Chapter 865 - 965: One Dream, a Thousand Years
"So, after I go in, what should I do?" Ye Tianfan asked, after all, he couldn't just sit there doing nothing, he definitely needed to do something!"You don't need to do anything, just sit there!" Bang Dali responded.
"Just sit there?" Ye Tianfan was surprised upon hearing this. A Trial of the Heart, where you just sit and do nothing?
"Of course, you can lie down if you want!" Bang Dali continued, "After all, the Trial of the Heart tests your inner self. It doesn't matter what posture you have, as long as you're inside this Iceberg of the Heart, you'll be part of the Trial of the Heart! So your posture doesn't matter at all!"
Ye Tianfan nodded after hearing this, understanding what Bang Dali meant, "Alright then, I'll go in! There's nothing else to pay attention to, right?"
Bang Dali, hearing Ye Tianfan's words, formed a Spell in his hands and gestured for Ye Tianfan to enter, saying, "There's nothing to pay attention to, just realize as soon as possible that you're in a trial, not reality. Wake up quickly, don't get lost in that world. Even though it's terrifyingly real, don't get lost!"
Ye Tianfan nodded and said to Bang Dali, "Don't worry, I'll wake up soon!"
Bang Dali then said unequivocally, "I'll wait for you for three days. If you haven't woken up within three days, I'll come in and bring you out!"
"Three days? Isn't three days a bit too short?" Ye Tianfan asked, as three days indeed seemed short.
"It's not short. In the Trial of the Heart, typically, three days in the outside world equals three years in the trial, so you're given three years. It's not short." Bang Dali explained.
Ye Tianfan was taken aback by this time ratio but quickly realized that Bang Dali mentioned 'typically,' meaning there are atypical situations, so Ye Tianfan asked, "What if it's not typical?"
"Atypical means it's not following that time ratio, but the exact time ratio varies from person to person. Sometimes only a second passes in the trial while three days pass outside, or thirty years might pass in the trial with just three days outside. It's unpredictable." Bang Dali explained to Ye Tianfan.
Ye Tianfan was astonished by this chaotic time ratio and asked uncertainly, "What if I have a special time ratio? What if you pull me out right after I enter the trial?"
Bang Dali laughed and said, "Then you just go back in again. If one second in the trial equals three days outside, or even more, then what are you doing in the trial? It's not worth it. By the time you wake up, our Dali Sect might have gone through several generations of renewal!"
Ye Tianfan thought about it and agreed, it made sense.
"However, if your time ratio is more than one year to one day, then you shouldn't continue any longer. If you haven't woken up in three years, going further will only lead you deeper." Bang Dali told Ye Tianfan.
Ye Tianfan nodded, understanding that if you can't wake up in over three years, you'll only sink deeper. Once you wake up, realizing you're in a trial, you'll only further hone your mentality in the ensuing trial without sinking into it!
If you don't wake up, you'll just sink deeper!
Ye Tianfan nodded at Bang Dali and walked towards the Iceberg of the Heart. He stood before the small door Bang Dali opened, took a deep breath, and entered decisively!
After Ye Tianfan entered the Iceberg of the Heart, he didn't feel anything nor the sensation of being in a trial. Somewhat puzzled, he looked at Bang Dali!
Bang Dali, from outside, told Ye Tianfan, "Find a comfortable position and sit, then I'll close the door. The moment the door closes, the trial will activate!"
Ye Tianfan nodded upon hearing this, found a comfortable spot, and sat down. To his surprise, it was quite comfortable sitting there. From outside, the iceberg looked solid, but inside, it appeared entirely made of ice and also solid. Yet, Ye Tianfan could move through the ice with ease. Isn't that fascinating?
But Ye Tianfan didn't delve into it further, as it wasn't his concern. His focus should be on how to wake up from the trial, which surely presented his ideal state without any flaws, as it emerged from his deepest desires and reality. As long as he believed a person should be a certain way, that's how they'd appear in the trial, without causing any suspicion.
Ye Tianfan sat cross-legged and waved at Bang Dali outside, indicating he was ready, so Bang Dali withdrew his Spell.
Then, everything went black for Ye Tianfan as he fell into sleep!
Ye Tianfan didn't know how long he had been asleep. All he knew was he should wake up, so he did, and saw a disciple guarding outside the iceberg hurriedly shouting, "This person is awake, this person is awake!"
The disciple not only shouted but also ran out to spread the word!
Ye Tianfan looked at the scene outside, noticing it seemed different from three days ago, and he couldn't recall the scenes from the trial!
While Ye Tianfan was still puzzled about the outside situation, a loud noise suddenly startled him awake. He looked aside and saw a person resembling Bang Dali, though much older, with a long beard!
The Bang Dali-like figure, upon seeing Ye Tianfan truly awake, hastily formed a Spell and shouted, "You finally woke up! Do you know how I got through this last thousand years?"
"A thousand years?" Ye Tianfan froze upon hearing the term. What thousand years? What had happened?
Before Ye Tianfan could inquire further, the Bang Dali-like person swiftly moved from outside the mountain to Ye Tianfan's side in a flash, then another flash took Ye Tianfan out!
