It had just been 2 minutes since he started cultivating, but Alex realized that he couldn't fall asleep at all.
"Huh? What's happening?" he thought. Nothing was happening inside him as well. No Qi movement, nothing.
"Damn, did the formation screw up with my body?" Alex wondered. "That can't be. The heat shouldn't have affected my meridians," Alex thought.
"What's going on then?" he wondered and started breathing once more. A few more minutes passed and he realized that it was just not happening.
"Something's wrong," Alex thought. He put Pearl aside and got up. "Is something wrong with me?"
He used his spiritual sense to check everything inside of him. However, he could see that everything was perfectly fine.
"Huh? Is it because I'm hurt?" he wondered. He decided not to wait at all, and brought out a pill from his storage. It was a True rank healing pill that he had made himself and he immediately ate it.
