The two main industries of the Tower of Dusk were the forging industry and the pharmaceutics industry. However, although the forging workshop was placed outside, the preparation of potions was still carried out in the tower. Besides, Wilkinson and the other pharmacists also lived in the tower. After all, compared to the blacksmiths, the pharmacists were still more valuable, and the potion formulas also had to be kept a stricter confidentiality.
However, with the rise of the status of the Tower of Dusk, and Lin Li had stepped into the Sanctuary-realm, he believed that no one would dare to covet the pharmacists even if he moved the preparation of potions out of the tower.
After visiting the surrounding buildings of the Tower of Dusk, Lin Li did not bring Chris back to the Tower of Dusk. Instead, he brought him to the back of the Tower of Dusk, where there was an elegant garden. There were some trees and flowers planted here, but in the most central position, there was a seedling with only two tender leaves. This surprised Chris quite a bit.
"I didn't expect you to have already resurrected the Seed of Eternity!" Looking at the fragile seedling and sensing its vibrant aura, Chris couldn't help but sigh in amazement.
The fact that Lin Li had obtained a dead Seed of Eternity from the Sky Castle was basically no longer a secret. Since the Supreme Council decided to make him a councilor, they naturally had a very detailed understanding of his matters. However, the resurrection of the Seed of Eternity was an accident in the big crack of the Eternal Darkness Altar during the battle with the Flame Dragon Lothar. That was not something that ordinary people could understand.
The Tree of Eternity gave birth to the High Elves who ruled Anril. At the same time, it was also responsible for maintaining the balance of the Laws of Anril. Hence, it was also known as the World Tree. The power and value of the Tree of Eternity had already exceeded the scope of any artifact or treasure. Hence, after Lin Li resurrected the Seed of Eternity, he did not immediately plant it, and instead waited until he stepped into the Sanctuary-realm.
The current Tree of Eternity was still just a seedling, and all its power had been used for its own growth. Hence, it did not emit the majestic aura of life. Otherwise, Chris would have discovered its existence when he first arrived. Besides, Lin Li also set up a series of mageweaths around the seedling, one to prevent the leakage of life aura, and the other to protect it from being trampled by anything.
The seedling with only two tender leaves seemed inconspicuous, but the benefits that the Tree of Eternity would bring to the Tower of Dusk would definitely be unimaginable.
The most direct benefit was that under the power of the Tree of Eternity, the talents of the mages would be greatly improved. This was different from increasing one's strength. A person's talent was usually determined from birth, and it was something that external forces could not change. If a person was talented enough to become an Archmage, it would be impossible for him to step into the Legendary-realm no matter how hard he worked. For example, when Gerian reached the peak of level-19, his talent had already reached its limit. Even with the help of the various superior conditions of the Tower of Dusk, he still couldn't take that step.
If Gerian's body could be baptized by the power of the Tree of Eternity, his talent would gradually be strengthened. When his talent reached the standard of the Legendary-realm, he would naturally step into the Legendary-realm.
Of course, Lin Li had no idea when the Tree of Eternity would be able to grow. After all, it was not an ordinary tree, and God knew how long its growth cycle would be. It was possible that it would take 100 to 200 years, or even 1,000 to 2,000 years.
After talking to Chris about the Tree of Eternity, Lin Li brought him back to the Tower of Dusk, and then introduced some of the settings in the Tower of Dusk, such as the All-Kill Array.
Finally, Lin Li brought Chris to the top of the Tower of Dusk, where the Eternal Furnace was located. The Eternal Furnace was not a secret, but Lin Li did not open the Ice and Fire Nature Magical Domain. It was not that he didn't trust Chris, but rather that it would involve the debris of the stars, Polar Snow and Raging Flames, which would be difficult to explain.
After visiting the Tower of Dusk, Lin Li did not waste any time in the 10 days before the regular meeting of the Supreme Council. He asked Chris about some of his experiences in the Sanctuary-realm, as well as some old secrets about the Supreme Council during the Dark Age.
