The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

After the collision, Jiuyou Tianjue Snake twisted its body and gave up entangled with the stone snake.

But when the Jiuyou Tianjue Snake crawled out a short distance, the stone snake's body was shattered inch by inch.

In just a few breaths, the stone snake turned into a pile of gravel.

At this time, Jiuyou Tianjue Snake opened its mouth, and a suction force came out.

I saw the soul of a long, dark snake floating out of the rubble.

Although the long snake's soul was struggling, it was still sucked into the mouth of the Jiuyou Tianjue Snake.

After licking the snake letter, Jiuyou Tianjue Snake continued to crawl towards another stone pillar.

Under Matthew's gaze, Jiuyou Tianjue Snake successively solved the stone snakes transformed from the four stone pillars, and then absorbed the souls of the long snakes that floated out one by one.

When the last stone snake turned into rubble, the floor in the middle fell, revealing a pit.

Matthew put away the Jiuyou Tianjue Snake, took protective measures, and jumped into the pit.

This was the only way he could leave, and there was no room for him to think too much.

The pothole is not deep, but it only drops dozens of feet to the bottom.

The bottom of the pit was surrounded by thick layers of soil. Matthew stretched out his hand and knocked on the surrounding soil for a while, then aimed a punch at one side.

"boom!"

After the soil layer was smashed, a dark passage was revealed.

After waving his sleeves to disperse the raised dust, a fireball popped up in the passage.

Seeing that the rock walls around the passage were uneven and the ground was even more pitted, Matthew's eyes showed a hint of joy.

When the pothole appeared, he felt something was not right.

When he saw this passage appear, he knew that it was definitely not made by the people of the Elixir Island themselves.

The people on Elixir Island have set up a lot of restrictions in the forbidden area, but so far, Matthew has only encountered illusions.

If he wants to come, or he is lucky, there are no restrictions on where he comes.

Either that or the restrictions here have been destroyed.

After continuously releasing several spells into the passage without encountering any danger, Matthew entered with confidence.

He misses the puppet a little now. If there was a puppet, he could let the puppet explore the way in front.

"Ding Ling, can you control the puppets in my storage bag?" Matthew suddenly asked via voice transmission.

"You can control one temporarily, but the time is only five hours at most." Ding Ling responded.

"Five hours is enough, let's get started."

Matthew thought for a moment and then made his decision.

After speaking, he reached out and patted a storage bag on his waist. After a flash of white light, a humanoid puppet holding a short knife appeared in front of him.

Purple light appeared in Matthew's palm, and he stretched out his hand to press on the puppet's body.

When the purple light sank into the puppet's body, the puppet raised its head.

Driving the puppet to walk quickly forward, he followed leisurely behind.

The passage is winding and winding, and the ground is broken in some places.

However, after walking for so long, I didn't encounter a single restriction.

"what."

When Matthew came to a horizontal ditch and was about to drive the puppet to cross it, he saw something that seemed to be under the horizontal ditch.

Confused, he fired several fireballs into the ditch.

Under the light of the fire, he saw a small hole in the wall of Henggou.

After visual inspection, the hole was just big enough for the puppet to enter. After a little thought, Matthew made the puppet jump into the ditch.

When the puppet was about to fall to the entrance of the cave, the puppet's short knife stabbed the rock wall, and the falling figure stopped.

After shaking slightly, the puppet jumped into the hole.

Through the consciousness attached to the puppet, Matthew knew.

The hole is not big, but the space inside is not small.

It's just that the cave is very deep. After he drove the puppet to walk for a while, he reached the limit that his consciousness could bear.

Matthew looked up at the passage across the ditch, and then at the hole where the puppet entered.

After a slight hesitation, Matthew jumped into the horizontal ditch.

With a slight shake, others appeared in the cave.

This place has already been explored with his spiritual consciousness. There is no danger, and he doesn't need to worry too much.

When Matthew was exploring the cave, somewhere in the forbidden area.

Qingyunzi and the masked man stood behind Black Soul.

At this moment, Black Soul was holding an ancient bronze mirror in his hand. As his fingers continued to slide, the scene on the mirror was constantly changing.

"The cultivator Li you mentioned is not anywhere in the forbidden area." After a moment, Black Soul said softly.

He had used secret methods to explore almost all places in the forbidden area, but could not find any trace of Matthew.

Even he himself found this strange.

Matthew followed Qingyunzi and the masked man to the forbidden area. He knew this best.

When the three people appeared, he had already seen them through the ancient bronze mirror in his hand.

But as for why Matthew suddenly disappeared, it was very puzzling to him.

"Elder Black Soul, could it be that Fellow Daoist Li has been banned and killed somewhere?" The masked man asked after hesitating for a moment.

"None of the restrictions in the forbidden area have been touched. On the contrary, there was something abnormal in the fantasy realm before. But I just checked and there is no one in the fantasy realm." Black Soul said with suspicion in his eyes.

A big living person suddenly disappears in a forbidden area. This matter can be big or small.

But as the guardian of the forbidden area, Dark Soul must find out whether Matthew is dead or alive.

If you are dead, you must find the body, and if you are alive, you must find Matthew.

Otherwise, even if he is a Nascent Soul cultivator, he will not be able to bear the blame from the higher-ups.

"You two go outside to deal with the beast tide first, and I will go find the monk alone." Black Soul said to the two of them after putting away the ancient bronze mirror.

"As ordered!"

The two bowed and responded.
