Next, I’ll have to spend most of my time on the Way of Sword, Time and s.p.a.ce, 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 s.p.a.ce.

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 G.o.dly Palace. Comprehending the Ways of Time and s.p.a.ce 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 G.o.dly 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 G.o.dly Palace disciples. Two of them were G.o.dly disciples. They were clearly much more advanced and were responsible for testing, accepting, and making arrangements for incoming cultivators.

One of the G.o.dly 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 G.o.dly disciple in the distance.

“So fast!”

The other G.o.dly 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.

“Yes.”

Feng Xi’s pupils constricted involuntarily. “But I remember that you’ve only cultivated for around one month in the Truth G.o.dly 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 G.o.dly 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 G.o.dly 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 G.o.dly 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 G.o.dly 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.
