That night, Ren Baqian entered the [Visualization of Water] again. It was still a lifeless lake with a faint mist and a few small trees.
Ren Baqian couldn't wait and dived into the lake. He swam to the center of the lake and dived down. Ten meters, twenty meters, thirty meters. The water pressure was getting stronger and the surrounding optical fibers were getting dimmer and dimmer.
However, Ren Baqian's condition today was better than yesterday. His heart was burning with passion.
When his fingers touched the object below again, there was still a little bit of air left in Ren Baqian's lungs.
According to his experience, he could hold on for another ten seconds or so.
These days, he was very familiar with the condition of his body when he dived down.
Due to the lack of oxygen in his lungs, Ren Baqian started to feel a burning pain. He focused all his attention on his hands and touched his surroundings.
It wasn't mud as he expected, but a stone-like bottom. At the same time, one of his hands touched something protruding out. When he wanted to carefully identify what it was, he suddenly woke up and felt tired all over.
"What a pity, just a little bit more," Ren Baqian thought.
"But just a little bit more. I can definitely do it tomorrow." Ren Baqian waved his fist, but he didn't have any energy and went straight to sleep.
The next day, Ren Baqian dived to the bottom of the lake again to look for the object he touched last night. This time, he finally touched it. It was something that looked like a stone ring.
When he woke up from the [Visualization of Water], he was somewhat unwilling. He was just a little bit away.
That stone ring should be pulled off, right? Could it be pulled off? Was there something below? Ren Baqian thought to himself.
There was no record of this in the [Ruyi Visualization].
"I can definitely do it tomorrow!" Ren Baqian lay on the bed and waved his arms.
On the third day, Ren Baqian withdrew from the [Visualization of Water] again with a trace of unwillingness on his face.
"I can definitely do it tomorrow!"
On the fourth day, Ren Baqian withdrew from the [Visualization of Water] and lay on the bed …
"Damn it!"
On the fifth day, Ren Baqian cursed, "F * ck!"
…
There wasn't much progress over the past five days. Even Ren Baqian had some doubts about whether his method was wrong.
However, in the end, Ren Baqian carefully thought about the [Ruyi Visualization] that he was practicing. This [Visualization of Water], from the start, was to absorb the effects of medicine and change his body little by little. Besides increasing his strength, his stamina was much better than before.
For example, even if he walked for a few hours, he would not feel tired at all.
His daily [Visualization of Water] dive to the bottom of the lake was to put pressure on his body on the consciousness level. At the same time, it affected his external body and unearthed his body's potential. This was the process of his body absorbing the medicinal effects.
From the beginning, the [Visualization of Water] had always been used for this purpose.
Then, that Shi Huan definitely wasn't playing some puzzle-solving game with him. Instead, it was the same as before, trying to squeeze him dry so that he could unearth his body's potential.
Now that he was at the bottom of the lake, what he needed to do was to pull up the stone chains.
At the thought of this, Ren Baqian made up his mind. If one day wasn't enough, then two. One day, he would be able to pull up that stone ring.
After a few more days, Ren Baqian returned from Earth and took another medicinal bath. He pulled the stone hoop again, and after using all his strength, he finally felt as if he could pull it up a little.
This made him overjoyed. He knew that he had done the right thing.
The stone slab under the stone ring was pulled up a little. There seemed to be a door there.
Another day passed. On this day, Ren Baqian was lying on his bed practicing the [Visualization of Water]. His originally calm body suddenly trembled.
Two streams of heat flowed from his kidneys and began to circulate throughout his body.
Wherever the two streams of heat flowed, his blood vessels and veins bulged. His muscles also bulged as if there was something swimming under his muscles.
As the heat flowed through his body, Ren Baqian's body heated up and turned red at the same time. It was as if he was having a high fever. His body temperature quickly rose to 40 degrees Celsius. However, all his sweat pores were tightly shut, and the heat could not be discharged along with his sweat.
After a while, Ren Baqian's head began to emit a steam-like gas, just like a large kettle.
If this was seen by someone on Earth, they would probably think that they were witnessing the legendary "Three Flowers at the Crown and Five Qis Toward the Origin."
After a long time, the white gas on Ren Baqian's head began to decrease, and his body temperature also dropped.
At this moment, Ren Baqian slowly woke up.
He had just woken up, but he did not feel the feeling of breaking through a bottleneck or advancing in his cultivation. His whole body felt exhausted, thirsty, and tired. His mind was not very clear, and he only wanted to have a good sleep.
He struggled to get up and drank three cups of water before falling into a deep sleep on the bed.
Ren Baqian was woken up by hunger. He could not see the exact time, but the sky was not bright yet. His stomach felt like it was on fire, and every cell in his body was screaming for hunger.
He got up from the bed, ran out of the room at lightning speed, picked up a bamboo shoot that was prepared for Tiantian and Gungun, and started to chew on it.
The two little chaps were woken up by him. When they realized that he was secretly eating their bamboo shoots, they staggered forward and wanted to snatch it back.
