Deep sea, endless darkness.
The inverted blue light mask is like a giant sea bowl, forcing the heavy sea water to open up and protecting the Ancient City ruins at the bottom.
In the center of the ruins, rough stone pillars and collapsed temples surround a huge Submarine Volcano.
Inside Volcanic Crater, a blue light beam tore through Abyss and shot straight into the dome.
In such a magnificent Undersea Peril, a young man sits cross-legged on the edge of the Volcanic Crater, with his eyes closed Entering Samadhi.
High-temperature hydrothermal fluid gushes out along the cracks in the rock formations, turning into hot white steam that rises and swirls around.
The young man's upper body was naked, and the muscles all over his body showed a very rhythmic ups and downs with his breathing. Behind the huge Spatial Vortex, the blue light beam that penetrated Abyss was running at a constant frequency.
From time to time, a few lightning-like energy tentacles peeled off the surface of the light column, wandering in the smoke, trying to touch the man's torso.
But they were all isolated half a meter away by an invisible layer of Aura Field.
"Call"
Fang Cheng slowly opened his eyes, and as his chest rose and fell, he gently exhaled a breath of hot, turbid air.
At the same time, a light blue light screen appeared in front of our eyes, and several Prompt Information passed by one after another.
[You maintained Entering Samadhi in the deep sea Jedi, overcame the interference of extreme claustrophobia and Spatial Fluctuation, and your spirit +0.006]
[You maintained Entering Samadhi in the deep sea Jedi, overcoming the interference of extreme claustrophobia and Spatial Fluctuation, Visualization Experience+8]
[Visualization Iv3(573/1000)]
Not bad.
Fang Cheng looked at the beating value of Panel and nodded slightly.
Visualization Skill is already halfway through Progress Bar, and is not too far away from being promoted to King Grade.
Calculated based on the current advancement efficiency, if we persist unwaveringly every day, we will reach the Qualitative Change breakthrough in two to three months at most.
However, compared with the first time Entering Samadhi was here a week ago, whether it is Skill Experience or Base Attribute, there has been a visible drop in the gains.
This is not because we have encountered a bottleneck, but that our body and mind are gradually adapting to the stimulation mechanism of the underwater environment.
In the past few days, in addition to handling the daily affairs of Sanatorium and Illumination Society step by step, Fang Cheng has focused his main energy on his own cultivation.
Get up on time at four o'clock in the morning every day, use "Silver Key" to cross thousands of kilometers of space Coordinates, and directly land on the Ancient City ruins at the bottom of Changyuan Trench.
The morning exercise plan of more than three hours was extremely compact and rigorous.
Stepping out of the mask protection first, under the heavy pressure of 10,000 meters of Abyss, the special project Physical Training of "Prisoner's Six Arts" was completed.
After the muscle fibers are torn and the physical energy is squeezed to the limit, return to the inside of the mask and cross-legged Visualization next to Volcanic Crater.
Use the Entering Samadhi state to relax your mind and at the same time calm your tired body after high-intensity exercise.
To have such an exclusive training ground that is isolated from the world and where even common sense of physics is subverted is an unimaginable blessing for anyone who pursues the pinnacle of Martial Path.
Fang Cheng Stand up and stretch your limbs.
Along with the action of straightening his back, all the bones in his body made a series of crisp sounds like firecrackers.
He stretched his arms comfortably and glanced around.
The underwater city with a radius of several kilometers, with flat squares and towering stone pillars, is like a super-large arena built just for him.
The upside-down blue light mask is the dome of this training hall.
Fang Cheng looked up along the blue light pillar rising into the sky.
Outside the light shield, billions of tons of pitch-black sea water were like layers of thunderclouds pressing overhead, stripping away all light and life.
Looking at the thick darkness that could not be dissolved, an idea suddenly took shape in Fang Cheng's mind.
If you think about it while sitting on the photomask Insight Meditation, your efficiency will decrease because you are used to a relatively comfortable environment.
What if you go directly through the barrier and meditate in the 10,000-meter-deep sea?
Fang Cheng recalled that more than half a year ago, he traveled to Yong'an Island alone.
At that time, in order to pursue a breakthrough in strength, he dived into the 100-meter-deep Trench cliff, trying to use the "Steal Heavenly Opportunity" method to find opportunities in desperate situations.
That attempt not only allowed Meditation Skill to advance smoothly, but also accidentally unlocked Qi Gong, Exclusive Skill.
At that time, due to the limitations of Physical Body Strength, diving more than a hundred meters was the limit, and any vortex could sweep me away.
Now, the three physical attributes of Constitution, strength, and agility have already fully exceeded the human limit of 80 points Major Milestone.
My body, which has been tempered for many times, has a stress-resistant ability that even surpasses that of Military Submarine, which is made of special Alloy.
Since you can perform high-intensity Physical Training movements on the seabed of 10,000 meters, simple cross-legged meditation is naturally no problem.
The only concern is the mental aspect.
