Shi Xing was falling.
He didn't lose consciousness completely.
In fact, since he entered the second stage of maturity, he would faint from time to time, but this did not reduce everyone's worries, because as his abilities grew, his body would still have uncomfortable symptoms. He was no longer unconscious, but the corresponding symptoms would last longer, from a week or two at the shortest, to nearly two months at the longest.
He was falling, but he felt like something was pulling him, so that he didn't move very fast.
It wasn't the energy of the wind.
Shi Xing could feel it.
He was too tired, exhausted, and didn't have the mental strength to use the talent of his partner that he had gained from his spiritual sea.
But something was constantly rushing in, supporting him in a virtual way.
Shi Xing felt like he had turned into a feather, swaying and slowly moving downwards.
In fact, his feeling was correct.
Because the energy dissipated in the air around him, as he absorbed it, had formed an energy vortex that surrounded him.
And the center of the vortex was exactly him.
Chi Yao rushed out, followed closely by Er Ya, Fei Chu and Fu Qing, as well as all the senior officers of Shi Xing's team, Tan Jue Yinggeng and Xiang Fei, followed in a row behind them.
Realizing something, Er Ya turned around and shouted to Fei Chu, "Tell the remaining officers and troops in the rear not to come, Shi Xing is still absorbing energy!"
Er Ya stretched out her hand and moved forward at high speed. In addition to the wind penetrating her fingers, hidden in the wind was the rapidly surging energy.
Fei Chu was startled, then he pressed the communicator and shouted.
"Bi Zhou, let the team retreat with you as the dividing line. Something is not right here."
Bi Zhou was stunned. "Ah, then I..."
Fei Chu understood and said, "You naturally don't come either, go back!"
Indeed, seeing that something was wrong between Shi Xing and Chi Yao, Er Ya and Fei Chu were chasing them, and Bi Zhou subconsciously followed them.
Gritting his teeth, Bi Zhou responded, "Okay."
"Call me if you have anything."
Even though he has not fully grown, his mental strength is not weak, second only to Chi Yao.
Fei Chu did not answer. There was only the sound of whirring wind on the communicator, and he did not bother to answer.
Er Ya turned around and released the barrier to block most of the people who followed closely behind him. Fei Chu cooperated tacitly and immediately shouted, "Something is not right. You wait here first!"
As the first team leader to join Shi Xing, Fei Chu's status was second only to Shi Xing.
Ying Geng and Qin Jue replied quickly: "Received."
They immediately assembled their troops and stood by.
Erya frowned again, "No, that's bad..."
The barrier she released in the air was also melting. In addition to absorbing individual mental power in a targeted manner, Shi Xing was almost absorbing the energy in the air without distinction.
But the key is that he has already absorbed a D-level 3s mutant beast. So much energy...
Erya is afraid that Shi Xing can't eat it and can't digest it!
"Can you catch up with Chi Yao?"
Erya asked Fu Qing.
Fu Qing said sincerely, "That requires full speed, and you may feel a little dizzy."
Erya: "Then full speed."
Hazy, Shi Xing saw someone rushing towards him from the horizon, calling his name.
"Your Highness..."
Shi Xing murmured unconsciously.
Seeing Shi Xing falling, Chi Yao almost dived down without thinking.
As they got closer, in a trance, a rare look of anxiety appeared on Chi Yao's face in Shi Xing's vision.
Was he worried about him?
Chi Yao didn't touch Shi Xing in the end, and was interrupted by Er Ya who came after him, and directly set up a barrier to prevent him from approaching.
Er Ya shouted, "Don't get close, he is still absorbing the dissipated energy in the surrounding air."
"If you touch him and his mental power is sucked out like a star beast, the situation will be worse. The mental sea has a limited capacity for energy, and it can't withstand so much high-level mental power!"
Er Ya's words quickly calmed Chi Yao down.
After carefully distinguishing and perceiving, Chi Yao frowned. Er Ya was right. The energy in the air was gathering towards Shi Xing, and even the barrier released by Er Ya collapsed into pure energy beside Shi Xing, and then followed the air, all flowing towards Shi Xing.
"You remove the barrier!"
