Controlling the Five Thunders and the Two Worlds

Chapter 44: Sky Fox Nail and Moonlight Escape

Almost no ordinary people in Jinfengtang had ever faced him face to face, but Painter Lu was different.

This person had communicated with me before, and they were a pair of bad guys and bad monsters. They might be found by the Golden Wind God King. How could Gu Zhao let them live?

After killing Painter Lu and the painting monster, he indeed gained a lot of evil energy.

Gu Zhao recited a passage from the "Sutra of Saving People", and then used his magic power to erase the souls in the remaining scrolls, letting them dissipate between heaven and earth, and then quietly left Xiu Yue County.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. It is appropriate to go back to the mountain village and hide now.

He killed another guardian deity of the Golden Wind and stole a statue of the God of Incense. Maybe the King of the Golden Wind would come in person, so Gu Zhao would not stay at the crime scene to see the results.

……

As the sun sets, He Xiu Niang finishes her work for the day, and then brings Bai Ke to the village entrance. She leans against a big tree at the entrance, staring blankly at the official road in the distance.

"Don't look at him. He has only been out for more than ten days. How can he come back so soon?" Bai Ke lay on the embroiderer's shoulder and yawned lazily.

"I know. Anyway, I'm fine now, so I came here to take a look." The embroiderer was a little worried. "Do you think the young master is in danger?"

"How should I know?" Bai Ke curled his lips, then seeing the embroiderer's serious expression, he continued, "The three guardian gods of the Golden Wind Cult couldn't withstand even a few of his moves. As long as he doesn't go to the capital to provoke powerful enemies, ordinary goblins and ghosts are no match for him."

"Are all the powerful people in the capital city?" asked the embroiderer.

"That's not necessarily true." Bai Ke licked his lips and said, "Those who practice the way of the gods are mostly in the city or nearby, so they are more aware of the impact, but those who eat meat and suck blood or practice hard on their own will mostly choose to go to the wilderness.

The Daning Dynasty is declining, the Xuanwei Divine Cult is no longer what it once was, and the Spiritual Court is also short-staffed, but it still has some deterrent power."

After practicing with Bai Ke for many days, Xiu Niang had roughly learned some of the things going on in the cultivation world. She asked, "Those who practice the way of the gods, the Xuanwei Divine Cult doesn't care about them? Doesn't the imperial court forbid the worship of evil gods?"

"Because they can't control it anymore, as long as they don't wipe out the government office and admit that it is the territory of Daning, they will acquiesce. It's probably equivalent to dividing the land and making a king, right?" Bai Ke thought for a while and said.

The embroiderer nodded, seeming to understand, and exclaimed, "You know so much!"

Bai Ke wagged his tail and said proudly, "Of course, I am of the Heavenly Fox bloodline, and I have natural intelligence, so of course I know a lot."

"Then when can you transform into a human form?" the embroiderer asked expectantly.

"It's almost there." Bai Ke stretched out his claws and began to count. "As long as you practice well, I will be able to... two... three..."

"Master!?"

While Bai Ke was still doing arithmetic, the embroiderer cried out in surprise and ran forward, almost making Bai Ke stumble. She grabbed the embroiderer's clothes tightly and finally stopped steadily on her shoulder.

"Huh? You're back soon?" Bai Ke also saw Gu Zhao approaching, and the first thing she did was to look at his hands.

When he saw the familiar white transparent bag with two white transparent boxes inside, which were filled with things, he finally smiled knowingly.

"嘤嘤嘤!"

The fox eyes narrowed into a slit, and Bai Ke followed the embroiderer with a smile. Then he sniffed and smelled a sweet fragrance.

"Yes, it's Dongpo pork and five-spice roast chicken!"

"Sir, have you finished your work?" The embroiderer came to Gu Zhao, took the plastic bag from his hand, and followed Gu Zhao to the village.

"Well, I think it's half done." Gu Zhao said carefully, "I'll go back to the village for a few days, and then I'll go out again."

