On the way back, Cao Kun felt both happy and heartbroken.
Fortunately, some of these amulet coins are quite good.
He could sense an extremely powerful force; if used as an apotropaic object, its power would certainly be extraordinary.
The heartbreaking thing is that the $3 million they just received has now dwindled to only $700,000.
"This money goes too fast."
"No wonder, everyone says that spiritual practice requires wealth, companions, methods, and a suitable environment. It's really true."
Cao Kun sighed with a sullen face.
The terms "wealth, companionship, law, and land" can be understood literally.
Wealth is money.
Spiritual practice requires various materials, which are often very rare and precious. Without money, there's no point in talking about spiritual practice.
Companion, Daoist companion.
A good cultivation partner can help you break through to higher levels faster, and you can also share resources.
The term "method" naturally refers to cultivation techniques and various magical arts.
Without cultivation techniques, what's the point of practicing xx?
The land is a blessed land.
Why did people in ancient times have to go into the mountains to cultivate immortality?
Because the mountain is full of spiritual energy and is undisturbed.
Some blessed lands are so rare that they are hard to come by.
Now, Cao Kun's dilapidated apartment is filled with evil energy, which, to him, is the most basic version of a paradise.
Of these four factors, wealth ranks first.
Clearly, you absolutely cannot do without money.
For Cao Kun now, making money is always the most important thing.
Back at the apartment, Cao Kun saw Seiko Yamashita busy in the kitchen again, probably studying yesterday's new recipe.
Cao Kun sat down on the sofa, just about to take out the amulet, when suddenly, the hairs on his body stood on end, and his face instantly turned gloomy.
On the only bed in the room, a doll was sitting against the headboard, as if smiling at him.
Cao Kun had just seen this doll yesterday; it was clearly the same doll that Charlize Theron owned.
Annabelle!
"Holy Son, come out here!"
Cao Kun yelled at the kitchen.
Seiko Yamashita came out with a shovel: "Master, what's wrong?"
Cao Kun pointed to the bed: "Where did this baby come from?"
Seiko Yamashita looked at the doll: "Master, didn't you buy this doll?"
Cao Kun: "Why would I buy a doll? Explain yourself."
“When I came back from grocery shopping, I saw this doll sitting at our door. I thought you had put it there.”
Seeing Cao Kun's grim expression, the Holy Son of the Mountain asked cautiously, "Master, what's wrong? Did I do something wrong?"
Cao Kun really wanted to slap the Holy Son down the mountain to death.
But now is clearly not the time to worry about that.
He had already figured out that Annabelle had shifted her focus to him after Charlize Theron went into hiding.
Seiko Yamashita now realized something was wrong with the doll. She examined it closely and asked, "Master, there's nothing special about this doll."
Cao Kun: "Shut up."
The young master immediately shut his mouth, daring not to speak again.
Cao Kun walked to the bedside, his eyes filled with murderous intent: "I didn't intend to provoke you, but you insisted on provoking me, so don't blame me for being impolite."
Cao Kun flicked his hand, and a Yin talisman flew out and stuck to the doll.
"urgent!"
Cao Kun made a hand seal, and immediately, eerie green flames rose from the doll's body.
Upon seeing the flames, the Holy Son of the Mountain instinctively retreated.
Last time, her ghostly mist was burned away by this yin fire.
He was defeated by Cao Kun in a single encounter.
This shows how powerful this yin fire is.
"ah!"
A piercing scream echoed through the room.
A woman's figure, dressed in a dirty white dress, flew out of the doll.
She lay on the ground with her hair disheveled, her eyes filled with resentment as she looked at Cao Kun.
This is Annabelle's true form.
She was a very cute little girl, but one day she suddenly disappeared from her home.
Years later, when she returned home, she had grown into a woman, and her secret identity was that of a staunch follower of the Gongyang Cult.
She used a knife to kill her parents.
She also tragically died during this process.
When she died, she was holding that doll in her arms, and her blood dripped into the doll's eyes, causing her ghost to attach itself to the doll.
From then on, she used dolls as a cover to steal people's souls everywhere.
Charlize Theron was one of her targets.
Now, she has set her sights on Cao Kun.
Seiko Yamashita's eyes widened: "A ghost! There's actually a ghost inside this doll!"
Turning her head to glance at the doll burning with eerie green flames, Annabelle's hatred intensified.
But the next moment, her eyes suddenly changed.
She looked at Cao Kun and the Holy Son of the Mountain with fervent eyes: "You are both excellent choices. You are both filled with enough dark energy."
Your souls will surely help my Lord.
Give yourself to it.
Dedicate your souls to my Lord, and when he returns to earth, he will surely reward you handsomely.
"Idiot." Cao Kun's only response to Annabelle's madness was a simple greeting.
Annabelle's face twisted: "If you're unwilling to offer yourselves, then let me help you. Afterwards, you'll thank me."
Bang bang bang...
The doors inside the house opened and closed by themselves, and pieces of furniture flew into the air one by one.
Outside the window, a large number of black crows flew in and crashed against the windowpane.
The windows of this dilapidated apartment are not as sturdy as those of Charlize Theron's.
After several black crows died, a large number of crows flew into the house, along with the furniture, and frantically hurled them at Cao Kun and the Holy Son of the Mountain.
"snort!"
Bang!
The room was too cramped, with nowhere to hide. Cao Kun punched away several pieces of furniture, but was still hit by several pieces of furniture.
He fell to the ground, a sharp pain shooting through his body.
That wasn't the end of it; the crows continued to fly towards him and the holy son at the foot of the mountain.
Its sharp claws clawed and clawed, and its beak pecked at their eyes, as if trying to rip their eyeballs out.
Cao Kun felt a surge of anger and was filled with murderous intent.
With a flick of his wrist, the Myriad Souls Banner appeared in his hand.
"Go to hell, all of you."
Cao Kun's Ten Thousand Soul Banner flickered, and suddenly a powerful suction force was generated, enveloping the crows.
The crows that flew in paused in their flapping of wings.
Their souls were forcibly extracted in an instant.
Their life force vanished rapidly, and they were either thrown into Cao Kun and the Holy Son of the Mountain by inertia, or fell directly to the ground, becoming bird corpses.
After dealing with the crows, Cao Kun discovered that Annabelle was missing and had disappeared somewhere.
His spiritual senses were scattered, and he couldn't find Annabelle inside the house.
Perhaps they were frightened by the sight of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and fled.
"You can't escape."
Filled with murderous intent, Cao Kun shook the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in his hand: "Yin spirits and evil ghosts, the Ten Thousand Souls Command has nowhere to hide. Absorb souls and steal spirits, absorb them all!"
The suction force of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner suddenly became even stronger, spreading out instantly and covering an area of several hundred meters in radius.
Suddenly, two figures appeared in mid-air outside Cao Kun's window.
