# Chapter 2860: Another Day of Not Being Human~
Jiangnan's eyes suddenly lit up as if he remembered something!
Standing in front of that real-world page, he planted his hands on his hips, a brilliant smile spreading across his face!
(͡°↼͡°)✧ "The reason I can't go back to reality is simple!"
"It must be because I'm still not strong enough!"
"If I were strong enough, screw the resistance? Screw the Final Black Hole? I'd break through in a second and show you!"
Jiangnan is that kind of person. When setbacks hit, he might get discouraged and feel down for a bit—a little emo moment!
But he always bounces back quickly, gets his spirits up again, and tries to solve the problem at hand!
He faces everything with an optimistic attitude!
That's another one of Jiangnan's strengths!
Now, being trapped in the five-dimensional space—to put it bluntly—time has no effect on Jiangnan. As long as the truth permits, he can travel to any point in time!
As long as he can withstand the wear and tear, he can stay in the Life Forbidden Zone as long as he wants!
So Jiangnan has plenty of time now... Well, that's not quite accurate!
Anyway, now that Jiangnan is trapped in the Life Forbidden Zone, the flow of time in the real world doesn't affect him either!
Looking into the future is too risky. Unless absolutely necessary, Jiangnan doesn't want to take that gamble!
There's a safer option: use this time to get stronger in the Life Forbidden Zone, try to break through the resistance, and see if he can force his way back!
That's why Jiangnan's gaze fell on the Sea of Energy!
His current life level is extremely high. He can even absorb four-dimensional energy for cultivation!
So what about five-dimensional energy?
Back when he first came to the Life Forbidden Zone, he never stayed long because just maintaining his existence took everything he had. How could he pay attention to anything else?
And where is the energy of the Life Forbidden Zone?
The vast Sea of Energy right beneath his feet—that's all of it, dammit!
Four-dimensional energy is already pure to the limit. So how amazing would five-dimensional energy be?
The more Jiangnan thought about it, the more feasible it seemed!
So he dove headfirst toward the rippling Sea of Energy below!
(งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง⁼³₌₃ "Watch me, Jiang Kuafu, drink this Sea of Energy dry in seconds!"
But no sooner had he boasted than he felt his Eternal Body was about to collapse before he even got close to the energy sea!
He could even feel the force of wear and tear trying to erode him!
Jiangnan's eyes bulged as he frantically drove the God-Sealing Method. Memories flowed endlessly through his mind—everything he had experienced became his desire!
At that moment, Jiangnan realized a problem!
That force of wear and tear in the Life Forbidden Zone probably came from this Sea of Energy!
This Sea of Energy is not something that living beings are qualified to touch!
If anything could control it, perhaps it would only be the emotionless, impersonal gods, right?
A layer of mist floated above the Sea of Energy. This mist was the energy fog generated by the surging and stirring of the Sea of Energy!
The closer to the surface, the denser the energy fog!
Jiangnan ground his teeth: (ꐦ◣◠◢) "Damn it all! I can't get out, and there's all this energy sitting here—why won't it let me absorb it?"
"I'll absorb it no matter what!"
Rather than gambling on an uncertain future, Jiangnan preferred this approach!
At that moment, he pushed the God-Sealing Method to its limit. His Eternal Heart pounded violently, and even a light of will shone from his body!
He broke through the barrier of energy fog and approached the surface!
Jiangnan didn't dare grab it with his hands!
Instead, he stretched his foot into the Sea of Energy!
But as soon as his foot touched the surface, indescribably terrifying energy directly crushed his foot into nothing!
A shadow of death loomed over Jiangnan!
One more step, and he would die!
That was Jiangnan's instinct!
Even though this body was eternal, it would be annihilated by this Sea of Energy—body, will, everything, leaving nothing behind!
Terrified, Jiangnan quickly withdrew his foot, but it had already been crushed to nothing!
But this disturbance caused a single silver energy droplet to splash up from the Sea of Energy!
Jiangnan's hand shot out like lightning, grabbing the silver droplet!
But the terrifying energy directly crushed his palm, pierced through it, and dragged it back toward the sea!
Jiangnan panicked!
(ꐦ°᷄益°᷅) "It's already in my hand—you think I'll let you get away? Don't you know that I, Jiang Pixiu, only take in and never let out?"
Almost instinctively, Jiangnan shoved his mouth over and slurped up the silver droplet!
He just drank it... just like that!
The Sea of Energy seemed angered. The original balance was broken. The surface churned violently, raising huge waves!
It caused an extremely violent spatial inflation!
This scared Jiangnan half to death. Without a second word, he turned and rushed upward!
If he got caught in those waves, not even ashes would remain!
