After completing all this, Li Yan deliberately stirred up relentless spatial turbulence during his final battle with a monster spirit. Outsiders could not look directly into it, and even divine sense could not approach.
He wanted that entire area thrown into chaos. Then, the instant he killed the monster spirit, an avatar appeared, while his true body immediately used a concealment technique and slipped into the void.
Once the aftershocks of that battle faded, the avatar wore an angry expression and could only leave the glacial canyon in bitter frustration...

One purpose of such a tactic was, of course, to help conceal the Polar Ice Heart's true body.

This was an inherent function of the
