Chapter 14: Senior Is An Immortal!

Doesn’t this mean that the ordinary-looking wine pot in his hand is a magic treasure even more powerful than a profound artifact?

Daoist Master Zhu Zhao was extremely shocked in his heart, and he didn’t dare to make any more movements with his hands.

Suddenly, Huang Ze stood by his side and pointed to a hidden place in the wine pot as if there was something there. He said, “Look here. There seems to be something.”

Zhu Zhao looked in the direction he was pointing at and indeed, he could vaguely see three ancient characters on it.

“Heaven-Raising Flagon? Heaven-Raising Flagon!”

Daoist Master Zhu Zhao suddenly recalled a part of the past of the immortal cultivation world on the continent that his master had told him before he died.

In the past, a cultivator with extremely poor aptitude had basically no possibility of cultivating to immortality. During an expedition, he accidentally obtained such a treasure, an immortal pot called Heaven-Raising Flagon.

Every day, that immortal teapot would absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, turning it into spirit liquid. This spirit liquid could repair and strengthen one’s own miraculous side. Most importantly, it could slowly improve one’s aptitude, allowing one’s physique to slowly approach the legendary innate Dao body.

After obtaining this treasure, that cultivator’s cultivation began to become smoother and smoother. His own aptitude also slowly became more outstanding. When others’ cultivation stagnated due to their own conditions, he would still slowly grow.

It was as if there were no bottlenecks. Every time he appeared in the immortal cultivation world, his cultivation would soar, eventually triggering people’s greed.

However, this cultivator’s cultivation had already reached the Tribulation Transcension stage. Those who went did not return, and this cultivator also never appeared again.

Because the increase in cultivation was truly heaven-defying, everyone believed that he would definitely not die in that battle strength. Everyone believed that he had already reached Tribulation Transcension and ascended to the Heaven realm.

It was said that back then, the Heaven-Raising Flagon was also brought along with him to ascend to the immortal world.

However, the wine pot in front of him seemed to be too similar to the one in the legends, right?

Could it be that the Heaven-Raising Flagon that was used to hold the wine in front of him was the Heaven-Raising Flagon back then?!

Zhu Zhao and Huang Ze did not know, but in their hearts, they were almost certain of the identity of this wine pot.

If they had seen this in other places, they would not have believed it. But after all the shock, they had already begun to worship Liu Changgong in front of them. They would not be shocked by any kind of strange things and were beginning to get used to everything.

What was wrong with such a heaven-shaking immortal artifact in the hands of a senior? Such a treasure would always be in the hands of the virtuous. Could it be that such a good senior who took care of his juniors and spared no effort to support his juniors should not have such a good thing?

After looking at it, Zhu Zhao put down the wine flask in his hand and picked up the wine cup from before. He realized that such an item could be placed on par with the Heaven-Raising Flagon. Didn’t that mean…

Immortal artifact!

These two words were on the verge of coming out from Zhu Zhao’s mouth. For such a wine cup to be placed together with an immortal artifact like the Heaven-Raising Flagon, there was no other choice but to do so.

Using the Heaven-Raising Flagon as a wine pot and holding an immortal item that was comparable to the Heaven-Raising Flagon as a wine cup, it was filled with the most ordinary peasant wine, using the most ordinary materials in the world.

What kind of person was this mysterious Senior Liu Changgong? And how shocking was his cultivation?

Mahayana stage? Tribulation Transcension stage…

Or perhaps he was that immortal from the upper realm who fell in love with the mortal world and thus came to the mortal world to play in the mortal world?

The more Zhu Zhao thought about it, the more uncertain he became. Before he came, he thought that this senior might be an old senior of the Grand Moon Sect, but now, he was close to overturning this conjecture.

How could his sect have a relationship with such a high and mighty immortal-like figure? His sect had never recorded such a figure. The highest level a cultivator from the Grand Moon Sect had reached was Dharma Idol realm, so it was impossible for them to get to know such a big figure!

Was it really like what Huang Ze had said, that it was just a gift that he gave to his disciple Yu Linglong when he saw a younger generation that he liked? Was he just taking advantage of his disciple’s good fortune?

Liu Changgong saw that the two old men had been carefully looking at the rewards that he had drawn from the system, his heart thumped. “It can’t be, right? Could it be that the things that the system rewards for learning all kinds of skills are really good things in this world?”

He couldn’t help but regret pointing out the extraordinariness of the wine pot when they were puzzled.

During his years of learning, the system would give him corresponding rewards when everything had reached the point of returning to the basics or when he had completed a task.

Calligraphy and painting had rewards like brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones.

Piano and chess had rewards for his guqin and top-quality chess pieces.

This wine flask was his reward for his accomplishment in cooking wine…

————————————

“Don’t tell me these two old guys want to forcefully take it for themselves? Looking at them, they’re a little reluctant to let it go. Should I fight for it based on reason? Or…”

However, when he thought about how he was just a powerless mortal, and how they were immortal cultivators standing at the top of the food chain in this world, he was no match for them.

So what if they robbed him?

Liu Changgong quickly figured it out. In any case, he was starting to get a little bored in this world, and it was a good time to go see the King of Hell.

After thinking this through, Liu Changgong began to put down his mental burden and began to treat these two seemingly powerful immortal cultivators more casually.

However, although Huang Ze and Zhu Zhao weren’t decent gentlemen, they wouldn’t go so far as to kill people and steal treasures. Moreover, in their eyes, Liu Changgong was a great senior whose cultivation level wasn’t even clear to them. Instead, Zhu Zhao carefully placed the items on the table. He was afraid that they would be damaged.

Liu Changgong couldn’t help but laugh inwardly when he saw how careful they were. How could these things be damaged so easily? How many times had he accidentally dropped them, but they weren’t damaged at all? Not even a speck of dust could be seen.

‘A great senior like Senior Liu, whose cultivation level is profound, generously showed us such an immortal artifact. He definitely wouldn’t be worried about any accidents.’

‘That’s right, would Senior Liu be worried that the treasure would be taken away by a group of ants?’

At the thought of this, the heat in Zhu Zhao’s eyes dissipated, and his gaze became completely clear. He turned around and bowed to Liu Changgong.

“Thank you for the wine, Senior. We have all reaped a great harvest this time. This trip was really worth it.”

“I’m really sorry to disturb you this time, Senior, but I still wanted to express to you the ‘The sun rises and the mountain shadows’ painting that senior gave to my disciple. This painting is not only very helpful to Linglong, but it is also very useful to us.”

Liu Changgong came to a sudden realization when he heard this, but he said indifferently, “It’s just a painting that I casually put on hand. If it’s helpful to you, I’m very happy too.”
