"Second layer?" looking at her older brother while he explains the waves of water rising up from the Golden Spirit Pool, Wu Xiaoyao cutely tilts her head in confusion, apparent from her expressions the fact that she lacks some fundamental knowledge about the Golden Spirit Pool."My dear little sister, haven't you read even for a bit about the Golden Spirit Pool?" Wu Xiaotian asks as he remembers that the information about this event is disseminated by the Heavenly Secret Tower a few weeks even before it opened, and even if this isn't the case, he thought that given that this event is something happening within a consistent period of time, it wasn't that improbable that each forces participating here have their own records of the things that the disciples experienced here.
However, he's still in for a shock as his younger sister proudly look at him as if she's saying something incredible as she declares, "My attention and focus are required to so much more important things than reading a pamphlet, hence why I didn't read it"
Looking at her dumbfoundedly while wondering why she's displaying such proud look on her face, Wu Xiaotian shakes his head as he concedes defeat against her antics, patiently explaining the things about the Golden Spirit Pool that makes it more interesting than just a normal spot with extremely rich and abundant ambient spirit qi.
"The Golden Spirit Pool spans from seven up to ten days, during some of these days, the pool will eventually open up the next layer, a deeper layer just right below us, apparently with an even greater concentration of spirit qi in it, and the abundance of qi there makes it so that even if we're sticking close to each other, our cultivations won't affect each other in any detrimental ways" Wu Xiaotian starts explaining, taking out a blue colored pill the size of his thumb from his spatial ring, handing some of them to his younger sister.
"The second layer just opened, there's still a third layer waiting for us, take these, I know you don't have any single one of that in you" Wu Xiaotian added before he consumes one of the blue colored pill, looking at the bubbly young lady, signaling her to consume one of them as well.
"What are these?" curiously inspecting the pill she's currently holding, Wu Xiaoyao asks before consuming it anyways, not a single thought of her older brother trying some prank on him coming into her mind. Searᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Water breathing pills, the effect lasts for an entire day before it fades" the immortal-like young man replies as he starts his descend into the now deep water of the Golden Spirit Pool, prompting the bubbly young lady to follow, her body getting submerged to the glowing water of the pool as well.
As they descend deeper into the waters, they eventually felt the increase quality in the spirit qi around them, the pressure from the water also increasing as they get lower and lower, the quality of the spirit qi as well as the water pressure hitting the peak once they reach the current rock bottom of the second layer.
{You good, my dear little sister?} Wu Xiaotian asks while looking at Wu Xiaoyao, the bubbly young lady clearly struggling to keep herself up, probably because of the weight of the water bearing down on them.
Seeing her struggle, he waves his hand and created a barrier made out of soul power, isolating his younger sister to the waters, encapsulating her in a spherical dome of soul power with only the spirit qi entering inside.
{I made it so that only the air and spirit qi enter this dome, you can cultivate here in peace} the immortal-like young man assured while looking at the bubbly young lady with a smile on his face, the young lady also smiling out of appreciation from what he did.
{Why not just do it in the first place then? Why the effort to struggle underneath all that weight and pressure from the water?} seeing his ability to ease their cultivation in this layer by a significant degree from this barrier of soul power, Wu Xiaoyao couldn't help but wonder why her older brother still go and decided to descend the second layer like he did.
{Because this is also a good chance to temper the body… the Golden Spirit Pool is a few more times denser than water… making it a mystery why we can still descend it… anyways, that is beyond the point, my point is, this is a great chance to use the pressure to cultivate the body} Wu Xiaotian explained while moving around.
In fact, given that he's constantly tempering his body every day in the Infinite Qi Dimension, the effects of the Golden Spirit Pool's pressure on his body is already abysmal, and the only reason he explains like so is because he wants to see his younger sister do something.
{Then… remove the barrier as well, I think I can handle it} he's not bound to be disappointed though as hearing her older brother's words, Wu Xiaoyao decided to risk it as well in order to improve even more in her cultivation.
Hearing her reply, Wu Xiaotian smiles in satisfaction before dissolving the barrier, starting from underneath and eventually going up until it disappears, the heavy water pressure bearing down on Wu Xiaoyao's body again, but from her older brother's explanations of how this is also a method of improving, she found a new motivation to bear this weight.
{You will get used to it later, just say if you can no longer hold it, I will conjure another barrier so you can rest} Wu Xiaotian said dotingly as he moves to pat the bubbly young lady's head, the young lady pouting albeit nodding to agree with his words.
{I can withstand it, you don't have to spoil me too much you know~?} with pouting lips and resentful gaze, Wu Xiaoyao replies while moving to get into the lotus position, starting her meditation with difficulties as the added weight from the water is constantly trying to disturb her focus.
Seeing that she already starts cultivating, Wu Xiaotian takes this chance to interact with the system, the pressure, as well as the ambient spirit qi in this place feeling extremely familiar to him.
'How does it compare with the first layer in the Infinite Qi Dimension?' the immortal-like young man asked, a semi-transparent, floating golden screen appearing in front of him, displaying the answer to his question.
[The location's comparison to the first layer of the Infinite Qi Dimension, in terms of the abundance, quality and pressure of spirit qi is about twenty percent similar, however, it does possess the effects of being mild and easy to process, boosting the performance of a person's cultivation speed.
It is highly advised that the user cultivate in the Infinite Qi Dimension while the effects of the location's spirit qi still linger]
Reading the words from the screen, he finally pinpoints the weird feeling he get every time he takes in qi from the Golden Spirit Pool, a non-threatening kind of peculiar that still brings him to the edge due to his curiosity,
'I doubt anyone will notice, so let's start cultivating as well' Wu Xiaotian thought to himself as he also assumes cultivation, entering the Infinite Qi Dimension the moment he closes his eyes.
