Chapter 249: Chapter 249 Unidirectional Spatial Interface (Four updates completed!)

(PS: That’s the fourth update for today, and we’ll return to three daily updates from tomorrow! If there’s a request for added updates, it will be done the next day! Also, tipping for extra updates costs 10,000 Book Currency, equivalent to one helmsman, so make sure you understand before speaking up, the fan value is right there!)

“Where did he go?”

Sun Wukong’s eyes widened as his Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod was about to hit the attacker, who then just disappeared into thin air, which was incredibly strange!

Unbelievably strange, utterly unbelievable!

Sun Wukong urgently activated his Void-Breaking Divine Eye, looking all around. There was not a single person in sight, and everything around him had returned to its prior tranquil state. Were it not for the huge pit created by the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod on the ground, even Sun Wukong himself would start to doubt if he had just seen an illusion!

But the immense strength contained in that palm was felt very clearly by Sun Wukong, how could it be an illusion?

“There is something odd about this space!”

Sun Wukong’s expression darkened. The space inside the Investiture of the Gods was even more bizarre and eerie than he had imagined. From what had just occurred, it seemed to be much more dangerous than The Borderlands. If it were not for his Mysterious Heaven Nine Transformations White Cloud Smoke Body Technique, that palm strike would have hit him squarely!

How did that figure disappear all of a sudden?

It wasn’t teleportation; teleportation would cause spatial fluctuations, and it wasn’t some high-speed body technique or an invisibility spell either. None of these could escape Sun Wukong’s Void-Breaking Divine Eye. It felt to Sun Wukong like the figure had just vanished from this space suddenly, which was utterly bizarre!

He needed to be more cautious and not capsize in the ditch!

Holding the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod behind his back, Sun Wukong summoned the Ruyi Divine Armor, arming himself fully before continuing toward the direction of the radiating light. After what had just happened, he dared not be careless anymore!

Energy fluctuations appeared again, and Sun Wukong tensed up. The hand holding the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod suddenly flared up with raging True Solar Fire, instantly spreading across the entire staff. The next moment, a figure appeared in front of Sun Wukong; it was Growing Heaven King Mo Liqing!

However, oddly, Growing Heaven King Mo Liqing seemed not to see Sun Wukong at all, showing no reaction, but his solemn expression on his face told Sun Wukong he was also quite tense.

“What is going on?”

Sun Wukong took a step towards Growing Heaven King Mo Liqing only for his figure to suddenly shudder. He felt a very strange spatial fluctuation, as if he had just stepped through a spatial barrier. Instantly, Growing Heaven King Mo Liqing, who had previously shown no reaction, now looked shocked and furious, shouting loudly as he swung the Green Edge Precious Sword towards Sun Wukong.

Clang!

Of course, Sun Wukong was not afraid of Growing Heaven King Mo Liqing. He parried the Green Edge Precious Sword with his Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod and then with a backhand strike knocked him down to the ground, “Growing Heaven King, what exactly is going on here? How did you appear out of nowhere?”

“Great Sage Equalling Heaven? It turns out to be you! I am not wronged in losing! But don’t get too arrogant. Inside this mirror space of the Investiture of the Gods, even you may not be guaranteed a victory!”

Sun Wukong now had far surpassed Growing Heaven King Mo Liqing in terms of Cultivation Strength, and the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod, now a superior grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, was more than ten times heavier than the original thirteen thousand five hundred catties. Growing Heaven King Mo Liqing was knocked down with a strike, having sustained considerable injuries, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, staining the ground red. He turned his head and gave Sun Wukong a wry smile, then pressed a spot between his eyebrows. His entire form scattered into a cluster of light dots and disappeared.

“This guy, he admitted defeat just like that?”

Sun Wukong was taken aback. Every contestant entering the self-contained space inside the Investiture of the Gods had a mark added between their eyebrows. Simply by activating this mark to admit defeat, one would be transported out of the Investiture of the Gods; that’s exactly what Growing Heaven King Mo Liqing had done.

Suddenly, Sun Wukong felt a force of space acting upon him, and the next moment, the ground that had been stained red by Growing Heaven King Mo Liqing’s blood turned back to its original green, even the trampled grass regaining its initial appearance as if nothing had happened here at all.

“What exactly is going on here?”

Sun Wukong was baffled, these changes were too strange, completely defying common sense!

Right, Growing Heaven King Mo Liqing had mentioned something about a mirror space just now, what did he mean by that? You damned fool, if you had to admit defeat, at least explain it clearly to Old Sun before you do it, what does this all mean now?

