Chapter 1637: Receiving Mysteries of Truth Again

Ten Truth Boats were in a row. Soon, with Thousand Star Maiden, Feng Yan, and Blue Fang at the lead, they rushed out.

For strong cultivators at their level, the first level didn’t pose any difficulty. They controlled the Truth Boat steadily and shot out like an arrow.

Only Xiang Chunan, who was crossing the Ocean of Truth for the first time, was still spinning in place, sweating in panic.

It was Zhang Ruochen’s second time and he didn’t go too quickly. Instead, he took in the process closely.

Compared to the first time, it’s clearly harder. Maybe it’s because I reached the Saint King Realm, so the Ocean of Truth automatically raised its difficulty level.

Even though it was harder, Zhang Ruochen had improved more.

He stood at the fore and controlled the boat with his Spiritual Power. The boat cruised forward with a steady speed.

When he reached the first level’s pass, Thousand Star Maiden, Feng Yan, and Blue Fang had already defeated the guardian and broke through.

The curtain of light before him shone with brilliant light.

The guardian appeared. It was semi-transparent and wore silver armor. “Defeat me to reach the second level. Now, you may choose your weapon for battle.”

“I won’t use any weapon. I’ll use fist technique.”

Zhang Ruochen clenched his fists and uttered, “First move of the Luo Water Fist Technique, Heavenly River Split!”

Boom!

When he punched, a heavenly river appeared. It fell from the sky, hitting the guardian and splitting it into pieces.

A casual punch killed the first level’s guardian.

Zhang Ruochen steered the Truth Boat through the curtain of light and entered the second level.

The wind on the sea surface turned into a storm.

Every strand of wind was like a blade, producing cracking sounds on the Truth Boat. They seemed to cut through the small boat.

Zhang Ruochen grew careful. He wrapped his vast Spiritual Power around the Truth Boat and cruised forward more slowly.

Raising his head, he saw six Truth Boats cruising in the ten-mile-wide second level sea.

Thousand Star Maiden, Feng Yan, and Blue Fang were still at the front. They’d already defeated the second guardian and reached the third level. Two Deities were fighting intensely with the second guardian.

Three other Saint Kings were still cruising. Among them, the strongest was already a third step Saint King.

As expected, the stronger your cultivation, the more difficult this is. Instead, top talents like Thousand Star Maiden, Feng Yan, and Blue Fang can move powerfully across the Ocean of Truth.

Zhang Ruochen wasn’t worried. Seemingly calm, he studied the Ocean of Truth carefully in the process. He made sure that his mindset was calm.

Suddenly, he heard a laugh behind him. “I finally caught up with you all. Brother, why are you wearing a mask? Is it because you’re too ugly and don’t dare to meet people with your true appearance?”

Zhang Ruochen turned around and was shocked.

The Dark Fool named Xiang Chunan had actually crossed the first level and caught up.

After all, this Dark Fool had claimed that he’d just arrived at the Truth Heavenly Domain, so it should be his first time crossing the Ocean of Truth.

The number of beings who could cross the first level on their first try could be counted on one hand. Not even Ling Feiyu could do it.

There were only two possibilities.

One, Dark Fool was lying. He hadn’t just arrived at the Truth Heavenly Domain and was just pretending to be stupid.

Second, he was amazingly strong.

The boat under him kept wobbling as if it was about to capsize. However, Chu Xiangnan’s legs were very thick. They were the size of an average man’s waist and didn’t waver while standing on the boat.

He didn’t use any Spiritual Power or even Holy Qi. He’s just using his physical strength to push down the Truth Boat so it won’t overturn. Is he a pure physical body cultivator? This thought appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s mind.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ruochen secretly pulled back his Spiritual Power to control the Truth Boat with physical power.

But in the span of one breath, the Truth Boat started shaking violently.

No, it’s going to overturn.

He quickly released Spiritual Power onto the Truth Boat and it finally steadied again.

I can’t even control the Truth Boat with my physical power, but he can come so far. Could he be stronger than me physically?

After that, Zhang Ruochen cruised forward while studying Xiang Chunan secretly.

Miraculously, he didn’t fall into the water even when they reached the second pass.

Now, only they were left in the second level. The other eight cultivators had all gone to the third level.

Xiang Chunan revealed his white teeth in a smile. “How come you’re so slow? Is it your first time too?”

“Second time.”

“How come you’re still so slow?” Xiang Chunan asked mindlessly.

“No hurry,” Zhang Ruochen said.

“Oh, that’s right. Why hurry? We’re competing to see who goes further, not who’s faster.”

Then Xiang Chunan yelled at the curtain of light, “Where’s the guardian? Come out and fight with your Lord Xiang!”

Poof!

The second guardian appeared out of the curtain of light. It wore silver armor and was still semi-transparent, but it had many silver bones.

