The reason she appears so incomplete is because her Origin Soul has been fragmented into pieces.

Xing Yao and the others also had their Star Soul separated, but the correspondence between the Star Soul and the body was far less precise than that between the Origin Soul and the body.

Many Master Realm Origin Soul forms are miniature versions of their own bodies after they have achieved great success in cultivation.

Therefore, once the Origin Soul is severed, it will directly manifest on the body.

The Flower of Evil said, "You, senior, are at least at the Eighth Grade Realm Peak."

Li Yang: "!"

Her heart suddenly clenched; she thought of her teacher.

If Si Kui hadn't returned to Fenglie Main City to find Lianxin back then, would she have ended up like this senior, having countless Spacetime Puppet extracted and dismembered beyond recognition?

Li Yang felt a surge of hatred rising within him, and the murderous intent that had just been suppressed resurfaced.

Lianxin said in a trembling voice, "Fellow Daoist, you... you should help her retrieve some of the Spacetime Puppet; it will help her recover some of her strength."

His words brought Li Yang back to her senses.

The murderous intent was suppressed once again.

Now is not the time to take action.

She had to endure it, condensing her surging hatred into the sharpest blade, to stab that heartless culprit!

"Thank you, Lianlian." Li Yang was even more grateful to have met Lianxin. With him in her Spirit Sea, it was like an oasis in a boundless desert, giving her a place to rest for a while.

Li Yang asked the Flower of Evil, "Find me someone who's in a relatively better state."

There are too many broken Spacetime Puppet, and many of them are in such a state that they are like candles flickering in the wind, unable to withstand any fluctuations.

The Flower of Evil, unusually attentive, examined it carefully for a while and said, "This... should be her true form, but her condition is terrible."

Following his suggestion, Li Yang looked over and saw only a head with lifeless eyes.

She had neat, short hair that reached her ears, long, bright eyes, and slightly thin lips beneath a straight nose.

Li Yang could imagine how dashing and radiant she must have been, but now...

The Flower of Evil added, "Well, it seems her Origin Soul cultivation is going quite well; at least... she's grown limbs again."

Li Yang looked again.

This Spacetime Puppet is indeed in much better condition; even its expression... is not as pale and weak as the others.

However, she also has a disability: she is missing her left hand.

Compared to other Spacetime Puppet, it is already considered complete.

Correspondingly, her Origin Soul is also much more complete.

Although this senior was once at the Eighth Grade Realm Peak, he has now fallen to the Early Eighth Grade.

Her overall abilities are far inferior to Cheng Rui's.

Li Yang used her Divine Sense and whispered, "Senior..."

At this moment, the Spacetime Puppet's expression suddenly changed, and it narrowed its eyes instantly, its eyes filled with deep-seated hatred.

Li Yang: "I'm a student in the Department of the Nature Department!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she released a trace of the aura of the "Sparse Words, Natural Heart Sutra".

With just a faint trace of his presence, this senior was able to pinpoint Li Yang's location.

Li Yang felt her heart pounding with fear.

She was worried that the God King of Time would discover the anomaly here.

But soon, this senior reverted to his original state, reverting to that despairing and empty expression.

"Who are you?" A hoarse, indistinct voice echoed in Li Yang's Spirit Sea.

Cheng Rui's voice was the same. Because their Origin Soul had been severely damaged, their voices, transmitted through the spirit, were so indistinct.

Li Yang briefly introduced herself, and when she mentioned Si Kui's name... the other person's eyes suddenly lit up, but quickly looked down again.

"A-Kui..." she said in a hoarse voice, "My name is Si Yue, I'm your teacher's senior, of course... your teacher always thinks I'm her junior."

Li Yang: "!"

With just one sentence, Li Yang realized that this Aunt Si Yue must have had a very close relationship with her teacher in the past.

She quickly said, "Li Yang greets her aunt!"

"How did you get here? Did the teacher come too? You guys..." Si Yue's voice was muffled and anxious, clearly worried about Li Yang and Si Kui.

Li Yang: "Well... that's a long story..."

Fortunately, communication is done through Divine Sense, and everything can be transmitted instantly.

She told Si Yue everything about how she disguised herself as the Bone Peach Mother Tree, accidentally participated in the Personal Disciple Tournament, met Uncle Cheng Rui, managed to get to the Time Realm Domain, and the series of events that followed.

[Shock Points increased by 2000 points from Si Yue.]

Li Yang: "..."

She felt a mix of emotions.

Although Aunt Si Yue was in very poor condition, she still provided quite a lot of Shock Points.

Li Yang quickly said, "Why don't you try sensing your own Spacetime Puppet too? I'll provide you with Power of Nature!"

After comprehending the Law of Time, Li Yang still had a large amount of Shock Points remaining, so he was no longer lacking in Power of Nature.

