It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future

1357 Starting From Zero the Next Day!

After using concept energies from the Heart of Imperial to push through the pathway into the learning space, Ling Lan’s mindscape exploded in a bang, causing her to fall unconscious.

Even with Ling Lan’s strong spiritual power, the terrifying energy created from instantaneous shock was still too much for her to handle. Her mind automatically protected her by making her fall into a deep sleep.

Just like that, Ling Lan was in a trance for quite some time, not knowing how long had passed. Finally, she felt something around her. She didn’t know who was softly breathing on her face. It made her feel somewhat itchy and uncomfortable.

Ling Lan slowly opened her eyes and saw Little White’s large round eyes with tears within them. The itchy feeling she had was Little White using its little tentacles carefully wiping off the blood coming out of the corner of her mouth.

Seeing its master awaken, Little White called out excitedly. action

“Wah wah wah, master, you’re finally awake. You slept for three days. I thought you were going to leave me all by myself. Wah wah wah...” Little White spoke as tears flew everywhere. It seemed Ling Lan’s deep sleep did indeed terrify it.

Ling Lan put her hand out and softly caressed Little White’s small head and said in a hoarse voice, “Don’t worry, I won’t leave you behind.”

Little White’s white hairs had already turned gray from dust. Some parts of its hairs were even in knots and filled with mud that were already dry. These were all around its body. It seemed that during the past few days, while Little White was guarding her, it didn’t even have time to clean its little white hairs. It should be known that Little White liked being clean and would always clean its little white hairs from time to time. Sometimes even Ling Lan thought it was excessive.

Now, it seemed like she was the most important thing on Little White’s mind. It wasn’t how she thought Little White was forced to follow her. If Little White cared for her so much, then she would also treat Little White as an important family member and never leave its side.

Acquiring Ling Lan’s acknowledgment was actually quite difficult. Ling Lan’s would never put forth feelings into someone first. However, if she were to feel that someone cared for her genuinely, she wouldn’t shun them away. Instead, she would put them in her care and put forth her true feelings as well.

“Rawr!” (Master, how are you doing right now? You spat out a lot of blood. I’m scared.)

Little White was deeply traumatized after remembering Ling Lan’s terrible state in the past two days. In those two days, it actually thought its master was going to leave it. It thought that it wouldn’t be able to see its master open her eyes again and talk to it.

“I’m awake so I’m fine.” Ling Lan held Little White in her arms and softly caressed the hairs on its body. Little White’s warm body temperature made Ling Lan feel that she was still living in reality.

At the last moment before she closed her eyes, she felt her mindscape explode after using the Heart of Imperial to force open the learning space, Ling Lan had thought she was actually going to die. However, now it seemed that Hades probably thought she was too troublesome and sent her back into the world of the living.

“Did anything happen in the rainbow palace in the past few days?” Since she was now fine, Ling Lan returned to reality and began asking Little White about the current state of affairs.

“Rawr!” (Nothing. It’s been very quiet.)

Little White thought carefully for a moment. Although its main body was by its master’s side this entire time, there was still a clone of it looking over everyone in the rainbow palace. It should be fine since it didn’t see anyone coming in to try to destroy them.

“Forget it. I’ll wait until my injuries are healed and go up and take a look.” Little White’s answer made Ling Lan smile. With Little White’s simple thought processes, she actually couldn’t get much information out of it.

“Rawr!” (Master, don’t worry. I will protect you.)

Seeing Little White trying to get on her good side, Ling Lan smiled. “Alright then, don’t let me down.”

After that, Ling Lan closed her eyes once again and began to use her Qi exercises to repair the damage caused by the explosion from using the Heart of Imperial’s concept energy.

Ling Lan had the Qi exercises ever since she was inside her mother’s womb and never stopped in the past 20 or so years. She didn’t know just how many levels the Qi exercises had, but looking at how it recovered her body’s injuries, Ling Lan hypothesized that the level she reached was probably quite high.

She slowly organized the messy concept energies. Other than the ice element and her Profound Insight concept, there was another unknown concept energy that didn’t belong to either of them. Ling Lan knew that the energy must be the culprit that caused the Heart of Imperial to implode. Ling Lan attempted to get rid of that problematic concept energy out of her body but to her surprise, she found out it was actually entwined with her Profound Insight concept. No matter how much Ling Lan tried to get rid of it, it wouldn’t budge even one bit.

After failing to do so for more than 10 times, Ling Lan finally gave up. It was because she had discovered the more she tried to get rid of it, the more the unknown concept energy wrapped around her own Profound Insight concept energy. It was as though she wasn’t trying to get rid of it, but rather compressing and combining it.

“Man, I still have other things to do. Whatever.” Ling Lan gave up on it and began to focus on her Qi exercises to repair her body’s injuries. One round after the other, the Qi exercises began to repeat itself automatically. After not needing her to focus her attention on it, Ling Lan put her focus on her mindscape.

The part where her mindscape had exploded worried Ling Lan a lot. It was just that she was injured too severely that she had to focus on her body’s injuries. Now that her injuries didn’t need her attention, Ling Lan decided to investigate this part of her mindscape.

She carefully stepped into her mindscape. As expected, the condition of the mindscape was terrible. The originally vast and limitless mindscape had disappeared, not to mention the dark clouds, strong winds, thunder and lightning. There was only a wasteland left there, as if it was the end of the world.

“Looks grim. Starting from zero it seems.” Right as Ling Lan was going to use her spiritual power, she felt a sharp pain in her head. It almost caused her to faint, a sign that her spiritual power had been depleted. Currently, Ling Lan couldn’t use her spiritual power and could only let her spiritual power recover naturally.

“It seems now I can only leave it up to fate,” Ling Lan said helplessly.

Ling Lan turned her gaze to a certain area inside the mindscape since the entire mindscape didn’t need her to tend to it. In the past, she had always refused to enter that place, but now...

Ling Lan felt somewhat helpless. She hoped that the Heart of Imperial could successfully help her break through into the learning space, but she was also afraid of it failing. She just needed to investigate to see whether it had worked, but Ling Lan actually felt somewhat afraid and scared.

If it didn’t work, then in her current state, she didn’t know when she would have another chance at breaking through the learning space. Her Little Four and instructors... she really missed them. Even hearing Instructor Number One’s reprimanding voice would still make her feel warm inside.

Ling Lan, who lost so much, wanted a family member to stay by her side. She was afraid her hope would be destroyed again. She didn’t know whether she would become insane from the pain if the outcome was a failure.
