Such a phenomenon, he hadn't seen it during the day, nor had he seen it before he closed the doors to rest at night, and he had used his right eye's superpower repeatedly to look in that direction many times before. He was certain that this had never appeared before.
It was only after the somewhat distinct fragrance became intense that he saw this scene, which means that this phenomenon might very well be the reason for the fragrance's intensity.
He wasn't sure if this fragrance had anything to do with the Reversing Soul Tree, but according to some legends, even if the Reversing Soul Tree hasn't been refined into Death Refusing Incense, the tree itself emits some fragrance.
And it was because he smelled that indistinct fragrance sourced from unknown places after climbing the mountain, which matched relevant legends, that led him to believe the Reversing Soul Tree still existed, right on the Divine Mountain, he just hadn't found it yet.
