As Xiang Beifei's feet touched the water, it seemed as though it slickly moved aside, not wetting his body. He pondered for a bit, then withdrew his spiritual power, and found that his clothes were actually still dry.
"Erha, are you coming or not?" Xiang Beifei looked up and asked.
Erha looked down at the liquid beneath its feet and shook its head frantically, scared that the fluid would be forced back into its body, which was definitely not a pleasant experience.
"Woof, woof!" Xiaohei mocked Erha for being a scaredy-cat.
"Then you wait here and keep watch for me, alert me immediately if there's any situation," Xiang Beifei said.
Erha, too, was a creature from the Spirit Gathering Book and could communicate with Xiang Beifei telepathically.
After leaving Erha on the outside, Xiang Beifei continued downwards. The steps that were just now invisible at the bottom of the lake became increasingly numerous, layer by layer, as if they appeared in tandem with his descent.
