Chapter 327: Instantaneous Travel of Thirty Li, A Powerful Trait!



November 25, 2024

Inside the room.

Looking at the plus sign on the panel, Jiang Ning's hesitation vanished.

As his thoughts stirred, the source energy points on the panel rapidly decreased, freezing at a certain value.

【Source Energy】: 1793.67

At the same time, Jiang Ning suddenly heard the sound of rushing water in his ears.

He saw endless azure waves engulfing him.

As far as he could see, all he could perceive was the deep blue water.

It was the same in every direction.

He felt as if he had become a part of the water, able to see only the water and nothing else, not even himself.

At this moment, he felt a complete fusion with the water, a seamless blending without distinction.

He didn't know how long he had been drifting in this boundless watery world.

It might have been an instant, or perhaps an eternity.

But no matter how long it had been, or how far he had drifted, the scene remained unchanged.

Until a certain moment.

Suddenly, he had a moment of clarity, and a flash of insight crossed his mind.

The next moment, he snapped back to reality, his eyes briefly revealing a trace of weathered wisdom before it disappeared.

【Source Energy】: 1793.67

【Skills】: Aquatic Proficiency (7 Limit Breaks 8000/8000) (Traits: Underwater Breathing, Advanced Water Control, Water Spirit Affinity, Cloud and Rain Manipulation, Water Spirit Body, Grand Quintessence Water Teleportation)



"Grand Quintessence Water Teleportation?" Jiang Ning was surprised to see the newly added trait in the Aquatic Proficiency section of the panel.

His gaze then fell on the description above.

【Grand Quintessence Water Teleportation】: Divine Ability.

The annotation was only six words, but Jiang Ning read it over for several breaths.

"Grand Quintessence Water Teleportation?" he murmured.

Then, he looked out the window.

After that, he closed the panel and walked out of the room.

Opening the door, he saw a ray of morning light painting the eastern horizon with a touch of red.

"Looks like it's going to be a beautiful day!" A smile appeared on his face.

By the lake, the consecutive days of cooling temperatures and snowfall had frozen the lake, and a thick layer of snow covered the ice.

Jiang Ning shattered the ice and stepped into the lake.

The moment he entered the water, he felt a unique sensation.

It seemed that with just a thought, he could completely merge with the lake water, becoming one with it.

At that moment, he couldn't help but recall the scene he had experienced during the limit break.

Although his memory was a bit hazy, he hadn't forgotten the essence of it.

In that endless watery world, he had completely merged with the water, and he didn't know how many years had passed before he woke up.

The next instant, his thoughts stirred, and his figure suddenly vanished in the water, fully merging with the lake.

Relying on his perception in the water, he could see everything within a three-li radius, but he couldn't see his own figure.

In the water, Jiang Ning raised his hand, but still couldn't see it.

Was this what it meant to completely merge with water?

He was stunned by this perfect fusion.

The flawless state of fusion made him instantly think of its near invincibility. In such a state, not only would it be impossible to kill him, but even finding him would be out of the question.

This incredible ability left him in awe.

"Indeed, a Divine Ability!" he marveled.

Then, he felt a sudden weakness in his body, and his figure staggered as he fell out of the merged state.

His face turned pale, and he felt a sense of emptiness and powerlessness.

"The consumption is so high?!" Jiang Ning was incredulous.

He felt that he had only been in the water for a few breaths, but now he was completely drained.

His inner breath was exhausted, his qi and blood energy depleted, his psychic energy weakened, and his body was devoid of strength.

This was a low point he had never experienced before.

After several breaths, nourished by the lake water, he began to feel much better.

"The consumption is truly immense!" He clenched his fist, feeling the emptiness within, and sighed inwardly once more.

Then, he floated quietly in the lake, feeling the nourishing lake water enter his body like a gentle spring rain, replenishing his strength, inner breath, and qi and blood.

After a long while, Jiang Ning finally felt his spirit, energy, and strength fully restored.

【Grand Quintessence Water Teleportation】: Divine Ability.

He glanced at the panel's description once more, his eyes flashing with contemplation, and then closed the panel.

The next moment, Jiang Ning unleashed his psychic energy, and with his control over the water, he observed himself from a godlike perspective, seeing every subtle movement.

Even the slightest ripple in the lake was clear to him.

