Chapter 197 Diving
Learning to swim is not too difficult for people with strong spiritual power. Even Tao Linlin is the same. It only took half a day for Long Dangdang, Long Kongkong and Tao Linlin to swim in a similar manner. Especially Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong both have good external spiritual power, and they don't feel tired when swimming in the water. It's quite quick to take control.
Yue Li, Ling Menglu and Wang Changxin also practiced swimming. The most exaggerated one is Wang Changxin, who is both internal and external. This sister, in the water, she definitely feels a bit like riding the wind and waves. If she exerts force underwater, she can shoot out like an arrow.
It was getting late in the evening, and some of the various demon hunting groups were still continuing to practice, and some were even trying to dive. There are also those who light a fire to cook and prepare dinner.
Long Dangdang and the others belong to the latter.
With a magician around, lighting a fire couldn't be easier. A large pot is boiling fragrant pork ribs soup. This is what Long Kongkong brought from the He-style pork rib shop. Sitting around the fire, everyone kept their fingers twitching.
Although with their bodies, the cool lake water is nothing. But looking at the hot soup in front of me, I still feel like my body and mind are being ironed.
"This is the pork rib soup made by my goddess. Let's try it later. The taste is absolutely invincible." Long Kongkong said happily. He has been very generous since he was a child, and he is the type who dances when he has money in his pocket. But he is not only generous to himself, but also to his friends. That's why Ling Xue let her eldest son take care of the money, but didn't give her younger son a penny to take care of.
Tao Linlin smiled and said: "It's really good. It's so fragrant. When can I eat it?"
Long Kongkong said: "Roll it for a while and I will add some lotus root and radish to match. That will be perfect."
Long Dangdang said: "Everyone has almost learned how to swim today. Let me tell you. What’s next?”
Everyone’s eyes were focused on him.
Long Dangdang said to Ming Xi: "Ming Xi, you can dive. Today I asked the Banshee instructor, and she said that it would take eight to ten minutes to pass this level without spiritual power. Are you sure you can pass?"
Ming Xi's face changed slightly and said: "Eight to ten minutes? That means the waterway below is definitely not straight, and there should be twists and turns. It's probably not easy to seal off spiritual power. It's completely different underwater and on the surface. The water pressure will increase by 100% for every ten meters, and the water pressure is quite large, and you have to swim five times. 100 meters, the process will consume a lot of money. Without spiritual support, I am not sure I can make it.”
After hearing what she said, everyone’s expressions became a little solemn. Ming Xi, who even knew how to dive and was famous for his speed, couldn't guarantee that he would pass the test, so what about those of them who haven't even learned how to dive yet?
Long Dangdang nodded slightly, and he guessed that it would not be that easy.
"It's okay. In this case, I asked the instructor. When there is no formal assessment, you can try to pass with spiritual power to explore the water channel. I will trouble you to explore the water channel tomorrow and try your best. Record the overall route of the waterway."
Ming Xi nodded and said: "It will definitely not be difficult if you can use your spiritual power."
Long Dangdang nodded, looked at the others and said: "Everyone will start learning to dive tomorrow. You must learn it within one day. You are not required to be able to reach Ming Xi's level, but you must be able to dive to a depth of thirty meters and swim freely."
Everyone nodded. Ten days is not a short time, but it is not too long even if it is a long time. One day has passed now.
Long Dangdang continued: "We can help each other at this level, but without internal spiritual power, it will definitely not be easy to pass. But external spiritual power will not affect it. So, in At this level, those of us with relatively high external spiritual power have to shoulder more important responsibilities.”
This is their current advantage. Long Kongkong and Ming Xi both had one thousand external spiritual powers, Long Dangdang had two thousand, and Wang Changxin's external spiritual powers were as high as four thousand. This is definitely something other teams don’t have. Especially Wang Changxin's four thousand external spiritual power, which means that even though her internal spiritual power is banned, she is actually still a sixth-level person!
Wang Changxin nodded slightly.
