The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

As Matthew rushed quickly towards the top of the mountain, another huge rock fell from above.

This boulder was larger than the previous one and rolled down faster.

The moment he saw the boulder rolling down, Matthew released another thick sword energy.

As expected, the boulder was directly cut in half by the sword energy.

The sword energy not only cut through the boulder, but also left a deep sword mark on the rock wall.

Matthew left a shadow behind as he passed directly through the broken part of the boulder.

As soon as he passed the broken boulder, he saw another boulder rolling down from above.

However, this time, Matthew saw that at the moment the boulder rolled down, a man flashed from behind the boulder and disappeared.

"Go, catch that man!"

Matthew let out a light cry and quickly moved to the side.

When the boulder rolled down, Matthew had already avoided it far away.

This time, his speed increased suddenly, and even his afterimage could not be seen.

The figure above was obviously stunned after seeing this scene.

Obviously, he didn't expect Matthew's reaction to be so quick.

But before this person could react.

Two beautiful figures suddenly appeared beside this person.

It was Xingyan and Yueru who received Matthew's order.

After the two men appeared, they immediately attacked the figure.

At this moment, the figure has been completely exposed.

Although he was also wrapped in a black robe, he also had a human body.

But his eyes are also white, just like Shi Fang's.

This person's reaction was much faster than Shi Fang's.

When the two women took action, an ochre-yellow light appeared on this person's body, and he instantly turned into a circular earth wall to protect them.

The earth wall had just appeared when the two women's attacks landed.

Two muffled sounds were heard at the same time, and the earth wall shattered instantly.

However, the man in black robe inside had disappeared.

The two girls frowned when they saw this.

"We came here just to look for some things and have no intention of making enemies with the nobles. We have already said hello to each other before. We will leave immediately after taking the items. I hope that fellow Taoists from the spirit race will not hinder us anymore." When Matthew arrived, Xing Yan immediately said loudly.

The sound was under Xingyan's control and was only transmitted within the mountain.

However, after Xing Yan finished speaking, the mountain became calm and peaceful, and even the occasional mountain breeze disappeared.

"We have learned some things about the spirit race from Shi Fang. It's not easy for you to survive. We just need to take the things and leave." Seeing that Xing Yan's words seemed to have worked, Yue Ru also spoke immediately.

Matthew was somewhat surprised by the two girls' actions, but he did not stop them.

It would be great if we could get the two fragments above without any effort.

After Yue Ru finished speaking, a ball of yellow light appeared about ten feet away from them.

In the yellow light was standing the black-robed man who had just disappeared.

"Since you can say Shi Fang's name, it seems that you really know something. There is nothing valuable on this mountain, and it is not impossible for you to go up. However, I need you to do something." The man in black robe looked at Matthew and the other two and said.

"What's the matter? If it's not too much trouble, I can help you." Matthew said with a twinkle in his eyes.

As he spoke, three yellow rays of light appeared nearby.

There is also a person in black robe standing in each of the three yellow rays, but their appearances are all different.

"I need you to destroy this mountain!"

The black-robed man's words stunned Matthew and the other two.

"Aren't you here to guard this place? Why do you want to destroy it?" Xing Yan asked puzzledly.

“Who said we are here to guard this place? We are here to find a way to destroy this mountain.” The man in black robe said calmly.

"It's a huge mountain. I'm afraid we can't completely destroy it in a short period of time." Matthew shook his head slightly.

"There is no need to destroy everything. You only need to destroy the top of the peak. The stone there is the hardest." The man in black robe continued.

"Okay, but we need to take the stuff away first."

This time, Matthew nodded and agreed readily.

"No problem, please help yourself."

After the man in black robe finished speaking, the yellow light on his body dissipated and he disappeared along with it.

At the same time, the other three silent men in black robes also disappeared.

Matthew knew that the four people did not leave, but hid themselves using secret methods.

Or he hid it in front of the three of them.

Most importantly, the three of them could not find any trace of the four people.

Since he had already promised the man in black, Matthew took the two women directly to the top of the mountain.

This time, there really were no more accidents.

Strangely enough, the higher we went, the more the crosswinds or mountain breezes that should have appeared disappeared.

Moreover, when approaching the top of the mountain, Matthew discovered that all the rocks there were solid pieces.

There are many scratches on the surface of these rocks, as if they had been hit by someone.

Therefore, Matthew roughly believed what the men in black robes said, and they might really be destroying the mountain.

As for the purpose of the man in black robe destroying the mountain, Matthew didn't want to guess, nor was he too lazy to guess.

He just wanted to get the fragment and leave.
