Controlling the Five Thunders and the Two Worlds

Chapter 155 Storage Treasure
Half a day later, everyone gathered again in the main hall of the Stone King Cave.

Besides each person gaining their own evil energy, dozens of people captured from the foot of the mountain by the Stone King Cave were gathered in the hall, looking at them with a mixture of fear and hope.

"Two boxes of gold and silver jewelry."

Yunyang stacked the second box on top of the first box, opened the lid, and revealed some gold and silver ingots, jewelry, jade ornaments, and so on inside.

"Several weapons and magical artifacts."

Master Yihong was carrying a bundle containing weapons and magical artifacts imbued with corpse energy and yin energy. These would have no effect on them, but they would still be quite harmful to ordinary people.

"Two very unusual items, they seem to be used to forge magical artifacts?"

Master Yansong held two objects that looked like metal in his hands and said as he walked, "I can sense that there is some kind of power in them, but I don't know what it is for."

"Is it made of the same material as this copper kettle?"

Master Mingyu walked in carrying a palm-sized copper pot, and in his left hand he was holding a copper bottle, the very bottle from which Rong Wen had released a large amount of poison gas.

Master Yansong took the bronze pot, his eyes lighting up. "It really is the same. What is this?"

As he spoke, he opened the copper kettle. Master Mingyu tried to stop him, but it was too late. "Be careful, it's..."

The next moment, a chilling, sinister aura surged out of the copper pot, making Daoist Yansong shiver and hurriedly put the lid back on.

"what is this?"

"Behind the Stone King Cave, nestled among the mountains, lies an ancient battlefield with poor feng shui. Tens of thousands of corpses are buried underground, and over the years, this has fermented into a yin and evil place spanning several miles."

"This chilling aura was taken from the ancient battlefield?"

“That’s right. I found this bronze pot in the Stone King’s bedroom. It’s full of cold, malevolent energy. He must have used it to practice his skills.”

After they finished speaking, they turned their gaze to the bronze pot in Master Mingyu's hand. Of course, they were not looking at the cold aura emanating from the pot, but at the pot itself.

"Such a small bronze pot shouldn't be able to hold much cold energy, and he didn't see all of this energy condense into a solid," Daoist Yansong said meaningfully.

"Even if it solidifies, it can't hold too much," Master Mingyu said with a smile.

"I remember that poisonous corpse just now released a lot of poisonous gas from that small copper bottle?" Yun Yang asked.

"That's right." Master Mingyu nodded. "Did you think of something?"

Yun Yang's eyes lit up, "The Azure Mirage Bottle?"

Daoist Yihong and Daoist Yansong both said in unison, "A world within a pot."

“Indeed, it is a world within a pot.” Daoist Mingyu nodded and said to Yunyang, “You’re right about the Azure Mirage Bottle, because these two bottles can only hold gases and liquids, not other things.”

"Why?" Gu Zhao asked. "If it's a storage magic item, shouldn't it be able to hold anything?"

"Because their refining techniques are too crude." Master Mingyu weighed the copper pot in his hand. "The space inside is indeed quite large, but it can't fit at the entrance!"

Everyone, "..."

"Do you have a solution?" Yun Yang asked.

“Let’s go back and give it a try.” Daoist Mingyu nodded, very confidently. “If Senior Brother Yansong could refine that tortoise shell, this thing should be about the same.”

Master Yihong smiled and nodded, "Let's go back and try it. If we can refine it into a storage magic treasure, that will be very convenient." Master Yansong looked at the two pieces of material of the same type in his hand, "Not bad, not bad. Maybe we can each have one."

Master Mingyu put away the copper pot and copper bottle, and then took out two books. "These are the Stone King's cultivation methods, one is a corpse refining technique, and the other is a cultivation method for condensing Yin energy. We can't use them, but we can put them in the scripture pavilion as spoils of war."

Gu Zhao laughed, "Last time we got a book called 'Crimson Fiend Corpse Refining Technique,' and later we got a soul-extracting spell at Three Absolutes Mountain. Now we have a new addition to our collection."

Master Yihong shook his head, "None of them are good methods."

After summarizing the unexpected gains, Gu Zhao gathered the people in Shiwang Cave together, distributed a box of jewels to them, and then led them down the mountain to the nearest official road, sending them home.

……

On the way home, Master Yihong asked, "Can we add more new members?"

Gu Zhao nodded and held up one finger. "The Stone King's evil deeds were ultimately not as numerous as those of the Three Absolutes Mountain. Even with the poisonous corpse from the Boundless Cave, he only managed to condense one Thunder Seed."

The old Taoist priests all nodded, without affecting Gu Zhao's choice of who to pick up.

Only Yun Yang said, "My martial uncle can be taken last. He's not that old, and he's in great health. He can wait."

Gu Zhao gave a thumbs up, "You're so filial. I hope he won't hit you when he gets here."

Yun Yang raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Back then, he couldn't beat me!"

That's what they say, but Yun Yang actually had a lot of confidence in his martial uncle and had no doubt that his martial uncle wouldn't trigger the lightning seed.

"Let's go back first. We also eliminated a poisonous corpse this time, so the gains are considerable." Gu Zhao felt the feedback from the Five Thunder Token in his sea of ​​consciousness. "After digesting this gain, it's time to deal with the Golden Wind Sect."

Master Yihong narrowed his eyes, already sensing the stirring of magical power within his body.

Master Mingyu glanced at Master Yihong, then looked south, which was the direction of Baishi Mansion.

With special materials in one hand and a copper pot in the other, Daoist Yansong began to study the refining of storage magic treasures, using his magical power to probe and his divine sense to sense them.

From Tsunano Prefecture, through Itsuka Prefecture, to Hidetake Prefecture.

The group possessed profound Taoist skills. Although they could not fly, they could traverse mountains and forests with incredible speed. They returned to the Daluo Palace the next day, put the gold and silver into the vault, placed the weapons and magical artifacts into the storage room, and put the books into the scripture pavilion.

"Finally, I can rest for a few days."

After everyone had a meal together, Gu Zhao and Zhuo Qingyan took a walk. Then Gu Zhao gathered a few Taoist priests together and said, "I haven't been back for several days. If I don't go back soon, I'll become a missing person. Who wants to go back?"

"We're not going back." The Taoist priests shook their heads in unison.

Daoist Yansong, Daoist Yihong, and Daoist Mingyu had already given instructions that there was no need to report that he was safe. Yun Yang wished he could stay here 24 hours a day. Even without the aid of evil energy, the efficiency of his breathing exercises was actually quite high.

So Gu Zhao used the excuse of seclusion to travel through time in the quiet room of the Daluo Palace.

Having been away for several days, Gu Zhao's phone was out of battery. He charged it for a while, then turned it on and saw various notification boxes popping up on the screen.

"Hmm?" Gu Zhao raised an eyebrow. "So Siam really does have sorcerers!"

He saw the messages from Xiao Ya and Jiang Shishi, as well as the missed call from Wang Runheng, and realized that it had been three days since then. According to the latest news, both women had already returned to Guangzhou.

Looking at their comments and their WeChat Moments, Gu Zhao discovered that they had a concert tonight, as well as a ticket that they routinely sent him.
