Peach Blossom Spring
Outside, there were still mountains—mountains repeating endlessly, layered one upon another, like ripples produced when space crumpled on a small scale.
After recovering from the heart-pounding acceleration, deceleration, and dizziness along the way, Yu Sheng saw the "endlessly repeating mountains" Huli had described.
The continuous mountain ranges spread infinitely through his field of vision like ripples radiating outward. A hazy mist shrouded the spaces between the mountains, and amid the swirling fog, there was no outline to be seen apart from "mountains."
Yu Sheng furrowed his brows and stared for a long while at the mountains in the distance, which looked as though they had been copied endlessly. Then he suddenly remembered the café where he had met Baili Qing. At the time, that café had also repeated and extended infinitely in the same way, all the way to the edge of his vision.
