The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2511: Luring the Demon into the Hole

“We still don’t know whether the Blood God has any connection with the God-Slaughtering Temple. Instead of looking for the information ourselves, it’s better to force the master of the God-Slaughtering Temple out.” Matthew’s eyes flickered, and he looked around at everyone before continuing.

When everyone heard this, they all silently waited for Matthew's next arrangement, with concentration and thought in their eyes.

"You four, continue to refine the light balls. We don't need to be in such a hurry this time."

Matthew turned his gaze towards the four beast kings, his tone calm and firm.

After hearing this, the four beast kings immediately nodded and understood their mission.

Then, Matthew turned to look at Bai Chen and Shi Potian. "You two are responsible for attracting the demon army. The more the better, and lead them all to the headquarters of the God-Slaying Temple. Our abilities are limited and we may not be able to break the formation below, but there are so many demons, so maybe we can find a way. Since things are already so chaotic that we can't control them at all, let's just make things even more chaotic."

Matthew looked at the two of them, his words filled with determination.

Bai Chen looked resolute and immediately responded: "No problem, we know how to do this."

Shi Potian also nodded heavily to show that he understood.

Matthew nodded and his eyes fell on Xingyan again.

"Go to Beidou City and see if you can cooperate with Qinglian Jushi to find another deputy hall master. If the situation allows, capture that person alive. Remember not to alert the enemy and not to reveal your identity. We are in the dark and they are in the light. No one knows of our existence. This is the most favorable time for us."

After Matthew gave some instructions, everyone started to get busy.

The flying boat that was left behind was quietly suspended in the air, and everyone flew away silently.

Matthew flew alone towards a mountain over a thousand feet high in the distance. His figure quickly shuttled through the mountains and forests and soon disappeared into the mountain.

Matthew did not kill Master Jin Guang, but imprisoned him in the Qinglong Bracelet.

Here, Matthew was busy arranging various affairs, while the Tushen Temple was thrown into chaos due to the sudden disappearance of Jin Guang Zhenren and two huge and inexplicable attacks in succession outside the headquarters.

The God-Slaying Temple hurriedly sent out a large number of people to investigate the situation. They were determined to find out who was against them.

However, those who carried out the attacks are all busy with their own tasks at this moment.

Xing Yan disguised herself as a Jindan cultivator and carefully and quietly sneaked into Beidou City.

She observed her surroundings vigilantly, dodged patrol officers along the way, and approached the place agreed with Master Qinglian with difficulty.

Finally, she successfully met up with Qinglian Jushi who was also lurking inside to gather information, and began to discuss Matthew's orders.

When Xing Yan captured Jin Guang Zhenren alive and shared the general information she had obtained from him with Qing Lian Jushi, Qing Lian Jushi could not help but be greatly shocked.

At the same time, I was also impressed by how quick and courageous Matthew and the others were.

In this situation full of danger and unknowns, Matthew and others dared to act so boldly, which is really admirable and somewhat unimaginable.

Afterwards, Mr. Qinglian shared his gains during this period with Xingyan without reservation.

The two sat together and discussed seriously, and finally decided to sneak into the base below to check the situation.

On the other hand, Bai Chen and Shi Potian's progress was not so smooth.

It took them a long time to find some traces of the demon army.

However, at this time, all the demon army gathered at Tongtian Peak. Even if they deliberately released some aura to try to attract the demons, they could only attract a small number of demons.

"What should we do? This is not what we expected." Shi Potian stood on a hilltop, brows furrowed, and said to Bai Chen beside him.

Bai Chen looked depressed and sighed, "The only way is to get closer to the demon base. This is not a solution."

They originally thought that the demon army would attack human cities and sects everywhere as they did before, so that they would have the opportunity to attract more demons.

But after trying for a period of time, it was discovered that the demons had changed their strategy.

They actually began to shrink their sphere of influence and even voluntarily gave up some of the places they occupied, which made it difficult to implement their previous plans.

"That's the only way. We have to lure them out forcibly. Or just drive a group of monsters over there?" Shi Potian touched his big bald head, trying to find a new solution.

"There must be a problem within the demon clan. Let's take it one step at a time." Bai Chen shook his head helplessly and sighed.

After saying that, the two of them immediately flew towards the nearest demon stronghold.

Time flies, and six months have passed quietly.

During these six months, everything seemed calm.

The demon army seldom attacked human cities or sects, and the blood-red ribbons in the sky no longer wreaked havoc, as if the previous conflicts had never happened, and the world of immortal cultivation temporarily fell into peace.

However, beneath the calm appearance, there are undercurrents secretly.

