The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Three days later, Matthew came to Zhu Que's residence as promised.

Seeing Zhu Que again, he became as calm as before.

"Starting today, my master will begin to assign a series of tasks for you. First of all, it is the use of magical weapons." Zhu Que said nothing else and went straight to the point.

At Zhu Que's request, Matthew took out the middle-grade magic weapon he received when he entered the academy and began to demonstrate the object-repelling technique in front of him.

That middle-grade magical weapon was called the Cold Moon Sword. Although it was a middle-grade magical weapon, its quality was not even as good as his flaming sword.

As for the art of dispelling objects, Matthew had practiced it countless times when he was in Wangxian City, and he had often used this art when refining alchemy over the years.

Seeing that Matthew was able to control the magic weapon with great ease, Zhu Que also showed a satisfied look.

"It's not enough to use the magic weapon freely. When fighting with others, the situation changes at any time. You have to learn how to adapt to changes. Next, I will use the magic weapon to fight with you to exercise your actual combat ability." After stopping Matthew's spell casting , Zhu Que said slowly.

"Master, you are a foundation-building monk. How can I fight back in front of you?" Matthew said with a wry smile.

"Don't worry, I will suppress my cultivation to the same level as you." Zhu Que waved his hand and said.

After saying that, he also took out an identical Leng Yue Sword and began to attack each other with Matthew.

Facing the Leng Yue Sword coming from the front, Matthew moved his feet and used the Wind Control Technique combined with the Light Body Technique to nimbly avoid the attack.

When he landed on one foot, he immediately released his magical weapon.

He knew that his attack would never be able to hurt Zhu Que at all, so he didn't hold back at all.

Seeing that Matthew reacted so quickly and launched an attack on himself, Zhu Que nodded slightly, waved his arm, and a red light shield appeared, wrapping his body.

"Protective shield!" After seeing the red light shield appear, Matthew frowned slightly.

This protective shield is a defensive spell that can only be practiced at the eighth level of Qi Refining, and he has only just learned it.

A sword hit the protective shield, and Matthew's Cold Moon Sword was bounced back. Looking at the red light shield, it only shook slightly.

Seeing the Leng Yue Sword flying back, Matthew immediately made a seal with his hands.

But before he could complete the technique, Zhu Que's Leng Yue Sword was already approaching him quickly.

As a last resort, Matthew could only give up casting spells and use his body skills to avoid the attack of Leng Yue Sword.

After twisting to avoid the blow, Matthew waved a wave of air from his hand and pushed Zhu Que's Leng Yue Sword forward.

At the same time, Matthew clasped his hands again.

After his Leng Yue Sword made a buzzing sound, a sword shadow flashed out, but its target was Zhu Que's Leng Yue Sword.

The sword shadow came first, struck Leng Yue's sword, and knocked it heavily to the ground.

After the successful attack, Matthew just wanted to use Leng Yue Sword to cast his sword shadow again.

But at this moment, he discovered that a warm hand appeared on his neck at some point.

"I lost..." Matthew said with a wry smile after his neck was pinched gently.

"I have a lot of offensive thoughts, but I forget about my own defense. It's because I have too little experience." Zhu Que chuckled after releasing his palm.

The moment he finished speaking, his face moved slightly, and his figure disappeared from the spot like a ghost.

The moment Zhu Que disappeared, Matthew's cold moon sword stabbed him where he originally stood.

"What a boy! How dare you launch a sneak attack?" Zhu Que, who appeared behind Matthew, kicked Matthew on the butt and shouted.

"Hehe, you never tire of deceit." Matthew got up from the ground and rubbed his butt and laughed.

Although he sneak-attacked Zhu Que, he didn't see the slightest anger on his face, but instead there was a trace of relief.

"When fighting with others, everything may happen if you don't completely kill the opponent. There is nothing wrong with your move. However, you can't hurt the lives of your fellow disciples during the competition." Zhu Que chuckled and said.

"I remember." Matthew nodded heavily.

Next, the two continued to practice.

Matthew became extremely excited to have such a qualified sparring partner.

I finally have the opportunity to try out all the ideas that pop up in my mind every day.

In order to allow Matthew to enhance his own strength, Zhu Que was indeed serious about it and pulled Matthew to practice every day.

Later, he secretly upgraded his cultivation to the tenth level of Qi Refining, or even the eleventh or second level to fight against Matthew.

Matthew's progress is also very obvious. From the beginning, he only knew how to attack, and later he became more and more sophisticated.

From the beginning, he was suppressed and beaten by Zhu Que every day, but later he started to look for opportunities to fight back.

I even almost won a few times.

Zhu Que is also very satisfied with Matthew's progress.

On this day, Matthew came to Zhu Que's residence as usual.

"Boy, we won't compete today. I will take you to a place." After Zhu Que came out of the stone house, Zhu Que said.

"it is good."

Matthew rarely asked about Zhu Que's arrangements. He just did what he said, and today was no exception.

After standing on Zhu Que's small boat, the two flew towards a place in the south.

After flying for a while, the small boat magic weapon landed on a small mountain peak.

"Hey old ghost!" Zhu Que, who had just gotten off the boat, looked at a mud house in front of him and suddenly shouted.

The sound was so sudden that even Matthew who was following it was startled.

"Who is so arrogant here!" After Zhu Que finished shouting, a woman's voice came from the earthen house.

Immediately afterwards, the door of the earthen house was opened, and a girl who looked less than twenty years old and had some baby fat on her face rushed out and looked at Zhu Que and Matthew angrily.

"My master is resting inside. Who called He Laogui just now, come forward!" The girl put one hand on her hips and pointed the other hand at Matthew and asked.

Judging from her aggressive look, it seemed that Zhu Que's previous greeting to the old ghost had angered this woman.

"Little girl, how can you be so cruel? I'm here to find your master, why don't you go and report it quickly." Being pointed at by a little girl, Zhu Que raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly.

"You have to apologize to my master first." The girl also snorted back.

"What kind of disciple did He Laogui teach? He doesn't understand this etiquette." Seeing the girl's arrogance, Zhu Que shook his head helplessly.

After saying that, he took Matthew directly towards the Tsuchiya without looking at the girl again.

"You...you old man, you are still so arrogant despite your age." Seeing that she was being ignored, the girl also stamped her feet angrily.

Although she behaved a little arrogantly, she did not dare to take action against Zhu Que and could only watch the two of them enter the earthen house.

In desperation, the girl stamped her feet, followed into the earthen house, and closed the door heavily.
