I Have A Martial Dao World

Chapter 453: 453. Deep Sea Practice

The agreement was signed, and domestic major satellite TV stations as well as social media giants immediately began viral marketing campaigns to maximize their profits.

But in fact, it didn’t require much of an advertising push; the news that Blue Star’s only superman, the immortal, was going to start a live broadcast spread across the country in just one hour, and across the globe in less than three hours.

It was exactly 1 p.m., and Blue Star’s people immediately leveraged their initiative, overcoming a series of challenges such as work, study, and time differences, to squat in front of their screens ready to enjoy the big show.

Amidst much anticipation, Lu Yao arrived at the sea area between the two countries.

During the outbreak of that world war, He Kingdom had 174 ocean-going submarines, of which 130 were sunk!

In the final stages of the war, as He Kingdom’s desperate struggles prevailed, it crazily plundered wealth from Xia Country to offset its own losses, which inevitably included the most precious gold.

Now, these treasures lay asleep at the bottom of the ocean, waiting to see the light of day once again.

“Let’s place this buoy-style base station on the surface of the sea…”

Lu Yao placed a hat-shaped buoy on the surface of the water, which was also equipped with solar panels.

Having set up the signal transmission and reception devices and turned on the onboard cameras of the unmanned submarine, the live broadcast began.

As he waved to the camera, all of Blue Star instantly became abuzz.

[The superman is really live streaming!]

[The theme of this live broadcast is deep sea exploration and treasure hunting!? What exactly is he going to do]

[Mind your own business when it comes to what immortals do]

At that moment, Lu Yao clearly felt a surge in the density of willpower, and the proportion of positive willpower had increased significantly.

“Is starting a live stream really that effective…”

He was somewhat surprised, as the matter of willpower was just a byproduct, and he hadn’t expected such impressively good results.

Lu Yao had vastly underestimated his own influence on Blue Star.

It could be said that no one in history had ever been more famous or more captivating.

“Looks like I need to be more serious in a bit.”

Lu Yao gave a gentle smile to the camera, then dove into the sea with the unmanned submarine following behind him.

~~~~~~~~~~

This deep-sea journey’s primary goal was, of course, cultivation, which is the fundamental basis for survival in both worlds.

Among the scriptures contributed by the Joyful Sect was a bamboo scroll titled “Chronicles of Continued Marvels,” authored by the famous Spring and Autumn Warring States period alchemist “Zheng Boqiao,” which described his experiences cultivating in the deep sea.

He believed that the pressure of the deep sea would cause immense pain to cultivators, but if they persevered, both their physique and spirit would be greatly tempered and they would reap tremendous benefits.

Recalling the contents of the scripture, Lu Yao descended rapidly.

His body contained immense strength, with an overall exertion of nearly 11 tons, now transformed into a mighty driving force!

With a kick of his legs, Lu Yao shot through the water like a torpedo, his clear trail evident as he raced 300 meters ahead.

This speed was too much for the unmanned submarine to keep up with, so Lu Yao, agile like a fish, swam behind the submarine and pushed it downward.

The aperture points of his governor and conception vessels also opened automatically, absorbing oxygen from the seawater.

At a depth of 200 meters below the sea, he was in the most wondrous and magnificent part of the ocean.

Colorful marine life was abundant, many fish species had never seen humans, approached curiously, and allowed Lu Yao to stroke them without resistance.

At this distance, the unmanned submarine was able to transmit a 4K signal, and the audience clearly witnessed all this, expressing their amazement.

[It’s so beautiful, and look—superman can actually breathe underwater!]

[He’s more agile in the water than I imagined, his speed is on par with a torpedo]

[He’s definitely not here just to enjoy the scenery, looking forward to what’s going to happen next]

Lu Yao played around for a little while before he continued with his journey, plunging into the depths of a thousand meters with the aid of super-fast mobility.

This depth is the limit for nuclear submarines; no matter how sturdy and thick the pressure-resistant shell is, it cannot withstand the increasing pressure of the deep sea.

Lu Yao moved around and felt that it was manageable, akin to an ordinary person carrying a 10-kilogram weight, so he swam toward even deeper regions.

As he dived deeper and deeper, first the light disappeared, the water temperature plummeted, and signs of life gradually vanished; the once vibrant world became a silent expanse of death.

By now, at a depth of two kilometers, Lu Yao finally felt a long-lost sense of fatigue under the enormous pressure of the sea.

It was then that he saw a sperm whale swimming past him, its 18-meter-long body moving leisurely.

The highest diving record for nuclear submarines isn’t even 1300 meters! The fact that a sperm whale, a creature of flesh and blood, could live so leisurely here is a marvel of nature’s creation that demands admiration!

~~~~~~~~

Having reached the bottom of this section of the sea, Lu Yao moved a distance deeper, arriving at the seabed three kilometers down.

The pressure there felt intense, like when he was still a mortal carrying a gas cylinder, with a sense of laborious movement.

“This is far enough, let’s start from here,” he said.

Lu Yao’s Divine Soul then left his body, followed by the appearance of his spiritual projection.

The towering spiritual projection shone faintly in the pitch-dark sea bottom, providing a sliver of light in this place.

With the aid of this light, the unmanned submarines were able to work better.

At this distance, they could only transmit blurry visual signals, similar to the video quality of the old Nokia phones.

The audience watching the live stream still had no idea what Lu Yao was up to. @@novelbin@@

Immediately after, Lu Yao began his plan.

His body and Divine Soul took separate paths:

The body utilized the sea pressure for Tri-Cultivation; meanwhile, his Divine Soul opened the Heavenly Eye, scouring the seabed for sunken ships.

This way, Lu Yao immediately felt a double dose of agony.

The normally intangible and unconscious Divine Soul started to become unstable and fluctuate under the oppression of the intense sea pressure.

Dizzy and with blurred vision, Lu Yao quickly strained himself to stabilize.

But his body was also in considerable distress, feeling as if it were being compressed underneath a road roller, with every bone and Aperture Point about to be flattened.

Lu Yao gritted his teeth and forced himself to endure, realizing that this was an excellent opportunity to push his limits, an environment not available on land.

Despite the agony, the effects of cultivation were indeed indisputable.

Innate is about opening Aperture Points; the Jin Wulou Realm is about closing them, creating one’s own world.

Between this opening and closing lies the “Cultivation of Apertures,” with the ultimate goal of making the Aperture Points “breathe.”

At this moment, withstanding the terrifying sea pressure, Lu Yao used True Qi to refine his Aperture Points while drawing oxygen from the seawater, his body strained to its limit.

After persisting for a while, he suddenly felt that each of the previously unified Aperture Points became distinctly felt and came under his control.

The first to be controlled was the Tanzhong Acupoint at his chest, which is also the first place most people learn to control.

With a single thought from Lu Yao, this vital point in the human body closed like an eye!

Although it lasted for less than a second, he was overjoyed!

“The first step is always the hardest; once taken, the path ahead is clear! When I can fully control all 720 Aperture Points around my body, that will be the time I enter the Jin Wulou Realm,” he thought.

“I have plenty of gold; reaching the Golden Body Realm will surely be within my grasp. Then, by nourishing my Divine Soul with my physical body, a breakthrough in the Spirit Refinement Realm is within reach!”

The more Lu Yao thought about it, the happier he became, and at that moment, his Divine Soul scanning the seabed like radar with Heavenly Eye made a discovery!

Fifteen kilometers to the southeast, there lay a submarine sunk at the bottom of the sea!
