If you go to the center of the earth, most likely the pressure will increase, although it may often depend on the elevation or the altitude that you are at. Let us assume that the center of the Earth is located under the surface, hence we must take note that as the altitude increases above sea level, the pressure increases as well. It is the same as when the altitude decreases below sea level, the pressure increases as well. Thus, we can conclude that when you go to the center of the Earth, the pressure you are feeling increases.