Under the pressure that can instantly crush a main battle tank, you must completely let go of your consciousness and enter a deep Entering Samadhi state.
This is undoubtedly the ultimate test of Willpower's power.
Fang Cheng shook his head, dispelling the trace of weighing in his heart.
At the current level, if you want to continue climbing upwards and make progress faster, you must personally break the so-called "comfort zone".
Sail against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat. The further you go to a desperate situation that is beyond the reach of ordinary people, the more abundant nutrients you can capture.
With his mind set, Fang Cheng didn't hesitate for half a second.
Both knees were slightly bent, and the soles of the feet suddenly kicked off the hard Volcanic Rock.
Bang!
The powerful explosion Exert Force caused spider web-like cracks in the ground beneath his feet, and gravel exploded.
Fang Cheng's whole body was like a Torpedo that escaped from his body, running straight upward along the blue light beam.
In just one second, he crossed a height of nearly two hundred meters and reached the center of the dome.
The moment the top of his head touched the blue light shield, his body did not experience any substantial obstruction.
There was a soft sound of "Boom".
Fang Cheng penetrated the barrier lightly and plunged directly into the eternal Netherworld waters.
The ultimate coldness and silence completed the encirclement in an instant.
The surrounding area fell into pure darkness, and even a trace of free photon was swallowed up, as if falling into the deep sea Prison Cage.
His hearing was almost completely deprived, leaving only the friction sound made when the surface of his body displaces thick water.
What followed closely was the terrifying pressure as heavy as a mountain.
A depth of 10,000 meters means that every square centimeter of skin must bear a full ton of physical pressure.
If we carefully explore the principles, in Hadal Zone, which is demarcated as a restricted area for life by the scientific community, pressure itself is not actually the most deadly threat.
What can truly destroy everything instantly is "Pressure Differential", the irreversible Natural Law.
The reason why the deep-sea Diving vessel requires a thick pressure-resistant shell is because the cabin must maintain normal pressure air for human breathing.
Once there is the slightest crack in the outer shell, the huge gap between the nearly a thousand atmospheric pressure outside and the normal pressure inside will crush the entire cabin into a ball of scrap metal within one hundredth of a second.
If it is a completely solid stone, it will naturally be safe if the forces are balanced.
And those soft-bodied creatures in the deep sea rely on their special structures to fill their bodies with body fluids that have the same pressure as the outside world, so they can swim safely in this desperate situation.
But humans can't.
There are cavity structures in the lungs, intestines and stomach, cranial cavity, and even blood vessels that cannot be eliminated.
Fang Cheng is suspended in the cold and thick undercurrent, and Pure Yang True Qi in the body is running spontaneously like a big river.
An extremely thin layer of Golden Halo emerges from the pores and adheres tightly to the skin surface.
He must rely on the field of precise control to build a Force Field buffer zone on the body surface to forcibly level the huge pressure difference between the internal organs and the external deep sea.
But this is where the most difficult contradiction lies in this challenge.
Visualization requires consciousness to completely sink into the emptiness and clearness, abandoning all distracting thoughts and subjective control.
To maintain the field of resistance to Pressure Differential, Fang Cheng needs to separate part of its consciousness to finely control the output frequency of True Qi.
One yin and one yang, one movement and one stillness.
These are two completely opposite extreme physiological states.
Fang Cheng Stabilize your body, slowly cross your legs in the seawater, and assume a posture with five hearts in the sky Meditative Posture.
He began to try a multi-purpose approach to solve this problem.
With Spirit Attribute and Fang Cheng as high as 74 points, the consciousness is forcibly cut open.
Part of it relies on the instinct of "Water Breathing" to control the rhythm of True Qi circulation.
The other part is slowly immersed in World of Consciousness, trying to push open the door to the realm of emptiness.
It went well at first.
The turbulent undercurrents around him seemed to fade away, and Fang Cheng successfully passed the first stage and entered the level of "Entering Stillness".
However, just as he was about to continue diving and step into the deep "Entering Samadhi", the most Danger backlash came suddenly.
A rare flaw appeared in the mental defense line in the state of split consciousness.
The strange fluctuations that had been dormant in the deep sea took advantage of the situation and directly affected the depths of his mind.
A huge blue Phantom crossed the dimensional boundaries without warning and was projected into Subconscious Mind.
In a daze, Fang Cheng felt that he was no longer wrapped in the cold sea water, but returned to the warm mother's womb.
Surrounded by endless blue, an indescribable sense of comfort spreads from all limbs.
Every cell was cheering for joy, urging him to give up resistance and fall asleep.
The sound of the surging tide echoed in my ears, rising and falling.
A burst of ethereal, deep, mysterious and elegant murmur called the name Fang Cheng.
Mixed with it are countless low chants and prayers worshiping God.
This chorus of voices gathered together like ocean waves, as solemn and majestic as a hymn, shocking the soul.
It seems----
As long as you join in it and follow the chanting and worship, you will immediately gain infinite power and magical Esper Ability power.