If Si Yue can sense enough Spacetime Puppet, it will likely provide her with a large amount of Shock Points.

In Si Yue Power of Nature emanating from Li Yang was already being sensed.

After absorbing this Power of Nature, her condition was noticeably better than before. She paused and said, "The student surpasses the teacher; your teacher is not as good as you."

Li Yang: "..." She didn't dare to reply.

[Shock Points increased by 2000 points from Si Yue.]

[Shock Points increased by 2000 points from Si Yue.]

As expected of Eighth Grade Realm Peak Nature Department cultivator, and a senior who competed with Lady Sunflower for the title of senior sister or junior sister.

She had only just begun to absorb the Power of Nature, yet she had already sensed so many Spacetime Puppet.

Li Yang: "Master, please sense it for now. I'll come back later to help you retrieve the Spacetime Puppet..."

Si Yue: "I have the Law of the Future; I can reclaim them myself."

Li Yang: "!!!"

She quickly replied, "Alright, I'll go check on the other seniors and then come back later to give you the Power of Nature."

Si Yue: "Okay, go ahead."

Li Yang calculated her Shock Points and figured that after checking on the next senior's situation, she would need to stock up on some.

Fortunately, she has more and more seniors who can provide her with Shock Points!

Li Yang went to the southwest corner again. This time she didn't need to pass through the main hall, so she was more relaxed. She quickly passed through and arrived at her destination.

As expected, it was the exact same building, and there were empty meditation rooms everywhere.

Cheng Rui's clue was that it was the tenth room from the left.

Although Li Yang had already seen two cultivation rooms, she still mentally prepared herself again before stepping inside.

Flower of Evil: "This one's alright... Although he's not as good as Cheng Rui, he's much better than Si Yue."

Li Yang also saw the room full of Spacetime Puppet.

This is also a thin man. Perhaps he wasn't always this thin, but the ravages of countless years have turned him into this.

Judging from the condition of these two seniors, Uncle Cheng Rui is actually in a relatively better position among all of them, at least his Origin Soul is intact.

Compared to Si Yue's Origin Soul, this one, although also divided, is not so incomplete that its original body is reduced to just a head.

The Flower of Evil didn't need Li Yang's reminder; it had already found the one in the best condition. "The original body is only half a body... that's not good either. This one, it's just missing a right ear."

Li Yang felt a pang of sorrow in her heart, but she rallied her spirits and walked toward the Spacetime Puppet.

The person in front of me has handsome and dashing features, with round and deep eyes and pupils that are a deep blue like the ocean. He also has a distinctive snake tattoo on the left side of his neck.

At this moment, he stared straight ahead, his eyes filled with the same despair and desolation as Si Yue.

Li Yang released the "Sparse Words, Natural Heart Sutra".

The other party sensed it quickly; his eyes narrowed abruptly, and he locked onto Li Yang's location with the same precision as in Si Yue.

Having already experienced this once, Li Yang quickly offered a reminder.

His voice was also muffled. "You... you are..."

Li Yang introduced herself and also relayed the messages she had given to Si Yue to him again.

[Shock Points from Lan Zhang increased by 2000 points.]

That's the good thing about Brother Shock; he lets Li Yang know his name in advance.

Lan Zhang was stunned for a while before he recovered and said, "So you are... Senior Sister Si Kui's student."

Li Yang understood; this was her teacher's junior fellow student.

Lan Zhang's voice trembled, and although it was extremely indistinct, one could still sense his mix of wanting to know and fearing to know. "Li Yang, Senior Sister Si Kui, she..."

Li Yang quickly replied, "Teacher is very good, but what she brought back from Fenglie Main City was not Ninth Grade Lotus Seed, but a Lianxin with sentience, so she was unable to advance to the Ninth-Grade Supreme..."

Upon hearing this, Lan Zhang's expression softened further.

However, he quickly realized that he was still under the watchful eye of the God King of Time, so he quickly composed himself and continued to act as if he were in despair and defeat as before.

The Flower of Evil pondered, "Your martial uncle... he's probably secretly in love with your teacher, isn't he?"

Li Yang: "?"

What nonsense! She didn't sense anything at all.

This isn't the time to think about that. Li Yang said to Lan Zhang, "Senior, I'll give you the Power of Nature first. Once you've sensed enough Spacetime Puppet, I'll come back and help you retrieve some!"

[Shock Points from Lan Zhang increased by 2000 points.]

Lan Zhang's reaction to this was different from Si Yue's. He said, "As expected of Senior Sister Si Kui's student, you are just as excellent as her."

The Flower of Evil grumbled, "Just as I thought! Just as I thought!"

Li Yang: "..."

What a load of rubbish! What could a flower possibly know?

"Then I'll be going now," Li Yang said to Lan Zhang. "There's another senior in the Palace of History; I'll go see him."
