Chapter 10 The Underground Palace

"Black Claw, how do you feel now?" Cao Kai asked.

Black Claw on the side touched his big, smooth head, thought for a while and then said: "I just feel chilly all over, not very happy, but there's nothing else."

After speaking, he looked around curiously.

Although Black Claw was captured by the Earthly Immortal World, he did not lose his original memory, but was instilled with information about this world, and his absolute loyalty to the Lord of the World, Cao Kai.

Suddenly coming into a strange world, Black Claw was also surprised.

"Go and try to see if you can get into the water." Cao Kai turned to look at the river in front of him and ordered. Since Black Claw is not afraid of fog erosion, he should not be afraid of these poisonous river water.

Blue-finned frogmen are naturally able to control water.

Since the strange mist appeared around it, no one has dared to enter the Wushui River for how many years. A large amount of precious materials such as blood essence have accumulated in the river. He just did a rough sweep with the Earth Immortal Domain and found that

A lot.

The Wushui River flows through the fog area for dozens of miles.

If all the treasures deposited at the bottom of the river are plundered, the harvest will be astonishing!

The river section in front of him is about twenty meters wide. After absorbing the Yin and Yang Two Elephant Stones, Cao Kai's Earth Immortal Domain also expanded to about fifty meters, enough to cover the entire river section.

"Yes, sir." Black Claw took the order and stepped forward.

I walked a few steps to the river and stopped. I squatted down, bent over and stirred the water under me. I felt nothing strange, so I walked straight forward into the river and didn't stop until I was shoulder deep.

"Sir, the water in this river is really cold."

A blue light shimmered under Black Claw's feet, and he used his natural ability of 'water control'. His whole body suddenly rose from the river, leaving only his two calves buried in the water, and he actually stood directly on the river.

"This is Black Claw's innate ability, waterbending?"

Looking at Black Claw standing on the river, Cao Kai's eyes lit up. This ability to control water is quite good, but unfortunately, this is Black Claw's innate ability, and he has no way to learn it.

"Okay, come up."

Black Claw walked on the water, took a few steps ashore and returned to Cao Kai.

"From today onwards, the treasure in this river will have an owner." Cao Kai smiled at the corners of his eyes. With the detection ability of the earth immortal field and the water-bending talent of Black Claw, the river bottom has accumulated countless treasures for countless years.

The baby can't run away anymore.

However, he was not in a hurry to salvage it.

These things have been lying quietly at the bottom of the river for so many years, and they will not run away on their own. If he wants to salvage them, he can salvage them at any time, and there is no rush.

He had more important things to do than salvaging things from the river.

"Black Claw, you go back first."

"Yes, sir."

Cao Kai waved his hand and recalled Black Claw to the Earthly Immortal Realm, then turned and left.



Not far to the east along the Wushui River, at the foot of the mountain is the Laoye Temple. Shrouded in thick fog, the former solemn temple looks like a haunted house, revealing a hint of eeriness.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of the Laoye Temple. It was Cao Kai who came from the Wushui River.

"It seems I guessed correctly, it is indeed here."

Cao Kai stopped.

The Earth Immortal Domain dispersed, and the residual aura of the black insects was immediately felt beneath the Laoye Temple.

When he saw the wolf demon that turned into a mummy before, he thought of the rumors Yu Zhining said about the headless ghost general. The ghost general specializes in sucking human blood and is very similar to a black insect.

Moreover, those black bugs are extremely small and like to move in groups. Coupled with the thick fog, which affects the vision, at first glance, they really look like ghosts.

At this point, it seemed that what he had expected was good.

"Those black bugs are not easy to deal with. You must not risk going in."

"open."

With a thought, the Earth Immortal Domain suddenly expanded several times, covering the entire Laoye Temple.

At the same time, the source power stored in the Earth Immortal Realm also decreased rapidly. To maintain a normal exploration range of about fifty meters, very little source power is consumed, but once it exceeds fifty meters, the source power consumption will increase geometrically.

"This is…"

After seeing the situation in the underground palace clearly, Cao Kai couldn't help but be stunned.

Under the shroud of the Earthly Immortal Realm, the situation below appeared clearly in his mind.

The underground palace under the Laoye Temple is extremely weird, with a disorderly structure. For example, some places that are obviously the entrances to stone chambers have an extra wall in the middle of the entrances; some stone chambers seem to have been turned upside down, with the entrances buried in the rocks under their feet.

, the other sides are all thick walls and cannot be entered at all.

Moreover, there are two types of materials used to build the underground palace, and they are distinct.

One is the cyan masonry used to build the Laoye Temple; the other is a white stone similar to white marble. A discerning eye can see the difference at a glance.

