CHAPTER 737: THE PRINCIPLE OF 677 THREE

In the illusory dream.

Lan Meng was still explaining the situation regarding the Omniscient to Li Chengyi.

"All things known, all that is composed of order, is but a toy to those of the Quan Li, changeable at their whim."

He paused, a smile crossing his face.

"Although my realm is far inferior, I have also witnessed Master truly take action once."

"I have seen it too," Li Chengyi also realized at this moment.

It was when he first met Master Tian Xuanzi that he encountered the White Wax Organization.

At that time, Master had shrunk the primal blind spot of the White Wax to a tiny sphere and swallowed it in a single gulp.

That time, he likely completely changed the principle of the White Wax blind spot and also downgraded its image...

From a blind spot to something like a small, edible sphere...

Thinking about it now, Li Chengyi felt a truly profound sense of emotion.

"It’s good that you’ve seen it. It’s difficult for us to see the Quan Li in action since the battlefield where they truly exert all their strength is not of this tier," explained Lan Meng. "Now, you must continue to expand your dimensional coverage as well as your inherent strength. If you can make it as solid as the dimension of length, you’ll be considered outstanding among the Dimensional Demon Gods."

"Yes," Li Chengyi nodded.

Above and below this dimension lay two different planes. Saints were born from the Blind Spot World, but dimensions completely transcend the Blind Spot, stepping into the middle layers of the Black Sea.

The intricacies therein are beyond words.

"Let’s go." Lan Meng waved his hand lightly, and everything around them disappeared instantly, turning into mere bubbles.

This was a virtual dream he had temporarily conjured to facilitate Li Chengyi’s understanding of the Omniscient.

In an instant, the two were back in the great hall of the Huan Meng Pavilion.

"You are now aware of the dangers posed by the All Images. As for the All Numbers, you should minimize your commonality and avoid clustering. If every cell in your body can be uniquely distinct, that would be the safest, but it’s a luxury. Fortunately, you’ve done well in this regard. At least in appearance and the essence of life, you have no group or species alike," Lan Meng said with a smile.

Li Chengyi suddenly understood.

"As long as there are no others like me, I am uniquely singular, and that greatly reduces the targeting of the All Numbers against me?!"

"Not significantly, but it would provide some resistance," replied Lan Meng, patting the bump on his head which caused the face on the bump to emit a series of disgruntled noises.

"Then may I ask Brother Lan Meng, how does one achieve Omniscience? Surely the Founding Masters didn’t just use the Yin Canon Sword Furnace to burn their way up? Is there that much to burn in the Black Sea?" asked Li Chengyi, posing yet another baffling question.

"There are countless blind spots, constantly being created and destroyed. Rather than letting them dissipate completely, why not turn them into nourishment for oneself? What do you think?" Lan Meng said with a smile.

Li Chengyi fell silent. His words seemed to implicitly confirm that the Founding Masters and Lan Meng himself had both started by burning their way up, otherwise, it would have been impossible to cover such a vast area with their Consciousness Power.

"Moreover, Omniscience is the ultimate understanding of principle. First, you ascertain the principle and then thoroughly analyze it. There is a limit to the enhancement of Consciousness Power. When you reach the limit where your existence is permitted, you will see a beam of light. That is the essence of your entire life’s accumulation.

Embrace it, find the ultimate extension of all things within it, and use your unique dimension to explain everything. When you do so, when you can understand all things in terms of your dimension, you will truly step into Omniscience," Lan Meng replied.

"So, dimension is the seed of Omniscience?" mused Li Chengyi.

"You could say that. From the moment you chose the path of dimensions, your future was destined for a fixed place. That’s why all the forces are scrambling for forbidden knowledge systems," Lan Meng nodded.

Li Chengyi lapsed into silence, the guidance from his visit to seek help from Brother Lan Meng providing a strikingly clear direction for the future.

In that moment, countless thoughts and pieces of information surged through his mind, and it was several minutes before he could respond.

Then, he bowed deeply to Lan Meng.

"Bai Lu, thank you Brother for your guidance!"

"Go on, go on... There’s a measure to all things. When you reach the pinnacle of Consciousness and understand the creation and destruction of all things, that is when you will achieve the All Images," Lan Meng said with a compassionate smile, his form fading away once again.

Only his grand true form remained seated at a high place, slowly closing his eyes, silent once more.

Li Chengyi bowed again to the true form of Lan Meng above, then quietly left the grand hall.

Next, he needed to go to the battlefield to continue burning, to strengthen his Consciousness Power, and also to absorb a massive amount of murderous intent and Evil Thoughts.

As he left the pavilion, the outside was still filled with innumerable White Behemoths, crazily rushing through the corridors toward the frontline of the battlefield.

He didn’t know what use the fierce battles of these colossal beasts had for the Omniscient.

All he knew was that this place was an optimal location for rapid growth. Missing it would make such an opportunity hard to come by again.

Without further delay, Li Chengyi donned the Feilian Floral Dress, integrating it invisibly into his Daoist robe, then, with a Shadow Flash, he leaped long distances forward, flying towards the battlefield.

In no time,

At the frontline of the battlefield where black and white intersected, a splendid golden explosion erupted.

Massive golden flames ignited the Void Beasts once more, turning into countless beams of Consciousness Power that were burned and integrated into Li Chengyi’s body.

His Consciousness Power once again soared with the aid of the Yin Canon Sword Furnace.

One hour.

Two hours.

Three hours...

