Ai Hui plopped down on the ground, the monster's corpse lying motionlessly by his legs. Exhaustion washed over him, and his eyelids grew heavy. This was the first time since entering this world that he felt tired.

A strong feeling of hunger overwhelmed him as he swallowed his saliva. It was only now that he realized just how long it had been since his last meal. Regaining his senses, Ai Hui reminded himself that there was no need to eat in this mental world.

Ai Hui confirmed that it was not an illusion when he noticed that his body had become slightly translucent. The previous battle appeared to have caused considerable damage to himself, so much so that even his spirit swords had lost their sheen.
