The Grand Elder was overjoyed at the sight. He couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, she's done for. Her body has completely split open. I thought she could last longer? I didn't expect it to be so short."

He only hoped that Bai Ying's body would give way soon and burst open.

Although the elders behind the Grand Elder could not see the scene inside the barrier space, they smiled as they listened to the Grand Elder's words.

"His body is cracked, so he must be dead!"

"Of course, that's a Spirit Gathering Pearl after all. I thought she was so powerful, but she still died here!"

The Grand Elder's face was full of joy. His eyes were fixed on Bai Ying, and he was even beginning to look forward to seeing Bai Ying's body split open.

At that moment, he felt an indescribable sense of comfort.

He was devastated when he learned that his family had completely lost Bai Ying. Now, looking at Bai Ying like this, he can only say that his choice back then was not wrong.

Even if he was wholeheartedly devoted to Bai Ying at that time, wouldn't Bai Ying still die?

Since I'm going to die anyway, I can't be wrong no matter what I do.

The elder's lips curled up in a smirk, his heart filled with malice towards Bai Ying.

But what neither he nor Bai Nishang expected was that just as Bai Ying's body was cracking more and more severely, and was even on the verge of collapse, her body was suddenly enveloped by a soft white light.

Immediately afterwards, an exceptionally terrifying power erupted directly from her body!

Bai Nishang was completely stunned by the scene before her.

"this......"

The power was extremely strong, erupting suddenly from Bai Ying's body, which was enveloped in light. Like an ancient behemoth that had slumbered for ten thousand years, it awakened with a world-destroying aura, instantly stirring up the surrounding air into chaos and emitting a sharp whistling sound.

The ground beneath their feet could no longer bear the weight and began to tremble violently. The solid ground, like fragile paper, crumbled under the impact of this force. Cracks spread rapidly outwards from Bai Ying's center, like a spider web. These cracks, like the gaping maws of a ferocious beast, continued to expand, sending earth and rocks flying wherever they went.

In an instant, a huge beam of light enveloped Bai Ying and shot straight into the sky!

Bai Nishang's eyes were instantly filled with shock. She stood frozen in place as if she had been frozen in place, her gaze fixed on Bai Ying.

Time seemed to freeze at that moment, all the surrounding noise automatically shutting out her. In her world, only the girl surrounded by mysterious power remained. After a long while, she seemed to wake up from a dream, suddenly realizing what had happened.

"Bai Ying actually broke through under such dire circumstances!"

Bai Nishang gasped inwardly, her eyes wide with disbelief. She stared blankly at everything before her.

At this moment, even though Bai Nishang had experienced countless storms and witnessed all kinds of things in the world, she was still deeply shocked by this girl who was only seventeen or eighteen years old.

"She's incredibly brave!"

They dared to gamble everything at the moment when the power of the Spirit Gathering Pearl was at its most violent and uncontrollable, using this power to break through.

You must understand that the power contained in this Spirit Gathering Pearl is so violent that it seems capable of devouring everything. The slightest mistake will be like stepping into an abyss of no return, resulting in instant death by explosion.

But Bai Ying actually dared to use it to break through at this time!

This completely overturned Bai Nishang's understanding.

No wonder Bai Ying was able to cultivate to such a level at such a young age.

Bai Nishang smiled and shook her head, gradually putting her mind at ease.

Looking at Bai Ying was like seeing a younger version of herself.

But Bai Ying is even more ruthless and decisive than she was when she was younger.

Bai Nishang was also a little worried about what Bai Ying should do next.

Although Bai Ying has broken through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, her body has been severely torn due to her stubbornness just now.

Even someone in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm probably couldn't absorb all the power of that Spirit Gathering Pearl.

Bai Nishang frowned slightly.

The Grand Elder was also shocked by Bai Ying's desperate gamble.

He stood there blankly, unable to utter a single word for a moment.

Unexpectedly, Bai Ying's motivation was to break through her limits. However, Bai Ying is still too young.

Did she think that once she broke through, she could subdue the Spirit Gathering Pearl?

She sacrificed her own body in order to achieve this breakthrough.

At this moment, her body was already swaying precariously; even if she broke through, it would be of no use.

The Grand Elder was still thinking mockingly to himself.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Bai Ying's body, which was covered with hideous cracks and was almost broken, began to heal slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

For a moment, both the Grand Elder and Bai Nishang were stunned.

"What?"

The Grand Elder couldn't help but shout it out.

He knew that some medicines or magical artifacts possessed restorative power, but something like Bai Ying, who could actually repair her body under the violent energy of the Spirit Gathering Pearl, was something he had never seen or heard of before!

How powerful must its restorative abilities be!

"How is that possible?"

He had never heard of anything with such powerful restorative abilities!

The Grand Elder stood there, dumbfounded, as if he had lost his soul.

He watched as Bai Ying repaired and healed her body, which had been torn beyond recognition, right in front of him.

—

At this moment, Bai Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She used the jade pendant to completely repair her body.

She felt a faint sense of breakthrough while absorbing the power of the Spirit Gathering Pearl, so she continued absorbing it without hesitation.

Feeling the abundant energy within her body, Bai Ying couldn't help but smile.

This Spirit Gathering Pearl is indeed powerful. She had been trapped in the early Nascent Soul stage for far too long, and no matter what method she used, she could not reach a breakthrough.

But I never expected to break through here.

At this moment, she once again poured all the power of the Spirit Gathering Pearl into her dantian, and then gradually integrated it into her body.

With such a divine artifact as the Jade Pendant for repair, Bai Ying had no fear of exploding and dying due to the overwhelming power of the Spirit Gathering Pearl.

After that, she was in a process of absorbing, bursting, and repairing.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but her Spirit Gathering Pearl finally fused successfully!
