Chapter 303 - 301: Benefits
After arranging the Lifebound Space, the very first thing, of course, was to take his lovely wives in for a stroll.
Qin Yu was a bit anxious, but of course it was all for safety’s sake.
Although the Hundred Sword Sect was destroyed, he still felt as if there was an invisible hand behind it all.
That hand, if it could wipe out the Hundred Sword Sect, could just as easily destroy the Cyan Mountain Sect!
Better safe than sorry.
Moreover, Qin Yu also discovered that bringing anyone into the Lifebound Space required physical contact with him.
So basically, entry and exit all needed his approval.
It was like he was the dominator of that little space.
This, without a doubt, increased the safety.
"Brother-in-law, where are we?"
Not just Lin Shuishui, but the other ladies were curious too.
The layout gave off the subtle vibe of Cyan Mountain’s Sect Leader Peak, especially the way the courtyard and rooms were arranged — it was almost identical to the Saintess Cave Mansion.
Only, there were some tweaks made on top of that foundation.
Like a new swing in the courtyard, and way more rooms than before.
Mountains and rivers nestled side by side.
There was a waterfall, and even a nice-sized lake — the scenery was charming, with its own unique flavor.
To set it up like this in less than half a day was impressive enough already.
"This is going to be our cozy little home from now on. Here, you don’t have to worry about safety, so just relax and focus on cultivation,"
Qin Yu pinched Lin Shuishui’s soft, delicate cheek, and started telling them all about the Lifebound Space.
Though the space inside wasn’t as vast as the outside world, it was still connected with it. Compared to cave mansions, the Lifebound Space was more like a real grotto heaven.
It was practically like treating the Lifebound Space as their new home.
That way, it actually felt bigger, more secretive, and completely impenetrable to any outsider’s sight.
"Wow, this place is amazing!"
Lin Shuishui and Zhao Mengli cheered, excitedly dragging Qin Yu around as they moved in all sorts of things they liked.
Like spirit fish, a few spirit deer, spirit rabbits... and so on.
It gave the space a burst of vibrance and life.
Everyone took their time, decorating their rooms and the courtyard according to their own tastes, until every corner radiated its own special charm.
Like Lin Qianqian — her set up was simple but warm, with every detail showing off a cozy, homely vibe.
The beautiful master favored a more refined approach.
The little fairy wife planted a patch of bamboo in her courtyard, showing off her elegance.
Yan Yu kept a close eye on everyone going in and out, getting more and more puzzled.
For several reasons.
First, Qin Yu could take all his pretty wives and just disappear anytime — which, from her guess, meant entering the same...
Space?!
Wait, the space can actually move with them?
Yan Yu’s eyes were full of confusion.
Like the Secret Realm inside Cyan Mist Hall — that’s basically a self-contained space, but it’s stationary, with fixed entrances and exits.
Other spaces like that are all pretty much the same.
But what was happening with Qin Yu seemed totally different.
Then there was the issue of how big the space was.
It’s not that you have to comprehend the Space Law to open up a space, either.
Like a storage ring.
It’s actually all about the material. How big a space you can make depends on the material, and besides, there’s one key feature... you can’t store living things inside.
Clearly, Qin Yu’s space was different — probably more like a Secret Realm... a Grotto Heaven Blessed Land?
Though it sounded a little outrageous for a Golden Core Cultivator to open a Grotto Heaven Blessed Land.
But it was also a bit different — this grotto heaven could be carried around, just like a storage ring.
That...
No matter how long Yan Yu puzzled over it, she just could not figure out how he did it.
And then there was the space’s size.
Given Qin Yu’s cultivation, she’d figured the space wouldn’t be that large. But then she saw Qin Yu move in rocks, even water...
At that moment, Yan Yu felt like her brain just froze up.
How big does it have to be to fit in whole boulders and water?!
After weighing everything, Yan Yu was convinced the space was huge — and must have been really comfortable, or else why would they move their home inside?
Which just made her more curious.
But whenever she wanted to bring it up, Qin Yu just kept dodging the topic on purpose.
Could it be... only after having kids with him can you go in?!
But Sister Yan Zhi told her she was still too young for that kind of thing.
Yan Yu was feeling very frustrated.
...
Inside the Lifebound Space, a lot of things became much more convenient.
Back in the cave mansion, the wives were more reserved; even if a window was open, they’d get all shy, and being affectionate in the courtyard? Not really possible — they were still a bit resistant.
There might be an array blocking outside senses,
but nothing’s ever absolute, especially with Yan Yu as... an outsider in the cave mansion too.
But things were completely different inside the Lifebound Space.
From the inside, you could see everything outside; it was pretty thrilling for the senses, and completely safe from any outside risk.
Sometimes, when Lin Shuishui and Zhao Mengli played in the water, Qin Yu would even join in.
Yeah... just playing together.
That kind of thing—no way it would ever happen on the Sect Leader Peak.
The next day.
Qin Yu came out of the Lifebound Space alone — all his wives stayed inside.
"So this is what time flow speed means!"
Now he finally understood what time flow speed referred to.
They’d been arranging and hanging out inside for more than twenty hours, but only about a day had passed outside.
In other words, two days inside equaled just one day outside.
If that was all, there’d be benefits sure, but at best it’d just speed up cultivation.
It was already considered a prime spot for cultivation.
But the benefits didn’t stop there...
Even though two days had gone by inside, only one day of lifespan was spent.
A Golden Core Cultivator gets five hundred years of lifespan.
At that realm, you really can feel your life ticking away.
Back then, even the Sect Leader had appearance anxiety.
She’d say she didn’t care, but really, what woman doesn’t care about her looks?
After all, there weren’t any Youthful Pills, so you couldn’t keep yourself forever young. If there were, the Hall Master wouldn’t look so old.
Realm just slows down aging — that’s all.
Only by breaking through to a higher realm and gaining more years can you maintain your looks.
So basically, as long as you go into the Lifebound Space, your lifespan is effectively doubled without you even noticing.
But the best part is...
[Basic Time Flow Speed]
Doesn’t this mean that as the Lifebound Space levels up, the time flow gets even stronger?!
The benefits Qin Yu could get were even more obvious.
For example, the speed at which he earned Flame Points — that would definitely go up.
So, he really should bring the Sect Leader and Master Liu inside too.
