The youth extricated himself from the mud.
Spiritual Energy was like mud, once climbing onto the body, one could feel the viscosity, sticking onto the body as if time itself had stopped.
It was all about compressing and liquefying Spiritual Energy, but through mere touch, one could feel the difference; the bit that just crawled onto his body was already more than all the Spiritual Energy in his body combined. He forcefully flung off that energy, a stark contrast to his previous readiness to die.
His brain was fine, why should he sacrifice his life when reinforcements had arrived.
Especially considering that this boundless Spiritual Energy Lake was just a part left by the Demon Night True Monarch, it was hard to imagine what kind of divine abilities that peak Demon Lord had...
"Pretending deference only after being forward, truly laughable."
