The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2619 Soul Search Demon Slaughter

"Are these...worlds all human realms?"

Matthew asked with a somewhat dazed look, his voice sounded particularly weak in this silent space, yet full of doubts.

"Where humans exist, they call it the human world. If there are no humans, then the name of this world is determined by what exists in it. It's just a name anyway."

The old man Zi Ding shook his head slightly, his eyes swept across the light curtain, then he slowly raised his hand and lightly tapped one of the slightly flickering light spots.

Suddenly, a dazzling purple light shot out from his fingertips, like a meteor across the night sky, and landed precisely on the light spot.

In an instant, the scene within the huge light curtain began to change dramatically.

The originally densely packed light spots gradually blurred, and were replaced by an extremely huge map appearing within the light curtain.

This map has everything, including mountains, rivers, cities and villages, and every detail is clearly visible.

Matthew also blurted out immediately: "A complete picture of the human world!"

He was very familiar with this topographic map; it was exactly the same as the overall picture of the human world in his mind.

Matthew stared at the overall picture of the human world on the light screen. The flickering lights were like the brightest stars in the night sky, densely distributed all over the map.

He stretched out his hand and pointed, his consciousness gently attached to a bright light. The next moment, the scene in front of him suddenly changed -

This is a vast wasteland with howling winds and yellow sand filling the sky. In the distance stands a ruined ancient city with mottled walls and half-open gates, as if telling the vicissitudes of time.

Matthew was slightly stunned. This was exactly the place he had visited when he first started practicing. He did not expect that the Purple Cauldron could record his footprints so accurately.

"These lights are all places you have set foot on." The old man Zi Ding's voice was gentle and deep, as if he could see through his thoughts. "Just attach your spiritual consciousness to them, and you can be teleported to that place instantly."

Matthew was shocked; the mystery of the purple tripod was far beyond his imagination.

He was about to try again, but the old man in Ziding suddenly raised his hand, and a purple light emerged from the void, turning into a stream of light and sinking into his brow.

"boom!"

In an instant, the original picture of the human world in Matthew's mind suddenly shattered, and was replaced by a more magnificent and clearer map.

This map not only covers every inch of land in the human world, but can even vaguely sense the spiritual fluctuations in certain special places.

"Is this... a complete picture of the human world?" Matthew was shocked.

The old man in purple tripod nodded with a smile: "Yes, as long as you merge the other half of the world soul, the entire map will be completely activated, and you can travel freely in the human world."

Before Matthew could speak, the old man in Ziding attacked again. With a wave of his hand, purple beams of light dropped from the top of the mysterious space, enveloping the unconscious Mo Tu like a cage.

Mo Tu was still unconscious, like a body without a soul, allowing the beam of light to wrap around his entire body.

Matthew regained his composure and looked at the demon killer in the beam of light, his heart moving slightly.

The old man Zi Ding did not explain too much, but simply said: "The other half of the world soul is sealed in Mo Tu's body. Only by extracting it can you truly control the power of the complete world soul."

As soon as he finished speaking, thirty-six rays of purple light separated from the light column, suspended in the air, and transformed into thirty-six ancient stone tablets.

The surface of the stone tablet is engraved with mysterious runes, emitting a faint purple light, as bright as stars.

"Thirty-six purple spiritual jades!" Matthew's pupils shrank slightly and he exclaimed in a low voice.

The old man in purple cauldron nodded slightly: "You tried to open the purple spirit jade the wrong way before, and later I spent a lot of time to restore it."

After saying that, he snapped his fingers and a beam of light accurately landed on one of the purple spiritual jades.

All of a sudden, the stone tablet began to hum, and a dim purple light slowly flowed, as if a sleeping beast was slowly waking up.

Then, the light spread like a plague, and the adjacent purple spirit walls lit up one by one. The purple halos intertwined into a web, and finally converged into a dark purple beam of light, rushing straight towards Matthew.

Matthew raised his hand and grabbed it. A ball of light fell into his palm, jumped a few times like a living thing, and then sank into his body.

