Han Sen looked inside the door and saw the shadow kneeling . There were no more musical notes or energy signatures left to scan . Xiang Yin would probably not make it .
"You lose . Badly! Now, watch as she dies! I am different; I have many more ways to play with you . " Yaksha began to cackle like a mad scientist .
"How can you be so certain I'll watch her die?" Han Sen said .
Yaksha spat out blood and mumbled, "You are only a little stronger than me . You have only opened nine gene locks; you cannot enter there . "
"And who said I'll need to enter to save her?" Han Sen then brought out his bone xun .
"What's that for? Are you going to play a requiem on her behalf? Or perhaps you're going to somehow play the song of Gandharva?" Yaksha jested in spite .
"I can play that, if that is what you would like to hear . " Han Sen then brought the xun to his lips . He blew into the head, causing a stream of white light to cast its way into the door .

The power was the same that the xun created, and he used this to recharge her body .
"How?" Xiang Yin felt this power enter her body, providing her support before she collapsed completely .
She only needed a little bit more power to reach the tenth step, and with that power, she had hope .
Xiang Yin's notes filled the air, and her scent re-fragranced the atmosphere . With Han Sen's help, she was slowly able to move forward and take one last step .
"Impossible! She only played it once . How can you know the song of Gandharva already?!" Yaksha barked .
Carried by the gentle soundwaves of that divine music, Xiang Yin leaned forward, ready to take that last step .
"No! It should be me who makes that final step!"

Yaksha looked insane as he watched Xiang Yin take that one last step .
Yaksha's eyes were going bigger and bigger, unable to believe what he was seeing .
Boom!
The tenth step was scaled, and when Xiang Yin set both feet on it, a flame ravaged her entire body .
The light was too bright to witness what was happening now . But it eventually dimmed, and when it did, Han Sen saw her reborn . She looked so holy, like a divine fairy or angelic being .
Xiang Yin spoke something to him, but Han Sen could not hear the words . He could only read her lips .
The door closed, and as it did, Han Sen reviewed the words he believed her to have spoken: "I'll wait for you in the Fourth God's Sanctuary . "

Han Sen was not entirely sure that was what she said . She pointed at him as if she wished to say something further, but the door closed before she could .
Boom!
The door was closed, separating the two for good . Han Sen was depressed, having not even been able to receive a "thank you" for his efforts .
But Han Sen did not have time to dwell on it . He picked up Yaksha and just said, "You said you have many ways, right? I can tell you right now that you don't . I'll kill you every single time I see you . So, my advice to you is to keep that spirit stone safe . If you don't . . . "
Han Sen punched through Yaksha's skull and tossed his body away . Yaksha's body faded from sight, warping him back to his spirit stone .
When he respawned, he mulled over the words Han Sen had spoken to him . Han Sen's speech was one of remarkable confidence, and it made Yaksha angry to realize that he was now the weaker one .
"I'll make you regret this . " Yaksha left his shelter, making this one final vow .
Han Sen decided to make his way out of the underground realm . He exited his super king spirit mode, and his body was exhausted . So, he called for Golden Growler to carry him back .
Not long after, Han Sen came across the Blue Dinosaur and Queen . Queen looked incredibly relieved to see Han Sen .
"Let's go back to the shelter as soon as we can," Queen said, as she ran over to hold Han Sen in her arms .
"I'm not going back . Those *sshole super creatures tried to kill me, so I'm going to exact my revenge . " If it wasn't for the super creatures getting involved, Han Sen wouldn't be in such a condition .
He recalled their names and knew he had to kill them .
"They lead armies of noobs . That's it . And when they recover, I'm going to make light work of them," Han Sen said .
Han Sen set up a camp outside the cave's exit, and when he recovered, he thought of going after the rat king first . He wanted to take its Life Geno Essence .
A few days later, he was back in tip-top shape . With Blue Dinosaur, he returned to the underground .
