Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr Ling Lan could only feel herself being pulled and tossed about in this black vortex, and then she was rapidly being sucked into a bottomless black hole. She felt as if she was passing through a black hole. Perhaps it was just a second, perhaps it was ten minutes, or perhaps it was a very long time, an hour, or even a day.
Ling Lan's consciousness became somewhat sluggish, and just as she was feeling lost, light suddenly flashed before her eyes. She had been flung out of the black vortex.
Ling Lan felt herself falling rapidly. At this time, Ling Lan could already see that she had come to an unknown small valley, and she was now falling towards a small grassy slope.
Ling Lan didn't know if this grassy slope was dangerous or not. She took a deep breath, and using the strength of her waist and abdomen, she swept her right leg viciously into the grassy slope below her. Several powerful whirlwind kicks were sent out by her legs, causing the grassy slope below her to become a mess. The wild rabbits hiding in the grass were also startled into fleeing in all directions, and there were even quite a few gophers mixed in among them.
Possibility of swamps and traps — none! Possibility of hiding various types of poisonous insects — infinitely close to none!
Ling Lan instantly judged that the place she was about to land was safe, and only then did she allow her body to land. However, she was still very cautious — Ling Lan knew very well that in an unknown world, there would be unknown dangers that existed.
Landing safely, Ling Lan carefully checked her surroundings. Confirming that there was indeed no danger, only then did she take stock of the beautiful valley before her.
In the valley, the scenery was extremely beautiful. Far away on the mountainside, there were countless trees, a patch of gold here, a patch of bright red there, and countless patches of emerald green there. At the foot of the mountain, amidst the green grass, there were all sorts of colourful wild flowers swaying in the wind.
There was also a small stream that flowed back and forth between the flowers and plants, sometimes hidden and sometimes revealing itself. It had the shy beauty of hugging a pipa and covering half of its face. Closer to her, the stream suddenly widened, forming a small river that was neither deep nor shallow. In it, there were even some palm-sized fish swimming happily.
On the banks of the river, little wildflowers of all colours were scattered here and there, and the stream water flowed gently over the cobblestones of various colours. The two colours complemented each other, and just like that, a paradise on earth entered Ling Lan's eyes. It gave Ling Lan the illusion that she had returned to the Earth of her previous life...
Although the beautiful scenery she had seen back then was just some precious pictures on the internet, she still remembered the intoxicating beauty of Earth Earth.
In this world, it was no longer possible to see such natural beauty again. Of Earth Earth Editor: Chrissy Ling Lan Ru Ru Editor Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru u u Ru Ru. Ru Ru Ru
Beside the stream, Ru Ru Ru Ru u u u u Ru u Ru Ru, Ru Ru Ru u Ru Ru u u u. This proved that this valley was not an uninhabited area, otherwise there would not be such a small path.
Seeing this, Ling Lan was undoubtedly happy. This meant that she would soon know where she was, or rather, she would know what she needed to do next.
Although the way Ling Lan had entered the learning space this time was a little strange, she was already sure that she had definitely entered a specific mission of the learning space. Only by completing this mission would she be able to return to the great hall of the learning space, or perhaps to the space of a certain instructor.
Ling Lan was actually very suspicious. Coming up with this kind of nonsensical mission without any hints and relying on herself to find her way, it was very likely that the perverted Instructor Number Five had come up with it. Only he would do such an irresponsible thing, throwing her into the mission space without any warning. If it had been Number One or Number Nine, they would definitely have met her first to give her a heads up.
Of course, Ling Lan could only guess at the moment, unable to confirm it. She needed to first complete this mission and return to the learning space to know the results. Thus, the first thing Ling Lan needed to do was to know what her mission was this time, otherwise she would not be able to take the next step. And Ling Lan's greatest difficulty at the moment was also this. Unlike before, where the instructor would explain the mission and the system would inform her beforehand, this time, she obviously had to rely on herself to find and judge.
Were those murals one of the hints? For some reason, Ling Lan just could not let go of those murals. She kept feeling that they were an important clue, but as for what they were exactly, Ling Lan could not put her finger on it.
Since she could not find any useful information from the murals, then she would look for new clues from here.
Having made up her mind, Ling Lan began to move. She first glanced at the direction of the stream, and then followed that winding path, following the source of the stream. Ling Lan liked to start from the beginning. She felt that this way, whether it was searching or solving a problem, the order would be clear, and it would not be easy to make mistakes.
Just like that, Ling Lan slowly followed those little steps, walking up step by step. After walking for about 30 minutes, when Ling Lan followed the path and turned a corner, she discovered that a tall mountain peak had appeared not too far away. Looking over, the winding path ended right before that mountain peak.
