Ye Tian Yun chose to join the sect - because there was one reason other than killing Xiao Ming that he had never focused his mind on - mainly not to distract himself.
Even now, Ye Tian Yun wanted to wait for some more time before focusing on that - he wanted to put his mind on Xiao Ming alone.
However, if he didn't get the chance to come back, things would definitely be hard for him.
But he had no other choice - the reasons were still unexplainable.
Shaking his head, Ye Tian Yun removed the unnecessary thoughts from his mind and focused on the stats in front of him.
He had more than enough Kill Points to get to the next level. However, looking at the stats, Ye Tian Yun thought not going after the next breakthrough.
At least not yet.
He wanted to wait for some time and accumulate more Kill Points.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Tian Yun sat down, back in the Spirit Water.
With the water level on par with his neck, Ye Tian Yun moved his hand and stuck his fingers with each other in such a way that he was able to hold some Spirit Water in his hand.
'System, I hope there's not much trouble this time.'
[Depends on your genius(ness).]
Ye Tian Yun moved his hand closer to his mouth, ignoring System's taunt, and without hesitation, he gulped the Spirit Water.
Just like before, a refreshing feeling spread throughout his body as he felt the Spirit Water flow down to his stomach through his food pipe.
As this feeling disappeared after the Spirit Water reached his stomach, a burst of Qi flow began throughout his body.
This time, as System had predicted, the intensity didn't affect Ye Tian Yun much.
There wasn't much change in the rate of Qi flow either.
Ye Tian Yun also pushed the Qi flow from his side and waited for the notification spam to begin.
And just as he had expected -
[Digested Spirit Water. 1800 Kill Points!]
[Digested Spirit Water. 1760 Kill Points!]
[Digested Spirit Water. 1910 Kill Points!]
[Digested Spirit Water. 1831 Kill Points!]
.
.
.
The notifications continued to pile in front of him; however, the Kill Points he was gaining were less than his previous try.
'Looks like the effect wears off a lot in the subsequent tries. But it's still amazing. Anything higher than 1-2 Kill Points is amazing.'
With these thoughts, Ye Tian Yun didn't worry about the decreased Kill Points much and continued to focus on cultivating.
However, after a few minutes, the lightheadedness suddenly returned, and Ye Tian Yun had to try his best to keep his eyes open.
*slap*
Ye Tian Yun slapped himself to remain awake.
*splash*
Then he used his hands and splashed some Spirit Water on his face.
The lightheadedness was now still there. However, it wasn't affecting him so much as to make him faint. But it was still enough to distract him.
This feeling didn't last long, and Ye Tian Yun was able to pass through.
Along with this feeling, the notification spam also stopped.
Nodding his head, Ye Tian Yun understood what had happened.
'The Spirit Water is finished.'
And indeed, his guess turned out to be true with the next prompt from the System.
[Host has successfully consumed the Spirit Water within his body. Please drink more.]
Ye Tian Yun nodded his head and, without any delays, began to gulp the Spirit Water.
However, this time, he decided to drink more at once, rather than just a few droplets.
Soon, Ye Tian Yun had gulped a mouthful of Spirit Water.
Unfortunately for him, the results remained the same, and there was no change in the Qi flow.
Ye Tian Yun understood how Spirit Water was working in his body.
'So it doesn't matter how much Spirit Water I drink; what matters is how fast my body can convert it into Qi and increase my Qi flow.'
'Well, this is enough for me to know; now I won't have to wait for much.'
With that thought, Ye Tian Yun drank another mouthful of Spirit Water.
Just as he had put the Spirit Water in his mouth, the notification spam began once again.
[Digested Spirit Water. 1500 Kill Points!]
[Digested Spirit Water. 1610 Kill Points!]
[Digested Spirit Water. 1490 Kill Points!]
.
.
.
Nodding his head, Ye TianYun gulped the Spirit Water.
After a few minutes, he repeated the process.
Ye Tian Yun continued to drink the Spirit Water after some intervals.
'System, tell me when I reach the point where Spirit Water won't have any effect on me.'
After what seemed to have been hours or days, the System finally gave the warning prompt.
[Host, anymore Spirit Water won't have any effect and wouldn't be converted into Qi. Instead, it will be treated like water, and if you continue, you will soon have a very high urge to piss. The decision to continue is up to you now.]
Ye Tian Yun immediately stopped.
There was no place to take a piss here. Neither did he carry any container in his spatial ring, and he was going to piss in the Spirit Water in no way.
Sitting cross-legged, Ye Tian Yun continued to push himself in increasing the Qi flow.
The notification continued to span in front of him. However, few changes could be easily noticed.
[Digested Spirit Water. 1480 Kill Points!]
[Digested Spirit Water. 1500 Kill Points!]
[Digested Spirit Water. 1467 Kill Points!]
.
.
[Digested Spirit Water. 1301 Kill Points!]
[Digested Spirit Water. 1296 Kill Points!]
.
.
[Digested Spirit Water. 800 Kill Points!]
.
The kill points gained were slowly decreasing.
And finally came the points where the Kill Points gained became stable and reached the minimum points.
[Digested Spirit Water. 1 Kill Points!]
Exactly the same notification spammed for a long time, and everything ended with the one last prompt.
[Spirit Water has been completely digested.]
Ye Tian Yun's lips curved as he thought, 'Let's start the cultivation speedrun!'
