The Night Pool rested deep beneath the forbidden region of Nine Lotus Academy like a hidden world separated from reality itself.
Cold silver mist floated endlessly across the massive underground cave while streams of dense Yin energy moved through the air like invisible rivers.
The atmosphere itself felt ancient.
Silent.
Heavy.
Mysterious.
The entire underground region was illuminated only by pale moon crystals embedded naturally within the cave walls. Their dim silver light reflected across the giant black waters of the Night Pool, making the place look unreal.
At the center of the underground cave rested the Night Pool itself.
Nearly the size of a football field.
The water looked dark like ink, yet faint silver ripples shimmered continuously across its surface as if moonlight itself had dissolved inside the pool. Ancient formation symbols glowed beneath the waters slowly, constantly drawing Yin energy from the surrounding mountains into the pool.
