Chapter 617: Successfully Transfer Energy

Xue Wei grit his teeth as he persevered. He was feeling uncomfortable and sweat was beginning to bead on his forehead as he took deep breaths in an attempt to keep his stream of spiritual energy even while roaming through Bai Tianyi's body.

While he was trying to keep squeezing energy out of his body, he felt as if some sort of barrier was holding his energy back, trying to slow the speed of which it was leaving him, in an attempt to avoid letting the last few drops leave his body.

Even so, with the decisive actions of Xue Wei, the barrier was not enough to hold it back, and suddenly, as if a plug had been released, the final strands of spiritual energy left Xue Wei's body, alongside his entire cultivation base in this particular field.

He was aware that with this change, he would no longer be able to refine medicinal pills, nor would he be able to make inscriptions or formations, but these things could be ignored. For now, he was focusing on Bai Tianyi, hoping that the treatment had helped him clear the corruption.

"He should be fine."

Luoluo took a deep breath and released the stale air that she had held in. She had been fully focused on any move that Xue Wei had done during the energy transfer, and she had to admit that she admired this young man more and more.

If Xue Wei had even the slightest doubt or hesitation when doing the transfer of energy, then the consequences would be grave for both him and Bai Tianyi. If not for being their only solution, Luoluo would never have suggested this option.

Fortunately, Xue Wei lived up to her trust and did not hesitate to give away his spiritual energy base in return for a hope that Bai Tianyi would be purified.

"Will he wake up soon?"

Xue Wei was feeling feeble and nauseous. Although he was not suffering any direct damage, his soul had weakened drastically, and so had his senses.

The spiritual energy had usually helped him be able to oversee the entire area with his spiritual energy, but now that he was no longer able to do so, he felt as if all his senses had been crippled or at least weakened greatly. Such an experience was not pleasant at all.

"He should wake up within a day or two." Luoluo looked at Bai Tianyi's condition, and the heart that had been hanging since he became corrupted finally fell to its place.

"The treatment was in time, and while he will not be able to be saved if he becomes corrupted again, this time, the consequences are already the best possible."

"In that case, let us just camp here for now. Get some rest, and try to see if you can regulate your condition."

Xue Wei was not eager to pause anywhere within No Man's Land, but he did not have much of an option. No Man's Land consisted of many areas, and each area was different. It was clear that while the danger in each zone would not be the same as the one before, they were all dangerous to an extreme degree, so although he felt uncomfortable while being here, it was much better than being chased by endless hordes of beasts.

As such, they should take the time to take a short rest and prepare for continuing their travels when Bai Tianyi woke up again.

"Rest first; I will keep an eye on the surroundings and Bai Tianyi for now. After some time, someone else can take over."

Luoluo volunteered to take the first watch, as she needed to keep an eye on Bai Tianyi. Although it seemed as if the energy was delivered in a timely manner, she still had to ensure that the spirit body would accept the energy properly and purify the corruption.

Since the energy did not come from his original source, there was a small chance of his core suddenly reacting violently and consider the energy as a hostile force. If this happened, she would have to sacrifice her own cultivation base to save Bai Tianyi, but doing this, she would suffer greatly.

Xue Wei was not aware of Luoluo's thoughts, but he was currently feeling uncomfortable, and his head was heavy, so he accepted her offer right away, as he closed his eyes and began to adjust his breath and slowly begin to clear his mind.

Although his discomfort was not due to pain but the sudden change by his sensitivity and senses, he still had to take some time to adjust his current body. Before he had gotten used to the current situation, he would feel uncomfortable, and it would also influence his fighting and general behavior.

Time pa.s.sed slowly. A few hours later, Luoluo woke up Ling Xiao and asked him to take over the watch as she rested. She had made certain that Bai Tianyi would not have any violent reaction to the energy and that he was absorbing the energy as planned, so it was merely a question about time before he woke up.

Luoluo had not used any of her energy on Bai Tianyi, but she had been very focused and her entire mind had been focused on ensuring that the corruption could be purified, which had caused her to be tense and worried.

Now that she was a.s.sured about Bai Tianyi's success, she no longer tried to hold on and quickly made Ling Xiao take over the watch, while she also sat down in a similar way to Xue Wei and began to adjust her breath. Unlike Xue Wei, she was not going to deal with the actual strength, instead she needed to calm her mind.
