Chương 115: Going to clan treasury

Bai Yun took two days to get used to the new abilities he had gained. The especially difficult part was getting used to the sudden increase in his sight. Bai Yun was getting more information than he could process. It took Bai Yun a while to get used to his new reality. And it took even longer to use it properly in a fight. But he still managed to do so in just two days. And that was due to Bai Yun's great comprehension. If it was anyone else, they would have taken months for the same task.

Once Bai Yun was fine, he asked his father to take him to the clan treasury. It was finally time to get his rewards from the clan tournament.

So one day morning, Bai Mu, took Bai Yun and flew to the clan treasury. The clan treasury was located in a secret location and only Dao step cultivators of the Bai clan were allowed to know its location.

Bai Mo used teleportation to travel. Due to Bai Yun's cultivation, teleportation disoriented him a bit. When Bai Yun finally came to, he found himself standing in front of a tall pagoda.

The pagoda wasn't exceptionally tall or large. It wouldn't look out of place in a random street in Yellow city. But Bai Yun could tell that this pagoda was extraordinary.

With a single look, Bai Yun saw that the pagoda was covered with many formations. But Bai Yun could not identify the formations. The formations inscribed were very small. Even with Bai Yun's current eyesight, he could not see them clearly. But just from the feel the pagoda was giving him, Bai Yun could guess some of the functions of the formations laid on the pagoda.

Suddenly an old man appeared in front of Bai Yun. He was wearing a grey robe and had long white hair and long moustache that reached his shoulder. As the old man stood there, he gave off a stiff pressure that suppressed Bai Yun. If Bai Yun was feeling such a presence for the first time, he might've kneeled in terror. But even with the great pressure on him, Bai Yun simply smiled and ignored the pressure given off by the old man. This wasn't a pressure given by cultivation, but only the pressure of experience. And he had felt much stronger presences before. So Bai Yun could directly ignore it.

Seeing that Bai Yun wasn't affected by his presence, the old man was surprised. He then nodded and took back his presence.

"This junior has seen elder San." Bai Mu said to the elder while cupping his hands and slightly bowing.

"I haven't seen you for a few years, and you have already reached the dao seed realm." The old man said with a smile. "At this time you will overtake us old guys in no time."

Bai Mu only smiled in response. The old man then turned to face Bai Yun. "Is this your son?" The old man asked.

"Yes." Bai Mu said. He then turned and introduced the two of them. "This is my son Bai Yun. Yun this is the first elder of the Bai clan, Bai San. He is responsible for the protection of the clan treasury."

Bai Yun gently bowed to the elder like his father. "I have seen elder San." Bai Yun said.

"They told me that you had won the clan tournament, but you could not come with the rest of them to collect your rewards since you were injured." The old man asked.

"Yes. This junior injured my eyes, and had to wait until they recovered." Bai Yun said.

The old man laughed when he heard this. "You actually won the clan tournament while blind. I must say you must be even more terrifying than your father." Elder San said.

Bai Yun only smiled lightly in response, while Bai Mu looked quite proud of this.

After this elder San directly took out the rewards that the first place for the clan tournament got. It included a million gold coins, five hundred low grade spirit stones, and a few pills that aided in cultivation in the foundation establishment realm. It wasn't much, after all the most important reward was inside the treasury.

"Well lets not just stand here talking. Let's go inside and choose a reward." Elder San.

Elder San then turned around and walked to the pagoda. When he reached the entrance of the pagoda, elder San touched it gently. Then a light lit up the door, and it slowly turned into a silver whirlpool. Then elder San stepped into the silver whirlpool and disappeared. Seeing this Bai Yun and Mu also hurried behind him. They also stepped into the whirlpool and disappeared. After they went in, the whirlpool slowly dimmed and turned back into a normal door.

For a moment Ba Yun was blinded by the light of the whirlpool. When he came, to, Bai Yun realised that he was standing in the middle of a large room. To his left were many boxes filled with various items. To his front were many shelves all filled with colorful items. To his right were what looked to be many lockers. And finally, there was a large hallway right behind him.

"Welcome to the clan treasury." Elder San said. "The important items of the clan are stored here."

"I doubt that." Bai Yun said. "considering the size of this, and the size of the clan, I bet there are are more treasuries like this. A smart person will always hide their treasure in multiple places. And I think that the truly valuable items must be hidden somewhere else. Most likely under the guard of a grand elder."

