Chapter 017 The Bronze Sword! The Sword Spirit, the Green-Winged Girl!
Is there something special?
Cao Kun's eyes lit up, and he immediately walked in the direction indicated by the Five Rats Bringing Wealth Bodhi String.
On the other side, Yanzi shook her head: "Not yet, they just told us to get ready, someone will come to collect it."
Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan, and the others breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Suddenly, they noticed that Cao Kun had disappeared.
Yanzi had sharp eyes; she spotted the end of a path half-hidden by weeds on her left.
There's a figure!
"There he is, he walked that way!"
Before Yanzi could finish speaking, she quickly followed after him.
"Master Cao, wait for us..."
Upon seeing this, Hu Bayi patted Wang Kaixuan on the shoulder: "Quick, let's catch up."
Soon, the three of them caught up with Cao Kun.
At the end of the road stood a dilapidated earth god temple.
For some reason, it exuded an indescribable strangeness.
Cao Kun looked around and realized that the land temple had been abandoned for many years.
The brick walls have long since crumbled, revealing the dark blue-green soil underneath.
Most of the roof tiles had fallen off, revealing the bare wooden beams.
Green vines twined around the roof beams, rustling softly in the breeze!
The temple gate was crooked, half of it had fallen off and was leaning against the wall.
The door panel was covered with messy scratches.
"Mr. Cao, you can't go there."
The swallows murmured softly.
"Oh, what happened?"
Cao Kun asked without turning his head.
"That's right, the local earth god temple has been peaceful for the past few decades."
"But ever since the earthquake, there have been strange noises coming from inside."
Yanzi told Cao Kun, Hu Bayi, and Wang Kaixuan.
During the day, some daring villagers went to check the local temple, but there was nothing there.
At night, there would be strange noises.
The villagers unanimously believed that there was something dirty inside.
Upon hearing this, Hu Bayi lowered his voice and said, "That shouldn't be the case. The Earth God Temple is the spirit of the local land vein, guarding the land and water, suppressing evil spirits, and protecting the people. But this place is filled with a sinister aura."
Wang Kaixuan shrank back and whispered, "Old Hu, is it true? Don't scare me."
Just then, a gust of wind blew in my face.
The wind made the broken door of the earth god temple creak and groan.
Soon, a series of soft, rustling sounds came from inside the temple.
It looks like something is crawling inside.
Interspersed with a faint, sharp whistle.
Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan, and Yanzi heard it all clearly.
The three of them were instantly on tenterhooks.
"Alright, you guys stay here, I'll go in and take a look."
With that, Cao Kun walked towards the earth god temple without looking back.
Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan were still thinking of saying something when Cao Kun had already entered the local temple.
Finally, Hu Bayi turned to go inside.
"Don't move around. Don't worry, I'll be fine."
Cao Kun said in a deep voice.
"Alright, Mr. Cao, just let me know if you need anything."
As Hu Bayi spoke, he subconsciously clenched his fist.
After Cao Kun entered the temple, he used the bright moonlight to see what was inside.
The wall was peeling off more and more severely, and the wall was covered with dark marks.
The incense burner that was being offered up was already broken into pieces and scattered all over the ground.
The black incense ash mixed with dark red stains hardened into lumps on the ground.
Yellow hairs can be vaguely seen.
The altar that was originally dedicated to the Earth God has long since collapsed.
The wooden shrine was rotten and decayed, with only half of it remaining.
The clay sculpture's face was blurry and distorted, its eyes hollow, as if it had been gnawed on by something.
Its body was covered in scratches, just like the claw marks on the temple door.
Cao Kun walked behind the statue and shone his flashlight on it.
Under the warm orange light.
He saw a row of small footprints.
Finally, Cao Kun saw a young girl wearing a bright green dress in the camera's field of vision.
She has beautiful features, a slender figure, and skin as white as jade.
A faint blue light surrounded him!
Upon seeing someone enter, the girl vanished without a trace.
Goblin?
Upon witnessing this scene, Cao Kun calmly retrieved the Han Dynasty bronze ghost mirror from the Xuanhan dragon-patterned thumb ring.
He held the Han Dynasty bronze ghost mirror and aimed it at the spot where the girl had been standing.
The other party is not currently in the act.
So, it's not a ghost!
Cao Kun took another look at the Five Rats Bringing Wealth Bodhi String in his hand.
It was still emitting a faint glow.
He extended his wrist and continued walking forward.
Cao Kun has already mastered the pattern of the Five Rats Bringing Wealth Bodhi String.
The closer you are to your baby.
The brighter the light of the Five Rats Bringing Wealth Bodhi beads will be.
on the contrary.
When you are far away from the item, the bracelet will lose its luster.
Finally, in a pile of black mud.
Cao Kun saw a bronze sword hilt.
He bent down and picked it up.
There were some dark red stains on it, as well as weasel-like hairs.
Cao Kun's consciousness stirred, and a line of data appeared:

……
Cao Kun's eyes lit up.
It really is a treasure!
However, the girl in the emerald green dress did not appear.
Therefore, Cao Kun activated the Azure Dragon Technique.
Dragon energy surged within his dantian, slowly flowing from the palm of his right hand into the Azure Mist Sword before him.
Immediately, a dazzling light emanated from around the sword!
Immediately.
The girl in the emerald green dress reappeared in the void.
"Are you a descendant of the Azure Dragon?"
Then, a clear and ethereal female voice rang out.
Like a clear spring flowing in a mountain stream.
Cao Kun subconsciously stopped in his tracks.
His practice of the Azure Dragon Technique was extremely secretive, and he never mentioned it to anyone else.
The sword spirit of the Azure Mist Sword has only just appeared, how could it see through it at a glance?
Cao Kun looked at the girl in green in front of him.
A faint blue light rippled around her.
Cao Kun thought for a moment and realized that the other party was originally a sword spirit transformed from the ancient bronze sword of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Having lived through a thousand years, they have seen and learned a great deal.
Moreover, the sword itself contains the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so it is not difficult to see through the aura of the Azure Dragon within one's body.
Thinking of this, Cao Kun nodded slightly and said solemnly, "However, what I cultivate is the Azure Dragon Technique!"
The green-clad sword spirit nodded gently, and the azure light around her became even softer.
A hint of warmth appeared in her originally cold eyes.
The sword spirit said sweetly, "I never thought that after a thousand years, I would meet the successor of the Azure Dragon lineage again. My thousand-year wait has not been in vain."
