The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Now, Matthew no longer waited outside, and followed into the forest without hesitation.

There were scattered leaves underfoot, piled up like mountains, many of which had already rotted and gave off a sickening smell of decay.

The evil beast and Qibao disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

But since Matthew had already warned them, the two little guys probably wouldn't run too far, so he didn't have to worry too much.

The interior of the forest is not as quiet and silent as it appears on the surface. On the contrary, it is filled with all kinds of noisy sounds.

From all directions, bursts of chirping sounds could be heard, or familiar but difficult to distinguish sounds could be heard one after another.

All other places he had visited had undergone changes, and this place might also be very different from the past. Matthew knew that he had to remain vigilant at all times.

After taking a few steps, he quickly summoned the Hunyuan Wuchan Sword and held it tightly in his palm.

At this moment, a sudden rustling sound came from the crown of a big tree.

Matthew immediately turned his head alertly, staring at the direction where the sound came from with eyes as sharp as a hawk.

A small and exquisite bird appeared from among the dense leaves, and its round little head looked at Matthew below curiously.

After just a few glances, the bird flapped its wings and flew away, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

It was just an ordinary flying bird, so Matthew didn't care.

But just when he was about to turn around, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

A black shadow seemed to pass by quickly from the place where the bird flew out just now.

His eyes focused and he swung the Hunyuan Wuchan Sword in his hand violently.

In an instant, a sword beam as long as seven or eight feet broke through the air and struck the crown of the big tree like lightning.

In this unfamiliar place, you have to be cautious and careful to ensure your safety.

Now that you have discovered something unusual, you must find out what exactly happened.

The sword light arrived at an astonishing speed and slashed heavily on the tree canopy.

With a loud "crack", the huge tree crown was cut in half, and countless branches and leaves fell to the ground.

When the dust settled, Matthew looked carefully and saw half of a snake's body lying in the treetops.

The other half of the body had already fallen heavily to the ground.

The snake was emerald green all over and was obviously dead.

Just as Matthew was staring at the half snake body on the ground, a strange scene appeared.

Suddenly, a number of milky white worms crawled out from the broken wound on the snake's body.

These worms are tiny, about the size of peanuts, and they twist their bodies, appearing very active.

After these milky white worms appeared, they immediately crawled all over the half of the snake's body on the ground.

In just a few breaths, that half of the snake body turned into a pile of bones.

There was not even a trace of flesh and blood left on his body.

Matthew flicked his finger and a ball of purple flame shot out and landed on the white bones.

Suddenly, the purple flame suddenly grew to half a meter high, burning the bones and worms together.

Then, Matthew waved his hand, and purple flames flew up and landed on the treetops.

At this moment, the half of the snake's body above the tree canopy had been completely eaten by the milky white worms.

This time, the purple flame directly ignited the entire tree.

The purple flames burned fiercely, and in a blink of an eye, only a pile of charred ashes remained of the tree.

After the purple flames died out, Matthew left.

A moment later, a purple sword energy split a two-meter-tall demon bear into two halves.

After the demon bear died, a large number of milky white worms crawled out of its body and began to devour the corpse frantically.

Matthew was standing on a broken log not far away.

Look at everything in front of you.

This was the third monster he had killed.

Every time a monster dies, a large number of worms will immediately emerge from its corpse.

The stronger and larger the monster is, the more worms there are.

Every time a monster dies, countless worms will quickly crawl out of its body.

These worms seem to be parasitic in the bodies of monsters naturally.

Especially as the monster becomes stronger and bigger, the number of worms inside it increases.

Whenever the worms began to devour the corpses of monsters, Matthew would destroy them without hesitation.

After all, if he is not careful, these seemingly insignificant worms may bring him unexpected trouble.

This time, it was no different.

Matthew urged the purple flame to pounce on the dead demon bear.

However, just as the purple flames approached, something amazing happened.

A crack suddenly appeared in the body of some worms, and then moths broke out of their cocoons and flew high.

As the moth's wings fluttered, pieces of scales flew away.

The moment the purple flame touched the scales, the raging flames were instantly extinguished.

Matthew was dumbfounded when he saw this scene. He couldn't believe what he saw.

You know, even though what he displayed was not the acquired immortal flame, it was at least a kind of spiritual fire. How could it be so easily extinguished by mere scale powder?
