In reality, once Wang Yan learned he lacked the qualifications to clear the eighth level and inherit the legacy of the Nine Heavens Profound Mansion, he had essentially fallen into despair.
Leaving the underwater vortex Secret Realm meant being reduced to prey or merchandise for the native cultivators. Yet, staying behind meant being trapped there forever, until his lifespan ran out and he perished. He never would have imagined that when he was utterly hopeless, heaven would send Lin Fei, a great savior, right to his side. Initially, he had only felt that Lin Fei’s arrival helped him strengthen his physical body, allowing him to escape the dead end of the fifth level. Now, learning that this guy actually had the potential to crack the Heavenly Dao seal against ascenders in the Mountain and Sea Realm was another massive, joyful surprise.
If he could help Lin Fei obtain the recognition and legacy of the Nine Heavens Profound Mansion with all his might, then having a brother-in-arms become the master of the Mysterious Realm would mean a complete escape from his predicament! For Wang Yan, Lin Fei’s appearance was a miraculous deliverance from the jaws of death.
