Otherworldly Desert Dust

Wang Rui immediately folded two fingers on his other palm to represent the action of kneeling down in worship. It conveyed respect without being too unfamiliar.

"It has to be you, a Super Tenth Rank, eh? I can't even imagine what it's like to be Super Tenth Rank. If I had ten girlfriends and partied all night, I doubt I'd feel tired at all," Wang Rui sighed.

Wu Yingting coughed to signal that, even though he was quite open-minded, respect for his elder was still necessary.

"Super Tenth Rank, and with four types of Perception, doesn't that make you like an all-knowing God within our homeland?" Wang Rui continued to ask.

He was very curious about the world of Super Tenth Rank beings and those with four kinds of Perception. Suddenly, he understood what Wu Hen had said before: the world that people first sense is just a limited world, and not the true appearance of the world.

"I see your body as strings of code like centipedes, and your thoughts are like a mass of tadpole-like neuronal signals tangled together," Wu Hen said lightly.

Wang Rui turned pale upon hearing this.

His sacred body, his lofty thoughts, how could they possibly be built of such unreal, and somewhat filthy, elements?

"No, are you trying to say I'm lecherous?" Wang Rui suddenly realized something and said angrily.

Wu Hen chuckled, finding that the world he saw wasn't that different from before. It just had many invisible branches, which could be the legendary quantum entanglement or cycles of causality. If he delved deep, he could glimpse into some future events.

Of course, these upcoming events were only low-dimensional. After all, their bodies and interaction with the universe followed certain Laws, easily enabling him to deduce outcomes. Especially after the Tactile Awakening, Wu Hen was able to sense the true nature of objects. The once perplexing mysteries had gradually become clear, not because everything was programmed, but because they were approaching natural laws, like how ants move their homes when a big rain is coming...

"Eh, Little Hen's back?" Yu Yi walked in from outside and saw three men standing in the kitchen filled with a spicy aroma.

"I'm back too," Wu Yingting said.

"Oh," Yu Yi responded indifferently.

Wang Rui, standing aside, started to take joy in their misfortune, looking forward to witnessing such a domestic drama unfold.

The disaster that came did not tear the family apart, but the allure of a woman from Da Xuan with exotic charm filled the family with estrangement and indifference.

"Just in time for Wu Hen's return. He now has a superbrain, like an all-knowing God, so he can easily discern right from wrong. Let him tell you if I've done you wrong," Wu Yingting said, unable to bear the cold war anymore, puffing up with anger.

Wu Hen smacked his lips.

He became a High-dimensional being to be concerned with the fate of all humankind, not to judge such petty family matters!

"Mom, don't worry. Dad isn't interested in those Da Xuan beauties. His taste has never changed. He always liked the type with a full middle court, classic oriental features, and delicate facial features like yours. In recent years, not only has the aging slowed down for most people, but many have remained as youthful as you, showing no difference from a woman in her twenties. I'm not really worried about him fooling around outside. Instead, I fear that one day I'll come back for a rest, only to find you've given me a little brother or sister. Then I'll have to look at you both with wide eyes and ask how long is this relative going to stay in our house?" Wu Hen said.

With those words, Yu Yi's face turned red.

But it was clear that her mood had instantly brightened up. She immediately asked what Wu Hen wanted to eat tonight and promised he could have anything.

"I'd like something spicy," Wu Hen said unreservedly.

Yu Yi was even happier.

Spicy isn't a taste; it's a feeling of pain.

Thus, Wu Hen was using this subtle difference to experience his recently awakened Perception.

The further one walks toward High-dimensionality, the more they need to root in their original sensory cognition. This allows them to dissect the mysteries of the universe and analyze the predicaments they face from a comprehensive perspective.

"So did you actually use your super sense Perception just now?" Wu Yingting became curious, wanting to know if Wu Hen had truly reached a Superhuman realm.

"I did, but it's not much different from recognizing your microexpressions. Your pupils, your breathing, your relaxed facial muscles all indicate you bear no guilt – rather, you seem expectant after mom got a new hairstyle... your brain neurons also look like tadpoles..."

"Enough, enough, can you watch your language!" Wu Yingting immediately put on the seriousness expected from an elder and gave a stern look to the unrestrained Wu Hen, shifting the topic, "The question is, you've awakened Tactile Perception, so how did you acquire such an ability?"

"Tactile Awakening has its independent functions. For example, I can now sense what elements comprise attacks launched at me, and how I can neutralize them, like blocking soldiers with generals or damming water with earth. But Tactile Perception broadened my understanding of matter. When I release all my Perceptions, the influx of external information quickly interacts in my mind, leading to a more detailed picture, like watching a movie... How do I put this? I can now see everything that happens within ten kilometers in a five-minute span, oh, and also five minutes prior," Wu Hen explained.

In fact, Wu Hen himself found it unbelievable.

