Chapter 826: 261.Extreme·Fancy Moves_3

“Oh~ success~”

Noland Lee laughed heartily in his mind, waving his fist with excitement.

The system messages in his mind were not over yet.

[This practice of the Deep Sea Scales Meditation now requires four times the normal consumption.]

[It is estimated that every 5 minutes, your Soul Strength will be reduced by 20 points, Energy Points by 200, and “Tenacity” attribute temporarily by 4 points.]

[Please note, once “Tenacity” falls to zero, you will die instantly.]

Noland Lee’s “Tenacity” was at 100 points.

Therefore, under quadruple cultivation intensity, he could continuously cultivate for 124 minutes, which was his limit.

The behavior of using water pressure to increase the degree of deconstruction while “Tenacity” was slowly dropping was fraught with danger.

One lapse of concentration and Noland Lee could allow his gradually weakening body to be crushed by the immense water pressure.

It was precisely because he anticipated this dangerous factor that he had brought his companion witches along, just in case.

Noland Lee took a deep breath in the water, with his head down and feet up, his arms stirring in front of him as he swam toward a deeper, darker place.

The water pressure gradually increased, and the light dimmed further.

Noland Lee felt as if he was wearing a tight suit.

The “tight suit” kept shrinking, tighter and tighter, as if it wanted to burrow into his skin.

The smooth breathing afforded by the Deep Sea Gills was starting to leave him.

He had to use more strength, forcefully expanding his chest to maintain breathing.

His heart rate suddenly picked up, blood flowing turbulently.

In addition to the swirling sound of sea water, a persistent, sharp ringing in his ears appeared.

“Huff… hiss… huff… hiss…”

Noland Lee breathed with difficulty.

[System Message:]

[You are suffering from the “water pressure” assault of the four-piece sea area.]

“Ah, not bad, as expected. It seems I’ve controlled my body well and not missed any sea area,” he thought.

Noland Lee slowly waved his arms and kicked his legs, keeping himself at the current depth.

He looked down at the pitch-black sea water, eyes sweeping over the white coordinate axis stretching straight downward.

With “Tracking Mark,” “Mind View,” and “Perception Enhancement” in place, he did not worry about encountering any terrible deep sea demons.

He had ample time to react before any monsters could launch an attack on him.

Quietly waiting for 10 minutes, Noland Lee’s body sounded with a series of crisp crackles as the first damage resolution arrived.

[You have received minor damage from the four-piece sea area.]

[Activate Passive Deconstruction!]

[Your degree of deconstruction of “Starfall Sea No. 13,” “No. 14,” “No. 15,” and “No. 16” subareas has increased by 0.1%.]

“Haha~ As expected! Now I’m going to make a killing! Deconstructing four subareas at once! Earning four times the Energy Value Rewards!”

Noland Lee smiled underwater, bubbles escaping from him.

He was thrilled and proud in his heart but did not let his guard down, nor did he become complacent.

His choice of the four sea subareas for the experiment was not arbitrary.

Considering the diminishing returns of Energy Value Rewards, Noland Lee determined:

Only by simultaneously deconstructing subareas No.13 to No.16, the four vast expanses of the Starfall Sea Subarea, could he earn the most Energy Value Rewards in a short time.

Noland Lee steadied his mind, monitoring the data on the panel while closely feeling the pain of the sea water crushing his bones.

From his experience of underwater cultivation, the impact of water pressure on the body would suddenly increase when the “Tenacity” value was cut by half.

The sharp pain that went deep into the marrow and soul was hard to withstand.

The murky seawater around him and the pitch-black Abyss beneath exerted limited physical damage on his body, but the pressure they formed on the mental level could not be ignored.

As a prudent man, Noland Lee naturally would not push himself to the brink.

After about 60 minutes, just as “Tenacity” was about to halve, Noland Lee swam toward the sunlight-dappled sea surface above.

Returning to the pressure cabin, he took a brief rest and brought up the system messages to check.
