After the discussion outside become more lively things also become interesting.

The way people were dealing with the situation was different. Some were waiting patiently to mock others while others had some expectations.

After staying in the pool for more than a day, he no longer felt the spiritual energy as intense as before.

He had adapted to the place and tjus decided to move further in. After sinking in, he could feel some force coming from the center spreading outwards. 

Huang started to swim towards the depths of the pool. The people on the edge gad already moved further in some hours ago and thus when he took under water no one realized. 

Swimming past those busy absorbing spiritual energy in the pool he set his target further. 

The more he moved the colder thr sensation and also the pressure. He used sword force to withstand the pressure coming from the water. 

"This place is my limit. I should try absorbing the spiritual energy here before going forward." as he thought of that he sat cross-legged at the bottom. 

And the realm had started to rise to the peak of human level. 

Even with the huge amount of Spiritual energy he was absorbing the realm started to rise slowly after approaching the peak. 

After close to half a day, his spirit energy was already not making any progress. 

He was about to move out when he discovered his spirit energy was changing slightly. 

"Wait... It's evolving slowly to something else. I could hardly realize this if I had moved on. It seems the amount of Spiritual energy required to transform is alot. Does this mean evert realm improvement is an evolution to some extent. This though is too low to even notice."

After discovering the issue he was immersed into studying the change thus out aside the plan to enter the center for the moment. 

Based on his understanding the longest someone stayed in the pool is close to four weeks. 

A common genius takes three weeks and it is what is expected of those top ten individuals. 

After such a time reaching the heaven realm is not a big problem, but other factors would have to be observed for those that manage to sustain longer. 

The more he observed the change he become more sure that the evolution of spiritual energy was important. 

He even wondered if he could find a way to completely convert the spirit energy in his body without breaking through. 

At that time perhaps he might be stronger than anyone in the same realm.

"Advancing in cultivation is not the only way, onw should also have stronger foundation or their future path will become shorter." he murmured something he had seen in some records. 

"Back then I was just too obsessed with the cultivation of sword technique as foundation and forgot the most important thing. Regardless of how high a sword cultivation realm is, my body has to be foundation. With stronger body the future prospects and opportunities will become easier to grasp."as he thought of this his heart become very clear.

The idea of breaking through quickly to the martial heaven realm peak was abandoned. 

At the end of the day, as long as he properly improved his foundation hs could not fear those of heaven level. 

With this discovery, the first thing he did was let spiritual energy circulation in his body increase rather than impacting on bottleneck he was refining the purity of spirit energy. 

After some trials he could clearly feel it improving and at the same time, it become easier to sirvive in the pressure without sword force.

After becoming enlightened Huang no longer viewed a sword technique as hia focus and thus it allowed him to open more of his mind. 

Being limited to something ends up making one narrowed minded. 

He would not try to think of the sword as the strongest, his body was now his goal. 

The sword cultivation and others could only help him in supporting a strong body. 

The days passed by and after he gained some insights in how the spiritual energy in the body was evolving and comparing it with records he read in the library he moved in further. 

The same time his body started to release impurities from time to time. Such a situation was perhaps caused by improvement of his energy.

He was nowhere in the process of evolution as he assumed the first stage on the transformation is the barrier entering a new realm from heaven realm and thus lifespan increases.

Some people use technique comprehension to breakthrough but that methods are not really ensuring complete transformation.

If he could manage to transform his spiritual energy im entering the heaven realm then the more realms he broke through the stronger he would be compared to peers.

At the same time on the ninth day three people from the twenty had already left the pond. 

"who are those little bastards? Wasting an opportunity like this." as some elders saw this they were somehow upset. 

The entrance to the pond can't be entered by anyone. As for those that left when only nine days had passed were viewed as wasting resources. 

The truth wad though that the disciples had no idea about the actual situation of the pond.

Even the elders could only at most guess.

In early days disciples could use it due to being rewarded but it might also be the last time for some. 

Since the start of the sect branches things have always been like that. 

And those that prove more outstanding from this batch might even be lucky to be taken back to the main sect by the two elders present. 

The opportunities to enter the sect as an aouter sect disciple is already very good.

"Elder Shi how many days do you think the disciples with good aptitude will take?" 

As elder Liu asked, he was also hoping for appearance of good seedlings so that he could show off. 

Introducing a genius to the main sect was more than just a trivial matter. 

The benefits that come later might even Surpass anything else if the genius manages to stand up in the main sect. 

This is also the reason some elders want to personally come to the sect branches ans snatch geniuses. 

Having some fate with disciples before they have entered the main door and even get themselves stronger backers is important. 

With stronger backers even resources they obtain can be imagined. 

In the pond, Huang did not know or care about the politics going on in the heads of the elders. 

Sitting cross-legged in the pool wisps of Spiritual energy were being pushed out of his body from time to time before being absorbed again. 

The impurities on his skin surface accumulated around him and thus he would occasionally move further in. 

He had already broken through naturally all the way to the mid level of martial earth realm. 

It was just like that as he focused on refinement of his body using spiritual liquid. 

Currently his body produced some scent like spirit herbs. 

Thankfully it was faint and after another two weeks he had attained peak of earth realm. 

He stopped himself from breaking through again. 

He wanted to use the library and out more about the low realms. Based on the data in the library anything should be possible to obtain as long as he properly checks them out.
