Letting out a sigh in his head, Di Tou shook his head slightly before enjoying the break, taking his time eating the nuts to give the girl some more time to rest. After maybe a quarter of an hour had passed, Di Tou noticed her breath had stabilised. Dusting his hands off, Di Tou returned his extra items to his Spacial Ring before taking out a bag of water and taking a sip, and offering another bag to Qing Xin, who accepted it this time.
After their brief break, they continued their trek up the mountain with renewed enthusiasm and energy. The higher they walked, the brighter the surroundings seemed to be. Di Tou turned around and was prepared to ask Qing Xin what was going on, but seeing her tense expression and rapid breaths, he realised the girl was going through something of her own and simply stretched out his Spiritual Sense a bit further so he had a clear sense of his surroundings despite the light surrounding them making it harder and harder to see.
