Ning Tao could not eat the incomplete Ancestor-seeking Elixir, but he could smell it.

He simply put the Ancestor-seeking Elixir to his nose, and made a deep sniff.

Boom!

He felt something was waking up in his body again, and the intensity climbed quickly. Then his eyes warmed up again, and he saw Xuan Tianzi.

However, he was in a different position and action. This time he stood at the stone table, his right arm slightly raised, as if to take the teapot at the stone table and make himself a cup of tea. But he was clearly still, like a clear shadow lingering in the void.

Ning Tao also noticed a detail—the stone table was actually empty, with no teapot or teacup, but he clearly saw a teapot and a teacup. It made him realize that in this strange state he could see not only people but also objects.

This sudden detail gave him a wild guess. "If I go to Xianyang, will I see the First Emperor of Qin?"

If he could see the First Emperor of Qin, he would see Emperor Xuanzong of Tang and Lady Yang... He could see different historical figures in different places. In this state, he had the potential to unlock the hidden mysteries of history, as well as the mysteries that plagued historians. To see how the pyramids were built in Egypt, he only needed to take out the elixir and smell it. He could also see a picture of oblivion in history. In this way, there was no mystery.

In order to verify this possibility, Ning Tao made a more radical decision. He woke up his nose to make it enter the state of smelling. In a flash the smell of the incomplete Ancestor-seeking Elixir flooded into his nostrils, with Jiang Hao, Lin Qingyu and Su Ya smelling so strong that he felt embarrassed!

He suddenly felt the heat of his eyes intensified, and he could not help groaning, and closed his eyes. It was two seconds before he opened his eyes again. He saw Xuan Tianzi reappear in front of the bookshelf.

Xuan Tianzi seemed to be trying to get a book, but he was still, not making a series of motions like the characters in the movie.

Ning Tao stared at him, for fear of missing any details.

Suddenly, Xuan Tianzi's hand seemed to make a move.

Excited, Ning Tao yelled in his heart, "Get a book! Get a book! Get one!"

But Xuan Tianzi's hand no longer moved and the movement was so slight that it might be an illusion. Ning Tao's reaction was like that of a child who believed in the existence of a sheep village.

This time, Xuan Tianzi's image appeared for about four or five seconds, and then evaporated like water vapor, leaving nothing behind.

Gradually, Ning Tao calmed down and had new thoughts in his mind. "The Ancestor-seeking Elixir developed by Lin Qinghua turned himself into a new demon and allowed him to have the faces of ancient people. This shows that his DNA is indeed awakened and owns real demon power. Otherwise, he could not have Zhou Yu's face. The Ancestor-seeking Elixir I refined is obviously stronger. By smelling it, it exerts such a magical and powerful effect. What will it do if I eat it?"


He once again had the desire to eat the Ancestor-seeking Elixir.

"Ha, ha, you're like the Ring in the Lord of the Rings. Do you take me as Gollum? I'm not... Hee hee..." As soon as the neurotic laughter came out, Ning Tao suddenly covered his own mouth, and his eyes dilated, wide and round like husky's.

Two seconds later, he suddenly rushed to his small medicine chest, and stuffed the incomplete Ancestor-seeking Elixir into a porcelain vase. The aurora-like elixir light was gone, and so was the mysterious and complex elixir odor. Ning Tao was "normal" again.

A few minutes later Ning Tao went back to the Sky Clinic.

The human face on the good-evil tripod did not even open its eyes, but the smoke changed into black and white energy of good and evil. Other than that, it didn't react at all.

Ning Tao didn't even leave anything in the clinic, strode to the door, opened it and walked out.

It was not yet dark. In the deepening shades of dusk, a man stood on Garden Street. It was Yin Molan. He was dressed in black leather, full of strange metal ornaments, and a thick chain hanging from the belt, which was standard motorcyclist attire.

Ning Tao paused and asked, "Aren't you hot, Senior Yin?"

Yin Molan shook his head and walked toward the Sky Clinic, but stopped short. The closer he was to the Sky Clinic, the more nervous and uncomfortable he felt.

Ning Tao went down the steps to Yin Molan. He was in a hurry to go out, and actually he wanted to go to Qing Zhui's cave and ask her to sniff the incomplete Ancestor-seeking Elixir. He did not expect Yin Molan to be here waiting for him. But he could understand Yin Molan's feelings. It cost Yin Molan so much effort that he couldn't wait for Ning Tao to refine outside the Sky Clinic.

"Did you find those three spiritual materials?" Yin Molan asked.

Ning Tao said, "If I don't refine an Ancestor-seeking Elixir, are you gonna be here all the time?"

"Sure, I have nothing to do anyway," Yin Molan said.

Speechless, Ning Tao waved his hand and turned to walk toward the woods behind the Sky Clinic.

Although Garden Street was deserted, it was not suitable for talking about things.

