Next, I’ll have to spend most of my time on the Way of Sword, Time and Space, Zhang Ruochen thought .

Studying these three ways would be ten or 100 times more difficult than studying other ways .

The Sword Way was a bit better because there were a lot of Rules of Sword Way in the rules emperor weapon from the Wujin Ancestor . Zhang Ruochen could study them directly and turn them into his own Rules of Sword Way .

But the rules emperor weapon didn’t have any from the Way of Time or Space .

The Wujin Ancestor hadn’t studied these two Ancient Ways at all . Thus, Zhang Ruochen couldn’t convert them directly . He had to study slowly by himself .

This would take a lot of time without gaining a lot .

Fortunately, the Rules of Saintly Way were all active in the Truth Godly Palace . Comprehending the Ways of Time and Space would definitely be faster than outside .

After figuring out the way to break through the bottleneck, Zhang Ruochen stood up . He went to the Abyss Ancient Sword’s side and asked, “How is the comprehension?”

“I still haven’t figured out the second image fully yet . ” The sword spirit shook its head .

“The first level isn’t suitable for me anymore,” Zhang Ruochen said . “Follow me to the second level!”

The Abyss Ancient Sword was only a sword, after all . Zhang Ruochen couldn’t spend a bunch of time waiting for it and end up affecting his own cultivation .

Plus, the Way of Truth could only help the Abyss Ancient Sword a little bit .

The first level of the Truth Godly Palace had 88,888 cultivation rooms . It was like the entry level to the Way of Truth .

The second level was the refinery level . There were 8,888 cultivation residences .

Since the rooms were so limited, it wasn’t easy to enter and cultivate . You had to fully comprehend all three images of the first level to qualify .

Coming to the second level, Zhang Ruochen saw a dozen Truth Godly Palace disciples . Two of them were godly disciples . They were clearly much more advanced and were responsible for testing, accepting, and making arrangements for incoming cultivators .

One of the godly disciples was Feng Yan’s sister, Feng Xi .

When she saw Zhang Ruochen come to the second level, an undetectable look flashed past her eyes . She exchanged glances with another godly disciple in the distance .

The other godly disciple chuckled softly .

Zhang Ruochen walked over and bowed slightly . “Greetings, Senior Sister Feng . ”

“Zhang Ruochen, do you know that you must comprehend all three images in the first level before coming to the second level?”

“Yes,” Zhang Ruochen said .

“Does that mean you’ve already comprehended them fully?” Feng Xi asked .

Feng Xi’s pupils constricted involuntarily . “But I remember that you’ve only cultivated for around one month in the Truth Godly Palace in total . ”

Hearing her conversation with Zhang Ruochen, the surrounding disciples all perked up their ears .

He’d comprehended all three images in one month?

The disciples of the Truth Godly Palace all started whispering amongst themselves . They clearly didn’t believe it .

Zhang Ruochen looked nonchalant . “One month is enough . If you don’t believe me, you can test me . ”

Feng Xi nodded . She led Zhang Ruochen to the northeastern corner of the square . There was an ancient bronze mirror as tall as three men standing atop one another .

“This is the Truth Mirror . You just have to activate all of your Rules of Truth and the patterns will appear on the mirror . ”

Zhang Ruochen walked below the mirror and started moving the rules with all his might . Seven hundred twenty-nine strange patterns instantly appeared around his reflection . They wrapped around him like spider webs .

Looking at his reflection in the mirror, Zhang Ruochen murmured, “So these are the rule patterns . ”

Behind him, the many Truth Godly Palace disciples let out surprised cries, finding this unbelievable .

Feng Xi’s expression didn’t change that much . She just took out a badge for Zhang Ruochen . “The first level is only for entry cultivation . The second level won’t be so easy . ”

Zhang Ruochen accepted the badge and said humbly, “Senior Sister Feng, could you give me some tips? Perhaps I can take fewer wrong paths . ”

It might have been due to Feng Yan, but the cold and frosty Feng Xi really did give him some tips .

Under a first disciple’s lead, Zhang Ruochen went to the cultivation residence .

The godly disciple standing beside Feng Xi looked at Zhang Ruochen’s back and said, “So amazing! Do you think he received Mysteries of Truth?”

Feng Xi’s eyes flashed . “It’s best not to guess casually about this . If news spread, the consequences would be serious . ”

“You’re right . The Mysteries of Truth are too important,” the godly disciple said meaningfully .

Just then, Feng Xi’s ears twitched as if she heard something . She hurriedly lowered herself to one knee and her expression became respectful .

