The darkness flashed before his eyes, and Caspian felt his feet stepping on the ground.

Then, a cold tiny hand reached out to him and grabbed his hand from the side.

It was obvious that Maisie was afraid that Caspian was uneasy, so she held him.

That little gesture made Caspian feel warm in his heart.

Then, he heard the sound of gurgling water, and Caspian looked around and found that he was inwhat seemed to be an underground cave.

Not far in front of him, there was a round pool that covered a large area, and the liquid flowing in itwas like mercury.

The pool had no source and no downstream, and it was just there with its water flowingcontinuously.

As the light shone in the pool, the surface in the center of the circle reflected the seven colors of arainbow, revealing bursts of mystery.

“This is...” Caspian looked at Maisie.

“The spirit mountain spring,” Maisie replied, “Master gave me this place to cultivate when I waspromoted from the second stage to the third stage of the Pulse Control Realm.” Then, she pausedand turned to Caspian.

“I'll lend it to you first.”

Caspian nodded, walked to the side of the spring, and squatted to observe it.

Even though the mercury-like water flowed, its surface was smooth like a mirror.

Looking at it, Caspian could even see the pores on his face.

“This spring contains spiritual Qi, and it's extremely dense.

You can soak in it every day to cultivate, and it's beneficial for you to temper the meridians,” Maisieexplained, “I've thought about it.

With your current realm, the spirit mountain spring can help you the most.”

“Can it temper our body?" Caspian asked.

As he said that, he dipped his hand into the water, trying to feel it.

Even though there was only a little bit of water in his palm, Caspian felt as if he held a lead plate,which was extremely heavy.

"Yes, it can,” Maisie answered, “However, I'm not sure how much of a help it'll be.”

When Maisie used the spring mountain spirit to cultivate back then, she liked it because it couldprovide her with spiritual Qi.

Moreover, as Maisie was not good at fighting and rarely needed to battle, she did not need to trainher body much, so she did deliberately try it.

Caspian submerged his entire hand in the water and felt it for a while.

Later, he opened his eyes, and his eyes sparkled.

“Thank you, Maisie.

I'll be practicing here for a month.”

“Sure.” Maisie nodded, and she was naturally happy since she could help Caspian.

“However, I want to...” Caspian stood and shook his hand, “I want to go back for a while...”

“Do you need to prepare anything?” Maisie asked curiously.

"Yes, and I'll be back soon.” Caspian nodded.

Then, he looked around.

"How do I go out?”

“You need this key to get in and out,” Maisie explained, and then she taught Caspian how to enterand leave the spirit mountain spring, which was not difficult.

However, as a large array covered the spirit mountain spring, there was no way to leave without apassage.

Hence, Maisie taught Caspian how to use the jade key and draw several other formation patterns onthe array pattern, thereby opening the passage.

As Caspian had the foundation on inscriptions, coupled with Maisie’s in-depth explanation, it tookCaspian less than 15 minutes to understand how to enter and leave the spirit mountain spring.Based on Maisie’s guidance, Caspian’s eyes quickly lit up, and he brought Maisie away from thespirit mountain spring back to the center of the courtyard.

“I'll leave a special path for you in the future so you won't have any problems getting in and out,”Maisie looked at Caspian with a gaze full of encouragement and a hint of worry, “Don't forceyourself too much and tell me if you face any problem.

Also, I'll start to break through the Holy Land Realm a month later.”

Caspian pondered for a moment and asked, “Did Adrian give you pressure?”

“Somewhat.” Maisie did not avoid his question.

Although Maisie was much older than Adrian, his cultivation talent surpassed most of the HeavenlyStars Sect's disciples, let alone Maisie.

Now that he was accepted as Frankie's disciple, Adrian's speed of ascension would surely improveas he would be taught by a known master and receive massive resources from Frankie.

Therefore, as the younger generation that the radicals focused on training, it was impossible forMaisie to not feel pressured.

“Maisie, don't worry about it.

I'll always stand by your side,” Caspian said.

Then, he took a deep breath, appearing serious.

“Even though I'm not strong enough now, I'll surely be able to protect you in the future.”

A hint of gentleness appeared in Maisie’s eyes.

Despite only knowing Caspian for a short time, Caspian was just like her brother and was worthy ofher sacrifice.

Likewise, Caspian’s attitude now also warmed Maisie’s heart.

Soon, Maisie smiled and urged, “You should go home and get ready soon.

You'll need to battle a second-stage Pulse Control Realm opponent in a month, and that's a lot ofpressure.”

Caspian nodded and hurriedly left.

In the place where Maisie could not see him, Caspian’s eyes glistened with brilliance like a sky full ofstars, forming into a determination and sharpness that could pierce through the night.

"Just wait and see! There are many stronger opponents ahead of me, so how could I be blocked bysuch a small stumbling block as you!”

Maisie watched as Caspian left until he disappeared from her sight.

Then, Maisie turned around and walked into the courtyard behind her, mumbling, “Best of luck,Casper!”

Without stopping, Caspian returned to his residential courtyard.

Although he said he was back to prepare some stuff, cultivators would usually place their daily itemsin their storage bags, including weapons and precious medicines.

Hence, the preparation was just an excuse, and Caspian was back to feed the cub.

Candice, fondly nicknamed Candy, woke up two days ago and immediately hugged Caspian, lookingat him with teary eyes as he was hungry.

Caspian did not know the specific growth process of a monster, but in short, Little Candy changedsignificantly from the way it was since it was just born,

After several days of sleep, Little Candy's fluff has faded, replaced by the iconic white fur of a MirageWhite Tiger.

Nonetheless, Little Candy was still a cub and was only about 30 centimeters long, and its head onlyoccupied one-third of its full size.

That also made it look extremely adorable, especially when those watery eyes were widened and itmade baby noises at Caspian as it was hungry.

Even Caspian could not help holding Little Candy in his arms and petting it hard.

Once Caspian returned, he made sure no one was around before letting Little Candy out of theEarring of Echo.

The next second, a big white fluffy ball fell into Caspian’s arms.