He had only awakened Tactile Perception, and it was only at the First Rank, yet all his senses had transformed, allowing him to overlook all dynamics in a certain area, including what was about to happen...

Certainly, this is the effect of unleashing all perceptions, which consumes a great deal of mental energy.

Most of the time, Wu Hen wouldn't activate all perceptions, only needing to issue some commands to his perceptions to keep all faculties in a semi-dormant state. But if there were special signals or events, he would then capture them into his mind.

For instance, Wu Hen now simply kept his Listening Sense in a half-asleep state, filtering out most sounds in the homeland, only catching discussions of "speaking ill of oneself"… and whether there were other hidden dangers in the homeland.

Perhaps it was the changes brought by Fifth Rank hearing, which covered a very wide range and possessed the function of efficiently processing information.

Wang Rui and Wu Yingting, listening to Wu Hen's description, felt it was all like a fairy tale.

Predicting everything five minutes before and after, even though it was within a certain area, was no different from an immortal!

As Wu Hen's other perceptions continued to evolve, would he eventually see the fate of the entire homeland in the next hundred years?

"Then aren't you invincible??" Wu Yingting said.

Wu Hen smiled wryly and shook his head. How could this be considered invincibility.

"I am currently up against an opponent in the shadows, who might possess Time Travel abilities. My biggest concern right now is whether he might travel back to the time when you and my mom started cohabitating, and recommend to you a really handy Condom, and then I would be completely erased from this timeline," said Wu Hen.

Wu Yingting's expression stiffened; this damned kid had no respect for his elders, spouting such nonsense to his face!

"No, are you being serious or are you joking?" But Wang Rui saw a trace of worry beneath Wu Hen's relaxed expression.

"Serious, but don't worry too much. After all, if he can time travel to change my end, then the higher-dimensional future me should also be able to foresee his sneaky move, and future me would stop him. So, my current self doesn't need to worry too much. I should progress step by step," Wu Hen explained.

"I feel dizzy," said Wu Yingting.

"I kind of understand. But from a temporal theory perspective, if he travels back in time to erase you, that would mean you in the future wouldn't exist either. So, you still need to be strong to get through this terminator coming after you," Wang Rui explained.

"Don't worry, I have a Law that counters him; he can't erase anyone," Wu Hen said confidently.

With the existence of Death Omen Law, Wu Hen was actually anticipating Cangling's personal intervention. Then he could instantly learn of his existence, his identity, and it would remain to be seen whether he could withstand his Black Divine Death Sword; time couldn't lock the mightiness of Black Divine Miracle.

"That's good to hear, that's good to hear," Wu Yingting let out a sigh of relief, feeling that the interplay at the level Wu Hen described was beyond his comprehension.

"The big shot with Time Travel ability you mentioned, his temporal powers must also have limitations. Just like how you can only see the scenes within ten kilometers and five minutes before and after, his temporal abilities must have their own range. Otherwise, a single Condom really would be enough to deal with you, the invincible. The fact that you're still alive proves he can't do it," Wang Rui seriously analyzed for Wu Hen.

"Yeah, according to your thinking, he probably can't travel back before Red Port. Before Red Port, my Law was not yet established. At that time, he could have erased me and anyone else around me," Wu Hen said.

"That makes sense. Even if he has Time Travel abilities, there must be many restrictions," Wang Rui nodded.

"Let's watch and wait for now, I'll practice Perception lately, to see if I can gather some information through Super sense. I don't know why, but I have a premonition that guy is not far from us," Wu Hen said.

"Great, take me with you; I might be of great use!" Upon hearing this, Wang Rui immediately got excited, wanting a spot on Wu Hen's cultivation ship.

"No problem."

"If you need anything, just let me know," Wu Yingting said.

"Yuan You, as much as you can get," Wu Hen didn't mince his words this time, directly asking Wu Yingting to gather Pure Yuan You from the Da Xuan commercial empire to help enhance his Tactile Perception.

"Sure, as long as there is fresh pure stuff, I'll have it sent to you immediately."

"Time for dinner!" Yu Yi called out.

"Hold on, don't go into the dining room just yet. What do you think your mom cooked?" Wu Yingting was also very curious, skeptical about Wu Hen's predictive ability.

"Don't say I haven't even filled my stomach yet; even if I were full and stuffed, I wouldn't bother using my Super sense on such things!"

"Heh, I can smell it's Red Braised Fish, Spicy Sesame Chicken, Vinegar Slaw, and Spicy Garlic Ribs... What all-knowing Super sense, sounds fanciful just hearing about it," Wu Yingting said with extreme pride and then went into the dining room first, helping to set bowls and chopsticks.

Wang Rui and Wu Hen entered the dining room.

Well, Wu Yingting's prediction was indeed accurate.

Too bad he didn't expect every dish to be spicy, and he'd need courage to swallow them.
