When the golden light vanished, Lin Cheng suddenly let out a heavy breath.
He knew that from this moment on, there was no turning back for him.
This mysterious space was his greatest reliance.
Very soon.
Within Civilization City, Lin Cheng slowly opened his eyes. The overwhelming torrent of immortal power in the void finally began to fade away, no longer being absorbed.
Lin Cheng froze slightly at the sight.
Then, the next second, a round ball flashed into view before him, its pair of melancholy eyes brimming with resentment...
"You really can eat." A cool voice rang out, carrying a trace of indignation.
Only then did Lin Cheng notice that the ball's body had dimmed considerably. It had once been plump and radiant, but now it looked like an old light bulb weathered by the passage of years...
Filled with the weariness of time.
"I caused you trouble this time."
In an instant, Lin Cheng understood. Opening up that mysterious void just now must have consumed far too much power.
Even Civilization City had suffered immense depletion.
It had nearly been drained dry.
Not only immortal power, but vast amounts of all kinds of other energy had been devoured completely by Lin Cheng.
It would take quite some time to recover.
Hearing Lin Cheng's thanks, the ball rolled its eyes and stared at him gloomily.
Lin Cheng: "..."
"There's nothing else on my end. If you have something to do, go ahead and get back to it first..."
Before he could finish, the ball vanished with a whoosh!
Lin Cheng: "..." Good grief!
Was he really that scary?
Or was he just really unlikeable—no, un-ball-likeable?
Why did it run so fast every time it saw him?
After being looked down on like that, Lin Cheng's mood unexpectedly improved quite
