The Legend of the Immortal Cauldron

Seeing Matthew being so careful, Cui'er beside him also took out a small emerald green sword, and followed Matthew's example and took out a few talismans and stuck them on her body.

"Ka La!"

When everyone was on guard, a crisp cracking sound rang out.

Matthew's first reaction was to look behind him.

He was sure that the sound came from behind him.

Not only Matthew, but everyone else's attention also turned to the direction of the passage they had walked through.

Following this, there was another series of cracking sounds.

"Something drilled out of the rock wall!" With Zhu Que's light shout.

Matthew also saw a black monster insect drilled out of the rock wall.

"Black rock scorpion!" Cui'er exclaimed with her hand covering her mouth after seeing the black monster insect.

Matthew had seen this black scorpion before, and he had killed one before. Now he knew that this thing was originally called a black rock scorpion.

After the first black rock scorpion appeared, dozens of almost identical black rock scorpions soon drilled out of the rock wall.

The black rock scorpions that appeared hissed and rushed towards the group.

Matthew was about to throw out a few talismans to resist, but was pulled by a big hand.

Then, Matthew felt the scene in front of him moving backwards.

"Stand in the middle, don't move." Zhu Que's voice rang in Matthew's ears.

When he reacted, he saw Zhu Que holding a flaming red sword and attacking the black rock scorpions that rushed over.

Not only was Matthew pulled to the middle, but even Cui'er appeared here at the same time as him.

Zhu Que's flaming red sword would release a ball of flames every time he attacked.

All the black rock scorpions that were touched by the flames were burned to ashes within a few breaths.

Such a powerful attack made these monster insects dare not approach for the time being.

However, Zhu Que and his team did not intend to strangle these black rock scorpions. The team moved inside while fighting.

"Be careful, there are more black rock scorpions here!" The green-robed monk on the other side shouted loudly after killing a black rock scorpion that suddenly appeared with his magic weapon.

Without command, the team split into two waves to resist the black rock scorpions that appeared in front and behind.

Matthew and Cui'er were the weakest, and they were surrounded in the middle and could only watch the elders fighting.

While looking around, Matthew accidentally saw Cui'er's face showing excitement.

Before he could figure out why Cui'er showed this expression, he saw Cui'er took out a stack of talismans and began to activate them one by one.

These were ordinary fireball talismans and water arrow talismans. After releasing them, these spells rushed towards the black rock scorpion that appeared behind.

Since Cui'er chose to take action, Matthew couldn't do nothing.

Like Cui'er, Matthew also took out some talismans and started to join the battle.

"There are more and more black rock scorpions behind us!" The old man surnamed He shouted loudly after using several talismans to transform several earth walls to resist the black rock scorpions.

"Then rush forward and fight your way out!" said the old man Chi Yuan with a laugh.

This old man drove two sledgehammers, and one or two black rock scorpions were crushed every time he attacked.

"Old He, you block the way ahead, and the others will attack the black rock scorpions in front with all their strength!" Zhu Que said and rushed forward.

Hearing this, the old man surnamed He curled his lips in dissatisfaction, stretched out his hand to slap the storage bag, and a talisman made of animal skin appeared in his hand.

After quickly activating the talisman, the animal skin talisman emitted a ray of spiritual light, and then the talisman floated up and ignited.

After the talisman burned out, a stone pillar almost as thick as the passage appeared.

This stone pillar looked very hard, and after it appeared, it completely blocked the way they came.

This is not over yet. After the stone pillar appeared, a man in a blue robe who rarely spoke in the crowd also took action.

He took out a small blue flag from his storage bag, waved his hand without even looking at it, and the small flag flew to the side of the stone pillar.

As the man made a gesture with his hands, the small blue flag emitted a soft blue light.

What surprised Matthew was that wherever the blue light illuminated, a blue halo appeared.

"With this blue light flag, we are not afraid of those monster insects coming out of the rock wall." After the blue-robed monk finished his action, the old man surnamed He laughed.

After ensuring that there was no worry about the back road, everyone's attention was focused on the front.

In front of them was a wide space. After entering, Matthew and Cui'er hid aside.

The previous passage was too narrow and not easy to play.

Now that there is no restraint, Cui'er keeps taking out talismans to participate in the attack.

Although the power of these talismans was limited and could not cause substantial damage to the black rock scorpions, it was enough to contain some of them.

In order to strangle these black rock scorpions as soon as possible, Matthew kept attacking.

The black rock scorpions were only first-level demon insects, and most of these people were foundation-building cultivators.

Although there were many black rock scorpions, they were still not enough in front of so many foundation-building cultivators.

It was almost a one-sided massacre. In just one or two hours, the number of black rock scorpions had been reduced by nearly 80%.

After the remaining black rock scorpions knew that the group of people in front of them were not what they could deal with, they also went back to the hole in the rock wall and disappeared.

"Rest here for an hour." Zhu Que said softly after dealing with a black rock scorpion that had not had time to enter the hole in the rock wall.

"The people who entered here to dig the secret passage never mentioned that there would be so many black rock scorpions here. It seems that this place is no longer safe." The old man surnamed He sat down, took out a gourd and drank the liquid inside.

"The current situation is completely different from before. We need to be extra careful next time." Chi Yuan said.

Although he said it very seriously, the excitement on his face had not yet dissipated.

While everyone was talking, the blue-robed man stood up and patted a spirit beast bag on his waist.

After the spiritual light flashed, a small mouse that was only the size of a palm and had light golden hair appeared in front of everyone.

"Golden spirit mouse, you are still raising it." After seeing the golden little mouse appear, Chi Yuan laughed.

"I have developed feelings for it, so I will keep raising it." The blue-robed monk replied lightly.

After speaking, he made a slight chirping sound.

Then, the golden spirit mouse squeaked a few times and ran towards a fork in the road.

Looking at the disappearing golden spirit rat, Matthew's eyes showed a thoughtful look.

He knew the golden spirit rat. This kind of monster beast was very weak. Even an adult golden spirit rat might not be able to defeat a cultivator at the third or fourth level of Qi Refining.

But this monster beast had another ability, that is, their senses were sharp, and they could see through many things that human consciousness could not find.

The blue-robed monk's move was obviously to see what dangers existed in the next fork in the road, so that he could prepare for the response in advance.
