Chapter 1721 Two Semi-omnipotent Herbs
The old man grew curious about why such a powerful cultivator would call Austin as master. The
confused look on his face showed his dilemma.
''Well, to tell you the truth, Brady is the guardian spirit of this ve Tower."
Seeing the baffled expression on the old man''s face, Austin tried to exin in the simplest of words.
"The guardian spirit!
Am I hearing properly? Your tower should possess the guardian spirit?"
The old man nearly shouted out, unable to contain his excitement.
''''That''s true! Don''t you believe it?
Now, don''t you start making a fuss about it. I''m sure it''s no big deal, right?"
Austin said.
''''Ha ha! I''ll tell you what—only few magic treasures in the world possess guardian spirits.
In that case, your ve Tower is undoubtedly an inestimable and invaluable weapon. It is beyond a
No wonder it can easily defend the attacks of the ultimate magical treasure,"
the old man exined. He was still in a state of astonishment.
"I see."
Austin pretended as if he was unaware of it. He was very satisfied and happy to see the old man''s
jealous expression. He now had a measure of the power and importance of the ve Tower.
"Brady, someone seems to be attacking the ve Tower with an ultimate magical treasure. I''m a bit
worried about this."
Austin turned to Brady and expressed his concern.
He could perceive anything that was happening to the ve Tower because he had already owned it.
"Rest assured, master. The ultimate magical treasures cannot cause even the least damage to the
ve Tower,"
Brady answered, his voice filled with pride and confidence.
"Great!"
Austin was quite relieved after he heard Brady''s assertive words.
Outside the ve Tower, two holy lords of both the Rudimentary Holy Land and the Arcane Holy Land
were attacking it ferociously with their ultimate magical treasure.
However, the people inside the ve Tower were not affected by their attacks at all. The whole space
seemed to be safe and peaceful.
"The warriors sealed in these ruling crystals are our ancient predecessors. I have a n to ce them
in the ve Tower for the time being."
With the wave of his hands, Austin made twenty or more ruling crystals suddenly appear. After another
wave all the crystalnded in the battle ring.
Brady was surprised by the scene before his eyes. It was totally unexpected. Then he began to
carefully observe the ancient predecessors sealed in the ruling crystals.
''''They have been sealed in there for tens of thousands of years.
After such a long time, majority of their life sources have been consumed. It will not be long before they
truly pass away."
After observing it all for a short while, Brady spoke up.
Upon hearing that, Austin admired Brady even more. His spection and analysis of the man was
"Brady, do you know how we can save them?"
Austin asked.
Brady was also one of the powerful ancestors who had lived for tens of thousands of years. His power
was beyond any spection.
Thus, Austin thought he would know how to save those sealed ancestors.
"To save them is nearly impossible. Nothing can be done unless you have some exceptionally precious
herbs or elixirs,"
Brady said disapprovingly as he shook his head. He really wished there was an easier way to save
those sealed ancestors.
"What kind of herbs and elixirs will work in this case?"
Austin asked. He was curious and adamant as he was not willing to give up if there was the slightest
hope of saving them.
"Well, I believe the semi-omnipotent herb might do the job.
But there is only a 50-50 chance that it will work.
However, if you have the true omnipotent herb, the chance of sess will rise to one hundred percent.
Sadly, I have never seen even one of them. I guess it just exists in myths and legends.
As far as I know, even the semi-omnipotent herb is had to acquire. Getting the omnipotent herb is
beyond imagination.
So I said it''s almost impossible to save them."

Brady shrugged, dejected at the facts before them.
"The semi-omnipotent herb? Let me think."
Then, he suddenly remembered something and began to fumble in his Space Ring. Finally, he found
what he was looking for—a special herb.
Wreathed in white beams, the herb shone resplendently. On looking carefully at its surface, shadows of
dragons and snakes could be seen.
"I think I have one semi-omnipotent herb,"
Austin said excitedly.
He had found it at the tomb of the Purple Immortal. He wasn''t sure what it could do but he knew
whatever it was, it was something extraordinary.
For all this time he kept it with him and had not got the chance to use it earlier.
"It is really the semi-omnipotent herb!"
Brady grabbed the herb from Austin''s hands and observed carefully.
There was a sh of joy on his face. But it left as quickly it hade. ''''It can only be used to save one
ancestor.
And honestly, the odds are not very good that it''ll work."
Brady presented the sad truth.
