Chapter 603 - Super Enhancing Pill
He jumped, leaving the blue sky above and into the cerulean sea down below.
It was Jiang Feng’s first time using a parachute in real life. He was nervous and was also quite thrilled.
As he had his goggles on, his face was somewhat morphed by the updraft.
The salty scent of the ocean water was making it hard for him to breathe.
“Chi Shield!”
He had no choice but to use the chi in his body to activate his Chi Shield to resist the force as he dove down.
If he did not activate his Chi Shield, he might get knocked out just by the updraft.
He was aiming at the territory next to the Bermuda Triangle and did not fly directly in, and continued to fall at its edge.
Any aircraft that would fly over from the Bermuda Triangle would be instantly drawn into the sea. If he directly flew in, the moment that he fell into the sea at such a high speed, his body would be completely disintegrated even with his Chi Shield. He would not even be able to open the parachute.
“Huff…… The Bermuda Triangle was indeed quite bizarre. Even when I was attempting to land on its edge, I could sense great danger coming from it!”
Even as he was still gliding at the edge of the Bermuda Triangle, he could sense the obvious difference between inside and outside. He looked at the central region of the Bermuda Triangle and its surface rippled like a swirling whirlpool, it gave him immense pressure.
When he was around three meters away from the surface of the ocean, he opened his parachute.
Whoosh!
The moment that he opened the parachute, he was instantly blown upward by the updraft for another few dozen meters.
Afterward, he began to slowly land on the ocean’s surface.
When he had almost reached the ocean’s surface, he removed the parachute and wore the oxygen mask, and then glided toward the Bermuda Triangle’s region.
Whoosh!
The moment that he entered the Bermuda Triangle, he could sense a powerful gravitational force quickly pulling him down.
Plop!
When he dropped into the ocean’s surface, he lost control of his body as he began to follow the swirling of the whirlpool.
While the whirlpool seemed to be swirling quite slowly when looked from above the ocean, in truth, it was swirling quite quickly to the point of breaking the sound barrier.
“Hm?”
While his body was being pulled down by the whirlpool, he was fully conscious. At this time, he saw something quite shocking.
On the other side of the whirlpool, he saw himself.
As the whirlpool continued to swirl, he could see more and more of himself appearing in the whirlpool. It was extremely weird.
“What is happening? Did my speed break the sound barrier and I saw myself minutes ago? Or is that the me from the future a few minutes later? Time? Space? Relativity?” Jiang Feng thought to himself.
He then remembered Einstein’s theory of relativity. In the book, it was written that when humans could break through the barrier of light, it is possible for them to time travel. As they travel through time, it is possible to see oneself in the past or the future.
T/L Note: Are we really going to talk about science after all of this?
“That should not be possible. If I am really traveling through time, Qingqiu would not be underwater and he would be in another dimension!” Jiang Feng thought to himself after giving it some thought.
Whoosh!
At this time, he had reached the center of the whirlpool. Then, his body had suddenly disappeared from the center of the whirlpool.
He did not travel through time, but he was being pulled into the ocean.
His current location was in the center of the Bermuda Triangle, and his body was dragged straight down outside of his control.
He did not know why, but as he fell, he could not feel the pressure from underwater. There was none at all.
After diving down for about a dozen minutes, he had reached around 9,000 meters in depth under the deep sea.
Only then did he land on a giant slab of stone that had been smoothened and he could feel the pull on him disappear as he stabilized himself in the water.
“Hm? That is……”
And perhaps it was because of the Monster Transmutation System, he had the ability to see in the dark in the real world. However, the distance was quite short as he could only see around 50 meters ahead. Just when he was observing his surroundings, he suddenly noticed that there was a gigantic creature lying in front of him.
Curiously, he carefully swam towards the giant creature.
“Hiss……”
Only when he came close did he notice that the giant creature in front of him was the corpse of a giant octopus. The corpse was still bleeding, and its ink had colored the surrounding water in black.
He looked at the scars left behind by the dragon claws, and he knew that the octopus was killed by Qingqiu.
“I didn’t think there would be such a big octopus in the sea here. I wonder how powerful would the Enhancing Pill that I create from it be?” With that thought in mind, he extended his hand and touched the octopus’s corpse, and began to transmute it.
Whoosh!
A blazing flame appeared in his hand and it began to quickly consume the giant octopus’s corpse as he transmuted it.
As the flames began to rise, his line of sight became wider and he began to observe his surroundings more carefully.
“Oh, gods!” But when he gave it a look, he then regretted his decision of transmuting the octopus.
Gigantic marine life forms were all around him hundreds of meters away.
Gigantic sardines, gigantic sharks, gigantic orcas, gigantic octopi, gigantic lobsters, gigantic crabs, gigantic eels…… No matter where he looked, all the common marine life forms that he could see were dozens, if not hundreds of times larger.
“This place really is quite bizarre!” Jiang Feng thought to himself as looked at those giant marine life forms. He frowned as he took a deep breath.
Perhaps it was the sudden burst of light from the flames and they were all taken by surprise, they did not come near and instead kept their distance.
“Whew……”
Several minutes had passed and the gigantic octopus corpse was finally transmuted into a golden pill the size of a pigeon’s egg. However, it was at this instance that Jiang Feng almost fainted.
It was because of the over-expenditure of his stamina and mental power.
He bit his tongue to force himself to stay awake and then activated his Chi Shield to force the seawater away from him. He then grabbed at the Enhancing Pill that he had just created, took down his oxygen mask, and bit around one-third of it, consuming it.
“Ah!”
After consuming one-third of the golden Enhancing Pill, he could sense pain coming from within the body.
The pain was similar to when he was evolving in the game. It was extremely painful.
After a short while, he was already sweating all over.
However, his weakness was all gone. Instead, he could feel his body filled with energy. So powerful was the energy in him that he could almost feel it burst.
Blob!
At this time, he could hear a quiet crack in his body. Next, a small vortex formed around his body. And all the gas that was created by the vortex as it spun all entered his body, and his aura was getting even more powerful.
“Peak Grandmaster!”
In just less than half an hour, he had already broken through to the peak of Grandmaster. His Chi Shield had also become much stronger, creating a vacuum in a radius of five meters as the seawater could not enter his shield’s radius.
“Whew…… I didn’t expect that the Enhancing Pill that I had just transmuted is that powerful! It has allowed my power to instantly break through to the peak of Grandmaster! This is a super Enhancing Pill!” Jiang Feng said joyfully and in pleasant surprise.
