What the hell is happening?

Was it so in the air?

Maybe I'm just tired

YeahHe was probably just tired

Ten minutes later, the sensation intensifiedNow it felt like an invisible weight was pressing down on his chestFckWhat the hell's wrong with ainst the tree trunkDon't panic, don't panicThen, he reHe closed his eyes and , and Huiyin

Calmness washed over him, but the weird sensation was still thereWhichto do with his state ofexhaled slowly and tried to thinkIs this a spell? Is there an ene activated Xianjue

That hen he saw it

Hovering above the te arhat

There was a bright flash of gold

Next thing he knew, the apparition was charging straight at him

Uh-oh…