If it is kept, Shi Xing will absorb more after it collapses.
Seeing Chi Yao's reaction, Er Ya followed suit and withdrew his mental power.
A wind surged from the bottom, and when it was approaching Shi Xing, it lost its restraint and was only used to prevent him from falling.
After a few seconds, or more than ten seconds, Shi Xing's body finally reached balance under the influence of the wind and was suspended in the air.
Knowing that Shi Xing would absorb mental power, Chi Yao did not dare to use mental power to control the wind at a close distance, and could only do this much.
During this period, Er Ya, Fei Chu and Fu Qing also arrived at Chi Yao's side one after another.
Er Ya: "I will clear the energy in the surrounding air to let him absorb less."
Chi Yao nodded. Er Ya estimated the radius of Shi Xing's forced absorption of mental power, released mental power outside the radius, and first absorbed the energy that gathered towards Shi Xing.
Fei Chu: "What should we do now? We can't just let the wind carry us like this. Will Xingxing's body get sick if the wind blows for too long?"
Fu Qing choked and slowly admitted, "It's very likely."
Shi Xing's body really couldn't withstand too much torture.
Fei Chu had a headache: "We've been fighting for so long, and that place is full of dissipated energy from the battle just now. Do we have to put Xingxing into space?"
Er Ya immediately rejected his proposal, "Impossible, there are also energy chaos in outer space, are you sure it won't be attracted?"
"And the energy exchange in his body is also very large now. He released a little mental power on the deserted planet and attracted a D-level mutant beast. Now that we have just solved it, can you guarantee that it won't attract more powerful things in space?"
Fei Chu was speechless.
He couldn't guarantee it.
Fu Qing: "Let the unmanned ship come over and catch the person first?"
Chi Yao changed his tone, "Okay."
It's a way.
Ye Jun personally controlled an unmanned warship to come here to prevent Shi Xing from absorbing the crystals in the energy warehouse. Outside the energy warehouse, Erya's barrier overlapped Chi Yao's, firmly locking and protecting the power source.
In a moment, Shi Xing fell into the unmanned ship, and before entering, he supported the dome with his hands.
Erya found something, "He didn't lose consciousness."
Chi Yao's voice was very light, "He didn't faint, but he was very uncomfortable."
From the shadows, Chi Yao could feel Shi Xing's trance. He didn't faint, but he didn't have much independent consciousness left.
Erya was stunned: "Connect?"
Chi Yao nodded.
At the critical moment, the Blue Star people and their partners at both ends of the connection will produce some empathy.
Shi Xing had been through too much today. First, he tested the formation against the SS-class star beast, tested the new combat plan, then opened a barrier to block it, and finally was dragged away by the mutant star beast's mutant ability...
Chi Yao frowned, shook his head, abandoned these disturbing thoughts, and followed the battleship carrying Shi Xing to descend.
The clouds in Shi Xing's eyes were getting farther and farther away.
The body went from the initial comfort of absorbing energy to extremely uncomfortable again.
It didn't look like there was any external injury, but the ups and downs of the energy in the spiritual sea made Shi Xing feel as if all his internal organs had shifted. He couldn't tell where he felt uncomfortable, but he felt uncomfortable everywhere.
His body was very heavy, as if it was filled with lead, and it was difficult to move.
Shi Xing's breathing was heavy, like an old bellows, which gave people the illusion of being broken.
During this time, Erya used her mental power to scan Shi Xing's spiritual sea. As she expected, after absorbing the mutant mental power of the star beast, Shi Xing's spiritual sea was closed again. From the outside, one could feel that the inside was filled with an incredible amount of energy, but one could not get in at all.
It is a protection for outsiders, and also a self-protection behavior.
But during the descent, Shi Xing's rate of absorbing energy did not slow down.
Perhaps because of the absorption of Chi Yao's mental power, Shi Xing can also use his natural ability. Under normal circumstances, it is a good thing, but now... Chi Yao can feel that the surrounding wind is converging towards them. The wind speed is not high, but it wraps around the energy dissipated in the air.
A few minutes later, the unmanned battleship landed.
The army that received the order had already landed more than a thousand meters away from here.
