Ding... Dingling...
In a daze, Zhao Douan opened his eyes and found himself away from the Imperial Palace, reappearing within the Martial God Map once again.
At this moment, the sky was faintly brightening, with stars strewn across the night sky.
He found himself lying on the back of a donkey.
Beside him, there was traveling luggage, and as he looked forward, he saw the Great Yu Grand Ancestor, tall and with unkempt hair, walking ahead.
He was no longer wearing the thick felted cotton coat but instead, a single layer of clothing with a green gourd hanging from his waist.
"Phew, I'm in here again... At least I can avoid the awkwardness of having eunuchs apply medicine..."
Zhao Douan sighed with relief, feeling all the pain in his body had vanished.
Not surprising, since this was a "contemplative" state, the pain from the outside world was isolated here.
