章 1765: The Wondrous Use of the Lotus

As he walked into the dojo, Zhang Ruochen finally noticed that something was off.

He immediately stopped.

"This is..."

All of the plants in the dojo had withered, and the ground was full of dead branches as well as yellow leaves.

Even the huge island, where Xumi Dojo was located, was bereft of vitality. Everything had wilted as if something had sucked all of their life force away.

Zhang Ruochen stared at the huge Buddha statue and observed the withered vines around it. A look of realization suddenly took over his face as he smiled. "So, that's why."

In an instant, he used the Great Dimensional Shift and disappeared.

A moment later, he reappeared in a place that was hundreds of miles away.
