I breathed a sigh of relief. At this point, the seaweed in front of us was no longer just for adults, but also no longer blocked our view by vines.
Instead, it has somehow transformed into a relatively empty, rocky land.
On the quietest path, there are a few stones embedded here and there. There aren't many individual stones, but when you look at them, they are densely packed together, like a rash on your arm.
This scene was quite unsettling to me.
This is simply not the kind of effect a normal seabed should have.
Or rather, this place clearly looks like it has been abandoned for a long time and is almost covered in moss.
Watching this scene, I felt a heavy weight in my heart.
"Master, why do I feel so uncomfortable in this place!"
Although I can't sense any black energy, this is something even more eerie than black energy itself. This place is much more spacious than before!
The words of Lei Jijian echoed in his mind.
Indeed, as someone with equally keen senses, Lei Jijian should have had a similar feeling long ago.
It was this feeling that made me realize this place was definitely more than just abandoned.
Although this place was much more open than the whirlpool, it was still shrouded in a thin layer of mist.
However, as my horizons broadened, I felt that the pressure around me was indeed slowly increasing.
At that moment, it felt like countless hands were pressing down on my shoulders, and it was very difficult for me to even move them.
I could feel the wristband on my hand; the warm light on it was also slightly hot, but I couldn't feel anything in my legs.
I know there's definitely some much more powerful energy around here!
"We're almost at the border."
The driver spoke without warning, his voice filled with barely concealed fatigue, and his hands gripping the steering wheel were still somewhat pale.
And the spot where this guy had just had his heart removed from his chest now had a tiny crack.
Although there were clothes covering it, I could clearly see that there were indeed some cracks in the heart.
After driving for such a long time, he was starting to sweat a little.
Especially just now, I could see some faint Chinese characters on the gauze he used to wrap his little finger.
Even his entire body, the last tissue he had, was somewhat heavy and drooping downwards.
His face was extremely pale, as if it were covered with a sheet of paper.
Each of his breaths was slightly labored, as if he were very weak.
But I could feel the energy field under the car growing stronger and stronger, and blue light kept shooting upwards through the cracks in the stone ground.
I reckon this driver is using his own body energy to propel the car!
This guy has quietly put in a lot of effort and energy!
I watched as the blue light shone through, illuminating the scattered stones in the box and turning them a pale blue. Even the bumps and jolts we experienced seemed much lighter in this light.
Looking at the driver's back, which was almost dragged down, I felt a sense of awe for his actions.
His recent outburst was probably for this. I'd almost stopped caring about his earlier manic state along the way.
After all, she didn't pose much of a threat to me at the time.
He withstood the energy overload and drove steadily all the way here, almost entirely by sheer willpower.
I think this mindset should absolutely not be criticized.
"Yiyi, keep an eye on things ahead for me."
I whispered to myself, and then quietly took out a piece of sea marrow from my backpack.
This is good. The stuffy heat from above immediately transferred to my hands, giving them a faint glow in the dimly lit carriage.
The brightest it ever was before was when I fired those three golden shots with my small gun barrel, but now, the car hasn't lit up in a long time.
I held this sea marrow in my hand, feeling the vibrant energy within it.
After a brief moment's thought, I gripped the object tightly and approached the driver. In an instant, a faint, pale green light emerged from the cracks in the sea marrow, like tiny stardust, and slowly drifted towards the driver's seat.
However, I didn't control the light too much, because I was afraid it would directly stimulate the driver.
I watched as that faint light slowly seeped into the corner of his clothes, first landing on the spot where his heart was, and then slowly crawling to the spot where his finger had been severed, and finally to the corner of his eye.
The driver, at first, was still driving diligently, completely unaffected by my behavior.
After the lightning sword shouted in my mind, the driver seemed to sense something as well.
"Master, are you going to give the energy on this to...?"
Lei Jijian could see clearly that the sea marrow I took out was the one Boss He had given us before.
But in my opinion, I no longer care what material this thing is made of or what industry it belongs to. I just want to restore the driver's condition.
Although he chose this path in a way, it was also part of his job to lead us to our destination.
But I really couldn't bear to let him continue down this path.
I reckon that given his current condition, it would be very difficult for him to pick up any other passengers. He might even have a long period of inactivity after completing this fare.
How could a driver keep dozing off while driving? Or even involuntarily enter a dormant state, like a flight mode?
I didn't say anything, but the driver seemed to feel the painful power brought by this sea marrow. I looked at the faint green light and knew that this was definitely not the green slime or powder in the shallow layer.
This has absolutely nothing to do with that strange thing; this is genuine sea marrow belonging to the wood element!
As I looked at this scene, I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.
I think it's already pretty good that I was able to help this guy.
On the one hand, I do feel indebted to him, and on the other hand, I still don't know his name. If he were to die for no reason, I would feel guilty.
I can clearly feel that this guy's mental state is getting better and better.