At this moment, an ancient and desolate Moo Sound sounded loudly in my mind.
It's like traveling from the distant past, traveling through endless Space-time, and finally arriving here.
The long lingering sound was like the rumble of thunder, making the blue Ocean suddenly tremble.
The call that sounded like a hymn was suddenly struck and became chaotic.
Fang Cheng's heart was shaken, and his eyes suddenly opened.
The Golden Halo on the body surface flickered violently and almost collapsed.
The externally terrifying Water Pressure instantly found an outlet and squeezed violently inward.
Fang Cheng felt a tightness in his chest, and a hint of fishy sweetness welled up deep in his throat, and immediately mobilized True Qi to re-stabilize the defensive barrier.
He was suspended in the darkness with his legs crossed, his brows furrowed, and he quickly reviewed the dangerous situation just now.
failed.
While enduring tens of thousands of meters of Water Pressure and resisting internal and external Pressure Differential, you also have to be distracted to resist the temptation of the call that penetrates your soul.
The superposition of multiple extreme conditions has exceeded the limit of human consciousness.
"We have to find a way to break the situation."
Fang Cheng looked at his own Skill Panel calmly, and his eyes finally locked on an icon that had been neglected for a long time.
[Focus].
Since Spirit Attribute has made great progress, Fang Cheng can easily enter a state of concentration when doing anything.
This initial skill, which required continuous consumption of Mental Energy to maintain its status, seemed extremely useless for a long time and was almost completely idle by him.
But now, it has become the only hope to solve the dilemma.
Multitasking and concentration are not contradictory.
Concentration, as ordinary people understand it, is to abandon all distractions and focus on a single goal.
In cognitive neurology, when faced with two complex tasks that must be carried out simultaneously, the left and right hemispheres of the brain need to independently output two sets of completely different instructions.
For example, draw a circle with your left hand and a square with your right hand.
The two hands do not interfere with each other. You must focus on the left hand glyphs and control the right hand. Your attention cannot be completely focused on one side.
This extreme test of the brain's "distraction control" ability is called Divided Focus in academia.
And maintaining multitasking in multiple desperate situations of 10,000 meters Abyss is exactly the scenario where Divided Focus's ability is best demonstrated.
"Focus Skill, open."
Fang Cheng lowered his eyes slightly and silently gave the order in his heart.
Hum Yi seemed to have an indestructible transparent barrier that suddenly fell down around his body.
The noisy sound of the tides and the deafening whispers of the deep sea that were in my ears just a second ago were completely blocked by the barrier at this moment.
The whole world suddenly became extremely quiet.
The left side of the brain took over the task of resisting Water Pressure, and Internal Breath meshed and operated like precise gears.
The golden True Qi film on the body surface completely stabilized, turning the heavy weight into invisible.
The right side of the brain drove straight in, pulling Fang Cheng's main consciousness and falling into the deep Subconscious Mind like Free Fall.
There was no sluggishness, nor any phantom counterattack.
Fang Cheng crossed the threshold of "Entering Stillness" very smoothly and jumped directly into the deep "Entering Samadhi".
The darkness before my eyes receded like the tide.
In the spiritual world, light suddenly shines.
The surroundings are no longer the suffocating and claustrophobic deep sea, but a fairyland shrouded in clouds and mist.
The breeze blows across the cheeks, bringing a calming coolness Aura.
There was vaguely ethereal music falling from the distant sky, soothing all the irritable thoughts.
Fang Cheng slowly raised his head, and deep in the clouds, he saw the outline of a majestic and majestic palace, exuding Golden Light.
Here is your own, transcendent and interdimensional Inner Scenery World.
At the same time, the light in the void kept flickering.
Countless Prompt Informations are like pouring waterfalls, rapidly refreshing in another dimension.
[You maintained Entering Samadhi in the 10,000-meter Abyss, overcoming unimaginable pressure, Focus Experience+1]
[You maintained Entering Samadhi in the 10,000-meter Abyss, overcoming unimaginable pressure, Visualization Experience+1]
[Your consciousness has been strengthened in the desperate confrontation with Abyss, and your spirit has increased by 0.001]
[Your body has been strengthened in the desperate confrontation with Abyss, Constitution increased by 0.001]
[You hone yourself in ten thousand meters of Abyss, prompting True Qi to operate naturally, Qi Gong experience +1]
Over the Undersea Ancient City, which is more than 10,000 meters deep.
Fang Cheng closed his eyes and crossed his legs, suspended in the absolutely dead dark sea water.
As Visualization continues to deepen, the Pure Yang True Qi that overflows from his body is no longer limited to the close-fitting film.
The golden stream of light gradually turned into a substantial Flames, stretching outwards and intertwining in the sea water.
Finally, a circle of dazzling god Holy Light formed around the back of his head and around his body.
Looking from a distance, in this Abyss hell that even light cannot reach, Fang Cheng looks like a God that has just come into the world with a solemn treasure.
He used the most arrogant and pure physical power to suppress the raging waves of the entire deep sea.
