The commotion caused by the mysterious scent affects not only the interior of the Daoist temple.
The temple looks quiet at night, but it is far from peaceful. In the darkness, countless eyes are silently watching.
The abrupt barking of dogs breaks the night's silence, and the air seems to become restless.
If you look closely, you might occasionally see vague silhouettes, but they maintain a certain distance from the temple because, after the disastrous failure during last forceful action, all external forces pay attention to keeping their distance when approaching the temple.
The barking continues for over ten minutes, and the scent finally spreads beyond the temple.
By this time, the fragrance is already extremely faint, but some small air molecule detectors still sense the anomaly.
However, the anomaly is so subtle that no one notices it.
It is not until the next day that someone speculates the temple's unusual state yesterday might have something to do with the scent.