Before the guardian could speak, Xiang Chunan had already punched.

“Oh?”

Zhang Ruochen realized that when Xiang Chunan punched, he only used physical strength, but many Rules of Truth appeared on his arm. This multiplied the power of his fist techniques.

At the same time, Rules of Truth appeared on his legs. They connected the Truth Boat with the Ocean of Truth tightly like tentacles.

He actually cultivated Rules of Truth and is quite advanced in it, but he’s still pretending to be stupid? Zhang Ruochen was confused.

Boom!

An intense fight erupted between Xiang Chunan and the second guardian. Many times, the Truth Boat under Xiang Chunan’s feet tilted to a shocking angle that couldn’t be saved and it seemed like he would definitely fall into the water.

But then, his body weight would change between heavy and light until the Truth Boat finally recovered.

After a hundred exchanges, Xiang Chunan produced an aggressive fist technique and shattered the guardian’s body.

“Haha!”

Xiang Chunan laughed heartily and looked at Zhang Ruochen. “Brother, I’ll head to the third level now. Good luck!”

Zhang Ruochen smiled and nodded.

After Xiang Chunan passed through the light, the second guardian condensed again. It hovered in the sky and stared at Zhang Ruochen. “Defeat me and pass into the third level,” it said emotionlessly.

“First move of the Luo Water Fist Technique, Heavenly River Split!” Zhang Ruochen didn’t add Rules of Fist Way into the technique. Instead, he punched with all his might and the precision of the technique.

Instantly, a dozen-meter-long heavenly river appeared. It glittered colorfully. Descending like a dragon, it fell onto the second guardian.

This strike only sent the guardian falling onto the surface of the sea.

“Second move of the Luo Water Fist Technique, Nine Twists and Turns.”

Boom!

The punch sent the guardian flying back. It struck the curtain of light heavily and turned into specks of light.

“Pass.”

A deep voice spread from the curtain of light.

Zhang Ruochen put away his bounding spiritual power and recomposed himself. The corner of his lips curled up. He steered the Truth Boat toward the curtain of light.

When he passed, his body trembled.

“Passed the second level. You received 1-10,000th of the Mysteries of Truth.”

This voice rang out in Zhang Ruochen’s head.

A gentle power rushed into the 144 apertures all over him, dissolving into specks of light that flowed through his meridians.

Finally, light covered his entire body.

He was both happy and confused. I’ve already reached the Saint King Realm and crossed the second level of the sea, and I can still receive Mysteries of Truth?

With his current cultivation, it wasn’t difficult to cross the second level at all.

Even so, he could still receive Mysteries of Truth. Then, wouldn’t many people be able to receive it? The Mysteries of Truth were only one whole number. It wasn’t enough at all.

Or was it that you would receive more after crossing more levels if you received it in the first level?

Zhang Ruochen couldn’t figure it out at all, but he didn’t have time to think about it now, because he’d come to the third level.

The wind in the third level was abnormally harsh. Dark currents flowed under the Truth Boat too.

The instant that he’d gotten distracted, the Truth Boat almost capsized.

Let’s stop caring about it. It’s an amazing thing to receive 1-10,000th of the Mysteries of Truth. I’ll probably be even faster at comprehending the Rules of Saintly Way now.

If he crossed the third level, he’d probably be able to continue receiving Mysteries of Truth.

His heart was filled with anticipation.

After entering the third level, the difficulty level shot up. The ten people who crossed together were still here.

What was different was that the Thousand Star Maiden, Feng Yan, and Blue Fang were already fighting with the third guardian. The other six were working hard at steering their boat to the third curtain of light.

Xiang Chunan’s Truth Boat had been shaking since the start. Now, it was as if he was dancing on the boat. He was in a mess and looked very pathetic.

However, his boat just wouldn’t flip over. It made the cultivators watching on land very nervous.

“Could that Dark Fool really be a strong figure who’s just pretending to be crossing for the first time?”

“Ha, have you ever seen anyone who could cross the second level on their first try? This person is definitely pretending.”

“The Dark Fool is very advanced in the Way of Truth. He can control more than 1,000 Rules of Truth and this might not even be his limit.”

A gleeful laugh rang out. “Look, that Dark Fool’s boat is about to overturn! Ha!”

“Flip over! Flip!”

Plop.

A Truth Boat in the third level overturned and someone fell into the sea.

However, it wasn’t Xiang Chunan. Instead, it was the third step Saint King with the highest cultivation. This man had crossed three miles in the third level.

Xiang Chunan steadied his boat again after some violent shaking.

The third step Saint King returned to the land and gazed at the nine Truth Boats in the sea. He let out a deep sigh, feeling disappointed. Of the ten people, he never would’ve thought that he would be the first one to fall into the sea.
