When Yanyan woke up, he immediately sensed that something was wrong. He had been struck—no, he had been struck by a primordial spirit just like his own. He was not completely without a clue; in fact, he had woken up long ago, but because he still needed to refine the power within the seal and could not move, he merely looked as though he were heavily injured and unconscious.
This was not the first time his primordial spirit had reached this realm. The last time he was conscious here, he was entirely alone, with no other primordial spirits present—at least, he had never discovered that Li Dai had been here and vanished again. This time, an extra primordial spirit had appeared, crashing into him and interrupting his refinement, forcing him to snap back to full consciousness. If that person harbored any malicious intent toward him, he needed to be prepared to fight back at least.
Oddly enough, ever since Yanyan had first beheld the distant, towering statue of the man within the dilapidated palace at the Divine Debris Grounds, he had obtained the sealed power within it, along with a foundational cultivation technique called the *Great Dao Sutra*. Every single step of its content relied on the comprehension of the Dao for cultivation. Simply by receiving that portion of the sealed power, he felt an ineffable, profound bond linking him to the man depicted in the statue. As for what kind of bond it was, he was still far too weak to perceive it.
