The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Although Zhu Que didn't say it explicitly, Matthew could already see that the real situation was worse than he knew.

"To tell you the truth, the mineral vein is just a pretext, a pretext that allows other forces to blatantly invade us. Their real goal is the land beneath us." After Zhu Que put away the map, he patted Matthew said the shoulder.

"This..." Matthew was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

He had indeed simplified things before, thinking that other forces just wanted to compete for the mineral veins.

After listening to Zhu Que's words, Matthew suddenly realized.

"I arranged for you and Li Mu to go to the mine battlefield. Instead of waiting for the enemy to arrive here, it is better to leave Qingyu Valley and get there before making plans." Zhu Que continued.

After chatting with Matthew for a few more words, Zhu Que let him leave.

After coming out from Zhu Que, Matthew felt a little complicated.

On the surface, my master only knows how to make alchemy, but his mind is extremely delicate.

Although Zhu Que didn't say it explicitly, Matthew could tell from between the lines that Zhu Que had plans to leave Qingyu Valley.

"Perhaps, going to the mine battlefield is the first step of the master's plan." Matthew thought to himself.

On the way down the mountain, Matthew met Li Mu who was waiting for him.

Matthew did not tell Li Mu what Zhu Que told him, he just found an excuse to deal with it for a few words and then went back.

Whether it was Zhu Que's plan or Qingyu Valley's arrangement, Matthew didn't want to get involved too much.

He just wanted to practice quietly. If he couldn't satisfy himself here, he would have to find another way out.

After returning to his residence and opening the magic circle, Matthew took out a thick book.

This is the roster he bought for a large sum of money to go to the mine battlefield.

"Sure enough, he is there!" After browsing for a while, Matthew said to himself with a hint of joy on his face.

He saw Liu Xingjian's name on the booklet.

Matthew had already planned to find an opportunity to test Liu Xingjian's strength after arriving at the mine battlefield.

The current situation may change at any time, and he no longer intends to wait any longer.

"Liu Xingjian is still at the eleventh level of Qi refining. I need to practice as soon as possible."

After saying that, he put away the booklet, Matthew took out a low-grade Qi Condensing Pill, swallowed it and began to refine the medicine.

As time passed, it was time to set off for the mine battlefield.

Under Zhu Que's arrangement, Matthew and Li Mu entered the Qingyun Boat early.

With a team of eight thousand people, Qingyu Valley also dispatched ten Qingyun boats, flying towards the mine battlefield in a mighty manner.

The faces of those who got on the Qingyun Boat were more or less filled with a trace of anxiety, hesitation and confusion.

They didn't know if they would have a chance to return to Qingyu Valley during this trip.

Each Qingyun boat is staffed by three alchemy monks.

He knew the leader of the Qingyun boat that Matthew and the others were on, and it was Yun Fuzi who brought him into Qingyu Valley.

However, when I saw Yun Fuzi again, the kind smile was no longer visible on his face, replaced by unconcealable sadness.

Qingyu Valley is still a long way from the mine battlefield, which allows these people enough time to adjust.

This is Matthew’s second time riding the Qingyun Boat.

It was completely different from the first time he sat down. This time, his heart was also full of confusion about the future.

Since Zhu Que told him last time, he has never looked for him again.

However, Matthew noticed that the old man surnamed He and Cui'er were also present this time.

Not only was Matthew unsure, but so was Li Mu.

The two rooms where they rested were next to each other, and Li Mu would come to Matthew from time to time to tell him some news he had found out.

However, most of the so-called news now are just conjectures of others.

I am afraid that the real truth can only be known when we go to the mine battlefield.

While marching on the mine battlefield, Matthew kept swallowing Qi Condensing Pills, and his cultivation finally broke through to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

The breakthrough in cultivation relieved Matthew's depressed mood.

On this day, Matthew, who was meditating, was suddenly awakened by a violent vibration.

Confused, he immediately put away his things and walked outside.

After opening the door, I saw Li Mu coming out at the same time.

Not only him, but also everyone in the other rooms came out at this time.

Everyone's faces were filled with confusion and confusion.

"Thief, dare you!"

At this moment, a roar like thunder rang out.

Listening carefully, Matthew found that the sound was actually made by Yun Fuzi.

His thoughts changed rapidly, and Matthew immediately pulled Li Mu and ran towards the deck.

When he came to the deck, he saw all the Qingyun boats stopped.

Beside Qingyun Zhou, there were still some people standing in the air.

These are the alchemy monks who escorted Qingyun Zhou this time, and Matthew did not pay too much attention to them.

What really concerned him was the giant bloody centipedes that appeared all around and were comparable in size to Qingyun Zhou.

These giant centipedes have three pairs of transparent thin wings on their backs and huge heads.

Many people turned pale with fear after seeing the huge abyss-like mouth full of sharp fangs.

And there are densely packed people standing on the backs of these giant centipedes.

"Flying blood centipede!" Matthew swallowed hard and whispered to himself.

He had only seen this flying blood centipede in books, and this was the first time he saw a real living creature with his own eyes.

The size of this flying blood centipede is much larger than what is described in the book.

"Did these things just attack Qingyun Zhou?" Matthew thought with some uncertainty.

When Matthew was confused, Yun Fuzi waved the whisk in his hand.

A white leather chain flashed out.

The white chain was so fast that Matthew didn't even see how it passed by.

I saw a flying blood centipede closest to Yun Fuzi being hit by a white leather chain, and its huge body began to break apart.

The monks standing on the back of the flying blood centipede jumped towards the flying blood centipede next to them.

After Yun Fuzi took action, other pill-forming monks also took action.

This was a one-sided battle. Although the Flying Blood Centipede was huge, it was like paper in front of the Danjie monks.

As for the monks standing on the back of the flying blood centipede, there was no resistance at all.

Matthew saw with his own eyes that an ordinary flying sword killed more than a dozen monks in an instant.

There was also a golden brick, which smashed everything it touched into pieces.

This is the first time Matthew has seen the Danjie monk take action at such a close distance.

It left an indelible mark on his heart.

It only took less than half an hour for those monks, including all the flying blood centipedes, to be strangled to death by the pill-forming monks from Qingyu Valley.

Seeing that the alchemy monks in the sect had such methods, the monks who had been frightened before clapped their hands and applauded, completely forgetting their previous embarrassing state.
