Gao Zhengyang sat on the chair and looked around.
The decorations were the same as before he left, and the two girls were still serving him.
Nothing seemed to have changed, except for him.
"Gao, the food is ready."
The round-faced girl who served Gao Zhengyang said to Gao Zhengyang outside the door.
Gao Zhengyang knew this girl, Lin Erya. She was quite an interesting girl.
Lin Erya was very afraid of Gao Zhengyang, but she was even more afraid of the White Tiger, but she suppressed her fear and walked over step by step. There was something indescribably funny about her shivering and pitiful appearance.
"Okay." Gao Zhengyang agreed and entered the main hall. He called in the kitten who was sleeping lazily in the yard, and they ate a very fragrant meal together.
Of course, the amount of food couldn't satisfy him, nor could it satisfy the kitten.
Ordinary food couldn't compare to the flesh and blood of demon beasts.
Gao Zhengyang decided to wait for two days. If Jue Mie didn't come, he would go hunting.
Jue Mie came very quickly. The sky outside had just darkened, and he sat opposite Gao Zhengyang.
"Master didn't bring anything to eat?" Gao Zhengyang looked at Jue Mie's empty hands with a face full of resentment.
The first important thing to cultivate the Black Tortoise Indestructible Body was to dig out the potential of the body.
It was easy to stimulate the potential, but to turn the potential that burst out into real power and completely stabilize it, it needed to replenish enough Essence Qi. Only then could he lay a solid foundation.
Therefore, Gao Zhengyang had to eat demon beasts' flesh and blood every day. Through eating, he absorbed enough Essence Qi to replenish his body's needs.
Below Heaven Stage, no matter how high the cultivation level was, they had to replenish their needs through food.
In the past few months, Gao Zhengyang's appetite had become picky. Demon beasts below the third rank didn't taste much when they ate.
Gao Zhengyang's titanium alloy stomach could be said to be the best in the world in terms of digestion.
Even bone dregs could be forcefully absorbed.
The meal he had just eaten was just to satisfy his taste buds. His stomach was almost empty.
Jue Mie didn't bring any food. Gao Zhengyang couldn't bear it anymore.
Jue Mie ignored Gao Zhengyang's resentment and said indifferently, "You have already grasped the basics of the Black Tortoise Indestructible Physique, but your progress is still too slow. I need to change my cultivation method. "
"Master, please speak," Gao Zhengyang muttered in his heart. He didn't know what Jue Mie was up to.
But now, he was not qualified to talk about conditions. He could only let the Jue Mie manipulate him.
However, Gao Zhengyang was not afraid. Jue Mie had spent a lot of effort on him. Before he achieved his goal, he would only treat him as a treasure.
"Let's talk outside."
Jue Mie flicked his sleeve, and Gao Zhengyang felt a strong gust of wind blowing against him, causing him to have difficulty breathing.
When he regained his breath, he realized he was already at the center of the pool.
The night was dark, and there was no wind. The smoke from the chimneys in the Tielin Sect spread throughout the valley. It made the night even darker and more hazy.
At this late hour, even the children who loved to play the most had gone home.
The ice surface of the pool faintly glowed with a faint blue luster. It was much brighter than other places.
Gao Zhengyang sat on a chair and looked around. He didn't hide the surprise on his face.
In the blink of an eye, he had moved from the house to here. He didn't feel any change in position or space.
It was as if the two of them had been sitting here all along.
Although Gao Zhengyang knew that Jue Mie was strong, he only had a direct understanding of Jue Mie's strength now.
This move was indeed mysterious. Gao Zhengyang couldn't even guess how Jue Mie did it.
Jue Mie didn't explain. Instead, he pointed at the ice surface and said, "From today onwards, you will cultivate in the pool every night."
Gao Zhengyang was moved. Did Jue Mie really want to find the Divine Soldier in the pool?
The legend of the Divine Soldier had been around for a long time. It might not be just a legend.
A powerhouse like Jue Mie wouldn't waste his energy for an illusory legend.
He was a shrewd person. He had stayed in the Eastern Wilderness Mountains for thirty years. How could he not have a purpose?
Gao Zhengyang smiled and said, "I don't know if I can get the Divine Soldier by cultivating here!"
Jue Mie smiled meaningfully. "You can try."
Gao Zhengyang took off all his clothes, leaving only a pair of shorts on. With a stomp of his feet, countless cracks appeared on the ice that was several feet thick.
After a while, the ice surface collapsed, and Gao Zhengyang fell with the broken ice.
"I will try."
Before Gao Zhengyang entered the water, he smiled and said to Jue Mie.
In the dark night, the round hole in the ice surface seemed even more serene.
Jue Mie noticed that the hole in the ice surface was perfectly round, as if it had been chiseled with tools.
Furthermore, the surface of the ice was very smooth. There wasn't a single large ice shard.
Gao Zhengyang's strength was naturally not worth mentioning. However, his control over his strength was indeed on point.
Jue Mie also found it a little strange. Gao Zhengyang had extraordinary talent in the Nine Dragon-Snake Transformations.
He could understand everything with just a little explanation.
If not for the limitations of his physique, he would have already reached the entry level of the Black Tortoise Indestructible Body.
But overall, Gao Zhengyang's speed of improvement surprised even Jue Mie.
Although the Nine Dragon-Snake Transformations was based on body refinement, its essence was the world's number one divine art. It was extremely profound and profound.
Gao Zhengyang's extraordinary performance also raised Jue Mie's expectations.
