Ling Jin smiled slightly, with a hint of apology and helplessness in his tone: "Master, I just felt suffocated in the room, so I came out to get some fresh air. I'm really sorry to have made you worry."

Upon hearing this, Master Yunxi sighed softly, his eyes filled with love. "You are too sensible, child. Your health is the capital of revolution, so you can't be careless. Come on, I'll take you back to your room so you can have a good rest."

Ling Jin nodded slightly, accepting Master Yunxi's kindness. He understood that this nun, though usually taciturn, harbored genuine concern and love for him. Otherwise, she wouldn't have interrupted her retreat just because he fell into a coma, gone out to search for elixirs for him, and only returned today.

He followed Master Yunxi's footsteps and boarded Master Yunxi's flying vehicle, the Cloud Rabbit, together. He said, "I'm truly sorry to have troubled you, Master-aunt, during this period of time."

Master Yunxi shook his head gently, his eyes full of kindness: "As long as you are okay, nothing else matters. As long as you are healthy, that is better than anything else."

As they spoke, the two had already arrived at Yunqing Peak. 'Cloud Rabbit' stopped, turned to look at Ling Jin, and said softly, "Let's go."

Ling Jin nodded and followed Master Yunxi up and down the Cloud Rabbit. Suddenly, he felt something gently touch him. Looking down, he saw an exquisite storage bag resting quietly in his arms. Master Yunxi turned and said to Ling Jin in a gentle and caring tone, "That bag contains elixirs for restoring your spirit. You must remember to take them regularly. They are crucial to your recovery."

Ling Jin quickly refused. "No, Master, this is too expensive."

Master Yunxi smiled gently, his tone filled with a touch of kindness and determination: "Silly child, why are you being so polite to Master? These pills may be precious, but you are more important. Be obedient and accept them."

"Master, no, I can't take your things."

Ling Jin's attitude was firm, but Master Yunxi didn't change her mind. She gently took Ling Jin's hand and gently placed the storage bag in his palm, her eyes full of love. "Ah Jin, be obedient. Master knows you are a sensible child, but you cannot refuse a gift from an elder."

Ling Jin felt the warmth of Yunxi Zhenren's palm, and the corners of his mouth naturally curled up, his eyes gentle. He looked at Yunxi Zhenren's loving eyes, and finally sighed helplessly and compromised: "Okay, Master, then I will accept it."

Seeing Ling Jin finally accept the storage bag, Master Yunxi smiled with satisfaction. She patted Ling Jin's shoulder and said softly, "That's right, Jin. Rest well. When Master Nun comes out of seclusion next time, I hope to see you full of energy."

Ling Jin nodded seriously: "When Master comes out of seclusion, I will let her see a stronger and more mature me."

Upon hearing this, Master Yunxi's eyes flashed with satisfaction and relief. She patted Ling Jin's shoulder again, then turned around and walked away slowly with light steps.

Ling Jin watched Yun Xi Zhenren's figure gradually fade away, until he finally transformed into a streak of green light and disappeared into the sky. Then he turned and walked towards his own residence.

After returning to the cave, Ling Jin first sat quietly in the room for a while to regulate his breathing and relax his mind.

But as soon as he closed his eyes, the tragic scenes in his dream came flooding back like a tide, making it impossible for him to calm down.

At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door. Ling Jin suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the door warily. He saw the door being gently pushed open, and Ling Chao's figure came into view.

Ling Chao saw Ling Jin looking at him, and a happy smile appeared on his face: "Brother, you are up? How are you feeling?"

Ling Jin smiled softly, indicating he was fine. Ling Chao felt a small sense of relief upon seeing this. He walked over to Ling Jin, sat down, and asked, "Brother, I've prepared some medicinal food for you. Would you like to eat it now or later? I went to the Spirit Beast Garden and found a Level 6 Phoenix Chicken. I added purple-blood ginseng and red spirit grass to make chicken soup. It will be very beneficial to your recovery." Ling Chao's eyes were filled with concern, and his tone was filled with a hint of anticipation.

Ling Jin's eyes lit up when he heard this. He gently touched Ling Chao's head and said with a smile, "A Chao, you're so thoughtful. Put it down first. I'll eat it later. You sit down for a while and talk to me."

Ling Chao nodded obediently, "Okay then."

Then he changed his seat and sat next to Ling Jin. He asked with concern, "Brother, you were unconscious this time, and I was really scared. What happened? Did someone trip you up in the secret realm? Tell me, and I will seek justice for you!"

Ling Jin shook his head slightly, his eyes becoming deep. "No? Who told you that?"

Ling Chao was slightly stunned when he heard this, then scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, "Hehe, it was just a wild guess. I saw you were unconscious and I was worried, so I made a random guess."

Ling Jin looked at Ling Chao's naive appearance and knew that this was definitely not the case, but he did not expose her. Instead, he said softly, "Don't let your imagination run wild like this again in the future."

Ling Chao stuck out his tongue, chuckled, and then said seriously: "I see. But what happened to senior brother? Why did he suddenly fall into a coma? And is it true that Third Uncle said that senior brother has an 'inner demon'?" Ling Chao's eyes were full of concern and anxiety. He really wanted to know what his senior brother had experienced.

Ling Jin sighed softly, his eyes becoming gentle and profound. He spoke slowly, "Ah Chao, some things are hard to explain in a few words. But don't worry, I'm fine. As for the 'inner demon' thing, that's absolutely impossible. I simply fell into an illusion while training in the secret realm and couldn't extricate myself for a while."

Ling Chao's expression turned serious upon hearing this: "Dream? Could it be that someone used an illusion on Brother?"

Ling Jin: "Not really."

Ling Chao's brows relaxed slightly, but then furrowed again. "Then why did Senior Brother fall into this illusion? And why is he so unable to extricate himself?"

Ling Jin: "Maybe it's fate?"

A hint of doubt flashed across Ling Chao's eyes, but more of it was concern and worry for his senior brother. "Opportunity? How could there be such a painful opportunity?" he asked softly, his tone filled with disdain.

Ling Jin looked at Ling Chao's concerned face, smiled gently, and said, "A Chao, you don't have to worry too much. Although this illusion did make me go through some hardships, it also brought me some unexpected gains. Perhaps this really is an opportunity."