Elder San and Bai Mu only laughed when they heard this. "Do you have any idea what you are looking for?" Elder San aked Bi Yun.

"Let me take a look around and see what items are here." Bai Yun replied.

"Be quick about it. You only have a day to choose your item." Elder San explained.

"In that case can you give me an introduction to this place. Knowing what is here would help me choose an item faster." Bai Yun said.

Even though he had already decided to get a transcendent flame, it was a good idea to check out what is here. This way if there was something better he would miss out on it.

"Surely." Elder San said. "To your right is the special security boxes of clan members. These items are personal items of the clan members that are stored here for protection. You cannot choose any of them."

"To your left is the clan's treasury. It is here that the clan's money, as well as spirit stones, are stored. Since you can only choose one item from the entire treasury you should ignore them for the time being. Else you might end up going back with only a single gold coin."

"Finally we come to what you can choose. In front of you are the treasures that the clan has collected over time. These treasures are kept in boxes on the shelves. The hallway behind you is also filled with treasures. Except that those are either extremely valuable items that are in need of special protection, or items too large to be kept in a box."

"You can choose any item on the shelf or hallway, given that you can use it. This means that you cannot choose a pill or an item that you cannot use at the current level of cultivation, like a pill that can help you to break through to the nascent soul realm. If you select something like that and I feel like it will be wasted, then I can choose not to allow you to collect it. At that point, you can choose another item, or prove that you can indeed use it by consuming or utilizing it on the spot. If you can do that, you can redeem that item."

"So what will it be." Elder San asked.

"What do you think I should select?" Bai Yun asked his father.

"There is nothing here that you would need right now. Anything you need, we can easily buy. And as for weapons, you would not be able to find a better word than the one I gave you. I would suggest that you get a life saving talisman or a powerful defensive robe or armor. When it was my turn, I choose a teleportation talisman the first time and a powerful single use attack talisman the second time. I already used up both of them, showing that they can be effective."Bai Mu explained.

"You only won the first place twice?" Bai Yun asked. There were four chances to win first place, once in each of the cultivation levels for which the clan tournament was held.

"Yes in the qi condensation and foundation established realm tournaments." Bai Mu explained. "After that, I joined the shadow stream academy and did not participate in later tournaments."

Bai Yun nodded when he heard this. Even he had to admit that his father in this life was quite talented. It would be a miracle if he could not win the clan tournament.

"Let us go and take a look at the items on the shelves." Bai Yun said. "After that, I will look at the items in the hallway ad then make a choice."

"Even if you go to the hallway, it won't be of any help." Elder San said. "The items there are all either too valuable or too large for someone like you to use. In all my time in the clan, I have never heard of anyone at the qi step collecting something from the hallway."

Bai Yun only nodded and slowly walked towards one of the shelves. There were many shelves extending as far as he could see. Bai Yun frowned when he looked at this. There was no way he could look through all of them and choose a suitable item.

"There is no need to look through all of them. There is a catalog in each shelve detailing everything on the shelf. There is also a master catalog there." Bai Mu said while pointing to a small podium that stood right in front of the shelves.

"And you just need to skim through the first few shelves." Elder San said. "The further back you go, the more precious and thus the higher the cultivation needed for the items. Thus you only need to scan past the first few shelves.

Bai Yun nodded and walked towards the podium. When he touched his hands on the podium, it lit up and a small display appeared. The display showed various shelves in the treasury. By focussing his attention on the various shelves, Bai Yun could see what was inside the shelves. Bai Yun could also see the details of the items by focussing on the item name.

Bai Yun quickly looked through the item list. But he saw nothing that truly moved him. Bai Yun also had an idea to see if he could find any item that the clan couldn't identify and thus kept here without knowing what it is. But he found that every item here was well documented and there was no loophole for him to exploit. It made sense after he thought about it. After all, the clan wouldn't keep unknown and potentially dangerous items in the same place as their treasures. There was probably a dedicated treasury just for unknown items.

Finally, Bai Yun looked up from the podium after an hour. "I found nothing that is particularly interesting. I know you said it is pointless, but let us check out the hallway anyway." Bai Yun said. "Who knows, I might find something fun."

Elder San nodded with a smile. He was clearly used to this request. After all, even if they couldn't utilize the items in the hallway, they could expand their horizons. Thus many people asked to check out the hallway.

The three of them turned around and headed for the hallway.
