The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Although there were many magical herbs in the medicine garden, they were not very old and none of them caught Matthew's eye.

After just a few glances, Matthew arrived in front of the largest room in the middle.

The aura of Xingyan and Yueru is in this room.

Matthew took a deep breath and walked in.

And Wu Yanshuang followed closely inside.

Sure enough, the Qinglian hermit was sitting in front of a coffee table at this moment.

Yueru and Xingyan sat on both sides of Master Qinglian.

After coming in, Wu Yanshuang stood obediently at the door and did not disturb the people inside.

"Young Master Ma really surprised me. A mere foundation-building cultivator back then has actually become a Nascent Soul cultivator who has reached great perfection." Master Qinglian gestured to Ma Xiu to sit down, then made him a cup of tea and began to speak.

This tea looks ordinary, but it smells extremely fragrant.

But Matthew did not touch the teacup. He cupped his hands and said, "I am just lucky. Fairy Wu is with you, so her cultivation speed is really fast."

"That girl has always taken you as her goal and practiced hard. She originally thought that she had surpassed you and was still trying to get news about you. But now, she finally understands what it means that there are always people better than you." Mr. Qinglian said with a smile after making a cup of tea for himself.

Wu Yanshuang, who was standing at the door, blushed slightly when she heard this.

"My two maids may have acted a little rashly. Have they offended you, senior?" Matthew did not continue to talk about Wu Yanshuang. Instead, he glanced at Xingyan and Yueru, then looked at Qinglian Jushi and asked.

"No, I took the initiative to invite them in for tea. You are really capable. You actually took in two people with the Extreme Yin Body and the Nine Yin Body as your maids. Their cultivation is not weaker than yours. Young Master Ma really knows how to control people."

While speaking, Mr. Qinglian looked at Matthew with a strange look.

Hearing this, Matthew didn't react much.

Instead, Xingyan and Yueru both lowered their heads slightly in shame.

For a moment, Matthew didn't quite understand what Mr. Qinglian meant.

However, he did not intend to get too entangled with the other party on this matter.

Just when Matthew was about to continue expressing his attitude, Mr. Qinglian spoke again.

"I let your two maids stay not to make things difficult for them," said Mr. Qinglian.

"I know, senior is injured." Matthew asked after taking a deep breath.

As soon as these words were spoken, Mr. Qinglian's originally indifferent expression changed slightly.

However, this person was quite frank and actually nodded in acknowledgement.

"Yes, I already know that there is a considerable force behind you. I asked them to call you here because I want to tell you what I have experienced." Master Qinglian said softly.

"Junior is all ears." Upon hearing this, Matthew's expression became serious and he immediately bowed.

"It's not a particularly important thing, actually. I was just passing by a sea area when I accidentally saw some monsters emerging from the sea. Out of curiosity, I went into the sea to see what was going on."

"When I went deep into the seabed, I discovered that it was the nest of the sea tribe. When I arrived there, the sea tribe had been completely slaughtered by the demons. When I was about to leave, I found a remnant soul of a guy who claimed to be a holy beast. It was through him that I learned that the purpose of the sea tribe's existence was to guard the Demon King who was sealed at the bottom of the sea!"

When Mr. Qinglian said this, his expression suddenly became serious.

When Matthew and the other two, including Wu Yanshuang, heard this, they all showed surprise on their faces.

Obviously, this was also the first time Wu Yanshuang heard of such a thing.

"My luck wasn't good either. After I learned the whole story, I was planning to leave, but I ran into the critical moment when the Demon Lord escaped."

"Under the pleading of the sacred beast, I also took the last resort of the sea tribe with the mentality of giving it a try."

"It's just that the Demon Lord is too powerful. Even I am no match for him. In the end, with the help of the Holy Beast, I was able to forcibly seal the Demon Lord up again. However, the seal can only last for a period of time. Once the Demon Lord escapes again, there will be no other way to stop him."

"The reason I came to you is because the sacred beast told me."

After Mr. Qinglian finished speaking, he shook his head heavily and sighed.

"There is one thing I haven't figured out. There is more than one Divine Transformation cultivator in the God Prison Sea. Is it impossible for you to seal the Demon King again with your abilities?" Matthew asked after hesitating for a moment.

"It's true that there are more than just me, but they all have their own thoughts. I also told them about the Demon Lord, and no one is willing to take the risk to impose the seal, and I really can't do it alone."

When Mr. Qinglian said this, his words were full of disappointment.

It seems that she had made a lot of efforts before, but all to no avail.

This was probably the reason why she and Wu Yanshuang came here.

This time, after Mr. Qinglian finished speaking, everyone else fell silent.

What Mr. Qinglian said was almost consistent with Matthew's previous guess.

"Senior, what are your plans next?" Matthew asked after a moment of silence.

"According to my estimation, the Demon Lord will probably be able to escape again within a hundred years. By then, the entire human world will probably be unable to resist. I have already made all the efforts that should be made. I plan to use all my strength to help Shuang'er reach the God Transformation Stage before the Demon Lord escapes. Then we will directly venture into the space node!"

Matthew was slightly stunned by Mr. Qinglian’s answer.

He had thought of many possible answers from Master Qinglian, but he had never thought it would be this one.

Although he was surprised, Matthew did not show any extra emotion.

After all, this is also a solution.

After all, human power is limited. When you know that you cannot resist, leaving may be a solution.

"The holy beast told me that you have practiced a supreme secret technique of the sea clan. After finding the space node, you can use your secret technique to open the node. I wonder how young friend Ma is doing in practicing that secret technique." Seeing that Matthew did not speak, Mr. Qinglian continued.

After saying this, he looked at Matthew expectantly.

"I have made some progress in the secret method, but I'm not sure whether it can open the space node. I haven't tried it." Matthew said softly.

"There's no rush now. I've found the locations of several space nodes. I'll take you there to try them out when the time comes. But before that, if possible, please help me refine two furnaces of elixirs. I was injured when I fought with the Demon Lord last time, and I've been suppressing it with secret methods. This is not a solution, and I need to solve it as soon as possible."

Although Mr. Qinglian spoke politely, Matthew still heard a hint of command in his words.
