After a day of sitting down and meditating, Pearl was able to improve himself enough that they could move some dozen or so meters ahead and sat down closer to the starting point of the gorge.
Alex was now about 100 or so meters away from the tip of the gorge and was around the same area as most other cultivators that were just starting as well.
Barring the experienced Saint realm cultivators, there were only a few that were further than them and they had been here for a while as far as Alex could tell.
Alex felt the aura and intent land on his body and simply brushed it off as if it was nothing.
Having sensed the aura and intent close to the tip of the gorge, Alex was sure he could handle anything about 10 meters away from it. They were but an inconvenience for him at this point.
Beyond the 10-meter area, however, was a location that most cultivators weren't sitting in, so Alex too felt a little reluctant to check that.
