Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

Yao Lao knew that with his condition at the time, he could no longer maintain the current situation, so he resolutely decided to abandon his physical body and use his remaining spiritual power to open up a Sumeru space, thereby transferring his own soul and Qin Yi's soul into it.

Because the soul had left the body, Yao Lao's body appeared lifeless. It was precisely because of this that Jin Chi's eyes were deceived, thinking that Yao Lao had already died, and he left satisfied.

This Sumeru space is a unique supernatural power that Yao Lao himself comprehended. It secretly carves out a hidden cave in the vast laws of heaven and earth, thereby providing a place to hide the soul.

This Sumeru space cleverly uses the power of the Heavenly Dao, thereby avoiding reincarnation and eliminating karma. It is a unique place that exists outside the Three Realms. In other words, this Sumeru space is a thief, stealing a section of the Heavenly Dao's power of reincarnation, thereby creating a secluded dwelling independent of the world.

However, this Sumeru space cannot accommodate human bodies at all. Only ethereal souls and primordial spirits can enter. Therefore, when Chen Tian went to investigate Yao Lao's condition just now, Yao Lao took the opportunity to extract Chen Tian's primordial spirit and send it into this unique space located outside the Three Realms and beyond reincarnation.

"Boy, now you should understand how you got in, right?" After explaining everything to Chen Tian, a strange smile suddenly appeared on Yao Lao's face.

After understanding everything, Chen Tian's heart was greatly shocked. He never expected that Yao Lao would pay such a high price to protect Qin Yi's soul! Thinking of this, Chen Tian's expression gradually became serious. He bowed deeply to Yao Lao and said respectfully, "Thank you, Senior, for your great help in saving Yi'er's life. I, Chen, will definitely remember this kindness!"

Chen Tian understood that, just as Yao Lao had said, when Jin Chi was approaching, he had the opportunity to abandon Qin Yi and escape alone. But in fact, Yao Lao did not do this, but chose to stay and continue to treat Qin Yi for Chen Tian.

Whether Yao Lao's actions were out of sincerity or self-interest, for Chen Tian, it was Yao Lao's persistence that prevented Qin Yi from suffering the fate of her soul being scattered. So no matter what, this was a great kindness, worthy of Chen Tian's respectful treatment!

Seeing Chen Tian's serious and respectful appearance at this time, Yao Lao smiled slightly, then nodded lightly and said, "Alright, you don't need to be so polite. All of this was my own choice."

Hearing Yao Lao's words, Chen Tian sighed inwardly. However, at this moment, he seemed to have thought of something again, and his gaze shifted, suddenly looking towards Qin Yi in the distance. After frowning tightly, Chen Tian once again cupped his hands to Yao Lao and said, "By the way, Senior, I wonder what is the current situation of my Yi'er?"

From the explanation just now, Chen Tian had already learned that Qin Yi was currently a wandering soul, but other than that, Chen Tian knew nothing. So he respectfully inquired Yao Lao.

However, after Yao Lao heard Chen Tian's question, the smile on his face suddenly turned gloomy. He also looked at Qin Yi, sighed, and shook his head, "Actually, even if you didn't ask, I was about to explain it to you. According to my original plan, as long as this woman's soul was completely transformed, she would be able to regain her vitality. But unfortunately, just when I was about to perform the final step, that fierce villain suddenly broke in, forcibly interrupting my entire plan."

Speaking of this, Yao Lao's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Chen Tian again, his eyes flickering, "If I'm not mistaken, that villain was coming for you, right?"

It must be said that this Yao Lao is indeed powerful, seeing through everything at a glance.

After hearing this, Chen Tian naturally did not dare to hide anything, and smiled bitterly, "To be honest, Senior, that person did come because of me. I have implicated Senior, and this junior deserves to die."

Chen Tian knew that Jin Chi's ultimate plan was to harm Qin Yi in order to make Chen Tian feel endless pain. After all, Jin Chi knew Chen Tian too well, knowing that only by using this method could he hurt Chen Tian's lifeblood! And Yao Lao can also be said to have been indirectly dragged into the feud between Chen Tian and Jin Chi.

Chen Tian naturally felt very guilty and apologetic about this.

However, to Chen Tian's surprise, Yao Lao not only did not blame him at this time, but said lightly, "Boy, you don't need to feel too guilty. I have already earned it by being able to live for tens of thousands of years, so when I die, it makes no difference to me at all! It's just a pity for this girl."

Speaking of the end, the expression on Yao Lao's face suddenly changed, as if he was extremely distressed, and he looked at Qin Yi beside him.

At this time, Qin Yi was floating in the air, her eyes tightly closed, her face pale, as if she was trapped in endless sleep.

After hearing Yao Lao's words, Chen Tian's heart suddenly tightened, and he immediately asked, "May I ask, Senior, what exactly is wrong with Yi'er?"

Yao Lao could naturally understand the anxiety in Chen Tian's heart. After sighing again, he slowly said, "Let me put it this way, because of the villain's disturbance, I didn't have time to completely condense this woman's soul, so that her current soul is extremely weak. In about half a year, it will disintegrate again. At that time, her seven souls and six spirits will be separated again and will completely dissipate in the heaven and earth! There will be no way to save her."

"How could this be?" Yao Lao's words were like a sharp cone, piercing fiercely into Chen Tian's heart, causing his heartbeat to stop for a moment. After regaining his senses, Chen Tian's eyes showed endless anxiety, and he hurriedly said, "Since that's the case, why doesn't Senior take action again to save Yi'er? You can't just watch Yi'er die, can you?"

Because he was too flustered, Chen Tian's reason began to become confused.

"Boy, don't get excited first. It's not that I don't want to take action, it's just that I... really have no way!" Looking at Chen Tian's anxious appearance, Yao Lao smiled bitterly helplessly, "To be honest, when I opened up this Sumeru space, I had already exhausted all my strength, and in about half an incense stick's time, my primordial spirit will also be annihilated!"

"What?"

Chen Tian was shocked after hearing this, and then he looked at Yao Lao. Before, Chen Tian's mind was all focused on Qin Yi, so he didn't notice anything wrong with Yao Lao, but now, under focused investigation, Chen Tian realized that Yao Lao's soul had already become extremely transparent, as if a gust of wind could blow it out.

Seeing this scene, Chen Tian was stunned. His mind was blank, and he really didn't know what to do next!
