I Have an All-Knowing Mirror

Chapter 176: Su Yuan's Intelligence

Dongyou Cosmic Human Empire.

As one of the thirty-six major cosmic human empires, the Dongyou Cosmic Human Empire was located adjacent to one of the most terrifying secret realms, "The Abyss".

It was said that the first Empire Ruler of the Dongyou Cosmic Human Empire had obtained a tremendous fortuitous encounter within "The Abyss". Only after returning to the human race did they establish the Dongyou Cosmic Human Empire.

Meanwhile.

Within the core star sector of the Dongyou Cosmic Human Empire, on a life-bearing planet.

Chaxi Zhuiyuan opened his eyes, a look of astonishment appearing on his face. "How can this be?"

Dying at Su Yuan's hands in the Divine Body World was not entirely surprising to Chaxi Zhuiyuan.

After all, the latter was a Tier 9 Expert who had already mastered a spatial-type divine body secret method.

What truly shocked Chaxi Zhuiyuan was that in his final, desperate moment, when he triggered the power of the abyss deep within his eyes, it was utterly crushed and swept away by another, even more terrifying power.

The power of the abyss originated from a certain force within The Abyss. This was the very foundation of the Dongyou Cosmic Human Empire's Zhuiyuan Lineage. Let alone a Late-stage Starry Sky Life, even a Stellar Life Form would have to deal with it cautiously.A single misstep carried the risk of corruption.

And once corrupted by the power of the abyss, it would directly affect one's Mental Will.

This was merely in the Divine Body World. If it were in reality, the power of the abyss would be even more terrifying and difficult to handle.

"That power... is it also a divine body secret method?"

Chaxi Zhuiyuan thought carefully. He remembered that the force which ultimately crushed the power of the abyss manifested as a purely golden, vertical eye looking down upon him.

"Hmm?"

Chaxi Zhuiyuan's expression suddenly shifted.

Immediately, his consciousness re-entered the Virtual Network, arriving at his Personal Space.

Xuan Ming and dozens of other figures were already waiting there.

They had died first, so they had all gathered here.

"Eldest Brother Chaxi is here?"

"Eldest Brother Chaxi, what happened in the end?"

These dozens of figures were naturally the many Tier 7 Experts who had traveled together to Luoyang City, intending to seek revenge for Xuan Ming.

Chaxi Zhuiyuan glanced at the crowd and shook his head slightly, not saying much.

Seeing this, Xuan Ming and the others instantly fell silent.

It was obvious that Chaxi Zhuiyuan, just like them, had died at the hands of the Wu Pavilion Master.

"The Wu Pavilion Master from the Void Shattering World..."

Someone had already started searching for information regarding the Wu Pavilion Master.

Suddenly, their eyes widened.

"One week ago, he achieved Void Shattering ascension from the Void Shattering Evolution World..."

Di Fansi found it hard to believe.

The fact that this Wu Pavilion Master was a Tier 9 Expert, and one who had mastered a spatial-type divine body secret method at that, did not overly surprise Di Fansi.

After all, as direct descendants of major factions within the Dongyou Cosmic Human Empire, they had seen their fair share of Tier 9 Experts, some of whom had mastered spatial-type divine body secret methods.

The thirty-six major cosmic human empires produced countless peerless geniuses and monsters. An additional Tier 9 Expert mastering a spatial-type divine body secret method was not too unusual.

However.

According to the information on the Wu Pavilion Master, the other party was still in the Void Shattering World just a week ago.

The Void Shattering World was meant for Initial-Realm and Mid-stage Starry Sky Lifeforms.

In other words, that Wu Pavilion Master was only a Mid-stage Starry Sky Lifeform a week ago.

Even if he immediately broke through to become a Late-stage Starry Sky Life after shattering the void and ascending.

To enter the Divine Body World in such a short time, to not only cultivate from Divine Body Initiation to Perfected Divine Body, but to go even further and possess the strength of a Tier 9 Expert, all while mastering a spatial-type divine body secret method...

