King of Nine Skies-Chapter 216 - :Exhausted energy
Chapter 216 - 216:Exhausted energy
On the vast and desolate ancient road, a carriage left a trail of impressions on the yellow earth as it rolled over.
This carriage was drawn by three wild horses. Besides, there were quite a few people riding on the wild horses in front and behind the carriage, as if they were guarding the carriage's progress.
"Ah..."
At this moment, the person driving the carriage slackened the reins and brought the carriage to a halt.
While the others moved forward, they circled around in one place. There, they saw a figure lying quietly on the ground, wearing a suit of armor. It seemed to be a sergeant.
"Mr. Fu, his breathing is normal, not showing any sign of disorder. He's still a living person, but he's unconscious."
The man who had just alighted from the carriage checked and then reported to the driver.
"Move him to the roadside. We still have to keep on going."
Fubao, the driver, said indifferently, and the man was about to comply. But at that moment, a slender, jade-like hand emerged from the curtain of the carriage, and then a delicate face like porcelain was revealed. It was a young girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old, with clear and constantly flickering eyes.
"Mr. Fob, how could a sergeant be lying in the middle of the road?"
The girl asked in a clear and crisp voice, "Uncle Fukuro shook his head and said, 'I'm not sure. But the ordinary soldiers of our Mo Yue are not usually too powerful. Unless it's a general at the rank of Thousand Captain or above, this person's strength should be very weak. Maybe he was abandoned on the way for some reason.' "
"Oh." The young girl nodded slightly, her eyes twinkling, and then said, "Bring him up to the carriage."
"Miss, this is not quite appropriate," said Mr. Forb, his gaze momentarily widening.
"It's all right, Mr. Fu," the girl smiled carelessly and addressed the person on Lin Feng's side, "Move that person over to my side."
The man glanced at Fob and saw Fob nod helplessly. So he had no choice but to move the lying body into the curtain of the carriage.
The procession moved on slowly once again. In the middle of the carriage's curtain, there were two women. Besides the delicate young girl, there was also a woman in her late teens or early twenties, who was rather beautiful.
"Zi Ling, why did you let a stranger come up here so casually?"
The girl in her early teens looked at the young lady who was curiously observing the young man lying in the carriage and couldn't help frowning.
"Dear Sister in Purple Robe, look, he seems very young. Guess how old he is?"
The young girl seemed not to have heard what the other person said. In her lively gaze, there was a touch of curiosity.
The girl in purple looked at the young woman helplessly for a moment, gave a slight shake of her head, and her gaze fell upon the lying figure's face. In the next moment, her eyes narrowed slightly.
"A very handsome and delicate young man."
Zi Yi sighed inwardly. Although this young man was unconscious, his face was sharp and angular, with dark eyebrows and a very delicate complexion. Even though he was unconscious, he still had an air of purity and grace about him.
Such a young man should not be a soldier in the army, why does he wear armor?
"Miss Zi, I reckon he's about your age. Besides, he's quite handsome. He's quite a good match for you."
The young girl went on talking to herself, as if she had discovered something novel.
"Rubbish."
The girl in purple snapped her fingers, looking somewhat displeased.
"Brother-in-law of Purple Robe, I was just joking with you. I know that your husband must be at least as capable as you. And you yourself are a genius with the cultivation level of the Spirit Martial Realm, Third Stage. How could he be stronger than you? He's still a young man and he's just a soldier. How could he possibly be superior to you?"
Zi Ling smiled with a tongue sticking out and said, "Let the purple-clad one shake his head in resignation."
"Zi Ling, don't just keep talking about me. You should better go and seek your talent in swordsmanship."
"Ha ha ha." Zilin smiled. "Purple-clad Sister, you said that Purple Qiong suddenly announced that she was going to get married. What on earth is going on? I've never heard that she has a preference for any particular woman before."
Upon hearing Zi Ling's words, Zi Yi frowned and then said, "The day of the sacrifice is approaching. Zi Qiong was supposed to get married before entering the forbidden area, so the big wedding is quite normal. As for that woman, I heard she was only acquainted with Zi Qiong a few days ago. I'm not sure exactly what happened."
Zi Ling's eyes flickered for a moment, then she shook her head in confusion.
However, just at this moment, the figure on the ground suddenly moved its fingers, catching Zilin's attention. She said, "He's awake."
One could see that the young man lying on the ground moved his eyelashes slightly, and then his eyes slowly opened.
These are two bright and clear eyes, large and shining. But at this moment, these eyes are filled with confusion.
It turned out that this young man was Lin Feng.
