The Legend of the Immortal Cauldron

Matthew, who had no place to go for the time being, was not in a hurry to leave.

The spiritual energy here was quite rich, and he wanted to practice here for a while.

Although he didn't know where he was, Liu Xingjian had already been solved for him, so it didn't matter where he practiced.

After selecting a few magic tools from the storage bag, Matthew sacrificed and refined them one by one.

Then he used liquefied iron to temper these magic tools.

After doing these things, Matthew began to swallow the Qi Condensation Pill.

Staying in the tree hole to practice hard, Matthew gradually put aside what he had encountered before.

Spring went and autumn came, and before he knew it, Matthew had been here for five years.

For cultivators, it is common to retreat for several years or even more than ten years.

Five years is not long, but it is not short either.

Without having to worry about pills, his cultivation level gradually improved. In five years, Matthew also advanced from the ninth level of Qi Refining to the eleventh level of Qi Refining.

In addition to refining pills, during these five years, Matthew also developed the habit of reading books every day.

He had read all the books in the storage bag several times.

In particular, he read the experience booklet that the old man surnamed He left for Cui'er the most.

The only thing that made Matthew feel sorry was that he didn't get the storage bags of Zhu Que and Yun Fuzi, otherwise he would have gained more.

In a book of miscellaneous notes of the blue-robed monk, he found a thin animal skin map sandwiched inside.

The terrain drawn on the map was something he had never seen before, and it didn't look like the place he was in now.

In his spare time, Matthew would leave the tree hole and wander around for a while.

He found that this mountain forest was very large, and there were a large number of monsters living in it.

In these five years, Matthew also killed a lot of monsters.

Some of them were killed by him because they accidentally broke into the psychedelic array, and some were killed by him when he met them when he was out and attacked him.

These five years were the most stable time he had ever lived since he embarked on the immortal path. There were no so-called tasks, no other trivial matters, and he lived according to his own ideas every day.

There was another unexpected situation, that is, the purple-striped python egg bought from the battlefield trading area was eaten by the bug after he forgot it in the spirit beast bag for a long time.

When Matthew remembered the purple-striped python egg and checked it, there was only a little residue left in the spirit beast bag.

Matthew didn't know the origin of the bug. After thinking about it, he used the newly learned secret technique of recognizing the master and turned the bug into his own spirit bug.

As for the purple-striped python egg that was eaten, he didn't care. That kind of monster didn't have much breeding value. If it was eaten, it was eaten.

The only thing that made Matthew headache was that he would contact Wu Kun from time to time in the past five years.

But he still underestimated the arrogance of this demon. Not only did he not gain anything, but he was scolded by the other party several times.

"Boy, do you want to say what you said before?" Today, Matthew just connected with Wu Kun, and the other party immediately started to mock.

"I have something unclear, I hope you can help me solve one or two puzzles." Matthew shook his head and said.

"What benefit can I get from solving my doubts?" Wu Kun sneered.

"Don't you want to see the outside world? As long as you answer my questions, I can let you see it for a month." Matthew knew that Wu Kun would not agree to it so easily, so he said the words he had thought of in advance.

"Are you serious?" Sure enough, when Wu Kun heard that he could see it for a month, he was immediately moved.

For it, there is no difference between being locked up in the purple tripod all day and being locked up in a pit.

Without asking for freedom, for a person who has been trapped for so long, being able to see the environment outside is already an extremely rare thing.

"Really." Matthew nodded.

"Ask, as long as it does not involve the secrets of the deity, I can answer you." Wu Kun said after his voice softened a little.

"Before, Zhu Que said that I was a container for you to take over. Don't you have a body? Why do you want to take over another body?" Matthew frowned and asked.

This question has been weighing on his mind for a long time.

"With my cultivation, I will definitely be suppressed by the interface power of this world once I escape. The reason why I was sealed here is because I had to go down to the world for some reasons. Without the blessing of special secret methods, my main body will leave this world immediately after escaping. The original soul was a backup to stay in this world, but it's a pity that the soul that I cultivated for so long was inexplicably destroyed by you in the end." After listening to Matthew's question, Wu Kun was silent for a while and said slowly.

"There are many people with outstanding talents in the world, why did Zhu Que choose me?" Matthew asked with a frown.

He has the qualification of eight spiritual roots, which is rarer than the heavenly spiritual roots, but he is a real waste of cultivation. Zhu Que actually chose him as a container for Wu Kun's soul, which made Matthew unable to understand.

"You are probably the only one in the world with eight spiritual roots. When Zhu Que reported your talent to me, I asked him to keep you and bring you here. Although your talent is very slow to cultivate, it is very effective in dealing with heavenly tribulations." Wu Kun's words shocked Matthew.

Matthew knew that Wu Kun must not have finished what he wanted to know. Since he had already got what he wanted to know, he did not ask any more questions.

"Although I promised you, I will still cut off contact when I am cultivating." Matthew said after a silence.

"What secrets can a small Qi-refining cultivator have? Why is he so mysterious?" After hearing Matthew's words, Wu Kun couldn't help but mock again.

However, he didn't say anything against it.

After all, no matter how high their cultivation level is, everyone has their own secrets.

After finishing the conversation, he came out of the tree hole.

After putting away the psychedelic array, he left the area.

After staying here for five years, just like before, the lower-grade Qi-condensing pills also lost their effect. He could only choose to leave here and find other ways to improve his cultivation.

He had already explored the nearby areas and knew that there was a small path that could lead to other places.

"Boy, I advise you to find a way to get rid of the strong medicinal smell on your body. Once you meet a cultivator with a high cultivation level, you will be able to detect your abnormality at a glance." When Matthew was walking slowly along the path, Wu Kun's voice suddenly rang in his ears.

"What medicinal smell? Why can't I smell it?" Matthew stopped and asked after putting his hand on his nose and sniffing.

"You have been relying on pills to improve your cultivation for a long time. Over time, some drug residues have accumulated in your body. Under normal circumstances, these drug residues will slowly be discharged from the body. But you have taken too many pills, causing the drug residues to begin to emit medicinal gas. People with low cultivation will naturally not notice it, but as long as they reach the Nascent Soul stage, they can see that you are different at a glance." This was the first time Matthew heard what Wu Kun said, but he did not doubt it too much.

Even if the quality of the pill is good, it will more or less leave some drug residues in the body after taking it.

But as for the term medicinal gas, this was the first time he heard it.
