The Palace of Light

The pain throughout Gu Hua's body was caused by old flogging injuries inflicted by servants from the courtyard, as well as general knocks and bumps. Combined with yearly malnutrition, it all piled up together. But now, Gu Hua refused to give in to this pain.She tightly closed the door and windows, confirmed that no one was around, then she quickly took the small box out. Gu Hua looked at the box clasped in her hands. She felt a myriad of mixed emotions stir within her as she looked at it. Thinking back about the book and the painting her curiosity got the better of her as she broke open the seal and lifted the lid.Inside the box, lay a simple ring and a dark blue stone. She picked up the dark blue piece of stone and carefully placed it on her palm as she brought it closer and studied it intently.Suddenly her consciousness became vague, her soul seems like it was pulled from her body. After opening her eyes again, her consciousness had entered her space.This space had accompanied her since she learned how to use magic. The furnishings inside this space, just by closing her eyes, she can remember it all. It couldn't be more familiar to her.But the scene that was reflected into her eyes surprised her. This ...this is still the space in her memory right?In her previous life, this space was a wasteland, even the sky always remain dark. While this space almost looks like an upgraded version of the previous space.It's different from the descriptions used in the popular web novels in her previous life. The land inside the space, all was sand and gravel, it couldn't be used to cultivate. No living thing could be brought into space, including herself. She could only use this to change her clothes, armors and to put her weapons and other things like her phone, laptop and other gadgets in it. While her physical body was unable to enter the space.In the middle of the land, there was a palace called "The Palace of Light". Gu Hua had been bored on several occasions and had explored, finding that there were 99 rooms altogether in the palace.However, in Gu Hua's previous life, these damn rooms, even after she had used countless methods could not open, except the one room she put her armors and other things in.The only thing in the space that could maybe be considered a treasure, except her armors and weapons was the expanse of spring water in front of the palace.It possessed a healing effect, helping to heal all sorts of injuries and even improving eyesight. Another example is that it can help people to heal bone-deep cuts and muscle injuries, speeding up the healing process with a better result than if healed normally.Therefore, in her previous life, Gu Hua had regarded this space as a moving warehouse and made use of it as her medicine deploy room.However, the space before her eyes and the space in her memory were completely different, making Gu Hua doubt whether or not she had entered the wrong place.The land that had originally been filled with sand and stones had been replaced by peculiar black land. The sky was no longer dark, rather, the sun was shining above. It also has clean air. The pure spirit in the air could make a person's body and heart entirely intoxicated. The cells in her body felt energized, greedily absorbing the air in here. Originally, her entire body that had been filled with pain and weakness, was now unconsciously replaced with a relaxed feeling.Gu Hua took a deep breath, squatting down, she gently grabbed a handful of black soil and brought it to her nose to smell. Although not an expert in planting and growing medicinal herbs, even she can tell that this black soil obviously contains strong nutrients and spiritual energy. It couldn't even be compared to the previous sand and stones.How can space change so much? Gu Hua released the black soil in her hand, a burst of indescribable excitement forming. Could it be that because of the explosion in her previous life, her space upgraded? But how? The suddenly she remembers about the dark blue stone. Don't tell the stone is used for upgrading the space.Gu Hua walked forward happily, heading to the place she had previously used as a storage room.Sure enough, as per her expectation, all the stored medicine from her previous life was destroyed. All those bottles and jars must have disappeared when she was travelling between space and time.But some things still remained, such as her armors, weapons, the invisible needles, her gadgets, also some properties used for her disguises in her previous life.Gu Hua bent down, scooping some water with her hand from the spirit spring to drink. But once the water from the spirit spring was swallowed, she suddenly felt an overwhelming sensation rising from her stomach. Clearly visible to the naked eye, a stinky black grease spilt forth from her entire body.Gu Hua was greatly shocked. Previously when she would drink this spring water, it would relieve her fatigue and nourish her internal organs. How can it be possible for the result to be so different this time?