Half a moment later, she stood up again and looked at the other godly disciple . “Our teacher sent a message . It is forbidden to spread any information about Zhang Ruochen . ”

“We shocked our teacher?”

“For the past century, our master has been ruling the Truth Godly Palace,” Feng Xi said . “Since he has sent a divine message, we should hurry and warn the other disciples so they don’t leak any information . ”

The godly disciple nodded but also had a strange expression . “Very few things can alert the teacher . Do you think Zhang Ruochen really did get the Mysteries of Truth?”

“I think that we shouldn’t discuss this anymore . ”

Seeing Feng Xi’s cold expression, the disciple suddenly thought of something . His expression faltered and he fell to the ground . “I didn’t mean to second-guess the teacher,” he said, repenting . “Please forgive me . ”

Zhang Ruochen used the badge and entered the cultivation residence . His sight brightened instantly and his view broadened . The ground became a colorful sea of flowers .

He took a deep breath and instantly smelled the fragrance .

“The second level of the Truth Godly Palace is indeed magical . One residence is like one world . Would others have a sea of flowers too?”

Looking at all the fresh flowers, Zhang Ruochen got into a good mood . He sat in the flowers and Feng Xi’s words from earlier rang through his mind . “Observe the flowers for the truth . All are in the flowers . ”

He took out the Abyss Ancient Sword and lit a Honghua Vine .

He separated his soul into six again . One studied the Sword Way, one the Time Way, one the Space Way, one the other Saintly Ways, and the remaining two studied the Truth Way .

One month later, the flowers around him changed .

Petals fell down naturally, but instead of landing on the ground, they flew in the air . They spun around Zhang Ruochen like a rain of petals .

His eyes opened suddenly . “Extinguish,” he uttered .

The flying rain of flowers vanished into strands of smoke .

A smile appeared on Zhang Ruochen’s face . “This is the first level that Senior Sister Feng mentioned . The flowers are not flowers . All are hallucinations . It’s not that hard to understand!”

After one month of studying, Zhang Ruochen now had 2,187 Rules of Truth .

He stood up and executed a Luo Water Fist Technique . After adding in the Rules of Truth, it was four times stronger .

“Not bad . Now, I’ll start studying the second level . ”

Zhang Ruochen continued to cultivate .

According to Feng Xi, the rooms in the second floor of the Truth Godly Palace had two levels . Completing each level represented a big step forward in the Way of Truth .

But the second level was much harder than the first .

Most of the top talents who came to the Truth Godly Palace couldn’t even comprehend the first “flower, non-flower” level . Even Feng Yan, who’d cultivated in the Truth Godly Palace for many years, still remained at this level .

The second level was far harder than the first . Zhang Ruochen spent two months before he comprehended it fully .

When he did so, the plants around him all produced buds and bloomed with a speed visible to the naked eye .

Suddenly, the flowers that had disappeared came back and the fragrance hit him .

Zhang Ruochen let out a long laugh . “So, this is the second level . Flowers are life, beautiful and vibrant . Not bad, not bad . Life is the most precious . ”

Zhang Ruochen now had 6,561 Rules of Truth .

Next, he practiced the Luo Water Fist Technique and actually released five times the power .

“The Way of Truth finally isn’t my shortcoming anymore . ”

Before, when Zhang Ruochen fought with those top geniuses, his biggest shortcoming was mid-level saint spells and the Way of Truth .

For example, when Zhang Ruochen fought with Blue Fang in the same realm, his saint spells had been weaker because of his weaker Way of Truth . In the end, he had to use the Fire God Boxing Set to defeat Blue Fang .

Now, Zhang Ruochen’s every saint spell was five times stronger . If he fought with Blue Fang in the same realm again, Zhang Ruochen could defeat him with one punch .

His cultivation hadn’t improved that much, but his combat ability was now comparable to King Yan and Queen Lian even if he didn’t use the powers of time and space .

If he used the powers of time and space, it would be possible to defeat them too .

One could say that his improvement in the Way of Truth allowed him to become a top figure in the Truth Heavenly Domain .

Right then, the Holy Carnivorous Flower’s voice rang out within him . “Master, I’ve awoken . ”

Then an extremely alluring woman walked out of his back .

While slumbering, Demonic Sound’s cultivation had improved vastly . She was now a fifth step Saint King .

Demonic Sound stretched, sketching an image with tempting curves . “Master,” she said with a soft voice . “I’m so hungry . Do you have any Saint Kings for me to eat?”
