A Sorcerer’s Journey

Chapter 991: Chapter 983: Face of Truth Project Phase 8

Two years later.

"Master, in the 19th Layer Abyss Laboratory, the Time-Willow Vine has consistently refused to produce any more catkins."

The Taro Man appeared in the Grim Void Mothership Laboratory. Now, after being nourished by the Kin Fern Origin Life Spring, not only did it break through the shackles of a mere level three Plant Person to become a World Master, but it also evolved without hindrance, now reaching a terrifying vitality of 50,032, becoming the most mysterious and powerful slave in the Secret Realms of Grim.

"Understood."

Green nodded.

"What a pity, yet another seasoning will be lacking in the future, never mind."

With that, Green waved his hand, signaling the Taro Man to leave. Then, a face, matured and steady from the passage of time, was illuminated by the flickering lights of the Magic Lamp. His bicolor eyes reflected excitement, ardor, and anticipation as he looked at the alchemical marrow of the alien on the laboratory desk. An eye, on the verge of complete assimilation with Grim Power, was covered with sealing runes, exuding profound mystery.

"It’s done, it’s about to succeed; the eighth phase project of the Face of Truth, the Eye of the World!"

The abnormal world eye kept struggling but was suppressed layer by layer by numerous runes from the first seven phases of the Face of Truth and sealed with the Energy Conservation Sealing Technique.

It seemed like an eye caught in the clutches of alienation, trying to break free from the mask, only to be continuously pulled back by it.

With Green’s laughter, gradually, the struggle of the abnormal world eye fatigued, becoming weaker and weaker, as the gray alchemical marrow of the alien firmly imprisoned it upon itself.

After nearly two hundred years of effort, the eighth phase project of the Face of Truth is accomplished!

Eagerly reaching out his right hand, his slender and fair fingers gently touched the desk. With a surge of Magic Power, the alchemical marrow of the alien rapidly shrank into a mass, reshaping into the gray spiral pattern form of the Face of Truth. Only, at the center of its forehead, there was now a vortex appearing to absorb souls, with a hazy eye blinking eerily.

"Hehehehe, Eye of the World, what kind of capability do you truly possess?"

Clutching this seemingly heavier, mysterious mask, as the mask’s capabilities grew more numerous, stronger, and moved further beyond the imagination of lower life forms, it was drawing closer and closer to the epic-level sorcery instrument goal that Green envisioned during his apprentice years.

Green’s ultimate goal is to elevate it to an unparalleled sacred artifact, comparable to the Ring of Attrition, Lever of Destiny, and Eternal Sky City!

Closing his bicolor eyes, with the slight moisture on his face, as the Face of Truth integrally merged with his visage, there was no longer any abnormality.

When Green opened his eyes again, the world had changed.

"This is..."

Beyond the gray sky of the Oblivion Tower Secret Realm, in the Endless Void, there was a vast and dazzling Milky Way, spanning the farthest reach of Green’s perception; it was an advanced rule phenomenon Green had never before been aware of!

Quickly removing the Face of Truth, Green’s bicolor eyes looked up again to the sky, only to see the Oblivion Tower Secret Realm shrouded in gray haze, an appearance of obscurity.

"What is this, the deeper truth of the Endless World?"

In shock, Green, wearing the Face of Truth once more, left the semi-transparent Void Mothership made up of dots and lines in his vision, the only unclear part being that which gradually approached the Dark Matter Reactor, as though obscured by a vast energy source.

Looking up to the sky, Green flew towards the endless, eternal Milky Way within the Face of Truth.

Whoosh...

Breaking through the Oblivion Secret Realm, Green was flying at full speed in the void, attempting to discover what the Milky Way truly was, moving forward tirelessly.

Gradually, Green finally comprehended.

The distance between him and the Milky Way was not merely a matter of time and space as understood; it was the distance between appearance and truth, a different dimensional distance, a realm lower-life forms in the Endless World cannot comprehend but higher-dimensional beings can reach; it is their Endless World.

"Is this the unique ability of the Eye of the World? Involving such a high level of knowledge that my current self cannot explore, understand, or touch it?"

Uncertain how much time had passed in enlightenment in the void, Green slowly turned around, intending to return to the Wizard World.

Yet this time, Green was astounded by everything he saw again, even the slight gasping under the Face of Truth, a human reaction to bewilderment and panic, went unnoticed by Green. As a Stigma Sorcerer, Green stood silently, beholding the completely different scenes.

The expansive Wizard World that once floated in the traceless void like a giant capsule, now, in Green’s eyes, turned into an expansive gray paper, with countless rule runes flowing swiftly like ants, dozens of small eyes continually watching in all directions.

The once vast capsule-like Wizard World in Green’s vision now appears as a flat sheet of paper, floating in the Endless Void!

Are those eyes the Eyes of the Wizard World at East Coral Island Zelatt port?

Did they complete a substantial transformation within the profound rule mysteries of deeper truth?

Floating in all directions around this expansive gray sheet of paper that is the Wizard World are millions, even tens of millions of fragments, each also grayish. Among them, a particular fragment seems exceptionally intimate; is that the Oblivion Tower Secret Realm?

The deeper truth perception brought by the Face of Truth, a higher-level vision not aligning with Green’s life level, brought him not excitement, but fear!

This fear, akin to the unknown dread he felt in childhood at the Lord’s Manor upon seeing the Dimensional Rift Talent through Wizard Arowoz’s Crystal Ball.

Lower life forms exist within their appearances of Time, Half-Step Chronos, and True Time, retaining cognition at this stage. Experiencing a higher life form’s world without corresponding life levels to adapt to this perception is akin to a cricket suddenly catapulted to a crowded tax board upon a ship’s deck...

"Go back."

In silent suppression, Green flew towards the gray paper representing the Oblivion Tower Secret Realm.

Watching himself meld gradually into the paper, the myriad rule runes bypassed him to continue flowing; this unprecedented feeling was indescribable.

Could it be that the prolonged struggle during the dominion’s descent is due to having to push apart the paper’s rule runes bit by bit, creating a massive opening large enough for the body to merge into?

And is the chaos of rules created by the formation of this massive opening, along with the intrusion of one’s own rules, the root of world cataclysms?

The Dark Matter Reactor of the Void Mothership was shrouded in haze while other parts presented a semi-transparent structure of dots and lines, akin to enhanced ultrasound detection.

Each Screaming Cockroach’s heart position was warmer. Even buried tens of meters underground, it was visible through the structured surface rock layer by the Face of Truth.

A breeze brushed by, its energy pattern clearly visible, and it was easy to judge the flow based on the direction, like looking at a blueprint.

Relative to that, the underground energy pathways were much more complex, becoming blurred around a hundred meters down due to layered energy networks.

"Aside from revealing a deeper level of material energy essence within the world, it seems there’s not much change beyond a strengthening of the first seven phases of the Face of Truth... Hmm!?"

On the "Book of Truth," a peculiar black line was connecting to an unknown place in the Wizard World. (To be continued.
