A Man Like None Other

Chapter 2611 Not A Bad Choice

“Mr. Samoll, I can get into the medicinal pool just like that? And what exactly is that medicinal pool?” Jared asked.

“Of course not. You'll need to undergo evaluations to get into the medicinal pool. But given your capabilities, I believe you can pass it easily,” Ghaylen said. “As for what the medicinal pool is, I'm not very sure either. But according to Emerald Cauldron Sect's ancient manual, it's the place where the sect's elder performs alchemy. Through years of accumulation, the pool is now rich in spiritual energy. This type of energy is at least a hundred times stronger than that from the heavens and earth. But there's a limit to how long one can soak in the pool every time it's opened.”

“A limit? Could it be that they're worried that the spiritual energy in the medicinal pool will be completely absorbed?”

“Completely absorbed?” Ghaylen laughed. “That medicinal pool is thousands of years old. The spiritual energy in there is as vast as the sea. How is it possible that it'll be completely absorbed? It's just that the spiritual energy inside there is too strong. Even though it can improve one's capabilities very quickly, there are side effects to that too. If one's physique is too weak, staying inside for too long will cause an explosion of the body and death. That's also why one has to go through evaluations. Even if you pass the evaluation, that doesn't mean you can stay in there for long. That's been tested by generations of disciples. You can't soak for any longer than an hour. Otherwise, there'll be side effects, ranging from damage to your organs to an explosion of the body.”

“No one has ever made it pass an hour?”

Jared was in disbelief. How is it possible that the body can't withstand an hour of soaking in that pool?

“There are, of course. But there's only a handful. Based on the records, a supreme elder stayed in the medicinal pool for three hours. He's the one who stayed the longest in the pool. He's still alive, but no one knows what cultivation level he has attained. I've never seen him before too!”

Ghaylen's gaze was filled with respect when he spoke. It was easy to tell the status the supreme elder held in Emerald Cauldron Sect.

Jared was even more fascinated by the medicinal pool after listening to Ghaylen's words. Now that he was increasing his cultivation level, he needed more resources. It would take him a long time if he only relied on the spiritual energy of the heavens and earth to cultivate.

To rapidly improve his capabilities, he would require a substantial amount of spiritual energy and resources. It seems like this medicinal pool is indeed not a bad choice!

While Jared and Ghaylen were still chatting, Sigurd returned after picking the herbs.

Seeing the two chatting happily, Sigurd could not help but feel slightly surprised. They were still fighting not long ago, but why do they seem to have become close friends now?

“Put down the herbs and you can go now...” Jared said to Sigurd.

“Aren't you following me to the sect? To join the sect and become a disciple, you'll have to go through the inner court's assessment,” Sigurd shared the rules to join the sect with Jared.
