Chapter 2259 Rose's Aura

"Oh, you found it brother," Whisker said happily. "Congratulations."

"But... there is no flower there," Pearl said. "Can we even be happy?"

"Oh, we can be happy," Alex said. "If nothing, I know exactly where to come to next time I need to come here."

The four of them approached the plant, standing right before it by the end. The other three had no idea what they were doing standing before a plant with no flowers. Not even a bud. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Can you learn anything from it?" Pearl asked.

"I'm not sure," Alex said, crouching in front of the plant. "Let me look at it first."

He used his spiritual sense to look at the plant but found himself unable to push past the body of the plant. That was good news. It meant that there was energy inside of the plant which was forcing his spiritual sense out.

If there was energy within the plant, then it was not in the early stages of growing a flower. Given that the Seven-colored Angel Rose grew once every year, the amount of energy inside of it was a clue to how close it was to forming a flower.

Although the rose blossomed once a year, that was not to say that it blossomed every year exactly at the same time. It was close enough in precision, however, that it only missed the mark by a day or two.

However, that day or two was enough for someone to find the flower and take it away. The Seven-Colored Angel Rose had so many great applications thanks to its soul-soothing nature that anyone with any soul injury would want it. Many even took it for preventative measures.

Considering the amount of people that would be looking for this flower from the tournament alone, Alex had to take it before anyone else did.

Only, it was almost impossible to tell when it was really going to blossom. He knew the flower wasn't at the early stages, but that didn't mean he knew which stage it was in. He went through the Alchemy God's knowledge to learn more about the rose. There was information about what the flower did, how easily it could be plucked, and the fact that it produced a certain phenomenon when it was close to blossoming. 'The energy is gathering rather well,' Alex thought, looking at the plant with his eyes. He could see a few hues of colors escape from the stem of a plant as wisps of light.

Alex wondered if the rate of how quickly they released was going to be of any importance. That could be the phenomenon that the information in his brain was talking about.

Alex nodded. "Is that so surprising?" he asked. "It's not much of an aura though. It's barely even there at all."

Pearl didn't say anything. "Ooh! I think I can sense it too," Whisker said, his long whiskers twitching.

"Can you?" Alex asked with a surprised look.

"I think so," Whisker said. "The aura is similar to inside the Timeless palace and in the cultivation chambers on the third mountain."

"Right..." Alex said slowly, his eyes widening both with shock and surprise. He was amazed to figure out that Whisker could sense Time aura now. At this rate, he might end up being able to sense Space Aura as well. "Staying around places with so much Time aura must've made you susceptible to it. Can you do anything with that information though? Or can you just sense it?" Alex asked.

"Just sense it," Whisker said. "That too only thanks to my whiskers, I think. I don't think I can be of much help to you out here."

"Thanks, good enough. Use the Standing Pendulum whenever you have the time to. It's a good opportunity to learn more about time," Alex told him.

Whisker nodded. "Can I use it inside the chambers? Or will the time aura inside there affect my understanding?" he asked.

"Uhhh... better to not use it there," Alex said. "Just use the Voidsand Hourglass to measure the change of the pendulum and... whatever, I'll explain it to you later."

"Okay."

Alex was about to begin trying to focus on the plant, but one thing bugged his mind so very much.

'Damn, I am wasting so much time dilation inside of the chambers,' he thought. 'I need to make good use of it.'

That point bugged in his mind until he made the decision to look at it after the tournament. Then, he could focus back on the Seven-Colored Angle Rose plant.

He sucked in a deep breath and looked at the plant, using his Demon Eyes to see the changes in the purple color that came out from the plant. Whenever it did, he focused on the aura, trying to understand what it was doing. He quickly realized that the Time aura here wasn't about slowing down time or speeding up time.

It was something else entirely, and that was something Alex would have to figure out now.
