Lu Zhiying: “...”
“Do you see the small rock by the side of the altar?” Zhao Yunxiao said while pretending not to notice Lu Zhiying’s look of dissatisfaction. “The waterfall has been strengthened by an array to adjust the water pressure according to your level of endurance. Tilt the rock forward to increase the pressure of the water or tilt it backwards to reduce it. If you still find that it is too weak, just tilt it forward again.”
Lu Zhiying looked down and realised that there was indeed a small rock by the side of her altar.
So that was why she felt that the pressure was very tolerable.
It was because they had yet to even begin the training!
“Make sure you go slow!” Gu Qiansi cautioned. “Both of you!”
“All right, let’s get started.”
Sitting cross legged on their respective altars, the three of them reached for the rock by their side.
Boom-!
Lu Zhiying’s confidence from earlier instantly shattered as the force of the waterfall doubled all of a sudden.
At this level, not to mention hours, there was no way she could even last ten minutes!
On the other hand, Zhao Yunxiao and Gu Qiansi tilted the rock forward once more, increasing the water pressure even further.
Unlike Lu Zhiying who was taking this with just her physique alone, the duo was guarding themselves with their essence energy as well.
Because of that, they were naturally able to withstand far higher levels of force.
The amazing thing was that when they tilted the rock by their side, it only affected the water pressure that was bearing down directly upon their respective altars and did not impact the other altars whatsoever.
This alone showed just how exquisitely the underlying array was designed.
Barely more than five minutes after starting, Lu Zhiying had already reached her limit.
It was not just about having the mental fortitude to endure either.
If that was the case, Lu Zhiying would have been more than capable of just sitting there and enduring the punishment.
However, her body simply could no longer keep up.
As time passed, she was no longer able to keep her back straight as the waterfall continued to press down on her. If things continued at this rate, she had a feeling that she might just end up engraved into the silver altar as a human monument!
Splash-!
When Lu Zhiying realised that her back was bending a little too much for comfort, she decisively escaped from the silver altar by diving into the plunge pool.
It was a little disappointing, but there was no point in continuing when she was no longer able to even do it properly anymore!
After climbing up the bank, Lu Zhiying started drying herself with a cloth that the duty disciple passed over to her.
Seemingly oblivious to the cheeks of the duty disciple that had turned red after seeing the drenched Lu Zhiying, she quickly turned her attention back to Zhao Yunxiao and Gu Qiansi who were still on their altars.
At this moment, both of them were sitting on their respective altars with their eyes closed, appearing to have entered a state of meditation while under the constant barrage of water.
</a> Zhao Yunxiao could not say the same about anything else. But when it came to physical endurance alone, he had absolute confidence in himself!
</a> His hand moved, and the small rock was tilted forward once more.
