The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron
Chapter 24 An encounter with a battle of wits
Although I felt a little disappointed, I then thought, since we are already here, let’s go up and have a look.
It is rare to see fights between monks.
With an attitude of observing, Matthew continued to walk upward.
Knowing that there were monks up there, he became cautious.
He took out the old man's indestructible cloth from his storage bag and put it on his body.
Matthew had already figured out the use of this piece of cloth.
As long as some mana is injected into the cloth and covered with the cloth, his figure will be hidden.
On weekdays, when using a small cauldron to purify elixirs, Matthew would take out a cloth and cover it on top of the small cauldron to prevent others from knowing his secret.
Matthew, who was hiding inside the cloth, moved closer to the front.
After he came to a rock, he made sure that the position was just right to see the top of the mountain clearly, and squatted down.
This piece of cloth is a rare treasure. It can not only hide the figure, but also the breath.
Matthew sometimes wondered where the old man got such a good thing.
After blending in with the color of the rock, Matthew stared at the two people fighting not far in front with wide eyes.
With his back facing him was a man wearing a blue robe, using a blue dagger to attack the person opposite.
But Matthew knew the man opposite the man in blue robe.
It was the black-robed monk who exchanged the poison jar with him for four middle-grade Qi Gathering Pills.
He didn't know why the two were fighting here, but judging from the situation, they must have been fighting for a while.
The black-robed monk was driving a black long knife, constantly chopping the blue dagger.
The two of them were walking around while fighting, but the man in blue robe always had his back turned to him, making it impossible for Matthew to see his face clearly.
The two magic weapons were entangled with each other in the air, and both of them had their hands idle as spells continued to be released.
Through observation, Matthew found that most of the spells released by the man in blue were related to water attributes, and he should practice this aspect of skills.
The black-robed monk was a little weird, and he used methods that Matthew had never seen before.
As if the fight was getting a little impatient, the black-robed monk bit his finger and flicked a few drops of blood toward the long black knife in the air.
After absorbing the blood, the long knife emitted a trace of black light. It flew away the entangled blue dagger and headed straight for the man in blue robe.
However, the man in blue robe did not panic. After quickly making a seal with his hands, a wide water curtain appeared in front of him, which just blocked the long knife attack.
The man in blue robe standing behind the water curtain kept moving his hands, took out a talisman from the storage bag and threw it upward.
When he made a magic formula in his hand, the talisman turned into a fire snake about two feet long.
"Fire Snake Talisman!" After seeing the fire snake appear, Matthew, who was hiding where he was, had a look of surprise on his face.
This fire snake talisman is not an ordinary talisman, but a genuine mid-level talisman that only foundation-building monks can refine.
Matthew also knows something about the talismans and roughly knows the prices of some talismans.
In Wangxian City, a Fire Snake Talisman would cost at least thirty spiritual stones.
After the fire snake appeared, the water curtain moved forward to accommodate, trapping the long knife inside.
The fire snake went straight towards the black-robed monk.
Seeing the fire snake attacking, the black-robed monk took a few steps back, his body filled with black energy, and a stream of blood spurted out from his mouth.
Before the essence and blood even hit the ground, it was already wrapped in black energy.
During the turning, the black energy transformed into a black snake that was about the same size as a fire snake.
Two long snakes condensed by mana entangled and bit each other, and for a while it was difficult to tell the winner.
Just when Matthew thought it was a tug-of-war, he saw the blue dagger that had been chopped off appeared silently behind the black-robed monk.
The blue dagger was very fast, and in just the blink of an eye, it had already stabbed the black-robed monk in the body.
Just hearing a wailing cry, the black-robed monk fell down.
The moment he fell to the ground, the long black snake also disappeared.
After the blue dagger flew back to the hand of the man in blue robe with blood, he removed the water curtain behind it.
But the moment the water curtain disappeared, an accident happened.
The long knife exuding black energy slashed at him at an extremely fast speed after escaping from the trap.
The man in blue robe obviously did not expect such a thing to happen, and it was already too late to avoid it.
As a last resort, he could only hold the blue dagger in front of him.
But the long sword had obviously been planned for a long time, and it slashed hard with a slight sound of breaking through the air.
This knife not only cut off the blue dagger directly, but also cut off one of the blue-robed man's arms.
The man in blue robe who lost his arm let out a scream and quickly slapped the storage bag with his other hand.
An earthy yellow talisman appeared in his hand.
When the long sword was about to strike again, the man in blue robe activated the talisman in his hand.
A flash of earth-yellow light appeared, resisting the attack of the long knife.
This earthy yellow light only appeared for a moment and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
After the light disappeared, Matthew, who had been staring at the battle, opened his mouth.
The man in blue robe disappeared unexpectedly.
He didn't believe in evil, and his eyes moved around, but he didn't find any trace of the man in blue robe.
While Matthew was looking for the man in blue robe, the monk in black robe lying on the ground slowly stood up.
I saw him, covering the injured area, and looking for the man in blue robe.
Walking to the place where the blue-robed man was standing, the black-robed monk began to use his long knife to chop the ground.
After a chop, a pit was cut into the hard ground.
But still no trace of the man in blue robe was found.
Matthew didn't know what the talisman with the earthy yellow light was. Since there was nothing to do here, he had to leave.
When Matthew was about to leave, the black-robed monk left before him.
This made Matthew, who was about to leave, feel moved and continued to squat in place.
After a while, under Matthew's gaze, the black-robed monk returned here again.
After some inspection, the man left disappointed.
However, Matthew still didn't move.
After waiting for a while, Matthew saw the black-robed monk returning here again.
"This person's mind is really delicate. He has been hiding nearby and observing. Fortunately, his heart didn't move just now, otherwise he would definitely be discovered." After seeing the black-robed monk leaving again, Matthew muttered happily.
This time, the black-robed monk did not appear again for a long time after he left.
Matthew stopped hiding and walked slowly toward the path he came from while holding the piece of cloth.
He had secretly observed that the cultivation of those two people was above his.
Especially the black-robed monk. When Matthew met him at the exchange meeting earlier, he remembered that he was at the fifth level of Qi Refining, just like him.
But the method the other party just used could never be at the fifth level of Qi Refining.
This is also easy to understand. The other party must have a way to hide his cultivation.
Through today's observation, Matthew also understood the importance of hiding one's cultivation.
I also began to think about it in my mind. I would like to find out if there is any secret method in this area after I return to the fairy city.
