The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2283 The Last Piece

As Matthew continued to use his magic power to attack the seventh lotus petal, time seemed to become extremely long at this moment.

His magical power was like a surging river, continuously flowing towards the mysterious golden lotus.

Every impact of magic power seemed to be competing with some kind of power between heaven and earth. The lotus petals trembled slightly, but there was no sign of fully unfolding.

Fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on Matthew's forehead and his breathing became rapid.

The magic power in the body is like the water in a well being drained out, gradually running out.

However, he did not stop, still gritting his teeth and persisting.

He knew that this was the critical moment for a breakthrough, and if he relaxed, all his efforts would be wasted.

Finally, at the moment when the magic power was about to be completely exhausted, the seventh lotus petal slowly unfolded.

The lotus petal was like a golden wing, gently stretching out and emitting a dazzling light.

As the lotus petals unfolded, the remaining magic power in Matthew's body was instantly sucked away, as if the golden lotus was a bottomless pit, greedily devouring all energy.

Matthew was not surprised.

After all, this had already happened once when the sixth lotus petal unfolded.

He reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead and exhaled deeply, as if to expel all the fatigue in his body.

Then, he reached out and patted the storage bag on his waist, and several bottles of pills appeared in his hands.

He had prepared these pills long ago and they were specifically used to restore his magic power.

Matthew uncorked the bottle skillfully and poured the pill into his mouth.

The pill melted in his mouth, turning into a warm current that quickly flowed to his limbs and bones.

Matthew immediately sat down cross-legged and began to refine the elixir in his body.

However, what he didn't expect was that the magic power he had just recovered was instantly absorbed by the golden lotus before it stayed in his body for a moment.

Matthew was slightly stunned, his brows furrowed.

He had worried about this situation before, and now it has happened.

"It seems that the appetite of this golden lotus is even bigger than I thought." Matthew whispered to himself, with a solemn look in his eyes.

If he could not satisfy the needs of the golden lotus first, he would not be able to continue to strive for the Spirit Transformation Realm.

After a moment's hesitation, Matthew made up his mind. He reached out and patted his storage bag again, and this time he took out not a few bottles of pills, but a whole box.

The box is filled with various rare elixirs and pills, each of which contains enormous spiritual power.

These were the foundation he had accumulated over the years, and now in order to break through to the God Transformation stage, he had to use them all.

Matthew swallowed the pills one after another without any hesitation.

The elixir entered his body and transformed into tremendous magic power, rushing through his meridians like a flood.

However, before these magical powers could stay in his body for a moment, they were quickly absorbed by the golden lotus.

Matthew's face gradually turned pale, but he still did not stop and continued to take the pills.

Time passed minute by minute, and Matthew's body seemed to have become a transit station. The magic power in the elixir had just entered his body when it was absorbed by the golden lotus.

His meridians felt a sharp pain due to the constant influx and loss of magic power, but he gritted his teeth and persisted without retreating at all.

Finally, after taking the last pill, Matthew felt that the absorption speed of the golden lotus was gradually slowing down.

The lotus was like a gluttonous beast. After devouring for a long time, it finally stopped its greedy demands with satisfaction.

The lotus petals trembled slightly, emitting a soft golden light, as if expressing some kind of recognition to Matthew.

Matthew felt relieved, and his tense nerves also relaxed.

The time has come, and what comes next is the real key.

He immediately sat down cross-legged, formed seals with his hands, and practiced his skills, guiding the remaining magic power in his body to impact the Divine Transformation Realm.

This time, the magic power was no longer absorbed by the golden lotus, but all gathered in his dantian, gradually condensing into a powerful force.

This power flowed through his meridians like a surging river, and each circulation made his aura stronger.

Matthew closed his eyes and concentrated, his mind completely immersed in the circulation of the magic power in his body.

He could clearly feel that the magic power in his dantian was gradually condensing in a mysterious way, as if it was about to turn into a dazzling golden elixir.

However, at this critical moment, he suddenly realized that these magical powers alone were not enough to break through the eighth lotus petal.

The difficulty of the eighth lotus petal was far greater than the previous ones. It was like a natural chasm that stood in the way of his cultivation.

After a short rest, Matthew took out the top-quality candle hole fruit from the storage bag.

The entire body of the candle-hole fruit is crystal clear, with a faint purple glow on the surface, and the flesh seems to contain endless spiritual power.

This is one of the few treasures he has left, and it is also one of his final trump cards to break through to the Spiritual Transformation Realm.

Matthew knew very well that it was impossible to break through the eighth lotus petal relying solely on elixirs. Only with the help of the enormous spiritual power of the top-grade candle hole fruit would there be a glimmer of hope.

He stared down at the candle-hole fruit in his hand, a gleam of determination in his eyes.

The path of cultivation is to go against the will of heaven. If you retreat at this moment, all your previous efforts will be wasted.

Matthew didn't hesitate, he opened his mouth and took a bite of the top-quality candle fruit.

The flesh melted in his mouth, the juice was sweet, and it brought a cool energy that quickly flowed into his body.

This energy moistened his dry meridians like spring rain. His originally exhausted magic power quickly recovered under the nourishment of this energy, and was even more abundant than before.

Matthew ate all the remaining top-quality candlenuts in a few bites.

The spiritual power in the fruit pulp surged into his body like a tide, instantly filling his dantian.

He felt as if his body was stretched by a powerful force, and waves of pain came from his meridians, but he knew that this was a sign of excessive spiritual energy.

He must guide these spiritual powers as quickly as possible, otherwise if they get out of control, the consequences will be disastrous.

After adjusting his sitting position, Matthew continued to attack the eighth lotus petal.

He directed all the spiritual power in his body towards the golden lotus, and the spiritual power was like a giant dragon, roaring and rushing towards the lotus.

The eighth lotus petal trembled slightly under the impact of spiritual power, but there was no sign of fully opening.

Matthew was not discouraged. He knew that the difficulty of the eighth lotus petal was far greater than the previous ones. It required not only enormous magical power, but also precise control of the magical power.

He took a deep breath and immersed his mind completely in the operation of magic power.

He divided his magic power into several strands, and each strand was like a thin needle, accurately piercing the weak point of the lotus petals.

This kind of control requires extremely high concentration, and any carelessness will cause the spiritual power to get out of control.

Sweat gradually seeped out of Matthew's forehead, but his eyes became more determined.

Time passed minute by minute, and Matthew's body became a little weak due to the long-term consumption of mana, but his will was as indestructible as steel.

Finally, under the continuous impact of magic power, a corner of the eighth lotus petal slowly unfolded.

Matthew was delighted, knowing that his efforts were not in vain.

He clenched his teeth and poured all the remaining magic power in his body into the lotus petals.

With a slight "click" sound, the eighth lotus petal finally fully unfolded.

The moment the lotus petals unfolded, a powerful energy burst out from the golden lotus and instantly swept through Matthew's whole body.

This energy washed through his meridians like a torrent, pushing his body to a whole new level.
