Chapter 50: Stepping Into The Time Core Is Truly Difficult!
"Damn!" Kranos cursed under his breath. He had nearly stepped into the Time Core Realm but he didn’t expect his mistake to almost cost him his life. Fortunately, he halted the process just in time, any further misstep would have probably caused irreparable damage.
Kranos didn’t feel too disappointed because of such minor setback. He immediately retrieved a healing pill from his spatial ring and consumed it to begin repairing his damaged hand and meridians.
Simultaneously, he absorbed mana, channeling it to aid the recovery. Luckily, the injuries weren’t too severe—it would take only about a week for full recovery.
In the blink of an eye, a week passed. Kranos’s hand had significantly healed; at least it no longer caused him pain or discomfort.
Without hesitation, he sat down and resumed his attempt to comprehend the essence of time. After two days of deep meditation, he gradually entered that mysterious state once more.
Suddenly, his hand flashed like lightning, grasping something ethereal. He struck his chest, and in the next moment, the strand of the essence of time withered Kranos hand once again and entered his meridians slowly trying to corrode it.
But this time, Kranos was prepared. As soon as the strand entered his meridians, he activated his time core in his mental space and began to revolve it, slowly making it attract the strand of the essence of time.
During his recovery, he had spent time pondering how to guide the essence without damaging his meridians. After hours of reflection information slowly revealed itself to him, Kranos realised then that it was the time core manual at work.
He had grasped another portion of the Time Core Manual. As the Time Core continued revolving Kranos faintly felt that the strand of the essence of time seemed to encounter a family member... like a fish swimming in a lake it hastily darted through his meridians, eager to reach the core