She was already good at swimming, and she had already tried diving with Ming Xi today. She didn’t use her inner spiritual power in the water, so she felt that she should have no problem. Not only does her powerful physique allow her to be fast enough, but the power of her blood naturally allows her to hold her breath for a longer period of time.
"Tomorrow we will have another day of study and rest, and we will be ready to start trying the day after tomorrow." Long Dangdang said in a deep voice.
Everyone was absolutely delighted with the pork ribs soup. Compared with the dry food of other teams, it is much better. Being able to eat such delicious food in such a wild environment made everyone full of praise, and Long Kongkong's face lit up with excitement.
The night is getting darker, and each demon hunting group has established its own station to rest at night. Long Dangdang and the others are no exception.
The others began to rest separately, but Ling Menglu was called out.
"Are you ready to improve your external spiritual power?" Ling Menglu took the initiative to ask before Long Dangdang could speak.
Long Dangdang smiled and said: "My cousin understands me!"
Ling Menglu rolled her eyes and said, "I already understood what you said just now. I will have to rely on you to carry me later. Me, Yue Li and Tao Linlin are definitely the most difficult ones. Our bodies are weak and we don't have With enough external spiritual support, Kong Kong and Ming Xi should be able to force themselves through. So, we have to rely more on you and Senior Sister Wang. You two have the strongest external spiritual power. . But will this affect the improvement of your inner spiritual power?"
Long Dangdang shook his head and said: "No. The requirements for the blood alchemy body are as long as my outer spiritual power. As long as the speed of spiritual power cultivation can keep up with the improvement of internal spiritual power, there will be no problem. My internal spiritual power is now close to 3,900, and I am not far away from the sixth level of external spiritual power. As long as I can improve it quickly. When you reach three thousand nine, you will be able to improve with your inner spiritual power." Ling Menglu couldn't help but said helplessly after hearing his words: "You must not let Senior Wang hear this. She has endured so much pain and spent so much. With so much energy, it took a lot of effort to cultivate to the level of four thousand external spiritual powers. When you are good, the blood-alchemy body is here for you, it is simply a shortcut.”
Long Dang said: "Indeed, the blood alchemy body is really a shortcut for me and Kong Kong. We have accumulated enough dragon blood. I will start practicing today, and Kong Kong and I will take turns. His inner spiritual power is now about 1,000. He can further improve his external spiritual power. This will give us a greater chance of passing the test."
"Okay."
This is also the purpose of Long Dangdang calling Ling Menglu out. Ling Menglu is the only one who knows their secret.
Naturally, there is no such thing as a bathtub in the wild, but this is not a problem for Long Dangdang. The lake water is ready-made water. A hole is dug in the ground to attract some lake water. Coupled with the blood of dragon monsters, it becomes a temporary bathtub. In order to prevent the blood from sinking deep into the ground and wasting it, he used a combination of earth magic and fire magic to make the walls of the pit porcelain to prevent the liquid from being exposed.
Ling Menglu’s holy light protection, coupled with the blocking of some other light magic, was enough to cover the pothole. He told his friends that Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong would take turns to practice the blood alchemy body and sharpen their guns before the battle.
Because Wang Changxin has just been promoted to the sixth level, she cannot continue to practice the blood alchemy body now. She must wait until her inner spiritual power reaches the seventh level before practicing, so as not to delay the progress of her inner spiritual power.
No one has any doubts about the current cultivation of Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong. They just think that their inner spiritual power has reached the edge of the fifth and sixth levels respectively.
The accumulation of dragon blood is really quite a lot. Those monsters that have been tamed before are all the source of blood. Especially the two eighth-level monsters, which are extremely huge beings. Some blood was given to them before. Moreover, the seventh-level blood has an excellent effect on improving the blood alchemy body of Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong at this stage. Long Kongkong couldn't even use too much of such high-level blood. He only needed to mix a little bit into the water to have a pretty good effect on him.
After one night, the external spiritual power of Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong had been greatly improved.
