Yuanyuan said, "Life Authority means 'near-eternal life,' no matter how severely life is exhausted, as long as you rest in time, it will resemble eternal life. Chao Yan burned life too severely and couldn't rest in time. To extend her eternal life, the deity could only place her... in the deep sea."
"Deep sea?"
"Deep sea is opposite to the starry sky, even if Dieying bewilders more humans, humans can never delve into such an ending place as the deep sea. So, Chao Yan sleeping there is absolutely safe. Of course, the water pressure and lack of oxygen in the deep sea make it difficult for her to survive there, so she is now in a... half-dead half-alive state, waiting for the Life Authority to recover, then the deity will bring her out."
Su Ming'an felt very familiar: "...the cat in the box."
This is equivalent to putting Chao Yan in a hibernation capsule, maintaining a half-dead half-alive state. As long as she stays near death, she can hold out until the Life Authority recovers.
