The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

When the hourglass went to the end and Matthew was sent out of the mysterious space, he still felt that he was still unfulfilled.

"It would be nice to get more pieces, so I can stay in there longer." Matthew licked his lips and said to himself.

Turning to look at the hourglass placed in the room, Matthew shook his head.

His hourglass is based on a seven-day calculation. From the time he enters the mysterious space to the time he comes out, there are still five days left in the hourglass.

In other words, only two days had passed outside after he entered the mysterious space.

According to the speed of time passing in the mysterious space, it is equivalent to Matthew staying in it for [-] hours.

But Matthew was still not satisfied with this and wanted to stay longer.

While Matthew was sighing, the formation disk in his storage bag suddenly made a buzzing sound.

After Matthew was stunned for a moment, he took out the array disk and started checking it.

After thinking about it for a while, he realized that it was because someone broke into the psychedelic array that it happened.

After releasing his consciousness, Matthew saw Li Mu wandering around the house.

"This illusion formation isn't very strong. Why is Li Mu wandering around like a headless fly?" Matthew said to himself in confusion.

With the intention of testing the effect of the magic circle, Matthew did not immediately remove the magic circle, but sat here and watched Li Mu's actions.

However, Matthew was disappointed.

It only took less than a stick of incense for Li Mu to walk out of the illusion array and come to him.

"Senior brother, when did you set up the formation? I almost couldn't get out just now." Seeing Matthew holding the formation disk and looking at him, Li Mu said with a wry smile.

"I just got it in exchange for contribution points. I haven't figured it out yet, so you came in just after setting it up." Matthew chuckled.

"Senior brother, I don't know. Those formations that can be redeemed with contribution points are not good things. The truly powerful formations are in the hands of those formation masters, and it is very troublesome to arrange them." Regarding Matthew's explanation, Li Mu didn't have the slightest doubt.

"So that's it. I also changed the array on a whim for fun." Matthew nodded after hearing this.

After saying that, he put the array aside and stretched out his hand to signal Li Mu to sit down.

"Senior brother, the current situation is not good." Li Mu said with a sad look on his face after sitting down.

"How to say?"

Matthew knew that Li Mu must have something to say when he came to him.

"In the past few days, news about the tense fighting on the front line has spread throughout the entire sect. According to the information I have gathered, more than [-] people are currently arranged to go to the mine battlefield." When Li Mu mentioned the mine battlefield, he suddenly paused. After a moment, he looked up at Matthew.

Seeing the anxiety in Li Mu's expression, Matthew suddenly thought of what Liu Kang had said to him back then.

"Among these eight thousand people, many of them are casual cultivators in Wangxian City, right?" Matthew asked with a soft breath.

"Yes, it seems that senior brother has noticed it. Apart from the newly joined casual cultivators, the rest of the eight thousand people this time are old people who have been in the sect for more than ten years or decades. . These people, without exception, all have poor qualifications and their cultivation has been stagnant for many years." Li Mu said with a worried look on his face.

"It seems that Qingyu Valley has already planned to use people like us as cannon fodder. Senior brother, I found out that someone has started to organize casual cultivators from Wangxian City. Do we want to participate?" Seeing that Matthew did not reply. , Li Mu continued to ask.

"Organizing casual cultivators, are they planning to defect out of Qingyu Valley?" Upon hearing this, Matthew frowned slightly.

It is a serious crime to defect from the sect. Once caught, it will not only be as simple as losing your cultivation.

There will also be extremely severe torture, and it is simply impossible to survive or die.

"It is definitely impossible to defect to the sect. No one can bear such consequences. I think they mean to unite. If the sect really uses us casual cultivators as cannon fodder, everyone will take care of each other." Li Mu obviously said Very excited about this matter.

"Who is the organizer? Even you know about this. Will the sect just let it go?" Matthew asked after pondering for a moment.

"I don't know who the organizer is yet, but what my senior brother said makes sense. It's really unreasonable to put this kind of thing on the surface like this." When asked by Matthew, Li Mu immediately sobered up and scratched his head. said.

"Let's see about this later. Our task is to refine the elixir behind. I'm afraid it won't be our turn to charge into battle." Matthew shook his head and said.

He doesn't have much interest in this so-called casual cultivator organization. Even if the sect really uses him as cannon fodder, he will definitely not sit still and wait for death.

When it comes to acting alone or with a group of people, Matthew prefers the former.

Later, Li Mu reported all the news he had gathered in the past few days to Matthew.

When he handed the spirit stone he had obtained to Matthew, he suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "There is something I forgot to mention. In three days, there will be an exchange meeting in Qingfengjian. It is organized by a sect. Senior brother, are you interested? Get involved.”

"An exchange meeting held by the sect?" This was the first time Matthew heard that the sect would hold such a thing.

"The sect will hold an exchange meeting a few months before every sect competition. This time it coincides with the mine battlefield. I heard that the sect also came up with a lot of good things." Li Mu nodded and said.

"Of course I have to go take a look. How long will the exchange last?" Matthew asked.

While talking, he took out a cloth bag and handed it to Li Mu.

This included the dividends promised to Li Mu, which Matthew delivered on the spot every time.

"You have seven days, call me senior brother then." Li Mu said with a smile on his face after taking the spiritual stone bag handed over by Matthew.

After seeing Li off, Matthew sat there and thought for a while before taking out the small tripod.

After pouring some spiritual stones into the small cauldron and allowing the air mass to absorb enough spiritual energy, Matthew took out the box containing the Wasted Qi Condensing Pill.

Whether he really goes to the mine battlefield to support alchemy or simply serves as cannon fodder, Matthew can only take it one step at a time.

All he can do now is to improve his cultivation as much as possible and enhance his ability to protect himself.

While Xiao Ding was refining the waste elixir, Matthew was not idle either. He took out the recipe for the Qi Condensation elixir and began to analyze it.

He had never practiced the Qi Condensing Pill, and Zhu Que had not taught him.

Since it was temporarily inconvenient for him to enter the alchemy room, he could only deduce the process of alchemy in his mind.

He learned this from Zhu Que. The more precious the elixir, the harder it is to find the elixir.

Therefore, a real alchemy master will perform countless deductions after obtaining the alchemy formula.

Although Matthew has some talent in alchemy, he still has a long way to go before becoming a true alchemy master.

Ever since Zhu Que taught him this method, Matthew has always regarded it as the secret to improving his alchemy skills.
