Before Su Jiu lost consciousness completely, she seemed to see golden light shoot out from within the door, piercing straight through the entire Hongsheng Heavenly Road.
But immediately afterward, she felt a strange power press down on her Divine Sense, plunging her into darkness.
Yes, she had passed out again.
What she did not know was that, as she lost consciousness, the spirits on her body fell unconscious one after another as well.
In the end, only Little Green, the Spirit Vein Spirit's Clone, remained awake.
The golden light vanished, and so did the stone door. Even the stone steps that formed the Hongsheng Heavenly Road gradually disappeared.
At last, only Su Jiu remained, floating in that boundless gray expanse.
Without guidance from anyone or any Divine Sense, Su Jiu's body slowly drifted into the door through which she had come.
Back then, Chu Luohen had walked for an unknown stretch of time to reach this place, yet Su Jiu's body took only a dozen or so breaths to float from its original position into the doorway.
The world beyond the door remained pure white and sacred.
Her body fell straight into the pool at its very center, which radiated dense Spiritual Qi.
Had Su Jiu awakened then, she would have discovered that the pool contained not only liquefied Spiritual Qi, but also exceptionally dense Innate Origin Qi.
Little Green slowly detached itself from Su Jiu's wrist and rose into the air.
It floated over to the white statue of a goddess and said disdainfully, "Making a Spirit Vein Spirit like me approach Innate Origin Qi-are you afraid I won't dissipate quickly enough?"
Specks of light began spilling out around the goddess statue. Before long, the statue seemed a little more alive, though she still could not move at all.