ﾚ(￢益￢;)ﾍ "Stingy! I only drank one drop of your water—why are you getting so worked up? I ptoo—"
As he spoke, Jiangnan suddenly spat out a jet of energy!
His body swelled like a balloon, ready to explode at any moment!
Even his pores were oozing energy fog. Every orifice was spewing energy!
Even Jiangnan's farts were energy farts now!
(◦꒪ัཀ꒪ั◦) "I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die..."
Jiangnan felt like he was about to explode!
Just one silver droplet—the energy it contained made him feel like it was more than an entire world could hold!
That was how massive it was!
Jiangnan was at the Star Devourer rank. The energy accumulated in his body was already terrifying, but compared to what was in that droplet...
It was like the gap between the Final Black Hole and a tiny speck of dust—not even worth mentioning!
Jiangnan was stunned. How could there be such pure and massive energy in the world?
And that was just a single droplet!
Yet the Life Forbidden Zone contained an entire Sea of Energy!
Even more shocking, this energy seemed to be the origin of all things, the source of the world—pure beyond belief!
It seemed impossible to find energy more advanced or purer than this anywhere else!
It was like the ancestor of all energy!
And this energy had no specific attributes, yet it possessed the characteristics of all energy in existence!
Jiangnan suddenly thought: the Starry Sky World originated from a singularity Big Bang!
That single explosion gave rise to all the matter, energy, and everything in the Starry Sky World!
Imagine how massive that amount of energy must have been!
If there truly was one kind of energy capable of that...
Then the energy in this Sea must be it!
Jiangnan realized a shocking truth!
Holy crap!
The energy from the singularity Big Bang—could it have come from this Sea of Energy?
What the hell is this Life Forbidden Zone?
The origin of the Starry Sky World?
Just what level of place has he stumbled into?
But right now, that's not the point!
The point is, Jiangnan felt like he was about to die—and in the most literal sense!
This single droplet of energy was not easy to absorb!
The force of wear and tear was stronger than ever, trying to wash Jiangnan into absolute whiteness!
And with so much energy, Jiangnan couldn't absorb it all!
His body was about to explode!
But how could Jiangnan admit defeat?
"These are all things I've experienced myself—memories I've created step by step, bit by bit!"
"They are my most precious treasures! Don't think you can wear away anything from me!"
"It's just a single drop of energy!"
"Once it's inside my body, it belongs to me! Submit! Submit, I say!"
Jiangnan roared, constantly spewing energy columns and letting out energy farts!
His Eternal Heart was pushed to the extreme. The God-Sealing Method turned all memories into desire!
He withstood the wear of the energy droplet!
And then, something no one expected happened!
Jiangnan's Eternal Colored-Glaze Body seemed to be impacted by the higher-level energy, undergoing a frenzied evolution, trying to accept, carry, and refine this energy!
Since Jiangnan could survive in the Life Forbidden Zone, it meant he had the potential to accept this energy!
An unprecedented miracle was quietly taking place!
If Jiangnan hadn't brought his physical body in, if he didn't have the Eternal Heart, if he didn't have the evolution of the Life Miracle Seed, if he didn't have the help of the God-Sealing Method...
Jiangnan's only outcome would have been crushed to death by that droplet of energy!
Missing even one element, this miracle could not have been forged!
But now, Jiangnan could!
No one knows how long passed—finally, things calmed down!
Peace was restored within Jiangnan's body!
By now, Jiangnan's consciousness was a bit fuzzy. He shook his head and let out a burp!
A vicious dragon roar came out of him, and an energy cloud shot out with the burp!
With a "pfft," even his energy fart stirred up a wind of energy!
"Phew... did I... absorb it?"
Jiangnan quickly checked himself. Because the entire process of absorbing the energy droplet had left him dazed and fuzzy!
When he looked, he was dumbfounded!
His crushed hands and feet had grown back. His body had returned to normal size!
But there were still changes!
His Eternal Heart was still beating powerfully, but the colored-glaze light it gave off now carried a trace of silver radiance!
And in his colored-glaze body, silver radiance flowed everywhere, becoming part of him!
He took a deep breath of the energy mist!
Another roar erupted inside him. Although it still ached all over, his body seemed to have actively evolved due to the intensity of that energy droplet!
Now it could bear this kind of energy!
But what shocked Jiangnan even more was... his terrifyingly accumulated spiritual energy—all gone?
Not a trace remained!
All the energy in his body had turned into a misty silver-gray energy, glowing with colored-glaze brilliance!
It seemed to be a diluted form of the energy droplet...
Jiangnan was dumbfounded!
Σ(°△°|||) "So... from now on, the energy I drive will be this stuff? A version update—spiritual energy was too outdated and got replaced by this?"
"Sigh~"
