Monk Shi Jie noticed the thoughts of the two of them and sighed,
"This is a situation of life hanging by a thread. If you're hoping for perfect safety, that is out of the question. Based on this monk's speculation, the best outcome would be that Benefactor Gu, being of a True Spirit Bloodline, survives within the True Spirit Karma Fire, while Benefactor Li's physical body cannot withstand the burning of the Karmic Fire, manages to stay out of the magic formation, and retrieves her Soul, becoming a ghost again. This would already be a blessing from the Buddha!"
Upon hearing this, the two fell silent together. Monk Shi Jie was right; surviving the clutches of a cultivator at the Refining Void Stage was already a great fortune. Why would they even dream of more?
After pondering for a while, Gu Shi Yi nodded,
"Now we can only burn our boats!"
After all, it was a matter of two lives, might as well go all out, could they kneel and beg for mercy or something?
