The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 1774: The Patriarch’s Request

Matthew thought for a moment and said, "I'm just passing through here. I have to go somewhere else. You can take care of the ghost tribe's affairs. I will leave after I understand some things."

Matthew's words surprised the patriarch.

He looked at Matthew deeply and said, "Nine Patriarchs, a few days ago, the Third Patriarch sent back news. The East Ring Xiuxian World has also been invaded by monsters. They have moved their positions and plan to go to other places. No further news has been sent back yet, so now almost no place is safe. The number of monsters is increasing, and every day we receive news that a city has been breached or completely destroyed."

The patriarch's words surprised Matthew again.

Even the Donghuan Immortal Cultivation World has been invaded by monsters.

The speed at which this monster invades is a little too fast.

"Maybe I've been busy with my own things all these years and completely neglected other things." Matthew muttered to himself.

He has indeed been making various preparations for the heavenly punishment and the impact on the divine transformation over the years.

Especially after the heavenly punishment was resolved, he spent a few years collecting fragments and then ran to the Baixian Mountains.

It is remote and has not been invaded by monsters for the time being.

However, judging by the speed of the monsters, there may not be many peaceful days left in the Baixian Mountains.

"Have you found out where the monster came from?" Matthew asked in a deep voice.

"Not yet, but according to our previous investigation, the monsters should have come from the Prison God Sea. After all, based on previous data, the monsters appeared after the ancient restrictions in the Prison God Sea were destroyed."

"It's just that we don't know the situation in the Prison God Sea at all. Let alone the Prison God Sea, we can't even go near the sea. It's already a gathering place for monsters."

The patriarch shook his head and said that the appearance of the monster was too sudden for everyone.

Now even if we want to investigate the source of the monsters, it is a very difficult task.

"To be honest, I plan to go to Tongtian Peak. There is something I must do there. No matter how dangerous it is, I will go." Matthew said after exhaling lightly.

He understood what the patriarch meant, which was to let him stay in Yunyan City to help resist the invasion of monsters.

But Matthew also knew that the more dangerous the situation was, the more he needed to improve his cultivation as quickly as possible.

Only when he reaches the Spirit Transformation Stage will he be able to protect himself.

As for the monsters, he can take action a few times within his ability.

But it is impossible to expect him to guard a city and continuously fight against monsters.

Unless the city is extremely important to Matthew, giving him a reason to garrison there.

"You are talking about Tongtian Peak in Tianyue Kingdom, right?" the patriarch said softly.

"Exactly." Matthew nodded.

After Matthew admitted it, the patriarch did not say anything this time. Instead, he took out a small black jade tablet and used his magic power to send it to Matthew.

Matthew curiously reached out and held the jade token. After looking at it for a few seconds, he transferred his spiritual consciousness into the jade token.

This is something that is only used by the ghost clan to transmit important information. It requires sufficiently powerful spiritual awareness and special methods to view it.

After all, Matthew is the ninth patriarch of the ghost clan, so he must have known about this a long time ago.

There wasn't much information on the jade token, but after reading it, Matthew's face looked a little ugly.

"The monsters are actually starting to climb Tongtian Peak!" Matthew said after taking a deep breath.

Xingyan and Yueru, who had been standing beside him without saying a word, showed surprise on their faces after hearing what Matthew said.

They had never thought of this.

Originally, they thought that the monsters were just attacking cities.

Unexpectedly, the monster would still want to climb Tongtian Peak.

This inevitably made them wonder whether there was something very important to the monsters on Tongtian Peak.

After all, they knew that Dengtianling Island was most likely above Tongtian Peak.

"Tianyue Country and several surrounding countries have been occupied by monsters. Many cultivators have gathered in Wangxian City to continue to resist the monsters. Things like this happen in many places, so I would like to ask the Ninth Patriarch to temporarily put aside the things at hand and help Yunyan City resist this monster invasion."

After the patriarch finished speaking, he stood up and bowed deeply to Matthew.

The people of the ghost clan have a deep sense of identity with the chosen stronghold or place.

Unless there is a major accident, they usually won't leave easily.

Therefore, it is understandable that the patriarch begged Matthew to stay and help.

Matthew could fully understand this.

"Do you want to send some people from the headquarters here?" Matthew asked softly with a flicker in his eyes.

"That's right. The situation over there is too bad. It may be difficult to even keep the headquarters. This is the result of my discussion with the second patriarch. She told me before that she must find a way to find you. Let you appear and save Yunyan City." The big patriarch said softly after standing up.

Just as he said, after knowing that the matter was not simple, the patriarch had already sent people to look for Matthew outside.

However, Matthew came and went without a trace, and even the ghost people gained nothing.

Just when the patriarch was at a loss, Matthew took the initiative to appear in Yunyan City.

This made the patriarch happy, and he also decided to keep Matthew for a while.

At least we have to survive this monster invasion.
