Ye Xiao tried a few more times but failed to sense his Universe. In the end, he could only give up.
For a moment, Ye Xiao had a thought that the Lotus of Chaos betrayed him and somehow escaped with his universe.
Fortunately, that was not the case. Ye Xiao was sure that the Lotus of Chaos had nothing to do with whatever peculiar was happening to him.
He couldn't fathom the reason behind this occurrence, but he could, at the very least, sense his connection with the universe. It means he was still the master of his universe and could, very likely, sense the universe soon enough.
For now, he could only focus on the current situation. Since he could not talk to the Lotus of Chaos, he needed to figure out everything himself.
Ye Xiao then started thinking about how should he extract a few strands of Comprehensive Energy from his Origin Sea.
