Terrifying waves of sound washed over the cliff as everything vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The phantom image within the white light stood up, hands clasped behind its back, like a deity looking down upon the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gradually, the vision faded away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai opened his eyes. All the Qi in his body had condensed within his Dantian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A gentleman is like jade, gentle and unrivaled.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These seven words were all that appeared in Shen Bai’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was eager to circulate the Qi in his body and test the power of the Bright Jade Evil Body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was on a public street. Shen Bai figured that if a jade-like white light suddenly erupted from his body, it would probably cause a huge commotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The new Attribute from the Bright Jade Evil Body was particularly interesting. Within a certain limit, Shen Bai could use it to return any and all attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not just Weapons, but even unarmed techniques could be reflected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Something’s not right. Something feels off about me.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After absorbing all the Information, Shen Bai felt more and more that something was amiss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Dantian was now full of Qi, and he felt as if something was about to sprout forth from within it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, a sliver of Qi overflowed from his Dantian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, this overflowing Qi flowed toward his kidneys.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once his kidneys were filled with this Qi, Shen Bai felt an unusual new understanding of how to use his Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like his own arm—he could command it however he wished, smoothly and naturally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Qi that had moved to his kidneys felt like it had become a part of his very body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Is this the Three Treasures Realm?’ Shen Bai wondered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Three Treasures Realm is divided into three layers: Essence, Qi, and Spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, he was cultivating his own Essence, which was centered in the kidneys.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reaching this level, the more Qi that moved to his kidneys, the stronger his control over his Qi would become.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’No wonder they say every new realm is like a new mountain. With this level of control, wouldn’t I be able to completely dominate experts at the Daoist Scripture Realm?’ Shen Bai thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having gained a new Divine Power and advanced to the Three Treasures Realm, Shen Bai was ecstatic, and his need for the black Evil Qi grew even more urgent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Tonight, I might be able to get a quick appraisal from the Ancient True Scripture.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After draining the tea from his cup, Shen Bai mused to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sat in his seat and began to wait patiently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While waiting, he silently observed the various activities of the Sun Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People came and went in a ceaseless flow. The clamor and footsteps on the bustling street slowly faded as the day wore on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a detached observer, Shen Bai watched the chaotic street, finding the atmosphere strangely refreshing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He disliked serene and lofty environments, preferring instead the vulgar clamor of a busy marketplace and the lively, mundane energy of city life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky gradually darkened as the last sliver of the setting sun sank behind the clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The common folk nearby packed up their stalls and headed home. With their day’s work done, they began their evening with family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai had long since left the tea stall. Leaning against a corner wall, he watched the entire Sun Family estate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From morning until now, there had been no movement from the Sun Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai was waiting for the right moment to go in and take another look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gradually, the sun finally disappeared, and a sliver of moonlight spilled down from behind dark clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moon, like a jade plate, hung high in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bright moonlight was like a gorgeous veil draped over this jade plate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It’s time.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai stretched, loosened his limbs, and made his way to the outer wall of the Sun Family estate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He vaulted the wall with practiced ease and used the darkness to hide his figure, observing the estate for any signs of activity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from the main house, where an oil lamp was still lit, all the other areas were dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Great Zhou Country, where there were no modern forms of entertainment, people generally went to bed early—unless they were frequenting the brothels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, those hoping to get in a round or two of baby-making would also stay up a bit later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the surrounding darkness, Shen Bai’s gaze fell on the room where the coffin was locked. He vaulted down, landing steadily in the courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that no one was around, Shen Bai rubbed his hands together in excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Money, beauty, power—none of these things were enough to truly excite Shen Bai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only this Evil Qi was the source of his excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Looks like I’ll be making another gain today,’ Shen Bai thought as he walked toward the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room was locked from the outside, but for Shen Bai, that wasn’t a problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After approaching, Shen Bai prepared to raise his left hand and open the lock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could make a move, he suddenly heard footsteps approaching from the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai narrowed his eyes, then his figure flashed as he hid in a corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using the darkness as cover, Shen Bai observed carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The footsteps were light but erratic. The person seemed to be walking without strength, dragging their shoes along the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the right side of the room, a young woman dressed in fine silks and satins slowly approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Is that Miss Sun?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai frowned upon seeing the woman’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miss Sun’s face was pale and her eyes were dull. She walked toward the room like a wooden puppet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Miss Sun arrived in front of the room, she raised her index finger and gently brushed it against the lock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some unknown reason, the lock sprang open on its own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the lock was open, Miss Sun pushed open the door and walked inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a soft thud, Miss Sun shut the door completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, a thought struck Shen Bai, and he quietly crept to the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He extended his index finger, poked a hole in the window paper, and leaned in to peer through it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Evil Qi was important, but what came after was just as important.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It seems there’s more than one Locust Tree,’ Shen Bai thought. ’I wonder if I can snag a few more wisps of Evil Qi.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room was dim. Other than the flickering candlelight surrounding the coffin, there was nothing out of the ordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Shen Bai’s gaze swept across the room, it suddenly froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had discovered a dark figure standing in the corner of the room.\u003C\u002Fp>",1272,"2026-06-03T14:13:26.865Z","2026-06-03T14:13:33.156Z",1,"novelbin.me","75e04f5b6235d0fb97fc3b5fce752cac07db7e565a90aa8bdd0ebf407c3247c4","i-can-extract-divine-power-chapter-143","i-can-extract-divine-power-chapter-142",322,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-can-extract-divine-power-cover.jpg"]