Bi Zhou also rushed over with the things Chi Yao wanted.
It was an emergency robot on the main ship.
The battleship opened, and the robot took out Shi Xing and placed him on the military inflatable air cushion.
The moment he saw Shi Xing's face, Chi Yao's heart shrank. He subconsciously took a step forward, but restrained himself and stopped.
Shi Xing was still conscious.
He could sense that something was wrong with him, but he had to wait until he sat up to know what was wrong...
Shi Xing put his hands on the inflatable air cushion. He knew that there were people in front of him and it was not good to lie down. He wanted to sit up, but failed.
Shi Xing couldn't help curling up his body with a soft hiss.
Although he had been training for half a year, the high intensity of his daily training meant that there was still not much fat left in Shi Xing's body. When he bent, the shape of his spine was clearly printed through the thin combat uniform. This scene made Chi Yao's hands on his side clench instantly.
"Robot." Chi Yao reminded.
Shi Xing stretched out his hand, and the robot received the behavioral instructions and finally helped Shi Xing up.
After sitting up, everyone could see Shi Xing clearly, his face was covered with sweat and his face was pale.
Er Ya: "He consumed too much energy today."
After sitting up, no longer suspended in the air, his senses returned to their original position, and Shi Xing finally realized what was wrong with him.
He was still absorbing energy.
Dissipating in the air.
He... couldn't stop.
Shi Xing stared at his hands in a daze. In a trance, his talent was activated. He saw that the energy density of his body was much higher than usual. It showed a weird orange-red in his field of vision, which was dazzling and seemed to be a warning of danger.
As if sensing something, Shi Xing was stunned and looked up.
Chi Yao and Er Ya also looked up.
The scene in front of them was suffocating.
The clouds continued to converge in their direction, forming a natural vortex above their heads and extending downward.
Below the center of the vortex was facing Shi Xing.
Of course, the principle behind this had nothing to do with the clouds. It was Shi Xing who absorbed energy, and his talent brought up the wind element, causing the wind on this planet to carry energy to rush to their place, and then converge, resulting in this shocking visual effect.
But that means...
Chi Yao released his perception power before Erya did, and said affirmatively, "The energy above the cloud is accumulating and moving downwards."
Shi Xing was still absorbing energy without distinction.
"Xingxing, you have to stop," Erya said.
"The star beast is dead, you are safe, calm down, concentrate on stopping absorbing energy."
Shi Xing nodded weakly and tried.
A few dozen seconds or minutes passed, Shi Xing closed his eyes again and raised his hands. The energy density in his body was even higher.
He looked up at the sky again. The clouds were also continuously pressing down. Shi Xing felt suffocated for a moment. He clenched his hands for a moment, but his face did not show it, and he spoke.
"You are too close. I am very sensitive to spiritual power now."
"I... need you to step back and leave me some space."
Shi Xing's voice was weak as his throat moved, but he remained firm, "Step back a few hundred meters and don't bother me."
Erya felt something was wrong.
Chi Yao's eyes fell on Shi Xing's hand, and his eyes moved slightly.
Erya immediately rejected it, "No, you can't do it in this state. If you pass out, the remaining energy will cause your spiritual sea to collapse after being absorbed."
Looking at Shi Xing taking a deep breath and closing his eyes again, Erya said: "Someone must ensure that you are awake..."
Before he finished speaking, Chi Yao waved his hand behind him and said, "You step back, I'll protect him."
The mental force brought the wind, and he bent his waist to push everyone back. The force was not strong, but the level of suppression made it impossible to resist.
Shi Xing opened his eyes again and saw Chi Yao.
Shi Xing choked.
His knuckles contracted again and he called out, "Your Highness."
Chi Yao nodded, his eyes fixed on Shi Xing's face, observing him, and said, "They have all retreated. Now you need to concentrate on stopping. I'll accompany you."
The knuckles on the back of Shi Xing's hand turned white because of the force.
"Your Highness, you can't..."
"Hush, concentrate your mental force."
Facing the pair of smoky gray eyes, Shi Xing had the illusion of being seen through.
Gritting his teeth, nodding after a moment, Shi Xing tried.
Once, twice, three times...
