Now, the elixir refining pot was back to its normal humble and rugged appearance. It was covered by a thick layer of dust, old, worn out and threatening to break at any time.
However, the pot could not be underestimated just because its appearance. It had an amazing history and the flames in the pot was extremely dangerous.
Austin summoned up the courage and cautiously tried to teleport the pot into the Slave Tower.
As Austin took the elixir refining pot, everyone stayed outside quite a distance away from the building. No one dared to come in, because they were afraid that the fire in the pot would charge again unexpectedly and hurt people again.
The girls, including Caroline and others, were very worried as fearful thoughts ran in a loop in their minds. They repeatedly reminded him to be careful.
In the end, Austin succeeded. Without any incident, the elixir refining pot was safely sent to the ninth floor of the Slave Tower.
The elixir refining pot was shrouded in a lot of secrecy. Even the Taoist Ancestor in the legend had studied it and still could not uncover everything about it. It must have a shocking secret.
Austin decided to leave it untouched for now and figured that he could study it when he was powerful enough in the future.
"Alright, let's go.
Let's go to the second floor and have a look."
Sherman, the eldest holy tree, waved its branch and led the others to the second floor.
The second floor was small in size, so the decorations and furnishing were also very simple.
In the middle of the room, there were one square table and two chairs.
On the table lay a tea set and a crock pot.
There was a small table by the window that had an ancient musical instrument on it. As the soothing breeze blew by, melodious music could be heard coming from the musical instrument.
In the corner of the room, there was a bed carved out of stone. The style was very simple and crude, as if it had been done by a none professional using improvised tools.
On one wall of the room, there were old clothes hanging as if they had been designed from an ancient style.
It looked like a very simple living room.
The ancient musical instrument near the window made the room look more elegant.
"In the ancient days, the Taoist Ancestor often came here to cultivate and stayed in this room for several months,"
said Sherman.
"Sherman, there doesn't seem to be any treasure in this room.
Why did you bring us here?"
The supreme holy tree suspiciously glanced around the room and saw nothing extraordinary. In its eyes, everything in the room was ordinary.
"Woodrow, think about it. That Taoist Ancestor had plundered a lot of treasures from the Immortal World.
Legend has it that he robbed at least dozens of clans.
The wealth of that man is way beyond our imagination.
Hence, you can't look down upon anything that belongs to the Taoist Ancestor.
Well, a long time ago, I saw with my own eyes when the Taoist Ancestor used the most important treasure of the Polarity Illusion Sect, the Polarity Double Pillar, as chopsticks. He also used the Moon Immortal Kettle, a very precious weapon of the Multiple Moons Sect, as his chamber pot and the Killing Immortal Needle, considered the most valuable treasure of the Snow I
nature after drinking the tea.
Then, Austin, Caroline, Ivy, Sue, Violet, the little infinity beast, and the divine silkworm, all rushed over and poured a cup of tea for themselves.
After drinking the tea, they all captured a piece of law of nature and got into a mysterious state of enlightenment that they never could have reached no matter how far they would have searched.
A moment later, everyone sobered up.
Austin opened the crock pot on the square table and found that it contained ninety pieces of tea leaves exuding a wonderful fragrance.
"I have found the leaves of the Enlightening Tea! There is only one Enlightening Tea Tree in the Immortal World. Only fifty leaves are produced every five hundred thousand years. The old bastard actually had ninety leaves!
Let's divide them among ourselves!"
the supreme holy tree shouted aloud. It was so excited that its face on the trunk flushed.
Austin wasn't against the idea and they divided up the ninety pieces of the Enlightening Tea leaves equally.
"What is this?
This robe looks so familiar..."
Austin inadvertently saw a robe on the wall. There were a Taoist hat and a fly whisk beside it.
"Oh, it looks like something that the immortal guard used!"
Austin shouted.
Previously, in front of the gate of the Celestial Palace, there was a middle-aged Taoist priest, guarding the palace.
While being besieged by lots of powerful masters including the leader of the Heavenly Palace, the middle-aged Taoist had summoned a robe with a double-fish pattern on it, a Taoist hat, and a fly whisk. Once he was adorned the powerful items he had summoned he seemed to have become more powerful and fought back with more gusto.
Austin didn't expect to see the Taoist robe, the Taoist's hat and the fly whisk here!
Just as Austin stared at the robe carefully, a voice was heard.
"Ha ha...
The eight holy trees, I know you are hiding in this building. Come out and surrender."
All of a sudden, they heard someone laugh hysterically.
"Hey hey! These eight holy trees belong to the underworld now.
You people from the Divine Sect, get out of here immediately!"
Another gloomy voice was heard.
