The steward had asked the question out of instincts. However, he remembered clearly that he had registered the disciple card for Zen for the first time today, which meant that this was surely the first time that Zen had entered the Lake of Magical Fish.
Compared to Roger, the steward's shock was even higher!
Nature creatures weren't the sole people to practice in the lake. It had faced its fair share of disciples.
There were different levels of difficulty inside the lake ranging from the surface to a depth of three hundred meters.
However, generally speaking, the most a nature creature could penetrate was the first five levels, i.e. from the surface to a depth of 150 meters. They almost always lost beyond that.
Besides, the water of the lake was also heavier than the usual ones, added to which, was the fact that
the deeper you went inside, the greater the pressure you would encounter.
At a depth of ten meters, the water pressure had only the weight of 500 pounds. However, at a depth of thirty meters, it could reach as much as 2000 pounds. And if one were to venture down to one hundred meters, the force he would encounter would be more than 10, 000 pounds. It was a horrible experience!
A depth of 150 meters was already the limit that the nature creatures could reach.
In addition to those horrific levels of water pressure, the practitioners had to face the Murlocs in the magic array each time they got cultivated inside the lake.
And the power of the Murlocs was supposed to increase with increasing depth.
The uppermost Murlocs were the weakest among all and were called as the fourth-grade Murlocs. Though not that hard to beat, they were no less powerful than a human being half-step into the nature level.
Between 30 meters to 60 meters, the yellow and light blue Murlocs would show up. The blue Murloc was smaller in size than the yellow one, but was more agile and moved faster.
So in a way, its competence was that of a first grade nature creature.
Beyond the 60 meters mark, more Murlocs with higher abilities and competence would appear.
Therefore, even if a nature creature had reached the ninth-grade of the nature level, he couldn't break the limit of 150 meters.
However, there was no shortage of gifted man in the Cloud Sect.
It was said that two hundred years ago, a gifted nature creature had dived to a depth of 190 meters under the lake. This was an accomplishment that usually could only be made by the practitioners of the Illuminating Soul Realm.
No one had ever approached or broken this record till now. However, that person was at the eighth-grade of the nature level, which was so much higher than Zen's level.
After he had killed the three Murlocs, Zen didn't stay afloat in the same position for a long time. Instead, he kept diving downwards.
He could dive at a rapid pace easily in his current condition by waving the fishtail on his back.
However, his intentions for visiting the lake were not the mundane practice of diving but to hone and cultivate himself.