Sun Wukong was getting increasingly agitated, and he became even more vigilant towards the self-contained space inside the Investiture of the Gods. This place was just too bizarre!

He continued walking towards the front, and before long, that familiar sensation of spatial fluctuations appeared again, which Sun Wukong had partly understood. Otherwise, like Growing Heaven King Mo Liqing, he would not have felt it at all.

“No one appeared?”

As soon as the space fluctuation occurred, Sun Wukong had prepared for an attack, but neither an attack nor a person appeared, and the surroundings were completely calm.

“Strange… who are you?”

While Sun Wukong was pondering, suddenly a face fiercely appeared in front of him, giving him a fright. Instinctively, he struck out with the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod.

“Great Sage, stop, it’s me!”

The voice of Qin Feng rang out, and Sun Wukong forcibly stopped the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod just an inch away from the face. However, the True Solar Fire twirling around the rod had already scorched the face, eliciting a scream. Sun Wukong hurriedly withdrew the True Solar Fire with a thought, and upon closer inspection, wasn’t the smoke-scorched face Qin Feng?

No, to be precise, it wasn’t just a face but half a body; Qin Feng’s half body had appeared, while the other half seemed to not exist at all or as if it wasn’t within this space.

“Qin Feng? What’s happening with you? Where did you pop out from? Where is the other half of your body?”

Sun Wukong fired off questions rapid-fire.

“Great Sage, don’t you know? This is a mirror space. My body is in another mirror space, and I am only temporarily entering your mirror space through an open spatial connection.”

Qin Feng rubbed his face, which was burning from the True Solar Fire. The True Solar Fire was too powerful. Even a brief exposure had left him in this condition. Fortunately, Sun Wukong had withdrawn the True Solar Fire in time, or else he might have been in mortal peril!

However, it seemed Sun Wukong didn’t quite understand the principle of this mirror space!

“What other mirror space, what do you mean by that?”

Sun Wukong promptly pressed for answers, sensing from Qin Feng’s tone that he knew the principles of this mysterious space, the spatial connection, and everything else that was confusing Sun Wukong, who urgently needed someone to explain it, making Qin Feng the perfect person to ask.

“It turns out you really didn’t know, Great Sage!”

Qin Feng exclaimed in surprise, then quickly explained, “This is the mirror space within the Investiture of the Gods. Each time someone enters, an identical mirror space is generated. These mirror spaces overlap yet exist independently, and occasionally, a spatial connection between two mirror spaces appears randomly. However, this spatial connection is one-way. Just like earlier, I could see the Great Sage from this side, but you couldn’t see me from the other side, unless I physically passed through the spatial connection to temporarily enter your mirror space.”

“You mean, you were originally in another space, and now you have come through some spatial connection to appear in my mirror space?”

Sun Wukong finally began to understand. So this was the so-called mirror space!

So the one who initially launched a sneak attack with that palm had done so from another mirror space, sending his palm through a spatial connection to strike him? No wonder that palm appeared so abruptly, without any warning!

Sun Wukong also finally understood why, when he was facing Demon King Mo Liqing earlier, the other seemed completely oblivious, unable to see him right in front of him—because it was a one-way spatial connection from his mirror space to that of Demon King Mo Liqing. Just as Qin Feng could see him earlier, and he could not see Qin Feng.

“Right, Qin Feng, how long does this one-way spatial connection last? Does it disappear after a while? You…”

As Sun Wukong was about to ask more questions, he suddenly saw Qin Feng’s form fade and then disappear completely, just like the figure he had encountered earlier. It seemed he had returned to his own mirror space.

“I see now, this one-way spatial connection doesn’t last long, just for a brief moment, and once the connection disappears, each person is forcibly pulled back to their original mirror space!”

Sun Wukong had an epiphany. The previously blood-stained grassland that seemed to have returned to its original state hadn’t actually restored itself, but rather he had been pulled back to his own mirror space, where the grassland had been unmarred to begin with and thus appeared untouched.

The one who initially launched a sneak attack wasn’t truly capable of avoiding his Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod’s strike; rather, it was just that the timing aligned perfectly with the disappearance of the spatial connection, and he was pulled back to his original mirror space!@@novelbin@@

“Hey, interesting! Really interesting!”

Having understood the ins and outs of the situation, the puzzlement and tension on Sun Wukong’s face disappeared instantly. He finally grasped what this first trial was all about: It was about making the challengers sneak attack each other in the mirror spaces!

Because the emerging spatial connection was one-way, the person being attacked had absolutely no sensation before the attack. The sensation only came after the attack passed through the spatial connection. Whether one could dodge or block the attack depended entirely on their own skill!