What kind of freakish monster was this?

Everyone looked at each other, completely speechless for a moment.

Xuan Ming's expression was incredibly complex. He had actually wanted to seek revenge against such an abnormal monster.

"This Wu Pavilion Master has mastered at least two divine body secret methods. One is a spatial-type divine body secret method, and the other is no weaker than a spatial-type secret method..."

Chaxi Zhuiyuan remained silent for a moment before speaking slowly.

That purely golden vertical eye that had crushed his power of the abyss at the very end definitely came from another terrifying divine body secret method.

"Another divine body secret method?"

Xuan Ming and the others trembled slightly in their hearts.

A spatial-type divine body secret method alone was already enough to completely crush them. But it turned out there was another divine body secret method not inferior to the former.

"Eldest Brother Chaxi, what should we do now?"

Di Fansi could not help but ask.

"What should we do?"

Chaxi Zhuiyuan looked around. "Don't tell me you still want revenge?"

"Naturally, we wouldn't dare."

Di Fansi suddenly shivered.

The rest of the crowd immediately shook their heads as well.

Although they did not care about the minor cost of remolding their divine bodies, naturally no one was willing to engage in an action that amounted to throwing their lives away.

"I will log this Wu Pavilion Master's intelligence into the 'Heavenly Secret Pavilion' of the Divine Body World. You must absolutely dismiss any thoughts of provoking him again."

Chaxi Zhuiyuan spoke, his words serving as both advice and a warning.

The Heavenly Secret Pavilion was a special organization in the Divine Body World, formed by star-sector-level factions from the various major cosmic human empires.

The Heavenly Secret Pavilion did not participate in conflicts; it solely recorded intelligence on powerful experts within the Divine Body World.

This was also a way for star-sector-level factions to share information with one another.

"Understood."

Xuan Ming and the other powerful experts immediately nodded.

Provoke the Wu Pavilion Master?

They couldn't hide from him fast enough now. Who would dare to provoke him?

In the sky above Luoyang City.

With a subtle shift of his thoughts, the miniature space hovering above Su Yuan's palm rapidly dissipated.

"The Abyss..."

When he crushed Chaxi Zhuiyuan's power of the abyss, various pieces of intelligence concerning The Abyss inevitably surfaced in Su Yuan's mind.

Buzz— An invisible, profound aura slowly coalesced. In a daze, it seemed as though a bottomless, dark abyss was manifesting right before Su Yuan's eyes.

"Hmm?"

Su Yuan reacted instantly, directly activating the Starry Sky Contemplation Method to suppress the formless abyss with the vast starry sky.

The Starry Sky Contemplation Method was the successor to the Star Contemplation Method, and also one of the most powerful contemplation methods for the Starry Sky Lifeform stage.

'Sometimes, knowing too much isn't a good thing,'

Su Yuan thought silently to himself after sweeping away the phantom of the abyss.

The boundless universe held too many secrets, and among those secrets were certain forbidden ones.

Such forbidden secrets were not merely hidden knowledge; they carried a kind of Karma. Merely knowing them would attract the gaze of certain entities.

For instance, Su Yuan had learned some of the secrets within The Abyss through the gray mirror.

These forbidden secrets posed no issue for the gray mirror itself, but once Su Yuan knew them, he would form Karma with The Abyss, thereby becoming subject to its influence.

The same applied to the names and information of certain unimaginable entities.

As long as Su Yuan recalled them in his mind, he would draw the gaze of the sources behind those names and information.

However, the gray mirror had also provided a solution—suppress and eradicate them using the Starry Sky Contemplation Method.

With the marvelous utility of the Starry Sky Contemplation Method, as long as Su Yuan did not deeply ponder the specific details and hidden secrets of any unfathomable existence, he would be fine.

Reining in his thoughts, Su Yuan focused his attention on his gains.

