"An incarnation?"
Elder Hao and Master Lan were both taken aback when they heard this, but they immediately recalled something.
When Li Yan had first entered the cave, his aura had been unstable, unlike his normal state. At the time, the two had assumed that, because Li Yan had been anxious to enter the cave passage,
he had flown directly out of the light barrier Elder Hao had deployed before the aftershocks had fully subsided. On his way here, he had likely been struck by the aftershocks from the cave's attack.
As incarnation Li Yan watched the expressions of the two before him change, his "heart" was trembling as well.
His true body was inside Tuban, which had long since become part of the sole of his boot.
That way, as long as this incarnation moved, Li Yan's true body would follow along.
Yet what he was doing was extremely dangerous. If Elder Hao decided to kill him, incarnation Li Yan would have only a slim chance of merging Tuban into the ground.
And that chance existed only if Elder Hao was not enraged enough to turn him into dust with a single strike.
Otherwise, his entire body and clothing would vanish into nothingness, yet a portion beneath the sole of his boot might remain unshattered where it was.
In that case, Elder Hao and Master Lan would naturally notice something strange. It was impossible for his entire body to be destroyed while that tiny piece alone remained.
Moreover, even if incarnation Li Yan managed to merge Tuban into the earth before his final death, he still might not survive.
The chaotic power here was simply too terrifying. Once it spread over, could it grind Tuban to pieces? Li Yan had no confidence in that either.
