[The Direct Vision Great Sage points his staff at you. You understand that this battle is now unavoidable and likewise raise the Scarlet King’s Sword, its tip aimed at the enemy.]

[The many Scholars have witnessed the ferocity of your sword that instantly slew a Grand Scholar and know that your strength is extremely great. But the one you are facing is the Branch Association President, the Great Sage standing at the peak above thousands of Scholars, a great figure only one step away from advancing into a god.]

[No matter how strong you are, it is impossible for you to rival the Direct Vision Great Sage.]

[They all show an expression of watching a good show, waiting for you to suffer a crushing defeat and beg for mercy under the Great Sage’s spells.]

Lin Xun knew that when facing a mighty mage, he absolutely had to strike first and never give the opponent a chance to chant and unleash their ultimate skill.

He immediately clicked his strongest current skill, Bloodthirsty Judgement.

Lin Xun still held one thought in his heart. When he had taken down that Grand Scholar guard earlier, the Beast of Disordered Knowledge had not appeared.

But now he was fighting against the Direct Vision Great Sage. If that one was still watching him, it would definitely send down the watchdog to stop the two from fighting.

As long as the watchdog appeared, it would prove his identity as the True God’s Envoy.

[In an instant, endless blood light bursts out from the Scarlet King’s Sword in your hand, dyeing the faces of the many Scholars red.]

[The bloodthirsty, savage aura is unleashed completely with you as the center.]

[The incomparably powerful pressure forces the Scholars to retreat again and again. Faced with such terrifying power, they cannot help but show expressions of fear.]

[You turn into a streak of blood colored shooting light and the end of that scarlet impact is the cold eyed Direct Vision Great Sage.]

[He has not the slightest fear of your ferocious attack. Raising his staff high, countless tiny characters appear out of thin air and condense into an almost tangible Knowledge Barrier in front of him.]

[The Bloodthirsty Judgement that can pierce through all enemies this time fails to break through the barrier and is firmly stopped before it.]

[You feel as if you have crashed into an iron wall. The sword tip is unable, as in the past, to instantly tear apart the enemy’s defense.]

[The blood colored shooting star continues to drive forward, but its advance is incomparably slow, like a snail crawling.] 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

[Faced with this extremely thick Knowledge Barrier, even if you exhaust all the power of Bloodthirsty Judgement, you might still not be able to break the barrier’s defense.]

[Complicated and lengthy chanting sounds come from behind the barrier. At some unknown point, the Direct Vision Great Sage has already raised his staff high and begun chanting the spell incantation.]

[With the top demigod level strength of the Direct Vision Great Sage, he can instant cast the vast majority of knowledge type spells, and any spell that makes him take time to chant a long incantation must be an ultimate secret spell with the greatest possible might.]

[You grit your teeth and do not stop battering the barrier. As long as you can break the barrier before the Great Sage finishes chanting, you will be able to kill him in a single blow.]

[…]

[As the power of Bloodthirsty Judgement gradually fades, the impact of the scarlet shooting star also grows weaker, and by the time the Direct Vision Great Sage intones the last syllable of his spell, you have still not broken through the defensive magic.]

[Countless flashing characters surge and gather upon the tip of the Direct Vision Great Sage’s staff like a raging tide.]

[The vast and terrifying spell power makes the entire workshop faintly tremble. The many onlooking Scholars hurry backward in panic, afraid of being caught up in the terrifying spell, while at the same time shouting excitedly, It is Endless Flood of Knowledge!]

[Locked onto by this ultimate knowledge type spell secret, you are unable to dodge or escape and can only watch helplessly as this extreme spell power is about to erupt upon you.]

Lin Xun could not help grinding his teeth.

“Damn it. Beast of Disordered Knowledge, if you still do not show up, I am going to die here.”

[Right at this moment, the binding power on Coleman seems to weaken. Sensing that he can move his limbs again, he immediately takes out a refined copper device.]

[Light flickers on the refined copper device and a Knowledge Barrier of unimaginable solidity appears in front of you to shield you from the ultimate fearsome spell that is about to arrive.]

[Dazzling light fills your vision. With his staff pointed at you, that extremely powerful, terrifying force pours out and turns into an unstoppable flood that sweeps toward you.]

[If not for the Knowledge Barrier blocking your front, you would have been devoured entirely by this violent power in an instant.]

[But even the indestructible Knowledge Barrier cannot completely withstand this ultimate knowledge type spell secret. The barrier visibly dissolves and shatters.]

[You let out a shout as tremendous power floods your body. Raising the Scarlet King’s Sword, you advance instead of retreating, fearlessly lifting your sword to meet Endless Flood of Knowledge.]

[As the barrier shatters, that terrifying, rampaging spell power engulfs you in the blink of an eye.]

[The many Scholars, their eyes stabbed by the intense light, cannot help closing them tightly and are unable to see the details of the battle. They can only hear your unwilling, furious roars.]

[…]

[Finally, the light dies and the flood recedes. You collapse on the ground covered in horrific wounds from head to toe. Your injuries are so severe that you cannot even manage to raise your hand slightly.]

[You have suffered an almost fatal injury.]

[The Direct Vision Great Sage gives a cold smile and strides to your side, taking out a Book Containing Illusion.]

[He has deliberately controlled the power of Endless Flood of Knowledge so as not to blast you to death here, precisely because he does not want you to die so easily. He intends to use the torment of the Time Prison to cruelly torture you.]

[Coleman immediately stretches out his thick refined copper arm and blocks in front of you to protect you, shielding you from the Direct Vision Great Sage.]

[He hurriedly cries out, Great Sage, stop. This man truly is the envoy sent down by Omniscient True Knowledge.]

[The Direct Vision Great Sage says coldly that the master has used the barrier magic formation he painstakingly carved, combined with the crafted Barrier Defense Device, upon this evil heretic, which is already a profaning of the true Lord.]

[He hopes that the master will calm down and stop remaining obstinately deluded, unknowingly bewitched by the evil heretic.]

[Coleman retorts that the way the Great Sage is treating the True God’s Envoy is what profanes their Lord. The Great Prophet once prophesied that…]

[Before he can finish, the Direct Vision Great Sage cuts him off, saying that the master keeps claiming this person is the True God’s Envoy, so he would like to ask whether the master still remembers how the prophecy described the True God’s Envoy.]

[Coleman nods without thinking and says he of course remembers. The Great Prophet once prophesied that the True God’s Envoy was not restricted in outward form and might be a swordsman, or a Scholar, or even a nameless farmer in the countryside.]

[You cannot judge who is the True God’s Envoy from appearance alone, but the True God’s Envoy has two traits that absolutely no one else can fake.]

[First, the True God’s Envoy’s appearance will often be accompanied by the descent of the Beast of Disordered Knowledge.]

[Second, the True God’s Envoy possesses a temperament utterly different from that of all others, a temperament that cannot be described by words, as if the envoy was not born here, but comes from beyond the heavens.]

[Though there was no descent of the Beast of Disordered Knowledge when this man appeared in the workshop, by his behavior and manner so completely out of tune with everything around him, he could tell in a single glance that this man was the True God’s Envoy in the prophecy.]

[On hearing this, the Direct Vision Great Sage merely shakes his head and says that if the master is deciding this man is the True God’s Envoy only on the basis of his crazy behavior, then would it not be possible to go to a lunatic asylum and grab True God’s Envoys by the handful.]
