Even with his physical abilities intact, free-falling from ten thousand meters and crashing into the ground would not have been easy for Lin Yu to endure.
And now, after all his ability stats had been reduced to the extreme, Lin Yu was even less capable of ignoring the damage caused by the fall.
But...
Although he could not withstand it head-on, the Wind Vein Technique could not help him avoid the fall either. Lin Yu still had other means of preventing the damage.