This time, he had suppressed dozens of Tier 7 Experts, including Chaxi Zhuiyuan, a Tier 8 Expert.

He had acquired dozens of beneficial Great Cycles of Universal Power. This was exactly what Su Yuan wanted.

'These dozens of Great Cycles of Universal Power will significantly advance my own Great Cycle of Yin-Yang and Five Elements.'

A smile emerged on Su Yuan's face.

Although he had yet to fully comprehend and absorb these Great Cycles of Universal Power, through the gray mirror, he could already see the resulting progress from absorbing them.

Whoosh!

Su Yuan took a step forward.

He arrived back inside the City Lord's Mansion.

"Lord."

The Luoyang City Lord was startled and immediately approached with utmost caution.

"There's no need to worry. It's all been resolved,"

Su Yuan said in a calm tone.

"It's all been resolved?"

A chill ran down the Luoyang City Lord's spine. Although Su Yuan did not state it explicitly, he knew the "resolved" subjects were the multitude of experts who had just arrived with such aggressive momentum.

The Luoyang City Lord had originally suspected that the disappearance of those experts was Su Yuan's doing. Now that it was confirmed, the shock in his heart practically overflowed.

'It really was him!'

'It really was him!'

"Lord, those people... they won't continue coming for revenge, right?"

The Luoyang City Lord steadied his nerves and subconsciously blurted out the question.

"Continue coming for revenge?"

Su Yuan paused for a moment before shaking his head. "They won't be coming back."

According to the feedback provided by the gray mirror, those dozens of experts had already classified him as an entity absolutely not to be provoked.

Forget about seeking revenge; they wouldn't even dare to come near him.

If that weren't the case, Su Yuan would have planned to continue using himself as bait to fish for more of them.

"Good..."

The Luoyang City Lord was slightly dazed but quickly responded.

Within Luoyang City, a massive uproar similarly broke out.

After all, the auras of Xuan Ming and the dozens of other experts had blotted out the sky, yet the moment Su Yuan appeared, they completely vanished. Anyone who wasn't a fool could easily deduce that it had to do with Su Yuan.

Inside the Patrol Department.

Numerous Patrol Officers trembled inwardly, while the Chief of the Patrol Department felt incredibly fortunate.

'If I hadn't reacted quickly enough to change my tune back then, how could I have possibly survived?'

At the Bai Family.

The previous Patriarch of the Bai Family was not alarmed, but rather overjoyed.

The stronger Su Yuan became, the greater the benefits for the Bai Family.

Regardless of anything else, Su Yuan originated from the Bai Family. As the saying goes, before beating a dog, one must look at its master. Even if Su Yuan did not care about the Bai Family at all, with the strength he had displayed, absolutely no one in Luoyang City would dare to cross the Bai Family.

The Bai Family didn't dare to throw Su Yuan's name around to bully others, but even without doing so, simply relying on their association with him would yield endless benefits.

"Brother Shilin, he..."

Bai Housu, who had just succeeded the position of Patriarch, fully realized where his current status came from.

If not for Su Yuan, he would still be targeted by Bai Tianshu, unable to move a single step from the very bottom of the Bai Family hierarchy.

Su Yuan re-entered the cultivation room and sat cross-legged.

"Space, Yin, Water..."

Su Yuan immediately began to Fully Comprehend the first Great Cycle of Universal Power.

This Great Cycle of Universal Power was composed of three types of Cosmic Force: space, Yin, and water, among which was the exceptionally rare Spatial Power.

Space and time were the most difficult Cosmic Forces to comprehend. Time, in particular, was incredibly illusory. For a Starry Sky Lifeform to Fully Comprehend the power of time? It was tantamount to a fantasy.

In reality, Spatial Power and the power of time were virtually equivalent to a kind of supreme power. There was absolutely no need to Fully Comprehend them entirely; grasping even a slight hint was already the absolute limit for a Starry Sky Lifeform.

"With my current Great Cycle of Yin-Yang and Five Elements, if I add space to it, in terms of stability..."

