Facing the sea, it was magnificent.
I stood on the reef on the shore and looked out over the vast sea. I couldn't help but feel a sense of ambition to catch the moon and catch the turtle.
The rumbling sounds were just like muffled thunder, unceasing and unceasing.
There was a letter from the tide, which rose once a day at two in the morning. At this moment, the scorching sun was high in the sky, and the sound of the ocean waves was loud. At a glance, they could only see a white line sweeping towards the shore.
The rising tide was no small matter. Rumble, rumble, rumble. It was as if ten thousand horses were galloping. It wasn't any weaker than the power of thunder.
I licked my lips that had been dried by the sea breeze. Then, I patted the heavy sword by my side. Holding onto the sword hilt, I pull it out.
The moment I dashed out, the line of water had already appeared before my eyes. The vast amount of seawater accumulated like a wall. My expression suddenly changed. I grit my teeth and instead of retreating, I charged forward and struck out with my sword.
"Boom —"
The strong force of the tide pushed me into the water. I felt a salty sensation in my throat, and I immediately choked out two mouthfuls of seawater.
"This tide is truly extraordinary."
I wiped my mouth and once again brandished my sword. Another violent wave of water surged over. I steadied my feet. The true energy in my dantian was released and I struck out with my sword.
"Pa ~ ~"
The heavy sword clashed with the ocean waves, causing splashes.
I steadied myself, the heavy sword in my right hand, to meet the next wave.
Another wave crashed over my head, and I was pushed back a few steps by the force of the impact and was thrown into the water.
Returning back to the shore, I took out a Qi replenishing pill from the ring and started chewing on it. After resting for a moment, he once more entered the sea.
Waves like anger, a confrontation with Raging Waves was the most suitable method for cultivating the heavy sword. Furthermore, if I want to master the first stance of the [Thunderclap Sword Technique] in a short period of time, I would have to do it this way even if I had a natural sword body.
Three Thunder Swords, Thunder Shock, Thunder Wind and Thunder Movement, Heavenly Thunder Eradication. Every move was more powerful and fierce, capable of destroying anything in its path. However, this set of sword technique relied on speed to win. One sword came out of the scabbard like a bolt of lightning, and it belonged to the category of swift swords. To cultivate a heavy sword with a swift sword, when the heavy sword produced a might comparable to a swift sword, that would already be to the point of reaching the level of being able to lift something heavy as if it were light.
I kept swinging my sword in the surf, twice a day at noon.
I repeated this process for a longer and longer time under the onslaught of the ocean tide. My right arm became more and more powerful, and the true energy within my dantian unknowingly became more and more abundant.
On this day, the sea began to surge.
I stood in the sea to meet the raging tide.
In an instant, the high tide was right in front of my eyes.
With a move of my wrist, I brandished the great sword above my head.
"Swish!"
A clap of thunder.
Then a line broke in the middle of the tide. I cut a gaping hole in the high water wall, and the surging tide poured over me from both sides.
Thunderclap, he had finally mastered it!
— —
When I returned to the shore, the true qi in my body surged and evaporated all the water droplets on my body. Then he picked up the robe from the stone and draped it over his body.
Then a voice spoke in my ear.
"Hey!" Young man, what are you doing!? "
I turned to see a middle-aged man in a police uniform walking toward me.
At this moment, I had already kept my great sword in my ring. Looking at the police officer in front of me, I hastily replied, "It's nothing much. I think the day is a little hot and should swim a few rounds in the sea."
"Swimming?" The middle-aged policeman frowned. He pointed to a sign not far away and said, "Can't you see the sign over there that says no swimming?"
My heart skipped a beat as I looked sideways. As expected, there was a "No Swimming" sign.
"There are many reefs and rocks in this sea, and the waters are extremely deep. Moreover, there are also a lot of aquatic plants in the sea. Every year, there would be more than a dozen incidents of swimming and drowning. These people who drowned felt that their swimming skills were very high. That's why swimming is strictly prohibited here. "
I explained, "I didn't swim too far. I came up after soaking in the water for a bit."
