Chapter 1402 - 1398

The Junior Master, who had just stepped half a foot into the crack, was feeling unbearably awkward right now; he really hadn’t expected this crack to be so fragile.

There clearly weren’t any Life-forms around, but the Junior Master still guiltily glanced around.

Then he carefully pulled back that foot he’d just stepped out with.

But what followed was that the Gang Wind of the chaotic currents surged out even more.

Those trees that had been perfectly fine a moment ago were swept by the stronger Gang Wind and turned bald in just a couple of passes.

Junior Master: ...

The bald trees swayed comically, the rustling they made sounding almost like they were complaining.

"You really can’t blame me for this. How was I supposed to know this crack was so fragile it couldn’t even let one of my Spirit Puppets through?"

The flowers, grass, and trees around hadn’t awakened any spiritual wisdom; even if they were stripped bare by the Gang Wind, they didn’t feel any pain.

But the Junior Master still instinctively explained a couple of sentences to those flowers, grass, and trees.

With a sigh, the Junior Master hurriedly took out several pieces of talisman paper and directly slapped them onto the crack that had just shown a tiny fissure.

As long as he patched it fast enough, this crack could forget about shattering right in front of him!

The instant the talisman paper was activated, the force of the chaotic Gang Wind was immediately suppressed by ninety percent.

It was still incomparably sharp, but for the flowers, grass, and trees around that had already gotten used to this level of force, it no longer posed much of a threat.

After dealing with the emergency, the Junior Master finally started carefully examining this crack.

"It’s all my fault for being in such a rush I actually forgot I’m too strong. How could a naturally formed crack like this withstand the power on my body?"

If someone else happened to be here right now and heard the Junior Master’s words, they’d definitely only have one reaction.

Yun Ran really lives up to being taught by this guy; this humble-bragging style is like they were carved from the same mold!

The Junior Master touched his own chin in some distress.

Ah, what am I going to do, it’s all my fault for being ridiculously strong~

Back then, he had spent an enormous amount of effort just to force his Spirit Puppet to tear open a tiny crack and enter this world.

Tearing the space had consumed nearly eighty percent of the Junior Master’s power; with only twenty percent left, he was still regarded as a dangerous element by the Heavenly Dao of this world.

And the result, tsk tsk tsk...

The incomplete Spirit Puppet had nearly been directly torn to shreds by this world’s Heavenly Dao.

If he hadn’t found a suitable Host to lodge in, and if not for Yun Ran’s little wooden soul-nurturing figure, he probably would never have had the chance to reunite with Yun Ran in this lifetime.

Later, it was only by relying on this world’s recognition of Qingfeng Temple’s lineage that he barely stopped being rejected by the Heavenly Dao.

Then, using the materials Yun Ran had collected, he refined a new Puppet body; now the Spirit Puppet’s power had already recovered to its peak period.

To be a bit bold, if the Junior Master wanted to forcibly enter that crack right now—

The next second, the entire passage connecting this world and that world born from the crack in space would shatter completely on the spot.

Unfortunately, the Spirit Puppet could no longer be split; otherwise, the Junior Master really would have liked to weaken his own power right now and force his way into the crack.

The Junior Master had never imagined in his wildest dreams that one day, he’d be unable to personally save his own lifeblood because he was too strong.

Looks like he could only pin his hopes on Gu Yuan now. If he’d known, he would’ve given him another Life-saving Talisman!

Helpless, the Junior Master could only keep calling out Gu Yuan’s name.
