“Am I not talking to you? Isn’t it because you’ve never entered the Jade s.p.a.ce and never thought of me?” Elder Jiao looked at Lin Yi with a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes.


Lin Yi didn’t know what to say-it did seem to be the case after thinking about it. He’d never thought of elder Jiao since he’d returned from the ancient martial world, and he’d been uncontactable the whole time-he’d gotten used to it.


Elder Jiao didn’t mind-he’d gotten used to being alone before Lin Yi opened the Jade s.p.a.ce, and he was just joking.

!!

“Speaking of which, your rate of growth has far exceeded my expectations. In the past, I could still give you some help and advice, but now, there is really nothing I can give you. So, there is no need for me to say anything when you return to the secular world.” Elder Jiao smiled and pointed at Lin Yi’s forehead with a straight face,”But you’ve really disappointed me this time!”


“Elder Jiao, what do you mean?” Lin Yi asked.


“What do you mean? You still have the nerve to ask me what I mean! Don’t tell me you don’t even realize your own condition?” Elder Jiao didn’t hold back at all. He wasn’t even this strict when Lin Yi was still a weak rookie.


Lin Yi frowned-elder Jiao wasn’t trying to scare him, so he sent his spirit sense out of the Jade s.p.a.ce to figure out what was going on.


However, Lin Yi’s spirit sense couldn’t leave the Jade s.p.a.ce at all. It could only wander in this world. To put it bluntly, he had lost all contact with the outside world!


“Elder Jiao, how did this happen? How long have I been unconscious?” Lin Yi knew that the situation was serious, but he still maintained his calm.


Elder Jiao only hmphed in response to Lin Yi’s question. He replied faintly,”Your strength has surpa.s.sed this spatial plane. I can’t understand it, so how can I know what happened to you? However, I can tell you that you’ve been unconscious for ten whole days!”


Lin Yi took in a deep breath-he thought he’d only been unconscious for two hours at most, but it’d been ten days!


One had to know that Lin Yi himself was a Yuan spirit, and now that his Yuan spirit was in the Jade s.p.a.ce, didn’t that mean that the yuan spirit in the mortal world had completely disappeared?


“Elder Jiao, no matter how strong I am, I’m still a junior in front of you. Can we talk nicely?” he said. Lin Yi said with a bitter smile. Only elder Jiao could help him figure out the situation.


Elder Jiao suddenly smiled and yelled,”Do you think I’m angry with you? How was that possible? I’m just expressing my disappointment to you! You don’t know how to cherish yourself, do you? This time, your soul was almost destroyed, you know? If it wasn’t for the fact that you’ve eaten a spiritual fruit and still have a part of it that hasn’t been refined, you would’ve been finished! You still dare to do this after your primordial spirit has left your body? do you really think you’re invincible?”


Lin Yi was a little dazed. He felt a little scared after hearing elder Jiao’s words. He really did almost die, and it was all thanks to the spirit sense fruit that he had saved his last chance.


It was probably because everything had gone too smoothly before-Lin Yi was basically invincible as a Yuan spirit, except for the short period of time when he just came back. He forgot that a Yuan spirit was actually very weak, and the damage it took was ten times or even a hundred times that of the physical body. It was already not easy for him to still be alive.


“Elder Jiao, I know I was wrong. I was too careless this time. What’s my situation now? How do I leave the Jade s.p.a.ce?” Lin Yi admitted his mistake obediently. Elder Jiao was his teacher and friend, after all, and Lin Yi didn’t feel like a master in front of him at all. He was more like a junior.


Elder Jiao snorted-he’d probably let out all his pent-up frustration after the phone call just now, and that was because he was worried about Lin Yi. He wouldn’t care if it were someone else!


“You want to escape after listening to my nagging? I’m telling you, it’s not that easy!” Elder Jiao mumbled to himself after calming down a lot, then said seriously, “You’re quite lucky, kid. Originally, your soul would have completely collapsed after you lost consciousness, but the remaining spirit fruits protected the source of your soul. The Jade s.p.a.ce also pulled you in with all its might, so you didn’t die immediately,”


“Has my primordial spirit body already dissipated?” Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat. This was the news he was most concerned about and the one he didn’t want to hear the most. The strength of Lin Yi’s spirit in the Jade s.p.a.ce wasn’t even six to seven percent of his peak strength. Even if he left the Jade s.p.a.ce, his Spirit’s strength would be greatly reduced.


But elder Jiao did give him some good news.”No, your soul is still in the outside world. I have to say that your luck is truly heaven-defying. Aside from spirit sense fruits, you can also use spirit sense gra.s.s to refine your soul. Adding on the fact that you’ve always had a perfect breakthrough, your soul is far stronger than those of the same rank. Your soul is almost as condensed as a cultivator’s body. When you lost consciousness, at least you left your soul in the outside world,”


Lin Yi let out a breath of relief. As long as the yuan spirit was still there, his strength wouldn’t drop that much. More importantly, with the yuan spirit outside, he would only faint, not disappear. At least the people outside could have some comfort. If Lin Yi disappeared all of a sudden, sun Jingyi, Xu s.h.i.+han, and the others would probably go crazy.


“Elder Jiao, what should I do now? Can you let me communicate with the primordial spirit outside?” Lin Yi tried again, but he still couldn’t connect to the outside world. He asked elder Jiao for advice.


Elder Jiao shrugged helplessly,”I can’t do anything about it. You can only settle this matter yourself. He had to cultivate quickly and properly. Perhaps he would have the chance to find a way to contact the outside world’s primordial spirit. Don’t be lazy!”


Lin Yi didn’t know what to say-it seemed like he really couldn’t count on elder Jiao anymore. He’d have to recover his spirit as soon as possible if he wanted to get out.


It was a pity that the spiritual Qi in the Jade s.p.a.ce was abundant, but it didn’t help with the cultivation of the spirit at all. Lin Yi’s essence spirit was only about six percent of its peak strength, and this was after he digested the spiritual fruit. With this kind of strength, he couldn’t even use spiritual fruits or spiritual roots.