"Rules are set to ensure the safety of the people, and as law enforcement officers, we naturally have to enforce them strictly."
".."
I had nothing to say to that.
In the end I was fined fifty dollars before I left.

Cultivating was a matter of no age. Nearly half a month had passed since he started practicing the sword in the sea. Today was finally the day he had agreed upon with Tang Lang.
Early in the morning, I woke up Wang-hu and drove to meet Tang Lang. I wanted him to think it was worth it to hire us for thirty thousand yuan.
The Clear Wind Teahouse is the place where we agreed to meet.
When he got to the second floor, he saw two people sitting in front of a table. There was also a teapot and four or five cups on the table.
"Brother Lang!" I went up to say hello.
"You brat, you're quite punctual!"
Tang Lang stood up to greet me and thumped me on the chest.
"Heh, I've been entrusted with the matter of loyalty. "After all, this money wasn't spent for nothing!"
"I didn't expect that the service quality of your Celestial Immortal Temple was so good."
"Of course."
"Alright, let's cut the crap and sit down. Wang Hu, you sit as well. "
Tang Lang stopped and led the two of us to our seats.
"This is?"
I glanced at the person sitting next to me.
He saw a square shaped face with thick eyebrows and big eyes. It was unknown whether it was a faint beard that had grown on its lips on purpose, or a beard that had not been shaved clean. He looked to be about forty years old, dressed in a well-ironed Chinese tunic, and his entire person looked meticulous.
"This is Xu Cheng. "We are the vice captain of the Yan Huang Special Task Force in Wuling." Tang Lang introduced us before turning to me and Wang Hu, "These two are the helpers I've invited this time, Shen Can and Wang Hu."
"Oh!" So it was Captain Xu! It's been a long time, a long time! "
I smiled, showing eight standard teeth.
Speaking was actually a skill. It was as if I had inadvertently flattered him by omitting a side character. The official most hated the word 'subservient.' [Previous Chapter] [Table of Contents] [Next Chapter] Although the vice captain had one word more than the captain, this was not a word comparison. The vice-captain made people feel like they were being suppressed.
"Right."
Xu Cheng sipped his tea and gave me a slight nod.
I was slightly unhappy in my heart, but I didn't pay much attention to him. I just categorized him as being cold.
At this moment, Wang Hu turned to Tang Lang and asked, "Tang Lang, who is your captain?"
Tang Lang narrowed his eyes and smiled. "It's just me."
I smiled. "Brother Lang, you can be a captain with such a sloppy manner."
"Humph!" As soon as I finished speaking, Xu Cheng snorted coldly and said, "Captain Tang, important matters are more important. If you want to reminisce about the past between your friends, you can talk about it after we're done! "
My face turned cold. This guy was truly conceited and didn't know what was good for him.
I was about to explode when I saw Tang Lang's hand under the table press down on me. He gave me a wry smile before quickly tidying up his face and saying, "Alright, let's talk about the operation this time. Our enemy this time is no small matter, he is a member of the Demonic Sect's Great Palace. There were a total of six people, among them was the Young Noble Ji Yue, Zhao Hange. Thus, he couldn't afford to be careless in this mission. I think everyone should know about the evil cult's methods. A moment of carelessness can lead to death and complete destruction. "
Wang Hu and I nodded cautiously.
"In that case, let's talk about the battle planning. Everyone can give us any suggestions you have."
Xu Cheng said, "Of the four of us, three are at the Earth Realm and one is at the Human Realm. Captain Tang and I are both low-level Earth Realm experts, and this Mr. Wang is a high-level Earth Realm expert. Of the six people, two were in the Earth Realm and four were in the Human Realm. Zhao Huan Ge might have already reached the Earth Realm Middle Rank, so Mr. Wang had to suppress him. Captain Tang could fight against one Earth Realm warrior, while Mr. Shen and I could fight against the rest. What do you think of the following? "
Tang Lang muttered to himself for a moment before saying, "It's feasible."