Although Lin Li had the Book of Eternity, which recorded Geresco's experiences in the Sanctuary-realm, there was still a difference between teaching him face-to-face. Besides, everyone had different opinions about the mastery of the power of the Sanctuary-realm. After all, not everyone chose the same path.
Chris really liked Lin Li. Hence, he answered all the questions that Lin Li asked without reservation, and earnestly imparted the valuable experience that he had gained in the Sanctuary-realm to Lin Li.
The fact that Chris could stand at the peak of the Sanctuary-realm showed that the path that he had chosen was also a path that led to the highest point, even though it was different from Geresco's. Hence, every bit of experience that he gained along the way was of great value to Lin Li, who had the Book of Eternity.
10 days passed in a flash, and Lin Li learned a lot from Arbitrator Chris. Although it was impossible for him to rise to level-26 all of a sudden, his realm had become more stable, and he had a clearer understanding of the power of the Sanctuary-realm. In terms of power, 10 days couldn't change much, but Lin Li could feel that his combat power had definitely improved greatly.
It was finally the day for the regular meeting of the Supreme Council, and Lin Li followed Chris to the Tower of Dusk. After taking two steps, Chris stopped, and when Lin Li was puzzled, he chanted a few short spells in a low voice. As he chanted the spell, the space in front of them suddenly became distorted, and a magic door that was emitting a soft light appeared out of thin air.
"Let's go." Chris turned his head and said to Lin Li before stepping into the magic door, causing a faint ripple like a stone falling into the water.
Seeing that Chris' figure had disappeared into the magic door, Lin Li did not hesitate at all, and simply followed him in a few steps. When he entered the magic door, Lin Li subconsciously closed his eyes, but when he opened his eyes, the scene in front of him was already completely different.
The scene in front of him gave Lin Li a familiar feeling, and he seemed to have seen a trace of the Tower of Dusk in it. It seemed to be a city, but the rows of buildings didn't seem to be very neat. However, there seemed to be some kind of rule in them, and the road in the middle of the buildings was not straight, either. Instead, there were some seemingly unreasonable turns.
Lin Li glanced at the edge of the city, only to suddenly discover that there was a surging sea of clouds outside the city. Was this city not built on the ground, but a Sky Castle?
"This is the location of the Supreme Council. We call it the Sky Garden," Chris said with a smile. He did not rush Lin Li, and instead introduced it to him.
"The Sky Garden, the sky!" Lin Li finally remembered why there seemed to be a trace of the Tower of Dusk here. It was because the Tower of Dusk had been designed according to the layout of the Sky Castle. Judging from the layout of the environment of the Sky Garden now, it was obviously related to the Sky Castle.
However, Lin Li remembered that during the war at the end of the Dark Age, Geresco had led the rebels to destroy six Sky Castles of the High Elves, and only the last one escaped into the spacetime rift. Lin Li had already gone to the last Sky Castle through the Teleportation Portal in the Haiga Mountain Range, and it was now occupied by the powerful Ghost and countless Undead creatures.
In that case, could it be that the so-called Sky Garden in front of him was built by the Supreme Council based on the Sky Castle? If that was the case, Lin Li felt that the Supreme Council was going to be even more powerful and terrifying.
Since the Dark Age, there had been plenty of people who wanted to rebuild the Sky Castle. Some of them were just fantasizing about it in theory, while others had put it into action. For example, Highlord Osric's Eternal Furnace was built based on the Sky Castle. However, even if it was completed, there was still a huge gap between it and the real Sky Castle.
There was also the Dawn Cathedral where the pope of the Brilliance Shrine lived. Although it had always been located on the Holy Mountain, it actually had the ability to fly, but it was far inferior to the Sky Castle. The Eternal Darkness Altar of the Darkness Shrine was actually something similar to the foundation of the Sky Castle. However, the Darkness Shrine had suffered a series of disasters, and the construction of the Eternal Darkness Altar was far from being completed.
