“What kind of secrets can there be in the Four Great Sanctuaries?”
“Times have changed, and the earth’s spiritual essence in the atmosphere is thinner. Even if those places are the Four Great Cultivation Sanctuaries, it wouldn’t be the same as before. I once went to the Mountain Warrior Sect and found that the spiritual essence in the air was very thin. It wasn’ t any better than what you can see in the Flying Eagles Academy, and it’s not even comparable to the inside of the ancient boundary.”
“There are many of the Mountain Warriors disciples that enter the Flying Eagles Academy. Some even come looking for a master here!”
When the Fairy Doctor spoke of the Four Great Sanctuaries, she seemed a little disapproving. It was probably because she thought that the Four Great Sanctuaries had long since fallen from grace and were no longer as powerful as they were before.
They even tried to curry favor with the Flying Eagles Academy.
“Look at this!”
Alex tossed her the ancient jade bracelet in his hand. As the middle-aged man had already died, the soul imprint on the ancient jade bracelet had also been dispersed. Thus, anyone could insert their spiritual consciousness inside it to check its contents.
When the Fairy Doctor examined it, she let out a cry of surprise immediately. “There are so many things inside it!”
She looked at Alex in astonishment.
“Look at the quality of it,” Alex said.
This time, the Fairy Doctor studied it for a full five minutes. When she finally came back to her senses, there were many emotions in her expression.
“There’s something wrong with it!”
She also immediately noticed that something was wrong. “Many items in this storage bracelet can’t be found inside the Flying Eagles Academy, and some of them only appear inside the ancient boundary. These are resources that are non-tradable either because the academy wouldn’t sell any of these items. Also, the ones that the academy has gotten had long since been divided and distributed. So how did the Mountain Warriors get their hands on it?”
“Earlier, that man revealed something to me,” Alex said. “The disciples that they sent to the academy were all just an act.”
“So, that’s why you’re saying that the Four Great Sanctuaries are not some poor sods!” the Fairy Doctor said.
Alex nodded. “That man was just the sect master’s nephew, yet he has such a wealth of resources that are comparable to all the inventory in the Flying Eagles Academy. The stuff he has is also of a higher level. Just think about how much more the person in control of them has?”
He paused. “I have a bold thought, whether the Four Great Sanctuaries have already been able to enter the ancient boundary a long time ago, and… Whether there’s something bigger they’re hiding.”
“For example… ?”
He placed Holly on the Warm Jade Bed and activated the formation on it. Soon, the spiritual essence in their surroundings started to gather on the bed. After a while, the spiritual mist evaporated, and the formation pulled on fairy power from far away.
The few people around them were shocked.
Even though they weren’t lying on the Warm Jade Bed, they could still reap the benefits from it. The effect of the Warm Jade Bed condensing the spiritual essence around them was much stronger than the formations Alex had made to imitate it.
“With the bed, Holly can last a bit longer,” Alex said.
Maya watched as the spiritual essence from far away was condensed from a distance and how it all formed a spiritual vortex above the villa. She couldn’t help but voice her worry. “Isn’t this a little too obvious? Cultivators will notice it right away, and I’m afraid that it might attract some people that will come coveting it.”
Alex furrowed his brows and glanced at it, then said, “It is indeed too conspicuous.”
At this moment, Seiryuu, one of the Four Great Princesses that they had scurried away from the Coleman family, said, “My lord, why don’t we go to the uninhabited island from before? The spiritual essence in the atmosphere on the sea is stronger by a little, and it’s not easy to attract the attention of others there.”
After everyone discussed it, it was decided that they did just that.