At that moment, his thoughts stirred, and his figure suddenly vanished from his own observation.

At one moment, he could still see himself.

But in the next, he suddenly vanished without a trace, as if disappearing from the lake's waters.

His very existence seemed like an illusion, one that didn't affect the physical form.

Now, with his body's disappearance, the lake water didn't show the slightest change.

There was no sign of water gushing in to fill the void, as if his sudden disappearance had created a vacuum.

At this moment, relying on his control over the water, he couldn't feel his own existence at all.

It was as if he had completely vanished from this world.

However, through his own senses, he could clearly perceive his continued existence, and that he was still within the lake water.

In an instant, his thoughts moved again.

His figure suddenly appeared out of thin air in the lake water.

Still, there was no disturbance, as if he had always been there.

"This is incredible!" Witnessing his disappearance and reappearance, he couldn't help but be amazed.

Normally, his body's volume would displace the water, causing it to spread outward.

So, when his figure vanished,

The disappearance of an adult's volume in the water would create a vacuum, causing the water to rush in and create a disturbance.

But this time was different.

Whether it was his sudden disappearance or reappearance, there was no change at all.

From this, one could see the profoundness of the Grand Quintessential Water Teleportation Technique, almost breaking the rules of nature.

Then, he sensed his body's condition.

A bitter smile appeared on his face.

After trying it for less than two breaths, he found his body's energy rapidly depleting.

It was a massive drain on his mental, physical, and inner energy reserves.

This indicated that the consumption of this Divine Ability was extremely exaggerated, and in his current state, he couldn't use it for long periods.

After resting for a while,

Nourished by the lake water, Jiang Ning quickly recovered to his peak condition.

"The Grand Quintessential Water Teleportation, this Divine Ability should be a teleportation technique!"

Jiang Ning muttered to himself.

Then, his thoughts moved again.

His figure instantly disappeared from his perception, completely merging with the lake water.

After that,

He moved.

In an instant,

He felt as if he were sitting on a high-speed train, looking at the scenery outside the window, everything was so blurry.

In just a flash, he didn't know how far he had traveled or where he had arrived.

The next moment,

He fell out of this special state and appeared in the lake water.

At this moment, he felt incredibly weak, his body drained of energy, his spirit nearly exhausted, and his inner energy completely depleted.

"This consumption is incredible!"

He quietly felt the lake water nourishing him, and his body quickly recovered in the process.

At the same time, he constantly observed his surroundings.

But the lake bottom looked too similar, and he had no idea where he was.

"I can only wait for my condition to recover and then locate myself on the lake surface!"

With that thought, he patiently waited for his body to recover.

After a long while,

He felt his spirit and energy replenished, his strength restored.

His condition was completely restored.

Boom—

The thick ice layer suddenly cracked open, and the snow rose two to three zhang high.

Amidst the cracking ice and snow, a figure burst out.

This person was Jiang Ning.

After recovering, he shot straight up.

Using the Grand Quintessential Water Teleportation, he covered an unknown distance in a single teleport.

Underwater, he couldn't judge the distance or find his direction for a moment.

But when he reached the ice layer, it was different.

He looked up at the distant dawn's glow and quickly located the direction of his home.

Boom—

Suddenly, there was an explosion beneath him, and the ice layer beneath his feet collapsed.

Using this reaction force, Jiang Ning's body shot up into the sky, leaping over ten zhang in a single bound.

His upward momentum slowed, and his body began to fall.

The inner energy in his dantian suddenly surged.

It flowed along his meridians, rushing into the Extraordinary Vessels below his feet: the Yin Heel Vessel, Yang Heel Vessel, Yin Linking Vessel, and Yang Linking Vessel.

At the same time, countless meridians in his legs were filled with inner energy.

Boom—

His legs descended in the air, and he landed.

White mist gathered beneath his feet, and a visible wave of energy rippled out from where he landed.

Using this support, he leaped forward again.

With each step, a powerful qi wave erupted beneath his feet.

The immense recoil made each step feel like treading on solid ground, propelling his body forward in midair.

At this moment, Jiang Ning experienced true freedom, soaring like a bird in flight.

A sense of exhilaration filled his heart.

Flight, what a liberating sensation!

His inner breath surged, and it was only through today's attempt that he realized he had achieved this feat.

