Han Sen was feeling far too hungry . His body was incredibly tired, and he knew he should have been resting, but he was overwhelmed with a strange ravenousness .
He knew such behavior was dangerous . Heresy Mantra was able to hasten his recovery, but he knew the power to do so couldn't just come from anywhere .
If he wanted to recover and get back in tip-top shape, he had to have power .
He was currently not supposed to have any . Curse of Immortality was sure to damage him further, by making him so active in such a weakened condition .
Han Sen kept on scoffing down sacred-blood flesh . He couldn't get enough of the stuff, and he thought each and every fatty, red morsel was better than the highest-class nutritious solution .
After another hefty slab of meat, the hunger of his crying stomach did not relent . The energy inside was not able to keep up with his heart .
But as hungry as he was, his stomach was full . His belly had inflated like a balloon, and there was no room left for food .
His heart was good but his stomach wasn't; there was no way he could eat any more . And even if he was in fine health, he couldn't come anywhere close to eating as much as he just had .

Han Sen was sitting on the floor like a pregnant woman, with his appetite still fierce .
His stomach was stuffed, and yet, he was still so hungry . It was an annoying conundrum to deal with, as two contradicting pains collided .
If Han Sen wasn't as strong a person as he was, he'd undoubtedly be screaming .
His face was all pale, and a ghastly sweat had started to form . His clothes were all soon drenched in this sweat .
Hungry . Hungry . Hungry .
Han Sen placed his hands on his belly and tried to suppress it and fight back against its calling for more food .
Jade-Sun Force could barely provide him with energy . If he wanted to get it started, to put him in better shape, he'd need nutrition . Just like if there was no oil, there was no way to refine gas . Unfortunately for him, Han Sen was too full right now . Even a single pea or grain of corn would be enough to tip him over the edge .
"I should have learned a hyper geno art to improve the fortitude of my stomach," Han Sen said to himself, remorsefully realizing it was now too late for that .

When he crossed Ghost Mountain, the big white snake gave him a Dragon Saliva . It was a super-class geno treasure . If he drank it, he'd most assuredly be energized .
But Han Sen didn't want to use it in such a condition . He was fighting back against the use of something that might save his life .
Han Sen's body was beginning to shrivel now . The fat was burning at a hastened rate, and he was immediately appearing much slimmer .
"Heresy Mantra should be practiced by women; it sure helps you lose weight . " Han Sen remained light-hearted, despite his predicament .
While Han Sen contested with whether or not he should eat the Dragon Saliva, the crystallized organs inside him started to feel relieved .
Han Sen was shocked when he noticed this . He found that the crystals inside him had been detached from his organs into a slimy, fatty state; and now, they were being absorbed .
Han Sen was afraid the crystals would change his body, which was why he had not tried absorbing them . But now it was happening whether he wanted it to or not .
He noticed the refined crystals did not blend into his body . They were instead burned like fat, providing energy to his heart .

The heart pounded inside his chest like the chugging of machinery as it worked hard to refine materials . And as this occurred, his stomach began to feel lighter . The hunger he was feeling began to subside .
As Han Sen digested these crystals inside, the media was having a field day back in the Alliance . They were ecstatic over the fact Dollar had managed to kill two king spirits and make three royal spirits obey him .
The Alliance did not typically talk about the Third God's Sanctuary, and all subjects of its discussion were usually banned .
But this time, they allowed talk of it . Regarding this event, people were given permission to speak and report freely over Dollar's accomplishments .
Dollar's name was on the tip of everyone's tongue once more . He was the talk of the town, as everyone idolized and theorized how powerful he must have been .
The surpassers, who had a better understanding of the power Dollar must have had to defeat his foes in the way he had, thought it was a miracle .
It was difficult to carve out a living in the Third God's Sanctuary, and more often than not, luck was the deciding factor over whether or not you'd end up a slave to a spirit all your time there .
What Dollar had managed to achieve was something no other human believed possible . He had now become a superstar .
Some people began to whisper suspicions, though .
Humans who lived in spirit shelters heard talk about a spirit known as The King, and while Divinity's Bout was on, they often heard spirits refer to Dollar as The King . They were one and the same . They were saying Dollar was actually a spirit .
But such talk was not given the time of day and was quickly hushed by the authorities . Dollar was in the Third God's Sanctuary, and he was able to use beast souls .
Not many people knew about the connection between Dollar and The King, so there was no big fuss made of it . The validity of their claims could not be verified, after all .
The spirits in the shelter were ravenously discussing The King's victories, too . They believed he would one day become an extremely powerful emperor .
He was the first human to ever make spirits feel this way .
Humans and spirits were hoping to catch a glimpse of Dollar or The King the next day .
But much to their surprise, Han Sen did not show up .
They all then discussed the reasons why he might not have continued his participation in the competition, but none believed it to be fear . Aside from a king spirit with eight gene locks, the remainder of his opponents were to be royal spirits . There did not seem to be a comprehensible reason why he would not show up .