"Om-"

A tremendous amount of spiritual power instantly surged through Matthew's body. His meridians, dantian and even his spiritual consciousness were baptized by this power, as if he had been reborn.

"With the help of thirty-six purple spirit jades, you can easily search the soul of Mo Tu." The old man Zi Ding said with a smile.

Matthew bowed deeply: "Thank you, senior!"

He turned and walked towards Mo Tu, a gleam of determination in his eyes.

Soul searching is not a simple snooping into the soul, but a forceful intrusion into the other party's consciousness. If you are not careful, it may backfire on you.

But at this moment, he had no choice.

Matthew sat cross-legged, forming seals with his hands. His spiritual consciousness was like an invisible sword, piercing fiercely into Mo Tu's sea of ​​consciousness.

"boom!"

Mo Tu's sea of ​​consciousness was like a chaotic abyss, dark and chaotic, as if even time and space were distorted here.

Countless broken fragments of memory swept in like a blizzard, and each piece carried all of Mo Tu's past experiences - bloody killings, strange deals, desperate roars, and... unclear self-awareness.

As soon as Matthew's consciousness entered, it was almost shattered by the violent force.

He clenched his teeth, and his spiritual consciousness turned into an indestructible barrier, slowly going deeper like a boat sailing through the raging waves.

"Om-"

As Matthew's spiritual awareness continued to deepen, the thirty-six purple spiritual jades in the mysterious space began to light up one by one.

The first purple spirit jade emitted a faint purple light, followed by the second, the third... In a blink of an eye, more than ten stone tablets were shining with dazzling brilliance.

Every time a purple spiritual jade wall lit up, Matthew's spiritual awareness would be strengthened twice as much, as if an endless supply of spiritual power was being injected into his sea of ​​consciousness from the void.

However, Mo Tu's memory is too vast and complicated, like an endless primeval forest, where every tree represents a memory. What Matthew has to do is to find the information he wants in this forest.

There are no shortcuts in this forest.

Matthew's consciousness was like a cautious butterfly, shuttling through the jungle of memories.

He saw the ignorance of Mo Tu in his youth, his determination to fall into the path of evil, and his soul that was gradually lost in countless killings.

However, most of these memories are disorganized, and many fragments are even blurred, as if they were deliberately erased.

"Damn it!"

Matthew cursed inwardly.

He originally thought that soul searching would be a simple matter, but now it seems that Mo Tu's sea of ​​consciousness is like an elaborately arranged maze, with every step full of traps.

What's more troublesome is that there seems to be some strange power remaining in Mo Tu's sea of ​​consciousness. Whenever Matthew's consciousness touches certain key memories, that power will fight back like a poisonous snake, forcing him to retreat.

"Could it be that Mo Tu's sea of ​​consciousness is protected by some kind of restriction?"

Matthew frowned and quickened the speed of soul searching.

The mysterious space was silent, with only the light of the purple spirit jade becoming increasingly dazzling.

Mo Tu was still unconscious, but a look of pain appeared on his face from time to time, as if he was enduring some invisible torture.

Matthew's consciousness shuttled rapidly through the sea of ​​consciousness, screening every inch of memory.

However, the deeper he went, the more powerless he felt - Mo Tu's memory was too vast, and most of it was meaningless and trivial, such as him killing an unknown monk in a certain place in a certain month and year, or a tiny insight he gained during a certain training session.

"This is not the way to go!"

Matthew was anxious.

It's not that he is impatient, but the longer it goes on, the more variables there will be.

He could feel that the longer his spiritual consciousness was in contact with Mo Tu's memories, the more it would be corroded by the demonic energy.

As a last resort, he could only grit his teeth and speed up the soul search.

"Buzz buzz buzz --"

The light of the purple spirit jade became more and more intense, and almost all of the thirty-six stone tablets were lit up. Matthew's spiritual consciousness also surged, almost reaching the limit of what he could bear.

However, even so, he still couldn't find the information he wanted.