The embroiderer bit her lip and said, "Hmm..."

……

"Sir, come with me!"

After dinner, before it got completely dark, the embroiderer took Gu Zhao to the woods not far from the back of the village.

"What's wrong?" Gu Zhao narrowed his eyes and was very alert. The little girl's face was flushed, her expression was excited, and she acted sneakily. She pulled him into the woods. What was she planning?

I am not a casual person!
Even if I want to go into the woods, it has to be Jiang Shishi or Xiao Ya to suit my aesthetic taste.

Well, speaking of them... If my Tiangang Talisman really cured Grandpa Xiao Ya, and if she realized my extraordinaryness and wanted to marry her, how should I respond?

Seeing the smile on Gu Zhao's face, the embroiderer was also very happy, "Did you agree, sir?"

"Ah?" Gu Zhao looked confused.

"Look, young master!" The embroiderer said in a sweet voice, and with a flip of her palm, a white nail about an inch long appeared in her palm.

The embroiderer waved her hand and threw the nail, which turned into a stream of white light and shot out suddenly. It pierced through a small tree about ten feet away with a "bang", then circled around and flew back into her hand.

"Huh?" Gu Zhao raised his eyebrows in surprise. He didn't expect that in less than half a month, the embroiderer had already acquired some magical powers.

"This is Xiaobai's Sky Fox Nail, which is made from her hair. She made three nails in total, and she gave me one." The embroiderer handed the Sky Fox Nail to Gu Zhao.

"Oh oh!" Bai Ke raised her head proudly.

Gu Zhao didn't look at the nail, nor at Bai Ke. Instead, he turned around and carefully observed the small tree and the small hole in the middle of the trunk that was two fingers wide.

"It's still small-leaf red sandalwood... Is this nail worth hundreds of thousands?"

Gu Zhao clicked his tongue and then reached out to take the nail.

The nail was cloud white in color and felt like neither gold nor iron. It seemed to be made up of many white filaments, but it was solid and Gu Zhao couldn't bend it even with a little effort.

Judging from the fact that it penetrated the tree trunk in an instant without stopping, its impact and penetrating power are quite large.

"Is this what you used when you fought against the guardian of the Golden Wind Sect last time?" Gu Zhao asked.

Bai Ke nodded the fox's head and said, "That's it."

"Not bad, quite powerful." Gu Zhao returned the Sky Fox Nail to the embroiderer.

This is a Desert Eagle carried with him!

"Xiaobai said that the training will be faster at the beginning." The embroiderer couldn't help but reveal the truth, "but it will get slower and slower later."

"Everyone is the same." Gu Zhao said with a smile.

Whether in reality or in novels, everyone's progress becomes slower and slower as they practice, and it is normal to get stuck at the end, even geniuses are no exception. Therefore, those systems that can make up for one's shortcomings with hard work and stack progress bars are considered to be golden fingers.

Otherwise, all geniuses would have an epiphany and ascend to great heights overnight without any obstacles, and there would be no use for those plug-ins.

Encouraged by Gu Zhao, the embroiderer was very excited, "There's more, sir, look!"

The embroiderer looked up at the moon in the sky, then summoned all her magic power, and in a flash, she moved sideways to... two meters away.

This time Gu Zhao was really shocked, "Teleportation?"

"Hehehe, are you scared? Can't you do it?" Bai Ke shook his head, complacent.

Gu Zhao glanced at Bai Ke, "So you can pass through walls and houses and travel thousands of miles in an instant?"

Bai Ke's face instantly fell, "No, this is called Moonlight Escape. It can only use the power of moonlight to quickly move within the sight line. It consumes a lot of mana, it's only for saving life."

After explaining for a long time, Gu Zhao finally realized that this was not instant teleportation and could not cross space. It was just simple rapid movement.

But it's already very powerful. When the magic power is high, isn't it like shrinking the distance into an inch?

Gu Zhao rubbed his hands and chuckled, "Can I learn it?"
