Night of the Broken Gliph - Chapter 561
The boys took a path that led them towards the waterfall.
Over the past few centuries, Great Wisdom City conducted extensive development on the Heavenly Silver Waterfall, separating it into nine different layers and excavating paths leading towards the waterfall for each layer.
The tunnels spanned about ten meters wide, with half built into the mountains, unreachable by the waterfall’s water, while the silver waterfall showered the other half– called the wet zone. As Kam Chin Kee and Chui Yim made their way towards their destination, they saw slight dents in the tunnel ground with faintly visible pools of silver water, clearly meant for cultivators to sit within and use the spring water to purify themselves.
They occasionally came across cultivators sitting under the waterfall, letting it shower them while they took the pain with their eyes closed.
The teens looked at them with admiration. It was evident now why the city was known for their close-range fighting techniques; the residents’ determination was superb. Despite being cultivators who focused on their physical body, the pain produced by the waterfall descending on them was unbearable, yet none of them budged in the slightest.
The teens did not have the intention to spectate someone else’s cultivation, thus they made their way to the depths of the waterfall and found a quiet spot without anyone nearby.
Boom boom boom!!
Water fell on them from above. Only now did the duo understand why the further down one went, the stronger the force – gravity. A mere fist-sized rock thrown from a mountain peak could become a deadly weapon, let alone a waterfall formed from the remains of an ancient beast!
Luckily, the teens were well-prepared and remained composed as they found a spot to cultivate.
Chui Yim and Kam Chin Kee experienced the uniqueness of the waterfall very soon.
It was as if there was a huge, fearsome silver hammer pounding their bodies. By doing this, their bodies were being refined, and they could even feel a type of mysterious energy seeping into their pores, refining the inside of their bodies too!
Kam Chin Kee immediately felt the superb benefits from this and tried not to get distracted by the pain so the refinement could continue.
On the other hand, Chui Yim felt the benefits even more strongly.
Take the Invincible Diamond Body as an example, which was separated into three different levels – bronze skin, iron bones, and gold body.
This type of cultivation that was used to refine the body could also be used to cultivate the inside of the body as well, but the difficulty of cultivation would become more and more difficult as one progressed.
He had already reached the iron bones stage, but in order to train the gold body level, it was no longer just about cultivating the skin, but the flesh and meridians as well.
Thus, cultivating the physical body was a profound field.
Chui Yim could feel that the benefits the waterfall brought to him was much more than he would’ve imagined. As someone whose physical cultivation had reached the three-chambered state after cultivating bronze skin and iron bones, plus the protection of Heaven’s Flame, Chui Yim didn’t feel any pain at all while cultivating. On the contrary, it was quite refreshing.
The waterfall’s essence soaked the whole body, reaching every cell.
Normally, no matter how hard one practiced or how powerful their body became, there would still be some flaws. No one was completely invincible because of these flaws known as Achilles Heels. They weren’t necessarily actual weaknesses, just parts that were weaker compared to the rest of the body.
However, the Heavenly Silver Waterfall would eliminate these Achilles Heels!
This function was enough to drive those below the three-chambered state crazy.
For those in the four-chambered state and above, they had already made up for their Achilles Heels as they had already broken through the boundary. Thus, it did not do much to strengthen the bodies of cultivators who had already broken through the boundary.
Even so, it was still useful to gliphists as it would increase their survivability in fights, and many hundred-gliphic gliphists would pay a huge sum in exchange for a chance to enter the waterfall.
Thus, the waterfall was one of Great Wisdom City’s main sources of income.
