187 Risk My Life Again and Again

"I sensed the power veins are lessening. If we lose more power veins, the spirit beings, including me and this sacred river, will face our worst nightmare, completely losing our powers. And if that happens, the power chain is beyond salvation. And the end of the world comes."

Xinyi sighed. His words confirmed what the late Sorceress mentioned to her.