All forces are secretly planning and making intensive preparations for their respective plans, and a bigger storm is quietly brewing.

The originally peaceful mine was now surrounded by a large number of monsters. The densely packed monsters looked like a black tide at first glance.

Following a low roar, a large number of monsters rushed into the pit like surging waves.

For a moment, demonic shadows flickered in the pit and roars came one after another.

Moreover, there are endless monsters rushing towards this side from all directions. There are so many of them that it is impossible to see the end of them. It seems that they are going to completely swallow up this land.

On the flying boat in the distance, Shi Potian and Bai Chen were watching all this with excitement on their faces.

They had just gone through a thrilling operation and were now excitedly describing in detail the process of attracting the demon to the people on the flying boat.

The two of them were the last to come back, as the others had already completed their tasks.

It turns out that their original method of trying to attract the monsters didn't work.

There are too many monsters and they are extremely vigilant. Ordinary means of luring them are simply incapable of gathering them together.

When the two were in trouble, they decided to take an extremely risky approach.

They knew very well that there were masters in the God Transformation Stage among the monsters, but they deliberately exposed themselves and loudly pretended to discuss how to enter the pit in a place where the monsters could easily find them.

During the discussion, they mentioned intentionally or unintentionally that they wanted to join the Temple of Slaughtering Gods in order to attract the attention of the divine monsters.

These divine monsters were extremely cunning and intelligent. After noticing the unusual behavior of Shi Potian and Bai Chen, they followed them secretly.

Shi Potian and Bai Chen had actually already noticed the follower behind them, but they pretended not to know and continued on their way, pretending to be unaware of the danger behind them.

After they completed a series of arrangements, they pretended to wander around and used secret techniques to inform Matthew.

After Matthew got the news, he disguised himself as Jin Guang Zhenren and showed up to meet them.

Since then, large numbers of demons have been heading this way.

Although Shi Potian and Bai Chen's methods seemed a bit crude, after Matthew disguised himself as Jin Guang Zhenren and appeared, his words and actions were very similar to those of Jin Guang Zhenren, which completely dispelled the doubts of the demonic creature that was following them.

The demons and the God-Slaying Temple have been fighting each other for many years, and each has a certain understanding of the other's important figures.

The demons were well aware of the habits, magical powers and styles of the important figures in the Temple of Slaughtering Gods. When they saw Matthew in disguise as Jin Guang Zhenren, they had no doubts and thought that an important event related to the Temple of Slaughtering Gods was about to happen here.

So, after the divine demon went back to deliver the message, a large number of demons began to attack this place.

Xing Yan came back half a month earlier than Shi Potian and Bai Chen.

Her mission in going to Beidou City this time was to cooperate with Qinglian Jushi to capture another deputy master of Tushen Temple.

If the original plan had gone well, she should have been able to capture the deputy hall master alive.

However, things did not go as she wished. The deputy hall master had left before she arrived at Beidou City.

Those subordinates naturally had no way of knowing where the deputy hall master had gone, which made Xing Yan's capture operation unsuccessful.

However, Xingyan did not return empty-handed.

She still found out the general situation of the stronghold below with Master Qinglian.

They explored Beidou City and its surroundings in many ways, and gradually pieced together the overall picture of the base below by observing the movements of monsters, talking to some people who knew the situation secretly, and searching some suspicious locations.

This stronghold is huge in scale, complex in layout, and has many defensive facilities and prohibitions. It is indeed one of the important strongholds of the Temple of Slaughtering Gods.

Xing Yan also found a giant teleportation array under Beidou City.

This teleportation array is hidden in an abandoned underground palace, surrounded by dust and cobwebs, and it is obvious that it has not been used for a long time.

Xing Yan and Qing Lian conducted a preliminary investigation of the teleportation array and found that the array had complex patterns and was a long-distance teleportation array.

However, they searched the souls of several people who might be related to the teleportation array, but found nothing.

These people are only responsible for the daily maintenance of the teleportation array and know nothing about the specific teleportation location of the teleportation array or the controller behind it.

"Let's not take action now. All the light balls have been buried underground. We just need to wait for the people from the Temple of Slaughtering God to come out and fight the demons. Then we can take action." Matthew said softly while standing on the flying boat and looking at the situation below.

At this moment, the four alien beast kings were not on the flying boat.

Shi Potian and Bai Chen looked around and asked curiously, "Where are the four beast kings?"

Matthew smiled and didn't answer, but Xingyan chuckled and pointed to the sky.

When the two looked up, their eyes narrowed slightly.

They saw three black spots in the sky, but they couldn't see clearly what they were.

"The four of them are helping up there. You'll be in for a good show when the action starts." Xing Yan said with a rare smile.
