The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2437 Revenge

During this long and agonizing waiting process, every breath seemed to be infinitely stretched and seemed extremely long.

Everything around seemed to be frozen in this tense atmosphere. It was so quiet that it made people feel depressed. Only the constantly swirling blood-red mist and the breath of impending battle filled the air.

Matthew stood there quietly. On the surface, his expression remained calm and composed, as if everything was under his control.

However, only he himself knew that deep in his heart, his heartbeat had already begun to accelerate uncontrollably, like the surging sea.

Every heartbeat was like the beating of a war drum, reminding him of the severe test he was about to face.

But he knew that at this critical moment, he must not let his inner tension show out no matter what. He must remain calm and wait for the best time to fight.

The same was true for the Man-God King. Its body, which was originally as straight as a pine tree, was now slightly tense, showing a tense state ready to strike.

His breathing became heavier, and with every inhale and exhale, he could feel the impending battle aura surging through his body.

This breath seemed to be a call from the depths of his soul, causing all the muscles in his body to gradually relax, and then become even more tense, as if adjusting to the best condition for the battle that was about to break out.

The hair on his body began to stand up slightly in the windless space.

Each hair stood tall like a small battle flag, an obvious and unique sign that he was entering combat mode.

This subtle change did not escape Matthew's keen eyes.

At this moment, without warning, a violent vibration came from the blood-colored mist. The vibration was very subtle at first, as if an invisible big hand was gently pushing the mist, but it soon became more and more intense.

Every vibration was like an alarm bell ringing in the space, causing the entire cave to tremble slightly.

Matthew and the Goblin King became nervous instantly, their nerves were like bowstrings stretched to the limit.

The air around me seemed to become sticky, and every breath became difficult.

Matthew's eyes were fixed on the constantly vibrating fog, not missing any subtle changes.

The eyes of the Man-God King flashed with vigilance, and his aura became more solemn.

As the vibration became stronger and stronger, a powerful aura slowly emanated from the mist.

This breath was like a dark force surging from the abyss, bringing with it a heart-pounding sense of oppression that made people feel fear and awe involuntarily.

Both Matthew and the Goblin King understood that a fierce battle was about to break out.

Suddenly, the blood-colored mist seemed to be torn apart by a pair of invisible giant hands. With a "hissing" sound like tearing cloth, a black shadow slowly walked out of it.

The black shadow was more than two meters tall and had a sturdy build, like a moving mountain.

Only when it was fully revealed did Matthew see its appearance clearly.

Matthew's eyes were fixed on the monster, not missing any details.

This humanoid monster was exceptionally tall, as if it were a giant carved out of solid stone, exuding an unparalleled sense of power.

Its limbs are extremely strong, like thick tree trunks, and its muscles are bulging, showing a powerful strength.

Every time the limbs moved slightly, one could feel the powerful force surging in the muscles, as if it could explode with devastating power at any time.

Its face was pitch black, as if it had been cursed by darkness, and it exuded a gloomy and terrifying aura.

At the corners of its mouth, two sharp teeth as long as fingers were exposed. Those teeth were like sharp daggers, flashing with cold light and able to easily tear the throat of its prey.

The monster also has ten fingers on its hands, and each finger has sharp and black nails.

These nails are like sharp blades, making people afraid.

Matthew could even feel that the chill emanating from those nails seemed to penetrate his soul directly.

The monster's eyes were blood red and filled with cruelty.

Those blood-red eyes seemed like burning flames, carrying endless cruelty and anger, as if they wanted to destroy everything around them.

After the monster appeared, its eyes were fixed on the Man-God King. Its gaze was like the scythe of the god of death, carrying a desperate sense of oppression.

The Man-God King also stared at the monster closely, and they seemed to be able to hear each other's rapid breathing.

"What the hell is this!"

Matthew swallowed subconsciously, and then thought to himself.

As far as Matthew could remember, he had never seen such a strange creature.

The monster in front of him looked somewhat similar to the Man-God King, with the same tall body and sturdy limbs, but the aura it exuded was completely different.

"This thing is called Ganchou, and it is an extremely rare creature. Only when one's cultivation reaches the Spiritualization Stage or above, and dies in a place with extremely dense Yin and evil spirits, and before death there is still resentment in the body that cannot be let go, will there be a slight chance of giving birth to such a creature."

At this moment, the voice of the old man Ziding sounded in Matthew's mind.

Matthew had never heard of Ganchou, but even the old man Ziding gave it such a high evaluation, which showed that the origin of Ganchou must be very terrifying.

Matthew couldn't help but secretly gasp in his heart, and shook his head with a bitter smile, a trace of helplessness flashed across his face.

Although Hou Shen was unable to leave his body and thus could not fully detect the monster's strength, relying on his many years of experience in the immortal cultivation world and the rich combat experience he had had, he was able to tell that the enemy Gan Chou was extremely powerful.