Su Yuan circulated the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art, beginning to devour the various Great Cycles of Universal Power one by one, merging them into his own.

This fusion did not increase the sheer quantity of Cosmic Force, but rather expanded the breadth and depth of the Great Cycle of Yin-Yang and Five Elements.

Whoosh— As the various Great Cycles of Universal Power merged in, Su Yuan felt the Yin-Yang Five Elements Cosmic Energies composing his divine body become increasingly profound, harmonizing even further with the surrounding world.

'This is the sign of a divine body transcending its limits,'

Su Yuan thought to himself.

The so-called transcending of limits meant breaking the inherent shackles of the divine body itself.

For example, a divine body constructed from five types of Cosmic Force would instantly possess the strength of a Tier 6 Expert upon reaching the Perfected Divine Body stage.

And breaking past Tier 6 to step into Tier 7 was the act of breaking the divine body's inherent shackles.

'I should be close to stepping into Tier 9.'

Su Yuan knew it in his heart.

The gray mirror had long since informed him of the exact time he would break through to Tier 9.

'Once I step into Tier 9, combined with having absorbed so many Great Cycles of Universal Power, my strength will directly reach the absolute peak of Tier 9. At that time, I will be qualified to vie for many of the fortuitous encounters in this world.'

Su Yuan pondered silently in his heart.

Compared to the members of those major factions, he had no helpers. He could only rely on himself, and his sole dependable asset was absolute strength.

Eastern Barrens, Canghai Pavilion.

Canghai Pavilion was a faction established by the Xien Family of the Canglan Cosmic Human Empire.

On the lands of the Eastern Desolation, Canghai Pavilion boasted quite a reputation. After all, in reality, the Xien Family was a super faction ranked within the top hundred of the Canglan Cosmic Human Empire.

Canghai Pavilion's fame had been hard-won through the efforts of generations of Late-stage Starry Sky Lifeforms from the Xien Family.

'Why hasn't Wu come to find me at Canghai Pavilion yet?' Heven Cien, having just experienced a brutal battle, was resting inside Canghai Pavilion.

Heven Cien was precisely the first Pavilion Master of the Azure Wave Pavilion in the Void Shattering World.

After shattering the void and ascending, Heven Cien had sought Su Yuan out a few times to catch up, during which he invited Su Yuan to enter the Divine Body World.

'Wu told me that he would come to the Divine Body World once, and that he would descend in the Eastern Barrens...' Heven Cien suddenly felt a twinge of worry in his heart. 'Could he have run into some kind of trouble?'

Although Su Yuan had displayed absolutely invincible strength in the Void Shattering World.

The Divine Body World was entirely different from the Void Shattering World; the former was vastly more dangerous than the latter.

Su Yuan had constructed his Great Cycle of Universal Power using seven types of Cosmic Force. The Perfected Divine Body he formed would inherently possess the strength of a Tier 8 Expert.

However, in the Divine Body World, progressing from Divine Body Initiation to Perfected Divine Body for the very first time required a tremendous amount of time.

There was no telling what problems might arise during that period.

'I'll go find Wu for a chat later...'

Heven made a decision in his heart.

'Has the intelligence information from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion updated?'

Heven's expression subtly shifted as he saw the information notification from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.

The Heavenly Secret Pavilion was a special information-sharing faction established in the Divine Body World by star-sector-level organizations from the cosmic human empires.

The Xien Family had barely reached the threshold of a star-sector-level faction, so naturally, they also enjoyed the information notifications from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.

'The latest intelligence... On the lands of the Eastern Desolation, thirty-three Peak Tier 8 Experts and six Tier 9 Experts have newly emerged. Among them, one Tier 9 Expert has even mastered a spatial-type divine body secret method, as well as a top-tier offensive secret method no weaker than a spatial-type secret method...'

Heven quickly scanned through the intelligence report, his eyes falling upon the information regarding that final Tier 9 Expert.
