Chapter 79: Boundless (1/2)

“Back then, Tower mentioned that my sea of wisdom contains the Longevity Scripture. I have already completely opened up my 1st sea of wisdom layer, but I still cannot find the so-called cultivation technique. Could it be Tower had lied to me?” Chen Feng thought to himself.

“No. I have to carefully search my sea of wisdom. Tower said it is, so there must be a Longevity Scripture in my sea of wisdom. There is no reason for Tower to lie to me about something like this.” Having come to that conclusion, Chen Feng began utilizing every strand of his divine sense to comb his sea of wisdom. Divine sense was born from the sea of wisdom. However, while he had already fully opened up his 1st sea of wisdom layer, Chen Feng suddenly realized that he had yet to truly comprehend the wonders of the sea of wisdom.

“This kid. To only remember to comprehend the wonders of the sea of wisdom at this point in time. Seriously…” As Chen Feng was fully concentrated on his sea of wisdom, a faint voice rang out from the Longevity Tower deep within Chen Feng’s forehead. It was none other than Tower. All of Chen Feng’s thoughts earlier did not escape his notice.

“I wonder how far this kid can cultivate up to? Sigh, what a pity, what a pity! If only I weren’t so badly damaged back then, we would not have fallen to such a wretched situation. Hopefully, this kid is blessed by Lady Luck. Otherwise, forget being worried, I might end up getting refined as well.” Tower’s voice suddenly took on a slightly wistful tone.

Chen Feng, who was fully immersed within his sea of wisdom, was not able to hear those words. At that moment, Chen Feng was in the midst of sensing the wonders of the sea of wisdom. His divine sense gathered into a clump before flitting continuously through his sea of wisdom. Chen Feng felt like a fish, swimming leisurely through the vast sea. A mysterious energy filled his sea of wisdom. These energies were none other than the surrounding waters. Strand after strand of energy would be pulled out from them before condensing again and again to form strands of wondrous power. That wondrous power was none other than divine sense.

“I get it! I get it! In the past, I have not carefully studied the wonders of the sea of wisdom. Instead, I had only passively sucked out the divine sense from within it. In hindsight, the knowledge that the past me possessed was too superficial.” A feeling of epiphany suddenly bloomed within Chen Feng. Next, his divine sense, which had converged into a clump, abruptly spread out. Like sound waves, they continued to spread through every corner of his sea of wisdom as they searched through everything within the sea of wisdom.

Chen Feng felt as though his sea of wisdom was truly the equivalent of a boundless sea. Or perhaps, the limitless starry sky. With but a thought, he could cover every part of his sea of wisdom. It was a wondrous experience. By willing it, he could instantly move through a distance of tens of millions of li. It felt as though he had suddenly become an omnipotent creator of all (1 li = 0.5 km).

Shua! Shua! Shua!

Chen Feng could feel his divine sense sifting non-stop through his sea of wisdom, scanning through everything. However, after some time had passed, he was unable to find anything.

“Impossible! There is nothing?” Reaching that line of thought, Chen Feng cast out his net once more as he began searching his sea of wisdom again.

Chen Feng himself was unaware how long had passed. All he knew was that his divine sense had sifted through his sea of wisdom hundreds of times, perhaps more. In the end, however, he found nothing.

Although he had failed to find the Longevity Scripture, Chen Feng could feel himself becoming more proficient in the usage of divine sense. Additionally, he had comprehended some of its mysteries.

“That’s not right. There is nothing at all. It seems there is a need to ask Tower,” Chen Feng mumbled to himself.

“Kid, why are you so stupid? Can’t you go down and have a look?” Tower’s voice suddenly reverberated through the sea of wisdom.

“Down!” Chen Feng’s heart gave a thump. Next, his divine sense converged and he hastily descended to the bottom of his sea of wisdom.

There was a thick barrier at the bottom of the sea of wisdom. Unlike the layer of fog defending his sea of wisdom in the past, this barrier was the obstacle lying between the first layer and the second layer of his sea of wisdom. Only by breaking through this barrier can he enter the second layer of his sea of wisdom. At the same time, he would also break through to level 2 of the Concealed stage.

“Could it be here?” Chen Feng’s divine sense moved to land upon the surface of the barrier. When he did, he was visited by a feeling. The barrier was incomparably thick and was even more durable compared to the most durable of metals.

With a thought, Chen Feng’s divine sense suddenly converged together once more. Next, it spun rapidly. Like a drill, it shot down at the barrier.

Bang!

Chen Feng’s divine sense exploded, transforming into countless strands of silk, which spread apart. As for Chen Feng, he felt as though someone had smashed his head with an iron hammer. It was extremely unbearable.

“Sii! The barrier below is so durable, it is tens of times more durable compared to the layer of fog defending the sea of wisdom,” Chen Feng exclaimed. He quickly re-gathered his divine sense.

“I wonder when will I be able to condense out my own body. When my cultivation base reaches that point, I should be able to easily break this barrier.” Chen Feng thought to himself.

“Now, let’s search around.” Next, Chen Feng began searching the surface of the barrier. The barrier felt like a thick piece of rock, sturdy, thick and unbreakable. However, Chen Feng could faintly sense a huge power hidden beneath the barrier. Should the barrier be broken, that power would erupt out like a volcano.

After searching through nearly every part of the barrier’s surface, a book finally appeared before Chen Feng. “A book? How strange! How strange! How could there be a book in my sea of wisdom? Could this be the Longevity Scripture that Tower mentioned? If this is really the Longevity Scripture, who was the one who placed it here?” Various thoughts popped out from Chen Feng’s mind, filling him with shock and questions.

After that, Chen Feng’s divine sense reached for the book. The moment Chen Feng’s divine sense was about to make contact with the book, it shone with golden light and two words appeared on the surface of the book.

They were none other than the words: Longevity Scripture.

“As expected, the Longevity Scripture!” Chen Feng was shocked.

Bang!

The words Longevity Scripture abruptly scattered apart to transform into a clump of dazzling, flowing light. Next, the image of a middle-aged man appeared before Chen Feng.
