"Not enough... deeper still..."
Gu Sheng gritted his teeth, suddenly stepping forward.
In an instant, the surrounding energy surged like a tidal wave. He felt a sweetness in his throat, a trickle of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
But instead of fear, he was delighted, for the power within him was circulating even faster, transforming the frenzied energy invading his body into nourishment for his flesh.
"Just as expected! The stronger the pressure here, the more active that thing becomes!"
Gu Sheng's eyes shone with excitement as he moved forward once more.
