Chapter 2215 Seeing Through
Chapter 2215 Seeing Through
Matthew bit his lower lip tightly, his teeth trembling slightly due to the force, and the color of his lower lip gradually turned white, as if covered by frost.
As time went by, the pressure continued to rise, and a trace of bright red blood slowly seeped out, appearing particularly glaring against the pale lips.
At this moment, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, like a sharp lightning in the cold night.
He took a deep breath, his chest like a bag filled with wind, and then he continued to increase the output of his magic power without hesitation.
The magic power in the body was like a surging river, continuously gathering towards the arms, and then injected into the life and death order in the hand.
Under the nourishment of powerful magic power, the light of the Life and Death Order became more and more dazzling.
The light was like the brightest star in the night sky, not only illuminating the entire dark cave, but also making everything around it seem small and insignificant.
The strong light was like countless sharp blades, penetrating every dark corner of the cave, exposing every tiny detail that was originally hidden in the darkness.
Under the reflection of the light, the stone walls in the cave seem to be covered with a layer of dazzling clothes, shining brightly.
The textures on the stone walls, formed by years of erosion, now appear as mysterious and magnificent pictures under the outline of light.
The stalactites hanging from the ceiling of the cave, their shadows swaying on the cave walls, are like a group of nimble dancers, performing their own dance on the stage of light.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and every breath was infinitely stretched and seemed extremely long.
Matthew was completely focused, and his entire world seemed to be left with only the life and death order in his hand and the restriction that imprisoned the jade box in front of him.
His mind and body were highly concentrated, with all his strength gathered in his arm, as if all the energy in his body was compressed into this small arm and continuously injected into the Life and Death Order.
Beads of sweat the size of beans oozed out from his forehead, like dewdrops rolling on lotus leaves in the morning.
These beads of sweat slid down his resolute cheeks, and the moment they dripped onto the ground, they instantly evaporated due to the high temperature and powerful fluctuations of magic power, turning into wisps of empty water vapor and disappearing without a trace.
Finally, with Matthew's almost crazy and unremitting efforts, accompanied by a crisp cracking sound, the restriction that had imprisoned the jade box for a long time completely disintegrated like fragile glass.
The cracking sound continued to echo in the cave, like a horn of victory, announcing Matthew's success.
The sound bounced off the cave's stone walls, wave after wave, growing louder and louder.
The jade box slowly opened after the restriction disappeared.
Its movements are gentle and slow.
As the jade box was opened, a dazzling light shot out from the box. The light was like a bolt of lightning that cut through the night sky, instantly illuminating every inch of the cave.
Wherever the light reaches, everything becomes clear.
The cave, which had seemed eerie and scary in the darkness, was now filled with life and light.
This dazzling light was also reflected in Matthew's eyes, which were sparkling with excitement and anticipation.
However, at this critical moment when victory seemed within reach, something unexpected happened. The Azure Dragon bracelet on his wrist moved slightly without any warning, and this slight movement seemed particularly abrupt in this silent cave.
Immediately afterwards, a purple-black light shot out from the Qinglong bracelet like an arrow, carrying a gloomy aura and heading straight for the jade box.
Seeing this scene, Matthew was not surprised at all. Instead, a sneer slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
There was a hint of sarcasm in that sneer, as if mocking the other party's arrogance.
His eyes revealed a kind of confidence that seemed to have seen through everything, as if he had guessed that something like this would happen.
It turned out that in his previous contacts with Meng Su, Matthew had already sensed the other party's ill intentions.
Meng Su seemed to have enthusiastically guided him to this place and helped him to unlock the restriction, but Matthew deduced from some subtle clues and Meng Su's occasional strange expressions that Meng Su would definitely take action to snatch the treasure at the critical moment.
At the moment the purple-black light shot out, Matthew's reaction was as quick as lightning.
The life and death order in his hand suddenly turned around as if it was given life, and the death side turned accurately towards the direction of the jade box.
At the same time, he snorted coldly. This cold snort was like a sharp sword energy, vibrating in the air.
The moment the cold snort sounded, a scream came from the purple-black light.
The scream was shrill and painful, as if it was a desperate cry coming from the Nine Nether Hell.
Immediately afterwards, a crisp "bang" sound was heard, as if it was the sound of an object falling to the ground.
I saw a puddle of mud falling to the ground. The place where the mud fell was less than ten feet away from the jade box and almost touched the precious jade box.
After the mud fell to the ground, an old face immediately emerged on the surface. It was Meng Su.
At this moment, Meng Su's face was distorted and his eyes were full of fear and unwillingness.
He never expected that everything he had carefully planned would be so easily seen through and cracked by Matthew.
Matthew looked at Meng Su lying on the ground, without a trace of pity in his eyes.
"Meng Su, you have made all kinds of calculations, but you underestimated my wisdom. From the beginning, I have been on guard against you."
Matthew spoke coldly with a sharp gaze, which seemed to penetrate Meng Su's soul and make people feel cold.
Meng Su's body was gradually dissipating under the erosion of the powerful force of the Death Order. He struggled hard, and some unclear sounds came out of his throat, as if he was trying to explain, or as if he was roaring unwillingly.
But it was all in vain. His body turned into a wisp of green smoke, slowly dissipated, and finally disappeared in the dim cave.
However, just when everyone thought the fight was over, something unexpected happened.
Where the green smoke dissipated, a strange wave arose again, and then Meng Su's soul slowly emerged.
His soul seemed a little illusory, but still revealed a sense of greed and unwillingness.
Seeing this, Matthew curled up the corner of his mouth into a sneer, that smile was full of ridicule and disdain.
He slowly shook the life and death order in his hand, which exuded a mysterious aura, and his eyes shot straight at Meng Su's soul like a sharp sword.
"You deliberately led me here just for the things in the box. I don't think the box contains any pure divine liquid."
Matthew looked at Meng Su's soul, his tone full of unquestionable certainty, and sneered again.
Recalling his previous interactions with Meng Su, Matthew sighed inwardly.
He realized from the beginning that there was an unknown purpose behind Meng Su's enthusiasm.
Every word of Meng Su seemed casual, but Matthew keenly caught the difference in it.
In order to prevent Meng Su from noticing his suspicion, Matthew cleverly disguised himself and pretended to have complete faith in Meng Su's guidance. All the caution and curiosity he showed were intended to lower Meng Su's guard against him.
Now it seems that his plan was successful.
Meng Su didn't see through his disguise until the end, and now, facing Meng Su's soul, Matthew had an absolute upper hand.
Meng Su's soul trembled slightly under Matthew's gaze, as if he felt deep fear under the threat of the life and death order.
But even so, his greedy eyes remained unchanged. He stared at the opened jade box, as if he was still making his last struggle.