The powerful feeling of oppression and the terrifying aura were telling him that this enemy should not be underestimated.

As for how strong they are, we will only know after a real fight.

Matthew took a deep breath and silently calculated his own strength and the abilities that the other party might display.

"The Man-Xiao King and Ganchou are natural enemies. Once they meet, it will be a fight to the death."

The old man in purple tripod continued to transmit the message.

"Whoever wins will devour the other. Once the devouring is complete, the winner will be able to master an extremely powerful and unique magical power. However, as of now, your Man-Xiao King is far less powerful than this dry enemy. It seems that you have to help."

The old man Zi Ding continued to speak in a slightly teasing tone.

Without waiting for Matthew to answer, the old man Ziding said again: "Although the Man-Xiao King and Ganchou have a natural hatred, the probability of the two encountering each other is too low. This is the first time I have seen such a situation, and I am really looking forward to it."

Matthew felt a mixture of emotions. On the one hand, he was indeed worried about the current situation, and he was concerned about the safety of the Goblin King.

On the other hand, he was also full of curiosity and anticipation about the upcoming battle with natural enemies.

He slowly turned his head and looked at the Man-God King, his eyes full of concern and worry.

The Man-God King still maintained a vigilant posture, his body as straight as a pine tree, standing there steadily.

Its eyes were like deep pools, staring quietly at the enemy in front of it. There was no trace of retreat in its eyes, as if burning with a never-extinguishing flame, revealing firmness and determination.

Gan Chou's gaze was still fixed on the Man-God King, and the light in his blood-red eyes suddenly became more intense.

The light seemed like a dark red flame gushing out from an endless abyss, hot and wild, with a chilling sense of aggressiveness and oppression.

The intensification of the light instantly made the atmosphere in the entire cave more tense and depressing.

The entire cave seemed to be shrouded in an invisible pressure. The air became heavy, and every breath of air was like a tangible rope that bound everyone inside.

Matthew stood not far away and could clearly feel the tense atmosphere that was about to explode.

He could hear his own heartbeat. In this silent environment, the heartbeat seemed particularly clear, as if it was the beating of a war drum, playing the prelude to the battle that was about to break out.

Suddenly, time seemed to freeze at this moment, and then passed quickly in an instant.

The Man-God King and Gan Chou moved without any warning, so fast that only a blurry shadow could be seen.

In an instant, the two sides collided like two ferocious beasts.

There were no fancy or unnecessary moves, no hesitation or delay, only the most primitive and direct attacks on each other.

Their attacks were simple and direct, with every move and every style containing endless power and speed.

In just a few breaths, the two had already fought for more than a dozen rounds.

When they first started fighting, both sides refused to give in to each other, showing their ferocity and sharpness.

The Man-God King took the lead in launching an attack. He flashed and approached his enemy quickly like a ghost.

The huge claw drew a sharp arc in the air, carrying a powerful tearing force, and slapped towards Gan Chou like lightning.

With a loud "bang", the Man-God King knocked Gan Chou to the ground with one claw.

Gan Qiu was blown to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

However, the moment it landed, it used the rebound force to twist its body flexibly and bounced up like a spring.

Just as the Man-Goblin King was approaching, Gan Chou kicked him hard in the abdomen.

This kick clearly carried tremendous force and was incredibly fast.

The Man-God King was unable to dodge and was hit hard by the kick.

With a whoosh sound, the Man-God King was kicked directly into the blood-colored mist like a kite with a broken string and disappeared in an instant.

Gan Qiu climbed up from the ground nimbly, his movements quick and smooth.

It adjusted its posture slightly, ready to continue chasing the Man-God King.

But at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Gan Chou like lightning.

This figure is naturally Matthew.

Matthew had been closely following the battle between the Man-Goblin King and Gan Chou. Just now, after seeing Gan Chou's attack that was full of ferocity and absolute power, he had realized that the Man-Goblin King was really no match for Gan Chou.

Although Ganchou had no interest in him, Matthew knew very well that the Man-Gollum King meant a lot to him.

Moreover, he would not allow himself to just watch the Man-God King being devoured.

After Matthew appeared, without any hesitation, he raised his right hand, clenched his fist, and tensed his muscles.

The fist seemed to contain endless power, and the air began to form small vortices around the fist.

Immediately afterwards, Matthew punched Ganchou directly.

The punch was incredibly fast and powerful, and it made a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

Gan Chou's attention was all on the Man-God King. He obviously did not expect that Matthew would suddenly appear in front of him at this time and attack him.

When Matthew's fist was about to reach Gan Chou, Gan Chou reacted quickly enough and a fierce look immediately appeared on his face.

Facing Matthew's punch, he did not dodge at all, but directly swung one arm and smashed it towards Matthew's head with overwhelming force.

This blow contained the absolute power of revenge and was incredibly fast. Once it hit, Matthew's head would explode instantly.
