The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2273 The Stone Platform is Strange

"Why is this happening?"

Matthew's heart was filled with doubts and anxiety.

He thought silently, his fingers unconsciously stroking his chin, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

His mind raced through possibilities, trying to find the root of the problem.

"Is it because my body is too weak now and cannot withstand the full energy of the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill?" Matthew whispered in his heart.

Once this idea came into his mind, it would not go away.

He recalled the scene when the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill was repairing his Dantian. Although the golden light was powerful, it was never completely integrated into his body, but instead wrapped around his Dantian like a layer of outer garment.

Perhaps, this is because his body has reached its limit and can no longer withstand more energy.

Thinking of this, Matthew's mood became even heavier.

He knew that his current situation was still very dangerous. Although the Nine Transformations Golden Pill temporarily restored his magic power, this state was not stable. He had to find a solution as soon as possible, otherwise once the energy of the Nine Transformations Golden Pill was exhausted or his body could no longer bear it, the consequences would be disastrous.

Matthew's eyes flickered slightly, and several possible solutions emerged in his mind.

Just as he was thinking, the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill suddenly made a slight buzzing sound.

Matthew's spiritual consciousness was immediately attracted over, and he saw the light on the surface of the golden elixir flickering slightly, as if conveying some information to him.

He carefully felt the changes in the golden elixir and soon discovered that the energy of the golden elixir seemed to be merging into his body at an extremely slow speed.

The speed of this integration was very slow, almost imperceptible, but it gave Matthew a glimmer of hope.

He knew that if the energy of the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill could be fully integrated into his body, then his Dantian might have a chance to truly recover.

"It seems that the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill is not ineffective, it just takes time..." Matthew said to himself.

He felt a little more relaxed, but still didn't dare to be careless.

He knew that the process could be very long and full of uncertainty.

He must remain vigilant at all times to ensure that his body can withstand the energy of the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill.

Matthew sat cross-legged with his hands hanging naturally on his knees, his fingertips trembling slightly, as if he was feeling the flow of every bit of magic power in his body.

His breathing was steady and deep, and each inhalation carried a unique rhythm, as if resonating with the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

His spiritual consciousness was completely immersed in his body, carefully observing the changes of the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill.

The golden elixir floats above the dantian, emitting a soft golden light.

The light was not dazzling, but it brought a reassuring warmth, as if it could heal all the pain.

Matthew could clearly feel that the energy of the golden elixir was merging into his body at an extremely slow speed.

That feeling is like the spring drizzle, quietly moistening the dry land. Although it is slow, it is full of hope.

"In that case, I can only wait patiently." Matthew whispered to himself.

He knew that it was useless to be anxious now, and the only thing he could do was to calm himself down completely.

His mood gradually calmed down, like a bottomless lake, without any ripples.

However, when his consciousness was completely immersed in the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill in his body, he did not notice that some subtle changes were taking place on the stone platform beneath him.

In fact, as early as when he was lying on the stone platform, a part of the golden light was silently absorbed by the stone platform.

Those golden rays were like tiny spots of light, slowly flowing along his body into the stone platform, as if being pulled by some mysterious force.

Even after his abdominal wound was repaired by the golden light, a part of the golden light still flowed through his body and into the stone platform.

However, Matthew was unaware of this.

All his attention was focused on the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill, and he didn't pay any attention to other places.

His spiritual consciousness was like a bright lamp, illuminating every corner of his body, but ignoring the subtle changes in the outside world.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the air in the stone chamber seemed to freeze, so quiet that it made people feel suffocated.

Matthew's consciousness wandered within his body, carefully sensing every change of the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill.

The light on the surface of the golden elixir was still slowly converging, but the feeling of it merging into the body was becoming more and more obvious.

Matthew could feel that his flesh and blood were being nourished little by little by the energy of the golden elixir. Although the speed was slow, it was improving steadily.

However, at this extremely quiet moment, a slight shattering sound suddenly occurred in the stone chamber.

The sound was extremely faint, as if it came from a very far away place, but in this absolute silence, it was exceptionally clear.

Matthew's consciousness was shaken suddenly, as if he was pricked by an invisible needle.

His consciousness instantly left his body and returned to reality.

"What's that sound?" Matthew felt a little alert.

His eyes suddenly opened, and his gaze was as fast as lightning, quickly scanning the surroundings.

However, Matthew did not notice anything unusual.

Everything in the stone chamber seemed so peaceful, as if the sound just now was just his hallucination.

"Did I hear it wrong?" Matthew frowned slightly, secretly wondering in his heart.

His spiritual sense spread out again, carefully sensing every change in the surroundings.

However, he still didn't find anything unusual.

Just as he was about to close his eyes again and continue observing the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill in his body, the stone platform beneath him suddenly made a slight shattering sound.

This time, the sound was clearer than before, as if it was ringing right next to his ears.

Matthew's body suddenly stiffened, and his eyes quickly moved down to the stone platform where he was sitting.

The surface of the stone platform was still as smooth as a mirror, with no signs of abnormality.

However, Matthew could feel that some subtle changes seemed to be taking place inside the stone platform.

That feeling is like an undercurrent beneath the ice. Although it cannot be seen, its presence can be clearly felt.

"Something's wrong..." Matthew felt a little uneasy.

He gently stroked the surface of the stone platform with his fingers, trying to feel the changes in it.

However, as soon as his fingertips touched the stone platform, he felt a slight vibration coming from inside the platform.

"This stone platform...there's something wrong!" Matthew's face suddenly became serious.

He knew that he might have overlooked some important details.

His spiritual sense spread rapidly, carefully sensing every inch of the stone platform's structure.

At this moment, he quickly found two slight cracks on the stone platform.

At this moment, Matthew also understood that the two shattering sounds just now should have come from these two places.
