“I’ll head over immediately.”
Zhou Yuan quickly got up, ready to find Chen Guangxi. But then he thought, considering he was currently disguised as medical staff and on duty at the nurse’s station, would he be punished for leaving his post?
Being cautious, he looked around the corridor and spotted the doctor who had greeted him earlier walking this way, seemingly having just returned from the bathroom. Zhou Yuan had an idea and called out, “I need to take a dump. Can you cover my shift for a bit?”
“Sure.” The other person agreed readily.
Once the person had seated themselves at the nurse’s station, Zhou Yuan hurriedly left and took the stairs to the 6th floor where Chen Guangxi’s room was located.
Standing at the room’s entrance, Zhou Yuan pressed his thumb onto the fingerprint lock. With a click, the lock opened.
“It seems obtaining the doctor’s identity automatically registers my fingerprint for all the room locks…”
Zhou Yuan pushed the door open and entered. On the bed, Chen Guangxi had already broken free from the restraints. She looked pale, visibly exhausted, and her once golden hair had lost its luster, dry and split, resembling a wilted flower.
Her condition was very poor.
“You…” Chen Guangxi blinked at Zhou Yuan’s attire in surprise.
“Just got hold of this lab coat.”
Zhou Yuan then shared all the intelligence he had gathered with Chen Guangxi.
“You moved so fast?” Chen Guangxi was a bit stunned. In just half a day, Zhou Yuan had not only uncovered the true nature of the psychiatric hospital but had also collected anti-pollution drugs and acquired a doctor’s identity. His speed was unbelievable.
Sighing helplessly, Chen Guangxi covered her face. She really had shot herself in the foot this time by creating such a perilous persona for herself.
“You really traveled to a bizarre cultivation world?” Zhou Yuan sat by the bed, curious.
“Yes, it felt completely real. I couldn’t find any flaws. Not only were the injuries real, but even objects from that world could be brought back…”
Chen Guangxi slightly lifted her hospital gown, revealing a dark wound on her abdomen, with twisted flesh. The venomous attack had dyed the surrounding blood vessels a dark color, making the wound look gruesome.
However, her strong constitution was quickly healing the wound, and the dark color was rapidly fading.
She then pulled out a circular jade pendant from her chest. Its texture was as fine as jade, clearly of superior quality: “That world is filled with various eerie creatures, all carrying spiritual pollution. This jade pendant can resist the pollution.”
[Name: Earth Spirit Jade Pendant]
[Quality: Rare]
[Special Effect: Protects sanity, resists demonic influence.]
[Remarks: In that eerie cultivation world, this miraculous jade, sourced from underground veins, is essential for resisting demonic creatures. The jade vein self-regenerates every ten years, providing an inexhaustible supply.]
It was actually of rare quality… Zhou Yuan remained expressionless on the surface, though internally he was astonished.
“And this.”

Chen Guangxi then took out a thumb-sized piece of flesh-colored fragment from her pocket, containing rich life-force.
[Name: Taishui Flesh]
[Quality: Perfect]
[Special Effect: Long-term consumption enhances physical functions, prolongs life. It has strong reproductive abilities, requiring only regular watering to grow.]
[Remarks: Formed from the body of a great power, it’s rich and fragrant, but tasteless.]
Damn, perfect quality? Zhou Yuan was completely shocked.
“This is called Taishui Flesh, a rare treasure in that world. It can strengthen the body and continually reproduce with just watering. I secretly kept a bit, and I didn’t expect it could actually be brought back.
Also… I obtained some cultivation techniques and my cultivation didn’t disappear.”
Chen Guangxi tiredly rubbed her face and softly said, “Honestly, I’m starting to have trouble distinguishing between the two worlds.”
“Having your first episode be this severe…”
Zhou Yuan raised an eyebrow gravely. “It might be related to your strong spirituality. If it were an ordinary person, hallucinations wouldn’t so easily become reality.”
“How did you get injured?”
Chen Guangxi recalled, “I was with Master Cinian in a place called Five Elements City. Demonic creatures were causing havoc there, so we took a job to exterminate them for some silver.
I was quite strong in that world, and it didn’t take long for me to kill all the creatures in the mountain. But unexpectedly, there was a powerful demon hidden, and it ambushed me.
Although I killed it with one punch, its claws had strong venom. I barely made it back to Five Elements City before passing out, and then I woke up back here.
Well… time flows differently in the two worlds. I spent at least half a month there, while only half a day passed here.
Do you have any food? You wouldn’t believe the stuff I ate over there. It wasn’t fit for a dragon!”
Zhou Yuan took out the remaining compressed biscuits from his backpack and handed them all to Chen Guangxi.
He watched thoughtfully as Chen Guangxi tore open the packages and devoured the food ravenously. Her words just now had given him some ideas.
When he first used Eyes of Identification on the psychiatric hospital, the remarks were: [A private psychiatric hospital. Expensive fees but top-tier service. However, everyone here is mentally ill.]
— everyone here is mentally ill.
Zhou Yuan had already experienced this; everyone, whether patient or doctor, had gone completely mad under the hospital’s influence. Although he hadn’t encountered any security guards yet, he imagined they’d be no exception.
But right now, there was a non-human entity—if Chen Guangxi reverted to her original form, could she escape the hospital’s influence on her?
