The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2141 Conjecture, Ice Spider

Matthew stared at the mysterious and ancient paintings before him, his heart filled with doubts and curiosity.

Matthew couldn't tell for a moment whether these paintings were left behind by the old owner of Naro or they had originally existed here.

Judging from what we have seen so far, this passage has obviously gone through a long period of vicissitudes.

However, Matthew could not know for sure whether it was originally formed naturally under the land, or whether it was later excavated by the old master of Naro with his own strength.

After walking slowly past one mural after another, Matthew finally stopped, turned around and asked Na Luo softly, "Na Luo, how long has it been since your old master passed away?"

Hearing this, Na Luo tilted his cute little head slightly, and after thinking hard for a moment, he answered: "Well... As for the exact time, I really can't remember it, probably several hundred years."

After receiving such a vague answer from Naro, a strange look flashed across Matthew's eyes.

At this moment, after a long period of repeated thinking and in-depth analysis, he could finally judge with certainty that the passage before him could never have been dug by the mysterious old master Luo himself.

He only took a cursory look at the clearly visible traces of time on the surrounding walls, and he could easily infer that this passage had existed for at least thousands of years.

Matthew was 100% certain about this. He came to this conclusion decisively without even the slightest hesitation.

Since this passage was not built by old Master Na Luo, and the golden key has always been safely in his hands.

This means that even the powerful old master Na Luo may have never set foot in this unknown area.

Thinking of this, Matthew couldn't help but feel more anticipation deep in his heart.

He couldn't suppress his strong curiosity and couldn't wait to find out what secrets this place was hiding.

You know, the two strangely shaped stone pillars outside are strange enough.

One of them actually possessed magical power, which gave Yueru a precious opportunity to enter the God Transformation Stage.

The other one was even more incredible. It flew straight into the passage like a flash of lightning.

These appearances alone filled Matthew with endless imagination about the scene inside the passage.

"Master, have you thought of something?" Naro's round ears moved slightly, keenly capturing the subtle changes in Matthew's expression. Curiosity flashed in his smart eyes, and he asked.

Nara's voice echoed in the silent passage, carrying a hint of ethereal resonance.

Matthew stopped and unconsciously put one hand to his chin, stroking it gently with his fingers. His brows were slightly furrowed, and a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes.

After a moment, he slowly said, "I guess this passage, no, I should say that everything in this underground was not built by your old master. Look at the stone wall of this passage. The patterns on it are ancient and mysterious. They cannot be carved by human power in a short time. Moreover, these patterns contain a strange energy fluctuation. Perhaps he discovered the specialness of this place and was attracted by the mysterious power hidden in it, so he built the cave here."

Matthew's voice was low and steady, and it was particularly clear in this quiet space. Every word seemed like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.

After listening to Matthew's explanation, Naro just blinked slightly and didn't react much.

Perhaps, for it, the past is too far away. It just stands there quietly, wagging its tail gently, as if everything around it has nothing to do with it.

"This passage should be safe, why don't we speed up."

Na Luo said impatiently, with excitement flashing in his eyes, as if he couldn't wait to explore the unknown ahead.

Its petite body trembled slightly, revealing its inner anxiety.

And just after it finished speaking, Matthew was seen taking out several tree man puppets calmly from the storage bag.

These tree man puppets are lifelike, their bodies are carved from ancient wood, engraved with mysterious runes, and exude a faint woody fragrance.

Matthew's eyes were focused, his hands quickly formed several complicated hand seals, and he muttered something.

As his spell sounded, green light flashed in the eyes of the tree man puppets, and they began to run quickly forward with heavy but firm steps.

Matthew looked at the tree man puppet's receding back, a hint of caution in his eyes.

Although the passage seemed calm and peaceful without any obvious signs of danger, he knew very well that in this mysterious underground world, unknown dangers might be lurking in the dark corners at any time, waiting for the moment when they let down their guard.

He didn't want to get himself into a desperate situation because of a momentary carelessness.

After all, in his past adventures, he had seen too many tragedies caused by carelessness.

Therefore, in order to ensure his own safety, he habitually let the tree man puppet lead the way and act as their vanguard.

As the treeman puppet gradually disappeared around the corner of the passage, Matthew and Naro slowly followed.

Their footsteps echoed in the corridor. As they walked, Matthew suddenly realized that the temperature around him seemed to be gradually dropping. A chill slowly rose from the soles of his feet and penetrated his bones.

He stopped cautiously and looked around, but found nothing unusual. However, his intuition told him that danger was approaching quietly.

"Na Luo, be careful, something is wrong." Matthew whispered, with a hint of solemnity in his voice.

Naro also felt the chill. His ears were pressed tightly against his head, his body slightly arched, and he took a defensive posture. With a vigilant light flashing in his eyes, he responded in a low voice: "I know, Master."

At this moment, the alarm of the tree man puppet suddenly came from the front.

The sharp sound echoed in the passage, making people feel creepy.

Matthew and Naro looked at each other and immediately rushed towards the source of the sound.

When they arrived, they saw a huge ice spider appear before their eyes.

This ice spider is covered with a thick layer of ice, as transparent as crystal, and sparkling with a cold light.

Its eyes were like two red gems, revealing a ferocious aura.

Huge fangs protruded from its mouth, covered with crystal ice, like two sharp daggers.
