Chapter 63

Yeyuan now had no mood to absorb the mysterious energy; what he most wanted to do was to expel the already absorbed mysterious energy.

He tried to guide it using the qi in his body, but it was of no use.

Yeyuan felt that there was an endless amount of strength in his body, wanting to be released, but he just couldn't do it.

If only he knew martial arts, he could use practicing martial arts to expend this excess energy.

At this moment, Yeyuan suddenly remembered the military boxing he learned during his college military training.

Military boxing should also be a form of martial arts. Yeyuan began to stand on the reef and practice military boxing, one punch and one kick at a time.

With each punch, Yeyuan could feel a faint trace of the mysterious energy being expelled from his body in a very mystical way.

As he practiced over and over again, the restless mysterious energy began to calm down. By the time Yeyuan had practiced five times, the mysterious energy had completely disappeared, leaving only some blackish dirt on his skin.

Yeyuan picked up the two "black stones" and, ignoring Dahuang's dissatisfied cries, walked straight home and took a refreshing hot shower to clean himself.

Lying in bed, Yeyuan began to analyze the series of changes that had occurred today.

First, the mysterious energy in the "black stones" could be absorbed by him.

However, the bloated feeling was really unbearable. Although he later managed to expel the mysterious energy by practicing military boxing, Yeyuan really didn't want to experience that feeling again.

Second, while practicing boxing, he felt the mysterious energy on his fists. If that middle-aged man could break a flower pot from a distance of 2 meters, then he should also be able to do it, but the distance was only a pitiful 1 cm.

Thinking about this, Yeyuan fell into a deep sleep.

...

A few days passed. During these nights, Yeyuan only practiced the "Water Control Technique" and did not absorb the mysterious energy from the "black stones."

Even so, Yeyuan felt that, just like the first time, his cultivation was about to break through. In these few days, Yeyuan increased his cultivation time even more. With only 20 days left until the end of the fishing moratorium, he took advantage of the time to increase his cultivation time every day.

Soon, 10 days passed in Yeyuan's cultivation. On this day, Yeyuan was still practicing with Dahuang by the sea. The already very thin barrier finally broke through under Yeyuan's repeated efforts.

The blurry third level of the cultivation technique gradually became clear in his mind.

Yeyuan did not stop his cultivation because of the breakthrough. Having experienced it once before, Yeyuan began the new cultivation according to the method of the third level.

This level was completely different from the first two levels. To put it simply, the first two levels were all completed within the body, while the third level taught Yeyuan how to release the qi inside his body.

Yeyuan was overjoyed when he saw this. After all, he had cultivated for so long without any means of attack. Previously, his cultivation was more like self-cultivation, focusing on his own body. Only from this level did the qi inside his body finally begin to be released like that of the middle-aged man.

As Yeyuan continued his cultivation, he found that his cultivation technique was very different from the palm strike of the middle-aged man.

The man used qi to directly shatter the flower pot, while his qi, when released, was intangible and had no killing power.

Yeyuan continued to try, and finally, he found the true use of this qi.

The qi in his body, when released, would quickly dissipate. Yeyuan used his perception and discovered that his qi could gather moisture from the surrounding air. However, because the amount of qi released was too small, Yeyuan could only form a needle-sized water needle.

When Yeyuan used his unique perception to control the water needle and strike the reef in front of him, the water needle easily penetrated the reef. After the water needle pierced through the reef, it turned back into gas and dissipated in the air.

"This..." Yeyuan opened his mouth wide, speechless.

The power of the water needle surprised even Yeyuan. If he used this ability to kill, he believed that no matter how advanced the forensic techniques were, they would never find the weapon.

Yeyuan then conducted multiple experiments, both on land and in the sea. The amount of qi released from his body was the same, and the size of the water needle formed was also the same.

However, in the sea, the water needle could attack targets at a greater distance than on land.

After this breakthrough, Yeyuan finally had a means of attack, which would be a useful survival skill in the depths of the sea.

As he gradually learned more about the ocean, he could imagine that there were many terrifying creatures in the ocean that humans had yet to discover.

The last time Yeyuan saw the "plastic bag" at a depth of 1,000 meters, he searched through all the records but found no mention of it.

This was only at a depth of 1,000 meters. The deepest part of the Mariana Trench is estimated to be 6,000 to 11,000 meters deep. At such depths, Yeyuan wouldn't believe there were no large predatory creatures.

These depths were still far from Yeyuan. When his cultivation was at the second level, he could dive to a depth of 2,000 meters. Now that his cultivation had broken through to the third level, he didn't know how deep he could dive. The answer would have to wait until the next time he went out to sea.

Looking up, he saw that the sky was already turning white. This was the longest time Yeyuan had ever practiced, and he had unknowingly practiced all night. Even so, Yeyuan didn't feel the slightest bit tired; on the contrary, his spirit was very refreshed.

...

"Woo—" A low whistle sounded across the dock of Fish Bay Island, and many workers ran over to watch.

A large fishing boat, 55 meters long and 10 meters wide, was docked at the pier. Although the workers were all fishermen, such a large ship was still very impressive to them.

This ship was the one Yeyuan had modified through Xu Hang at the navy.

The ship's body was painted with the prominent words "Yushui Hao" (Water Control).

Wang Husheng was already on the shore helping the people on the deck take their luggage down. Nine people walked down from the ship, all introduced to him by Xu Hang. Yeyuan briefly greeted everyone and instructed Wang Husheng to take these people to the dormitory that had been prepared in advance.

The current crew dormitory had been vacated by Yeyuan. The original robots had been moved into the space to handle the work inside.

The dormitory was now completely empty, with only Ding Yi still living there.

Ding Er and the robot responsible for feed processing lived in two separate single rooms that had been set aside for them.

The workers at the fish farm knew that they were the core technical personnel Yeyuan had brought in and rarely interacted with everyone.

Ding Yi, as the driver of the "Yushui Hao," would live with the crew.

However, Yeyuan wasn't worried about Ding Yi. He usually gave the impression of being quiet, and Yeyuan believed that with Ding Yi's abilities, the crew wouldn't notice anything.
