The Ruler
77. Opening the Gold Chest.
Outside the Cave.
Several groups of youths from the god clan that existed in the northern border region , who were looking for resources in the Ice Flower mountain region, came out from their shelters.
" It seems the battle is over. We better get going..."
" Good..."
" A terrible battle. I'm sure they're high-level semi-immortals."
" Right, 'cause we don't even know the exact location of the battle."
" Once it is, we better get away from this place immediately." Hurry up to leave the place.
***
Inside the stomach of the Ice Flower mountain.
Qing Ruo and his entourage recuperated within the sky pool, absorbing the mountain's golden power to the extreme.
An hour later, Qing Ruo then opened her eyes as she felt the spiritual power of the sky pond disappear.
" Sister," said Heian Bai and Dalu Rong who had also opened his eyes looking at Qing Ruo who looked puzzled.
Suddenly they laughed, startling Hua Zhen, Hua Zun, Hua Thong and Murong Jianyu who were concentrating on recovering themselves.
" Boy Brother, what's wrong?" murong Jianyu asked curiously.
" Brother Jianyu, the spiritual power of this celestial pond has been absorbed, are you unaware of it?" While holding back laughter.
Suddenly Hua Zun and his entourage laughed, realizing their stupidity, making the room filled with laughter.
" This celestial pool had lost a lot of its power after being used by Dong He, and the two silver twin dragons. Especially after being absorbed by all of us," Heian Bai said.
" Alright, it looks like we can't absorb the pure power of heaven and earth" Hua Thong said, leaving the sky pool and sitting on a chunk of rock inside the cave, then follow the others.
After everyone exited the sky pond, Qing Ruo calmly took out the loot from within her storage ring, which she had obtained from inside the tomb earlier.
" Swhus.." a golden coffin, spirit-controlling black staff, fire chains, and fog discs that were fourth-rate semi-immortal weapons, appeared before them.
" This is a resource that was inside the sand tomb before," Qing Ruo explained.
Hua Zun and Hua Zhen looked at each other.
" Young ruler, this is the main weapon, Yin Sha, the first son of patriarch Shen Guoshi Yin Du," Hua Zun said, leaving Qing Ruo and his entourage speechless.
" Let's check it out" Hua Zhen said.
" Alright," Qing Ruo replied as she made a hand seal, enveloping the sufficiently wide golden chest with a transparent shield, making Hua Zhen so astonished.
" The figure that was inside this golden chest was an important person of the Yin clan, the controller of dark power and poison. The young ruler's action is to prevent something unwanted" Hua Thong explained.
Before them, Qing Ruo calmly continued to work, removing the seal that locked the golden chest.
Not long after.
" Srark..." The casket cover slowly opened. Releasing the bluish black fog.
" Black fog, metal-grade poison," Hua Zun said with a shuddering body.
" It was a knife used by the young ruler earlier." Murong Jianyu. It even made Hua Zhen shudder.
" Let's wait until all the poison power is removed" he said, also while waiting.
" Alright," Hua Zhen and Murong Jianyu replied, while taking out all the spirit gems of the ferocious beasts they had obtained inside the tomb.
" What exactly does the Yin clan want from this figure." said Dalu Rong curiously.
" right. They even dared to make trouble with the imperial side," Heian Bai said.
" I'm sure this figure of Yin Sha must be keeping their clan's secrets," Hua Zun said.
" The elder is right," Qing Ruo said.
Not long after, all the black poison power that came out from inside the chest was absorbed.
" Swhus..." The black blade shot out from the transparent shield, approaching Qing Ruo.
" Alright, let's check," Qing Ruo said after storing the black blade into her storage ring.
" Swhus..." The transparent shield that enveloped the golden coffin vanished, slowly, casting a stinging stench.
Immediately Qing Ruo and his entourage circulated their respective strengths, protecting themselves from the extremely pungent smell.
" It turns out that the stench we smelled inside the passage of the previous tomb came from this coffin" Heian Bai said.
" Right, but that's the question. Who made that tomb." said Dalu Rong, making them gasp.
" Of course the figure inside this coffin," Qing Ruo said, taking out the copper gasing from within his storage ring, and began to suck out the stench that was all over the room.
" Even such a strange thing is on him..." Heian Bai shook his head, eating Qing Ruo who was controlling the copper gasing absorbed the foul scent.
Two minutes later, after the stench in the room disappeared, they approached the golden coffin together.
" Swhus...." Three golden balls as big as the thumb of an adult hand appeared, floating above the golden chest, shocking all of them.
" it!" qing Ruo said as he grabbed the three golden balls, and handed them to Murong Jianyu, then checked the figure inside the chest.
" Older," Qing Ruo said asking Hua Zun and Hua Thong to examine the figure inside the golden coffin.
" The truth is Yin Sha, Yin Huo, and Yin Wu" Hua Zun said with a astonished face, staring at the three figures who had still not experienced the decay.
" Older please explain" Heian Bai said with a serious face.
" These three figures are important people who are the pillars of Shen Guoshi Yin's strength. Yin Sha the first son, Yin Huo the third son, and Yin Wu the eighth son. Based on the aura of their god soul pearls, these three figures were already at the semi-immortal level of the late sixth stage." Hua Zun explained, making Qing Ruo and his entourage surprised.
" What an incredible loss. No wonder there are many protective animals that guard it," said Dalu Rong.
Qing Ruo who had gotten a bit of information from the poisonous silver centipede who said that the figure inside the crate had been killed by their clan members, did not pay much attention to Dalu Rong's response, not paying much attention to Dalu Rong's response, because he was more focused on the reason of the actions of the Yin clan that eliminated the pillars of their clan.
" Older, they must have brought something important to his body," Qing Ruo said asking Hua Zun to take out the storage ring that was still attached to the figure's third finger.
" Alright," Hua Zun replied as she grabbed the ring and handed it to Murong Jianyu.
After making sure that nothing else was left in the gold chest, Qing Ruo closed the chest and sealed it.
" Alright, let's check." said Hua Zun sambi unsealing the storage ring and took out its contents.
