding objects.

"Mop, ordinary item, cleaning tool."

"Potted plant, ordinary item, decorative object."

It was like an automatic appraisal.

All things were accompanied by such text.

Luo Zhou shook his head; continuing like this would exhaust him.

He tried to filter out mundane things, to only display special items and provide reminders.

As soon as this thought arose, things changed.

The filtering began, and the text for ordinary objects disappeared.

The omniscience of the Primordial Golden Scroll felt like gaining an extra pair of eyes, something he would need to slowly adjust to and master bit by bit.

Arriving at the Headmaster's office, Luo Zhou knocked.

"Enter!"

Luo Zhou entered the Headmaster's office, only to find two other people inside.

He recognized them both as students from Xianya Class One.

A man and a woman!

The man was named Tang Moli, and the woman was Yuan Qiuyun.

They had awakened their Spiritual Power talent from a young age and were directly admitted to Xianya Class One at the Daoist Academy.

Seeing Luo Zhou, neither of them paid him much mind.

Headmaster Zhao spoke slowly:

"You are all my prized disciples. Get to know each other; in the future, during the Ascension Ceremony, you can help each other."

Upon hearing this, Tang Moli and Yuan Qiuyun looked at Luo Zhou with curious gazes.

Anyone who could become a personal disciple of Headmaster Zhao was undoubtedly extraordinary.

Luo Zhou smiled and said, "Luo Zhou, Body Tempering fifth level..."

Headmaster Zhao interrupted him, "Tell the truth!"

Luo Zhou had always hidden his true cultivation from others. Being told this by his teacher, he had no choice but to be honest.

"Body Tempering seventh level, Spiritual Power that can overturn rivers and seas, Nine Bulls and Two Tigers, Force User, Curse Master."

His Spiritual Power that could overturn rivers and seas had been used in front of the Dragon Fang Gang disciples, and it hadn't escaped the notice of those paying attention.

There was no need to keep it a secret, so he stated it directly.

Tang Moli also introduced himself:

"Tang Moli, Body Tempering ninth level, Innate Five Elements Spiritual Root, abilities Vast Sea Transformation and Subtle Knowledge, Alchemy Master, Gold Sculptor, Soulslayer."

Luo Zhou looked at him, a smile on his face.

This bastard is lying!

As Tang Moli introduced himself, Luo Zhou found he could gradually perceive his information.

Tang Moli, Body Tempering tenth level great perfection, Spiritual Power All Heavens Decree, Spiritual Power...

His teacher, Headmaster Zhao, hadn't reprimanded him for not telling the truth, which suggested he had deceived even the teacher.

Tang Moli had hidden his cultivation level and two Spiritual Powers. All Heavens Decree was one, but he hadn't perceived the other.

This guy isn't honest, even deceiving his master.

Yuan Qiuyun also introduced herself:

"Yuan Qiuyun, Body Tempering ninth level, Innate Wood Water Earth Spiritual Root, talent Azure Cloud Elegance, Sun Crown Master, Diviner."

She hadn't hidden anything or lied.

Luo Zhou smiled. He found that his omniscience was slowly adapting to the environment, becoming stronger.

Only his teacher, he still couldn't see through. He would take it slow.

Headmaster Zhao said slowly, "You are all my disciples, and I have high hopes for you..."

Although everyone at the Daoist Academy was his student, these three had the closest relationship with him and were his personal disciples.

He was having his disciples get to know each other.

If they could help each other in the future, they should.

After the introductions, Headmaster Zhao waved them away, asking Luo Zhou to stay.

"Luo Zhou, finished your chores?"

"Teacher, the task is complete!"

"Good. An emperor doesn't send his soldiers away hungry. Here are five Spirit Yang Pills for you. Go back and cultivate well."

So, the purpose of cleaning the room was just an excuse to give him pills.

"Thank you, teacher!"

Luo Zhou accepted the Spirit Yang Pills and left.

He returned to the classroom, where everyone was cultivating in the training grounds.

Luo Zhou also went there. The moment he stepped onto the grounds, his omniscience improved again.

In the training grounds, everything was as clear as day to Luo Zhou. Nothing could hide from him.

At this moment, all things were quantifiable, like celestial rulers and earthly compasses within his heart. The status of every classmate was laid bare, their strength, their cultivation, everything was clearly understood.

However, with such a massive amount of data, Luo Zhou needed time to digest and adapt.

"Great Hero Luo, what brings you here today?"

Cui Jian came running over.

As the Hall Master of Xianya Hall's Third Class, he never missed a day of cultivation at the Daoist Academy.

"Huh? You, you, how are you already at Body Tempering seventh level!"

Luo Zhou had stopped hiding his realm after leaving the Dean's office.

Previously, his insufficient strength had necessitated hiding it, especially during the Woodworm Devil battle, to protect himself.

Now that he had transformed, his future growth would only increase, and it was time to gradually reveal his capabilities.

Luo Zhou chuckled, "Senior Brother, your eyes are indeed sharp. You deserve a reward!"

Hearing this, Cui Jian burst into laughter, knowing Luo Zhou was offering to treat him.

"Only fifteen people showed up today, can you treat me to an extra bowl of porridge!"

This scoundrel was truly shameless!

"Reward!"

Luo Zhou took out the Broken Spirit and handed it to Cui Jian.

Cui Jian was overjoyed. As he took the Broken Spirit, their hands touched.

Luo Zhou froze, then grabbed Cui Jian's hand and began to rub it vigorously.

"No, no, brother, I'm not into that!"

Cui Jian struggled.

As Luo Zhou rubbed his hand, he suddenly discovered:

Cui Jian, Body Tempering seventh level, Spiritual Power: Light-Twisting Engraving (Sealed), Special Ability: Swift Movement.

This scoundrel actually possessed the Light-Twisting Engraving? And it was inexplicably sealed. What was going on?

Could this Senior Brother be a Saint Child of the Jellyfish Celestial Palace?
