Chapter 437 - 225: Divine Level Unsolvable Mystery
Using Future Preview to see what happens after leveling up was actually quite strange.
This was because Future Preview had a minor drawback.
Lu Cang could only enter the future simulation in the state he was in before activating the preview.
As for professional advancement, if he hadn’t met the conditions for it before the preview, the result of any advancement within the simulation would also be an imperfect one.
Of course.
Even without a perfect advancement, he was still granted a Talent.
In his previews, Lu Cang had advanced all his professions. Although the advancements weren’t perfect, he had still obtained the corresponding Divine Talents.
However, this led to another question.
Was the Talent received from a normal advancement different from one received from a perfect advancement?
Or, were the Talents obtained in previews and in reality inherently different?
Random factors existed in this world.
For example, random teleportation and opening treasure chests... Lu Cang had tried opening a treasure chest in a future preview.
But he found that even for the same chest, the items obtained in a preview and in reality were completely different.
And the disparity between them was enormous.
It was like getting a great "Red Quality" item in the preview, only to return to reality, open it, and...
’Damn, it’s only "Green Quality"?’
This taught Lu Cang that random treasure chests were truly random; their contents weren’t determined ahead of time.
Yakadikto’s randomness was truly fickle...
So, was the Talent he obtained in the preview random or predetermined?
Lu Cang wanted to test this theory.
Level 5 Decryption Scholar
His mind felt more open and clear.
Lu Cang felt he could now solve any puzzle from Difficulty Levels 1 to 4 without even having to think.
At the same time, Lu Cang felt a hazy sea of mist forming within his mind.
Starting from Level 5.
All Reincarnators would become aware of their own Sea of Consciousness.
The Sea of Consciousness was not a sea in the traditional sense, but rather a region of consciousness constructed by the individual.
Being able to perceive it only at Level 5 did not mean the Sea of Consciousness didn’t exist before then.
It was like the human brain. A person cannot directly see what their own brain looks like, nor can they perfectly control its activity.
But it exists all the same.
The Sea of Consciousness was the same.
Lu Cang perceived the hazy mist. It was all a manifestation of his own consciousness, but because this was his first time visiting and it had never been organized, his Sea of Consciousness appeared chaotic and messy.
Level 5 Decryption Scholar Professional Mastery—Memory Palace: *The Sea of Consciousness gains a Memory Palace. All past scenes can be imprinted within the Memory Palace and replayed.*
’A Memory Palace, huh.’
He had heard that after reaching Level 5, one would inevitably obtain a Professional Mastery related to the Sea of Consciousness, and each person’s was different.
The Memory Palace solidified within his Sea of Consciousness, forming a vast palace amidst the mist.
The palace’s interior space seemed infinite. Lu Cang stepped inside.
He felt that the way memories were presented in this palace could be changed through his own will.
Scene after scene from the past replayed before his eyes.
Rows upon rows of giant bookshelves also rose up within the palace, storing countless books and texts he had read.
There was nothing in particular he needed to recall right now, so Lu Cang withdrew his consciousness from the Sea of Consciousness.
Level 5 Decryption Scholar Professional Mastery—The World’s Deeper Truths (Exclusive): *When encountering truths that approach the essence of the world, you are able to see a clearer, more complete picture.*
’I have indeed come into contact with some very deep things recently.’
’Those things should count as the world’s deeper truths, shouldn’t they?’
Besides the two Professional Masteries.
Lu Cang also obtained the Level 5 Decryption Scholar’s professional Skills.
"Multi-Layer Encryption" and "Clever Breakthrough."
"Multi-Layer Encryption" was an encryption Skill that could drastically increase the encryption level.
Moreover, the structural integrity of the encrypted object would also be enhanced.
If applied to structures like locks, doors, or Restrictions, they would also become more difficult to break through by force.
As for the "Clever Breakthrough" Skill, it allowed him to find the weak points in defenses and Restrictions.
After finding a weak point, the Skill made it easier to break through with an attack.
Lu Cang didn’t really need its ability to break Restrictions.
Although a Level 5 Decryption Scholar supposedly had no combat power, in reality, they could now provide some assistance in battle.
Lu Cang assessed the changes in himself.
’In terms of pure combat, I should be able to beat a Level 2 Warrior now, right?’
It wasn’t as pathetic as having absolutely no combat power. Pari must have been lying back then when she said he couldn’t even beat a Slime.
And then, there was the Talent.
Talent Acquired: Tweaker (Exceptional) >> Divine Level Unsolvable Mystery
*From this moment on, become an Unsolvable Mystery. All answers shall be unknowable.*
’This Talent...’
Lu Cang felt himself become obscure.
In that same instant, it was as if he could sense every record about him that existed in the world.
In the Life Church, in the Lorren Kingdom, in the archives of the Death Church, even on Tengge’s black server, on a piece of blood-red human skin in Moon Sea, his name was smeared, on a pure white wall in Moon Sea, a sword gash also cut through his name, in the Divine Halls of the Churches of Light, Darkness, Cold, and Luck... there were various records, the Mage Association’s records, the faculty files of Lorentz Magic Academy...
He exhaled slowly.
Lu Cang felt the name on all these records become blurry and indistinct.
