CHAPTER 63: THE DOMAIN -7

Obviously, she won’t do something like that. That’s just a stupid thing that someone thinks seemingly out of nowhere.

But being brutally honest, she has no idea and she is unsure of how to progress further.

For a moment, she decided to take a bath. She wanted to feel refreshed and clear her mind.

..

Soaking in the warm water, she closed her eyes, her body relaxing. She took her time, enjoying every moment of the bath.

Finally, she got up, and as she was about to step out of the bathtub, her eyes fell on a small vial of oil sitting on the counter. She picked it up.

Based on the label; It was an aromatic oil with a subtle floral scent.

Without a second thought, she poured some onto her palm and rubbed it into her skin, enjoying the way it felt. It had a cold sensation and soon enough, the fragrance filled the air around her as she finished her bath and stepped out of the tub.

She stood in front of the mirror, a towel wrapped around her body, and stared at her reflection. She looked at her face, her hair, and her figure, and couldn’t help but feel a little self-conscious.

She wondered what the young man thought of her. Did he truly find her attractive? Did he see her as more than just a master alchemist? She pondered these questions as she began to dry her hair, trying to make sense of the emotions swirling inside her.

She had a good curvy body and wide hips with visually large and round breasts.

"Ah, I must be going senile. What am I doing? He is just a boy, much younger than me. I should focus on my cultivation and ignore these fleeting thoughts," she muttered to herself, trying to shake off the strange feelings that had been plaguing her lately.

Geez, how come she is just thinking about him?

"Damn it... It is those gifts, he keep appearing in my mind... He just talks funny and serious...." She could see the tricks he was playing.

After that, she sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.

Bai Long wasn’t ready to enter the domain again.

He at least wanted to make a breakthrough to the fifth stage of the Qi Saint realm or at least wanted to awaken the first page of the dragon sutra.

So, he went to the hunting ground.

He managed to kill many beasts and a few people but they were as poor as beggars with little to no possessions.

Later at night,

He went back to the family.

He was greeted by Elder Wu.

It seems they are thinking that appointing the new Patriarch and Bai Huan is the most suitable one due to his clean character but since, he is a disciple at The Great Autumn Holy land, he can’t be the patriarch and manage the house.

Elder Wu stays mostly in seclusion and other elders also don’t want to step up as patriarch as it would decrease their cultivation time and they have to constantly be active in family matters.

Anyway, Bai Long had little to no interest in that position.

He went back to his quarters and sat cross-legged.

Inside his sea of consciousness.

The Dragon Sutra was glowing deep shade of red.

"Hehe... It’s ready. I hope it’s something good that can help me kill those cockroaches,"

As soon as he touched the sutra, a magical scroll popped open in mid-air.

Woosh~

It was glowing with a menacing red glow.

Suddenly, he began to see the visions...

Kill!! Kill!!! Kill!!

KILL!! KILL! KILL!!

woosh~

He saw a menacing horrifying tree where instead of fruits, the heads of little kids were hanging.

Heaven-despair tree.

Kids below the age of 14 have something called a spirit embryo instead of a Spirit root that will slowly develop into a Spirit root.

( for normal people who aren’t born with a spirit root right away )

And this Heaven-despair tree is something that feeds on the spirit embryo only.

The next second, the scene changed...

He could see the sky cracked open with a small butterfly flying around a Heavenly celestial garden.

Boom!!!

The next moment those butterflies exploded.

He has successfully mastered the "Blood-essence dragon butterfly art..."

Yes, as the name suggests he needs to burn his blood essence to create a Dragon butterfly that can explode and the power of the explosion depends on the killing intent and cultivation base.

"Damn it... The power of the Dragon butterfly is unquestionable but it needs me to burn my blood essence."

( Blood-essence = 10 years affected by blood, Life-essence = 50 years affected by vitality )

Also this tree..

Bai Long looked at a small tree inside his sea of consciousness.

This tree feeds on the spirit embryo of kids, but its uses are unknown.

The vision he saw only showed the vast tree with tons and tons of kids hanging there.

It was very bad to watch it.

"Damn... I have burned a lot of my blood essence.. And I didn’t have much blood essence left otherwise my Dao heart would be severely damaged. I might only be able to create two butterflies with the condition of my heart. If not, I might suffer a backlash." Bai Long muttered to himself.

Not to mention, there is also Mother Gu that feeds on Blood essence.

She will soon give birth to another larva.

..

The butterfly was powerful than shards when it came to explosive power so, he decided to only use it when necessary, yet he still created one Butterfly using his blood essence.

Furthermore, he can also share his vision with the butterfly and can see 2 meters radius around the butterfly. ( full 360° )

However, Bai Long failed to comprehend that when someone is killed by a butterfly, he can louder their talent.

And even if they aren’t killed, it can severely damage their "origin" and reduce their talent.

It is very useful to lower the luck of the Protagonist.