Amidst the splashing water, Gao Zhengyang poked his head out and said, "I didn't find it."
"The Black Tortoise represents water. Although the Black Tortoise has unparalleled strength, its internal essence is also water. This is the softest and most unyielding strength in the world. Cultivate and experience it well inside. Don't come out to breathe before dawn … "
As Jue Mie spoke, he flicked his sleeves. A huge wave of energy descended from the sky and pressed down on Gao Zhengyang's body.
Gao Zhengyang felt as if a mountain had suddenly appeared on his head.
To be more precise, it was an enormous and unstoppable force.
Gao Zhengyang was like a fired cannonball, shooting downwards.
The resistance in the water was great. Sliding at high speed underwater, the pressure was terrifying.
To put it simply, at Gao Zhengyang's speed, water would become as hard as sand.
He felt as if he was being dragged by a car, sliding at high speed in the sand. The terrifying friction could grind a person into meat paste.
Fortunately, Gao Zhengyang's Black Tortoise Indestructible Body was tyrannical. His skin could resist the sharp blade.
When he tightened his muscles, he could resist the terrifying water pressure.
The alloy bones could easily support his body, preventing it from twisting and deforming. It could maintain an optimal gliding posture.
Gao Zhengyang still had a worry in his heart. It would be bad if he hit the bottom of the pool at such a fast speed.
After shooting out for thousands of feet, the pressure on Gao Zhengyang's body slowly dissipated. He didn't touch anything.
Looking at his feet, it was pitch-black. He couldn't see the bottom at all. There was only endless depth.
"This place is really strange."
Gao Zhengyang had never seen such a deep pool. Even with his courage, he felt diffident.
He was no longer interested in looking for the Divine Soldier. He just wanted to go up and take a breather.
It was easy to slow down, but it wasn't easy to swim back.
Moreover, the water pressure at thousands of feet deep was also very terrifying.
Gao Zhengyang's movement here consumed a hundred times more energy than on land.
At this time, the Turtle Breathing Technique really came into play.
Gao Zhengyang stopped breathing outside. He only relied on his inner Qi to circulate continuously. He reduced the need for air to the minimum.
However, the Turtle Breathing Technique also had a limit. He couldn't breathe underwater.
No matter how long a breath was, there was still a limit.
Gao Zhengyang had to swim up as soon as possible to take a breather.
His limbs were a little weak. Gao Zhengyang finally saw a glimmer of light above his head.
He was instantly excited. He waved his arms and wanted to rush out of that light.
The comfortable breathing that Gao Zhengyang expected didn't happen.
Another huge force pressed down, repeating the process just now.
"Damn it!" Gao Zhengyang cursed in his heart. He could only helplessly accept reality.
When the huge force on his body dissipated, Gao Zhengyang felt that it seemed to be a little deeper than the last time.
He didn't dare to hesitate and hurriedly floated up.
When he saw the light again, Gao Zhengyang was excited, happy, and looking forward to seeing his first love.
When the familiar unparalleled force fell again, Gao Zhengyang was really a little annoyed.
"Damn it!"
No matter how annoyed Gao Zhengyang was, he was once again sent to the bottom of the water thousands of feet deep.
This time, Gao Zhengyang didn't dare to exert his strength.
Gao Zhengyang could see that Jue Mie was playing with his rhythm. If he rushed up again, he would suffer even more.
Moreover, after two times of consumption, his breath was no longer enough.
Thinking of Jue Mie saying to go up at dawn, Gao Zhengyang secretly complained.
The winter night was long. It would take at least 14 hours for the sky to brighten. He had been in the water for so long, but it hadn't even been two hours.
Gao Zhengyang knew that Jue Mie treated him like a treasure and wouldn't let him die. There must be a deeper meaning to forcing him like this.
Whether he liked it or not, he could only try his best to find a solution now that he was forced to this step.
Gao Zhengyang suppressed the fickleness in his heart and calmed down to think.
Jue Mie had said before that Black Tortoise represented water, the softest and strongest force in the world.
This sentence was actually just empty words, without any substance. The key was the hint given by Jue Mie.
Gao Zhengyang immediately understood. Jue Mie was playing with him to give him huge pressure and force him to comprehend the essence of Black Tortoise Indestructible Body.
"I hate people who don't speak human language the most!" Gao Zhengyang cursed in his heart.
After finding his train of thought, Gao Zhengyang stopped trying to swim up. He relaxed his body and slowly got into the posture of Black Tortoise.
At the same time, he visualized the Dharma of Black Tortoise and Nether Snake in the Divine Palace.
The Black Tortoise was deep and persevering like the earth, firm and majestic like a mountain. It was just lying there, naturally giving off an unshakable feeling.
The Nether Snake's body was tough and long, like an endless river. It also gave off a mysterious feeling of waiting for an opportunity to move.
Gao Zhengyang didn't know how many times he had visualized this Dharma. But when he visualized it again thousands of feet underwater, he had a new understanding.
His life force was restrained, his spirit was hidden, and he got rid of all impulsive thoughts. He endured everything like a Black Tortoise.
The changes in the Spirit allowed his body to adjust naturally and adapt to the underwater environment.
At the same time, Gao Zhengyang kept the Nether Snake in his Spirit and waited patiently for an opportunity.
After an unknown period of time, Gao Zhengyang suddenly had an idea. His body twisted like a snake and quietly broke out of the water, landing on the ice.
Jue Mie raised his head to look at the faint white light in the east. He smiled and said, "Well done."
