Chapter 2154 Open, Destroy
After hearing the skinny old man's impatient words, Matthew couldn't help feeling a little surprised.
However, Matthew did not show his inner surprise and confusion on his face. He knew that at such a critical moment, he must not easily reveal his emotions, so as not to be caught by the other party and fall into an even more disadvantageous situation.
I saw him lowering his head slightly, with the hair in front of his forehead falling down, covering part of his face, but revealing his calmness and restraint at the moment.
His pair of deep eyes moved rapidly, like the twinkling cold stars in the deep night sky. The light revealed in them showed that his brain was working rapidly, thinking about how to respond.
Time passed by minute by minute in this tense atmosphere, and the short silence seemed extremely long. Matthew's heart was struggling fiercely.
On the one hand, there is the priceless Tongtian Lingbao, and on the other hand, there is the huge temptation of the top-grade Huashen Pill, which will undoubtedly be of great help to his path of cultivation.
Finally, after a difficult weighing, Matthew slowly raised his head. There was a calmness in his eyes, which was the determination he showed after making the decision.
He looked directly at the skinny old man in front of him and asked slowly, "Then, I want to know, if we use those two things, the Sunset Bow and the Sky-Splitting Arrow, is there any way to take them out again?"
His voice was steady and low, echoing in the silent space, with a hint of barely perceptible tension.
This Sunset Bow and Sky-Breaking Arrow are a complete set of magical treasures that can reach the sky!
Its value is simply immeasurable, and it is a treasure that countless practitioners dream of.
In the past, Matthew had used the Sunset Bow and the Sky-Breaking Arrow to turn the tide of battle when facing powerful enemies.
Therefore, no matter who obtains such treasures, they will cherish them extremely and keep them carefully for fear of any mishap, let alone use them so easily.
When the skinny old man heard Matthew ask this question, his impatience became even more pronounced.
His already wrinkled brows were tightly twisted together to form a deep "川" character, and a hint of displeasure was revealed in his eyes.
He replied unhappily, "Humph! Once you use them, don't expect to be able to take them out again. These two treasures will melt into thin air. Well, stop talking nonsense and make a decision quickly! My patience is limited, and I don't have much time to waste here with you!"
There was a hint of threat in his voice, like a sharp sword, piercing Matthew's heart.
After saying this, a sinister look suddenly flashed in the skinny old man's originally turbid eyes. The look in his eyes was like a cold poisonous snake, emitting a chilling aura.
It seemed that if Matthew asked one more question or hesitated for a moment, he would attack him without hesitation and kill him.
Matthew's heart tightened. He knew very well how powerful the old man in front of him was. If he really angered him, he would be in great danger.
"Okay, here's what I'm going to do."
This time, Matthew only hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.
He understood that under such circumstances, he no longer had much choice.
The Tongtian Lingbao is indeed precious, but compared with the top-grade Huashen Pill, the Huashen Pill is obviously more tempting for his current cultivation situation.
Moreover, he knew the temper of this skinny old man very well. If he continued to delay, he would probably get into even greater trouble.
Seeing Matthew agree, the skinny old man nodded with satisfaction.
A barely perceptible smile appeared on his face, and that smile revealed a hint of success.
Without any unnecessary movement, he stomped his foot lightly. With a loud "boom", the ground suddenly began to shake violently, as if a small earthquake had occurred.
Immediately afterwards, two stone slabs slowly emerged from the ground on the edge of the stone platform, raising a cloud of dust as they rose.
After seeing the two stone slabs, Matthew's face immediately showed understanding.
He looked at the two stone slabs carefully and saw that they were hard in texture, smooth in surface, and exuded an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.
There is a groove on each of the two stone slabs. The groove on the left slab is clearly the outline of a bow and arrow. The outline is lifelike, as if it was carved with the most exquisite craftsmanship.
The one on the right is the outline of an arrow, which is also delicate and exquisite, with smooth lines.
Looking at the outlines on the two stone slabs, they are almost exactly the same as the Sunset Bow and the Sky-breaking Arrow. They are obviously designed specially to hold these two magical treasures.
"Put the Sunset Bow and the Sky-Splitting Arrow in there, and the restriction will be removed. Let's get started."
Seeing that Matthew was still looking at the two stone slabs, the skinny old man urged impatiently.
There was a hint of urgency in his voice, as if he couldn't wait to see Matthew put the Sunset Bow and the Sky-breaking Arrow into the groove.
Matthew frowned slightly. Although he felt a little reluctant, he still summoned the Sunset Bow and Sky-breaking Arrow from his body.
He gently stroked the two treasures, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes, as if he was saying goodbye to an old friend.
Finally, Matthew took a deep breath and made up his mind.
He held the Sunset Bow and the Sky-breaking Arrow tightly in his hands and walked slowly towards the two stone slabs.
When he walked to the stone slab, he paused again, with a look of determination in his eyes.
Then, he carefully placed the Sunset Bow into the groove on the left and the Sky-Breaking Arrow into the groove on the right.
At the moment when the Sunset Bow and the Sky-Breaking Arrow were placed into the groove, a dazzling light emanated from the stone slab, illuminating the entire space.
In the light, Matthew vaguely saw some mysterious runes flashing. Those runes seemed to contain a powerful force that was slowly releasing some kind of restriction.
As the light gradually dissipated, Matthew felt that the space around him seemed to have some subtle changes.
The original oppressive atmosphere gradually disappeared, replaced by a fresh and comfortable feeling.
He knew that the ban had been successfully lifted.
Seeing this, the skinny old man showed a satisfied smile on his face.
He walked forward and carefully examined the Sunset Bow and Sky-Breaking Arrow on the stone slab. After confirming that they were correct, he nodded.
Then, he raised his hands and gently patted the two stone slabs.
The movement seemed weak, but when the palm fell on the stone slabs, the two stone slabs instantly turned into two piles of powder like stones that had been weathered for who knows how many years.
Even the two magical treasures embedded in the stone slab turned into powder along with the skinny old man's movements.
Although Matthew was prepared, he still felt very uncomfortable after seeing this scene.
