Wizard's Journey

Chapter 978 The Face of Truth, Phase Eight

Two years later.

"Master, in the laboratory on the nineteenth floor of the abyss, the Willow Vine of Time has refused to produce willow buds again."

The Taro Man appeared in the Green Void Mothership Laboratory. Now, nourished by the Life Spring of the Fern Root, it has not only broken through the shackles of the World Lord from a mere Level 3 plant, but has also evolved without hindrance all the way. It has now reached a terrifying vitality of 50032, becoming the most mysterious and powerful slave in the Green Secret Realm.

"understood."

Green nodded.

"It's a pity that we'll be missing one ingredient from our seasonings again. Oh well."

With that, Grimm waved his hand, signaling the Taro Man to leave. His calm face, weathered by time, reflected the flickering light of the magic lamp. His two-colored eyes, filled with excitement, fervor, and anticipation, gazed at the gray-white, paper-like alien marrow on the laboratory table. One of the eyes, about to be completely assimilated by Grimm's magic, was covered with sealing runes, making it incredibly mysterious.

"It's done! It's almost a success! The eighth phase of the Face of Truth Project, the Eye of the World!"

The Eye of the Deformed World struggled relentlessly, but was suppressed layer by layer by the numerous runes of the first seven phases of the Project on the Face of Truth, and sealed with the Energy Conservation Sealing Technique.

It's like an eye trapped in a distorted state, trying to break free of the mask, only to be constantly pulled back by it.

As Green laughed, the deformed Eye of the World gradually showed signs of fatigue, its struggles becoming smaller and smaller, as the surrounding gray-white alien marrow firmly imprisoned it.

After nearly two centuries of effort, the eighth phase of the Project to Conquer the Truth has been a success!

He couldn't wait to stretch out his right hand, his slender, fair fingers lightly touching the table. He channeled a stream of magic into it, and in an instant, the alien marrow on the table quickly shrank into a ball, transforming back into the gray-white spiral pattern of the Face of Truth. Only a vortex appeared in the center of his forehead, seemingly absorbing a person's soul, and a gray eye blinked eerily.

"Hehehehe, what kind of ability is the Eye of the World?"

Clutching this mysterious mask, which seemed to have become much heavier, and with the abilities on the mask becoming more numerous, stronger, and more and more beyond the imagination of lower life forms, it was now getting closer and closer to the epic-level magical artifact that the wizard Grimm had envisioned during his apprenticeship.

Green's ultimate goal is to elevate it to a supreme relic comparable to the Ring of Loss, the Lever of Fate, and the Eternal Sky City!

Closing his dual-colored eyes, the slight dampness on his face blended seamlessly with the Face of Truth, leaving no trace of abnormality.

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

"This is……"

Beyond the gray sky of the Tower of Annihilation's secret realm, in the endless void, a boundless galaxy stretches across the limits of Green's perception, dazzling and brilliant. This is a high-level rule phenomenon that Green has never perceived before!

Quickly removing the Mask of Truth, Grimm's two-colored eyes looked up at the sky again, only to find the Tower of Annihilation's secret realm shrouded in a hazy, murky gray.

"What is this? A deeper truth of the endless world?"

Shocked, Grimm, once again donning the Mask of Truth, left the semi-transparent void mothership composed of points and lines in his field of vision. The only part of the void mothership that gradually approached the dark matter reactor became increasingly blurry, as if it were obscured by a massive amount of energy.

Looking up at the sky, Green flew towards the endless Ganges starry sky in the face of truth.

call out……

Having broken through the Annihilation Realm, Green flew at full speed through the void, trying to see what the Ganges Starry Sky was all about, tirelessly moving forward.

Gradually, Green finally realized what was happening.

The distance between oneself and this Ganges starry sky is not the distance constituted by time and space in our understanding; it is the distance between appearance and truth. In the common explanation of lower beings, it is the distance between different dimensions. It is the realm that higher-dimensional beings, who cannot understand the endless world, can reach. That is their endless world.

"Is this the unique ability of the Eye of the World? Because the level of knowledge involved is too high, I am currently unable to explore, understand, or access it."

Having spent an unknown amount of time in the void gaining enlightenment, Green slowly turned around, intending to return to the wizarding world.

However, this time, Green was once again stunned by what he saw. There was even a slight panting sound under the face of truth, which was a human reaction of bewilderment and panic. As a Stigmata Wizard, Green was completely unaware of this and quietly looked at everything that was completely different in front of him!

The vast wizarding world that once existed in the traceless void floated like a giant capsule.

However, in Green's eyes at this moment, the wizarding world had turned into a vast gray sheet of paper, with countless rule runes flowing rapidly across the paper like ants, and dozens of small eyes constantly watching all directions.

The wizarding world that Grimm once saw as boundless and vast, like a capsule, has now become a flat piece of paper, floating in the endless void!

Are those eyes the Wizarding World Eyes of Zelat Port on the Eastern Coral Isle?

Have they undergone a substantial transformation within the profound mysteries of deep truth rules?

In the vast, gray world of Wizarding World, millions upon millions of fragments of paper float in all directions, all equally gray. One of these fragments feels particularly familiar to me: the secret realm of the Tower of Oblivion.

The deeper perception of truth brought about by the face of truth did not conform to the higher level of vision of Green's life. At this moment, Green felt not excitement, but fear!

This fear is akin to the fear of wandering in the unknown dimensional gap that one experiences when guided by the wizard Arowoz's crystal ball in the city lord's mansion during childhood.

Lower beings live within their own superficial, half-life, and true time, and their cognition remains at this stage. If they rashly try to experience the world of higher beings without having the corresponding life level to adapt to this perception, it's like a cricket in a box suddenly being thrown onto a crowded tax-filled deck...

"Let's go back."

With this thought in mind, Green, suppressing his silence, flew towards the gray piece of paper representing the secret realm of the Tower of Annihilation.

Watching his body gradually merge into the paper, with countless rules and runes flowing around him, this unprecedented feeling was indescribable.

Could it be that the reason why those sovereigns need to struggle for so long when they descend is to gradually peel away the runes and rules on the paper, creating a huge hole large enough for their true forms to merge into the paper?

The chaos of rules caused by the creation of this giant hole, coupled with the intrusion of rules it carries, is the root cause of the world's great catastrophe.

The Void Mothership's dark matter reactor was shrouded in a hazy gray, while the rest of the ship appeared as semi-transparent dots and lines, as if enhanced by ultrasonic detection.

The heart of each howling cockroach was even hotter, and even though it was hidden dozens of meters underground, the Face of Truth could see it clearly through the structured surface rock.

A gentle breeze blows by, and its energy patterns are clearly visible. The flow direction makes it easy to determine the process, just like a blueprint.

In contrast, the underground energy network is much more complex, becoming blurred at about 100 meters due to the layers of energy networks.

"Aside from a deeper analysis of the nature of matter and energy within the world, there doesn't seem to be much change. It's essentially an enhancement of the previous seven phases of the Truth Surface Project... Hmm!?"

In the Book of Truth, a strange black line connects to the unknown lands of the wizarding world.