This should be a dead end! If she wanted to save time, Ling Lan should just turn back and look for clues in the other direction. Ling Lan frowned, looking at that mountain peak, considering whether she should turn back.
"Ling Lan, you must remember that there is no such thing as' almost 'in learning physical skills, and there are no shortcuts. Through hard training, mastering everything means you know it, and not mastering everything means you don't know it. It only has these two types, and nothing else. "Instructor Number Nine's cool voice suddenly rang out in Ling Lan's mind.
Back then, when she was still learning basic physical skills, when Instructor Number Nine had asked her if she had learned them, Ling Lan had answered Number Nine that she had more or less learned them.
This answer had caused Instructor Number Nine to scold her harshly, warning her that no matter what she did, she had to be 100% sure before considering the next step.
To be 100% sure? Ling Lan scratched her head and sighed softly, giving up on the idea of turning back. This mission should not have a time limit. Since that was the case, she might as well run over and take a look. Ling Lan knew that if she did not confirm it, she would not be at ease.
Ling Lan continued walking towards that towering mountain peak. After about half an hour, Ling Lan finally arrived in front of that mountain peak.
This mountain peak was curved inwards, and this shape caused an oval-shaped flat area to appear in front of the mountain peak. Trees of all sizes grew on it, and some of the trees were even thicker and stronger. Who knew if they had been growing here for hundreds, or even thousands of years?
And Ling Lan's eyes lit up with just one glance. Because she saw an almost invisible path weaving through the forest. She had to thank Number One for letting her spend several months in the primordial forest, letting her learn how to find those very hidden but safe paths, whether it was the paths of wild beasts or herself.
The corners of Ling Lan's lips quirked up slightly. Sure enough, one had to be 100% sure in everything they did, otherwise it was easy to miss out on many opportunities.
Ling Lan stepped into the forest happily, following that hidden path in the forest and passing through this short 30 metres of forest. What came into view was the bottom of the mountain peak, that almost overlooked crack that could not be any thinner.
This crack was too small — it was impossible to see it from afar, and at close range, without passing through those towering trees blocking the view, it was impossible to see it.
A crack in the sky?
How hidden — the deception of sight and habitual thinking had caused many people to overlook it. And halfway through, Ling Lan had almost given up. Luckily, she still remembered Instructor Number Nine's words, allowing her to persevere.
Ling Lan was rather excited. Perhaps, there was the hint she needed in here? Or the answer?
Ling Lan slowly approached that crack. It was indeed a crack in the sky. That crack could only allow a person of average weight to pass through normally — if a fatter person wanted to pass through, they would probably have to make some preparations.
Of course, for Ling Lan, this was not difficult at all. Ling Lan's consciousness was now that of a 6 year old child. At the start, Ling Lan had not fully integrated with her body in this life, so when she had first entered the learning space, her consciousness had still retained the image of her previous life for a period of time. As she grew older in this life, the integration went smoothly — Ling Lan's image in the mindspace had already become one with her external image in this life, no longer being any different.
Ling Lan successfully passed through that crack in the sky. Unexpectedly, it was actually a valley within a valley. The first thing that came into view was a heavenly lake — the source of the small stream she had encountered along the way was probably this heavenly lake, and the water source for the heavenly lake came from the accumulated snow of the surrounding mountains.
Ling Lan circled around this heavenly lake that radiated with a faint chill, and continued along the small path. After walking for about 2 to 3 minutes, Ling Lan only saw a dazzling patch of golden light rush into her eyes, causing Ling Lan to subconsciously narrow her eyes.
This was a large field of paddy fields, one could almost say that it stretched as far as the eye could see. As the wind blew through the valley, the paddy fields rippled with golden waves. Right now, it was the time for the crops to ripen and harvest. Ling Lan had a sudden urge to rush in and harvest all this grain...
Er, the peasant mindset of her previous life once again affected Ling Lan's emotions. Ling Lan could not help but smile.
Just as Ling Lan was about to continue walking, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind. She remembered that mural that had sucked her into the black hole. In the first panel of the mural, hadn't there also been a paddy field like this?
Could it be that she had now entered the world of that mural?
That was really possible! Since she had been sucked in by that mural, then entering its world was very logical. If this speculation was correct, then Ling Lan had to consider — what exactly did the learning space want her to do by letting her enter this world?
Thinking back to the first and last mural, the main characters' smiles were similar, but they gave two completely different meanings. Ling Lan was somewhat enlightened — could it be that her mission had something to do with this smile?
Ling Lan had just thought of this when she heard a mechanical voice ring out from above the valley, "Congratulations, you have comprehended a key clue. Now, issuing the learning space's Unique Mission: Find the correct evolution path! "
