Ren Qing arrived at the entrance of the Rope Knot Cave to find Lin Cheng on the verge of death.
Lin Cheng's skin was covered in large, charred burns. His right arm was missing, and Sun Yishan had severed the tendons in both his legs.
Even though he was less than a hundred meters from the Forbidden Soldier Hall, he lay paralyzed in the acidic water, closing his eyes in despair.
Physical exhaustion was one factor, but the main cause was excessive blood loss.
Although he had relied on his powerful Life Force to barely stop the bleeding, his injuries were simply too severe. The hundred-meter distance seemed like an insurmountable gulf.
Meanwhile, the Prison Guards he had killed not long ago were already in the process of reviving.
It was a clear sign that his Vitality was about to be extinguished.
