《Poison God’s Heritage》Poison God's Heritage

I took several moments to think of what I needed to do, if I were to take a random step I might enter another Spatial Chamber, lower, or higher, or maybe in between, the special chambers seem random and not organized.
I used my divine sense to try and spot them, but it was useless, I can't see the chambers using divine sense. So I used the next best thing, my Sky Pearl eye. I have inscribed it with thermal vision and night vision, but nothing that could allow me to see through space laws, simply because I didn't have the ability to understand Space Law.
I switched the vision of my Sky Pearl, hoping that something might change, but using thermal vision was the same as using regular sight, nothing different was apparent. I sighed as I felt frustration at being unable to see where I'll be moving next.
So, I sat down and pulled out an item I had in my inventory, I didn't use it since I had obtained it but it seems that it's time I actually start focusing on real cultivation instead of looking for shortcuts.
I pulled out the small Law Stone I received from the Laughing Slaughterer's pagoda, and placed it in front of me. I had a fear that if I were to use this Law Stone, that the Primordial Dragon Snake would notice me like the last time and come at me. But this time I was ready for it, I had already seen it in the trial of fear, and now I can probably withstand it's humongous size and frightening appearance.
I focused on the Law Stone and found myself once again in space, though space was right above me when I used the Law Stone I was space, I had no substance I was a part of the world and I could feel the globes and celestial orbs floating all in their own orbits, moving in the endless space as if they were pilgriming to the deep unknown.

To try and comprehend space laws from mere exposure is impossible, I needed to be able to comprehend how space worked. I bet Albert Einstein would give his right arm for this very experience.
I continued gliding through space, and saw many, many strange things, and in one part of my mind, I made sure not to approach a certain location with certain star formations. Its where the Primordial Dragon Snake lived. So I fully ignored that side of space and focused on where I was.
Space was large enough that you can find many strange things all over it, like this in front of me.
Two stars had collided, and in their collision, a massive shockwave echoed, enough that it obliterated even bigger stars that were nearby. Their explosion created an aurora effect that was colorful as special dust took different rainbow colors.
And within the explosion there was an implosion, as the ever expanding colorful dust began gathering, swept and sucked back into its origin. The center of the collision of the two stars became an unstable mass of power, the might of the explosion tore space and in this tear, space contorted and not even light was able to escape.
It was like creating a deep hole in the depth of the ocean, and now the whole ocean was funneling into that hole trying to correct that 'mistake' and close it.
A black hole. Unlike my experience and what I learned from earth, this black hole wasn't just a deep and heavy dent in space that consumed everything, but actually it was like a small orb that sucked everything from every side. Unlike a tub where water would funnel from one side, this orb sucked space itself from every side. It was hard to explain and one needed to be there to experience it.

And in that instant I had a small understanding, that space wasn't in fact like a sheet of paper as I had presumed, but billions of billions of sheets of paper that were stacked above each other, within each other, diagonally, horizontally and in between. It was like so many pieces of paper were so tightly held against each other that they created a ball with no start and no end in between, and creating a single dent in one of these 'sheets' of paper would undoubtedly affect the rest.
And how would this help me understand the special chambers? It wouldn't but it would at least show me how it worked.
It seems that whoever created this maze, was using this very concept of 'Space Paper' -damn I have so many random names for the strangest things- and with these space papers, he is actually able to separate them and fold them against each other creating a maze without walls but with space itself as the medium.
I immediately woke from my stupor, pain assaulted my head as my nose was clearly bleeding.
"That's what you get for trying to comprehend something so far from your scope of understanding," I heard and this voice had so much might and power in it that I felt no more than a toddler in the presence of a terrifying lion.
"Who's there?" I asked but received no answer.
I wiped my nose and called my mind, I could be imagining things, but this feeling of fear was real, my hands were still shaking, and if this person wanted me dead, I will be dead, because it is his right, and I cannot deny him that, I have no right to do so. Fuck, this is exactly the same as back in that cave, someone with enough power to topple the world is nearby and could snuff my soul with a sneeze.
I took a deep breath and calmed myself, there was no need for me to worry about things I cannot affect, and since he didn't kill me yet, he doesn't mean me harm, at least for now.
When my self-loathing and pity ended, I was finally able to witness a small change that I wasn't able to see before.
There were small ripples in front of me, they were barely visible, they resembled the mirage of desert, or highway, where heat would make the road look like it was wobbling. And this small effect was everywhere.
And it expanded into lines that spread from the ground to the high skies. In between these lines was a clear space.
I hesitantly went between two lines, and the moment I went beyond them, I felt pressure changing. It was the same type of pressure you'll feel when you close a room, even your ears pop.
I frowned, did I just enter another Spatial Room?

8 88Screwed Up Tale of Time-Travel
Kaelum had only wanted to get some free food, maybe see the parade that the city was throwing for the princess. He had no idea the princess was going to travel back in time from the future to her own parade and he certainly didn't expect the aforementioned princess's soul to merge itself with him. With the princess's knowledge of the future and Kaelum's... Uh hard work, they vow to change the future! This is a screwed-up time travel tale. I also post on Tapastic : https://tapas.io/series/SToTT
8 79Super Sekken (An Action Shonen Story)
This is the author’s first story ever written. It may not be great, but do check it out, and I hope you enjoy! I’m currently working on its sequel. Hope. Courage. Self-value. Friends. These all were traits that former junior high soccer champion and first year Miyuki Sekken had none of until she first walked into the doors of her local High School. Despite being a sports athlete phenomenon in her school district, Miyuki dreaded its attention, and even quit her career in pursuit of living a simplistic daily routine. This daily routine would be inevitably interrupted when she chooses to 'branch out' by talking to people. Whether it be a chance of bad luck, fate, or karma, Sekken ends up speaking to someone who was unknowingly suffering from a curse: a curse that causes anyone who tries to get close to them to disappear. Miyuki Sekken would be the next victim, finding herself face-to-face against a once-thought mythical mafia. This gang is not just any gang either, but one who is run solely by the school students of Maguro High, who hold secrets to powers unheard of by the world. How will this first year survive? Will she conquer her anxiety and thwart the gang's vicious rule? Or will she end up losing more than she could have imagined? P.S. I am not a good drawer, so I use Picrews and photo editors to get the general idea for my characters' designs. Rights to the Picrews used go to their respective authors.
