Xia Ruofei did not expect the spirit body to have such an important role. He gasped and said anxiously, "Martial Uncle Zhao, in that case, Ruofei's recklessness has caused a disaster..."
The senior copper coffin chuckled. "I fought this spirit body several times back in the day. The final battle left both of us severely wounded. I had to rely on this freezing place to keep my injuries in check. The spirit body suffered even worse; its physical body was completely destroyed. Only this corner of the underground palace allowed it to barely prevent its spirit body from dissipating..." He sighed before continuing. "Actually, my injuries recovered quite well over the years, while the spirit body weakened by the day. Given the shift in our strength, it would be as easy as flipping my hand to kill it. The only reason I kept it alive was to balance the freezing energy in this underground palace!"
Xia Ruofei listened intently, remaining silent and letting him speak.
