The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

The climb stopped for a long time. The cave didn't know how deep it was. Matthew, who was already exhausted, almost wanted to give up.

When he stopped to rest, he suddenly saw that the flickering purple light suddenly became brighter.

After gritting his teeth, Matthew decisively gave up rest and continued crawling.

After crawling for a while, Matthew's dirty face showed a smile.

He found that the purple light was getting brighter and brighter, which also meant that he was not far from the end.

Just as he thought, after climbing for a while, he reached the end.

There is a circular cave inside. It is not big, but it is just enough for Matthew to stand up.

After crawling on his stomach for so long, Matthew immediately stood up and stretched his stiff body after entering the cave.

There was a small purple cauldron lying on the ground in front of him, and the purple light emanated from the mouth of the cauldron.

"I heard the old man say before that in the world of immortality, treasures such as bottles, bowls, and tripods often have special uses." Matthew squatted next to the small tripod that was still emitting purple light and muttered to himself.

This small cauldron can emit purple light. You don't need to think about it to know that it must not be a mortal thing.

After watching for a while, Matthew reached out and grabbed Xiao Ding.

The small tripod is not big, only about the size of a palm, but it is quite heavy.

There were some patterns carved on the surface that Matthew couldn't understand, and there was nothing inside the tripod's mouth.

Matthew looked at the small cauldron that was still releasing the purple light with curiosity. He couldn't figure out how the small cauldron released the purple light.

But what he didn't notice was that a trace of blood was flowing into the small cauldron from his already worn palm.

After looking at Xiaoding for a while, Matthew felt his head getting heavier and heavier, and his consciousness gradually blurred.

He thought it must be because he was too tired and didn't eat anything.

Stumbling against the cave wall, Matthew soon fell asleep.

After falling asleep, Matthew had a long, long dream.

In the dream, he became an immortal cultivator, flying in the sky and soaring between heaven and earth.

In the blink of an eye, the river flows backwards and the color of the world changes.

As soon as he raised his hand, the rocks collapsed and the sun and moon lost their light.

Matthew in his dream also noticed that the small purple cauldron was always beside him.

Suddenly, a biting cold wind blew over, waking up Matthew who was immersed in his dream.

After waking up, Matthew felt that his whole body was weak and weak, and there was also a slight pain from the previously worn place.

After observing the surroundings blankly, Matthew's mind gradually came to his senses.

The cave was pitch black at this time, and Xiaoding no longer released purple light.

Matthew reached out and touched it. After catching the small tripod, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Stuffing the small cauldron into the leather bag on his waist, Matthew fumbled to find the entrance to the cave.

He has been here for quite some time and needs to get out as soon as possible.

Matthew spent more time out than when he came in because he was worn out in many places.

When he climbed to the edge of the binding rope, he could already see the situation outside.

"I didn't expect that I stayed in here for so long. I have to get out quickly." Seeing that the sun was already shining in at the entrance of the cave, Matthew also speeded up.

It took Matthew several hours to crawl out of the cave and back to the cliff.

As soon as he returned to the cliff, Matthew immediately ran to look for wild fruits.

He was tired and hungry now, and he had to find something to eat as soon as possible.

He was lucky and soon found a fruit tree with fruit nearby.

He took off his tattered clothes, knocked down a dozen wild fruits and wrapped them in clothes.

Returning to the cliff, Matthew couldn't wait to eat the wild fruits.

After eating seven or eight wild fruits in one go, Matthew burped.

"Forget it, let's stay for one more day. Then Immortal Wang should not miss this day either." Seeing the sky getting dark, Matthew said to himself.

Walking on mountain roads at night is an extremely dangerous thing, and Matthew doesn't want to do that kind of thing just to rush for time.

After eating, sleepiness came over him, and Matthew hid in the small cave and fell asleep.

This sleep lasted for about ten hours.

Matthew didn't wake up until the sun fell on him.

After more than ten hours of rest, Matthew's energy also recovered somewhat.

After coming out of the small cave and stretching, he held his stomach and ran to the side to deal with it.

After feeling comfortable, Matthew first ate all the remaining wild fruits, then collected the rope and tied it to himself.

When preparing to leave, Matthew specially untied the leather bag hanging on his waist to check the condition of Tianqinghua.

"It's only been a day, why is the azure flower wilted?" Looking at the azure flower taken out of the leather bag, Matthew also had a look of confusion on his face.

However, he didn't think much of it.

It was also his first time to pick the elixir of azure flower, so he didn't know much about it.

As far as he knew, if some elixirs were not stored properly after being picked, the spiritual energy inside would be lost quickly.

After stuffing the azure flower back into the leather bag, Matthew stopped staying and walked down the mountain.

It is easy to go up the mountain, but difficult to go down the mountain.

It took a lot of effort for Matthew to get down from Dawang Mountain.

After finding a creek, taking a few sips of water, and filling the kettle with water, Matthew rushed towards Wangxian City.

It took him two days to enter the mountain this time, so shopkeeper Chen might be in a hurry.

It was already dusk when he returned to Wangxian City. Matthew did not go home, but went straight to Baiyao Hall.

When he arrived at Baiyao Hall, Shopkeeper Chen was sitting alone in the shop dozing off. Normally it would be closed at this time, so since Shopkeeper Chen was still open, he was probably waiting for him.

After entering the door, Matthew shouted: "Shopkeeper, I'm back."

After shopkeeper Chen heard Matthew's voice, he immediately woke up from his sleep, walked quickly to Matthew and said, "You must have suffered a lot this time. I will have someone make you a set of clothes another day."

Shopkeeper Chen is a good person and knows how to watch people's words. Looking at the smile on Matthew's face, you can tell that everything is on track. The polite words just now were the most useful to Matthew.

"It's not a problem, it's just that there are more thorns on the mountain. This is the sky blue flower." Matthew waved his hand and took off the leather bag from his waist and handed it to shopkeeper Chen.

As for the small purple cauldron, Matthew knew that it was not a mortal object, so naturally he would not take it with him. He had hidden it in a secret place after entering the city.

Shopkeeper Chen took the leather bag, opened it and checked it, then patted Matthew on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, you are really reliable in doing things. You haven't eaten yet. There is still some food in the back hall, so go and eat."

Shopkeeper Chen doesn't care what the condition of the azure flower is. As long as he gets it, he can just bring it to Master Wang Xian.

"Okay, I'll leave from behind after eating." Matthew was not polite, nodded and smiled.

The few wild fruits he had eaten earlier had long since turned into a few puddles of urine, and Matthew was so hungry that his chest pressed against his back. If you hear there is food to eat, you will refuse.

When Matthew went to the back hall to eat, shopkeeper Chen hurriedly closed the door and left Baiyao Hall.

There were all leftovers from the meals in the back hall, but Matthew didn't care and wolfed down everything.

When I left, I didn’t forget to take the remaining two steamed buns with me.