Yin Molan followed Ning Tao to the woods behind the clinic and said, "Can you say now?"

Ning Tao kept walking and replied, "Let's go to Qing Zhui's place."

Yin Molan said warily, "Are you going to burn bridges? I tell you, we've smeared the mouth with blood and swore fidelity!"

Ning Tao turned back and smiled, saying, "The imperial guard of the Ming Dynasty is kind of like today's special agent. Were your peers like you?"

"What do you mean?"

"Suspecting everyone is bad, and always act carefully," Ning Tao said.

Yin Molan stepped over to Ning Tao and said, "If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't show you the elixir prescription and give you the spiritual material. But to believe is one thing, and to be careful is another. Tang Tianren died because of you. It's normal for me to guard you."

"Well, you're right. We'll talk while walking." Ning Tao went on to Qing Zhui's cave.

Yin Molan followed Ning Tao, but he was still very careful.

Ning Tao said, "Senior Yin, to be honest, I've made the Ancestor-seeking Elixir."

"Ah?" Yin Molan gasped, and then exclaimed, "Let me see it!"

Ning Tao said, "No rush. You'll see it minutes later."

They soon arrived at Qing Zhui's cave. Before Ning Tao could say a word, waves of hissing sounds came from the woods and grass on both sides of the cave, and then snakes of different sizes crawled out. If Ning Tao was here alone, the snakes would have backed away, but this time they didn't. Yin Molan was a strange presence to them as well as a target to attack.

Ning Tao called out, "Qing Zhui, are you at home?"

"Yes, I haven't slept yet. Come in." Qing Zhui's voice was soft and she seemed to be in bed.

Ning Tao said, "I came with Senior Yin."

A few minutes later Qing Zhui came out of the cave, her hair a little messy. Apparently she had just got out of bed. Seeing each other, the two demon's eyes were full of vigilance.

Ning Tao opened the medicine chest, took out a porcelain vase, and then unplugged it. As it was dim in the mountain, a little bit of misty green elixir light was immediately emitted from the porcelain vase. And then the mysterious and complex elixir odor quickly enveloped the space where the three were.

"Elixir light!" cried Yin Molan excitedly, reaching out and grabbing the porcelain vase in Ning Tao's hand.

"Hiss!" Qing Zhui stuck out her nails and tried to cut Yin Molan's wrist.

Yin Molan scrambled back.

Ning Tao said, "Qing Zhui, don't do that. The elixir is for Senior Yin."

Qing Zhui took back her nails.

Yin Molan did not mind what Qing Zhui did just now, but stared at the porcelain vase in Ning Tao's hand, his eyes full of excitement and greed.

Ning Tao said, "Senior Yin, I'm a man of honor. I promised to refine elixir for you, I will give you this elixir. But I used extremely precious spiritual materials to make this Ancestor-seeking Elixir. The cost is huge, so before giving you the Ancestor-seeking Elixir, I would like to ask you to do me a favor. That's a little compensation for me."

Without hesitation, Yin Molan asked, "What do you want me to do for you?"

Ning Tao replied, "You're an imperial guard of the Ming Dynasty, kind of a senior special agent. I want you to investigate three people for me."

"No problem. Who are the three people you want me to investigate?" Yin Molan asked eagerly.

Ning Tao answered, "Shinsuke Takeda from Takeda Biopharmaceutical Company in Japan, his son Tamao Takeda, and Crewe Arthur from the UK. The three are now at the Japanese consulate. You have my elixir and go there tonight."

"No problem," Yin Molan agreed immediately.

Then Ning Tao threw the vase to him.

Yin Molan reached out his hand and grasped the porcelain vase. Then he tilted the mouth of the vase, and the crystal clear incomplete Ancestor-seeking Elixir rolled from the mouth into his hand. The misty green elixir light wrapped around his palm, and the mysterious and complex elixir odor became more intense. His eyes changed in a flash, full of excitement and greed.

Ning Tao stared at Yin Molan closely, watching all his changes. The reason that he took Yin Molan to Qing Zhui's place to give him the incomplete Ancestor-seeking Elixir was, in fact, to observe Yin Molan's changes after he got the Ancestor-seeking Elixir. With Qing Zhui's presence, he had extra security even if Yin Molan went crazy.

"Elixir light! I didn't expect you, such a young cultivating doctor, to refine elixir with elixir light. Do you know, even in the magic ancient age when cultivation was popular and there were many talents, very few practitioners could produce elixir light!" Yin Molan's voice trembled with excitement.

Ning Tao said politely, "Senior Yin, you flatter me. I happen to have a talent for it."

Yin Molan suddenly put the Ancestor-seeking Elixir in his mouth and swallowed it.

Ning Tao frowned, thinking, "What a brave guinea pig you are! I don't even know what the hell I made. You ate it. If you get poisoned, don't blame me."