Lin Li knew that the Supreme Council had a Sky Tower that had once appeared in the Shadowglen to suppress the entrance of Osric's mausoleum. It was already quite close to the Eternal Furnace in all aspects, but it was still far from the Sky Castle. At that time, Lin Li felt that the Sky Tower might be a replica of the Sky Castle by the Supreme Council.
However, looking at the place called the Sky Garden in front of him now, Lin Li secretly compared it with the Sky Castle in his memory. In the end, he realized that he couldn't tell which was better and which was worse for a while.
"Is this where the Supreme Council is located?" Lin Li, who was in shock, murmured subconsciously.
"Yes, it's here, the Sky Garden that floats above Anril. In addition to some councilors who live here, there are also mages who belong to the Supreme Council, most of whom are descendants of the mages who participated in the war back then. " Chris was not surprised by Lin Li's performance. In fact, every mage who came to the Sky Garden for the first time would not be much better than Lin Li.
Lin Li suppressed his agitated emotions a little, and turned to ask Chris, "The Sky Garden was built based on the Sky Castle of the High Elves, right? I always thought that the Sky Castle could not be replicated, but I didn't expect the Supreme Council to have already done it long ago. "
Although the six Sky Castles that the High Elves had fallen during the war at the end of the Dark Age would definitely have left behind a large number of construction materials that could be used. However, in order to use those materials to rebuild a Sky Castle, there would still be extremely high requirements for the technology in various fields. In this era where a large number of technologies had been lost, it also meant that it was almost impossible to complete. That was the reason why Lin Li was shocked, and not because of the majesty of the Sky Garden.
Hearing Lin Li's question, Chris also understood that Lin Li's shock was different from his own. Hence, he chuckled, and said, "No, I think you think so because of those legends. It's said that during that war, the rebellion army, led by Geresco, destroyed the six Sky Castles of the High Elves. Actually, that legend is not accurate. "
"What?" Lin Li couldn't help but look surprised again.
Actually, that legend could not be considered a legend, but a real historical event. In fact, after the war ended, people did find the ruins of the six Sky Castles in several major battlefields on the mainland. Besides, the division of the wealth in the ruins of the Sky Castles led to the division of the Alliance Army.
"Actually, one of the ruins of the six Sky Castles was a semi-finished product that the High Elves were building, and did not participate in the war at all. Of the six Sky Castles that really participated in the war, five were actually destroyed, and the remaining Sky Castle was completely captured by Geresco, which is the Sky Garden in front of us. " While taking Lin Li on a tour around the city, Chris told Lin Li about the war and the origin of the Sky Garden without a trace of impatience in his tone.
As they toured the Sky Garden, Lin Li gradually saw that the Sky Garden indeed had a lot of traces of the Sky Castles, such as the use of materials and the basic structure of the buildings. However, the entire Sky Garden looked very different from the Sky Castles. Clearly, it had been greatly modified.
When the Immortal King built the Sky Castles, he designed them for the High Elves. Although humans could also use them directly, there would definitely be various inconveniences in the process of using them. Now, Lin Li could tell that the Sky Garden had been modified to be completely suitable for human control.
The Sky Castle that had escaped into the spacetime rift was said to be the most powerful of the seven Sky Castles. Lin Li had once ascended to the Seventh Sky Castle, and had also studied the information about the other six Sky Castles. Hence, he could basically confirm that. However, the Sky Garden in front of him was actually not inferior to the Seventh Sky Castle after being modified by Geresco, the God of Mages, and gradually improved by the Supreme Council for thousands of years.
In fact, the power of the Seventh Sky Castle lay in the power system that it used. It had drifted in the spacetime rift for thousands of years, and endured the baptism of the Nether Storm for thousands of years. However, the power of its protection did not weaken at all, which was enough to prove the power of its power system.
