Chapter 2350: The Appointment at the Bloody Cave
After hearing Matthew's straightforward words, Huang Jinjia's face seemed to be gradually shrouded by a layer of haze and became solemn.
His face, which was already somewhat cold, now looked like an autumn leaf hit by frost, revealing an indescribable seriousness.
Huang Jinjia took a deep breath slowly, which seemed to carry a sense of determination, as if he was trying to calm his inner thoughts.
Then he reached out and picked up the teapot beside him, and poured himself another cup of tea with steady but slightly slow movements.
The teacup in his hand seemed to be carrying a huge weight, and every movement he made was extremely cautious.
After he drank the tea in the cup, he gently put down the cup. The slight sound made by the cup touching the table seemed particularly clear in the silent atmosphere.
Then, he slowly said, "Since you really insist on entering the Blood Demon Cave, I will tell you everything I know without reservation. However, before that, I have to make one thing clear to you. When the Blood Demon Cave is opened this time, I will also step into it."
After saying this, Huang Jinjia raised his head and looked at Matthew meaningfully.
There seemed to be many complex emotions in those eyes, including exploration, vigilance, and a hint of barely perceptible expectation.
"For that treasure? I can't say I have a strong interest in that treasure, but if I come across it by chance, I will certainly not let it go easily."
Matthew shrugged easily with a faint smile on his face.
His smile showed an insight into Huang Jinjia's thoughts, but also a kind of indifference and open-mindedness.
With Huang Jinjia's current level of cultivation, entering a dangerous place like the Blood Demon Cave is most likely for the legendary treasure.
But if he said that he had no interest in the treasure and would not participate in the fight for it, Huang Jinjia would probably not believe it even if he was beaten to death.
After all, in the world of cultivators, when they reach the stage of Spirit Transformation, there are very few things in the human world that can truly move their hearts.
Once you come across something that may improve your strength or be of great help to your own practice, you will definitely fight for it with all your strength.
It is simply a fantasy to expect Matthew to make any guarantee not to fight for the treasure or simply give up this opportunity.
Therefore, Matthew chose to speak directly and make things clear.
After hearing what Matthew said, Huang Jinjia's eyes narrowed slightly, like two thin slits.
In that tiny gap, there was a faint flickering light, like suppressed anger, or like a kind of helpless self-mockery.
He sighed in his heart, and this sigh contained too many emotions.
He knew very well that although he and Matthew were both in the Spirit Transformation Stage, there was a big gap in their strength.
He knew very well that he was no match for Matthew. The gap was not only reflected in the level of their cultivation, but also in the means and power they each possessed.
Take his maid for example. He couldn't even beat Matthew's maid. How could he dare to hope to gain the upper hand in a head-on confrontation with Matthew?
Not to mention facing Matthew himself.
However, he was unwilling to give up the fight for the treasure so easily.
He had been planning carefully for this treasure for quite some time.
During this period of time, he collected intelligence everywhere, analyzed various possible situations, and even contacted some forces that could cooperate.
However, now, facing the powerful competitor Matthew, his plan seems to be facing a huge challenge.
"Then let's each rely on our abilities."
Huang Jinjia knew that things had come to this point and he was powerless to make any changes, so he could only smile bitterly and said.
This bitter smile reflects the helplessness of being unable to change the status quo, as well as a calm acceptance of the upcoming competition.
This time, Matthew did not make any response. He just sat there quietly, like a steady mountain.
He looked at the golden armor calmly, as if waiting for what would happen next.
"Blood Demon Cave is the largest secret place in Southern Xinjiang. I believe you already know this. I will not elaborate on the information that can be easily found in the world. However, before I tell you about those important things, I want to make a deal with you."
As Huang Jinjia spoke, his eyes moved slightly a few times. There was a hint of expectation in his eyes, as if they were hiding some secret.
"Oh? What deal?" Matthew frowned slightly, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
He knew very well that it would not be an easy task to hear the details about the Blood Evil Cave from the mouth of Golden Armor.
After all, this information is an extremely valuable resource for these monks.
Due to the fact that both of them were members of the Guiyi Society, he could not use tough measures to force Huang Jinjia to tell the truth. He could only try his best to go along with what he said and see if he could find a breakthrough.
"It's not a particularly troublesome thing. As you know, there is an extremely dense bloody miasma in the Bloody Evil Cave. This bloody miasma is not an ordinary miasma. Even people with cultivation like you and me will be greatly affected if they stay in it for a long time. Once this bloody miasma invades the sea of consciousness, the consequences will be disastrous. They will become monsters that only know how to kill, lose their reason, and act only on instinct. To be honest, there has been a case of a cultivator who was invaded by the bloody miasma in his sea of consciousness and finally went on a killing spree in southern Xinjiang. That incident caused a lot of uproar at the time, and I personally participated in some of the follow-up matters. So, I would like to ask you to refine a batch of high-quality evil-removing pills. And in return, I will tell you all my experiences and everything I know about entering the Bloody Evil Cave without reservation."
As Huang Jin Jia spoke, he stared closely at Matthew's expression, trying to find some response from his face.
Matthew's expression changed slightly when he heard this.
He also didn't expect that the bloody miasma in the Bloody Cave would actually affect the Divine Transformation cultivators.
He also knew that he had oversimplified the matter.
"Let me see the recipe of the Qusha Pill first. I have never come across this kind of pill." Matthew said after hesitating for a moment.
"No problem. The recipe for the Qusha Pill is unique to Southern Xinjiang, but it is not a rare thing." Huang Jinjia readily agreed to Matthew's request.
After saying this, he immediately took out a yellowed pill recipe from his storage bag and handed it to Matthew.
After Matthew took the prescription and glanced at it quickly, he felt somewhat confident.
