章 1917: Falling Down

Step!

I took one more step, and as I did, I felt like the world was crushing me as I nearly fell to the floor. I did not let that happen and resisted with my all as I kneeled to stabilize myself.

Once I fell on the floor, it would be impossible for me to get up, and I would have to look up for old women to drag me out; it would be a little humiliating as she had warned me about it.

So, as I got the breathing time, I started to circulate the bloodline energy again, as fast as I could. My bloodline energy began to take this energy, and very slowly, like trickling water from the tank, I felt the pressure on me is lessening little by little.

The circulation under this pressure is not easy, but I am doing it as I have no choice but to do it; without it, I would not be able to bear the pressure.

As pressure lessened with my circulations, I slowly began to get up before I was able to stand tall and bring my back leg in front.
