Answer:

Unlimited knowledge

Step-by-step explanation:

The affix "-scient" is clearly derived from the same root word as "science," so it is safe to guess that it means knowledge. This is easier to see in English due to the similar spellings of science and -scient, whereas in Spanish "ciencia" differs a bit more from "-sciente" in the word "omnisciente."
