Chapter 31 - Limitations of the Spatial Realm (2/2)
Looking at his current features, Qing Shui could not help but to slightly frown. He could be considered relatively good looking with exquisite features. “Damn, I must be more masculine, if not people would mistake me for a sissy. Wuwu, nevermind, after second thoughts, in the future if I ever run into a desperate situation, I could depend on this handsome mug of mine to beg for meals.” Qing Shui was trying to find humor in a desperate situation.
“Argh I don’t have time to joke.” Trepidation filling his heart, Qing Shui persisted in trying again and again to enter the spatial realm, but to no avail.Rivulets of sweat appeared after the repeated failures made him immeasurably frustrated.
“F*** this shit, please stop pranking your father, damn it, If I can’t go in again, I might just as well jump down the mountain” Qing Shui desperately cussed, only when there were no people would he allow himself to lose control like that, with profanities spewing from his lips.
After the sun setted and the skies were dark, Qing Shui was still trying to enter the spatial realm. Qing Shui persisted in trying to enter every hour. Unknowingly, it was already approaching midnight, arriving at the Zi period*. TL Note: Zi period – the time between 11 pm and 1 am.
Tonight, the moon was full, silvery white light cascading down, softly illuminating the mountain. What a pity Qing Shui was not in the mood to appreciate the fine scenery. He was already going crazy with anxiety, occasionally extending his hand to feel the jade pendant embedded between his brows, heaving a sigh of relief every time he discovered that it was still there.
For the next hour, Qing Shui persisted in trying to enter the spatial realm again and again, but… he was still unable to gain entry. No matter what he did, he was unable to calm his fretful heart down!
After the Zi period had passed, Qing Shui tried again. To his surprise, he finally managed to succeed! The instant when he had entered the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal almost made tears came out of his eyes… He finally succeeded after countless hours of trying.
“Exit!”
“Enter!”
“Exit!”
“Enter!”
……………………..
As if he was trying to make up for the all the times which he failed to enter previously, Qing Shui experimented again and again.
After a few days, Qing Shui finally discovered the reason! The longest period that the spatial realm allowed the user to stay in, was a period of about 15-16 days, equivalent to 2 hours in the outside world. Every night, after the Zi period has passed, the whole cycle would reset, and the user would be able to spend another 16 days inside the spatial realm.
“Why did the Violet Jade Immortal not inscribed this rule on the stone monument, freaking causing me to worry for nothing.” After Qing Shui discovered the limitations of using the spatial realm, he became much more relaxed. In these few days, the profanities which he spewed, were even more than what he had said in his entire lifetime!
In the next few days, Qing Shui would always stay in the spatial realm before he was forcefully ejected. 2 hours on the outside was equivalent to 16 days in the spatial realm! Making use of this effect, Qing Shui took the chance to completely read and memorize all the contents of the 3 medical books which he had brought. After undergoing his body transformation and acquiring the Yin-Yang symbol in his sea of consciousness, Qing Shui discovered that his memorization power and comprehension level had already reached a terrifying stage..
“<<Basic Sword Techniques>>, it’s about time I read this.”
[1] – Scroll down to the 2nd commentator. It’s freaking profound, I can’t even understand a single sh*t lol
Apparently there are 3 stages to this.
a) see mountain as mountain, see river as river
b) see mountain as not a mountain, see river as not a river
c) so the mountain was still a mountain, the river was still a river
TL Note: The previous Chapter, the author stated the time ratio was [100:1], but in this chapter, the author states that 2 hours in the outside world is equivalent to 15-16 days in the spatial realm. After some calculations if 2 hours = 16 days, the exact ratio should be [192:1]. I’m too lazy to do the calculations for 2 hours = 15 days lol.Not too sure if the author made a mistake in this.. well, for now just enjoy the story first, i will edit in the future after reading the raws.
