“Mm, that was a good sleep.”
After twenty minutes had pa.s.sed, Chen Xiaobei finally stretched his limbs lazily and opened his eyes!
After that, he immediately stopped the Daylight Cache.
“Finally, you’re awake! How do you feel?” Liu Xuanxin’s beautiful eyes studied Chen Xiaobei.
“Vey good! I feel very very good!” Chen Xiaobei smiled as he opened his Netherspirit Battlescouter.

“2,000 years of life had been spent! Luckily, Six-Eared and the others have completely recovered, and my health has increased by 20,000! This means that with the Primordial Witch King Combat Enhancement Training Manual, I can wield 200,000 combat power!” Chen Xiaobei thought to himself. “More importantly, I can now use the new Blood Descendant’s Special Ability – Astral Projection! The 2,000 years lifespan is not wasted!”
“You’re fine, so that’s good!” Liu Xuanxin said. “You said just now that once you’re awake, we’ll go find the Blackwater Mystical Snake. Now that everyone is in perfect condition, let’s move!”
“Move? Nope!” Chen Xiaobei shook his head. “I can find the snake from here!”
“What? Here?” Liu Xuanxin asked. “Please stop joking around. Do you really think that you can see what’s happening say about a thousand miles from here?”
Everyone was very puzzled.
Even Xiangyu and Six-Eared Macaque who had complete faith in Chen Xiaobei did not know what he was about to do.
“No, but I have my own way!” Chen Xiaobei remained seated on the ground, closed his eyes and began to silently exercise his new Blood Descendent’s Special Ability.
Suddenly, a sudden surge of energy fluctuated from Chen Xiaobei’s body, swallowing his whole frame with an engulfing reddish flame.
Chen Xiaobei inhaled, and his closed eyes suddenly flew wide open. The red light around him streamed into his eyes like rivers converging from astuaries into the ocean.
Once all the light had entered his eyes, Chen Xiaobei exhaled vigorously. His eyes were suddenly lifeless as his head drooped weakly to his side, completely unresponsive.
“Xiaobei! What happened to you?” Liu Xuanxin panicked.
Everyone else was just as shocked, worried for Chen Xiaobei.
“Xiaobei is fine. There’s no need to worry!” Xiangyu understood what was happening immediately. “This is a Blood Descendent’s Special Ability. If everything goes well, Xiaobei will come back very soon.”
“Come back? Isn’t he sitting in front of us? Where would he be coming back from?” Liu Xuanxin was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with a million questions.
Li Xiang shot her a half-smile and pointed at a direction.
“From there!”
Everyone raised their heads. All they saw was the ceiling. Chen Xiaobei was nowhere to be seen.
It was then that Chen Xiaobei’s ‘Spirit’ had already penetrated the ceiling and was ascending to the skies.
“This Special Ability is called an Astral Projection but that is not actually his soul, right!”
Chen Xiaobei’s current form was a blood-red ball of flame, about as big as a palm.
This was very different from an ordinary Yin Spirit.
If he had to describe it, Chen Xiaobei felt that the term ‘Divine Consciousness’ would be a more astute description.
‘Divine Consciousness’ would be obtained when a cultivator had achieved G.o.d Ascension cultivation. It was also commonly known as the sixth sense!
When the Divine Consciousness was dispatched, the cultivator would be able to see any movement within a certain range.
This Divine Consciousness could also be used to take a peek into others’ cultivation and to search for items with Spirituality within the vicinity.
Based on these characteristics, this new Blood Descendant’s Special Ability should be called Primordial Spirit Unleashed!
The Blood Descendants had used the term ‘soul’ because of the differences between Western and Eastern cultures.
Of course, the name was not important. What was more important was the Special Ability itself!
“During G.o.d Ascension, one would grow their Primordial Spirit and when they became an Earth G.o.d, their Primordial Spirit would then be ready.” Chen Xiaobei thought to himself. “That’s why most people have to cultivate themselves to first become an Earth G.o.d before they can use their Divine Consciousness! Because of the Special Ability of the Blood Descendants, I can now use this Divine Consciousness even before I become an Earth G.o.d! This is cheating! Wahahaha!”
Chen Xiaobei was ecstatic.
He began to use his Divine Consciousness to sweep the area. .
“My speculation was correct! This is indeed Divine Consciousness!” Chen Xiaobei said excitedly. “I don’t even have to see with my eyes! I can feel the Anti-Bei Alliance people heading towards centerpoint of Epang Palace! There are 168 of them in total. I can sense everyone’s footsteps with this Divine Consciousness!”
Of course, the Anti-Bei Alliance was not Chen Xiaobei’s target.
He continued to expand the coverage area of his Divine Consciousness and soon discovered something.
“Like Gordon said, this Special Ability allows me to sense the presence of Spiritual Items! This is awesome!”
With the Divine Consciousness now broadened, it was able to cover the entire Epang Palace area.
And in this area, Chen Xiaobei found six locations with strong Spirituality.
In other words, there was a high-tier Spiritual Item hidden in each of these locations.
“All of the buildings in Epang Palace are filled with mountains of silver and gold but these six areas stand out! If I’m right, these six Spiritual Items must be very important. If I can collect them one by one, I can draw out the Blackwater Mystical Snake, and let it have a taste of the dog biscuit!”
After memorising the six locations, Chen Xiaobei retracted his Divine Consciousness.
In the tower, he inhaled sharply, and his hanging head lifted up. His lifeless dark eyes gradually regained their vitality.
“Xiaobei! Are you alright?” Liu Xuanxin asked.
“I’m fine!” Chen Xiaobei smiled. “Let’s go! I’ve found a way to draw the Blackwater Mystical Snake out!”
Really? Wow, you’re really incredible aren’t you!” The rest of the group exclaimed.
“Of course! Let’s go!” Chen Xiaobei got up immediately.
Before they departed, Chen Xiaobei checked with his Netherspirit Battlescouter again.
Ding!

“What the h.e.l.l! I really have paid a hefty price for using Divine Consciousness before becoming an Earth G.o.d!” Chen Xiaobei smiled bitterly. “Whatever, what’s more important now is to capture that snake!”
