"Look over there!"
Everyone looked in the direction that Bi Yun was pointing and saw a small gap between the wall and the floor. It was even smaller than a mouse hole. Warriors usually knew how to shrink their bones, but it was too difficult to squeeze into such a small place, unless they really shrunk themselves into a mouse, and a very small one at that.
Alright, now they understood how the Chaos Rat got in. It must have gotten in through this crack.
"Haha, watch me."
Master Feng Lei laughed loudly before turning into a cloud of sand and drifting towards the crack. His Sandworm Beast might not be strong, but it was very good at this kind of thing.
"Wait for me!"
Bi Yun called back her Chaos Rat Beast, turned into a cloud of grey gas, and entered the gap.
"Xiaodie, go in quickly, don't let them take all the good stuff."
Wu Lili was anxious and called Xiaodie to go in quickly. Originally, Wu Xiaodie didn't want to fight with others, but seeing her cousin's anxious look, she had no choice but to reluctantly transform into a flame and enter the crack in the wall. Her beast was a Fire Phoenix, which had the ability to turn into flames.
Only Gu Xiaobei, Wu Lili, and Wu Mingying were left outside, staring at each other. Especially Gu Xiaobei, his beast was the Northern Sea Bear King. It was so big that it could not enter the gap no matter how hard it tried. Since Bi Yun and Feng Leizi had entered, the treasures would belong to his friends, so he was not worried.
Wu Lili and Wu Mingying were in a better mood after seeing Xiaodie enter. It was fine as long as the Wu Family did not lose out. The three of them were still thinking about how to enter if Du Feng was there. His beast was the Great Yan Demon Dragon. The entire corridor could not fit it, so how could it enter the gap? Actually, they did not know that Du Feng's beast could change its size at will. This gap was really not a problem for him.
"Again!"
This time, Du Feng did not remove the Water Trap Talisman, but waited for half an hour for it to disappear automatically. The big bubble formed by the Water Trap Talisman burst, and a huge water pressure rushed towards him.
"Air Breaking Fist!"
"Three Emperor Cannon Hammer!"
"Swimming Eight Trigrams Palm!"
After several rounds of training, Du Feng's muscles had basically adapted to the intensity of the water pressure. This time, he wasn't just punching and kicking. He was using his combat skills in the water. First, he started with unarmed combat skills. Every punch and palm contained a massive amount of true essence, so the power was naturally not small.
Unfortunately, those powerful moves would quickly weaken once they entered the water. The attack power withered like a wilted flower, extinguishing before it could even reach far. In the past, Du Feng's Void Piercing Fist could penetrate a willow leaf a hundred steps away. From a distance of a hundred steps, he punched out, and the aftershock of the punch could send a huge beast flying.
Now, when the Void Breaking Fist was thrown out, it didn't even reach five meters before it was crushed by the huge water pressure. The Three Emperor Cannon Hammer was slightly better because it did not attack through the air, but its power was still much weaker. The most difficult was still the Eight Trigrams Roaming Body Palm. This was because it had to be coordinated with one's movements, footwork, and vision. It also had to coordinate and mobilize muscle strength and true essence simultaneously. The requirements were extremely high. Under such huge water pressure, it was very difficult to synchronize.
The more difficult it was, the more one had to do it. This was the only way to train more effectively. Du Feng practiced the Eight Trigrams Roaming Body Palm in the water for more than ten hours. He only stopped when his joints were sore and his muscles were twitching, and his true essence was about to be exhausted.
This was the benefit of being in the Column room. It was fine even if he couldn't move his body. As long as he didn't cross the yellow safety line, he wouldn't be attacked, and people from the outside wouldn't be able to enter. Therefore, Du Feng practiced without restraint. He used the huge pressure of the water to push his body to the limit and then break through it.
Just like that, he would rest after he finished practicing, and then practice again after he rested. The sun couldn't be seen in the room, so he had to count the time in his heart. He practiced without rest. He basically practiced all the combat skills that he could use in the Void Sea Realm.
Feng Leizi and the others had already searched the third floor, and the other explorers had already left. They went to the Column room on the second floor several times, but they still didn't see Du Feng come out. In the end, he had no choice but to leave a message and leave the Three Mountains Palace.
Du Feng was the only one left in the entire Three Mountains Palace, and it was almost time for the Great Hall to close. The Three Mountains Palace would be open for a month, and the explorers would usually leave in ten days. Because the rooms on the second floor were too difficult, there was nothing left on the third floor after searching for a long time, and they couldn't even go up to the fourth floor. That was a place that only Heaven Seizing Realm experts could go.
At this moment, Du Feng didn't use the Water Avoidance Talisman. He just stood quietly in the room, allowing the huge water pressure to exert on his body. Because he had already completely adapted to this kind of pressure, he didn't need the Water Avoidance Talisman at all. Not to mention cultivation, even sleeping under this kind of water pressure wouldn't be a problem.
He pulled out the Black Dragon Sword and lightly stepped out of the safety yellow line. As he had expected, the trial area also had the same water pressure. He just didn't know what the enemy he was going to face was like.
What was going on? When Du Feng saw what came out, he was a bit dumbfounded. Because what appeared in front of him was a silver fish. This fish was called a silver shuttle. It lived in the deep sea and was known for its fast speed. However, the speed at which this silver shuttle was swimming was simply too slow.
According to Du Feng's initial thoughts, as long as he stepped into the trial area, the enemy would definitely quickly kill him. So when he entered, he gripped the Black Dragon Sword tightly and carefully, ready to raise his sword to defend at any time. If the opponent's movement technique was too fast and he couldn't dodge in time, he would first block the first strike.
Who would have thought that the silver barracuda would be so slow? It was as if it was swimming in thick glue. From Du Feng's point of view, it was simply a slow-motion disguise.
"It can't be a trap, right?"
Du Feng quickly circled around the silver barracuda a few times to observe its condition. Because he had already completely adapted to the pressure in the water, he didn't need to use the Water Avoidance Talisman. He could directly walk on the ground with his feet, so his speed was relatively fast. After circling around the silver barracuda a few times, it only swam a little more than a meter.
Well, now Du Feng could conclude that this wasn't a trap, but that the silver barracuda was really that slow. Its mouth was long and conical, and when it swam, it could rely on its speed to assassinate its prey. Now, at this speed, it couldn't even stab a snail.