"wrong."

"This is not one underground palace, but two underground palaces superimposed on each other."

Cao Kai soon realized that the underground palace under Laoye Temple was not the same one.

Those made of ordinary bricks and stones should be the real Laoye Temple Underground Palace, while those made of white marble are another underground palace. Looking at the scene below, it seems that the white marble underground palace appeared out of thin air, overlapping and merging with the Laoye Temple Underground Palace.

together.

Those black insects gathered in one of the white stone chambers.

However, the black insects gathered in the stone room at this time were many times more than what he had seen before.

In a stone room next to it, there is a human skeleton sitting cross-legged on the stone platform in the middle. There are several items that emit strong energy fluctuations scattered around. The ground and surrounding walls are covered with dense insect eggs.

From the looks of it, those black bugs should have been hatched here.

"There is no reaction from the Earthly Immortal Realm. The objects inside are not spiritual objects or strange objects that can be swallowed by the Earthly Immortal Realm. However, judging from the energy fluctuations, they should be good things."

"but."

"It's not easy to get things." Cao Kai frowned. He was not one of those greedy people who wanted money rather than life. The black insects below gave him a very dangerous feeling. Even if his strength was greatly increased now,

There is not much certainty that we can escape unscathed. Although the treasure is good, it is not worth risking your life for the treasure.

"Don't worry, just wait."

"Those people failed to find the treasure last time. If someone escapes, they will definitely come back again. If someone can attract the attention of these black insects, I have a great chance of succeeding with the help of the Earthly Immortal Realm."

"If no one comes, then we have to give up."

Soon Cao Kai made up his mind and searched around the Laoye Temple for several times, and found a dead tree not far from the underground palace. This tree was as thick as three people hugging each other, and even though it had been dead for many years, its branches were still strong.

Rub rub rub.

Using both hands and feet, he took a few steps to the tree and waited quietly. The dead tree was ten or twenty meters high, and it was covered by thick fog. Even if he stood under the tree, it would be difficult to spot anyone hiding in the tree.

.

time flies.

The wind rose and stopped, stopped and started again, and more than ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

"Wait three more days."

"If no one comes yet, give up." Cao Kai leaned against the tree trunk, half lying on a thick branch that stretched out. He had been lying in wait here for more than ten days. Although scavengers occasionally passed by, there were no scavengers.

Came here to hunt for treasure.

Through his observations these days.

The black insects in the underground palace were divided into three groups. They would take turns going out to look for food every once in a while, and each time they acted in groups, so he had no chance to do anything.

The purple sweet potatoes planted in the Earthly Immortal Realm have been harvested twice.

At this time, most of the Earthly Immortal Realm was planted with purple sweet potatoes. He had collected a lot of special spiritual energy, enough to plant two more batches. Excluding those used as seeds, he harvested nearly 20,000 kilograms of purple sweet potatoes in total.

Although purple sweet potatoes taste good, no one can bear to chew them for more than ten days. If no one comes this time, he plans to plunder the things at the bottom of the Wushui River before leaving here and heading to Liucheng on the northwest border.

As for Yancheng, he has no plans to go there for the time being.

He was arrested in the Qingping Mountain area, and Qingping Mountain is not far from Yancheng. From this, it can be inferred that the predecessor of his body is likely to be from Yancheng. If he is recognized by someone in Yancheng, it will be troublesome.

That's big.

At this moment.

Suddenly, Cao Kai's face changed slightly and he looked down at the Laoye Temple below: "Huh? Someone is here again."

"Captain Wang, this is it."

A voice sounded, followed by several figures walking out of the thick fog.

The Zhenjie Division is divided into twelve battalions. Except for the Chou Battalion, which has the largest number of people, the other eleven battalions have chiefs and deputy battalion chiefs, who are responsible for commanding each battalion. One chief and two lieutenants, a total of three people, are also called school captains.

"Sir, the ghost inside is very powerful. Even the fifth master lost his life that time before." Wu Datou said tremblingly.

Thinking of that black shadow, Wu Da's head couldn't help but tremble.

I even cursed my mother in my heart.

I don't know what evil he did in his previous life to end up in such a mess.

The last time I came to Laoye Temple, I managed to save my life. After I went back, I just boasted a few words about treasure hunting in Laoye Temple, but someone spotted me, so I had to bite the bullet and come here.

And this time is different from last time.

I heard that the order was given directly by the big shot of the Blood Sword Guard, and even Wang Lianhai, the famous "Flying Cloud Spear" of the Zhenjie Division, was dispatched. If he dared to say the word "no" in his mouth, he would be dragged to the dogs immediately.
