The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

"This technique is very powerful, but the flying speed is not very fast." After the explosion ended, the masked man said softly.

"Yes, you need to use wind spells to promote this technique." Matthew nodded.

This secret technique was just a random attempt by him, and he didn't spend too much time improving it.

"There is a demon-subduing team on this island, and everyone has a demon-subduing tube in their hand. Their task is to use the demon-subduing tube to consume the monsters when the beast tide comes. Li Daoyou has such a powerful secret technique, I think Let you become the captain of the demon-suppressing team!"

Matthew was surprised by the masked man's words.

He originally guessed that the masked man was just letting him use this secret technique to deal with the monsters when the beasts came.

But he never thought that he would be asked to lead a small team.

"Li is not good at management, I'm afraid he won't be able to do this well." Matthew shook his head.

"After experiencing this wave of beasts, I can make the decision to let you leave!" the masked man said with a focused look.

"How many people are there in the demon-suppressing team?" Matthew asked.

"There used to be more than a hundred people, but now there are only more than twenty left. All of them are foundation-building monks, and there are no pill-forming monks." The masked man said calmly.

"Take me to have a look first."

Matthew did not immediately agree to the other party's request, but he had an idea in his mind.

Then, the masked man took Matthew to a stone house.

Five people were sitting outside the stone house, wiping the magic tubes in their hands.

Seeing the masked man and Matthew arriving, the five people immediately stood up and saluted respectfully: "Greetings to the two adults."

When the sound appeared, the door of the stone house was opened, and more than a dozen people quickly ran out from inside.

"This is Fellow Daoist Li, he's here to check on your situation." The masked man pointed at Matthew beside him and introduced.

"How long does it take to release a demon-subduing tube?" Matthew asked softly without being polite.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes turned to a middle-aged man in his forties.

It seems that this person has the highest prestige here.

"It takes about half a stick of incense." The middle-aged man said after thinking for a moment.

Matthew frowned slightly when he heard this. It only took a dozen breaths for him to release a ball of light before.

However, after thinking about it, he was relieved.

The highest level of cultivation here is only in the late stage of foundation building, and the magic power is definitely far inferior to his own.

"After half a stick of incense, the effect of this demon subduing tube is much less effective. Why not find more people?" Matthew turned to look at the masked man and asked.

"Manpower is limited, and others have other things to do." The masked man said with a wry smile.

"I can agree to your request, but the number of people must be doubled." Matthew said after turning his eyes.

"Double...that's fine."

The masked man thought for a moment and then agreed.

Afterwards, the masked man took Matthew to the place where the foundation-building monks lived to select people.

"Where are you going?"

Along the way, I happened to meet Qingyunzi.

"Fellow Daoist Li has agreed to take charge of the demon-suppressing team. I will take him to select some people." The masked man responded casually.

"How many people are needed?" Qingyunzi asked.

"At least twenty people need to be added." The masked man said. He was a little surprised as to why Qingyunzi asked these questions.

"Twenty people, I'm afraid it won't work." Qingyunzi shook his head after hearing this.

"Why not just twenty people?" This time it was Matthew's turn to be confused.

"It's not that Qing is deliberately making things difficult, but Shangfeng has just issued a new order. As the first defense point for this wave of beasts, this island has to rearrange many things and there are really not enough manpower." Qingyunzi sighed. said.

"This..."

The masked man looked at Matthew with some embarrassment.

Apparently, he didn't know about this new order either.

When the two were attacking, Matthew smiled slightly and said: "Since we are the first point of defense, it shouldn't be too much to borrow some people from other outer islands."

As soon as these words came out, the masked man and Qingyunzi were startled at first, and then they clapped their hands at the same time and said: "We are so confused that we forgot that we can still operate like this."

"Fellow Daoist Li, you come with us to other islands, and I will just go and borrow some people." After being awakened by Matthew's words, Qingyunzi said happily.

The original sadness on his face disappeared and was replaced by excitement.

After Qingyunzi took out several transmission notes and said a few words each, these transmission notes turned into streaks of fire and flew towards the surroundings.

"Without further ado, let's set off now." Qingyunzi said to the two of them after releasing the transmission talisman.

Naturally, Matthew and the masked man had no objections.

There is a teleportation array on the island. Naturally, Qingyunzi and the masked man use the teleportation array without reporting it to anyone.

When the white light came on, the three people left the No. [-] outer island.

After the three people left, Ji Tian and more than a dozen people sat together in a stone room.

At this time, a foundation-building monk came in and quickly reported what happened to Matthew, the masked man, and Qingyunzi.

When these people heard that Matthew followed the two of them and left the third outer island through the teleportation array, everyone's faces showed shock.

"Fellow Daoist Ji, this fellow Daoist Li has only come to this island not long ago. How could he be so close to these two people?" After sending away the foundation-building monk, one person said with a sad look on his face.

"I don't know. This person is a bit lonely and I don't have much contact with him. Maybe it's because he knows that special secret technique." Ji Tian shook his head and said.

"In this case, this person cannot be won over." Another person said.

"Not only can't you win over him, you have to be extra careful with this person!"

Discussions about Matthew continued in this stone room.
