Chapter 1070 You Are Crazy!
William didn't know what to say, except to change the subject:
"I got this from the other world we went to, it seems its spirit power is quite concentrated and pure. This is great news! We can come here when reaching the pinnacle stage, and get endless benefits from training here."
"This…" Speaking about this shifted her attention away from what she wanted to ask, "Are you sure it's safe?"
"Nothing in this world is safe, right?" he shrugged, "As long as I'm here, we can handle it."
"What if… It just came out…" She pointed towards the hole with both hands and didn't know how to explain her thoughts.
"I hope it won't," William looked at the hole before adding, "This hole is the only thing stopping that spirit power from spreading. I've been there for hours, and so far it's so good."
"But it may leak out, and hurt lots of people right?" She interrupted him, and he couldn't refute her words.
"Then we'll shut down this base, for now," he decided, "at least everyone is already away. And we have another base outside for those who want to return and live here."
"Good decision," she nodded in agreement, before looking around, "What shall we do now?"
"Now? We'll train," he paused, looking again at the hole before adding, "Do you want to hear something crazy?"
"No, don't tell me any of that," she raised a hand in front of his face, as she realised what he wanted to say without the need to hear his words.
"Come on, it's bad indeed, but at least you'll save months of training," he winked, and his words managed to tempt her to think about doing it.
"But…"
"I saw you, you can handle yourself pretty well at the hole opening down there…"
"By hanging myself to the ceiling? Holding by my four? No, thanks, that was pretty humiliating, and don't ever bring any of this to any girl, got it?" she recalled this point and felt how bad this would be if news spread over.
"Don't worry, let me get down there and do something for you," he didn't wait for her to say anything, jumped directly into the hole, and vanished.
"He… Is indeed something else," she stood at the edge of the hole, muttering these words while looking at the emptiness of that hole.
He didn't take long and returned in just one hour. When he came back, she noticed how his gear and uniform were all stained with black colour.
Even his face turned black, giving her a fright when she saw him at first. "What happened? Are you alright?"
"It's ok, just ash from the burnt ores," he paused, coughing a couple of times, before adding, "Let's go, I prepared something nice for you down there."
"Are you sure it's safe?" She gave him a doubtful look, but he shrugged and casually said it was okay before holding her and jumping down into the hole.
This time she screamed, as she expected the worst. And as she expected, the moment they arrived there, she felt great and intoxicating refreshment for a few seconds, before needles started pricking her skin again.
"Hold tight, I'm going to jump," they landed just in the heart of this place, and so they got surrounded with copious amounts of dark green fog.
Yet he didn't wait for more than a few seconds to stabilise himself, before jumping high. The ceiling wasn't that far off of his reach right now, and with a single dash upward, he managed to get to a place that had a metallic little cave there.
"Impressive, you built this for me? So sweet!" She couldn't help but feel touched by his efforts. This was like a small room, built with ores that could transport and store spirit power inside.
As this room was built near the hole opening, the concentration of spirit power there was low enough for her to endure. It was safely connected to the rocky edges of the hole, and that made her able to sit freely and train without any problems.
The room could handle William's big spirit body's weight, and that was enough testimony to how safe it was.
"Stay here, I'll go down there to train," he jumped off the circular opening of the room, "Once getting tired, will come and rest here."
"Waiting for you," she ran to the edge, looking at the world down below as if she was looking at a dangerous pit of hell or something, "Please, come back safely," she muttered, before trying to see anything down below but couldn't.
The place down there looked more like a green sandstorm just struck there, and was fiercely growing in strength and size. After a few minutes, she started to train, and he also did the same.
The spirit power concentration grew exponentially during the past few hours, and he couldn't handle being down there for more than one hour. Then he'd make a run to her room before he'd suffer from this spirit power massively.
He found her training for hours, so didn't try to interrupt her. Even if he came here to rest, this place still had the pure spirit power. So he continued training for two hours there, before going down below to resume the hellish training.
The higher concentrated spirit power down below was very beneficial to him. After doing this ten times, he could last for ten minutes longer, and this made him quite excited.
"I'm growing stronger, getting used to this power…" he knew this wasn't just a growth in spirit power terms, but also a fundamental and revolutionary change that was affecting his body right now.
He was going through a total body rebuild, one that would make his body suitable to sustain the outer world. As such benefits were on hand, he decided to bring all the team members and friends he'd selected to go out with him to the outer world, and let them come here and train.
