After spending a few hours experiencing Xiao Hua's experience, Yuan finally opened his eyes and looked around.
"They're not back yet?"
"They came back about an hour ago to tell us that they'll need a few more hours on the second floor, but Brother Yuan was absorbed in his own thing." Xiao Hua said to him.
"Oh, I see. That's fine. I still have a technique to learn, anyway."
"And thanks for showing me your experience, Xiao Hua. I think I understand why I cannot breakthrough."
"Why?" Xiao Hua asked.
"It's most likely due to the lack of spiritual energy in that place," he said.
Xiao Hua nodded and said, "Spiritual energy is incredibly important when one is trying to breakthrough because they'll need a massive amount of spiritual energy, hence why people usually choose a place with the most spiritual energy before they attempt to breakthrough."
"I see… This is going to be pretty tricky…" Yuan sighed.