I looked at Xu Cheng and slowly said, "That's so natural."
Xu Cheng narrowed his eyes and a light flashed in them. He stared at me and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Danger!" I explained, "Two of them are in the Earth Realm while four are in the Human Realm. These were only the results of the intelligence report. There was no specific confirmation. A small mistake could be a fatal blow, and we can't afford it. Furthermore, Brother Lang once said that Zhao Huan Ge could not be judged by ordinary people. Even though there was a huge gap between high-grade Earth Realm and mid-grade Earth Realm, it was only a quantitative difference and not a qualitative leap. It was not a gap that could not be crossed; even magic treasures and Tao techniques could make up for it. Therefore, Wang Hu might not be able to suppress him. "
Tang Lang nodded. "That makes sense. I was indeed careless." "Ah Can, I wonder if you have any good methods?"
I asked, "Have you all heard of the Tasmanian horse race?"
Tang Lang continued, "Now we will take the Lord's Head and the Lord's Head, and the Lord's Head and the Lord's Head, and the Lord's Head and the Lord's Head will be the Lord's Head and the Lord's Head."
"Now we are really going the other way. The tiger is the strongest of the four of us, fighting to kill four Human Realm warriors in a moment. The four of them were in the Human Realm, so it would be troublesome if they had some sort of combination attack. Brother Lang, you and Vice Captain Xu block Zhao Hange. And I can hold another field for a moment. After getting rid of the four Human Realm warriors, Tiger immediately came over to support me. After getting rid of the one Earth Realm warrior, we'll be able to fight against Zhao Hange with all our might.
"Your idea is good, but are you sure you can hold off an Earth Realm expert?"
After I mastered the Thunderclap, I am very confident in my abilities. Moreover, I was already half a step into the Earth Realm. I only need to wait for the Wind and Fire Tribulations to descend before I can immediately form my core.
It's just that I have never been in the habit of sticking my hot face to someone's cold butt, so I only pay attention to Xu Cheng's doubts.
Seeing that I didn't pay any attention to him, Xu Cheng's face turned cold and he harrumphed furiously.
Tang Lang smiled awkwardly and said, "Vice Captain Xu has such a straightforward personality. Don't take offense to him, Ah Can." However, this mission is not ordinary, and as you said, no mishap is allowed. So let me ask you again, are you sure? "
I solemnly said, "Although money is good, one's life is more important." I won't play with my life. "
"Ha ha!" Xu Cheng laughed, his smile full of ridicule: "Young man, you have such a big mouth when you're young, before you do anything, you have to consider your own strength, if you overestimate yourself, it will lead to your demise."
If there were more trees, there would be more branches. If there were more people, there would be more idiots.
I didn't understand this before, but now I do.
I lifted my eyelids slightly, and at the same time, I extended my sword fingers and pointed a finger at Xu Cheng. A ray of black light shot out from the ring, turning into a heavy sword that stopped right at Xu Cheng's throat.
When I saw Xu Cheng's pale face and the sweat flowing down his body, I couldn't help but laugh. "As long as my sword advances one more point, you will die. Earth Realm and Jindan Stage aren't anything special!"
"Alright, Ah Can, retract your sword." Vice Captain Xu was also a little worried that this mission would fail. Since everyone was together, they had to work together and not hurt their relationship. It can be said that we have become friends without fighting, so how about we just be friends? "
Xu Cheng swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva, leaned his body slightly backwards, and laughed dryly: "Yes, yes, if you don't fight you won't be able to get to know each other. Everyone, let's be friends."
I withdrew the heavy sword in my hand, my tone filled with unprecedented iciness.
"Forget about making friends, there are so many people that want to make friends with me .. You, count as that spring onion?"