The next morning, we had breakfast. Ming Xi first taught everyone the basic knowledge of diving, and then went to explore the waterways.
There are two most important points in diving. The first is how to maintain the balance between the pressure in the body and the outside world while holding one's breath. Water at different depths has completely different pressures. Generally, when the depth reaches about two meters, ear discomfort will occur. You need to equalize ear pressure. The method of balancing is not difficult. You only need to pour air from the body into the ears to support the eardrums that are concave due to external pressure from the inside to keep the eardrums balanced.
For ordinary people, this is very difficult, because the process of balancing ear pressure needs to be carried out continuously. Every time the depth increases a little, it needs to be balanced, and every time it increases a little it needs to be balanced again. But for professionals like them, even if they are legal professions, their external spiritual power is not comparable to that of ordinary people, especially their mental power is quite strong, and they can control themselves even if they are as weak and tiny as the eardrum. It's not that difficult. Very comfortable in balance.
Therefore, everyone will soon be able to swim freely underwater by holding their breath. When they can use spiritual power, apart from the greater resistance underwater than in the air, they don't feel any discomfort. Instead, I was very interested in the clear lake water.
It is really a strange feeling to see fish swimming away in front of you.
Ming Xi traveled back and forth through the waterway three times before he finally understood the situation of the entire waterway.
While drawing pictures on the ground, he told everyone, "The waterway below is winding and difficult to walk. Moreover, there is no light underwater, so I have to use the equipment to shine to see clearly. But during the actual assessment, it was blocked Our inner spiritual power and equipment cannot be counted on, so we can only write down the water channel. The outlet at the other end of the water channel is in the middle of the mountain. There is a waterway in the middle of the mountain where the water temperature will be lower. It's very cold. Therefore, without strong enough external spiritual power protection, the cold will have a great impact on me. It will take more than six minutes to pass through it even if I use my spiritual power. So, what the instructor said before is true. Some people are conservative. If you want to go through it in eight to ten minutes with the spiritual power blocked, you need to have extremely good physical strength. "
Long Dang said: "We just said. I tried it, and without using the inner spiritual power to adjust the breath, the breath-holding time of Monroe, Tao Linlin and Yue Li was only four to five minutes at most. It should be enough. But if you want to pass the waterway below, it will definitely not take five minutes."
Ling Menglu said with a bitter smile: "This should be a test of willpower as the instructor said. ”
Long Dangdang nodded, looking at the pale faces of the three legal professions, and said: "You should practice holding your breath hard first, and hold your breath for as long as possible. Then we will follow Ming Xi and use spiritual power. Try to explore the water channel below and get familiar with the water channel first. This can save some time as much as possible. According to my idea, we will tie everyone together with ropes to avoid getting lost when the time comes. Ming Xi will explore the way in front. , Senior Sister Wang and I are strong, and we will move as much as possible. The three legal professions only need to hold their breath and maintain their ear pressure, and then don't let anything go. Take action. This will save your need for oxygen and allow you to hold your breath longer."
This is undoubtedly the best way. Everyone nodded.
Ling Menglu said: "Before the assessment, I can try to use magic to help everyone improve their status that day. Blocking our spiritual power will not block our physical status. However, according to your plan, It will be very stressful for the other four of you. You have to dive on your own, and you have to navigate the twists and turns of the water, which is not easy.”
Long Dangdang said: "You don't need to think about this. I just need you to never relax at any time during this process. You must persist until we swim out of the water."
Yue Li vomited on the side Sticking out his tongue, he said: "It is very painful to hold your breath for such a long time! Once you exceed the limit, you are afraid that you will not be able to control yourself."
Long Dangdang said in a deep voice: "With us Even if the physique of a professional exceeds its limit, it will not cause much damage to the body in a short period of time, but we must not be afraid of difficulties in the first place.”
Ming Xi said: "If we are taking you, you should relax your body and mind as much as possible before starting, so as to reduce the nutrient consumption of your body."
