Breathing a bit rough with sweat dripping down his forehead, Alex felt as though his heart was going to tear apart.
At the moment when he was using the sword qi from the Dao Sprout Stage, he felt immense strength go to his body. It came at a price, Alex's body wasn't strong enough to withstand the energy from the Dao Sprout stage.
Though Xander had told him that it would be okay for him to use this energy, he still felt strained.
"If I truly hadn't listened to you guys, I might have stubbornly chosen to use the astral energy and sword heart qi the day we woke up in this body."
Alex said, referring to the time one of the guardians of the garrison put a spear's blade to his neck.
'Of course we were right, do you think we have the energy to want to deceive you?' Al said.
Alex chuckled and ignored what Al had said. At this point, he felt like he was out of it and didn't want to fight anymore.
