Chapter 1231 - Truth Runes (1/2)

Everyone was in the middle of their research. Lin Yun also didn’t plan on wasting time, his goal was those 108,000 truth runes.

In the future, the alchemists who studied the truth runes all jointly agreed with one thing. Fully comprehending those 108,000 truth runes would lead to the Saint realm.

But this was the only thing everyone was certain of, most alchemists believed that they didn’t need to comprehend all those 108,000 truth runes to be able to advance.

Lin Yun found a free table and took out a bottle of ink and a quill before starting to study the truth rune on the Whisper Crystal. That rune looked like a child’s scribble, it clearly didn’t look like a rune.

But it gave out a harmonious feeling, as if it contained endless truths. With the help of the Magic Array’s computing, the information contained on the surface layer of the truth was instantly cracked and Lin Yun could feel that seemingly ugly and awkward child’s scribble change.

It now became like a rune containing formidable power. After a few seconds, he cracked the mysteries contained within the runes and an intense feeling rose in his mind.

A large amount of data and formulas appeared in his mind and a lot of things he couldn’t comprehend suddenly became clear.

And after the mysteries of these runes were deciphered, the rune’s shape suddenly changed, that ugly scribble took on the shape of a revolving three-dimensional law rune. It only slightly transformed, but the amount of mysteries contained within sharply increased a few dozen times, they were a few dozen times more cryptic.

This time, Lin Yun’s research speed slowed down and it took five minutes for that law rune to be cracked. As the mysteries were exposed, the law rune didn’t change shape, but the mysteries became even more complex, they looked like a most perfect law rune made of sixteen runes.

Lin Yun was a bit dumbfounded as he saw that shape and structure. A law rune formed out of sixteen runes was the most perfect shape a law rune could take.

This would be common sense in the future. There had been no record of who discovered it, or of any powerhouse that formed them, yet Lin Yun could suddenly see one here.

In Bill George’s ruins, he had seen law runes made out of twelve runes. Sometimes, Lin Yun also wondered if that mysterious Bill George also came back from the future.

Law runes formed from sixteen runes was something that Heaven Mages needed to immediately start constructing upon advancing. And later, their laws would all be formed on that foundation.

Seeing this in this era startled Lin Yun. He couldn’t help conjecturing that the sixteen runes law runes were the most perfect concept because of the Whisper Crystal…

Even if the current mages could see them, they had no way to comprehend. It was due to the fact that the ones that could comprehend the Whisper Crystal were almost all Heaven Rank powerhouses and they already had their law rune foundation, they definitely couldn’t see through this even more perfect law rune structure.

In other words, they couldn’t find the method to construct a sixteen runes law rune. After all, the ten runes law rune structure was the one currently circulating, it was also the simplest.

No mage would give up on a stable path to progress on the Heaven realm to research a new law rune construction method.

In any case, at later ranks, the merged law runes would grow stronger and would definitely be stronger than the law runes of that perfect foundation.

Naturally, the most important reason was that it had no impact on research, and it was even impossible to research.

Lin Yun knew the difference, before advancing to the Heaven Rank, the twelve runes law rune construct was already the limit. He needed Extraordinary Power to build an even more perfect law rune foundation.

After advancing to the Heaven Rank, Lin Yun had yet to complete his law runes construct. But he was now facing these truth runes. Lin Yun felt that he could take advantage of the research of truth runes to construct his law rune foundation.

This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Once the Heaven Rank foundation was built, it could no longer be altered.

It was like a computing method. Lin Yun’s computing method was completely different from the current Heaven Rank powerhouses. Not only was it even more powerful, based on the grade of that computing method, he would have to destroy his foundation and start anew if he wanted to get a new computing method.

But that also meant that it would be impossible for him to fall from the Heaven Rank and then advance again.

Lin Yun was terrified, but he didn’t stop his research. He started calculating as if he was possessed, continuously deciphering the mysteries contained within that law rune.

The most perfect law rune foundation also meant the most stable, and the most difficult to break through. It would be very hard to dismantle its mysteries.

After no less than five hours, the countless streams of data crazily flickering in Lin Yun’s eyes suddenly calmed down.

After massaging his aching eyes, Lin Yun once again glanced at the Whisper Crystal and discovered that the truth rune he had been working on had long since disappeared, replaced by a new truth rune.

Lin Yun wasn’t in a hurry to study that new truth rune and closed his eyes to start sorting out those mysteries. Countless runes and streams of data flowed and turned into a few formulas. And these new formulas gave rise to a breakthrough in alchemy. A lot of things were a lot more clear.

Lin Yun remembered one of the formulas extremely clearly, it was the Magellan Formula. Three millennia later, the Magellan Formula would be announced to the public, but some pieces would already be researched over two millennia earlier.

The Magellan Formula was praised as a core puppeteering formula, and once announced, all puppeteers would be using that formula as a foundation.

Especially when it came to puppets, the Magellan Formula’s energy generation and exploitation would become a basic theory, just like Newton’s three laws in Lin Yun’s former world. A large number of research and theories would be using it as a foundation.

And this Magellan Formula was actually contained within that truth rune. People would be horrified if they knew about that part of the Magellan Formula.

More importantly, Lin Yun knew even more advanced formulas, but Lin Yun only knew the results of these formulas, just like how ordinary people knew the operation principle and the destructive effect of bombs, yet only an extremely small number of people could craft one.

The mysteries within the truth runes they were researching apparently had a special kind of power. While he was studying it, Lin Yun slowly felt as if he genuinely mastered that knowledge, as if his head was no longer clueless and unable to use the Ice-cold Formula.

Now, Lin Yun felt that he could apply the formulas he had just learnt to alchemy experiments and produce some results.

This kind of rapid increase in strength dazed Lin Yun. The truth runes had been recorded in a special book in Heiss City’s decaying library, unfortunately, the mysteries of the truth runes couldn’t be copied.
