But what Li Zhirui did not know was that although Qing Si's injuries did not fundantally harm him, they were not in a good condition.
Even after breaking through to the Earth Immortal Realm, his Spiritual Soul still appeared withered and weak, clearly indicating that the injuries were very severe.
Not to ntion, the injuries were not on the physical body, but on the more important and fragile Spiritual Soul, making the difficulty of treatnt significantly higher.
Moreover, this was not an injury that could heal quickly; it required slow treatnt and recovery.
Therefore, after Qing Si stabilized his Realm and managed his injuries, as long as he did not use too much force, putting too much pressure on the Spiritual Soul, it wouldn't lead to further deterioration, and he ended this closed retreat.
"So you're coming out this quickly?"
Seeing this, Li Zhirui couldn't help but frown and said sternly, "Your injuries haven't healed. Why are you in such a hurry to co out?"
"Jiu, I'm already fine." Qing Si replied stubbornly.
But in his current state, he did not look fine at all.
"You look far from fine in this condition, don't you think?"
Qing Si's pale face and declining aura suggested weakness, looking as if a gust of wind might blow him over. How could he be okay?!
Though he wasn't a dical Cultivator, Li Zhirui, being well-versed in the Tao of Alchemy, had so experience with injuries and quickly determined that Qing Si's injuries were internal, with the root cause lying in the Spiritual Soul!
Thinking of this, Li Zhirui's frown deepened.
Everyone knows that even the slightest injury to the Spiritual Soul can be alarming, let alone such severe injury!
Who knows what went wrong with Qing Si's ntal state that a single Earth Immortal Heart Demon Tribulation left him in such a plight.
If he doesn't resolve the issues in his ntal state, how will he face the Heart Demon Tribulation next ti?!
Li Zhirui wanted to offer so advice, but just as he was about to speak, seeing Qing Si's bloodless face, he couldn't bring himself to say it.
"Jiu..."
Seeing that he was about to argue, Li Zhirui imdiately waved his hand to interrupt, saying, "Don't say anymore. What's most important now is to heal your injuries well. Don't worry about anything else!"
He was aware of why Qing Si ended his retreat early; it was just that he felt it would waste too much ti, delaying his cultivation, leading to such a foolish decision.
"Don't think that your recuperation will delay my cultivation. I have just broken through to Profound Immortal, with little improvent in Cultivation and Realm; it also requires ti to accumulate slowly."
To avoid making him overly worried, Li Zhirui thought such things should be made clear, and imdiately shared what he wanted to say to reassure him, preventing overthinking that might hinder his recovery.
"Jiu, really, I'm fine now!"
Yet, Qing Si remained unwilling to linger in this place, anxious to persuade the other, but unable to think of a good way, pacing back and forth.
Soon, he thought of a perfect plan, where he could heal without affecting Li Zhirui's cultivation due to long stays: "Jiu, I can retreat and heal in your Personal Space, this way it won't delay your cultivation."
That's right!
Li Zhirui suddenly rembered—how could he have forgotten he had a Personal Space!
"If that's the case, then just go directly into the space."
As soon as these words were spoken, the figures of the two disappeared into the Void Chaos.
"Jiu, why did you co in too?"
Qing Si was surprised, thinking he was worried for him, and quickly said, "Jiu, rest assured, I won't joke with my own body—I certainly don't want to stay in the Earth Immortal Realm all my life."
"I followed you in not because of that, but because I thought to help you refine so Pills to treat the Spiritual Soul, to avoid leaving any hidden dangers."
Qing Si was moved, Jiu truly treated him well!
Risking Dao violations initially, and now exerting effort over his injuries.
"Jiu, I will repay you with everything I have if you ever need anything in the future!"
Li Zhirui just waved his hand nonchalantly, saying, "The best way to repay is to recover quickly and join in training in The Void."
Despite his countless years of cultivating, having fostered a Dao Heart that endures solitude, he sotis wished for soone to talk to.
Humans are inherently social beings; this is a nature rooted in the bloodline.
While so can overco nature, Li Zhirui does not wish to—he hopes for companionship on the path to the Great Tao, rather than walking it alone.
...
Speaking of which!
For Li Zhirui, Pill refining is no longer an issue, for whatever Pill Recipe he possesses, he can refine if he has the Spiritual Objects.
Then applying the Purification Principle, he can remove the Pill Poison and impurities, raising the Pill's Grade to top-grade!
This series of operations takes barely any ti.
"These bottles contain Pills to treat and nurture the Spiritual Soul. After taking them, rember which works best for you, so when I enter again, I can refine more accordingly."
Before leaving the space, Li Zhirui specifically reminded him.
"Thank you, Jiu!"
Qing Si nearly lost track of how many tis he had said these four words over just a few days.
