After saying those words, Jiang Ruixiao lingered by Croc Pond for a long time, seemingly ensuring that someone like her, who had lost her Golden Core and cultivation, had no possibility of escaping, before she finally left.
Ye Qiu endured the severe pain in her meridians to heal, even though the space was rich in spiritual energy, the effect was still slow because her meridians couldn't withstand the spiritual energy in her current state.
Moreover, the space had another downside—where she entered is where she had to exit, and without cultivation, she would still likely fall prey to the giant crocodile's bloodthirsty jaws when she went out.
Jiang Ruixiao was truly malicious, deliberately throwing her here to fend for herself. Besides the giant crocodiles, Croc Pond also had deadly poison. In the book's original story, she had disfigured herself here to escape the pursuit of the crocodiles. To ensure foolproof escape, she must recover a certain level of cultivation before leaving.