That day, after he left Duan Xinye, he walked for a while. Suddenly, he felt as if something abnormal and unfinished was happening to his body. Then, he fainted on the ground, with his mind blank.
What happened next he had no idea about. Even worse, he couldn't remember clearly how many days had passed.
Zi Ling and Zi Yi both noticed that Lin Feng's eyes were stunned for a moment. Such a handsome young man! Now that Lin Feng's eyes opened, they seemed even more delicate and elegant.
"Where am I?"
Lin Feng also looked at the two young ladies before him and asked in confusion.
"You woke up. I'm Zilin. I saw you lying there on a path. Just as we passed by, we carried you onto the carriage." Zilin's eyes kept rolling around, and she said to Lin Feng, "By the way, why did you faint on the path? Also, are you a sergeant? What rank are you? And how strong are you?"
Zi Ling kept asking a series of questions one after another, which made Lin Feng feel rather perplexed. He timidly asked, "Can I get up first?"
"Oh." Zilin felt a little embarrassed. Then she pulled Lin Feng who was lying on the ground to his feet and made him sit opposite her.
"My name is Lin Feng. I fainted because of the injury. I'm just an ordinary non-commissioned officer. As for my actual strength... "
Lin Feng said as he tried to mobilize the primordial qi of heaven and earth within him. But in the next moment, Lin Feng's gaze faltered. At this moment, he felt his body was completely empty, with not a single trace of primordial qi.
"What's going on?"
Lin Feng's heart quivered violently for a moment. His pupils contracted sharply. He clearly remembered that his realm had been broken through and his strength should have increased. Why was there no slightest fluctuation of primordial energy in his body at this moment? He couldn't even mobilize any primordial energy from the universe.
" What's wrong with you?" Zilin noticed Lin Feng's change in expression and asked, "You just said about your strength, didn't you?"
Lin Feng glanced at Zilin for a moment, then his eyes closed slightly, absorbing everything around him, very clearly.
Even so, even if he doesn't release the first layer of Tensei's Spirit Body, he is already able to introspect himself, and even see his tendons, bones, and flesh, and feel everything within his body.
In an area of several thousand square kilometers, everything that happened was so clear that as long as Lin Feng wanted to know about it, he could bring it to his mind.
"Exactly, the realm has indeed been elevated. Moreover, the tendons and bones within me seem to be more perfect than before."
Lin Feng opened his eyes and clenched his fists tightly. He had a lot of strength. Although there was no fluctuation of vital energy, in terms of sheer strength, the power in his hands at this moment was stronger than before when he didn't use the primordial energy of heaven and earth. The enhancement of pure strength meant that his physical fitness was even stronger.

But strangely enough, Lin Feng couldn't muster up the slightest bit of vitality. No, it should be said that the vitality within him had completely drained away.
"What on earth is going on here?"
Lin Feng's brows were tightly knitted. Clearly, his cultivation level had risen, but his vital energy had dried up. What on earth was going on?
Could it be that after he broke through and reached the realm of integrating human and sword, something abnormal happened to his body? Did it cause a temporary depletion of the vital energy within him?
Lin Feng tried to activate the Pure Essence Technique. However, after activating the technique, no celestial or elemental essence entered his body. It seemed as if everything outside had cut off all connections with his body. No matter how he called out, it wouldn't respond.
Not to mention that he had ever witnessed such a situation, Lin Feng had never heard of it before. But he never expected that it would happen to him.
His brows tightened and tightened, and after a long time, Lin Feng's brows finally relaxed a little. Let it be. The improvement of his cultivation level is here. He can't become a useless person.
Perhaps, by some chance, it might be that I am entering into a wonderful state of mind by accident.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng's expression also relaxed somewhat. At this moment, he didn't have the strong aura or the sickly aura. He was just an ordinary person, but he was rather handsome and very delicate.
"Why don't you say anything?"
Zi Ling noticed that Lin Feng's expression kept changing, but he remained silent. Once again, he asked inquiringly.
Lin Feng raised his head and glanced at Ziyun for a moment. His gaze flickered for a brief second. Then he said, "I, it seems that I lack the strength."
"Without strength?" Zilin exclaimed in surprise, a strange color flashing in her eyes.
"Scrap?"
The one in purple attire was even more straightforward. Frowning, he said, "Without strength, one is nothing but a useless piece of trash. In the Martial Cultivation Continent, one has no place to stand and is despised by others. Even with a good appearance."
At this moment, in her eyes there was a hint of mocking expression, and she looked down upon and despised Lin Feng.
