The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2070 Lifting the Forbidden Spell

Matthew is well aware of the complexity of human nature. Although the first choice seems to have brought certain benefits to the Mangcang tribe, it will actually plant the seeds of resentment in their hearts.

They may agree on the surface, but their inner resistance will be difficult to eliminate, and this unstable cooperative relationship may break down at any time.

This is the same as how old man Zi Ding treated the Mangcang tribe back then.

Matthew and the old man Ziding both knew that this path was wrong and would only result in betrayal from the Mangcang tribe.

Matthew had already prepared a response plan. Even if they did not agree to the second option, he had other tricks waiting for them.

He repeatedly played out various possible situations in his mind and developed different strategies for different reactions.

He was confident that no matter what choice the Mangcang tribe made, he could keep the situation firmly under his control.

"Okay, then I won't say anything else. Next, let's start with Elder Jin. I will remove the forbidden spells for you one by one." Matthew nodded with satisfaction and said.

Afterwards, he brought Elder Jin into the building.

The footsteps of Matthew and Elder Jin echoed in the empty corridor and no one spoke.

Although he has lived for many years, Elder Jin still couldn't hide his excitement at this moment.

The years have left deep marks on his face, but his eyes still sparkle with expectations for the future.

He thought back to his long life, having experienced countless ups and downs, and now he finally saw a glimmer of hope for relief.

Especially after witnessing the terrifying power of the forbidden spell, Elder Jin was full of anticipation for lifting the forbidden spell.

The power of the forbidden spell was like a sword hanging over his head, making him feel threatened at all times.

He didn't want such a terrifying thing to exist in his body. It was an uncontrollable force that could devour him at any time.

Elder Jin followed Matthew closely, feeling both nervous and excited.

He didn't know what method Matthew had to lift the forbidden spell, but at this moment he was willing to trust Matthew completely.

After all, when the old man Zi Ding handed the method of controlling the forbidden spell to Matthew, he was watching right next to him, so this matter could definitely not be false.

Matthew stopped when he entered a spacious room.

Turning around and looking at Elder Jin, Matthew said seriously: "Elder Jin, the process of removing the forbidden spell may be a little painful, but you must hold on."

Elder Jin nodded, took a deep breath and said, "No problem, young master, just do it, I can handle it."

Matthew heard this and said nothing more.

After the two sat down, Matthew slowly raised his hands and began to recite a strange spell.

As his spell sounded, the air in the room seemed to solidify, and a powerful energy wave began to spread in the air.

Elder Jin felt that his body was enveloped by an invisible force, and an indescribable feeling of oppression made it almost impossible for him to breathe.

He clenched his teeth and tried to stay awake.

He knew that this was a critical period to lift the forbidden spell and he could not relax at all.

Matthew's spells became more and more rapid, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He concentrated all his attention on controlling the flow of energy, not daring to be distracted in the slightest.

Finally, after nearly an hour of chanting, Matthew stopped chanting the spell.

At this moment, Matthew slowly stretched out his fingers, and his slender fingertips gently touched Elder Jin's brow.

In an instant, a strange energy surged out from Matthew's fingertips and seeped into Elder Jin's body like a trickle.

Elder Jin felt as if he was in warm spring water, and all the meridians in his body were enveloped by this gentle power.

Then, he clearly felt that the forbidden spell that had troubled him for a long time was dissipating bit by bit.

The feeling of relief made Elder Jin involuntarily breathe a sigh of relief.

When the forbidden spell completely disappeared, Elder Jin slowly opened his eyes and his gaze fell directly on Matthew in front of him.

There was an irrepressible excitement flashing in his eyes, and his lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't utter a single word.

However, this joy did not last long.

Soon, Elder Jin's expression changed slightly, because he discovered that although the forbidden spell in his body had disappeared without a trace, at the same time, another new restriction was quietly generated.

This sudden change instantly shattered the glimmer of hope that had just risen in Elder Jin's heart.

He had forgotten what Matthew had said before, that new restrictions would be left in their bodies.

Originally, Elder Jin still had a little bit of hope deep down in his heart regarding the restriction that Matthew had mentioned.

He secretly speculated that judging from the strength of cultivation that Matthew had currently demonstrated, the restrictions he imposed might not be too powerful.

Maybe with my many years of practice experience and understanding of the forbidden ways, I still have a chance to break it.

Therefore, he did not take the restrictions Matthew mentioned too seriously.

But now, when he truly felt the terrifying power contained in this new restriction, Elder Jin suddenly realized it.

It turned out that I had greatly underestimated Matthew's ability after all.

This restriction, which was carefully set up by Matthew himself, contains such powerful force that it is simply jaw-dropping.

It is actually not inferior to the shocking forbidden spell cast by the old man Zi Ding back then!

What shocked and surprised Elder Jin even more was that the restriction left by Matthew was so complicated and complex.

The various mysterious runes and exquisite formations included in it are closely intertwined with each other, like criss-crossing tree roots, entangled and formed a huge and intricate maze like a psychedelic world.

Elder Jin looked at it carefully with full concentration for a long time, but no matter how hard he racked his brains, he still couldn't accurately identify what type of restriction he had.

Faced with such an extremely mysterious restriction, Elder Jin couldn't help but feel a strong sense of powerlessness deep in his heart.

However, he did not fall into long-term depression and frustration.

Because not long ago, he had resolutely agreed to the second option proposed by Matthew and accepted to be left behind.

Now that such a decision has been made, it is inevitable to encounter such difficult situations.

Thinking of this, the haze in Elder Jin's heart suddenly disappeared.

He took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly, trying to calm his agitated emotions.

As long as they can remain loyal and have no ulterior motives, Matthew will surely not deliberately make things difficult for them.

So, when Elder Jin stood up, he immediately bowed respectfully to Ma Xiuxing and said, "Thank you, young master! From now on, I will follow you till death!"

At this moment, after all these twists and turns, Elder Jin was completely convinced and admired Matthew.

At least from the current perspective, Elder Jin will definitely not have even the slightest bit of disloyalty.

As for how the future will develop and change, I am afraid we can only leave it to the ruthless years to slowly verify.
