The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2605 Demon Slayer Landing

Matthew sat cross-legged in the air, his eyes slightly closed, and his hands in a seal.

Suddenly, the mark of the boundary soul on his chest trembled slightly, and a faint sensation went along his meridians directly to his spiritual sea.

"coming."

He slowly opened his eyes, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

Through the perception of the world soul, he clearly felt that Mo Tu was flying towards Tianshan Island at an astonishing speed.

According to his estimation, the long-awaited opponent would arrive in five days at the earliest and seven days at the latest.

"Five days..."

Matthew murmured softly, his fingers unconsciously rubbing the mark of the world soul on his chest.

Although he had made the most thorough preparations during this period, he still couldn't help feeling a little nervous when facing Mo Tu.

This battle concerns the life and death of everyone on Tianshan Island and cannot afford any mistakes.

The atmosphere on the island became more solemn day by day.

Everyone on the island was extremely nervous. Five days was too short a time. Even though they had made many preparations in advance, some things were still not quite right.

One day later, everyone on the island hid themselves and disappeared completely.

Matthew stood alone on the top of the mountain in the center of the island, with his hands clasped together, and a dazzling purple light suddenly burst out from his body.

The light was extremely strong, and from a distance it looked like a purple sun hanging in the sky.

When the purple light spread, the entire Tianshan Island and the nearby sea areas were enveloped.

What’s even more magical is that as the purple light shines, all traces of the island begin to disappear.

The outlines of buildings, trees, and even the island itself gradually became blurred.

Two days later, when the purple spiritual light completely dissipated, the entire Tianshan Island seemed to have evaporated from the world.

The once prosperous island now looks like an ordinary wasteland, without any sign of life.

Matthew was suspended in mid-air, the aura on his body having disappeared.

He slowly looked around and confirmed that everything was going according to plan before nodding with satisfaction.

At this moment, Tianshan Island is like a perfect trap, quietly waiting for the arrival of prey.

On the third day, Matthew took action again.

He clasped his hands together and four rays of light of different colors burst out from his body.

These spiritual lights fell into the sea around the island and then disappeared.

In the following time, Matthew's movements became extremely strange.

Sometimes he made hand gestures, sometimes he chanted incantations, and the magic gestures in his hands were unpredictable.

But surprisingly, no matter what he did, the surrounding sea did not react at all and was as calm as a pool of dead water.

If someone who doesn't know the truth sees this scene, they might think that Matthew is doing useless work.

But only Matthew himself knew that he was setting up a fatal formation that even Mo Tu would find difficult to detect.

On the fourth day, the sky suddenly became gloomy.

Thick dark clouds gathered from all directions, covering the entire Tianshan Island.

The oppressive feeling in the air became stronger and stronger, as if a storm was about to come.

The strange thing is that these dark clouds seem to have their own consciousness. They keep rolling and surging, sometimes condensing into ferocious beast shapes, and sometimes turning into sharp swords.

Matthew was suspended in mid-air, his hands behind his back, his eyes gazing calmly into the distance.

His aura had been completely restrained, and even if Mo Tu came in person, it would be difficult to detect his presence.

"Are you here..."

Just as Matthew was thinking, a black light suddenly appeared in the distant sky.

This black light came at an extremely fast speed. In a flash, it crossed thousands of mountains and rivers and flew towards Tianshan Island.

When the black light was only a thousand miles away from the island, its speed suddenly slowed down.

Obviously, the existence in the black light has sensed the abnormality of Tianshan Island.

But even so, the black light still flew towards this side firmly. Although its speed slowed down, it showed no intention of turning.

Soon, the black light appeared only a dozen feet away from Matthew.

The black light rolled, and a tall man in a black robe with a sinister face appeared.

"Demon Slaughter!"

Matthew repeated the name silently in his mind, but remained calm on the surface.

The first words Mo Tu said after he appeared surprised him: "Who are you? Where is that old thief?"

The "thief old man" he mentioned was naturally the old man Zi Ding.

Ma Zheng was about to answer, but Mo Tu suddenly frowned, with a hint of doubt in his eyes: "Hmm... Strange... Not only do you have the aura of the thief old man, but why... why do you also have the aura of Wu Kun..."

His tone became more and more serious, his eyes suddenly opened, and his voice suddenly increased: "No! No! Why do you still have the scent of that crazy woman on you! Who are you?!"

Just before Mo Tu finished his words, a deafening roar suddenly came from the sky!

The rolling dark clouds seemed to be twisting violently like living things. Countless hideous faces vaguely emerged from the depths of the clouds, sometimes twisting into the appearance of Mo Tu, and sometimes transforming into the outline of Matthew.

What's even more strange is that there are faint sounds of dragon roars and phoenix cries coming from the clouds, as if ancient mythical beasts are fighting in the clouds.

Mo Tu's pupils suddenly shrank, and his demonic energy surged. His black robe fluttered without wind. He stared at the depths of the dark clouds, and a rare solemnity flashed in his eyes: "This... This is..."

At this moment, Matthew's heart was in turmoil.

The information obtained from the old man Zi Ding and Wu Kun in the past showed that Mo Tu was clearly aware of his existence and was even very familiar with the aura of the world soul on him.

But the Mo Tu in front of him showed a completely unfamiliar attitude, as if he was really seeing him for the first time.

"You don't know me?" Matthew frowned, his voice low and calm.

The moment he asked this question, he noticed a hint of doubt in Mo Tu's eyes.

That was definitely not a fake expression, but real confusion.

"Who do you think you are? You deserve my attention..."

Mo Tu sneered, looked around, and finally his gaze stopped on Matthew.

When his eyes met Matthew's, a flash of realization suddenly flashed in his eyes: "Oh... So that's it! The old thief didn't dare to come out himself, so he gave that half of the world soul to you..."

There was a hint of disdain and understanding in his tone.

"In that case, it would save us a lot of trouble." Mo Tu grinned and suddenly raised his right hand.

In an instant, a giant black palm that covered the sky and the sun appeared out of nowhere!

This giant palm is a hundred feet in size, and each finger is as thick as a mountain. When the five fingers are spread out, it seems that it can hold the entire Tianshan Island in the palm.

Upon seeing this, Matthew's world soul power instantly began to operate.

The giant black palm rushed towards Matthew with the power to destroy the world. When it was half a meter away from him, it was suddenly blocked by an invisible force.

"Om-"

Visible ripples appeared in space, and the giant black palm stopped abruptly in mid-air as if it had hit an invisible wall.

A trace of surprise flashed across Mo Tu's eyes, and then he sneered: "So you have already mastered the power of the world soul..."

Matthew said nothing and quickly formed seals with his hands in front of his chest.

As the spell changed, a circle of purple light slowly spread out with him as the center.

The light is not dazzling, but it gives people a feeling of being as deep as the abyss, as if one can see through the abyss of the soul.

"Interesting." Mo Tu exclaimed.
