Xuanyu exhaled slowly, his fingers tightening slightly as he watched the system screen in front of him.
Xuanyu's eyes widened as he read through the list. Out of five mythical gacha draws, getting three mythical and two emperor rank is good.
Then he moved to read the description of the first item.
"Mystic Eyes of Death Perception? That name alone sounds dangerous."
As Xuanyu read the entire description, his breath hitched. He reread the description, his mind racing.
"This… this is too much."
This wasn't just an ability—it was something that defied logic itself. The ability to kill anything, even concepts? That was on a completely different level than any power he had encountered so far. Even immortality meant nothing before these eyes. His grip on his chair tightened as he tried to process the implications.
He wasn't naïve enough to think he could use this power freely. Even if it was his now, wielding something like this had consequences. Would he even be able to control it properly? Would it affect his perception of reality? If he could see death in everything, would he start seeing people as mere objects waiting to be erased?
Just as he was lost in thought, the system beeped loudly—a new notification appearing on the screen.
----
[SYSTEM NOTICE: DUE TO HOST'S LOW STRENGTH, THERE ARE RESTRICTIONS APPLIED TO "MYSTIC EYES OF DEATH PERCEPTION"]
→ Due to the overwhelming power of the Mystic Eyes and hosts low strength, the system has implemented restrictions based on the user's current strength and spiritual power.
Restrictions:
→ Limited Perception: At Xuanyu's current level, he cannot fully perceive all death lines and points. Only those weaker than him or objects of lower spiritual complexity will reveal their mortality.
→ Energy Drain: Activating the Mystic Eyes consumes an immense amount of mental and spiritual power. Prolonged usage can lead to exhaustion, unconsciousness, or potential backlash.
→ Conceptual Restrictions: The ability to impose death on abstract forces (such as time, space, or energy) is locked until Divine Rank. Until then, the Mystic Eyes will only function on living beings and physical objects.
→ Gradual Adaptation: Xuanyu's mind will slowly adjust to the perception of death. Sudden overuse may lead to mental instability, hallucinations, or perception overload.
→ Eye Evolution: As Xuanyu's power grows, the Mystic Eyes will gradually evolve, lifting restrictions step by step. Full potential is only accessible at Divine GODKING Rank.

Xuanyu let out a slow breath, his muscles relaxing slightly.
"Of course, there were restrictions."
A part of him felt relieved. If the Mystic Eyes had no limits, it would have been terrifying—not just for others, but for himself. Power that could kill anything with a glance was not something he was prepared to handle so easily.
"This is still a ridiculous ability, but at least I won't accidentally erase someone just by looking at them."
He leaned back, his mind settling as he processed the reality of the situation. The Mystic Eyes were still a game-changing power, even with the restrictions. If anything, these limitations made sense. They forced him to grow into the ability rather than handing him something unstoppable from the start.
Shaking his head, Xuanyu read the description of the second item Akashic Records Fragment.
Xuanyu's eyes flickered across the screen as he read the description of the Akashic Records Fragment. A shard of a cosmic library that recorded everything—past, present, and future—across all realities. Even though this was just a fragment, it still granted absurd abilities.
Xuanyu exhaled sharply.
"This is ridiculous…"
A power like this should belong to an omniscient god, not him. The ability to comprehend anything instantly, perceive different timelines, and never forget a single piece of information—it was overwhelming.
His mind immediately went to the practical uses. With Conceptual Understanding, he could instantly master any skill. If he wanted to wield a weapon, he'd become a grandmaster. If he studied alchemy, he'd understand the formulas on a fundamental level.
And Interdimensional Awareness… The very idea of perceiving alternate realities and different timelines sent shivers down his spine. What would that even feel like? Would he see infinite versions of himself? Would he accidentally glimpse things he shouldn't?
Then came Memory & Information Absorption. Anything he saw, heard, or experienced would become permanent knowledge. This alone was invaluable. With it, he'd never forget techniques, strategies, or the tiniest details in battle.
Xuanyu clenched his fists.
"This alone makes me nearly unstoppable in terms of intelligence…"
But suddenly, he froze.
Something about this sounded familiar.

Skill: Answer
→ Answers the user's questions. However, the complexity of the question determines the amount of energy required.
Eye of Appraisal
→ A derivative of Answer, allowing the user to obtain detailed information about any item within sight. Like the main skill, it consumes energy to function.
---
Xuanyu narrowed his eyes.
His Skill: Answer already allowed him to get information, but the biggest drawback was the energy consumption. The more complex the question, the more energy it required. Another drawback is that he cannot effectively store the information, he need to write it down or just memorize it but he may still forget some details over time.
But true Akashic Records gave him an idea, why don't he create his own library? It will be very usefull.
A library—an actual, physical repository of knowledge.
Xuanyu's mind raced as the idea took shape. If he could create his own version of the Akashic Records, a place to store and access knowledge at will, it would eliminate many of the limitations of his Skill: Answer. Instead of expending energy every time he wanted to recall something, he could simply store the information permanently in a structured format and retrieve it whenever necessary.
A true library of the infinite.
But it wouldn't be just any library. This wouldn't be a simple collection of books or scrolls—it would be something far greater. A self-expanding archive, filled with the knowledge of everything he encountered, categorized and stored perfectly.
Xuanyu's eyes gleamed as the possibilities unfolded in his mind.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. The Akashic Records Fragment was just a piece of something far greater, but with it, he could create something even better—a living archive that would grow with him.
Xuanyu exhaled, his gaze sharpening. To make this truly work, he needed to integrate his existing abilities
Xuanyu could already see the future—a vast, ever-growing repository of wisdom, something that no one else in any world had. Not even gods possessed a system like this.
But for now, this was just an idea.
He exhaled, steadying himself. This wasn't something he could create overnight. The foundation was there, but he would need time, power, and the right resources to bring it into reality.
Still, one thing was clear—this library wouldn't just be a tool. It would be his greatest legacy.