A day.

Two days...

Ten days...

Li Chengyi didn’t continue to delve deeper; instead, he maintained his position at the front line, motionless, even as the white behemoths from this side charged past the line, he did not join the fray but remained on the battlefront.

As time passed, his consciousness power surged like madness.

Now the lifeforce dimension he covered had reached a diameter of several hundred thousand kilometers.

This wasn’t the coverage area of consciousness power, but rather the dimension combined with consciousness, which he could completely control.

On the black and white battlefield, one could see a golden fireball illuminating the surroundings, with an endless stream of colossal beasts from Tian Ju Pavilion pouring into the Void faction’s side.

But these beasts that rushed in couldn’t hold out for long before being pushed back.

The grind of solo combat was incredibly tedious, yet it continued for half a year.

Li Chengyi kept returning to Earth-Moon, using the expenditure of Evil Thoughts to balance his body’s recovery, in order to counter the accelerated empowerment of the Life Vitality Imprint.

His consciousness power was growing rapidly, now hundreds of times greater than it had been half a year ago. The dimensional range had long since broken through that of a single planet, beyond the scope of the Earth-Moon galaxy, extending into the surrounding space.

With a clear future path, Li Chengyi was no longer lost, aware of the gap between himself and the Omniscient, and began focusing on self-improvement, entering a semi-reclusive life.

One year later, according to the Black Sea Calendar, on Earth-Moon.

The headquarters of Mingyuan Group had moved out of the urban area, combining several Blind Spots in overlapping underground bases, creating a massive, sci-fi alloy technology city.

The entire city was like a silver interstellar battleship erected and inserted deep into the earth.

Inside the underground headquarters of the group.

Within a blue dome-shaped building.

The spiral doors opened automatically, and a tall man with a robust build and a weary face walked out.

The man wore a deep blue robe and had a Purple Jade Pendant hanging at his waist. His face was flawless like a carved jade, appearing to be in his twenties.

"Boss, how do you feel?"

Leaning against the wall outside the door was a pair of ponytailed girls, chewing bubblegum and occasionally blowing small bubbles, but for some reason, they never got very big.

"Not bad, are you ready on your end?" asked the man in a deep voice. He was Li Chengyi, who had just returned from the battlefield.

In the past year, his consciousness power had become much, much stronger, and the terrifying increase in consciousness power seemed to have made the pull of the Blind Spots powerless to shake him.

Throughout the year, the Blind Spots could do nothing to him, further convincing Li Chengyi that the path he was on was the right one.

"As long as I’m stronger than the strongest Blind Spot, none can pull me."

"It’s done," replied the girl, who was Rainbow Candy, always stationed here.

After receiving the power feedback of the Divine Flower Generals from Li Chengyi, Rainbow Candy and others were catapulted forward, their bodily strength surged instantaneously, and through a balanced method, it allowed several members of the team to enhance their bodies to withstand Blind Spots without trouble.

Thus, previously scattered by the Blind Spots, everyone reconvened successfully within two months of Li Chengyi’s return after breaking through their own Blind Spots.

"You worked hard for this. It’s not an easy task," Li Chengyi sighed.

As his strength continuously rose, his understanding of Evil Thoughts deepened.

What he had Rainbow Candy produce was a specialized Evil Bead based on the principle of the Flower Language Seal Bead.

Evil Thoughts, inherently, are a kind of mental wave, and the existence of the Flower Language’s "Seal of Love" provided Li Chengyi a clear demonstration of a way to store Evil Thoughts.

He thus created many Sealing Spheres at once, asking Rainbow Candy to perform a unified aggregation test.

The two left the place where the Root of Evil was used to adjust body attributes and headed to an adjacent compartment.

"Everyone’s gone out now; I’m the only one holding down this place. Even Da Xiong has gone to harvest Evil Thoughts. Everyone needs a massive amount of Evil Thoughts to balance their bodily state with the Root of Evil," complained Rainbow Candy while walking.

"Didn’t I see you drinking fruit wine with Yserine just a few days ago?" Li Chengyi remarked casually.

"Is Yserine even human?" Rainbow Candy retorted decisively.

"Er..."

The two entered the compartment, and on the table inside lay a delicate dark golden bracelet.

The bracelet faintly emitted waves of Evil Thoughts.

"I combined a total of ninety-two Sealing Spheres and ended up with this." She picked up the bracelet and handed it over to Li Chengyi.

"It can hold a very large amount of Evil Thoughts. Based on our previous calculations, where one unit is equivalent to the minimum amount of Flower Language evolution, this thing can store millions of units," Rainbow Candy explained.

"Good," Li Chengyi nodded, took the bracelet, roughly sensed it for a moment, then wore it on his wrist.

"Also, how is the test you mentioned before going?" he asked offhand.

Rainbow Candy had said she wanted to test the limits of her Flower Language Ability, so she started with the most common clumps of dirt, repeatedly aggregating them to see what they would ultimately form.

"It’s right here." Rainbow Candy’s expression shifted slightly as she pulled out a semi-transparent grey clump that looked like crystal from her pocket.

"What is this?" Li Chengyi curiously asked as he took the clump.

"I don’t know," Rainbow Candy shook her head. "I just aggregated the most common mud, and at first, it still felt like a hard rock, but then it gradually started to feel off."

She looked at the grey crystal mud, her brows tightly knit.

"Can you believe that this thing appeared after I aggregated mud clumps as big as a dozen aircraft carriers?"
