After the Purple Cauldron absorbed the mysterious little sphere that produced the Blue-Cyan Crystal Stone in the Ice Refining Prince's lair, a mysterious space had opened up inside it.
While reading in the Scripture Pavilion, Ye Han had kept an eye out for explanations of such spaces and ways to use them, but the accounts varied wildly.
After sorting through what he had learned, Ye Han concluded that an unavoidable contradiction stood in the way of using this space.

A cultivator's divine sense sea was a special space of divine sense. For low-level cultivators, it generally only came into being under highly unusual circumstances.
Cultivators at higher levels could open up this space through a series of methods.
But that was already beyond what Ye Han could understand at his cultivation level.
That created a contradiction: Ye Han was the master of this divine sense space, and the Purple Cauldron was inside his divine sense sea.
Meanwhile, the Purple Cauldron's mysterious space was inside the Purple Cauldron itself.
If Ye Han wanted to enter and control that space, he would run into a conflict with space laws.
How could he possibly put his own physical body inside his own divine sense sea? Entering the Purple Cauldron space was even further out of the question. In terms of the laws governing space, it was impossible.
To use that space, he would have to release the Purple Cauldron from his divine sense sea and separate it from his physical body. Only when the Purple Cauldron occupied the same space as him could he use the space inside it.
The problem Ye Han faced now was that he could not
