Li Wei was stunned by Harris’s explanation.

He asked in astonishment, "The Book of Genesis and the Book of Destruction... they actually exist?"

Harris shook his head. "I don’t know. No one does."

He smiled and said, "In fact, even with the Book of Truth, we can’t confirm if it’s the legendary ’book that records the present.’ ’Book of Truth’ is just what Mages decided to call it."

"But none of that is your concern."

"Alright, you may go in."

Harris stood at the entrance, letting Li Wei enter the grand hall by himself.

Li Wei nodded, bowed to Harris, and stepped into the grand hall.

The Grand Elder of the Space Tower had already been waiting in the grand hall for a long time.

As soon as Li Wei walked in, he saw a plain, unadorned book floating in the center of the hall.

The Grand Elder glanced at Li Wei.

Without any visible action from him, the large doors behind Li Wei slammed shut with a THUD.

Li Wei instinctively glanced back.

The Grand Elder said, "You may now read the Book of Truth."

Li Wei nodded and walked forward.

As he drew closer, Li Wei could see that the cover of the Book of Truth was adorned with images of insects, fish, birds, beasts, mountains, rivers, and plants.

It seemed to contain a record of all creation.

Li Wei reached out to open the Book of Truth. The instant he touched it, his consciousness was violently pulled into the world within the book.

The Grand Elder watched Li Wei, who stood motionless, eyes shut tight while holding the Book of Truth, his own expression unchanging.

In a daze, Li Wei came to his senses and found himself inside a massive library.

He looked around. The shelves were piled high with books.

Looking up, he couldn’t see where the shelves ended; they stretched all the way to the heavens.

Infinite and endless.

A prompt appeared in Li Wei’s mind.

Within this library that recorded the world’s truths, he could choose to "read" about any aspect of truth he wished.

However, the time was not infinite; it depended on Li Wei’s own abilities.

The more advanced the "truth" he chose to read, the greater the cost.

He might only scratch the surface before being forced out of the Book of Truth with nothing to show for it.

Therefore, the right choice was to select a "truth" that was appropriate for his own capabilities.

After a moment of thought, Li Wei chose to read about "flame."

A book flew down from a shelf and landed in front of Li Wei.

Just as Li Wei was about to open it, the book burst into flames, transforming into a ball of fire.

Li Wei was momentarily stunned. Feeling the drain on his Spiritual Power, he realized it had already begun.

Gazing at the burning flame, Li Wei felt as if he himself were a ball of fire, burning away.

He became the fire.

Li Wei began to comprehend the changing processes of combustion and the very essence of flame.

He used his Basic Level Flame Rule to analyze the fire.

New text appeared before his eyes.

The Extraordinary Ability attached to his Flame Lord trait separated, forming a brand new Extraordinary Trait of its own.

[Basic Level Flame Rule (Comprehending)] 1/10000

Li Wei’s expression shifted, and a smile spread across his face.

’If I can see the progress, this will be easy.’

’Time to grind!’

Before this, the Basic Level Flame Rule had always been a supplementary ability of the Flame Lord Extraordinary Trait.

It wasn’t an Extraordinary Ability that Li Wei had comprehended on his own.

It couldn’t be improved independently.

Its improvement was tied to the Level of the Flame Lord Extraordinary Trait.

But now, Li Wei had begun to comprehend the Flame Rule, transforming the Basic Level Flame Rule from a "Talent Ability of the Flame Lord" into an ability of his own.

This meant the Flame Rule could now be improved by grinding experience.

The Book of Truth played an incredibly important role in this process.

If the Book of Truth hadn’t revealed the Flame Rule to Li Wei, allowing him to experience and comprehend it in exhaustive detail, he would only be able to use the Basic Level Flame Rule like a Magic Beast uses its Talent Magic.

He would have little understanding of its essence and meaning.

Talent is profound and inexplicable.

But when a talent is converted into an ability or Skill, it can be continuously improved.

The significance of the Flame Rule becoming independent wasn’t just that it was now a separate Extraordinary Trait.

Its greatest significance was that the Flame Rule’s potential for growth was no longer limited.

Li Wei could grind the Flame Rule to the Middle Level, and then the High Level.

He could even grind it all the way to the Law Level.

This was a Path of Legend!

This was a path to godhood!

Li Wei seized the opportunity to comprehend the Flame Rule within the Book of Truth.

After an unknown amount of time, his Spiritual Power was completely depleted, and he was ejected from the "reading" state.

The Grand Elder of the Space Tower looked at Li Wei with some surprise. He hadn’t expected him to be able to read the Book of Truth for so long.

However, it wasn’t a complete shock.

The reading time was related to both the reader’s ability and their choice.

A weaker person reading about trivial, superficial truths could also read for a very long time, but the resulting improvement wouldn’t be significant.

A powerful person reading a profound truth, on the other hand, might only get a brief glimpse, yet that short time could bring about world-altering changes.

The Grand Elder didn’t ask Li Wei what he had read.

He said, "It is over. You may leave."

Hearing his voice, Li Wei came to his senses, bowed, and nodded. "Thank you, Grand Elder."

He turned and left.

After Li Wei left, the Grand Elder returned the Book of Truth to the President of the Mage Association.

When Li Wei walked out of the grand hall on the Seventh Floor, Harris was already gone.

He started down on his own.

Hazy text materialized before his eyes.

[Middle Level Flame Rule] 25/10000

After exiting the Book of Truth, the state of comprehension vanished.

It would be much harder for Li Wei to grind experience now.

Still, Li Wei was thrilled to have comprehended the Middle Level Flame Rule in a single session.

Even if it was harder, at least now he had hope, a direction, and a goal.

Sooner or later, he would be able to grind his way to the High Level Flame Rules.

Li Wei’s spirits soared.

"Li Wei."

As he was walking, Li Wei suddenly heard someone call his name.

He instinctively stopped and turned to look.

Victor was standing in a corner of the hallway, watching him.

When Li Wei saw him, he immediately knew what this was about.

’He’s here for the Purple Star Stone Crystal.’

After a moment’s consideration, Li Wei put on a smile and greeted Victor.

"Grand Mage Victor."

’Being evasive would just make me look guilty.’

’It’s better to face this head-on.’

’Besides, as long as I don’t admit anything, what’s he going to do? Rob me?’

Victor was an Elder of the Space Tower and a Tier Six Space Mage.

Though powerful, he wasn’t an invincible opponent in Li Wei’s eyes.

He had quite a few tricks up his sleeve for dealing with Tier Six opponents.

Therefore, Li Wei wasn’t afraid of Victor.

’If Victor dares to try anything shady, I wouldn’t mind making him disappear.’

Victor stared at Li Wei and said, "Come with me."

Li Wei was silent for a moment before following him.

’This is no time to show weakness.’

Victor led Li Wei to the fourth floor of the Space Tower.

Each floor of the Space Tower was its own independent space.

The fourth floor housed the research division, where a great deal of Magic research was conducted.

Outsiders were normally forbidden from entering.

Under Victor’s lead, Li Wei entered without being stopped.

Li Wei was puzzled. ’Why did he bring me here?’

’Is this a good place to make a move?’
