Escalating Situation In The Grotto Heaven

Duncan woke two days later…

His head still throbbed with pain. Duncan felt as if someone was driving a nail through his skull. His eyesight was blurred. Even his body was aching all over. Duncan groggily sat up from his position and looked around.

"I am glad that I found a hidden spot to cultivate," Duncan grimaced. "If I was not hidden, I don't know what would have happened to me while I was unconscious. Who knows, a passing by demonic beast would have taken me for a snack."

Duncan didn't know why he felt so tired despite not doing anything for some time. He didn't know how long he had been unconscious. But, he vividly remembered being full of energy when he started his seclusion to deal with the missing soul strand. 

So, it was a surprise to him that he was feeling so tired now.