Shi Xing's combat uniform was soaked with sweat and stuck tightly to his body.
As the energy was absorbed and the attempts failed, the corners of Shi Xing's eyes turned red. The discomfort in his body increased, and the corners of his eyes turned red.
Taking another deep breath, Shi Xing shook his head, "No, I can't concentrate."
After a pause, he lowered his head and repeated the old words, "Your Highness, your presence disturbs me too much. You are still the same as them..."
"How does it disturb me?"
Chi Yao's question was even a little inhumane.
Shi Xing choked and explained, "Your mental presence is too strong."
"So?"
"It disturbs me and makes it impossible for me to concentrate and stop."
Chi Yao stopped talking. The silence lasted so long that Shi Xing's heart was lifted up and he felt uneasy.
Chi Yao spoke again, but his voice was cold and somewhat unkind, "Look up at me and say it again."
Shi Xing's heart skipped a beat.
"Look up."
Chi Yao insisted.
With his eyelashes trembling slightly, Shi Xing raised his face, his eyes were deep red, and he didn't know when physiological tears overflowed.
But Chi Yao was unusually calm.
The moment he saw the expression of His Highness, Shi Xing was sure that His Highness saw through him.
He... didn't lie to him this time.
Maybe he had been fooled by him too many times, so he had a premonition that some methods could be used once, but not again.
Chi Yao reached out and held Shi Xing's hand in front of him. Shi Xing had no strength, and his palm was turned over easily. Blood oozed from the palm of his hand. It was because Shi Xing kept clenching his fist to stay awake, and his fingernails sank into the flesh.
Chi Yao looked at his hand, breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked straight at him. His smoky grey eyes seemed to be able to see into people's hearts.
"Is it because our presence bothers you, or because you are not sure if you can stop, and want to send everyone away for safety reasons?"
Everyone, including him.
Shi Xing did not speak. He
could not speak.
However, this silence did not last for a few seconds. Feeling something, Shi Xing stared, "Your Highness, please let me go. I am here, here..."
Chi Yao helped him finish the second half of the sentence without changing his expression, "Well, you are absorbing my mental power." Shi
Xing shook his hands frantically, but Chi Yao held Shi Xing like that. With the physical fitness of the imperial people, he could not get rid of it at all.
Chi Yao told the real situation of his current situation, "You can't stop absorbing energy."
Chi Yao's mental power was pouring into Shi Xing's body, and the speed was not slow.
Shi Xing felt it.
He used his other hand to pry open Chi Yao's tightly clasped knuckles, and Shi Xing struggled, "Let go..."
But Chi Yao was unmoved, and even said firmly, "No, stop."
"If you don't want to absorb my spiritual power, just stop it yourself." Unable
to break away from Chi Yao, Shi Xing felt uncomfortable and anxious. In addition, his plan was seen through by the person he loved, and a conflict broke out. Shi Xing's emotions broke down, and he finally admitted it.
"I can't, I really can't."
Rather than saying that he opened up the Ren and Du meridians at a critical moment, it is better to say that he acted entirely on instinct and relying on the sense of seeking life at that time, and he slowed down that breath...
"I couldn't learn this ability from the beginning, and now I don't know how to take it back..."
He tried, but it was useless.
No matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't feel Erya's method.
"Let me go!"
"If you keep going on like this, I will drain your mental power."
If he keeps going on like this... he will kill His Highness.
The Imperials, like the Star Beasts, are also filled with mental power in their bodies. He can feel it now. If he keeps going on like this, he will lose control... Shi Xing shook his head and pushed Chi Yao again in panic. Chi Yao didn't feel much force, but the veins on the back of Shi Xing's hand and forehead showed how hard it was for him.
This scene was not without its effects on Chi Yao.
He wanted to touch Shi Xing's cheek, and his fingers moved slightly, but he held back.
He hardened his heart and said firmly, "I won't let go."
"Two choices."
"Either you calm down and take back your power, or..."
After a pause, Chi Yao said in a very light voice, "Let's do it this way."
Shi Xing didn't understand, "What do you mean by just do it this way?"
Staring deeply at Shi Xing, he leaned closer to his partner. It was clearly an affectionate move, but Chi Yao's words were cruel and realistic.
