"What am I..."
In a hidden, unexplored mountain foothill in Zhangjiajie, inside a cave sealed by a massive boulder.
Jiang Siming slowly awoke. Looking at the cave before him, he wore a dazed expression.
At that moment, his Myriad Dragon Armor lay quietly beside him in the cave, covered in scorch marks left by lightning strikes.
Jiang Siming remembered that on the previous two nights, while he had been half-conscious, the searing flames inside his body seemed to have been constantly eased by someone.
He had originally estimated that even if he survived this time, he would still be crippled by the backlash of his internal energy. After all, he had chosen not to absorb the huge energy from his home.
Yet it had burst out, and the backlash from that power was enough to make his cultivation drop by at least two stages.
It might even have directly ruptured his dantian and returned him to the status of an ordinary person.
Besides, enormous thunderclaps had been ringing in his ears throughout the past two days, yet they had failed to wake him.
Now it seemed that the Myriad Dragon Armor had saved his life and helped him survive the most dangerous Spirit Transformation stage tribulation.
But who had been providing energy to his dantian all this time?
Jiang Siming scratched his head. The moment he raised his hand, it touched something furry. Looking down, he saw A'Li and A'Nan lying asleep in his arms, one on each side.
The two little ones were still in animal form, as if nothing had happened. Yet when Jiang Siming shook them, they did not react at all.
If Jiang Siming had not immediately checked their condition and discovered that they were merely asleep, he would have thought A'Nan and A'Li were dead.
