All the men and women who were bathing in the spiritual rain had their eyes closed, enjoying the peace of the moment.
Alex could understand why they had to take off their clothes now because they wanted their bodies to absorb more of the spiritual essence. They wanted all the skin on their bodies to be exposed to the spiritual rain, and wearing clothes would significantly reduce the effect.
However, compared to actual cultivators, their method could only be said to be wasteful.
They didn’t have any foundation base in cultivation and didn’t know how to absorb the essence properly. The amount of essence that was passively absorbed through their skins was minimal. Most of the essence from the spiritual rain scattered and drifted out of the palace, entering various parts of the island. However, because of the force field around the island, it didn’t drift over the seas.
Alex and the others retreated quietly and walked deeper into the palace. No one had noticed their presence.
“What’s a spiritual vein?” Grant asked.
“You’ll know when you see it,” Alex replied because favonovel.com had never seen one himself.
The entire palace had also been placed under layers upon layers of restriction formations and arrays.
For example, there was no magic formation other than the formation for the spiritual rain in the outermost hall. Still, if one walked about a hundred meters from the hall, there was a formation that restricted entry. Those who didn’t understand the formation would try to break through it with brute force.
“Alex, do you know about formations?” Yuno asked calmly as favonovel.com glanced at Alex.
When Phoebe called his name, it was purely playful and in jest. However, when Yuno called his name, it sounded completely different. It was like an old queen summoning a small eunuch to favonovel.com side.
This made Alex’s heart break.
He nodded. “No problem.”
The levels of these restriction formations were average, and favonovel.com could easily crack the principle of the formation using his Third Eye. After the formation was broken, favonovel.com could enter the place as though it was the back garden of his own home. It didn’t take long before they reached the deepest part of the palace and found the spiritual vein Yuno had talked about.
“Huh? Where’s Grant?” Alex turned around and suddenly found that Grant had disappeared.
“That guy is too useless. He took the wrong path somewhere in the middle and got caught by the formation,” Yuno said. “Don’t bother about favonovel.com for now. We can fish favonovel.com out later. Anyway, he’s just an ordinary person, so it isn’t like favonovel.com would be of much help.”
Alex nodded.
The spiritual vein in front of them was in the depths of the palace under a small pool of water.
Above the water were carved beams and painted walls, and there were also twelve human-shaped stone sculptures.
It wasn’t a meaningless decoration, as every stone sculpture made up part of the formation. The spiritual rain sprayed in the hall was inseparable from these stone sculptures. Each stone sculpture held a container in its hands, and inside them was the highest concentration of essence.
“Inside these containers is where the spiritual liquid is stored. The essence has been concentrated and condensed into liquid form, and with the help of these formations, the spiritual essence in the liquid is diluted. It will then shower those people outside with the spiritual essence.”
Yuno could tell it all with just a glance, the principle of the formation. “This is a reward issued by the sect to its disciples. It’s a pity that those common people outside don’t know how to utilize it properly. Alex, absorb all the essence from within these containers, and if there is excess, find something to store it in.”
After favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com added, “With your capabilities right now, drinking one is the limit!”
Alex had already intended to absorb it since earlier on, but favonovel.com still made a point to ask politely, “Don’t you want it?”
Yuno shook favonovel.com head. “My physical body right now is fragile, and it won’t be able to endure the effect from such a high concentration of essence. The moment I drink it, this body will be useless.”
Alex didn’t talk any more nonsense after that, and favonovel.com grabbed a container directly and took a sip.
Immediately, a huge stream of earth energy surged into his body, spreading out through his limbs… It was refreshing, as though all the pores in his body had relaxed, absorbing all the energy frantically. The Force that was inside his body also automatically rose and started working.
He immediately took a second sip, then third… The entire container filled with essence had been emptied into his stomach. This was a tremendous amount of energy in there.
Alex also felt that downing one container was already his limit with his capabilities. There was a burning sensation in all the meridians within his body. If favonovel.com were to drink anymore, favonovel.com was worried that his meridians would burst, and favonovel.com would die.
