The Legend of the Immortal Cauldron

Matthew stood in front of the cave entrance, staring into the depths of darkness.

He slowly extended his spiritual sense into the cave, trying to explore the situation inside.

Under his control, the spiritual sense, like an invisible wave, quietly penetrated the shadows in the cave.

After a while, Matthew's spiritual sense had roughly figured out the structure of the cave.

He found that this cave was not as simple as it looked, and it was complicated inside. Matthew retracted his spiritual sense and stepped into the cave.

The air in the cave was damp and dull, and there was soft soil under his feet, covered with various weeds.

These weeds emitted a faint green light in the dim light.

Matthew went deep into the cave, and suddenly heard a faint sound in his ears.

He stopped, held his breath, and listened carefully.

It was a low and intermittent sound, like something rubbing against the ground, or some creature breathing.

As the sound became clearer and clearer, a fishy smell came to his nose.

Matthew looked normal, he knew that this smell usually meant the presence of monsters.

However, he was not worried, as he had already known the monster inside through his spiritual sense.

Strangely enough, after entering, Matthew found that his spiritual sense was suppressed.

He continued to move forward, and the deeper he went into the cave, the stronger the suppression of his spiritual sense became.

It didn't seem like a restriction, but rather like an invisible force was restricting his perception, preventing him from freely exploring the surrounding environment as usual.

He couldn't help but be a little surprised, because he had never encountered such a situation.

In the past, when his spiritual sense was restricted, it was because of the existence of those restrictions, but this time the Qinglong Breaking Ban Mirror in his arms did not react at all.

He summoned nine Biyue Qiuguang swords around him, emitting a soft light and illuminating the surrounding space.

With a finger, he released a ball of spiritual light and flew forward. After illuminating the passage ahead, Matthew walked forward.

After walking for about an incense stick, Matthew came to a cave.

The cave was very large, and there were holes all over the surrounding rock walls.

Inside the cave, there was a ball-like thing that was curled up in an earthy yellow color.

A low sound was constantly coming from its body.

This was the sound he heard when he entered the cave.

"The faceless insect."

Matthew looked at the curled thing and chuckled.

The faceless insect he was talking about was a strange insect. This insect had no head or tail, and looked like a worm with segments on its body.

The faceless insect was very weak, and any cultivator in the foundation-building stage could easily kill it.

However, this insect was born good at digging holes.

It could dig very deep underground.

Moreover, the faceless insect also liked to hide things like minerals buried underground in its body and bring them to its nest.

At this moment, a large number of minerals of different colors were scattered on the ground of the cave.

Some of them were the purple jade that Matthew was looking for.

Seeing this, Matthew smiled.

A circle of spiritual light drifted out, and all the minerals on the ground of the cave disappeared wherever the spiritual light passed.

After collecting the things on the ground, Matthew hooked his finger lightly, and the faceless insect curled up on the ground and dared not move was bound by an invisible force and brought to Matthew.

Then, a green light flashed on Matthew's wrist, and Su Lin appeared beside him.

"Tell it to take us to find that kind of purple crystal. As long as you take us to that place, we will release it."

Su Lin heard Matthew's voice as soon as he came out.

Hearing this, he immediately made a squeaking sound in his mouth.

The trembling faceless insect relaxed slightly after hearing Su Lin's voice.

There were intermittent low sounds in the body.

Then, the body of the faceless insect twisted slightly, and the yellow light lit up, and some stones and crystals fell out of its body.

Su Lin was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and immediately used his magic power to carry all the things that fell to Matthew.

"Master, it asked you what kind of purple crystal you are looking for."

Su Lin said softly.

It's no wonder that Su Lin translated it this way.

The dozen or so stones that fell out of the body of the phaseless insect were all purple, and even he didn't know which one Matthew wanted.

Matthew reached out and grabbed a piece of purple crystal and said, "This is it."

Su Lin saw this and his mouth squeaked again.

After the phaseless insect responded with a low voice, Su Lin said to Matthew, "Master, it said it can take us there. However, it can't go to the innermost part. Because there is a terrible thing in there."

"Ask it what terrible thing it is and how strong it is." Matthew nodded slightly.

Next, Su Lin's mouth kept squeaking.

And the phaseless insect kept responding with a low voice.

Matthew didn't understand the meaning of it at all.

This time, Su Lin communicated with the phaseless insect for a long time before stopping.

"Master, although this insect has some intelligence, it is too low. It can't even tell what is inside." Su Lin shook his head helplessly.
