Chu Muran stared blankly at Qin Ze and Shen Gongbao, her eyes filled with doubt and anxiety.

In her mind, she had suddenly become the owner of an ancient treasure, which surprised and bewildered her greatly.

She thought she had caused trouble.

However, Qin Ze quickly stepped forward with a reassuring smile on his face.

He gently patted Chu Muran's shoulder and said reassuringly, "It's alright, you didn't cause any trouble. On the contrary, you've become the master of the Demon-Revealing Mirror, which is a very remarkable thing!"

Shen Gongbao smiled and added softly, "Yes, little guy, you're very lucky. This is a powerful treasure that will be of great help to you in the future."

Qin Ze and Shen Gongbao continued their search within the temple, meticulously examining every corner. They searched diligently, but half a day passed without finding any treasure, leaving them somewhat frustrated.

Shen Gongbao gradually felt a sense of giving up. He turned to Qin Ze and said, "Perhaps there really is nothing we want here. Let's go to the Tushita Palace instead."

Qin Ze agreed, and the three of them then went to the Doushuai Palace, which was the temple of Laozi.

The Divine Palace of Tushita is situated atop a mountain shrouded in mist and clouds, surrounded by ethereal celestial clouds, resembling a fairyland suspended in the clouds. A magnificent palace stands atop the mountain, its building materials seemingly formed from condensed clouds, emitting a soft white light that makes the entire palace appear as if constructed from clouds and dreamlike materials.

The outer walls of the Tushita Palace are decorated with exquisite jade carvings depicting scenes of immortals ascending to heaven. Each carving exudes a mysterious and ethereal aura, creating a dreamlike atmosphere. The palace roof is covered with golden glazed tiles, which reflect dazzling light when sunlight shines on them, making it resemble a glittering celestial palace.

In front of the main gate stands a magnificent stone bridge, adorned with flowers and magical herbs, making one feel as if stepping into a fairyland. On either side of the bridge are verdant lawns, scattered with exotic flowers that exude a captivating fragrance. A clear stream flows gently, its waters crystal clear, like a spring from the heavens.

Upon entering the interior of the Tushita Palace, you will be awestruck by its magnificent hall. A huge crystal chandelier hangs in the hall, illuminating the entire space, its light casting colorful shadows on the floor. In the center of the hall stands an exquisitely carved altar, upon which rests a shrine embroidered with gold thread, enshrining a statue of Laozi (Taishang Laojun), solemn and dignified, as if it possessed life.

Shen Gongbao's gaze fell upon a portrait of Laozi, and she bowed respectfully. Her actions were full of piety, as if she were expressing gratitude and respect to her most revered deity.

However, Qin Ze's voice suddenly rang out in the hall: "They plotted against you, and you still worship him?" Qin Ze's tone was full of doubt and confusion.

Shen Gongbao slightly raised her head, her gaze enigmatic and profound, seemingly concealing many untold stories. She replied to Qin Ze, "You don't understand..."

Qin Ze shook his head. Forget it, it's not his business, and he doesn't want to get involved.

Shen Gongbao respectfully bowed to the portrait of Laozi, then turned to Qin Ze and spoke. Her voice was deep and authoritative: "Laozi possesses many treasures, but only five are truly the most valuable offerings: the Seven-Star Sword, the Banana Leaf Fan, the Jade Purification Bottle, the Purple-Gold Gourd, and the Vajra Bracelet!"

Qin Ze naturally recognized these five treasures; each possessed different mysterious powers in the legends of the Immortal Realm. Now, Shen Gongbao walked towards the display stand inside the Doushuai Palace, where these five treasures were conveniently displayed.

First, there is the Seven Star Sword, inlaid with seven gemstones, each representing one of the seven stars of the Big Dipper, and each gemstone shines brilliantly. The surface of the sword is adorned with exquisite patterns, resembling a band of light from the Milky Way, captivating the eye and soul.

Banana leaf fan:

The fan surface of the banana leaf fan is made from a huge banana leaf, painted with exquisite landscape patterns, making the mountains and rivers seem to come alive. The handle is woven from gold thread, making it gorgeous and dazzling, and the edges of the fan are decorated with jewels and jade, making it radiant.

Jade Vase:

The jade bottle is a translucent jade bottle filled with clear water, which ripples gently as if it were flowing water. The mouth of the bottle is carved with delicate crane and lotus patterns, and the bottle exudes an atmosphere of tranquility and purity.

Purple Gold Gourd:

The Purple-Gold Gourd is a glittering, gourd-shaped treasure covered in purple veins, radiating a mysterious purple glow. The gourd lid is inlaid with gemstones, and at its center is a bright amethyst, shining like a star.

Diamond Bracelet:

The diamond bracelet is a hard bracelet made entirely of diamond, with a smooth, mirror-like surface. It exudes a resilient and unyielding spirit, and the bangle opening is inlaid with a gemstone that shimmers with dazzling golden light.

Qin Ze stood inside the Tushita Palace, his gaze captivated by the five precious artifacts, each radiating a mysterious light, as if telling its own story. His hand involuntarily reached out towards these treasures, yearning to personally experience their magical power. However, just as his hand was about to touch them, Shen Gongbao's voice rang out, loud and resolute: "Wait!"

Qin Ze paused, his expression full of confusion. Why did he have to wait?

Shen Gongbao explained, "This treasure is protected by powerful restrictions. Touching it rashly will result in injury from the backlash of these restrictions!" Her tone was serious, and her eyes revealed a sense of vigilance.

Shen Gongbao didn't intend to let Qin Ze act rashly. She suddenly drew a spirit sword, gripped it tightly, and hurled it at the five treasures. Qin Ze watched in disbelief as the five treasures emitted a blinding divine light, like five bolts of lightning, instantly shattering the spirit sword. Sword fragments scattered on the ground with a crisp sound, and then the divine light of the treasures gradually subsided.