"I also have one semi-omnipotent herb."
Saying those words, the old man took out the herb which looked identical to the previous one and
manipted it to fall into Brady''s hands.
"Oh! I did not see thating!"
Austin was quite surprised at the old man''s gesture.
''''Don''t get cocky, kid. The value of my treasure is not necessarily less than yours."
The old man curled his lips, expressing his dissatisfaction.
He was known as the Earth Hermit because his favorite hobby was to seek treasures and make
explorations. During his earlier years, he had robbed countless ancient tombs and collected countless
treasures.
"Now that we have two semi-omnipotent herbs, we can give it a try. Let''s see if we can save even one
of them.
I suggest we give the two herbs to only one of them. In that case, he is more likely to resuscitate.
Master, it depends on you now, to save them or not."
Brady uttered, smiling as he waited to hear Austin''s opinion.
''''Let''s try to save at least one of them."
Austin pointed towards the four ruling crystals in which were sealed the ancient predecessors of the
me Holy Land.
Considering the fact that only one predecessor could be saved, the top priority had to be given to the
ancestor of the me Holy Land.
"Fine! I''ll try my best to save one of them!"
Brady said calmly as he slightly nodded his head.
"As for the other ruling crystals, put them in the ve Tower. We can save the other ancestors when
we get the right opportunity,"
Austin instructed.
"Copy that, master."
Brady waved his sleeves and picked up all the ruling crystals.
"You are really a lucky guy to have Brady as your subordinate,"
the old man slowlymented.
"Do you think you can overwhelm Brady?"
Austin asked with curiosity.
''''If it had been some years ago, I would have been no match for him.
Now, as I have been cultivating the inheritance left by the Purple Immortal, my power is steadily
growing.
At present, my power might be enough to make me capable to challenge him.
Still, I have no confidence that I can defeat him. I would be satisfied if I end up in a draw with him,"
the old man confessed before Austin. He was quite clear about his strength being lesser than Brady.
His words amused Austin.
Though it was clear that the old man was as powerful as a holy lord, he wasn''t impulsive to
underestimate the other man.
In the East Maind, he was counted among the top-most masters in terms of power.
Brady was as powerful as him.
This meant that Brady would be able to handle the holy lords too.
''''It''s a pity that Brady is a guardian spirit and cannot leave the ve Tower.
With him standing by your side, I think you can do whatever you want and no one will dare to offend
you,"
the old man added.
''''Oh!
Do you mean to say that the guardian spirit can never leave the magic treasure?"
Austin felt a little disappointed, yet he was inquisitive and wanted to know the answer.
"Not necessarily! You are too weak now.
When your spiritual sense bes more powerful, you will be able to cast a special magic array in the
ve Tower.
After doing that, the guardian spirit will be allowed to temporarily leave the magic treasure and show up
in the outside world,"
the old man borated on the topic.
"Can you be more specific?
Like how powerful my spiritual sense force should be when I can do this?"
Austin asked as his curiosity rose to new levels.
"Well, at least the Major-perfection Realm!"
the Earth Hermit replied.
"The Major-perfection Realm?"
Austin was thrilled to know.
At present, his spiritual sense force was already beyond the Minor-perfection Realm.
And he was hopeful that it would not take him too long to reach the Major-perfection Realm.
"By the way, even if your spiritual sense reaches the Major-perfection Realm, it is still not enough.
From what I know, the only applicable method is to take advantage of the magic array. However, it has
been lost long time ago,"
the Earth Hermit continued, pointing out on the area of concern, as if he had read Austin''s thoughts.
"What? It has been lost?"
Upon hearing that, bitter disappointment filled Austin. Yet, he remained silent.
Several days passed by.
The news about the incident at the Northern Mine District spread everywhere.
Almost everyone got to know that the Earth Hermit and Austin were trapped by formidable opponents
and they were hiding in the Spiritual Tower.
The news soon reached the me Holy Land too.
"Our Holy Heritor is in danger! We have to set out to the Northern Mine District immediately to rescue
him!"
There was an angry and worried look on the face of Elder Brendan of the me Holy Land.
Austin was dered as the Holy Heritor of the me Holy Land. He wouldter be the holy lord.
His safety meant a lot for all the members of the me Holy Land.
Therefore, the three elders of the me Holy Land hurried to leave for the Northern Mine District. In
order to prepare themselves for whaty ahead, they also took their ultimate magical treasure with
them.