This method of traversing the void required no technique, relying solely on sheer force.

Mighty force brought about miracles, and this was the very embodiment of his soaring flight in midair.

As his proficiency increased, Jiang Ning's speed in the air grew faster and faster.

But after a dozen or so breaths, he felt that the total inner breath in his dantian had decreased by more than half.

"I see it!"

A smile appeared on his face.

From his elevated position, with his powerful eyesight, he could already see the location of his home.

Then, in midair, he turned back to take one last look behind him.

Soon, he located the spot where he had just broken through the ice.

Comparing the two, he was left in awe.

From the place where he had broken through the ice to the chaotic beach near his mansion, the distance between the two, as he estimated, was about thirty li, or around fifteen kilometers.

He remembered that in his previous life, it took him almost half an hour to drive from the city to his hometown in the county.

In other words, with this single use of the Grand Quintessence Water Teleportation, a divine ability, he had traversed a distance that would have taken half an hour by car in his previous life.

"Hiss—"

Changing his perspective and comparison, he sucked in a breath of cold air in midair.

At this moment, he truly felt the terror of the Grand Quintessence Water Teleportation, a divine ability.

This method was akin to a myth.

It far exceeded his comprehension.

Amidst his awe, he began to descend step by step from midair.

A moment later, he slowly landed on the ice layer, standing in his original spot.

Initially, he had planned to return home to measure the distance he had teleported.

But now, with his elevated position, he already knew the distance he had covered.

In an instant, he had crossed thirty li.

With his goal achieved, the purpose of returning home seemed less significant.

"No way!" He shook his head.

"I haven't even informed Big Brother and Big Sister-in-Law about going out. Moreover, Old Turtle has lived for two hundred years, and he must know a lot about Luoshui Lake. I must bring him along when searching for treasures in Luoshui!"

After making up his mind, he took a step and shattered the ice layer, diving into the lake.

With his proficiency in Aquatics, he could move in the water no slower than on land.

Furthermore, after his previous experience of walking on air, he had consumed more than half of his inner breath, and now he needed to enter the water to expedite his recovery.

Breaking through the ice, he entered the water.

His psychic energy surged, and his control over the surrounding water area also abruptly increased.

Within a radius of five li, everything fell under his command.

"As expected, with the improvement in Aquatics, the water becomes an amplifier for my psychic energy field. The more I break through in Aquatics, the larger the water area my psychic energy field can cover."

Jiang Ning nodded in satisfaction.

Then, he opened his personal panel again.

[Essence Energy]: 1793.67

[Techniques]: Firewood Splitting Blade Technique (7 Limit Breaks, 7000/7000) (Characteristics: Touching the Unseen, Blade as Thunder, Blade Handling Like a God, Unity of Man and Blade, Natural Blade Bone)



Aquatics (7 Limit Breaks, 8000/8000) (Characteristics: Underwater Breathing, Advanced Water Control, Water Affinity, Cloud and Rain Manipulation, Water Body, Grand Quintessence Water Teleportation)



Currently, the only technique on the panel capable of breaking limits was Firewood Splitting Blade Technique.

Initially, he had planned to use the remaining Essence Energy points to break the limits of Firewood Splitting Blade Technique, thereby enhancing its combat capabilities.

But now, having experienced the profoundness of Grand Quintessence Water Teleportation, he changed his mind.

Aquatics had already accumulated 8000 experience points, meeting the requirements for the eighth Limit Break.

The only thing lacking now was Essence Energy points.

However, this gap wasn't significant.

According to his calculations, the eighth Limit Break for Aquatics would require around 2000 Essence Energy points, and with his efficiency, he would reach this goal by tomorrow.

Breaking the limit for Aquatics would undoubtedly increase his efficiency in searching for heavenly materials and treasures underwater.

Just like how he could currently control a five-li radius of water.

Yesterday, he could only control a three-li radius.

The additional two li radius more than doubled his search efficiency.

Based on area calculations, it was approximately equivalent to controlling an area 2.8 times larger.

A simple calculation showed that his efficiency had increased by more than double.

Therefore, for Jiang Ning, improving Aquatics was undoubtedly the most valuable choice.

As for enhancing his strength, he wasn't in a hurry.

After making his decision, he promptly closed the personal panel.
