This wasn't the first time Xu Yuan had teleported, but it was the first time the teleportation had lasted so long.
Normally, like those times he teleported with Big Ice Lump and the washboard, it was a matter of closing his eyes, and they'd arrive at their destination.
The price of such a prolonged teleportation was that Xu Yuan felt like he was about to split apart,
in the physical sense,
split apart.
His body felt like it had entered the depths of a vast ocean, with chaotic currents from all directions tearing at him.
The immense force now and then pulled in all directions as if trying to tear him limb from limb, and at times converged inward, as if to crush him into pulp.
Under this immense pressure, he could feel his grip on the woman beside him loosening.
From a tight grasp to a gradually weakening slide...
"Snap."
Luckily, the person beside him took his hand and gripped it tightly just as they were about to part.
