The Ethereal Domains

Chapter 1018: Exclusive!

Exclusive! . . .

Xuan Bing was astounded. "Really? Is it true?"

Cha Eun Xiao was equally surprised. "What? Every morning, there\'s a massive whirl of energy. You\'re such a powerful cultivator. How could you not have known about it?"

"I did feel something, but I thought it was due to the special phenomenon. I simply didn\'t pay attention."

"That whirlwind carried the purple qi to Heaven Treasure Mountain. The air\'s energy suddenly changed afterward. Don\'t you recognize it?" Cha Eun Xiao found it difficult to comprehend.

[It\'s such an obvious thing. A strong sign. Even Xuan Bing didn\'t notice it? It doesn\'t make sense!]

"I genuinely didn\'t know," Xuan Bing shook her head in ignorance.

"Gosh!" Cha Eun Xiao sighed and didn\'t know what to say next.

Then, he had an epiphany. Something became clear to him.

Every morning, the purple qi rose from the east. Perhaps all cultivators used this energy to enhance their cultivation. However, it was challenging for them to discern the route of the purple qi. Perhaps he was the sole individual in the world who could perceive it.

After all, he had just inquired about it with Xuan Bing, and even a supremely powerful figure like her couldn\'t detect it. Not to mention anyone else.

This led to another conclusion. He could perceive what others couldn\'t because he had mastered the East-rising Purple Qi. That was why no one else in the world could sense the movement of the purple qi except him.

For the same reason, he could unravel the mountain\'s mystery, while others, including Xuan Bing and the natives who had lived in this place for centuries, could not.

Otherwise, there was no logical explanation for why no one had unraveled the secret of this mountain or the movements of the purple qi.

Now he comprehended it all.

He could see the source of the Oracle District\'s greatest secret.

He could unravel the mystery of the Mountain of All Medicines because of the martial art he had mastered.

East-rising Purple Qi.

The ancient martial art from the beginning of history.

At this moment, he appeared profound.

He turned to face the mountain, brimming with enigma and peculiarity.

For no apparent reason, two lines of text emerged in his mind.

Peerless lord of the world and primal spirit in chaos!

It reminded him of Erhuo!

He suddenly realized that Erhuo might have been sleeping for too long.

After they descended from the mountain and encountered Han Bingxue, Erhuo had slumbered in the Boundless Space for a lengthy period. It had remained asleep up to this moment and did not appear to be awakening.

In truth, Cha Eun Xiao had not interacted with Erhuo unless he required dan beads. It seemed he had forgotten Erhuo for quite some time, and he felt remorseful. He appeared to be a lackluster master!

Xuan Bing observed Cha Eun Xiao with a unique expression. Outwardly serene, her heart was actually in turmoil.

[Cha Eun Xiao.]

[Master. You are a repository of mysteries, which I never realized!]

[You recognized the Manifestation Mystic Array at first glance!]

[It\'s an ancient array art, understood by only a few individuals in the entire Qing-Yun Realm. You actually detected it, simultaneously with me.]

[Perhaps you identified it before I did!]

[In just a few conversations, you obtained the opportunity to enter this mountain...]

[What are your intentions with this mountain?]

[And that Regeneration Ink Lotus of yours that\'s on the verge of transforming...]

[Do you realize that you would have been killed by that lotus if I weren\'t Bing\'er? If I were any other elder from Misty Cloud Palace!]

"It seems you don\'t care much about that Regeneration Lotus. I suppose you have plenty, don\'t you?" Xuan Bing\'s mind was filled with questions, yet she refrained from voicing any of them.

She wanted to trust Cha Eun Xiao, not to doubt him.

[My master will not harm me.]

Unbeknownst to her, the lotus Cha Eun Xiao had displayed to the Li Clan members was actually the least valuable among the lotuses in his Boundless Space.

It was true!

Since he had obtained the Regeneration Ink Lotus the last time, he had placed it inside the Boundless Space and allowed it to grow freely. In return, it had produced many more. In his Wood Space, he had three acres of farmland where all these lotuses thrived.

The majority of these lotuses had already transformed into Regeneration Jade Lotuses, which were essential life-saving medicines for the superior cultivators of Misty Cloud Palace.

That night, Cha Eun Xiao sat cross-legged, absorbed in absorbing the spiritual qi from the sky and the earth. He was determined to master the high-quality spiritual qi in the atmosphere.

He refused to believe that it was impossible to absorb.

Han Bingxue meditated on the other side, fully aware that Cha Eun Xiao might engage in a battle against Li Clan the following day. While he was certain the fight would be a breeze for himself, he was concerned about Cha Eun Xiao\'s safety.

He needed to be prepared in case anything went wrong.

In the darkness, Xuan Bing\'s black robe seemed to blend into the shadows. She watched Cha Eun Xiao from time to time, her eyes occasionally shifting to another direction. She was careful not to reveal her concerns.

She trusted Cha Eun Xiao wholeheartedly. But questions nagged at her.

[Why?]

[Master, you have so many secrets.]

In the Boundless Space, Erhuo had been asleep for over a month. Its fur had become semi-translucent, its pristine white hair resembling finely carved jade. It remained spotlessly clean.

Although it continued to sleep, one of its eyes suddenly twitched, and it slowly opened.
