The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Seeing that the two of them didn't speak anymore.

Matthew continued, "The Lotus Sword Technique was the technique I practiced when I first entered the world of immortal cultivation. It was only when I didn't find a follow-up technique that I switched to other techniques."

"It is fate for me that you can encounter the Lotus Sword Technique here. Not only will I not blame you, I will also pay for the purchase of this sword technique for you."

After saying that, Matthew took out a bag of spirit stones from his storage bag and threw it to Zheng Yu.

When Zheng Yu caught the thrown spirit stone, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.

The number of spirit stones Matthew gave obviously exceeded the number of spirit stones he purchased.

And Matthew hasn't blamed him for it yet.

This made Zheng Yu happy and relieved.

"This Lotus Sword Technique is quite good. You can practice some of the secret techniques in it."

As Matthew spoke, a purple light flashed in his palm, and a purple sword light suddenly appeared.

As soon as the sword light appeared, it immediately emanated a biting chill.

Although there was still some distance between the two of them, cold sweat had already appeared on their faces.

"Back then, because there was no follow-up martial arts, I was forced to switch to practicing other martial arts. Both of you can practice this sword technique. Now take me to see the person who sells the sword technique." Matthew said lightly after putting away the sword.

When he stood up, a book of sword techniques fell into Zheng Yu's hands.

This book of sword techniques was originally bought by Zheng Yu, so naturally he was interested in it.

But after seeing the sword light displayed by Matthew, Lin Fengyi's eyes also showed a fiery look.

Matthew put away his sword manual.

This sword technique was given to him by Grandpa Zheng before he died, and he couldn't give it to anyone else.

This is one of Matthew's most precious things.

Matthew vaguely remembered the time when he was still in Wangxian City.

Grandpa Zheng had told him more than once that his ancestor was also an extraordinary cultivator.

In the past, Matthew just thought it was his grandfather’s bragging and didn’t take it too seriously.

But now, he actually met someone who possessed the Lotus Sword Technique in the Northern Territory Wasteland, which aroused Matthew's strong interest.

In addition, he also really wanted to obtain the subsequent skills of the Lotus Sword Technique.

Soon, the two of them left the inn with Matthew.

After walking for a while, Matthew was led by the two to a stall.

This stall is filled with booklets.

They are actually secret manuals of martial arts.

The stall owner was a middle-aged man in his forties with an ordinary appearance.

His cultivation level is not high, he has just completed the foundation building process.

"Hey, fellow Daoist, why are you back again after just buying the sword techniques? Are you interested in other martial arts and secret techniques?" The middle-aged man obviously remembered Zheng Yu and immediately said with a smile when he arrived.

After he finished speaking, Matthew flicked his finger and a protective shield suddenly appeared.

The shield only wrapped the stall owner and him.

Zheng Yu and Lin Fengyi were directly separated outside.

Although the stall owner was a little surprised by Matthew's behavior, he could still understand it.

After all, this kind of thing happens all the time.

Just when he was about to say a few polite words, he saw a purple light suddenly flash in Matthew's eyes.

The purple light was so strange that the stall owner felt dizzy after seeing it.

Then he knew nothing.

"What's your name?" Matthew asked.

"Zheng Wanshan." The stall owner replied dully.

"How many levels does the Lotus Sword Technique have?" Matthew continued to ask.

"I have the front and middle parts of the skills in my hands, which can be practiced to the Jindan stage." Zheng Wanshan said blankly.

"Is there any further practice?" Matthew asked again.

"Yes, but the back part was taken away by someone and it's not with me," Zheng Wanshan replied.

"Where is it!" Matthew asked with his eyes fixed.

"exist..."

By asking questions one by one through the dream-inducing technique, Matthew finally learned some things about the Lotus Sword Technique.

Zheng Wanshan comes from a place called Zhengjia Village.

Their people have lived in Zhengjia Village for generations.

The entire village is controlled by their family.

The Lotus Sword Technique is the most powerful martial art in Zhengjia Village.

Although there were no particularly talented people in the village, relying on its unique geographical location and the prohibitions and formations left by its ancestors, it did gain some breathing space in the wasteland of the northern region.

Originally, as long as Zhengjia Village developed quietly, its strength would gradually increase.

But unfortunately, things don't always go as planned.

Conflicts arose within the family due to the two extreme ideas of expansion and conservatism.

Zheng Wanshan belongs to the group that wants to defend the village.

The conflict escalated and finally led to an internal fight within the family.

In Zheng Wanshan's words, the scene was extremely tragic as people of the same clan fought each other.

In the end, the conservative faction was driven out of the village by the expansionist faction.

When Zheng Wanshan left, he took away some secret techniques of the family, including the front and middle parts of the Lotus Sword Technique.

Originally, he wanted to take the back half as well.

However, time was urgent, and the storage location of the second half had always been guarded by the expansionist faction.

Therefore, he gave up and fled the village with the other things.
