As before,
Zhou Xuan, half-awake and half-asleep, had the blood from the Ten Fingers absorbed again, bringing a minty coolness that roamed through his body.
But now, the Ten Fingers were much weaker than before; having learned from the previous Blood Talisman ignition, it understood that polluting the cautious Zhou Lingyi was impossible.
All it could do was wait to die, to wait for its flesh to be completely absorbed by Zhou Xuan through the repeated sacrifices.
The pain of Zhou Xuan,
was suppressed.
"Sleep, sleep, little brother, have a sweet dream and forget everything that happened just now."
...
After dawn, Zhou Xuan woke up slowly, feeling his body full of strength, with no pain in his head or eyes.
Zhou Xuan focused his mind on the Divine Revelation Secret Realm, surprisingly finding that the incense was burning much faster, and the sound of the boat's bow striking the water was like a big drum, powerful and resonant, making his ears buzz.
