Chapter 524 The Library

The narrative layer itself is not invincible, let alone in this world of multi-dimensional works where organizations possessing narrative layer abilities exist.

"If I relied solely on myself, I would surely become another exhibit in the Foundation's containment collection..."

Fang Ming shook his head. The extremely dangerous aura was approaching, and his current avatar would undoubtedly be unable to resist it. Therefore, he could only choose to call for Fumeng.

When Fumeng's assistance arrived, Fang Ming's figure instantly evaded the Foundation's containment strike, no longer under their control.

This not only shattered the worldview of the strong individuals from various dimensions once again.

In the unknown space, independent of all the worlds, the O5 Council members' faces also turned somber.

"Containment has failed..."

"No traces can be found! No tracks can be followed!"

"It's exactly the same as the last containment failure."

"There must be another SCP assisting him."

"The SCP's designation, tentatively, is Ω-39180."

"A SCP of the highest divinity?"

"Yes, it deserves that rating."

...

Fourteen-star rated work world.

The Primordial World.

Rooted in the conceptual foundation of the Primordial World, a realm called the Divine Realm branched upwards.

The Divine Realm.

Early morning.

The ringing of a bell sounded.

Fang Ming naturally reached out and turned off the alarm clock beside him.

He got out of bed automatically and went to brush his teeth and wash his face.

While brushing his teeth, Fang Ming's mind was still filled with the impressions of the dream he had last night.

"In my dream, I killed the Profound Heaven Dao Venerable sent by the Temporal Bureau, a cultivator at the Supreme Human realm, and in front of the strong individuals of all dimensions, I displayed the power of reality suppressing illusion, which then attracted the Foundation's SCPs to eliminate me?"

"It's a pity I didn't get to unleash a set of reality's power against illusion upon those O5 council members... Though even if I killed them, it might have only been their avatars, or perhaps their very existence is merely a projection of a higher narrative onto a lower one..."

"It's very difficult to succeed in killing them."

"Therefore, there is no need for regret."

Fang Ming, brushing his teeth and washing his face in front of the mirror, had some recollection of the dream from last night. He also knew that it wasn't fake, but something that had truly happened in the Sea of Void.

After reaching the Divine Realm, although Fang Ming still had a connection with his avatars, he no longer paid constant attention to them. After all, the Fang Ming in the lower realms had limitless thought, capable of spanning infinite dimensions and maintaining a shared connection with countless avatars.

But in this Divine Realm, Fang Ming was just an ordinary person, at most a low-level transcendent. How could he possibly maintain simultaneous contact with these countless avatars?

Not to mention that Fang Ming needed to sleep.

During sleep, only the actions of some avatars occasionally caused Fang Ming to dream about them.

In reality, Fang Ming only experienced a small portion of that dream. Apart from remembering the specific events, the other details had become blurred.

In that battle, both the Foundation and Fang Ming had mastered methods of the higher narrative, capable of striking illusion with reality through the narrative layer. However, it was ultimately a narrative layer limited by the eighteen-star system and the Box Theory, not the supernatural narrative layer of Fumeng that was detached from the eighteen-star system.

Bound by the eighteen-star cultivation system, the narrative layer established by the rules of the Myriad Worlds楼主 (Myriad Worlds楼主) and the narrative layer truly detached from that system, not calculated by the Box Theory, naturally had an infinite gap...

This is the gap between being trapped by a system and being free from it...

After Fang Ming finished brushing his teeth, Lin Feng and the others had also woken up.

"Fang Ming, let's go have breakfast together."

"You've just arrived at the academy, you probably don't know where the cafeteria is. I'll take you."

Lin Feng invited Fang Ming.

Fang Ming indeed didn't know where the cafeteria was, so he gladly accepted Lin Feng's invitation and followed the group.

The dream from last night didn't pose a more important problem than breakfast.

Wasn't it just a multi-dimensional work world with only a five-box level, and the conflicts within its myriad worlds?

It was obvious that the outcome of this struggle, the benefits to be gained, were not as valuable as learning more about the Divine Realm. It was just going for breakfast.

In the Divine Realm, a single grain of rice dropped into the lower realm was a top-tier treasure of the twelve-star level.

Stepping out of the dormitory, Fang Ming didn't need to change his clothes, as he had slept in the standard uniform of Purple Cloud Academy. He didn't need to change when going out.

This also saved some unnecessary time.

This might be the benefit of the academy's regulations.

Lin Feng led Fang Ming through the academy towards the cafeteria, introducing him to several important buildings along the way.

"That tall, pointed building over there, over a hundred stories high, is our academy's library."

"Many theoretical texts, especially those related to transcendent knowledge, are kept there."

"Brother Fang Ming, you lack transcendent knowledge and are unfamiliar with it. You can visit the library more often when you have free time and thoroughly read a few books that cover a wide range of transcendent knowledge."

Lin Feng introduced the library to Fang Ming and then pointed to another tall building, saying to Fang Ming:

"The building behind the library is the Hall of Bestowal."

"The Hall of Bestowal is different from the library. The library only contains some basic transcendent theoretical knowledge, covering minerals, herbs, meridians, artifact refining... and other comprehensive subjects."

"It looks very tall, over a hundred stories, but it only contains basic theoretical knowledge. Therefore, any student of the academy can enter and exit freely."

"However, the Hall of Bestowal contains a large number of genuine cultivation methods, including those for the Qi Yuan realm, Bi Gong realm, and even more powerful transcendent cultivation methods."

"There are always strong individuals from the academy stationed there. To enter, you either need to contribute to the academy and use contribution points, or you need to use the privileges of an elite class student."

As Lin Feng spoke, his eyes showed a look of envy for entering the Hall of Bestowal.

He clearly coveted the powerful cultivation methods within. The cultivation methods collected by Purple Cloud Academy were not of low grade; in the outside world, they would be treasured heirlooms of ordinary noble families.

If Lin Feng could cultivate such a method, he felt that his chances of reaching Qi Yuan level ten within a year would greatly increase.

It was simply unattainable, hence the envy and helplessness in Lin Feng's eyes.

The library and the Hall of Bestowal?

Fang Ming glanced at the tall, hundred-story building.

He didn't envy the Hall of Bestowal, as his current status did not allow him to enter.

Nor was it something Fang Ming urgently needed.

With Fang Ming's current status, he could enter the library freely. While the basic transcendent knowledge in the library might seem useless to others who already had a complete system of learning, for Fang Ming, it was precisely what he urgently needed.
