Lin Ruo didn't know how long this feeling lasted, but she found it particularly unbearable. She could tolerate intense pain, but this extreme dizziness and nausea were just too uncomfortable.
In the end, even with her strong constitution, she started to gag. She had just eaten a full meal and was afraid she would actually throw up.
Her incredibly powerful mental energy was quickly depleted at this rate. Before Lin Ruo could recover from the bewildering feeling, intense pain instantly assaulted her entire body. The transition, which lasted less than a second, made Lin Ruo feel as if her breath had been cut off.
It felt like a hand had reached into her brain and was constantly stirring it. Her soul felt like it had been torn apart countless times. This time, she even felt a sense of fear from the depths of her body and a trembling sensation from the depths of her soul, things she had never experienced before.
Lin Ruo's clothes were completely soaked with sweat, and her face was extremely pale, almost transparent. Within minutes, bright red blood began to flow from her nose and the corners of her mouth.
This energy was far too powerful, ultimately exceeding her body's limits. She held her breath and desperately resisted, but as the energy increased, her consciousness became increasingly blurred.
Seemingly unable to support her body any longer, she fell backward and crashed heavily to the ground, after which a trickle of bright red liquid began to flow from her ears.
Silence reigned outside the fortress. A-Liu and the others had sensed a powerful burst of energy, but then it all stopped. The energy vanished. What happened?
Ah Shou and Ah Lu stood in the snow, stamping their feet anxiously. They wanted to know what was wrong with their master inside, but they dared not approach, not because they were afraid of being hurt by Lin Ruo's icy cold, but because they were afraid of disturbing Lin Ruo.
Time ticked by, and the anxious atmosphere outside scorched the mutated plants and animals who were worried about Lin Ruo's condition.
After an unknown amount of time, a burst of powerless energy suddenly rushed outwards, creating a violent gale. The force of the impact even sent A-Lu, who was at the front, flying, followed by A-Fu and A-Shou. If A-Liu and Lao Bai hadn't acted quickly and used branches to wrap around their bodies, binding them tightly, they would probably have been thrown into the mutated forest.
The gale didn't disappear immediately. After A-Liu and Lao Bai put A-Fu and the other two on the ground, they immediately transformed back into their original forms, their massive bodies standing firmly even in the strong wind.
Once they had steadied themselves, they looked at the fortress with some surprise and doubt. The entire fortress was completely enveloped by the invisible force from before, and the surrounding snowflakes were swept up and swirled around the fortress with this invisible energy.
The snowflakes gathered more and more until they completely blocked the view, and the fortress, which was originally tens of meters high, was hidden in the huge snowball.
Afu and Ashou all had solemn expressions on their faces. They were very familiar with that energy; it was Lin Ruo's spiritual power, an energy that was usually extremely docile, but now it was raging so violently. This made them even more worried, fearing that Lin Ruo was in danger.
"Awoo!"
In this tense atmosphere, Alu couldn't help but roar to the sky, letting out the pent-up anger in his chest.
A tiger's roar shook the mountains and forests. All the mutated animals in its territory could hear the emotions contained in that roar. The anxiety within seemed to solidify into a tangible form. They all lay trembling in fear in their hiding places, not daring to move, wondering who had provoked their king.
The domineering Alu was forced to lower its head by a slap from Aliu. Alu sniffed in grievance, knowing it had made a mistake and shouldn't have barked and disturbed its master. So even though its head almost hit the ground, it just shook its big head and acted as if nothing had happened.
Meanwhile, Lin Ruo, inside the fortress, was still unconscious. She was lifted into the air by an invisible energy that kept drilling into her forehead.
Lin Ruo, still unconscious, once again showed a pained expression. These invisible energies were simply too vast; they all wanted to make their home in Lin Ruo's brain, but Lin Ruo's brain was only so big and couldn't contain them.
At the critical moment, Lin Ruo finally regained consciousness amidst the intense pain. She quickly understood the current situation and realized the seriousness of the matter. She hurriedly closed her eyes and manipulated the overflowing spiritual energy. Sensing Lin Ruo's control, the spiritual energy instantly seemed to find its backbone, no longer irritable, and began to become docile.
The overflowing spiritual energy was simply too immense. Lin Ruo had no choice but to continuously compress this energy to prevent herself from exploding. Under her constant compression, this spiritual energy eventually formed a transparent crystal core between her water-type crystal core and space crystal core!
After withdrawing the last bit of spiritual energy into the crystal core, Lin Ruo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This time it was too dangerous. If she hadn't woken up in time, her head would probably have been blown to bits.
Before she could even look at the transparent crystal core in her mind, she suddenly felt a vibration deep within her body. Her eyes immediately lit up; her superpower was finally going to upgrade.
She manipulated her mental energy to extend outwards, and the energy from the surrounding crystal cores immediately rushed towards Lin Ruo, surging wildly into her body.
There were also invisible threads that pierced into the white fruit placed beside it, and a large amount of water-based energy entered Lin Ruo's body along these threads.
So much energy was impacting her at the same time, but having just experienced the mental attack, Lin Ruo was able to control it.
From the outside of the fortress, just as A-Liu and the others saw the invisible energy enveloping the fortress disappear, they saw the familiar ice rapidly spreading outwards.
The fortress was undoubtedly completely sealed by ice, which continued to spread outwards. This time, it even reached the edge of the mutated forest dozens of meters away before stopping. It should be noted that the mutated forest was a full 500 meters away from Lin Ruo's fortress.
Seeing this familiar scene, A-Liu and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although there were some mishaps along the way, they finally got back on track. It seems that their master had succeeded and had begun to upgrade his superpowers.
