The Legend of the Immortal Cauldron

One day, Matthew, who was meditating, was suddenly awakened by a loud noise.

He had lived in Wangxian City for more than ten years, and this was the first time he heard such a loud noise.

After finishing his practice, Matthew immediately went out to see what was going on.

Not only him, but also all the neighbors nearby went out.

When Matthew just came out, the loud noise appeared again.

However, this time Matthew saw a brilliant firework light up above his head.

"Fireworks?"

Looking at the fleeting fireworks, Matthew muttered to himself.

Even during the New Year, there were few fireworks in the city, unless something big happened in Xiancheng.

And now the only thing that could make Xiancheng set off fireworks was the arrival of the four major sects.

While Matthew was thinking, more fireworks began to set off, and some people who knew what was going on all ran towards the square.

After estimating the time in his mind, Matthew also knew that it was almost time for the four major sects to arrive.

For Wangxian City, the arrival of the four major sects was nothing short of a grand event.

Now the city is so lively, even if Matthew wants to practice in peace, he probably can't do it.

Such a rare scene, Matthew naturally wants to see it.

His cultivation has reached the sixth level of Qi Refining now, and it's time to go out for some fresh air after staying in the room for so long.

After returning to the house and packing up his things, Matthew went out.

At this moment, the streets are already crowded with people, not only cultivators, but also those mortals put down their work and go to observe the four major sects.

Even those shops that are open all year round are closed.

When Matthew was about to follow the crowd to the square, he saw someone passing by the roof.

With a thought in his mind, he performed the light body technique and jumped onto the roof.

Standing on the high ground, at a glance, it was full of densely packed heads.

Jumping lightly in the room, Matthew soon came to the vicinity of the square.

This place has long been surrounded by water.

After jumping to the top of the tallest building nearby, Matthew saw that there was an empty area in the middle of the square.

"Are these the people from the four major sects? They don't have three heads and six arms." When he arrived, the four major sects had already arrived.

There were four tents at the other end of the square, and there was a red cloth at the door of each tent that extended all the way to the square.

There were four long tables at the four corners of the square, with one person sitting behind each table, and dozens of people standing behind the four people.

There was a person holding a large banner behind each table.

"Qingyu Valley... Xuanwu Sect... Jiuxing Sect,... Baishou Mountain." Matthew read out the words on the four banners in turn.

While Matthew was observing the situation in the square, some monks began to go to the front of the four major sects.

The distance was too far, and Matthew could not hear what those people were saying at all.

He only saw some people putting their hands on the spirit bead, while some were taken to the tent behind.

Of course, some people left with their heads down in frustration.

Matthew was in the mood of watching the fun, just thinking that it would broaden his horizons.

But when he saw a tall young man in white clothes appear in front of the table where Qingyu Valley was, his face suddenly changed.

The young man in white clothes was none other than the one he wanted to kill, Liu Xingjian!

"Don't be selected, don't be selected..." Matthew kept repeating in his heart when he saw Liu Xingjian put his hand on the spirit bead.

But when he vaguely saw two rays of light flashing in the spirit bead, his heart skipped a beat.

With dual spiritual roots, how could Qingyu Valley let such a person go?

As expected, after Liu Xingjian received a token, he was taken away by a Qingyu Valley disciple.

Seeing this scene, Matthew clenched his hands and his breathing became rapid.

"What should I do..."

Matthew gritted his teeth and roared in his heart, and the scenes of his time with the old man kept appearing in his mind.

When the picture was fixed on the unwilling look of the old man before his death, Matthew made a decision.

The old man's revenge must be avenged, and it can only be done by him personally.

Once he missed this opportunity, Matthew didn't know if he would have the chance to meet Liu Xingjian again in this life.

So, he decided to join Qingyu Valley.

Only by being in the same sect with Liu Xingjian, he would have the opportunity to take revenge.

As for the danger Liu Kang mentioned, it had been thrown out of Matthew's mind.

In his opinion, if he couldn't even take revenge for the old man, he might as well not cultivate.

After making up his mind, Matthew came down from the roof and began to squeeze into the crowd.

He knew that Qingyu Valley recruited casual cultivators. In addition to outstanding talents and gathering the required spiritual medicines, it also recruited people with special skills.

Matthew was not good at spiritual medicines and spiritual roots, so all he could rely on was alchemy.

Although there were many people around the square, there were not many cultivators who actually went to the front of the four major sects.

Matthew squeezed in while shouting "Excuse me".

After a lot of effort and enduring countless white eyes, Matthew finally came to the innermost.

Seeing several people standing in front of the table in Qingyu Valley, Matthew immediately walked over.

"Senior Yun, I have already collected all the spiritual medicines needed by your sect." The person in front took out a wooden box and flattered.

"Well, not bad." The person called Senior Yun was an old man with white hair and beard but ruddy face.

Matthew had seen on the notice that the leaders of the four major sects this time were all Jindan cultivators.

He wondered if the person in front of him was the Jindan cultivator, but there was no fluctuation of mana on this person, and he didn't look like the legendary Jindan cultivator.

Of course, Matthew also knew that there were too many things in the world of immortal cultivation that could not be judged by common sense.

After the old man finished speaking, a man standing behind him wearing Qingyu Valley clothing came out and took the person who offered medicine away.

"Your spiritual roots are not good, and there are no spiritual medicines. You are not destined to be with my Qingyu Valley, please go back." When it was the second person's turn, the old man just checked it briefly and said the words of rejection.

Although the man was disappointed, he still bowed respectfully to the old man and slowly stepped back.

Except for the person who contributed spiritual medicine before being selected, the next few people were all rejected.

This made Matthew feel a little strange. He clearly remembered that Liu Kang said that the standards for selecting disciples by the four major sects this time would be much looser.

But at present, it was completely different from what Liu Kang said.

After waiting for a while, it was finally Matthew's turn.

"How does this young friend plan to join our Qingyu Valley?" The old man surnamed Yun asked Matthew with a smile.

Although this old man is from a big sect, he has no airs at all. Instead, he is friendly to everyone, giving people a sense of closeness.

"I have some experience in alchemy, and I want to join your sect with this." Matthew bowed and replied neither servile nor arrogant.

"Alchemists are rare among casual cultivators. You can go and test their alchemy skills with them." The old man surnamed Yun nodded slightly and said.

After speaking, a person dressed in Qingyu Valley clothes came out immediately and took Matthew away from the square.

Now, Matthew knew that not all the people taken away by the disciples of Qingyu Valley were selected, but they were going to other places for testing.

The so-called testing place is one of the four tents at the back.
