Perhaps she had exhausted too much energy from all the turmoil. After thinking for only a moment, Xu Zhi began to feel "hungry."
In truth, her mind was completely blank. She did not even know who she was. Rather than thinking, she had simply been staring blankly.
Only the sudden emergence of that "hunger" made her actually use her brain a little.
When she was hungry, naturally, she needed to eat. For some reason, Xu Zhi felt that the cocoons wrapped around her, seemingly formed from light, might be edible.
The thought felt somewhat familiar, making her even more certain she was right. But how was she supposed to eat them?
As she pondered this, certain instincts began to take effect. The energy within Xu Zhi, which had fallen dormant and evolved alongside her, slowly activated and began absorbing the surrounding "cocoons" on its own.
As the cocoons were gradually "eaten" by Xu Zhi, her hunger slowly subsided as well.
Along with the feeling of fullness, Xu Zhi's mind returned.
Knowledge and memories gradually revived, and Xu Zhi awakened from her previously almost childlike state.
But she was somewhat unsure of her current condition. What had happened after she lost consciousness?
Still, she unconsciously continued absorbing the light surrounding her. Once all the light had been absorbed, Xu Zhi felt that she had regained her "freedom."
When she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was the City Center.
But... the perspective was strange.
It seemed too high.
Xu Zhi frowned slightly and lowered her head in confusion, only to discover in surprise—
She was actually standing in midair?
She was not flying, nor was she suspended by anything, and she had not used a Supernatural Ability. She was simply standing in the air as normally as could be.
