161 Chapter 161 Training Body Underwater (1/2)

Before the Chill Serpent evolved into a Dragon, it was naturally born with a mysterious chiling ability that was difficult to control. Thus, wherever it was located at any given time would freeze for hundreds of miles around.

Apart from the water temperature being slightly warm, and the water quality and air being clear, everything else was similar to ten thousand years in the future.

In the future, this place would be owned by a friend of his, creating a private island. His friend had changed the landscaping and renovated the place. However, looking at it now, it seemed like the natural scenery was a small battlefield.

Looking around, Zong Shou took out a few pills from his sleeves and swallowed them. Among them, the Body Washing Pill was necessary. Next would be the Psychic Mysterious Sense Pill, as well as two more pills called the Yang Fire Body Warming Pill and the Foundation Breathing Pill.

The latter could help one's breathing, while the former didn't have much use besides keeping the body as warm as an ember. These items were frequently seen even among commoners, especially in the slightly colder regions, where every house stored plenty of the pills.

In the end, after hesitating a little, Zong Shou decided to swallow a Spiritual Meridian Pill. When his body started to warm up, he took off his jacket, only keeping his under clothes. He somersaulted and dove into the pond.

He dove down to 1700 feet, where he felt currents flowing.

By the time he got to that point, the air in his chest was already used up. Luckily, using Little Gold and the Spiritual Vein Pearl, along with the fact that he was already a fake pill Xiantian, he was able to breathe by using the Breathing Pill and spiritual energy, so he had no fear of running out of air.

He continued to dive down, and about every ten feet he felt the pressure on him increase little by little. It was like there were five thousand kilograms of weight on him, about to crush his body. The currents at the bottom of the pond were an unstoppable force, charging and smashing into him.

Each hit brought about five thousand kilograms of force.

This lake was different from other lakes in the Cloud World. Although it seemed calm on the surface, the water was surging down below. The closer one was to the center, the more apparent it became.

This blackwater pond looked independent, but it was actually connected to the lake outside. Similarly, there were many currents that were even stronger. However, this place had abundant spiritual energy and it was away from where the Chill Serpent was resting; it was the most abundant place within a thousand square miles.

”This is the place!”

A roughly thousand-foot round stone platform appeared in front of his eyes. His body instantly tensed, and shot forward like an arrow.

Just as he was about to step up, a sudden current knocked him over with a force that could part the seas.

Zong Shou wasn't astonished, but instead was delighted. If he wasn't deep underwater, he would have just laughed out loud.

Ten thousand years from now, there were still not many changes to this place. But the current in this era was much stronger.

Conveniently, such a situation was exactly what he wanted!

He punched out using all of his strength, borrowing the tens of thousands of kilograms of the External Pill, to directly shatter the water current.

He then stepped onto the middle of the stone and right into the middle.

Now, although he felt immense pressure on his body, his bones even crackling, the vital energy and qi in his body was swiftly swarming. His heart was also like volcano pumping, warm and exciting.

In his last life, he borrowed the strong water pressure and currents, using a full three years to breathe through his barriers of Heaven. However in this era, using the essence of the lightning phoenix, he should be able to shorten that time to a tenth!

The effects of the Meridian Spirit Pill started to work, his veins and meridians began to soften, twist, and turn.

Zong Shou smiled, not bothering about the pain, moving himself towards the center of the platform. He started to train the series of the Spiral Meridian Energy Leading Technique.

Unlike normal, every action he did underwater was many times more difficult.

Under the water's pressure, moving his hands and legs needed tens and hundred times more strength than usual. In the hidden current, if he wasn't careful and his actions went out of shape, his entire body would be intense pain.

However a short moment later, not only did Zong Shou's meridians start to twist, all his blood vessels and even his flesh and bones started to burn.

It wasn't just because of the Body Washing Pill and Yang Fire Body Warming Pill coming into effect, it was because Zong Shou's motions had started to move all the energy in his body.

”Having the Lightning Phoenix Essence, the feeling of training underwater is so much different from my last life! However it is also thanks to the Psychic Mysterious Sense Pill that Yiren refined..”

The effects of this pill was exactly what Yiren said. Not only did it reduce pain, it also helped one maintain a clear mind.

This was exactly what was happening to Zong Shou. Under the effects of the pill, his senses was really clear. However, he found he would rather faint.

The feeling of being swallowed and consumed by ants all through his body, in his meridians and muscles, was challenging his limits.
