Lex's eyes flashed open, feeling an unusual sense of clarity. He felt incredibly refreshed, as if he had just woken up after the perfect night's sleep, but that didn't make sense. He had been expecting that it would take him a whole lot longer to recover after he had been so thoroughly exhausted and overwhelmed, yet here he was, just fine and dandy.
Due to his connection with the system, he knew that within the tavern, only a few hours had passed since he left. That meant that he had taken a little over a day within the Midnight Realm to recover.
Was it because he was merely mentally drained, or was it something else? He wasn't entirely sure.
What Lex remained entirely unaware of was that some of the Dao gas he had absorbed inside his body within Arch-Heaven had been used up. He could not be blamed for his ignorance, because he could not sense it to begin with.