"Of course, I was drained of my spiritual power by you."
"You can't stop either. After absorbing too much energy, your spiritual sea collapsed."
Shi Xing's pupils shook, "Your body will collapse."
You will die.
Chi Yao was calm, "Well, your spiritual sea will also collapse, the same."
Shi Xing was shocked that Chi Yao could say such words so easily. His chest rose and fell, and his mind was rarely blank.
Chi Yao's tone was calm and detached. "I brought you out of the tree nest. If nothing happened to you, I, the person in charge, would be fine."
"Besides, the Blue Star people who died accidentally in the Empire basically died with their partners."
After a pause, he curled the corners of his lips at Shi Xing, and even smiled a little, jokingly saying, "It's romantic to die together."
Looking at that smile, Shi Xing seemed to be fixed by something, and then trembled uncontrollably .
"No, don't say that!"
Realizing that Chi Yao was not joking, Shi Xing's teeth were trembling.
Finally, an indescribable fear rose in his heart.
Even worse than when facing the mutant monster.
Chi Yao's smile faded, and he once again offered the only option he could offer, "Then take back your power and stop."
Being forced into a desperate situation, knowing that there was no room for negotiation, Shi Xing nodded, tears flowing uncontrollably, and finally followed Chi Yao's voice and said, "I can control it, I can control it."
Seeing that Shi Xing's mind had changed, Chi Yao breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, Doctor Shi, save me."
His voice was even a little gentle.
Shi Xing didn't know how Chi Yao did it.
But he felt the ruthlessness in the other party, and he was also deeply hurt. Shi Xing
shivered and concentrated again. This time, Shi Xing had no distracting thoughts.
The next moment, seeing that the cloud layer was too low, Chi Yao opened the barrier to isolate the energy.
Feeling the other party's spiritual power slipping away again, Shi Xing closed his eyes and stopped struggling in vain. Instead, he took the initiative to hold Chi Yao tightly. After two more unsuccessful attempts, he took the initiative to call Er Ya and asked Er Ya to tell him the method orally.
The communicator failed under the energy vortex, but fortunately, the distance was close, and Er Ya's voice could still be transmitted through spiritual power.
"Take a deep breath and push the energy out."
"Stop absorbing."
"Imagine that you are treating others and try to release spiritual power. This is the opposite process of absorbing spiritual power."
Er Ya shouted, providing references for Shi Xing sentence by sentence.
After several more attempts, Shi Xing was out of power. Chi Yao hugged Shi Xing and accepted the only solution. Shi Xing finally followed his heart and leaned his forehead against Chi Yao for strength.
Difficulties, even talking to himself over and over again, "I can do it, I can do it."
At this time, it was all driven by faith.
Chi Yao felt distressed.
But he was even more cruel.
Following Shi Xing's words, he hinted, "Yes, you can do it."
"You still have to cure me."
This sentence aroused Shi Xing's numb nerves, and he nodded, "Yes, I still have to cure you."
Chi Yao: "Become the strongest doctor in the empire."
Shi Xing smiled, but physiological tears flowed down in pain, and nodded heavily, "Yes, become the strongest doctor in the empire."
Chi Yao rarely has negative emotions about himself, but at this moment, he does not think he is glamorous.
Somewhere in his heart, he thought that he should be despicable to use himself as a bargaining chip.
But if it happens again, he will still do it.
In silence, Chi Yao and Shi Xing clasped their knuckles and separated them. After slightly adjusting the angle, Chi Yao inserted his fingers into Shi Xing's fingers one by one, interlocking their fingers.
The dry palm of Chi Yao conveyed a warmth that made Shi Xing feel at ease.
Thinking about Er Ya's words, Shi Xing thought mechanically in his mind, treatment, treatment...
He will.
He has used it countless times.
He can.
Over and over again, tirelessly.
After trying for an unknown amount of time, the absorption process was slightly stagnant, and Shi Xing finally felt the resistance. He closed his eyes and did not speak, continuing to push his mental power out.
When Chi Yao could sense that the loss of mental power had slowed down, he looked down at Shi Xing.