However, Ren Baqian's eyes were glowing green. He even had the intention to roast these two chaps. When he saw them, he could smell the smell of meat.
"Sir Ren!" The guards outside were alarmed by the noise inside. They came in to check and found Ren Baqian squatting there. His eyes were glowing green, and he looked terrifying.
"Quick, bring me to the imperial kitchen. I am going to starve to death!" Ren Baqian had already finished his second bamboo shoot, but his stomach did not feel any better.
He knew what he needed. Meat, a lot of meat.
When they arrived at the imperial kitchen, Ren Baqian did not see any leftovers. Regardless of whether it was vegetables or meat, they were all raw.
He chewed on the fruits while getting someone to start the fire and stew the meat.
After struggling for three hours, Ren Baqian ate two pots of meat consecutively, which weighed about 15 to 20 kilograms, before the feeling of hunger finally subsided.
Ren Baqian leaned against the wall and sat on the ground. He really wanted to curse in his heart. The last time he encountered such a situation, it was the same for this breakthrough. The next time he broke through, he must prepare food first. At least, he had to prepare a few kilograms of braised beef. Otherwise, the feeling of hunger from head to toe wasn't something an ordinary person could endure.
After resting, Ren Baqian picked his teeth while strolling back to Pingle Park. The sky was already bright.
At this moment, Ren Baqian felt a little uncomfortable. It was as if his body was a lot more relaxed. His legs were light, and walking was almost like a moonwalk.
When he returned to Pingle Park, he tried running ten meters in an instant. His speed was much faster than before.
If he needed around 13 seconds to run a hundred meters previously, he only needed around eight to nine seconds now. However, he still felt as if he was not exerting his strength.
The sudden change in his body made it difficult for him to control it.
At the same time, the speed of his punches had increased a lot.
This was especially true for his strength. When Ren Baqian returned to Pingle Park and played with the stone dumbbell, his strength had increased by at least 50 kilograms.
This meant that he now had more than 600 kilograms of strength.
As for his jumping ability, this was the biggest improvement. He was able to jump up a two-meter tall wall with just one step.
Ren Baqian clenched his fists with a face full of joy. This breakthrough had actually improved his body so much.
Following which, he asked the guards to help him test out other aspects of his abilities. He realized that his dynamic vision and reaction time were much faster than before.
For example, when he was fighting with Tong Lan previously, he couldn't see her movements clearly. Even if he could see them occasionally, his body couldn't react in time.
After the test, Ren Baqian was excited for the whole day. He had finally advanced to the Man Wheel level and could be considered a practitioner. Furthermore, his strength had improved a lot.
Even though his strength had only increased from 250 kilograms to 600 kilograms, the result of this increase of 100 kilograms was crushing.
Needless to say, his speed had increased by 40%, his jumping ability had doubled, and his dynamic vision and reaction time had increased by 30%.
If he were to compare his current strength with that of a day ago, Ren Baqian felt that he could fight against three people effortlessly.
A difference of 30% to 40% wasn't considered big, but in fact, it was like the difference between heaven and earth.
If he were to fight with his previous self, he would be able to see the movements that he couldn't see clearly previously. He could now dodge the attacks that he couldn't dodge previously.
On the other hand, Tong Lan's perspective was the exact opposite.
Ren Baqian had an excited smile on his face all the way until he stood with Tong Lan at the training ground in the afternoon.
First, he played the background music for himself.
"Theme."
As the majestic music sounded, it was as if the prologue of a smoky battlefield had begun.
Ren Baqian's blood was boiling. After being beaten up by the little lolita for so long, he could finally take revenge today. He could finally rise up.
Even if he still wasn't her match, he wanted to give her a scare.
"Sir Tong!" Ren Baqian suddenly put away his previous expression and smiled at the person behind the little lolita.
Then, he lowered his body and rushed toward Tong Lan like a leopard. His first move was a series of punches.
The little lolita was startled by his sudden increase in speed and was indeed caught unprepared.
However, it was only for a moment.
"Bang!"
Ren Baqian flew out in an arc and landed heavily on the ground.
"Sigh, such is life!" Ren Baqian lay on the ground, looked at the azure sky, and let out a faint sigh.
"Your strength has improved!" The little lolita was surprised. Ren Baqian actually improved so much today compared to the day before yesterday.
He actually improved from lying down after two moves to lying down after four moves, which was a full improvement.
Ren Baqian opened his mouth and blew a bubble. No matter what, he had already advanced from a level two rookie to a level three rookie.
Furthermore, he discovered a problem during this exchange. His ability to withstand blows had also improved. Previously, when Tong Lan's fists hit his body, it was still very painful. But now, it was only slightly painful and much less painful than before.
Tong Lan controlled her strength very well and had always used the same amount of strength. In other words, his ability to withstand blows had also improved by a lot.
Previously, he was seriously injured by the empress's small fists and was on the verge of death. The current him … should only be seriously injured.
