From a distance, this part of the wall seemed to be no different from other walls.
In addition, the stone chamber was overly spacious and slightly dimmed. Therefore, that particular part of the
wall really seemed to be no different from other parts.
However, when Matthew was knocking on these walls as he walked, he discovered that the sound made from
this part of the wall when he knocked on it was completely different from other walls.
The wall made a thumping sound when he knocked on it, which was different from the dense and dull sound
made by the other walls. This indicated that there had to be inner layers hidden inside the wall. In other words,
there certainly was a secret chamber behind this wall.
Therefore, Matthew carefully observed the wall. As expected, he found several small gaps on the wall that
proved it was indeed a secret wooden door.
After that, he continued to search carefully for a while before he indeed found a mechanism to open the door.
He then pressed the mechanism down and a stone door slowly opened on the wall with a creak.
Behind the stone door was a dark corridor made from stone.

As Matthew stood at the entrance of the stone corridor, he was surprised to hear voices coming from inside the
corridor. It sounded as if someone was talking loudly. Could it be that there are people guarding here?
With that in mind, Matthew dared not to be inadvertent. Not daring to make the slightest sound, he quietly
sneaked into the stone door.
After walking along the stone corridor for a while, he found that the path in front of him gradually became
brighter. Soon, he saw there was actually another spacious stone chamber here. Moreover, he could hear that
the voice from earlier was much clearer as he stood there in the stone chamber.
Based on his judgment, the voice cfrom the other side of the stone chamber. Although there was light in the
stone chamber, it was pretty dim. Hence, Matthew couldn't see who was talking at all.
As the person's speech was a little unclear, Matthew could only vaguely hear him shouting with anger like he
was furiously scolding something.
However, Matthew only heard this person's voice and didn't hear other people at all from the beginning to the
end. At this moment, he was confused. What the hell is going on?
A doubtful Matthew silently sneaked over.
After walking in this stone chamber for a while, the jade piece Matthew carried in his pocket suddenly gave off a
little heat.
It was a piece of jade given to Matthew by Jinny, the Charm Master, when she departed.
Since the jade was personally carried and nourished for a long tby the Charm Master herself, it had gained
her power. Hence, the jade could absorb most of the poisons, making Matthew immune to all poisons.
Now that there was activity coming from the jade, this indicated that there was poison in the stone chamber.
Once again, Matthew's facial expression changed. As expected, Macon has this place heavily guarded. He
actually mixes toxic gas in the air inside this stone chamber.
Even someone who's medically skilled likecan't detect this toxic gas. This just further explains the extreme
rarity of this toxic gas.
I'm afraid | would've been intoxicated by this gas by now if | hadn't brought this jade with me.
Although Matthew could detoxify himself, he probably wouldn't even have tto do so if he encountered any
other special circumstances.
Fortunately, he'd carried this jade with him, which allowed him to avoid this crisis.
However, because of this, he beceven more cautious too.
Matthew only discovered that there were two rows of stone caves behind the stone chamber when he walked to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe other side of the chamber.
There were iron fences installed at the entrances of these two rows of stone caves, which looked just like
ordinary dungeons.
Before Matthew could have a clear look on what was going on in these caves, the voice from earlier suddenly
stopped.
Without waiting for Matthew to return to his senses, a stroke of palm directly attacked him.
The powerful force made Matthew feel a kind of pain that resembled his skin being split open. He quickly took a
few steps back and dodged the attack.
At this moment, an old man with gray hair rushed out in the dark and attacked Matthew again.
Seeing this, Matthew hurriedly dodged to avoid his attacks. However, the old man's strength was simply too
powerful for Matthew to handle. Matthew ran a few steps before the old man caught up with him and launched
his attack again.
This time, Matthew was unable to dodge. Hence, he could only gather all his strength in order to defend himself
from the old man's attack.
The attack was so powerful that it directly sent Matthew trembling back several steps to the point that he nearly
fell to the ground.
