Chapitre 5: Bangle Interspace
Éditeur: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The one who was happily consuming such rare and valuable fruits had no idea, and she seemed to want more, but there was nothing she could do.
She told Tealwood that she wanted to sleep, then turned to lean her head against his stomach and took a rest…
It was now evening time, but because of the dense trees in the forest, it started to grow dark. Qingcheng had no idea how many big shots had come running towards Langya Magical Beast Forest during the time she spent inside the cave.
Some of them had seen that purple flash of lightning and were certain that some strange treasure must have appeared, so they quickly made their way to the forest, hoping to reach this treasure before their opponents. But they were destined to go home with nothing.
But the person who caused this huge commotion was now quietly sleeping. Or rather, her body was sleeping.
Qingcheng didn't know how it happened, either. As she closed her eyes and was about to sleep, she had gently touched the Star Bangle on her right wrist, wondering what other amazing abilities it had, and she had come to this place immediately after that.
What was happening? Did her soul just leave her body? But it didn't seem like that was the case either…
She found it hard to believe at first, but this really wasn't a dream. When she tried focusing her thoughts on going out, she opened her eyes to find herself back in the cave. She closed her eyes and focused on going into the Star Bangle again, and this time, she really believed that this wasn't a dream.
After entering the Bangle Interspace, she started to look about rather curiously, but she also heightened her vigilance.
The scene in front of her looked like one of those Chinese paintings of mountains and lakes. There was a mountain range in the distance with rivers flowing through them, with some of the mountain peaks high enough to reach the clouds. They seemed close, but they were really very far from her. There was a small lake on her left.
There was something in the middle of the lake that continuously spouted water like it was a spring. An ancient-looking building was suspended right above the lake's center, and there was a white jade bridge that connected this building to the lakeside. The entire surface of the lake was covered with red lotuses.
There was something about the house that seemed to attract her. It was the same attraction she felt when she first laid eyes on the Star Bangle.
She walked up the bridge and towards the house. Along the way, she could smell the fragrance coming from the lotus on the surface of the lake. The huge patch of red lotuses in full bloom was a beautiful sight to see.
The door of the building automatically opened. The space inside was much larger than she had imagined. The main hall was around 400 square meters, and there were six rooms.
Qingcheng walked to the room in the middle that was labeled as the Treasure Storeroom. She pushed the door open and walked in, and a book automatically floated towards her. The book wasn't thick and was only a few pages long.
She stretched her hand out to touch the book and it flew into her hands. The title of the book read: Introduction to the Star Bangle.
The Star Bangle was made by the Creator Goddess of the world. This bangle was made from refining the colorful stones she used to mend the pillars of heaven, making this bangle a supernatural level artifact. It came with its own interspace, and the carvings on the bangle were actually a very powerful Interspatial Teleportation Formation. This formation could teleport any dead or living item into the interspace.
This building she was in was called the Star Palace, and the lake below was called the Sacred Spirit Spring. This was the spring water that appeared during the creation of the world, and it came from the center of the earth. It was formed by the condensation of Spirit Qi, and drinking a small cup could purge the body of all impurities and help with cultivation. For those who didn't cultivate, it could help to extend one's lifespan and even help one regain youthfulness.
If used externally, it could clean wounds, stop bleeding, and form scabs without leaving scars. If taken orally, it could heal internal injuries to a certain extent.
The lotuses in the lake were considered a God level herb: Sacred Fire Lotus.
This palace had six rooms: Alchemy Room, Equipment Refining Room, Treasure Storeroom, Cultivation Room, the bedroom, and the kitchen.
The Alchemy Room had an Encyclopedia of Herbs, pill formulas, and other books on Alchemy techniques. There was a section for storing herbs and readymade pills. The Equipment Refining Room had Equipment Refining techniques and Equipment Refining materials in it.
The Treasure Storeroom held 100 million gold coins, 5,000 low-grade crystals, 3,000 mid-grade crystals, 2,000 high-grade crystals, and 1,000 premium-grade crystals.
Magical Beast Gem Cores were split into five attributes, and she had 1,000 per attribute. They were of differing tiers as well.
Qingcheng's heart trembled when she looked at these astounding numbers. She understood from the memories of the previous owner of this body that Star Continent's currency was essentially made up of gold, silver, and bronze coins. One gold coin was equivalent to 100 silver coins, and one silver coin was equal to 100 bronze coins. Most ordinary families only earned one gold coin a year.
Crystals were a rare sort of mineral rock that was formed by the solidifying of pure Spirit Qi. Absorbing these crystals would speed up the rate of leveling in cultivation compared to absorbing Spirit Qi.
Crystals were split into different grades, so the concentration of Spirit Qi in them was different. Even though they could also be used as common currency, most of the people who could use them were some major sects or powerful families, and they were used mostly as a resource for cultivation. But even so, they didn't use much either.
The Treasure Storeroom kept quite a large number of weapons. The lowest level among them were Spirit Weapons, and two of them were even God level weapons!
A Purple Cloud Godly Whip and a Spirit Wings Dagger.
The Purple Cloud Godly Whip was a dark purple color, and the whip had thorns on it. The entire whip gave off a very powerful sort of aura.
As for the Spirit Wings Dagger, it didn't look very fancy on the outside. The handle was black, and a black crystal was inlaid right in the center. After looking at it more carefully, faint energy was moving over the surface of the crystal and gave off cold air.
According to the introduction to the weapons, God level artifacts had an artifact spirit which needed to go through a blood bond with its owner. That way, the artifact would work only with its owner and could be called upon at any time.
There were all sorts of books within the Treasure Storeroom, cultivation techniques, and other weapons of varying levels.
The biggest difference between the Cultivation Room and the other rooms of the palace was the difference in time. A day inside the interspace was only two hours in the world outside. This difference in time was fixed. The owner of the bangle would experience growth of the body, but the actual physical age would not change.
The flow of time in the Cultivation Room took reference from the interspace. It increased the time difference depending on how high the owner's cultivation level was, and it would not create any impact on the physical age of the owner's body.
For the owner to bring her own body or a Magical Beast into the interspace, she had to hit Spiritualist level first. Then, after reaching Sacred level, she could bring another human into the interspace.
As the owner of this interspace, she could use anything available in this place. The sky was a window to view the outside world, and the owner could choose to open the window or leave it shut.
There was also a Spirit Herb field in the interspace. A portion was filled with herbs and spirit fruit trees, while another part was other items that belonged to this era.
After Qingcheng finished reading everything, the book flew out of her hands. A gold flash of light flickered to slowly form a protective layer, and there was an exquisite looking little girl on the inside. She looked like she was only two or three years old, and her body was curled up as she slept soundly.
This sudden turn of events made Qingcheng wonder who this little girl was. And why was she in the Bangle Interspace?
A childlike voice rang out.
"Star is the artifact spirit of the supernatural level artifact, the Star Bangle. Star will wake up only after the Master reaches Godly level of cultivation. Star hopes that the Master can become a God soon and return to the Godly Realm."
Qingcheng asked the little girl, "Your name is Star?" But she didn't get any response.
Why did Star use the word return in her last sentence? And she also mentioned the Godly Realm. This word made her calm heart suddenly grow a little agitated for some reason.
Godly Realm? One day, she would become a powerful Godly level cultivator and go there!
But the most urgent matter now was to resolve the problem of her body being unable to cultivate.
She looked at the little girl sleeping soundly and said with great determination, "Star is your name, right? Don't worry. I'll work hard to help you wake up as soon as possible!"