Shi Xing took a deep breath and continued to fight against his instinct.
Chi Yao took back the hand that was holding Shi Xing. Shi Xing did not resist, but used the force to bury his head and face deeper into his arms.
In extreme pain, the world was empty, and Shi Xing could only feel Chi Yao's presence.
A little bit, and then a little bit...
When Chi Yao's mental power was no longer absorbed by Shi Xing, Chi Yao finally removed the barrier.
As soon as the barrier was opened, the wind seemed to be much calmer.
When the wind was completely still, Shi Xing was about to let go, but Chi Yao held him back, "Don't stop."
"Go on, release your mental power."
"You've absorbed too much, you must throw some out."
The words were tough and Shi Xing's eyebrows were wrinkled together: "But I feel so uncomfortable."
Forcing Shi Xing like this, Chi Yao felt uncomfortable: "I know."
The voice paused and suddenly became very light.
"But I can't stand you getting into an accident, totally, I can't accept it."
As a monarch, Chi Yao always speaks with facts and evidence, and rarely says such idealistic words.
"So, even if it's to satisfy my selfishness, Xingxing, throw out the extra energy."
At the end, his tone was like coaxing and pleading.
Shi Xing's heart was kneaded by something, and it softened.
He put his forehead against Chi Yao's chest again, no matter how bad it looked, and nodded heavily.
As time passed, Erya and Feichu also came over again.
Chi Yao hugged Shi Xing and let Erya feel Shi Xing's spiritual sea.
Erya sensed it and was shocked.
Chi Yao: "Do you need to release more energy?"
Er Ya: "To be on the safe side, it would be better to drain the free spiritual power on the spiritual sea."
What has been absorbed can no longer be used, and what has not been absorbed should be thrown out.
Chi Yao nodded, and Shi Xing also responded sullenly.
Later, it can be felt that Shi Xing is exhausted, and the release of mental power is very subtle, and gradually becomes slow.
But before Erya said yes, even if it was difficult, Shi Xing did not stop.
He was exhausted and could not be exhausted anymore. He was purely relying on his will to hold on.
After a long time, Erya helped him to extract the last of his mental power after confirming that Shi Xing was not in any danger and was not dangerous to others.
"It's okay, stop."
Erya's words fell into Shi Xing's ears, like the sound of nature. After
releasing the strength, he fell on Chi Yao. Even though he was still conscious, Shi Xing did not have any strength at all.
"Medical kit, bring some more wet wipes." Chi Yao said.
Fu Qing responded, listened to the request, and went to the main ship to get things.
With a sigh of relief, Chi Yao unconsciously hugged Shi Xing tightly, with an abnormally tight force. Er
Ya walked a few steps to the side, looking at the cumulus clouds above her head, and had a bad feeling. She asked Fei Chu, "Do you feel that the energy of this planet is turbulent?"
Her mental strength was also severely overdrawn, and she didn't want to use it anymore.
Fei Chu tried, "What you can feel is turbulence."
Er Ya sighed, but knew that she couldn't control the energy dissipated by Shi Xing during the process, so she simply didn't want to bother with it and prepared to go back to see whether to leave the planet immediately or open all the defense barriers.
After all, this amount of energy fluctuations will attract more than one or two star beasts.
Fu Qing is back.
Chi Yao wiped Shi Xing's face carefully with his own hands, wrapped him up with a military blanket, and then stood up holding Shi Xing.
Unconsciously, as soon as he stood up, Chi Yao's body swayed rarely.
Erya was startled, "You..."
Then she saw Chi Yao shaking his head at her, and realizing something, Erya shut up.
Chi Yao carried Shi Xing to the main ship.
Relieved, Erya's body also swayed, simply because she consumed too much energy.
Fei Chu helped her.
Fei Chu suddenly said, "What stupid riddle were you guys talking about just now?"
Fei Chu noticed the sharpness of Chi Yao and Erya.
Erya glanced at Fei Chu and laughed, "You don't want to know."
Chi Yao's mental strength has reached the bottom, and this is what she wanted to say.
But Chi Yao didn't want Shi Xing to feel guilty, so he shook his head at her.
Tsk. Love.
