1058 Paramita Lotus

Once he got his hands on the blueprint to build the dimension, Chen Xiaobei did not care for anything else. He sped quickly into the deepest part of the cave. When he and Qie Loulan finally arrived, they had the shock of their lives.

There was a gargantuan hole as big as two football fields combined.

The ground was covered in large potholes and the walls were sanded smooth by friction.

Under normal circumstances, the Xiuhcoatl King would entrench a hole here. The thing that shocked Chen Xiaobei and Qie Loulan the most was the center of that hole, there was a charcoal gray chaotic matter like the blackhole in science books!

That dark chaotic matter was turning slowly like a bottomless ocean. It looked like a portal into another dimension.

"What is that?" Chen Xiaobei asked.

He had never seen or heard of anything like this.

 "If I'm not mistaken, this is a tear in spacetime!" Qie Loulan explained. "Back then, in order to build an independent dimension, I did a lot of research into space and secret ancient recordings and came across some articles about it! When a star undergoes supernova explosion or when there's a nuclear explosion, it could tear a hole in space. Most of them were able to close up on its own, and are not a threat to the balance of dimensions. But there are a small number of them that could not close up on its own and will turn into a special passage between two spaces that were not interconnected! And this one, probably already existed when I built this dimension. I think the Xiuhcoatl King used it to get through and attack me!"

Qie Loulan connected what he had just witnessed, with the knowledge he had acquired to come up with a logical conjecture.

 "But something doesn't add up!" Chen Xiaobei looked doubtful. "When you built this dimension, was there a supernova or a nuclear explosion?"

 "There was!" Qie Loulan said. "That year, my cultivation had already reached Sky Ninja. That was as powerful as a demigod! I fought with my enemy at the entrance of this space. The final attack produced a force a big as a nuclear explosion! The entire moat turned into ruins, and the entire island sank into the ocean."

This cleared everything up.

 "But, why would the Xiuhcoatl King keep guard here? It attacked you and robbed your treasury! Why doesn't it just return to where it came from?"

Chen Xiaobei thought about it, there was still something amiss.

 "That… I'm not sure…" Qie Loulan shook its head and said, "Since I'm just basing my deduction on whatever information I've gathered so far. I'm afraid only Xiuhcoatl King knows the exact details!"

 "No! There are answers in there! We can also find out the details!"

Chen Xiaobei said as he walked towards the dark hole.

"Bro Bei! Don't go there! Be careful! You might be sucked into the hole!"

Qie Loulan ran toward Chen Xiaobei.

"Look!"

Chen Xiaobei pointed at the area all around the hole.

The ground was strewn with semi-transparent granules that looked like glass.

"These… These are the shells of the Spiritual Stones after the Spiritual Qi has been sucked out!" Qie Loulan looked around and said, "This was about the same amount as the Spiritual Stones I kept in the treasury!"

 "There are your Spiritual Stones! The Xiuhcoatl King must have moved them here!" Chen Xiaobei said with certainty.

As he spoke, Chen Xiaobei took out the Green Jade Gourd.

 "Bro Bei, what are you doing?" Qie Loulan asked.

"There must a reason it moved the stones here!"

Qie Loulan uncorked the gourd.

Fwaaa… 

The Spiritual Qi inside the Green Jade Gourd was extracted by an invisible force and sucked into the hole!"

"That…" Qie Loulan's eyes lit up. "Could… it be that the Xiuhcoatl King did not use the Spiritual Stones itself but was feeding it into this tear in spacetime?"

 "That's the most probable explanation!" Chen Xiaobei said, "Your deduction may not be completely accurate! We are going to get the real answer soon!"

Chen Xiaobei did not even try to stop the Spiritual Qi he had worked so hard to accumulate being sucked away.

He knew that there was a major secret behind all this.

Otherwise the Xiuhcoatl King would not have moved the stones here.

"What really happened?"

Que Loulan looked, wide-eyed, at the hole.

One hundred… Two hundred… Five hundred…

Within half a minute, a good 1,000 Spiritual Qi was sucked away.

The greedy hole was finally satisfied and stopped taking in Spiritual Qi.

Fuuung…

The spinning of the tear in spacetime sped up and a ray of purplish-gold light shot out from the blackhole.

Chen Xiaobei and Qie Loulan stood there gaping.

The truth was about to be revealed.

Poof…

A purple lotus appeared in the light.

It began as a bud and then as it continued to float upwards, it bloomed into a pristine purple-gold lotus!

"My god… That… What is that…"

Qie Loulan was a demigod before he was killed. There was practically no treasury he had never seen before.

But this lotus flower before him, he had never seen or heard of before.

"My god! My luck is so f*cking good!"

Chen Xiaobei suddenly let out a cheer, looking extremely excited. "Paramita Lotus… This is a Divine Medicine… The real one!"

"Paramita Lotus? Divine Medicine?" Qie Loulan looked perplexed. "What use does it have?"

"Paramita Lotus! Just like the name suggested, it can help you to achieve perfection and help you to excel to the next level." Chen Xiaobei said as a huge grin spread across his face, "Elites like us know that breaking through cultivation is harder than building a ladder that can reach heaven! Many get stuck at the pinnacle phase of their cultivation for a very long time! Basically, this item will allow the user to increase the success rate to break through to their next cultivation! This is the Paramita Lotus!"

Qie Loulan's jaw fell. All elites would know the importance of this Paramita Lotus!

Chen Xiaobei had said that there was something way more valuable than Qie Loulan's treasures.

He did not want to believe it. But right now, it seemed that Qie Loulan would not even blink if he were asked to trade ten treasuries for this Paramita Lotus!
