The Legend of the Immortal Cauldron

The old man in white looked indifferent and glanced at Matthew, as if he had already guessed Matthew's thoughts.

He didn't say much, he just walked silently to the golden ball that exuded mysterious light and stopped.

He gently raised his arm and threw the token towards the golden ball.

The token landed on the golden ball, and in an instant, a strange spiritual light shone on the surface of the token.

This aura was fleeting, and in the blink of an eye, the token sank into the golden ball without any hindrance.

Immediately afterwards, a crisp clicking sound broke the surrounding silence.

Under the two people's gaze, the golden ball began to slowly open.

The way it opens is very unique, just like a bud slowly blooming under the caress of the spring breeze, one petal after another spreading out in an orderly manner.

As the golden ball continues to unfold, each petal emits a faint light, intertwining and reflecting each other. ,

Finally, when the golden ball was completely opened, a dazzling golden light suddenly burst out from its interior.

This golden light was like the rising sun, instantly illuminating the entire space.

Matthew, who was standing aside, narrowed his eyes slightly, and purple light flashed rapidly in his eyes.

With the purple light in his eyes, he was able to penetrate the dazzling golden light and see clearly what was hidden in it.

"The mandrill... was actually taken away by you..."

Matthew couldn't help but murmur to himself. Although his voice was very soft, it contained a touch of surprise that was difficult to conceal.

Recalling that when he was trapped in that place before, Matthew also specifically asked Qingyu Jin Xiaopeng to search for traces of the mandrill.

At that time, he was thinking that if the mandrill was seriously injured, he might have a chance to kidnap it.

After his own magic power is restored, he will try to use the secret method of controlling the mandrill that Lu Jiang has already told him to see if he can successfully subdue and control this powerful monster.

After all, it was so difficult to refine the mandrill, and its strength was so powerful, how could Matthew not be moved by it.

Unfortunately, he searched everywhere at that time but could not find the mandrill, so he had to put the matter on hold for the time being.

Since setting foot on Tianling Island, Matthew has gradually forgotten about the mandrill.

I never expected that I would meet Mandrill here at this moment.

At this point, he suddenly realized that the reason why he could not find the mandrill was that this terrible monster had been quietly put away by the Mang Cang tribe.

Now, Matthew finally understood the true intention of the old man in white who brought him here, which was to use this mandrill as a bargaining chip for him to enter the shady world.

"It turns out that this monster is called a mandrill, and we have buried restrictions into its body. In this way, the young master can control this monster as he wishes."

The old man in white had been paying close attention to the changes in Matthew's expression. When the time came, he had understood in his heart and felt that it was time to get to the point.

After hearing this, Matthew nodded slightly, expressed his agreement, and then slowly said: "This generous gift from the patriarch is really precious and extremely precious. Faced with such a huge gift, it would be really hard to justify if I insist on refusing to accept it."

In fact, as early as when he saw Mandrill, Matthew had already quickly weighed the pros and cons in his heart and made a decisive decision.

After all, before this, the helpers he had, the evil beasts and Qibao were all seriously injured.

Even the sapphire Jin Xiaopeng suffered considerable trauma.

Under such circumstances, the combat effectiveness around him has been greatly weakened.

At this moment, the appearance of Mandrill can effectively fill the vacancies and deficiencies caused by the loss of combat power.

It is obvious that all these arrangements were made through discussions and decisions between the old man in white and the four elders of the clan.

It is definitely not something that just the old man in white can decide alone.

As for why he did not directly express this intention to Matthew at first, the reason is simply that he was worried that if he revealed the mandrill prematurely, he would not be able to arouse enough interest in Matthew or make him indifferent to what he said. Then it may be difficult for subsequent plans to proceed smoothly.

Therefore, he just chose to wait for a suitable opportunity before showing this mandrill in front of Matthew.

Matthew stared intently at the mandrill in front of him, carefully observing its every move, and secretly thinking about how he could get familiar with and control this mysterious and powerful existence as quickly as possible.

After a while, he slowly said: "After I master the mandrill completely, I will immediately enter the dark curtain to find out what's going on."

When the old man in white standing nearby heard Matthew's words, his tense heartstrings relaxed a little.

He nodded slightly and responded in agreement: "No problem, then I'll wait patiently outside."

After receiving Matthew's affirmative answer, the old man in white breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately afterwards, he informed Matthew in detail about the specific method of controlling the mandrill without hesitation.

After everything was explained, the old man in white flashed and quietly exited this magnificent hall.

Although the old man in white had left, he did not close the two heavy doors tightly.

On the contrary, he raised his finger lightly, and a dazzling white light instantly shot out from his fingertips and landed accurately between the cracks in the door, forming a layer of protective barrier that seemed weak but was actually extremely strong.

Matthew didn't show too much concern or dissatisfaction with this move of the old man in white.

After all, at this moment, all his thoughts were on how to control the Man-Xiao.

However, when he recalled the method that the old man in white had taught him before, which was to leave a controllable mark in the body of the Man-Xiao, Matthew couldn't help but feel a little doubtful and worried.

This method was taught to him by the old man in white himself.

Since the old man in white had the ability to teach him how to control the Man-Xiao, it meant that the other party also had the ability to control the Man-Xiao.

Thinking of this, Matthew felt a little uncomfortable.

If a being like the Man-Xiao, who had terrifying power, was really easily controlled by someone with ulterior motives, the consequences would definitely be beyond everyone's imagination.

Therefore, Matthew kept reminding himself in his heart that he must not let this terrible situation have the slightest possibility of happening.

At this moment, the Man-Xiao was still lying there quietly, unconscious in a deep coma.

Matthew stood in front of it with a solemn expression. He slowly raised his hands and began to pinch the magic formula with his ten fingers.

As Matthew muttered something, a very subtle but extremely conspicuous black light suddenly appeared at his fingertips.

Once this mysterious black light appeared, it seemed to have life and immediately spun around Matthew's fingers.

The black light spun faster and faster, forming a small vortex and emitting a heart-pounding breath.
