Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 897 Fall
At the same time, in the Imperial Palace of Xianyang City...

Since the beginning of summer, the weather has been getting hotter day by day.

The weather is too hot, which will affect sleep. That night, Zhou Xu was unable to sleep at all due to the heat.

After rolling over and over for several times, Zhou Xu couldn't help but sit up, walked to the table, poured himself a cup of herbal tea and drank it all in one gulp, only then did he feel a little better.

"Forget it, I won't sleep for now, let's study the mantra!"

The power of the mantra in his body had been almost completely consumed during the mantra research some time ago, and so far, it has been almost half recovered.

I originally wanted to wait until the power of the mantra was fully restored before starting research.

Otherwise, you have just figured out some clues, but the power of the mantra in your body is not enough, and you are forced to stop researching. It is very likely that your clues will be cut off all of a sudden, and this feeling is very bad.

But he was too hot to sleep today, so he just got up and studied the mantra. As long as he got tired of studying, he would fall asleep the moment he touched the pillow.

As the research began, with the continuous consumption of the power of mantra, mental fatigue soon emerged, making him gradually drowsy.

[Almost done. I’ll go to sleep right after I finish analyzing this paragraph.]

He was already feeling very sleepy at this moment, but he had almost finished analyzing the current paragraph, and it would be a bit disappointing to call it a day and go to sleep at this critical moment.

With this idea in mind, I have to wait until this analysis is completed.

[It’s almost there…]

Long before, this part of the analysis was almost completed. With the power of mantra in Zhou Xu's body and his brain working at full speed, the rest of the analysis was quickly completed.

【Done! 】

However, just when Zhou Xu was about to relax and go to sleep, he suddenly discovered that the little remaining power of mantra in his body was spinning faster and faster, as if it had formed some kind of inertia from the long period of high-speed rotation, and it could not be stopped in a short period of time.

Zhou Xu, who relied entirely on his own exploration for cultivation, had never encountered such a situation before.

The unexpected situation was completely beyond his expectations, and he didn't know how to deal with it, or he had no way to deal with it.

Invisibly, his body seemed to have turned into a whirlpool, spinning madly.

Not only did the vortex not gradually stop over time, it even had a tendency to spin faster and faster and continue to expand.

I don’t know if he noticed something strange here, but Xuan Yu, who was sleeping soundly on the shelf next to him, suddenly woke up, and his pair of black and clear eyes fell directly on Zhou Xu.

But Zhou Xu no longer had the energy to pay attention to everything around him. He only felt that the vortex was still expanding madly, and finally swallowed him whole.

At that moment, his brain went blank, followed by a strong feeling of falling. He felt as if his consciousness was falling madly.

Until there was a 'bang' sound, and his body seemed to fall from the air into the water. Along with the sound of surging water, his consciousness sank towards the dim bottom of the water.

It was unknown how long this state lasted. Zhou Xu slowly opened his eyes, and what came into his sight was a pure white world.

He subconsciously supported his body and sat up, only to find that he seemed to be lying on a surface of water.

I don’t know what’s going on, but his body shows no sign of sinking at all. It’s as if an invisible force is holding him up.

The entire surface of the water was incredibly clear, reflecting his appearance clearly. If it weren't for the fact that his every move would cause ripples on the water, he would have suspected that what was lying under his feet was a mirror.

"So, what is my current situation?" Zhou Xu held his forehead with one hand, sorting out the thoughts in his mind.

Unlike before the strange thing happened, when he was tired and drowsy, his mind was now frighteningly clear, as if all his fatigue had been swept away, and he remembered clearly everything that had happened before.

After sorting out all his thoughts, Zhou Xu suddenly had a bold idea.

"Could this be a place similar to the spiritual space?"

After all, he remembered very clearly that he was lying on the bed in the bedroom, waiting for the last part of the mantra to be analyzed before he fell asleep.

In this case, unless there was some means of teleportation, how could he suddenly appear in a place that was completely unfamiliar to him?

Not to mention that this place is clearly not normal.

As Zhou Xu thought about it, he couldn't help but touch the water surface that was as clear as a mirror.

Then he quickly discovered that although he could stand on the water without getting his body wet, his hands could reach under the water if he wanted to.

How else can this situation, which clearly goes against common sense, be explained except in spiritual space?
Just as Zhou Xu was thinking this, he suddenly noticed that the light in this space had changed.

As his thoughts raced, Zhou Xu subconsciously looked up.

At the end of this pure white space, at a position similar to the horizon, a ball of light emitting golden-red light was slowly rising.

"Is this... the sun? Rising?!"

He had no idea whether this situation was normal or not.

While Zhou Xu was muttering to himself, the golden-red ball of light had already risen completely above the horizon, almost dyeing the entire pure white space in front of him with a new color.

Now Zhou Xu had no idea what to do, he could only stare at the ball of light quietly and wait and see what would happen.

During this process, he didn't know if it was his illusion, but the ball of light seemed to be getting closer and closer to him, and it kept getting bigger in his pupils.

Gradually, he seemed to see a figure standing in the ball of light.

But the ball of light was so bright that he couldn't see the other person's appearance at all. He only vaguely felt that the other person seemed to be saying something to him, but he couldn't hear it clearly.

[The Eye of Peeping Secrets! 】

This situation made Zhou Xu instinctively activate the "Eye of Peering into Secrets" to find out what was going on.

As a result, when he took a look, Zhou Xu's entire vision went blank!
When he opened his eyes again, he felt his face was hot and uncomfortable, but everything in front of him was pitch black. There seemed to be something like a feather moving between the wings of his nose...

"Ah, A-choo!!!"

Accompanied by a deafening sneeze, Zhou Xu felt his face lighten, and at the same time his vision suddenly became clear.

A certain rebellious son flapped his wings and flew away at the fastest speed, leaving Zhou Xu sitting on his bed, rubbing his nose with a look of discomfort and madness.

"Fuck! Rebellious son!? Who told you to sleep on my face?!"
