Chapter 427 The Eye of Truth

But it's much better than before.

At least from what I've seen before, all the top kings and nobles are working hard to cultivate the younger generation. However, it is countless times more difficult to gain their favor than to enter a martial arts academy.

"So at that time I thought, if only I could see through what they were hiding at a glance, learn all their secret tricks, and then pass them on to those who need them."

The Prince of Jiangling revealed his "delusion," and then sighed, "Unfortunately, when I finally have the ability to realize this delusion, I no longer need to do so."

This statement sounds contradictory, but Shen Qian nodded in understanding.

Seeing through everything in the world at a glance.

This in itself is an astonishing skill.

When the Prince of Jiangling had this ability, he must have already stood at the pinnacle of martial arts, so who else would be worth his attention?

"The martial arts are changing rapidly, and no one can say for sure what will happen in the future."

The Prince of Jiangling smiled again, "Although I no longer need this little trick, I'll leave it to be given to someone who is destined to receive it, so that it won't be tarnished by the world."

“I bestow upon you this mark, which is called… the Eye of Truth.”

Finally, the King of Jiangling revealed the mystery.

The Eye of Truth?

As Shen Qian was pondering these four words, he suddenly saw the King of Jiangling wave his hand, and a faint golden mark flew towards Shen Qian's brow.

The mysterious mark, resembling an eye, went straight into Shen Qian's brow, and after a brief burst of light, it disappeared.

Without flinching, Shen Qian felt a chill in his eyes. He instinctively closed them, and when he opened them again, he suddenly felt that the world before him seemed different.

For example, at this moment, the spiritual mist that shrouded the entire hall seemed to become transparent in Shen Qian's eyes, and he could clearly see the faint traces of spiritual energy within it.

The spiritual energy trajectories intertwined to form arrays, maintaining the existence of this secret realm.

The Jiangling King before Shen Qian had also changed in his eyes. His figure became illusory, and with just one glance, Shen Qian understood.

The energy of the Jiangling King's projected consciousness has been exhausted and is on the verge of dissipating.

This feeling of being able to see through everything at a glance made Shen Qian both startled and uncontrollably delighted.

Isn't this a skill unique to the system?

However, the system also consumes energy and requires a certain amount of time to analyze before it can provide feedback to the sinking front. But now the sinking front itself has this lossless function.

Isn't that amazing?

Although it was impossible for Jiangling King to have any communication with Shen Qian, he seemed to have guessed Shen Qian's current feelings and smiled slightly.

"This little trick was created after I comprehended the great supernatural power of Marquis Jingcheng's 'Observing the World'. Although it cannot compare to the various mysteries of 'Observing the World', it is not necessarily inferior to it in terms of 'observation' alone!"

As he said this, the Prince of Jiangling unconsciously carried a hint of arrogance, but when he heard the other party mention his teacher Shen Qian, he keenly noticed another detail.

The other party described "the eye of truth" as a minor trick, while "seeing the world" was a great supernatural power.

This can only mean that the "worldly observation" he experienced before sinking probably did not reveal his true nature.

“Even the Prince of Jiangling speaks so highly of our teacher. No wonder my third senior brother always says that although our teacher is only a marquis, he is a very special one among the princes and marquises, and is no less than the Duke of Yanshan and others.”

He thought to himself before sinking.

"The true mystery of the 'Eye of Truth' lies in its ability to observe people, even kings and nobles. However, one must be careful, as not every king or noble will remain undetected."

As if remembering something, the Prince of Jiangling gave another instruction.

Even kings and nobles can be spied on?

Shen Qian was genuinely surprised this time.

But he also knew that the Prince of Jiangling wouldn't boast about such a thing.

Even if the King of Jiangling hadn't reminded him, Shen Qian wouldn't have dared to investigate the princes so easily, as it would definitely cause trouble if he were discovered.

After all, nobody likes to be invisible in other people's eyes.

"The 'Eye of Truth' I planted for you is just a seed. It still has room to grow and improve, but you need to nurture it with your own unique methods. The most effective method is to directly devour it..."

Just as Shen Qian was listening intently, the Prince of Jiangling suddenly stopped.

Shen Qian looked up in astonishment and saw the Prince of Jiangling suddenly vanish like a bubble.

Shen Qian could clearly see in his eyes that the projection was unable to continue because its energy was exhausted.

Chen Qian was somewhat dumbfounded.

He wasn't sure if it was because the Nine Kings Secret Realm itself was "in disrepair" or because King Jiangling had rambled on too much, exceeding the time limit, that caused the consciousness projection to stop, but...

He was clearly scammed.

Regarding how to strengthen this "eye of truth," Shen Qian directly lost the most intuitive guidance.

"Holy crap!"

Shen Qian couldn't help but swear, but he felt somewhat helpless.

In any case, he has obtained the benefits. As for how to improve the Eye of Truth, he can only wait for himself to figure it out slowly.

Looking around, with the disappearance of the King of Jiangling, there was no other movement in the hall. Chen Qian's eyes pierced through all the mist, but he could not find the white jade platform he had seen in ancient times.

"Something else must have happened in between that caused the platform to disappear."

Shen Qian felt a bit mentally exhausted.

He just wanted to cultivate martial arts quietly, he didn't want to be a historical detective!
